REPRESENTATIVES OF LABOR ASSOCIATIONS OF THIS CITY AXD THE FARMERS’ ALLIANCE PRES- ENT—EESOLUTION FAVORING SUFFRAGE IN THE DISTRICT—SYMPATRY FOR STRIKING PAINTERS. Every seat and all availablo standing room in Grand Army Hall were occupied last night by ladies and gentlemen, friends and members of labor organizations. The occasion was a mass meeting held under tho auspices of Car- penters’ Assembly, No. 1743, K. of Ia. The members of the Carpenters’ Assembly marched to the hall from their assembly rooms a@ body, headed by Prof. Caldwell’s band. Several transparencies were carried which bore such inscriptions as, “Humanity before trusts,”*“Organization promotes temperance and industry,” “We extend a helping hand to all honorable toilers,” ‘We aim to better condi- tions, morelly, socially and financially.” ‘The meeting was called to order by Mr. P. L. O'brien and Secretary Totter of the Federa- tion of Labor was secretary. A COMMITIEE ON RESOLUTIONS was appointed as follows: Charies Cunning- ham, painters; Wm. Stickler, plasterers; Rich- ard Pumphrey, carpenters: J. W. Wild, music; | Cc. J. Wells, plate printers; Thomas Foley, bricklayers; E. W. Oyster, printers; E. F. Py- well, carriage makers, aud S. H. Bell of No. 2672, L. A. Secretary O'Bricn, in calling the meeting to order, stated bricfly its objects, declaring that it was called in the interest of organized labor and not ia the interest of strikes. THE FIRST SPEAKER introduced was B. B. Kucll, a momber of the Carpenters’ Assembly. After speaking at some length of the benefits to be derived from or- ganization, the speaker referred to the ques- tion of immigration. ‘The doors,” he said, have been closed to the heathen Chinee, but he is not the worst of themall. There are the Hungarians and Austrians, who are even worse than the Chinameu. We have nothing to fear from England. if they attempt to send over up labor we can soon lock the doors against ; em and throw the key in the ocean.” The only remedy the workingmen have, said the speaker, is to organize and reduce the hours of labor. [Applause.] “The hours,” continued the speaker, “must and will be reduced.” [Re- newed applause. } STRIKES. “We are not here to agitate strikes,” con- tinned the speaker. “We ara opposed to them and intend to avoid them when we can." He told of awealthy citizen in the north- on of the city who, hearing of the Why, those lazy ike is over I wou't en- painters’ st: fellows! I wi a im that way. dded the speaker, “is one who re. The real + working people, are mever ned assuch. They are the real tax- aud they pay the taxes through the wn as a real estate agent.” GTO THE ‘CENTRAL RAILROAD STRIKE in New York, Mr. Knell criticised some news- paper accounts of the affair and aaid that Vice President Webb who had accused the Knights of bei auk would ha,» been a pauper now ~ vs for his wife's money toid of a farmer who last week sold ten bush- els Gf potatues for $3.30, for which the con- sumer paid $32. and asked whether that was a fair division or not. When a strike is ordered or a demand is made for higher wages the ery is “Ob, no. the business will have to stop.” but they don't say so when tho builders’ exchange raises the price of material. Of course not. “There is no way of maintaining your rights and prevent being robbe i,” concluded the speaker, “except by joinizg labor organiza- ‘They provide ior the sick, the widow and the orphaa and thow the road to prosper- ity.” [Loud applause.} SOMETHING ADOUT THE FARMERS’ ALLIAXCF. President Polk of the Farmers’ Alliance was detained at home on account of sickness, and Mr. N. A. Dunning of the editorml staffof the Farmers’ Alliance spoks in his stead. “Icame here,” he said, “to say something about the Farmers’ Alliance. I's big brother of yours (the K. of I.) It is by rugged, two-fisted and broad shouldered. Lately it base beea striking some hard blows from the shoulder. [Applause.] The Farm- ers’ Alliance,” be continued. “was organized in Texas about the year 1876 to guard against the inroads of cattle aud land thieves and it has been FIGHTING THIEVES ever since. In 1934 the first State Al formed. In 1335 the Co-operative Union was formed in Louisiana. Eaoh sent delegates to the other's meetings, and in 1887 the two or- anizations joined hauds as the Farmers’ and [remo Co-operative Union. A year later the State Wheel was organized in Arkansas, which also joiued the other body and it was then called the Farmers’ Alliauce and Inanstrial Union of America. The organization was then principally in the cotton