LABOR PARLIAMENT.

An Important Conference to Bo Shortly Held in Chicago. The Relations of Capital and Labor to Be Discussed from All Standpoints— Prominent Speakers Who Will Participate. Chicago, Oct. 15. —The parliament of labor which has been called by the Civic federation to meet in Chicago November 18 promises to be a most notable gathering. Replies to the circular letter of invitation have been received from a great many men of prominence as thinkers on economic subjects, or as employers or leaders of labor. There is a striking consensus of opinion in favor of making the conference as practical as possible. The suggestion comes from all sides that the employers of labor and the representatives of labor, as the ones best knowing the actual conditions to be met, shofald be brought to the front in such a discussion. The plan of the parliament is modeled on that of the parliament of religion, so successful last year. There is to be nothing in the nature of con-

THE BOSTON PUBLIC LIBRARY.

TWO OF A KIND.

A Pair of Bold Train Robberies Net ths Thieves SIOO.OOO. Richmond, Va., Oct. 13.—The northbound passenger train on the Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac railway which left here at 7 o’clock Friday night was held up near Quantico. The engineer and fireman were forced from their engine and the engine was cut loose and sent ahead. The express car was then entered, the messenger covered with* pistols and forced" to'open the safe, runaway locomotive was stopped at Quantico by obstructing the track. It is stated here that there was an unusually large amount of money on the train, probably 850,000. The robbers, seven in number, were masked. The railway company has offered 81,000 reward for the arrest of any of the robbers. San Francisco, Oct. 13. —The bandits who held up a Southern Pacific overland train a few miles west of Sacramento late Thursday night and looted the Wells-Fargo company express car secured over 850,000. They seem to have eluded the officers and escaped with their plunder, which was nearly all in gold coin, and consequently a heavy burden. The astounding success of the hold up was not known un-

til Friday afternoon. Earlier reports of the robbery gave the amount of money taken at 81,500. The robberj’ was a daring one. Four sacks of coin were secured from the express car, and Messenger Paige barely escaped with his life. Three hundred pounds of coin were taken. Engineer Bill Scott, of the Oregon Overland, and his fireman were forced at the muzzle of a revolver to carry coin sacks from the express car to the engine. There the robbers uncoupled the engine and rode off with their booty.

A MINE DISASTER.

Five Killed and Much Damage Done by a Boiler Explosion. Shamokin, Pa., Oct. 13. —Five men were killed, two were fatally injured and several others painfully burned by a disastrous boiler explosion at the Henry Clay collierj’ at Thursday. The entire steam-supplying plant of the mine, consisting of thirtysix boilers, was totally demolished, and in addition to the monetary loss, which will aggregate $30,000, the Henry Clay, Big Mountain, Sterling and Peerless collieries will be unable to resume operations tor at least a month. The explosion is the worst of its kind that has ever occurred in this region, and its cause is a mystery.

WONDERFUL SHOOTING.

Phenomenal Performance by Elliott and Carver—Elliott’s World Record.. Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 15. —Never in the history of pigeon shooting have the lovers of the sport been treated to so wonderful a contest as was given by J. A. It. Elliott and Dr. W. F. Carver at Exposition park Friday. Mr. Elliott won bj r the remarkable score of 100 -out of a possible 100. Dr. Carver got 99. Mr. Elliott has probably established a record with 50-yard boundaries that will never be equaled. The onlj’ bird lost out of the 200 was Dr. Carver’s fourth, a black straight-awaj driver. Even this one, which decided the match, fell dead just as it reached the fence.

For the Greater New York.

New York, Oct. 17.—The greater New York commissioners held a meeting Monday in the office of President Andrew H. Green, 214 Broadway. An address to the voters resident in the area of the proposed greater city was adopted and issued. The address recites that the area proposed to be joined under one government comprises 317.7? square miles, all lying within a radius of about 16 miles from the city hall and having a population of more than 3,000,000.

Sugar Men Beaten.

Washington, Oct. 15.—Judge McComas. of the district supreme court, has denied the appllcaiion of the Miles Sugar Manufacturing company of Louisiana for a mandamus to compel Secretary Carlisle to appoint inspectors to ascertain the sugar production of the company. The object of the suit, it is understood, was to test the legality of the recent repeal of the sugar bounty provision of the McKinley law and also to lay the foundation for an appeal to congress for payment of bounty for the current year.

MILES ON THE STRIKE.

