AGAINST PINKERTONS.

Important Declarations by a Special Committee of the Senate. WASHINGTON, Feb. 11.—Mr. Gallinger from the select committee appointed by the senate to investigate and report the facts in relation to the employment for private purposes of armed bodies of men or detectives in connection with differences between workmen and employers submitted the report of the committee Friday. The committee found that even the proprietors of the detective agencies admitted that the presence of the so-called Pinkertons at a strike served unduly to inflame the passions of the strikers, and the employment of detectives in the guise of mechanics impressed the committee with the belief that it was an utterly vicious system, responsible for much of the ill-feeling and bad blood displayed by the working classes. The committee declares that the employment of a private armed guard at Homestead was unnecessary. There was no evidence, they say, to show that the slightest damage was done or attempted to be done to property on the part of the strikers. At the same time there seems to be no excuse for the strikers; laboring men should learn the lesson that they cannot better their condition by violating the law or resisting lawful authority. The committee reached these conclusions: 1. Rights of employers and workmen are equal. 2. Employers have an undoubted right, provided they fulfill their agreements, to employ and dismiss men at pleasure. 3. Workmen can legally organize for mutual protection and improvement. 4. When dissatisfied with wages or hours they should attempt to arbitrate. 5. Failing in this they have a right to discontinue work either singly or in a body. 6. Having discontinued work they have no right, legal or moral, by force or intimidation, to keep others from taking their places or to attempt to occupy, injure or destroy the property of their employers. 7. In all controversies, arbitration having failed, reliance should be placed upon the power and adequacy of the law. 8. Employment of armed bodies of men for private purposes either by employers or employes should not be resorted to, and such act is an assumption of the state’s authority by private citizens. 9. States have undoubted authority to legislate against the employment of armed bodies of men for private purposes; but the power of congress to so legislate is not clear, although it would seem that congress ought not to be powerless to prevent the movement of such bodies from one state to another. In conclusion the committee says that its investigations have led it to conclude that the fault is not wholly on one side; that middle ground seems to be in the direction of arbitration. Without making any recommendations, the committee closes with a plea for arbitration.

DOWN ON THE VERDICT.

The Paris Press Unanimous In Expressions Denouncing the Sentence of de Lesseps as Too Severe—Clamor for His Pardon. PARIS, Feb. 11. —Public opinion is substantially unanimous to the effect that the ignominious judgment passed upon Count Ferdinand de Lesseps went beyond the requirements of justice. The newspapers consider the sentences very severe and especially that of Ferdinand de Lesseps. The clamor for his unconditional pardon is heard on all sides and the judges are condemned by many for having done something which they imagined would be received as an act of great bravery. The Figaro demands, in flaming headlines, the pardon of the old man who has been one of the glories of France. The Journal des Debats says that to imagine striking down the creator of the Suez canal in his declining days to salve the public conscience shows a great misconception of the opinion of the nation. La Lanterne says the country has sustained a blow from the sentence which is useless in fact and excessive in law. The Matin declares that the decree marks a day of ingratitude in the lives of the historical personages concerned in the trial. Their sufferings will leave no appreciable stain. All the other papers contain like expressions. The Radical La Justice, M. Clemenceau’s paper, regards the judgment passed upon M. Ferdinand de Lesseps as severe. As to the other sentences, La Justice points out that the other contractors were exactly in the same position with M. Eiffel, and the official liquidator of the Panama Canal company ought to proceed against them all for the recovery of the sums they unlawfully claimed and appropriated. M. Henri Cottu and Charles de Lesseps give notice of an appeal from Thursday’s judgment. The elder De Lesseps has not yet been made acquainted with the decision against him, as it is feared a knowledge of the fact might end in his death. His wife is prostrated. BERLIN, Feb. 11. —All papers have long articles on the Panama convictions. A summary of opinion is that De Lesseps should be pardoned, while Eiffel has been leniently treated in view of the vast profits he made out of the company.

Death of Henry C. De Mille.

NEW YORK, Feb. 11.—Henry C. De Mille, the well-known playwright, died suddenly at his home in Pompton, N. J., about 4 o’clock a. m. Friday. Mr. De Mille was the author of “The Lost Paradise,” which was first produced in Chicago and has since met with success, also of a railroad play called “The Main Line,” and he was co-author with David Belasco, of the Lyceum theatre successes, “The Wife” and the “Charity Ball,” produced by Daniel Frohman.

Heavy Loss by Fire.

DEXTER, Mo., Feb. 11.—Fire started in the frame building occupied by Thomas N. Doherty as a dry goods store between 1 and 2 o'clock Friday morning and before it could be stopped destroyed twelve buildings in the south half of the block, which was almost entirely occupied by business houses. In addition to the four houses burned a dozen more are badly damaged. The losses are estimated at $60,000. A little over half is covered by insurance. This is Dexter’s third fire within a year and in amount of losses has been exceeded in only one instance, that of March 5, last year.

Still Bright and Booming.

A publication, always foremost, is before us, brimful of sound advice and the raciest bits of fun, original and copyrighted, from the pens of such noted humorists as Bill Nye, Opie P. Read, Danbury-News-Man and others. It is a free gift of the season at the Druggists’ counter, and will be sought for as the highly popular St. Jacobs Oil Family Almanac and Book of Health and Humor, 1893. The work differs somewhat from its former editions, but is none the less attractive and in many of its features is the superior of former numbers. One special feature is the “Offer of One Hundred Dollars,” open to all contestants, the details of which a perusal of the book will more fully give. The almanac is issued by The Charles A. Vogeler Company, Baltimore, Md., proprietors of some of the best known and most reliable medicinal preparations. A copy will be mailed to any address on receipt of a 2-cent stamp by the above firm. “This machine only registers two hundred and fifty pounds, and I weigh in the neighborhood of three hundred.” “Oh, well, if you want to ascertain your exact weight, drop a nickle in twice, and foot up the aggregate.”—Harper’s Bazar.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portions of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CHENEY & Co., Toledo, O.

Go West!

Right enough. But if you go to a malaria troubled region, protect yourself against the prevalent scourge in bottom lands and new clearings. How? With Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. The answer comes clear and unanimous from thousands of new settlers and pioneer emigrants, whom the great preventative has kept in health when threatened by miasma. Use the Bitters for kidney, liver, bowel, rheumatic and stomach difficulty. IT must be on account of their relative sizes that the elephant always travels with a trunk, while the bear is satisfied with a grip and the kangaroo has but a mere pouch.—Truth.

An Important Difference.

To make it apparent to thousands, who think themselves ill, that they are not affected with any disease, but that the system simply needs cleansing, is to bring comfort home to their hearts, as a costive condition is easily cured by using Syrup of Figs. Manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. “WELL, Hal, what are you learning now at school?” asked the visitor. “To keep still chiefly,” said Hal. —Harper’s Bazar.
