Pennsylvania avenue was pretty well occu- pied with sleighs yesterday afternoon, but there was not much ofa carnival feature tothe oecupation. The permission which had been obtained for a “carnival” was utilized by the owners and hirers of sleighs to drive up and down the Avenue, ketween the Capitol and Sth street. A few feeble attemps at fan were made, but they did not satisfy the crowds who had lined both sides of the Avenue. One cut- ter, drawn by a dappled gray horse, and occu- pied by two very stylishly dressed young ladies, attracted more attention than any other rig. The ladies, apparently, enjoyed the promi- hence the oceasion offered’ them, as they per- sisted in driving up and down the Avenue until after dark. By seven o'clock. with the excep- tion of an occasional sleigh, the “carnival” had ended. “Good-Bye to Sleighing.” A WARM WAVE RAPIDLY APPROACHING. “Good-bye to sleighing,” said the weather prophet at the signal office this morning. “A warm wave is upon us, and its full effect will be felt to-morrow.” “What was the matter with the weather this morning?” asked THE STAR reporter, tNothing.” Was the reply. “That's exactly what the thermometer registered—zero. It was a little colder than we calculated upon, as zero is the minimum for this winter. Neither will the change to warmer weather be so gradual as expected. It has moderated very much all through the west. At Deadwood this morning it was forty degrees above zero. We expect & rise to-morrow morning of twenty or twenty- tive degrees over this morning’s record. That will make it thirty-five or forty degrees above zero to-morrow afternoon. With that tempera- ture the snow cannot last long.” ee ee He Said he was a Drammer. BEING ARRESTED AS A SUSPICIOUS CHARAC- TER, HE IS ANXIOUS To GET AWAY FROM THE cry. ‘Ten days ago a white man, about thirty years of age, registered at the Tremont house as Henry C. lioward, of Brooklyn, N. Y., and said he was a drummer for the Brewster carriage factory of New York elty. During his stay at the hotel, Howard made himself very agree- able and frequently conversed with Mr. Banks, the proprietor. One day while in the hotel he was noticed by Captain Briggs, formerly war- den of the Mountville, Va,, penitentiary, and itentified by him as'a former inmate of the enitentiary, where he served a term for igamy, under the name of Kline.

A frozen gas meter and a feeble stove made the first of the series of public meet- ings under the auspices of the Federation of Labor for the discussion of questions connected with the labor problem last evening both dim and chilly. The scanty light of the gas was supplemented by tallow dips placed about the room, and the interest of the men and women gathered there supplied to some extent the deficiencies of the stove, and so, altogether, the meeting was avery successful one. The presi- dent of the federation, Mr. E. W. Oyster, pre- ded, and introduced Mr. Osborn Ward, a special agent of the labor bureau, who made a Fer, interesting address upon the evolution of the labor question from a condition of ignorance and misinformation to one where its import- ance was recognized, not only in theory but in practice. He attributed this result in large measure to the labor lyceums, where workmen had met to discuss questions effecting their in- terests, and in this way they had acquired an Intelligent conception of their needs and rights. He believed that the magnitude which monop- olies had attained in this country was due to fhe ignorance whieh existed among_ the people io regard totheir rights. In the early days of the country the government had taken a hold of the postal business, instead of allowing t to fall into the hands of a company, and now let- ters were carried for two cents instead of twenty-five, and there was talk now of making the transmission of mail matterfree. In the same way the government could control and manage tho railroads, the telegraphs and even the coal mines, so that in the case of the latter coal could be brought to the door of the citizen of Washington for two seventy-five or three dollars per ton, and the pay of the miners could be doubled. nder the present circumstances the railroads controlled the coal mines, and compelled the one to pay twelve and fifteen dollars per ton. ‘The people had a right to con- trol these affairs,and all that was necessary was to demand it,and their great source of perce lay in the ballot and its Intelligent use. ‘0 secure the latter he could think of no better means to be employed than the free discussion, by the workingmen themselves, of the ques- tions which affected their interests. THE APPRENTICE QUESTION. The next speaker was Mr. Julian L, Wright, who confined himself mainly to a discussion of the apprentice question. He said that the number of apprentices that could be admitted to learn the various trades was limited, and necessarily so. It was a necessity because of the lack of a proper indenture law requiring the The iast speaker was Mr. Paul T. Bowen, who spoke of the true functions of membersof ‘Con- gress. He claimed that as representatives of the people it was their duty to glve attention to their needs, and the laboring people, when | they appealed to Congress, asked no favor, but simply availed themselves of their rights. genoa ood Real Estate Sales.
