BorniDg.and the WXO (o 10,000 men
em ploy t J in tbe yrr, and planing

claim that the great majority of tbe
men are ore rmed by tiie Bohemian
Social eta wbo infett tbe region. A
large force of police continue to be
stationed in the district to guard
against any outbreak. Tbe yaila in
the noitb aid south divisions of tbe
city and about Chicago tbe yards and
planiog-mills bave all fully resumed
on tbe old basis of ten boors' woik
and ton hours' pay, so that tbe lum

only lightly aflected.

pioprielora expect to fee all tbe men
on duty again within a few dys.
Aa a claRP, the furniture workers
ronttitute the only oco which is bold

The boot and shoe mannftcturers
who tried the eight hour day aa an
eiperinent. are considering th. ad
visability of returning to ten boors.
Tti evidetcei of tbe presence of the
great atiikes, tbtrefore, are rapidly
diHippeiring in every pinion of the
city.
The B.onjwick-Balke-Collender Billiard-Table
Company tbii morning
claimed that tbey bad between 100
and 150 men a", work. This number
waa not nearly snllicient to run tbe
Juctiry. A great croud of itrikers
stooi about the factory on Market
street, and Mr. Bensioger, at 9::i0
o'clock, telephoned for tbe police. A
aqaad was immediately sent down
from the East Chicago avenut satii n.
The strikers rapidly disappeared on
tbe arrival of the police.
The police reserves sra atill on duty
at the respective stations. The police
re devotir g their eneigies to procur
ing evidence against tbe Anarchists,
and it ia claimed that on tbe trial of
the ccnnplratora the evidence will be
ample for a conviction of runnier
gainat August cpies, Bchwab, l'ar

Adams, rays : "There seems to be no
room lor doubt that the master of

aelxare wai piopeily made. The peo
ple oi the Uuited Slates did not know
what tbey were doing when they ab
lozated the clauses in the Washington

profitably nnleas they are permitted

For tbe sue of Canada, for the sake

business, openly or secretly, it will be
to help ns to maintain onr righta and
not to thwart, hamper or restrain ui

The MM lays: "An American ve
rel baa just bien seized at Digby, N.

that a test crse will be made. If, as
the London Timr$ asserts, the English
peorla har no inUreat in seeing that

Tybonka P. O., Cboss County, Abk.,
May 9. Heading diy after day tbe
many and numerous letters pertaining
ti the Miatiwipii river and leveea,
you will, I trust, pardon non In at
tempting to explain to tbe wild theo
rists the suicidil policy they are pur
suing, lt is on'y a few days ago that
nne of this c'aia suggested that Col.
Miles and 100 representative men of
Ihe Mi-sisiippi Valley should be tent
nn to Washington to tell the United
Hia ei Government what ti do with
the river. Hope, when they go, they
will remain there forever. Another
from livar wants lateral levees. In
stead of having too many levees, we
have not got enough, as evidenced by
the he. that tne unusual bight of the
llod at Helena is annually cau el by
the rapid discharge of water through
ttie 8:. Francis basin. It emanates
fiom the wtter escaping from the
channel of the liver below Cairo,
through the sunken lands of 8t.
Francis, whose outlet is about eight
miles north of Helena.
When the river reaches forty-five
feet at Cairo it then paeses into Wap
pinocky bayou, and horn thence into
Waipinocky lake; from thsnce into
the Tyrorti river, and from thence
into tbe Ht. Francis river, twenty-five
mi'es north of the point where Crow
ley's Kidgs comes to the river. That
is how the first of ths Mississippi river
gets into that basin. In the mean
time ths water comiog through Nigger
Wool swamp la ast tilling up the ba
sin, and when the sunken lands and
all the low lands become tilled, and
the tit. Francia basin one vast sea, it
parses out with increased velocity,
gained by i's shortt nd course a dis
tance of 100 miles, and gilnlng an in
creased fall nt twenty fnet in this dis
tance.' Compute the distance by river
from Cairo to lit lena, and allow the
minimum dec inttir u of tbe Missis
sippi river, which is about three
tenths of a foot to the mile. Then
take tbe distance between thote same
poiota, but a toss the basin, aa the
Mississippi river finds its may duiirg
a fl.oJ, and jou will then readily see
why the man at Helena and its vicin
ity wbo itands behind a levee that is
one in name only cries out: 'The
levees area failure; abolish them."
Instead of abolishing them let the
filan of the Kiver Commission be fob
owed; close tbe St. Francis basin
np; do not let the water accumu
late in these and then at
tlie last moment ponr ita flood
out on a river already fail. Bend this
vast volume around by ita natural
course, and then it will have time to
carry cfl the water as it does in other
portions of the rivir. Why this an
nual bowl from the vicinity of Hel
ena? It ia caused by the vast re
st l voir stored at their doors ready to
ponr down on them at the last mo
ment. Close the Francis ba in and
yon wdl get clear ot this annual howl
about the abolition of levers. The
men that howl moat about tearing
down levels are the very onea that
would sit idly by whiltllnn a nine
stick and see anybody in the world

