outlined this plan to the President, and it met with his approval. Jlr. Catchings "would say little as to his talk with the President. He regarded it as settled, howtver, that the bill wouM become a law next .Monday midnight without the President's' signature. Mr. Catchinc also inclined to the belief that the President would send a tnfssaire to Congress on the subject. It Is aid that while a msa;" on a measure pot signed or vetoed would be unusual, it mould-be entirely regular. If any positive action on the President's part had been contemplated to-morrow or Monday, the House managers would not have bound themselves to have postponed the adjournment until Tuesday next. Chairman Wilon also went to the White House to-day, but did not see the President, as the Cabinet meeting had already begun. Mr. Wilson accompanied a friend interested in an appointment, and it was not the purpose of the chairman to speak of the tariff bill unless the President desired a conference. Vlr. Wilson has not se.i the President inee the bill passed. Chi Irmm Payers, ot the House appropriation committee, had" a talk with the President, but not on th tariff. Mr. Payers had the satisfaction of knowing fhat all th appropriation bills had Vicome law. the general deficiency being the last to receive the President's signature yesterday.

Ilepu ll lean Smntom Do Xt Think Corrertlon I ry. WASHINGTON'. Aug. 21. Many of the Republican Senators do not consider it at all essential that the bill regaling the provision in the tariff bill for the exemption from the revenue tax of alcohol used In the arts should pass, and while the majority of them are willing that the Democrats should have thir way about this matter, they admit, if wisely administered, the provision is an entirely prorer one. Hence their motive in preventing the Xransaction of business by the Senate In the absence of a quorum. They say it is not based upon the desire to annoy the Democrats, so far as this measure is concerned. The principal opposition made to fne provision for free alcohol for the arts and manufacturers, is that it will be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to make regulations which will not permit gross Jrauds. The Treasury Department has raised this point. Republican Senators wh fcave given attention to the subject think t will be possible to reduce the possibilities of fraud to a minimum, and they say the details for, such regulations as will accomplisTi this result are found in the amendment to the Mills bill on this subject, which pased the Senate in but was not agreed to by the House. This measure was presented in the Senate during the pendency there of the Wilson tariff trill as an amendment, by Senator Piatt. Ibut was not acted upon. This measure provided for private bon-ied warehouses. In which distilled spirits of alcoholic etrength to be used in the arts and manuJactures. might be stored, having- been removed from public bonded warehouses in original casks, or packages, properly etamped.

Aug. 21.-The ste;im.hii 'iussie, which arrived to-night fr.m J'.lufie.fls, brought the latest news fr.m the Associated Ire.--s correspondent, the dispatch being dated Aug. 10. Lieut. T. L. Roberts, of the cruiser Columbia, was a passenger, charge 1 with special messages to Washington. The American and English prisoners taken by Madrlz were kert in close confinement all day. Messages were sent to the cruisers Columbia an 1' the Mohawk. Captain Sumner wrote a note asking that the prisoners be made acquainted with the charges against them, - confronted ' with the witnesses and tried at Muefields. The message was intrusted to Lieutenant Hill and he and Consul eat called at the government building and asked to see Madriz. They were met by Cabezas, who refused to awaken Madriz; informed them that the mniister could not be seen and raid that he had full authority to act during the night. They asked as to the charges against the prisoners and Cabezas said he did not know. The delegation left in disgust. It was apparent that some secret plan had been formed, and that therefore Madriz preferred to remain under cover, as he was seen awake after the hour of the visit. The Yulu, which had been chartered to convey the Nicaraguan troops to Grey town, refused "to carry the prisoners, and so at 4 o'clock Sunday morning they were smuggled on board a Carib schooner, the attempt btlng tnade to take them to Grey town and transport to Managua for trial and imprisonment. The boat found that she could not make the passage and put back. The sea was so high, however, i hat small boats could not reach the cruisers, and the last, word they received was of the kidnaping, so the prisoners were kept under guard all ' day at the blutT awaiting the departure of the Yulu, which Is compelled to carry the troops under her concession. The prisoner said they had been given their choice between exile and a trial at Managua, and they had accepted the latter alternative, as they had been guilty of no offense except to act on Clarence's governmental staff after Cabeza's flight, which left Uluelields without any government. Uefcre accepting oflice both the English and American members of the provisional council called on their respective commanders and received their consent to accept. When the Nlcaraguana returned the judge and councilmen were thanked for having preserved order. They were not openly arrested, but sent for, and when they called at the government building were thrown into confinement and denied communication vith the outside. Several Influential Americans have decided to accompany the prisoners to Managua, and leading Xicaraguans, indignant at the action of Madriz and Cabezas, furnished letters of introduction to prominent members of the liberal party at Managua. In the meantime there is consternation among foreign residents at Bluelields, and the planters have ordered their people discharged and business temporarily abandoned. Six American negro:s have been arrested for complicity in the revolution. Word was sent to another American to call and be arrested, but he took refuge In the American consulate. The leading members of Clarence's Cabinet have also been arrested, and Clarence would have been but for his taking passage for Jamoica with the other refugees, under British protection. During the day the cru!er Mohawk steamed up alongside the Columbia, and, after conference between the commanders, both ships put out to sea. The Columbia then anchored on the high sea and the Mohowk kept on towards CJreytown. It is thought the purpose is to intercept the prisoners on their way to Grey town. Taken to CJretovu. NKW YOBK. Aug. 21. Advices received here from Minefields, evidently later than those received at Colon, say that the Nicaraguan troops are returning from liluefields and that they reached Greytown yesterday, bringing with them Mr. Hatch, the British consular agent, and eight foreigners as prisoners. It has also leen announced that a British war vtssel arrived at Greytown yesterday evening. New Orleans advices received here last night describe the arrest of Mr. Hatch and the arrest of Capt. G. B. Wlltbanks, an American, who accepted the iosition of judge under the Mosquito government, and of several Mosquito Creoles. Mr. Hatch succeeded in dispatching a note to the l'nghsh cruiser off Bluetields, and Mr. Seat, the I'nited States consul, communicated with the Cnited States cruiser Columbia. It is believed that Mr. Hatch is charged with having incited the Jamaicans to riot and bloodshed. When these auvices left Bluefields that place was In a state of great excitement and it was said that the American consul would demand, by force of arms if necessary, th release of the innocent men. and the i'nited States cruisc-r Columbia and Itritish cruiser Mohawk were expected to take action in the matter.