belt, When the jute bagging trust was formed and the price was in- ased from three to four cents per pound to Gfteen to sixteen cents the union made a suc- cessful tight. and now no farmer is so poor that be has to deal with the trusts. [Applause.] MOTTO OF THE ALLIANCT. “Equal rights to all and special privileges to none.” the speaker emphasized as tLe motto of the Farmers’ Alliance. which, he said, is now organized in thirty-on Where the alliance organiz out and fraternalism is builtup. There are, he said, fourteen hundred papers advocating its cause and one thousand others that will print tts doings. ‘The alliance, -he continued is not a political organization, but its members are full of politics. When a man joins tie alliance he must not leave his old party, for by st there he may be able to do more good. Ireached I learued that all a man had to lose was his money and character. He has vote.” ing to Congress he spoke of it as a “beer gardeu with an occasional tight to en- tertain the people who come in from the country.” A PREDICTION. Ho predicted at the next election the alliance would elect twenty-iive Representatives, two v $ Senators, four governors and} that nine-tenths of the others would be on the | ragged edge. tie denounced the caucus system and advocated the running of telegraph lincs attd railroads by the government. “When the Talroads are ran in the interest of the people.” | coucladed th © speaker, “no, one cau ‘say site| eople ,’ because ople mi, be pact him.” re Sy RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED. ee on resolutions then reported 2 The comn the following: Whereas it is apparent that the interests of traftsmen are materially advanced by organiza- tion of the respective trades. And, whereas, | under existing tendencies of employers and eapital to form trusts and combines, it is! absolutely necessary that wage-workers should organize for self protection; and, whereas, it is manifestly unjust to those who have borne the weight and brunt of organization thus far for others to remain aloof while enjoying the benefits that are the result of union, caches, Resolved by L. A. No. 1748, K. of L. (car- mters und joiners) of the District of Colum- iu id mass Meeting assemb!ed: _Pixst. That we hereby extend a hearty in. Yitation te every competent carpenter in the District of Columbia to join us and ussist in making the union more perfect and influential Second. That we declare it to be unmanly and dishonest, while holding aloof, to accept | aud share in the benefits of increased wages aud shorter hours thatare the results of the labors of others through organization. Third. That Local Assembly, 1745, K. of L., most heartily indorses and approves of the ef. forts on the of Painters’ Assembly, K of L., of this District to ottain the cight- hour work day and that we pledge them he hoped to see the time when he could paste a shinplaster on Brother Dunning’s bald head and send him ail the way to 'Frisco. [Laugh- ter.] While he did not intend to make a tem- | memes speech he desired to tell his brother nights that a clear head and cold water could accomplish moro than mixed-up brain and whisky. He dwelt atsome length upor the free coinage of silver and upon the immigra- tion question. The er denounced the caucus system and told how the party caucus made men vote against their own convictions and against the interests ef the country. He urged upon the wage workers the necessity of orgunization, which, he said, bad increased wages and decreased hours. He spoke until nearly 11 o'clock, when the meeting was ad- journed, ahaiasigghtesesictatl FOOT BALL. Capt. Cumnock Wants a Game for Har- vard With Princeton. The foot ball season opens at Harvard on Monday next, four days before the university. All the principal men, or those who are now regarded as principal men, will be back and work begin. Ever since September 1 men who expected to try for the "Varsity foot ball team have been taking light exercise, such as run- ning, wrestling and sparring, so that when they return to Cambridge they will bo better able to stand the rough-and-tumble practice on the field. Capt. Cumnock is determined this year to have his men in good condition to stand whatever work he may put them at, and for this reason he has had them start practice so early. Capt. Cumnock, in an interview. thus gave his opinion of the outlook: ‘The season does not open much more favorably than that of last year, for then neasly every one was very san- guine of our success, and we worked very