New York. June 3.-The Press to-mor-
row will say that one tremendous con-
solidation of all the railroads operating
between the Mississippi river and the Pa
cihc coast. promises to result from a set
tlement of the differences which caused
the Northern Pacific corner.
The Press will say that It 'is able TO
announce on the highest authority that
not only have the differences been set
tied between the Morgan Hill faction.
and the Hartman party regarding the
Burlington deal aud the relations OF that

assurance that they must wait and see.
Facts will tell the tale in good time
I'm Mr.. Hills simple expression is the
whole truth in a nutshell. The agreement
regarding the controversy over the con-

that that property will remain under the

Stillman interests, owns the majority OF

American products to the far east"

Paris, June BIN the Chamber of Depu-
ties to-day NJ. DesTournelles de Constant
asked the Foreign Minister, M Delcasse,
for a statement on the Chinese situation.
In the course of his remarks the deputy
alluded to American competition, saying
the American peril was advancing to-
wards them with methodical rapidity The
Napoleons of American industry have de-
clared openly that their enterprise meant
the conquest of Europe and their eco
nomic ruin.
The yellow peril was more distant
than the American peril but the Chinese
had given a warning which ought not to
be neglected.
M. Delcasse replied in a reassuring man
ner regarding China. He said the French
troops would leave ait the earliest possi-
Bile moment. Two patches had already
been ordered home, and he hoped the bulk
of the expedition would soon follow. The
Powers only insisted on measures of JUS
tice, having the character of reparation
for the past and guarantees for the fu-
ture.

FRIENDLY TRADE RIVALRY.
New York Delegates Tell Britishers
There Is Plenty for Both.

London June 4.-The Daily Chronicle
prints a long interview with John T.
Terry and A. Foster Higgins of the New
York delegation, the gist of whose con-
versation was that there is ample busi-
ness to keep both the United States and
Great Britain occupied so long as they
wish to be, and that there is no idea in
the United States of anything but friend
ly trade rivalry. Commenting editorially
upon these declarations, the Daily Chron-
icle says:
"a needless wave of pessimism and de-
preston is flowing in England about
trade, which obstnately refuses to be de-
pressed. British trade is growing quite
as fast as American or German"

O'CONNELL'
GROWTH OF MACHINIsTs DURING
HIS TERM.
MANY STRIKE ORDERS ISSUED.
HE DESIRES TO RESTRAIN LOCAL
UNIONS.

He Discusses the Nine-Hour Move
ment and Expresses Belief That IL
Will Reduce Working Hours OF
10000 Mnchinists-The Matter or
General Movement on This Line
by the Railway Machinists of the
Country to he Taken Up at an
Early Date.
Toronto. Ont, June 3.-The annual con-
vention of the International Association
of Machinists opened here to-day. About
200 delegates were present Mayor How
land, on behalf of the city, extended cor
dial welcome to the visitors and expressed
the hope that the strike would be settled
to their satisfaction.
In his annual address, President O'Con-
nell showed that during the past two
years 1877 charters were issued with
membership of 7404. During his term the
executive had approved of sixty-six
strikes, involving $3.50 machinists, of
which forty-one were won, fifteen settled
on compromise, and ten lost. The locals
engaged in 246 strikes, involving 12,l92
men. Two hundred lodges reported hav-
ing settled 595 grievances without a strike.
Increased rate for overtime had been OBJ
tained in 100 shops. The president asked
that the law be changed so as 10 compel
local unions before striking to obtain the
consent of the grand lodge. Regarding
piece work the address recommended
either to accept 1t on condition that the
employer will unionize his shop or to de-
clare war against the entire system.
"A reduction in the hours of labor has
been our hope since the association start
ed, continued the president. Up to May
/ the number of shops working less than
ten hours per day was only 1870 i am
firmly convinced that our nine hour move
ment will result in reducing the hours of
labor for 10000 machnists."
To Organize Railways, Also.
Machinists employed in the railway SER
vice have been more than anxious to take
part in the movement on May 20, but we
have felt that many roads could not be
sufficiently prepared by that date. and
have advised against such move taking
place, except in special cases. Very great
progress has been made for the past three
months by our organization with the rail-
way machinists, aud l recommend that
a date be set for the inauguration of the
nine-hour day for machinists employed
in the railway service.
President O'Conneli promised to bring
in supplemental reports on the strike
question during the convention. He also
recommends that the minimum monthly
dues be placed at 10 cents, So cents of
which Is to be paid to the grand lodge.
number of changes in the loan system,
insurance, sick benefits and constitution
in general. are recommended.
The remainder of the business session
was of a purely routine character. The
question Of the regularity OF the strike of
the New York machinists at Depew will.
President o'Connell stated be considered
by the convention.

