Cnaatural Lack of Opposit ion to t h e D e m ­ocrat ic Measure on the Part of t h e Tories—A French Cabinet Slate—Anoth­er Meet ing at Mltchel l town.

LoifDON, April 2.-—When the local gov­ernment bill comes up after the Easter re­cess of parliament it is probable that the opposition to i t may have become more erystalised and the amount of resistance which i t wil l encounter can be more easily foretold. I t i s a long step toward a more equable, not to say Democratic form of gov­ernment, and yet the Tories do not appear to be much alarmed at the possibility of its becoming a law. Whether the ful l sense of its provisions has not penetrated the heads of the bucolic squires, w h o for cen­turies have reigned the lords of their vi­cinities, or that they do not distrust any measure coming from their party, it is hard t o say, but they do not seem t o realize that it will sound the death knell of their power. Perhaps i ts endorsement by Mr. Gladstone and other Liberals will awaken them to a sense of its scope, and it is safe to say that there will be many a verbal t i lt before the bill passes, except upon the hardly possible contingency of its being hurried, through by strategy. One feature of the opposition is that the powerful liquor interest is becom­ing consirous that such a law may be tor­tured into an instrument of persecution, as they would probably deem it. The number of dealers in beer and spirits in London is startlingly large. By far most of them would agree that the power which would be given to the prospective.country council to

ploy promiscuous or perhaps interested re­striction, would cause any publican who felt that bis rights were invaded to cry to heaven and earth against the wrong done him as a man and a Briton, and would think the legal compensation offered in return for the destruction of his business an additional insult. It may also be mentioned that the prohibitionists have manifested a disposition to object to the bi'l as the granting of licenses will be one of the sources of remuneration of the new councilors, who, they charitably think, may not be inaccessible to personal considera­tions. Mr. Balfour's recent statement, re­garded in some quarters as rather para­doxical, that the United States was the most conservative country in the world and Eng land the next , may receive a new exemplin cation during the discussion upon the merits of this, the most radical project ever intro­duced by Tories. The more i t is considered the less possible it appears that the measure can pass without a struggle which may last during more than one session of parliament. The influence of the county squires and justices of the peace has been declining of late, and the passage of the bill under con­sideration would, in their opinion, take away the last support of the British consti­tution.

The third and last amendment is a new section to be inserted immediately before section 35, and applies to the administrative features of the internal revenue portion of the bill as follows: "Nothing in this act shall in any w a y change or impair the force or effect of any treaty between the United States and any other government or any laws passed in pursuance of or for the exe­cution o f such treaty so long as such treaty shall remain in force in respect to the sub­jects embraced in this act, but whenever any such treaty so far as the same respects such subjects shall expire, or be otherwise terminated, t h e provisions of this act shall be in force' in all respects in the same man­ner and to the s a m e extent as if no such treaty had existed at the time of the pas­sage hereof."

The cold weather compelled them to leave the woods and officers have been on the lookout for them. H e w a s lodged in jail.

GERMANY AND SAMOA. N E W Y O R K , April 2.—The Herald's Wash­

ington special says that the official corre­spondence between the United States and Germany .growing out of its recent troubles in the Samoan Islands, is about to be sent to congress to-day, and will show that this government has scrupulously refrained from increasing its prestige and influence in the islands by avail ing itself of the un­mistakable friendship which the natives entertained for this country. On the con­trary the United States have used their gc 3d offices to preserve the autonomy of the islands without any consideration other than that of protection to American inter­ests. Secretary Bayard, writ ing to Minis­ter Pendleton, says that he was surprised, in v iew of these facts, when he learned from the German minister on August 29 that the German government proposed to protect its own interests and nations 1 honor to the extent, if necessary, of declar­ing war- against King MeHeroa. The sec­retary then alludes to the action of Ger­many iu beginning hostilities aga'nst MaHeroa, which, he aueges, were, institut­ed six days before notification was received by the United States. He regrets that Ger­many'could not take a more libsraI view of the matter,and concludes that Germany's course can not be regarded as having been marked by that «onsideration which the ancient friendship between Germany and the United States entitles his government to expet,and that the present condition of af­fairs in t h e islands can not, in v iew of all the circumstances, be regarded by the United States as satisfactory. Permission is g iven Minister Pendleton in this letter to communicate Mr. Bayard's v iews to Prince Bismarck.

