and most unwonted mirth issued from
the d ark room of Madre Maria, who,
while not ordinarily q merry person
age, seemed nightly amused over
something.
Never in his life had the astonished
Carlos been mere kindly and generous

days. Dona Antonia seemed to think
that nothing was good enough for him,
and, filing his pockets with coins, fair
ly pushed him into the streets, with
injunctions that he enjoy himself with
his companions. Had the torero been
a suspicious man t., he might have
thought Dona Antonio was engaged
in secret pursuits of which she wished
him to know nothing. Not being sus-
picious, however, he hastened to obey
her commands and have a joyous time.
AS a matter of fact, there was moth

SOCIALIST LABOR IDEAS
j. r.. PEPIN, OF CHICAGO, IN THE
CITY TO MAKE A SPEECH.
Came to Fill Appointment Made for
j. r. MaIoney, Candidate for
President-PolificalN Notes.

]. r. Pepin, of Chicago, one Of the I'LL
nois congressional candidates on the So
cialist Labor party ticket. delivered an ad-
dress last night from the south steps Of the
monument Mr.. Pepin came 70 nil the
engagement of ]. f. Maloney, the Socialist
Labor party's candidate for President. Mr..
Maloney has been i'll and was unable to
I'LL the appointment. Mr. Pepin wants II
distinctly understood that his party has
nothing to do with the Socialist Demo-
cratic party, of which E. ". Debs is at the
head. I'VE have nothing to do with the
Social Democrats" he said yesterday. I'm
that party Mr.. Debs is the first, middle and
last letter. He is surrounded by troop Of
ex-Populist lawyers and medical parsons
who cherish the vain hope of getting there
on his remnant of prestige"
Mr. Pepin says the Socialist LABOR people
in 1892 polled 1900 votes In 1896 their forces
had increased to 5000, and this year they
hope to poll a vote of at least 10000 The
Socialist Labor party, Mr.. Pepin says. is
arrayed against the two great candidates,
and they have no choice as between Nc
Kinley and Bryan. Mr.. Mckinley, To their
way of thinking, represents the capitalistic
element which is inimical TO them under
the present conditions of society. On the
other hand Bryan represents the "impos-
SiDle, ana, as Mr.. Pepin puts H. might 90
all sorts of foolish things" with his party
in power. Bryan's howls against the trust
evil amuses the Socialist Labor party. The
leaders think the attitude of the Bryanites
against trusts Is absolutely ridiculous
They believe that Ii is absurd TO talk of
doing away with trusts. Their idea is to
bring things about SO that trusts will OPP
crate for the good Of the working classes
well the wealthy. In other words
they want trusts and combines" managed
SO that every laboring man will hold one
share in them. Mr.. Pepin explains that by
the working classes is meant all those
who live by the sale of their labor power
be ii intellectual or manual.
1.-The Socialist" said Mr.. Pepin, claims
that all tn ills from which the social or
ganism suffers are occasioned by the con-
dition existing between the social form
of production and the individualistic mode
of appropriation. The Socialist claims that
these can be done away with only when the
wealth that is to-day the result of collec-
tive effort is owned collectively"

CONTEMPT FOR HIGGINS.


John NJ. Higgins. the Fifteenth ward
Democratic councilman. has returned to the
city after a brief sojcurn at Martinsville,
where he went after the first broadsides
had been fired at him on his alleged ability
to furnish protection TO gamblers. Higgins
says he will not talk on the question and
denies that he ever furnished protection to
any gambler. He claims that Mayor Tag
CART and Superintendent OF Police Quigley
have too much sense TO enter into any such
scheme. Higgins is firm In his denials of
the stories afoat concerning his many
methods of obtaining money as he was in
declaring he could furnish the required pro-
lection TO gamblers. One OF the stories he
denies Is the allegation that he approached
ID. NJ. Parry and offered TO get switch or
dinance through the Council If Mr. Parry
gave him $50. Mr. Parry says it is true.
The denials Of the story OF his intention TO
furnish protection has not caused the feel
Ing against him by other Democratic Off
cials to subside in the least and he is still
held In contempt by them.