The officers of the Kong Kong and Shanghai Bank in London entirely discredit the report that China attempted to raise a loan of one million taels upon the security of the China merchant fleet. It is reported that China is negotiating with Birmir.jham firms for a large supply of war material.

The Vienna corre spondent of the Chronicle Telegraph announces a triple murder and suicide which occurred on the liussian steamer Sebastapol on its last trip from Constantinople to Ode swa. A sailor on the steamer had "become enamored of a Miss Garrett, a young American lady, who was a passenger on the Sebastopol. and had made his teelln&s known to her. Miss Garrett scorned his addresses and threatened to have him punished if he dared to annoy her again. The sailor's comrades in some manner learned of his discomfiture and in their rough way jeered and ridiculed him until he was frantic. He finally turned on his tormentors and shot two of them dead. He next attacked Miss Garrett and beat her on the head until she was dead and then jumped into the sea and perished.

Chief Mululioeh Smoked Out. CAPE TOWN, Aug. 24. Advices received here from Pretoria, dated Aug. 7, say that the unexpected submission of Chief Malaboch has been joyfully received throughout the Transvaal. The details of the chief's surrender show that Malaboch, under cover of a white flag, accompanied by his brother, his two young sons and four Indunas, emerged from the caves in which they had sought refuge and surrendered to the Boors. But the chief did not surrender until his enemies had employed every means, including the smoke of large fires, to drive him from his place of refuge. The chief was very downcast after his surrender, and twice attempted to commit suicide by plunging into the camp fire. lludd ominnleil for Governor. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 24.

For year that monument has been a point of interest, and has been visited by thousands of citizens and strangers. Kach has apparently felt that no one would believe that he or she had been there if some portion of the slab were not carried away to be offered in evidence on all occasions. The result has been that the marble has been chipped ami defaced until its original form is almost lost. It is becauae of all this that the slab was brought to this city. To work out the effaepment th? surface would have to be worked down two inches. When redressed the stone will again be placed in position, but this time it will be protected by a fence of steel pickets. Too inclosure will be twelve fen square.