Chicago division which left the Union depot at 10:47 last evening was derailed about twelve minutes later between Oakley and Western avenues by a misplaced switch, thrown open by some unknown person. The engineer, one of the newly employed men, named James Baum, neglected to re­verse the engine when he found it leaving the track and the mail and baggage cars were also derailed. The switchtender at this point stated that a few'minutes before the occurence he saw a man run away from the switch and pursued but could not capture him. Some of the railroad officials wished to have it appear that the accident was the result of a bad frog and that it had no connection with the strikers. This same train ran over a broken rail at the Robe v street tracks and was almost derailed there. About midnight a Pinkerton man patrol-ing the track is reported to have been beaten and kicked in an unmerciful man­ner near the Paulina street crossing.

CHICAGO, April 2.—There has been no disorder in the Burlington yards so far this morning. The arrivals of stock since 6 A. M, have aggregated 847 cars, of which 150 have gone into the stock yards without any demonstration on the part of the strikers. Twenty-three switchmen are at work i n the Buriihgton yards. The Northwestern yards are quiet, and the men are at work. The Pan Handle was in the same condition. It is understood that the men will leave their engines as soon as "Q" or St. Paul cars are offered. This, however, may not occur to-day, the Burlington being occupied in making op trains for the Lake Shore, Wabash and Rock Island.

A train which the Burlington company made u p for delivery t o the Michigan Cen­tral was in charge of General Superintend­ent Besler and guarded by fifteen city police officers and about fifty Pinkerton men. Shortly after the train w a s placed in the Michigan Central yard, the switchmen of the road notified the yard-master that they would not touch it, and signified their in­tention of leaving their posts if asked to handle the cars. U p to noon no answer had been received from the Rock Island and Wabash roads in reply to a formal in­quiry by the Burlington if they would handle " 0 " freight.

A dispatch received at noon from Cres-ton, l a . , says: ' 'We are having serious trouble here. At least eight or ten of our new men have been assaulted on the street, and pretty badly pounded up. Last night a mob of 100 made an attack on the guards at one of the gates leading into the round house yard, and drove them off. About 75 Reading men came out of the bunk house, attacked the mob and drove them away from the company's premises. W e now have a force of 100 good men to repel any attack that may be made. If there is any further trouble to-day it will be no boys' play. The majority of the citizens are not in favor of the strikers. A meeting of the city council will be held this afternoon. Unless protection is assured for the new men on the streets and* at their homes, it is probable that the Burlington shops wil l be closed and all necessary work done at West Burlington until law and order is restored.

PHILADELPHIA, April 2.—Pennsylvania railroad officials say that they have not ex­perienced any difficulty in the movement of their through train, because of the strike among the engineers and firemen on the Fort Wayne & Chicago road. A t present they say the trouble is confined to Chicago and vicinity.

CRESTON, l a . , April 2.—Four enginemen in the employ of the "Q." have been as­saulted on the street by strikers in the last 24 hours. But one of the strikers was ar­rested, and he by a company policeman. A mob followed him "to the city jail and com­pelled his release. The strikers, who have heretofore been orderly and quiet, were aroused by the arrival of Pinkerton men. The city is in no condition to suppress a riot, having no extra police.

PHILADELPHIA, April 2.—Fifty Pinker­ton detectives, under the direction of Cap­tain Linden of the agency in this city, left town yesterday for Chicago, where they have been summoned to watch the strikers and protect the propeity of the various railroads involved in the strike now going on in that section of the country.

A FIGHT FOR LIFE.

and A White Man Shoots Three NegToes Escapes From a Mob.

LEAVENWORTH, Kansas, April 2.—Yester­day afternoon, as James King, a white coal miner, was walking along the street, he met Harrison Young, a notorious colored ward politician, Sam Hedspath and Ben Easton, also colored. Hedspath drew a knife and sprang toward King, while Young put his hand in his pocket saying: "Let's kill the ." A t this King drew a revolver and fired two shots at Young, w h o dropped down. King then turned on Hedspath and shot him, inflict­ing a fatal wound. He then shot Easton in the left thigh.

There had been bad feeling between the white and colored miners for some time. In a* few moments negroes flocked to the scene from every direction, carrying shot guns, rifles, knives , revolvers and clubs. King at once started to run up the river bank, "pursued by negroes yefiing at the tops of their voices. The mob fired s ix shots at King, who returned the fire. In a short time King sought refuge in the pump house of the water Works. A shout went up from the mob, who now thought they had secured their prize. The negroes swarmed through t h e Water works build­ing, searching with dark lanterns in every nook and corner, while the colored women urged them on. ^ Their search was una vail ing and i t was to his being able to hid-himself for an hoar that King owes his life

