Chicago, July 13. The following is
the text of a proposition made bv Debs
to the association of railway managers:
"The Railway Managers, Gentlemen :
The existing trouble throughout the
Pullman strike having assumed conti
nental proportions and there being no
indication of relief from widespread
business demoralization and distress
incident thereto, the railway employes,
through the board of directors of the
A. E. U., respectfully make the follow
ing proposition as a basis of settlement :
"They agree to return to work in a
body at once provided they shall be
restored to their former positions with
out prejudice except in cases, if any
there be, where they have been con
victed of crime. This is a proposition
looking to an immediate
the existing strike on all
ways and is inspired by
settlement of
lines of rail
a purpose to
subserve the public good.
"The strike, small and comparatively
unimportant in its inception, has ex
tended in every direction until now it
involves or threatens not only every
public interest but the peace, security
and prosperity of our common causa.
The contest has waged fiercely. It has
extended far beyond the limits and in
terests originally involved and has af
fected a vast number of industries and
enterprises in nowise responsible for
the differences and disagreements that
led to the trouble. Factory, mill, mine
and shop have been silenced, wide
spread demoralization has had sway
The interests of multiplied thousands
of innocent people are suffering. The
common welfare is seriously menaced
Ine public peace and tranquillity are
imperiled and grave apprehension for
the future prevails.
"This being true, and the statement
will not be controverted, we conceive
it to be our duty as citizens and as men
to make extraordinary efforts to end the
existing strike and avert the approach
ing calamities whose shadows are even
now upon us. If it end now, the contest
however serious in its consequence will
not have been in vain.
"Sacrifices have been made, but
they will have their compensation. In
deed, it lessonB are taught by experi
ence, the troubles now so widely de
plored, will prove blessings of inesti
mable value in the months and years to
come.
"The difference that led np to the
present complications need not be dis
cussed. At this supreme juncture
every consideration of duty and pa
triotism demands that the remedy for
the existing troubles be found and ap
plied. The employes propose to do
their part by meeting their employers
half way. Let it be stated that they do
not impose any conditions of settle
ment except that thev return to their
former positions. They do not ask
recognition of their organization or of
any organization.
Believing this proposition to be
fair, reasonable and just it is respect
fully submitted with the belief that its
acceptance will result in a prompt re
sumption of traffic, the reviyal of in-
dustrv and the restoration of peace and
order. Respectfully. Siened :
Eugene V. Debs, President.
G. W. Howard, Vice-President.

PRENDERGAST DISS.
The Assassin Was Affected But Re
tained His Nerve.
Chicago, July 15, Atonement was
made today for the murder of Mayor
Carter Harrison. Patrick' Eugene
Prendergast was hanged at 11 :48 this
morning. The last resources of the de-
sense were exhausted last night and the
assassin resigned himself to his fate,
He rested well last night and seemed
calm and collected. He refused until
late last evening to receive spiritual
consolation but when night fall came
he asked for Father Muldoon.
Between 6 and 7 o'ciock this morning
Prendergast partook heartily of ham
and eijge and about 9 o'clock Bent word
to Jailer Morris that he was again hun
gry. The jailer had the prisoner
served with another hearty meal which
he seemed to relish greatly. The as
sassin talked freely with his spiritual
advisor and several times remarked.
you must stay with me to the end." As
the hour for the execution came nearer
Prendergast showed signs of slightly in
creasing nervousness but on the whole
he was remarkably calm and well col
lected. BLOODY SACRAMENTO.

The railroad officials fear trouble at

BREATHLESSLY WAITING.
Contingency Which May
Cause More Trouble.
Debbs' Proposition Is Rejected
the StriKe Will Be Carried on
More Vigorously.
By the Associated Press.
Chicago, July 13. A joint meeting
of the executive board of the A. R. U
and the K. of L. was held today to con
sider the treatment which the railway
union's proposition to the General
Managers association received earlier in
the day. An intormal discussion was
followed by an adjournment till tomor
row. The feeling against the general
managers was bitter but a conclusion
was reached to wait until the general
managers had acted upon the proposi
tion, before taking action themselves
The h.. ot L. representatives were in
full accord with the A. R. U. and
agreed to stand by thee union to th end
President Debs said that if the pres

people gave in.