ST. JOHN HEARD AGAIN

F iirther Testimony Itejrardinjr the Railways' Alleged Blacklist. John M. Effan Tolls the Strike Commissioners that Licensing of Employes Would Prevent Trouble. ADMISSION BY mi. WlilGHT The Laljor Coniinissioncr Says He Travels on a Pullman Pass. Ho Is a Warm Personal Friend of the Car Magnate (JIass Workers' Scale Accepted by Two Firms. CHICAGO, Aug. 2I.-.eneral Manager E. St. John, of the Itoek Island road, waa recalled by the strike commission to-day. Mr. St. ,John's testimony of yesterday regarding the blacklist had, apparently, not satisfied the commissioners, and he was closely questioned regarding it. "You have said," said Commissioner Kernan, "that your road has no blacklist. Now. is it a fact that th? General Managers' Association has a blacklist?" "No such thing as a real blacklist exists among the railroads to my knowledge," was the answer. "There was, however, I believe, a list of names prepared for the General Managers' Association. It contained the names of the most active of the strikers, and has been. I think," submitted to the various roads by the association. It cannot properly be called a blacklist, however." Mr. St. John was asked to tell what he knew of the story that all railroads had adopted a uniform scale of wages. "The rumor is untrue," he said. "Has no such scale been prepared?" "Well. I believe something of the sort was submitted to the General Managers' Association, but was not universally adopted. In fact, it was rejected by all but one road, and on that line was put only into partial effect. There is absolutely no truth in the statement that the roads represented in the General Managers' Association have adopted a uniform scale." John M. Egan, strike manager of the General Managers' Association, succeeded Mr. St. John on the stand. Mr. Egan. was questioned regarding his duties during the strike, and said it was his duty to receive reports from the various roads of the progress of the trouble and to submit th? same to the association. After preliminary questions. Commissioner Wright asked Mr. r:gan if. in his professional capacity, he had nude any effort to settle the strike peaceably. "I did not." answered the strike manager. "Is it the policy of the railroads to settle such troubles by force?" "In this case, at least, It was," the witness replied, frankly. The commissioner then asked the witness for his views regarding measures for the prevention of strikes. Mr. Egan said that he thought all railway employes above common laborers shoiild be licensed and be compelled to wear uniforms, plainly indicating the positions thev hold. Such means, he believed, would tend to put reliable, levelheaded men in service, and would prevent such troubles as those of the present summer. Commissioner drnan. by a sarewd series of questions, succeeded in badly mixing up the witness and his theories, and Mr. Egan finally admitted that even with a system of licenses conditions might arise that would necessitate outside assistance or arbitration. "Mr. Egan." said Commissioner Wright, "a witness ha stated before us that you used railroad money r.nd employed men to burn and otherwise destroy railroad property during '.he strike. Is this true?" The vitnes grew evidently angry, and. straightening up in his seat, said emphatically: "Considering the source from which that testimony came, it seems to me that it should be apparent that it is the most foolish rot. I will, however, enter a general denial to any and all such stories. I never emploved men for such work, and can state, authoritatively, that no one else connected vith the General Managers' Association hi fed or commanded any one to burn or destroy railroad property. The story is absurd." Tn the afternoon Superintendent Dunlap. of the ltock Island, was called and testified brieily regarding the alleged blacklist, which, he said, h id no existence. Superintendent of Police P.rennan was the next witness. lie was asked to tell how the disorder growing out of the strike was handled. He said: "On June 20 the Mayor directed me to ue the entire force to protect property and prevent violence. Until the arrival of the troo;s. on July 3, the force had handled it without any great violence and practically no destruction of property." "Complaints were made that policemen did not do their ud duty in repressing lawlessness. How about that?" the Chief was asked. "The Mayor directed me to discharge Immediately any policeman who was lukewarm or inefficient. Indeed, we did suspend several .officers on complaints. but wh?n we came to investigate we could find no responsible author. In one cise we did find an oih-er hid been overzealous in compelling railroad companies to keep tracks car." The Chief said many of the complaints made against the police were made by depute marshals, who were more in the w.iv than of service. I. Doty, when called as a witness, said he was in the employ of the Pullman Companv as a civil engineer, and also as statistician and historian. He had been wilh the company since lW. and was familiar with the construction of th town of Pullman. He testifi-d that the Pullrmm rent were rot high, and that houses which coild be secured at the same rentals in adjoining territory were - Inferior to those in Pu lman. Other witnesses, all of whom cave unimpoftant evidence, testified before the adjournment. HAS A ITM.MAX PASS. roNimlMionrr of l.nltor "Wrlsrht Hide in Plne Cnr. CHICAGO. Aug. 21. United" States Eabor Commissioner Carroll D. Wright, chairman of the special labor commission, appointed by President Cleveland to investigate the Tullman strike was interviewed to-day as to a report that h was in the habit of using a Pullman pass. He scarcely gave the reporter time to finish his question. "Yes, I have an' annual pass on all Pullman cars." said he, with emphasis, "and I use it whenever I want to." "Did vo.i use it in coming to Chicago?" "I did not. and the government would hive been the onlv gainer if 1 had." "Are you in the habit of traveling on it?" "I use it whenever I please. The pass was given to me by Mr. Pullman, who is a ersonal friend of mine, and I have had It "for several years ever since the first Pullman Investigation I made for I suppose that's .vhat you are driving at. I never knew Mr. Pullman until then, but met h'm at that time and he has alwavs beep a warm friend of mine ever since. He gave me the pass and invited me to ride on his ears whenever I wanted to just as a man would invite another to take a ride in his carriage." Commissioner Wright's pass entitles him to ride free in any Pullman car at any time in any part of the Cnited States. ;mss AvmtKintv scu,!:. I'mii Pennwy I vii nla Firm Settle vllh Their Employe. PITTSBURG. Pa., Aug. 21. The prosI active contest between window-glass workers and manufacturers is likely to be nipped in the bud by a settlement effected to-day between the workers and the Chambers Glass Company, of Kensington, and the Phillips Glass Company. South 'Side, Pittsburg. At yesterday's conference between the S'" ile commutes, the manufacturers were decided in their demand for a 30 per cen:. reduction, and announced that no compronrse could be accepted. The workers were equally timi in their refusal to ;..-f.or,t pi.-ri. thin : !." ner cent, cut Th situation at the close of the conference