W h e n t h e mayor attempted to order the crowd jbkek, a dozen revolvers were point ad at him. The mayor then mounted a horse and started for Leavenworth to get a force of soldiers. In the meantime the en­tire police force had arrived and aided in the search for King. A squad of policemen finally found him crouched under an ob­scure stairway. They ordered him to sur­render, and he responded by leaping out with a cocked revolver ready to she ot. Po­liceman Street then shot him in the arm. While several policemen guarded the prison­er others went out and told the crowd that King was dead, having been shot by the police while he was resisting arrest. A cheer went up from the mob. King was kept secreted in the building until late last night, w h e n a company of cavalry ar­rived from Fort Leavenworth and he was taken to the fort to prevent lynching. King bears a good reputation, and has an inven­tion of a safety brake for cable cars on steep inclines. Young, on the contrary, was a notorious desperado and bully.

The Weekly Even ing Post . The N e w York Evening Post will begin,

on the third of May, to issue a weekly edi­tion, having for its pi incipal aim the promo­tion of revenue reform, which has become the paramount issue in national politics. The existence of an actual surplus in the treas­ury estimated to reach $140,000,000 on the 3Cth of June, 1888, a n d t h e further increase thereof under present Jaws, are a menace to sU business interests, and a direct incentive to wastefulness and corruption in the appro priations of public money. The attention of the people having been strongly drawn to this subject by the president in his last annual message, the need of information and popular enlightenment on questions of revenue and taxation has been increasingly felt in aH parts of the county.

It i s the'intention of the management to make a first-class weekly newspaper of 12 pages. Subscription price $1 per year. A free copy of the first number will be mailed anywhere on request. Send address on a postal card to The Evening £?ost, N e w York.

WASHINGTON, April 1.—The pioneers of the woman's suffrage movement had it all their own w a y yesterday at the Woman's Council. The morning session was given up to a conference of the pioneers. The thirty or forty venerable men and women who were thus designated were the attrac­tions of the stage. On the front row sat the noted six—Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stan­ton, Susan B. Anthony, Mary A. Liver more, Lucy Stone, Julia W. Howe and Ma tilda Joalyn Gage. Among the men on the platform were Frederick Douglass, Henry B. Blackwell of Boston, A. G. Riddle of the districtof Columbia and ex-SenatorPomeroy.

All the speeches were naturally reminis­cent. The old people, naturally garrulous, perhaps, talked to indefinite letogths, and if it was hot o w i n g to the fear they aH have of Snsaj i .B. Anthony's gl i t tering eya and descending gavel there is no knowing when the morning entertainment would have ceased. The audience, quite.as big as usual, was late gt&Jtjg seate$, and the session be­gan a hal i hour laie. The picture e n the stage of Lucretia Mott, • garlanded with smSax and crowned with lilies, was the shrine to which many a reverent eye turned.

When Miss Anthony called the meeting to order she said that iu memory of Lucretia Mott, who, with Elizabeth Cady Stanton, called together the first woman's conven­tion, and in spirit with the religious denomi­nation of winch Mrs. Mott was a member, all would observe a moment of silent invoca­tion. After that began the speeches.

Mrs. Stanton, in a charming, easy tone, told of her calling the first convention to­gether, and how in the long struggle she had never felt they stood alone, for she knew God himself and the lovers of liberty were with them. Incidents of the little meeting at Senaca Falls were told.

Fred Douglass was the next speaker, and said it was fifty-two years ago to-day since he was driven with hands tied to the auc­tion block to be sold to the highest bidder.

Lucy Stone talked of her work in Boston, when at a salary of $6 a week she made speeches for the anti-slavery movement.

Following her came her husband, Henry B. Blackwell, who referred in a pleasant way to the fact that his wife never took his name—saying she simply copied mother Eve . Who ever heard of Mrs. Adam or Mrs. E. Adam ?

Rev. Antoinette Blackwell, a sister-in-law of Lucy Stone, told in a grave way many entertaining reminiscences of their early college life at Oberlin, Ohio.

Miss Rachel Foster, the youngest lady in the movement, was presented by the Rev. Annie Shaw with a gold badge.

Mrs. Sewell headed the delegation of Sirs. Shattuck, Mrs. Johns, Mrs. Colby, Mrs. Shaw and Miss Foster, who each presented a basket of flowers to one of the six pioneer women.

Speaking of Miss Foster's services the Rev. Annie Shaw paid her a graceful trib­ute, which everybody here who has had any dealings with the young lady fully recipro­cates. While she spoke Miss Anthony, who does not often give way to her emotions, silently cried with joy. It was a touching scene, and brought to the surface the kind­ly, tender natures of these women, whom people used to think had no such pleasant phase in their characters.