The California Tieup
No Means Over.
by
Another Riot Yesterday
at Sacramento.
The City Has Been Piaced Un
der Rigor of Martial Law.
What Trains Are Moving Are Laden
With the Majesty of the
Government.
By the Associated Press.
San Francisco, July 13. During the
entire sixteen days of the strike rail
way traffic has been at a standstill in
northern California. Human lives have
been sacrificed, the commercial loss has
been enormous, a season's fruit crop to
the value of hundreds of thousands of
dollars is perishing in the orchards, and
tonight there is every indication that
more lives are to be slaughtered in this
industrial war, that fruit growers are to
see more of their crop spoil on their
hands and that the embargo on com
merce is to be indefinitely continued.
In Sacramento defiance to federal au
thority became so bold that the capital
city is tonight nnder actual martial law.
The adoption of this extreme measure
was provoked by an outbreak in Sacra
mento late this afternoon, when a
switch engine under a military guard
was fired upon by strikers as it passed
their headquarters. The regulars re
turned the fire and several men in the
crowd bit the dust.
Tonight only meagre details of the
situation are to be had, for what is
a press censorship in effect has been
established by Col. Graham. The As
sociated Press correspondent is suffered
to pass the military pickets, but it is
required that he shall send out no infor
mation relative to the movements of
trains, as it ia desired by Col. Graham
and the railroad company that this in
formation be withheld from the strik
ers. It is known, however, that no
trains are running out of Sacramento
except two dispatched for the east this
morning.
A train bearing twenty -five United
States troops from Fort Douglas, Utah,
is speeding toward the capital city.
They picked up a train which has been
stalled at Winnemucca since June 29,
and will escort it to Sacramento. An
overland train from Los Angeles has
passed Bakerefield and is due to reach
Oakland late tonight. In San Fran
cisco today a special United States
grand jury was impaneled to investi
gate the prevailing disorders.
PULLMAN'S STATEMENT.
He Can See Nothing Businesslike
in an Arbitration.
New York, July 13. George M. Pull
man has issued a lengthy statement of
the attitude of his company in reference
to the strike, its cause, its merits and
its settlement.
He does not declare definitely toward
submitting to an arbitration, but urges
that it would be unbusinesslike to con
cede to an arbitration which might de
cide that the Pullman works should be
operated at a loss.
In defense of hia position taken in re
fusing to listen to the proposition of a
settlement by arbitration he said in
part: "Arbitration always implies an
acquiescence in the decision of the arbi
trator whether favorable or adverse.
How could I as president of the Pull
man company consent to agree to that
if any body of men not concerned with
the interests of the company's share
holders should as arbitrators for any
reason seeming good to them deBire
that I would open the shops, employ
workmen at wages greater than their
work could be settled for and continue
the ruinous policy indefinitely or be
accused of breach of faith? Who will
deny that such a question is plainly not
a subject of arbitration."
They Ignore the Strike.
Toledo, Ohio, July 13. The Toledo
association of railroad superintendents
at a meeting today decided that all
places shall be filled bf new men if the
strikers do not return, and traffic will
be resumed in the morning. They will
pay no further attention to the strike.
The Chicago Grand Jury.
Chicago, July 13. The grand jury
today adjourned until Tuesday in order
to return to their homes for Sunday.

Tribute to a Deserving: Teacher by
High School Scholars.
The following tribute to Prof. Ray,
who was not reappointed at the recent
meeting of the board of school trustees
ia signed by every pupil of the High
school at present in the city. The only
signatures wanting are those of scholars
who could not be seen. It affords over
whelming proof of the popnlarity of
Prof. Ray with the young people with
whom he has been in daily association
for the past two years :

nected with the Phcenix high school,
we, whose names are hereunto signed,
having been under his instruction dur
ing the past two years, desire to ex
press our appreciation of his valuable
services. It gives us pleasure to bear
testimony to his broad scholarship, and
his thoroughness as a class instructor.
He has always borne himself before
his classes as a true gentleman, and has
commanded the respect of all who came
under his influence. This testimonial
is given as our free will offering, to give

BOB LEE, THE COWBOY,
Said to Have Been Killed at Globe
Last Wednesday.
Word was received here yesterday of
the killing at Globe on Wednesday of
Bob Lee, the well-known cowboy. No
particulars of his death are known ex
cept that he was engaged in a quarrel
in the course of which he was shot.
Lee worked in the valley a long time
and was well liked though he was re
garded as a fighter and frequently
assisted in the enterprise of stirring the
sluggish blood of the town. Hfs last
exploit of that kind in Phoenix was a
year ago last Christmas eve. His chief
assistant was Doc Goodin. The next
day witnessed a continuation of the
performance which closed with Lee's
collapse under a heavy blow by a re
volver wielded by Constable Zent.
During two or three days he hovered
between life and death.
PROMPT PAYMENT.
The Holders of Territorial Funding
Bonds Ought to Be Satisfied.
Territorial Treasurer Cole yeBterday
paid the interest due on the funding
bonds. The amount was $40,350,
really due on the 15th. On account of
a possible delay of mails Mr. Cole tel
egraphed the money to the New York
Trust company, at which payment is to
be made.
Legal payment, of course, would
have been effected with the post
ing of a letter in the Phoenix post
office, but this being the first interest
due on some of these securities, the
holders were so apprehensive concern
ing promptness of payment that they
had written to inquire about it. For
the credit of the territory, the treasurer
therefore decided to allay their appre
hension by placing the money within
their reach a day or two even before it
became due. i
The remarkable business done by the
Pacific Grotto lunch counter is largely
due to the untiring efforts of Mr. Jamea
Fowler, the pastry cook. His superi
ority has never been disputed.