The General Makes His Annual Report to the Secretary of War. IS ashington, Oct. 17. —The annual report of Maj. Gen. Nelson A. Miles, commanding the department of Missouri, showing the conduct of affairs at that department, is a remarkably short document, considering the stormj’ period of internal strife covered by it. But, notwithstanding its brevity, it contains some, very terse and significant statements relative to the strike. The report says there have been no changes of troops in the department during the year, and continues as follows: • As in previous years, the troops in the Indian and Oklahoma territories have been occupied during much of this time in removing trespassers from the public lands, in preserving order in the newly-settled region and in keeping the peace between the hostile factions of .the semi-civilized Indian tribes. In addition to removing and expelling intruders in the Choctaw nation and from the Osage and Kawind reservations the troops stationed at Forts Reno. Sill and Supply were called on for the purpose of protecting United States mails, guarding railroad bridges and supporting the United States marshal in making arrests. ••All of these difficult duties have been performed in a manner which shows good judgment and discretion on the part of the officers and a good state of discipline and faithful service on the part of the troops, and it is believed that but for their .prompt intervention much bloodshed would have resulted. The troops, having quickly and efficiently accomplished the arduous duties assigned to them, have been withdrawn from the field and returned to their respective stations. “The conduct of the troops in restoring order and confidence when mob violence and a reign ot terror existed iu Chicago, was marked by great forbearance, fortitude and excellent discipline. and their presence and action there very greatly contributed to the maintenance of civil law, and. in my opinion, saved this country from serious rebellion when one had been publicly declared to exist by one most responsible for its existence.”

An appendix to the report is contributed by J. M. Lee, Ninth infantrj’, assistant to the inspector general, in the shape of a brief history of the strike movement in Chicago. The officer says that he hopes to be able to make a more comprehensive report later on. “covering as fully as possible the operations of the United States troops in this storm center of violence, disorder and arson which at times threatened the overthrow of all law and government.’’ In this report Capt. Lee says: • Throughout all these perilous times it ip gratifying to state that the conduct, discipline and efficiency of the troops were so pronounced that even their presence overawed the turbulent and lawless and won from every reputable. law-abiding citizen, whether laboring man or capitalist—and every newspaper without exception—the highest encomiums and the warmest expressions of gratitude from all who were not in sympathy with anarchy, arson and pillage."

STOLEN MONEY IN A WELL.

Sixteen Hundred Dollars Found on the Property of a Bank Cashier. Homer, Neb., Oct. 17. —In October, 1891, §1,600 were stolen mysteriously from the Homer state bank and never found. H. L. Frisbie, the cashier of the bank, was found the next morning in the bank with his hands tied behind him and himself tied to the door knob. He said two masked men held him up on the str -et the night before and compelled him to let them into the bank, after which they tied him as found. Tuesday the money stolen was found in a glass fruit jar at the bottom of a well on the place on which Frisbie lived at the time of the robbery. The money had been sealed up, but the jar was broken and it was in bad condition. Frisbie is now in Antelope county, Neb., where he is a candidate for county attorney. The money was nearly all in silver and bills. Dakota City, Neb., Oct. 17.—A warrant has been issued in County Judge Hefferman’s court for the arrest of 11. L. Frisbie, a resident of Elgin, this state, and a candidate for county attorney in Antelope county on the independent ticket. He is charged with embezzling $1,500 from the Homer state bank.

At an expense of §25,000,000. voted by the imperial government of Germany, and §12.500,000 by Prussia, the kingdom of Denmark and a part of the German state, Schleswig-Holstein, have been made an island. A few days ago the canal, extending from the Kiel bay in the southwestern limit of the Baltic sea to Brunsbuttel, on the River Elbe, was formally opened. This canal is 61 miles long, 200 feet wide and 23 feet deep and so capable of floating the largest warships. It saves the necessity for ships traversing the Skager Rack and the Cattegnt and going around the deadly Skaw.

Then followed the presentation of a little silver table of choice design, ornamented with gold. After this a gold medal from the members of the celebration committee was presented to Herr Strauss. Baron Bezeeny made a speech. At 10:45 o’clock Burgomaster Gruble arrived from the rathaus. The crowd was then so dense that he found it difficult to reach a position beside the “waltz king.” After he had reached Herr Strauss the burgomaster tendered greeting iu the name of the city. Addresses were made by the spokesman of a deputation of the Vienna piess, presented by Government Counselor Winternit, and Dr. von Spiegel and Dr. Gustav Kohn from a deputation of the Vienna Mannergesaug verin.