Grace Greenwood (Mrs. Lippincott) read an address full of witticisms, concluding with the recitation of her own poem, "Mrs. O'Rafferty on the Woman Question."

Miss Anthony finished up the programme. Referring to newspaper attacks, she said she did not mind them nowadays, but at first they cut deeply.

John Hutchinson of the Jubilee singers led the audience in singing "Auld Lang Syne," and hungry and weary the meeting adjourned late in the afternc on.

THE PIONEERS' DAUGHTERS. The feminine descendants of the pioneers

in the woman's suffrage movement held a reception at the Riggs House in the after­noon. Miss Anthony in invit ing people to come and meet these young ladies said that perhaps there might be some curiosity to see these young women,who were raised in an atmosphere of woman's rights. The young lames had a large reception, mostly women, to be sure, and if gentlemen came they were maiiily old ones. The younger men made a great mistake. A comelier bunch of young girls are not often seen. Miss Anna Gordon, who is Miss Frances Willard's adopted niece, stood at the head of the column dressed daintily in white, then came Miss A1 ice Pur­vis , Miss Jenkins, Miss Alice Stone Black­burn, a.well known contributor to women's periodicals, Miss Lucy Anthony, the niece of Susan B. Anthony, Miss Lilian Hunt,the great granddaughter of Richard Hunt, around whose tea- table the Seneca FaUs convention was planned; Miss Southworth, granddaughter of Jeremiah Stark, the not­ed abolitionist; Miss Post, the granddaugh­ter of A m y Post; Miss Mosher, niece of Su­san B. Anthony; Miss Blankenburg, Miss Harriett Purvis, Miss Agnes Blackwell, daughter of Rev. Antoinette Blackwell; Miss Leathers, granddaughter of Mrs. Zer-olda Wallace, and Mrs. Edward Mott Will is , of the district. The young ladies were handsomely dressed, and greatly enjoyed the inspection and acquaintance of to many coming in and out.

THE EVENING MEETING. At the evening session Mrs. Stanton in­

troduced M'S8 Helen Gardner, saying that the last stronghold of the enemy was that woman's brains were not capable of ad­vanced thought or broader fields of duty because they weighed less than men's.

Miss Gardner, who wore a striking toilet of black ve lvet festooned wi th a vivid near let crepe shawl, walked into a deep, abstruse, philosophical, Smithsonian Insti­tution sort of essay, of brain, anatomical and anthropological, researches. Frontal lobes, gray matter , anterior portions, con

delegates have organized themselves into a federation to be called the Woman's Na­tional Council, or International Council of Woman. The National Council will hold triennial meet ings and the international quinquennial meetings. The following of­ficers have been named:

volutions, nobler proportions, Roland fis­sures and other giddy titles in common everday used with scientists flowed in a constant stream of useful information.

Mrs. Ash' m Dilke received a splendid ovation when she came forward, shy, pret­ty and hesitating, after Miss Anthony's complimentary introduction. Mrs. Dilke wore a stylish sage green satin made with a dark green jacket bodice and a full vest of the silk, crossed at the waist by a band of jet. The color rose prettily in her cheeks, and on her slender, aiistocratic hands gleamed several handsome rings. She spoke smoothly, w i th a very taking ac­cent.

She said that she was always profoundly impressed with the importance of woman's share in politics, that all they gained in learning and science was always at a risk, because, it w a s not backed with a vote. There are one or t w o radical differences be­tween political life in England and in Amer­ce . It-is easier to change a law in Eng­land, because it has no settled constitution.

" W e have gradually, in the past fifty years," she said, "increased the number of voters. W e wish to see universal adult suffrage. Women already vote in local af­fairs i n England. They h a v e a municipal vote, a school hoard vote and a poor law guardian vote. Unmarried women and widows' only can vote under the law. The proportion of women voting is quite as large as men. There is one bit of the English possessions where the women have full suf­frage, and, cuilously enough, this territory is called the Isle of Man. A woman's suf­frage bill has been again and again brought before parliament, and thert is one there now.

"The women working for this end have passed through aH the trials which they met here. To answer the old objection that women ought not to meddle with poli­tics, the Conservative party in ' England have done the suffrage movement a great deal of good. Mrs. Gladstone is the presi­dent of the l i b e r a l League Associations, and the Primrose League has virtually been on i l s knees to all the women of high sta­tion to bring their influence to the Conser­vat ive element. I should be the last to champion the suffrage movement if I thought it would lessen t h e charm of our homes. The cause of the women in Eng­land is already wel l in the swan ."