hard to wimthe championship. In one respect, how- ever, we are very well off—there is more mate- rial. In fact there is so much that it will be a harder task to sift it down to the ‘Varsity eleven than it was last y ‘The freshmen class probably bring its usua! quota of new players. As regards the Yale and Princeton teams Capt. Comnock sa: “The Yale game will come probably the Saturday before ‘Thanks- giving and will be played in Springfield. Yale will have a good team. Sho always does. They might say that she was weak in safe kicking on account of the loss of her full back, MeBride, but I don’t believe it. They know more down there than they tell. The Harvard boys feel sure that they are going to have a team this year that can beat 2 team equally as good as last year’s Yale team. I do not think Princeton will be so strong this year as last year. Dol want a game with the Princetons? Most as- suredly for my own part, but I fear that such a thing will be an impossibility. It will take a long time to repair the breach made between us by our withdrawal from the leaguo after our game with her last November.” At Princeton the foot ball season began yes- terday with a run on the ‘Varsity grounds. ‘Thirty men came cut to play, and practiced kicking and falling on the ball with much snap. The team will be weakened by the non-return of Ames and Cowan, The prospects are only fair, but Capt. Poe will receive the hearty gup- port of every man in college. Training in track athletics began also. A. b. George of the hattan Club is trainer. Jim Robineon, P ton’s old trainer, will be greatly missed in all athletic departments, Capt. Rhodes of the Yale Foot Ball Team arrived in New York yesterday, and in the afternoon, together with Bliss. Elcock, Harvey, Heffelinger aud two or three others of the Yule team, practiced on the gymnasmm lot, ‘Today werk in the Yale field will be com- menced. Practice on the field will begin the earlicst this year of any in the history of Yale. - - +e. UTAH WANTs A BIG SHOW. What She Proposes to Exhibit at the World’s Fatr. Mr. P. H. Lannan of Salt Lake City, world’s fair commissioner for Utah, has applied to the 2 on site for ten acres of ground for Utah’s display at the world’s fair. He says that all of it will be utilized. The main building wili consist of a mineral palace, constructed wholly of Utab minerals and building material, Inside of the central court. 100 feet square. will be a series of galleries. The floor of the court will be an exact reproduction of the surface of the territory of Utah—mountains, lakes, cities, towns, streams, railroads and everything re- produced on a proper scale as to size and rela- tive location. Four wings wili contain agricul- tural, mineral, manufacturing and art exhibits. The walis of the galleries will be decorated with paintings of Utah’a scenery. Modeis of the mills of her most wonderful mines will be con- structed and a prominent featare of the mine exhibit will be an ingeniously con- trived imitation of the interior of the great Ontario silver mine, from which $17,000,000 have been taken. Placer gold mining’ by hydraulic process will be repro- duced. Free concerts and other entertain- ments will be given in the main galleries each afternoon and evening during alternate weeks by the various musical and other organizations of Salt Lake City while the exposition lasts, One of the most unique features will be a ro- production about an acre in size of the Great Salt lake. 00 BURNED IN A STABLE. Two Brewery Employes Lose Their Lives in Attempting to Save Horses. Two men and twelve horses were burned to death in a fire in the stable of Valentine Loewer'sGambrinus Brewing Company, in West Alst street, New York, yesterday and two other men were seriously burned. The stable was a one-story frame building. The central part of the building was used as a cooperage and this was set ou fire by,the flaming up of a big pitch kettle used to boil pitch to line beer kegs, The workmen, on finding the place on fire, started to rescue the horses, ‘Ihe smoke in the stables was then so thick that the interior could hardly be seen, A dozen of the horses ran out and Conrad Hosbach, the foreman, Stapf, Dern- berg and Fritz Tychenlin, an apprentice, fol- lowed them. Hosbach. Stapf, Dernberg and ‘Tschenlin tried to rau back into the building to drive out the rest of the horses, It was cer- tain death, and the firemen drove the men back. Stapf and Dernberg dodged by them into the building. A moment laterthey ran out again frightfuily burned. Hiosbach