F. Anderson, one of the New York, Sept. 11—A “commit- tee of five of the ex-employes of the New York Central railroad who went out on a strike called on Chauncey M. Depew in his office at the Grand Central depot at 11 o’clock to-day. They were headed by Thomas Balls- ney, an old freight conductor, and Mr. Gaffney, another striker, acted as spokesman. The following con- versation between Mr. Depew and Mr. Gaffney folllowed: Mr. Gaffney said: ‘We have come to talk over the strike on the New York Central railroad.” Mr. Depew answered: “I'm afraid there is nothing to talk about. The strike is virtually over Kansas, Missouri, Michigan, Penn sylvania, New York, ;Massachusetts, Colorado and the Province of Onta- rio, Canada. In Missouri the prospect is report- ed to be poor for even an average crop. Michigan mekes a better showing. In Pensylvania the yield will be fair as far as can now be estimated The New York crop will be light. In Massachusetts early potatoes are fair but the late crop is suffering for rain. Colorado reports that the long continued drougth has seriously damaged the crop, so that only one- half of last year’s yield can be ex- peeted. In the Province of Outario, Cana- da, there are, as whole, a few com- plaints. The prospect is for a good average crop. Potatoes are selling on the local market atfrom $1.00 to $1.25 per bushel. Washington, Sept. 4.—The agents of the Louisiana lottery here sre very much put out over the action of the senate committee on post offices and post roads in so promptly re- porting the bill which 80 recently passed the house without any change. They say also that it is the intention of the senate to force this bill to an early vote and they begin to see that the United States is at last awake to the necessity of heroic meagures to wipe out this great evil which has existed in spite of adverse legisla- tion in the states and in the Federal statute books for years. One of the agents of the company said this af- ternoon: “The greatest mistake which our people made was in trying to secure a charter in North Dakota before they had exhausted every effort to renew that which they had in Louis- iana. This movement centered op- position upon us and undoubtedly led to the preparation of this bill, which cannot fail to prove disastrous to our business. Public sentiment seems to have been worked up so strongly against the lottery company that there is not a chance of defeat- ing the bill now, and I expect it to go through with a hig majority. I know what move our company will make next.” The opinion of the lottery lobby- ist that the bill is going through witha rush is shared by everyone who has any knowledge of the in- tention of the senate in this regard and it cannot be questioned that the law, as soon asit is signed by the president, will be enforced for some time at least, with all the vigor which the government officers can bring to bear upou it. In the meantime it is interesting to note that the seizure by the metropolitan police or the lo- cal office of the company here hus , at least temporarialy entirely closed the business of the Louisiana lottery company in Washington, and to-day the depsrtment clerks, who usually expend at least $30,000 to $35,000 a month in the purchase of lottery tickets, are unable to find a dealer in Washington who has the temerity to offer one of the slips of paper for sale.

It is ex pected that the grass fed cattle will make flesh very rapidly on corn and cut forage. Much of the Cherokee stook will go to southern Kansas and Texas ranges, and the half grown stock will be sent to Missouri for a year’s ripening before going to mar- ket hereafter if arrangements prove as profitable as anticipated. This is likely to make Missouri the great est beef state in the Union. EUCHRE FOR PRIZES TABOOED. | Leavenworth’s Chief of Police Creates a Sensation. Mr. Gaffney replied: ‘The strike is not over, because all the men on the road who are members of labor organizations have quit work and are now out.” Mr. Depew said: “They have chosen to resign their positions. Mr. Webb, who was managing the roadin my absence, took new men in their places when they quit work. His action has been sustained by the executive board of management of theroad. The places of those men have now been filled, and that’s the end of it.” Mr Gaffney then asked Mr. Depew to wait until the committee had discussed the matter and said that they would then return and make their propositions to him. Mr. Depew replied: “There is no use in making false promises to you. There is nothing more to be done. Idonot careto talk over back numbers. You have chosen to resign your places. Mr. Webb has filled them and I have nothing more to say.” The committee then left the of- fice. Miles’ Nerve & Liver Pills. An important discoyery.

Taking Superintendent Porter’s rough estimate of our pop- ulation and contrasting it with the recent Kentucky holocaust of high wines, Editor Wattersonsays: “Oyer amillion gallons of whiskey were burned—enough to give every inhab- itant of the United States a good drink.” On the basis of 65 million population this means sixty-four drinks to a gallon, sixteen drinks to a quart, eight drinks to a pint, four drinks to a half-pint, and there you have expert testimony on thecorrect size off Kentucky drink.

Sept. 11.—Several cases of hazing have occurred at Lafayette college during the week. Two young freshmen who were threatened with a visit by the kaz- ing sophomores warned the latter to-keep away, and last evening arm- ed themselves with ball bats. Soon after they had retired they heard hazers approaching the door, and when the sophomores broke down the door to gainan entrance they were met by the determined fresh- men, bats in hand. The first of the sophomores to enter the room was Juan Antonio Medina, a Spaniard from Tegucigal- pa, Hondnras, who was struck a ter- rible blow on the forehead and fell unconscious. Another sophomore was hit but not so badly injured. The hazers then picked up their wounded comrades hastily retired. Medina has been delirious all day andis now lying ina precarious condition. Itis feared his skull is fractured. His classmates have had him concealed all day with medical aid in constant attendance. Great effort was made to keep the matter lee Confidence Begot of Success. .

We will add for the information of our friends that the citizens of Washingtcn do not vote for anything at all;no members of the legislature, no aldermen, no constables, no delegate in congress, no nothing. The principal reason for this 1s that one third of the pop- ulation of Washington consists of colored people; that a goed many senators and representives.own pro- perty here and these republican statesmen who are so anxious to have the negro vote in South Caro- lina and Mississippi, don’t want any negroes to vote where they own property.