pifted strongly to a complete shut-down ; of the window -glass plants of the United ! State. To-day. however, Mr. Chambers said the demand of the manufacturers was ; excessive, and he would start his works on Sept. 1 on a compromise of 23 per cent. , After consultation with the workmen, .this , proposition was changed to provide for a i 20 per cent, reduction for blowers, flitt?n- ; ers and cutters, and a h per cent, advance

lor gatherers.. This scale was accepted by the men. and while it is not satisfactory to either side, it will be put into operation as the best possible under the circumstances, and the Chambers and Phillips factories will blow in on Sept. 1. The smarting of these works will probably result in the forcing of 'the other manufacturers to follow suit. The reduction is made necessary by the new tariff law, the manufacturers figuring that the cost. of foreign window glass will be reduced 20 per cent, by an average reduction of 30 per cent, on the window-glass schedule. As the reduction affects only ") per cent, of the labor, the manufacturers have practically obtained a reduction of only 10 per cent. Many factories will be unable to resume on this scale. tin: win i:ni:i. rroasnion ninl I nlon Printer "Will Hereafter Aft Together. ST. L.OUIS, Aug. 24. The committees of conference on amalgamation of the International Typographical Union and International Printing Pressmen's I'nion have settled the differences of the two organizations. The latter organization seceded from the International Typographical Union about four years ago on account of differences then existing between them. The new agreement includes an alliance offensive and defensive in regard to the strike law between the two unions, the allied printing trade councils in every' city and town in the United States and Canada and a joint union label.

AVeaverH Strike Mny 13ml Soon. NKW BEDFORD, Mass., Aug.24. The great strike here will be ended in the course of a week, if the statement of Hon. W. V. Crapo, made to-night, amounts to aught. . Mr. Crapo said he thought that after Labor day the end of the fignt would be In view. He believed the manufacturers were at fault in the manner in which they had posted the reduction. He admitted that the pound system of payment adopted by the manufacturers in order to avoid the particulars In the law was a failure so far, and his statement was borne out this afternoon when the Wamsutta laborers were paid off, for all the weavers found, upon opening their pay envelopes, that tiiey were paid by the cut. This is due to the fact that the manufacturers find, after making up the pay Tolls, the wage3 were increased 10 per cent, by the pound payment system. i MiikHnIi Miner Anultel l Slavs. MT. PLEASANT, Pa., Aug. 2b This morning Peter Firmstone, an English miner, was attacked by a crowd of striking Slavs while on his way to work, knocked down with a club and repeatedly kicked, his assailants aiming for the heart. Firmstone's wife, who heard his cries for help, quickly aroused several of her neighbors and went to the rescue. The Slavs escaped, but before leaving their victim one of them cut the unconscious Englishman across the head and through the nose. Another striker almost severed the left ear. The terrible kicks Firmstone received over the heart will probably cause his death. Truiii lltinniiiK' AkhIii. NELSON VILLE, O., Aug. 24.-The stoppage of trains on the Columbus.