A CHANCE FOR MRS. M'KINLEY.
Hope of Slow Improvement Held Out
ny Distinguished Physicians.

Washington, June S.--Hope of slow inn
provement in Mrs. McKinleys condition
was held out by the attending physicians
after an hours consultation this morning.
in which DR.. William Osler of Baltimore
Joined. DR.. Osler is a professor in the
medical department of Johns Hop
kins University and has a ma
tional reputation as a diagnostician. lie
was called in to add his knowledge and
skill to that of the other three physi-
clans, and the result of the consultation
is considered encouraging. Mrs. Mckinley
had a comfortable night after a rather
bad day yesterday, and DIR. Rixey did not
arrive at the White House until 9 O'clock
this morning. Shortly after 10 o'clock he
was Joined by Surgeon General Stern
berg and DR. johnson and n little later
by DR.. Osler, who had been summoned
from Baltimore They remained in con-
sultation until II O'clock and fifteen min
utes later Secretary Cortelyou gave out
the following statement:
"Drs. Rixey, Sternberg and Johnston
were Joined by DIR. Osler of Baltimore In
consultation at 10 a. m, and report that
Mrs. McKinleys condition is as favora BILE
as could be expected. There is no imme-
diate apprehension and a slow improve
ment is looked for"
The statement that there is no fmme-
diate apprehension, coupled with prospect
for slow Improvement. caused some re-
lief to the many anxious inquirers who
called at the White House for news from
the sick room. Secretary Hay called on
his way to the State Department to in
quire, and Ambass ssador Cambon came per-
sonally to offer to the President his SYM
pathy aud hope for Mrs McKinley's early
restoration to health. The President was
distinctly more cheerful after the physi-
clans had announced the result of their
consultation.
Her Complaint Checked.
DR.. Rixey after remaining in the White
House for nearly three hours tonight.
said that there had been no change in
the condition of Mrs. Mckinley. At IL
o'clock she was resting comfortably.
The complaint which manifested itself
while Mrs. Mckinley was away from
Washington end which has so seriously
sapped her strength, has been checked
but its effect has been to leave her in
very weak condition. At the White
House tonight there is a very slight in
crease in cheerfuIness and the hope is ex-
pressed that Mrs. Mckinley may again
give evidence OF the great vitality she
has displayed heretofore. There will be
another consultation of the physicians in
the morning.

Farm, with the exception of very
few trees, the great majority Of the
scale was killed." He then refer
red to the owner of the famous
Pawpaw orchard in West Virginia.
who treated 10000 trees ty fumi-
cation, at an average cost of six
cents per tree, and considered it a
complete success, being thoroughly
satisfied thgt he had killed the
scale. In one or two instances, he
had used cyanide of potassium
that was only about 60 per cent
pure; when it should have been
over 80 per cent, and it was found
necessary to give the trees SO fumi-
gated a second treatment; these
trees were injured slightly, but not
seriously. He also said: ''If it
costs only six cents to fumigate a
tree, and three cents to spray it
three times year, the cost tor two
years would be the same for each
treatment as you W )uld not need to
fumigate the second year, and be-
sides you would not, by fumigat-
ing as by spraying, injure the
trees" Mr.. VanLindley replied that
if any one was willing to take a
contract, for fumigating his orchard
at six cents per tree, he would
give him the contract and pay
him as soon as the work was COM
pleted; he stated also that he be-
lieved chat if the fumigating was
done properly, and at the right
season, every scale would
be killed.
H. P. Bilyue, referring to the
with which the scale will
spread. stated that last winter
there were only 3 or 4 infected
trees in his orchard and that now
there were over 800; he stated his
willingness to fumigate if the other
growers would do so. John Hut
tenhauer said: "If [ had been
able to save the trees which [ kill
ed by spraying, | would now be
away ahead Of the cost Of fumigat-
ng. The trees | kill ed would
easily have yielded me $4,000 had
been able to kill the scale with
mt injuring the trees"
Attention was called to the exis-
ence of number of abandoned or
