Missionary Troubles.
Berlin. April ia semi-oficial
statement was given to the German
press during the day regarding the
complaint of the American board of
foreign missions to the state depart
ment at Washington on the subject of
the harsh treatment which a number of
native students of the American mis-
sionary establishment on the island of
Ruk, OF the Caroline group, were sub
jected to by the captain of German
warship, who deported them to the ISL
and OF Ponape, of the same group. The
arrest of four pupils is admitted, as is
their transportation on board the Ger
man cruiser Cormorant to Ponape.
Immediately upon receipt of this news
in Berlin an investigation was Or
dered, but owing to the great distance
of the Islands from here the result of
the inquiry has not been reported,
hence it is impossible to judge the
merits of the case. The statement fur

has not yet made representations in
the matter to the foreign Office. The
latter assumes that the pupils have
already been liberated.

GRANTS THEIR DEMANDS.
Northern Pacific Makes Concessions
to Trainmen.

st. Paul, April 16.-An agreement
was signed Tuesday afternoon which
settles the differences between the
general officers of the Northern Pacific
railway and the committee represent
ing the trainmen.
By the terms of the agreement the
freight trainmen will get an advance
of Is per cent in wages and the passen-
ger trainmen IL per cent. There will
be no double header trains run except
in two districts, and there an agree
ment with the men who will run the
helper engines has been reached.
The scale of the yardmen in Chicago
was raised half cent above that of
the st. Paul yardmen.
This agreement is much the same as
that reached by the men with the Great
Western, Southern Pacific, Santa Fe
and Union Pacific, and the arrange
ment with the Great Northern and
Omaha will be the same.
By the agreement more than 1,500
men who are in the employ of the
Northern Pacific railway are directly
benefited, and by reason of the fact
that the same terms will be asked OF
the Omaha and the Great Northern,
more than 5000 men are directly or in
directly affected by the decision just
reached.
The settlement is the matter OF much
satisfaction to the men. They have
been in st. Paul four months nego-
tiating.

Japanese and Chinese Miners to Be

Denver, Colo, April 16.-The News
says:
The Western Federation of Miners
is contemplating movement quite
new in the way of labor unions. They
may organize the hosts of Chinese and
Japanese employed in the mines and
shelters of the Northwest and Brit
ish Columbia. w. d. Haywood, secre-
tary of the federation, says they are
willing to become organized and afil-
lated with the federation and that the
American miners, who, he says, refuse
to work with nonunion men of their
own nationality, have concluded that
there is no reason why they should
forego their principles in the case OF
the Chinese and Japanese. Besides,
Secretary Haywood says, these foreign
ers have frequently shown themselves
to be in sympathy with unionism and
have sacrificed their own interests in
aid of cause where, there was nothing
to influence them other than their SYM
patty.

Chicago, April 16.-A dispatch to the
Tribune from New York says:
Plans have just been consummated
for the immediate completion of line
of railway in Central America, extend
ing from the Atlantic to the Pacific
coast, which, it is believed, will have
the effect of diverting large share of
the Central American exports from
foreign ports to those of the United
States. The coffee output alone aver
ages 100000 bags annually, of which
almost the entire amount is shipped
to Hamburg and other European ports,
due to the difficulties in transportation
to the Atlantic seaboard.
The new railroad is to have it's ter
minal at Puerto Barrios. The freight
will be carried by way of the gulf to
Pensacola or New Orleans and it will
reduce the time of transportation from
two months to two weeks. Already
lao miles of road are completed.