floods come you will not have to bie
you to the woods end build vou

men in the Yazoo delta, you
will be l'e to rn'ss nil

ou risa ihe batter able you will be

Washington special to the I'Li'iidi!
phia Timea: Both Congresiional com
mittet s for tbe campaign of 1H8I are
now organ:z.d and will sion be pie
pared to commence operations. The
Democrsta bsve the prest'ge of euc
cees in the cam pa a of IHHi. While
there may be tome diaagreementa aa
methecs they do not propose t) lote
tbeir vantage gronnd by qnarreli"r
with the admin at a 'on on technic! 1
iti'S. They propjse to held on to
what they have and take tli chances
for 1SH8. Ths Kepublican Commi tee,
which have always had the office
holders to draw upon, find themselves
cut off from tlitt source of revenue
and are tomewhst perplexed is to
where to get their funds, particularly
in the face of an off yerr atd doubtful
rriepects of any substantial g ia from
a luge outlay.
Ttie Dcinotra'ic Committee, the first
in the field, bave m de a very careful
canvats ot I h sanation, and claim
i hat tbeir chaucis if holding the next
House by as large or even larger ma
jority aie infini'ely betier than tbe
chances of the K'publicans making
substantial puns over thiir present
numbers. Tbe nnsant Democratic
insjerity in the House is f jity-three.
Tbe Republicans will be compelled
not enly to hold all they now bave.
but to cairy twenty-two additional
districts in order to overcome the
present majority against them. This
the Democrats claim they cannot do,
for the following reasons: In tbe
present Congress there are twenty
three Kepublion districts, held by
majorities rang ug from 60 to 1000
There are also twenty-live dittricta
held by tbe Democra's bv mtjorities
ranging from 64 to 071. There
fore, if such an improbable thing ns
laving all ct the twenty-three tmai:
mi.jjrity Republican districts and car
rying all ot tbe twenty-five imall-ma-jority
Democratic districts wera possi
b'e, the Republicans would come out
ahead; but as the chances of holding
their own are just aa goo.i for tne
Democrats as the Republicans, tbe
former bave a margin of forty-tbree
din ricta to draw from.
The Democratic committee bave no
fear of d i h snsion i f r jwing out of local
issues and claim that their forces are
in excellent order for campaign work,
on the issue of protection tbey claim
that in their strongest districts they
find the most s aunch sunporters of
the protective pricc ple and therefore
they fear no lueses in tbe industrial
diairlctf. Tbey also claim that the
nil ra free trade views of Frank Hnrd
has lost them ths Toledo district; that
tbe action of the Demncra'lc Commit
tee on Flections and cf tbe Democratic
House in making no compromise with
Uurd, but rejecting Lim completely,
was ample not Oration to the voteis of
the Tenth Ohio that the voice ot the
people would ba respectnd, Frank
Hurd to the contrary notwithstanding.
Tbe Democratic nominee this year, it
is understood, will be made with
referer.ee to the inteiests of the dis
trict and the party, which will insure
the election of a Democrat by the
usual majority.
There are a number of other districts
held by Republicans by a somewhat
similar tsnor, which are being looked
after in the way of (electing candi
dntea with a view to success on general
iisues, and which will be so much
gain to the Democrats. There will be
some gains, doubt'ess, by the Repub
licans, which would preserve the
present re!n'!on of parties, but whjch
would not change the aggregate leiuit
in the House.

hostile to Mr. Blaine at.d are in full
aixord with what ia known as the Stul-

Mr. Binchsin w as foi nierlv ens ot the
closest iriends of Bit. inc. but he split
off prior to the e'eotion of delegatei to
the Republican nattcnii convention ct
1SS4, and in that c invention made the
most effective aneech in favcr of the
nomination of Mr. Arthur.
Tbe linea in tbe election of chair
man and secretary were not drawn as
between Blaine and anti-B!aine. No
ullus'ons to any such idea were made,
and several of the members, it is said,
voted without the least impression
that considerations of such character
entered into the contest. Oil. Dudley
was urged as secretary on the ostensi
ble ground that he was one of tbe best
managers and wire-workers in the
whole party, and his c induct of the
Indiana campaign in 13S0 and the
Ohio campaign in 1884 waa pointed to
aa proof cf what he could do in manlp
ula ing election michicery and influ
encing voiere. But according to tbe
reports the Blaine adherents, who
wera in the majority on the commit
tee, were not uisro-ed to take any
chances, and, without making much
fuss about it, pat ia two men that they
knew could ba depended upon. Aa
understood now, whatever intluence
can ba exercised ia tbe direction of
the sffaira ot the committee will he