DKLIaxA IK KIDNAPED. Xow Method of Cjtpt iirlntc Demoerntie Convent Ion. PALATKA, Fla.. AUg. 24. It. C. Scott, city treasurer of Jacksonville, and Market Insiector McCurdy, of that city, are under arrest here on a charge of kidnaping, made by II. W. Helverster, of Live Oak, a delegate from Shawnee county to the Second district Democratic convention, now in session here. Helverster says that Scott and McCurdy, with two other men, took him in a closed carriage to a lonely spot outside the city and gagged him. There was a tie vcte in the credentials committee on the seating of the Harr-Stockton delegate from Jacksonville, and the object of the kidnapers was to hreak the tie and win the contest. Helverster was not released until his captors had extorted from him a promise to vote for the seating of their faction. Moiled HI Party. DANVILLE, Ky., Aug. 24. Ex-Congressman John D. White has bolted the action of the Itepublican committee in the Eleventh district In ordering a primary' election, and announced himself an Independent Republican candidate. The district is now represented by Silas Adams, Itepublican, candidate for re-election. Scientist in Action. New York Sun. One of these days some patient, observant man will arise and write a piece about the relation of science to whiskers; net the kind of science expounded by Prof. Jim J. Corbett, or Dr. William Muldoon, or Herr Zimmermann, but an abstruse science, concerning which no one ever talks to a linish. At this time Brooklyn has a convention of the members of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and there are in that city enough additional whiskers to weave cables for an other bridge across the East river. Senator Peffer would not attract special attention in Brooklyn now. In the neighborhood of the Packer Institute and the Polytechnic building the tempered wind seeks only the shorn stranger from New York; the scientific visitor braves the battling breezes with impunity. Then, there is another thing; the scientist of the kind now swarming the trolley-infested ways of lesser NewYork is a conhrmed wearer of white neckties. The reason therefor, with the cause of his whiskers, remains unexplained w'th such other impenetrable mysteries as Tie origin of earthquake.', thunder and tne prices of mixed drinks. The members of the American Association for the Advancement of Science are gentle-voiced men with bulbous foreheads, who develop, enthusiasm only when they are engaged in the consideration of the unknowable. The degree of delight the ordinary man feels when he sees Jack Doyle line out a two-bagger is paralleled by the devoted member of the A. A. A. S. onlv when he is listening to a note on the "Chemistry of Cernim" or the "Hacteriology of the Soil as Affected by Depth. Character and Use." Immoritl Literature ami Picture. Philadelphia Times. The whole subject of immoral literature and pictures is a queer and puzzling one and full of inconsistencies. Some books that are practically harmless are excluded from the mails in this and other countries, while other books that are really vile go scot free. Pictures that are almost spiritual are rejected from art galleries, while prints in the highest degree suggestive may be seen displayed in Chestnut-street windows. What one considers ideal and grand another looks upon as degrading and vulgar, and the place of any particular book or picture appears to be largely a matter of opinion or favor. One of the most, popular and refined illustrators a woman has lately drawn the pictures fo a French book that is as broad as anything in print. In Melbourne they have l,pPn debating whether Sarah Grand's "Heavenly Twins" should be axcluded from the mails. At Ocean drove, a religious resort, the flashiest novels are sold in stacks from the news-stand counters. There is hardly a prominent news-stand in this country where you may not find a republication of a book that many years ago created a sensation and was tabooed everywhere as dangerously and grossly immoral.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Aug. 24. It looks as if Terre Haute and Vigo county are to have" a legal hanging, the first in nearly forty years. Ben Reed, who killed Dan Hendrickson a week ago last Tuesday night for $6.50, has confessed to the coroner and pleaded guilty before the magistrate in the preliminary examination. His wdfe, whom he accuses of instigating him to the murder, had not been abie to see him until yesterday, and said she went only because the three little children had been crying to see their father. Reed scolded his wife for not bringing him morphine and some clean clothes, and when one of the children cried to him to be taken up in his .arms he told the mother to "give it a good spanking and make It keep still." Reed must be hanged on a plea of guilty. The law permits no discretion on the part of a judge in Imposing sentence when the plea of guilty is entered on the charge of murder in the first degree. On trial by a jury a life sentence or death Is discretionary with the jury. There have been only two legal hangings here since Vigo became a county. Tne last was of a man named Morgan, who killed another named Petri, before the war. II Would, lmt She Wouldn't. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. PENDLETON, Ind.. Aug. 24.