aud T'schenlin, when the firemen prevented them from going m the frout way, ran around into Teuth avenue and went into the stable. That was the last of them, ‘The fire was stubborn; the smoke was dense and held the firemen off. They soaked the neighboring buildings, bu: it was half an hour JAY GOULD Is HOPEFUL He Sees Only Prosperity for the Whole Country. Jay Gould in an interview in the New York World takes a hopeful view of the business out- look. “How do you view the financial situation?” asked the reporter. “I do not consider that there has been any actual financial stringency,” said Mr. Gould. | “Atno time has it been difficult to obtain money at 7 and 8 per cent on good col- lateral. The trouble has been that the bor- rowers havo ‘tried to effect loans on non- dividend paying securities. Whatever strin- gency existed was confined to speculative quar- ters, There has been enongh money. The difficulty has been to provide the means for borrowing it Not as much money is needed now as formerly to do acorresponding amount of business. Business is now transacted by means of checks. Formerly people had to carry bags of gold and silver or bie packets of currency to make pur- chases, Now they present their checks and settle balances instead of paying over total amounts,” “There is more or less sentiment in favor of abolishing the subtreasuries and depositing the government funds in banks in order to keep them in circulation. Does this pian im- press you favorably?’ ‘This question will be di d of in the nat- ural course of events. I do not regard with much favor the plan to make the banks depos- itories. During a republican administration the money would be putin republican banks, and during a democratic administration it would be putin democratic banks. Security would have to be furnished to the governmont, so that not only would the deposits change, but also the security,” “Does the new tariff tend to interfere with tha prosperity of the country?” “Ido notthink so, It is a radical change and radical changes naturally unsettle things for atime. There are provisions in the tariff which 1, as an individual, do not approve. I am a protectionist, however. I believe in imposing a tariff which shall protect our indusirics, but still not be prehibitory.” IN FAVOR OF RECIPRocITY. “Do you believe that the country should gravitate toward a lower tariff in general?” “In a measure, do. I think that the inter- nal taxes should be reduced as fast and to as great an extent as practicable.” “How do you regard Blaine’s plan of reci- procity?” “I look upon it as a logical propcsition. It, first of all. possesses the morit of being based on business principles. It is a proposition such #8 one business man would make to another. ‘The goverument, to be a staple one, should be conducted on business principles as well asa private enterprisc. Why should the sugar of Cuba and other countries be admitted to the United States free of duty if we obtain no ad- vantage for the conces Cuba my attention wa: of Spain to aupply the island with flour. The markot more naturally belongs to us if we open our ports to Cuba's sugar,” “Is the pre healthy oue “I consider it healthy, It looks to me as if a long period of prosperity were before us, The wheat crop this year is short, but enough of an advance in price on the old wheat on hand will be secured to make up the difference to tho farmers. Itis true there will not be quite so much business for the railroads to handle.” “Is it possible for a general panic to occur in this country?” ut condition of the country a NO FRAR OF A PANIC. “I see no way in which it could occur except by an overthrow of the government, and that I donot expect. There may be local convulsions, but there can be no panics of the old style. The system of transfers by telegraph and cable make it possible to obtain money almost in- atantancously when there is great need for it. People in the money centers of Europe watch our financial conditions as we do theirs. If we need money badly enough to offer high rates of interest they immediately lond to us. The new system of quoting money made the recent demands appear more urgent than they really were, It used to be the custom to aay, for in- stance, ‘one-half of 1 per cent and interest.’ Now the rate is quoted 188%¢ per cent. This exvis ef quotation sounds portentous and scares eople.”” ak 8 there anything in our system of govern- ment that interferes with the progress of the country?” “No. We havea good government to live under in peace and prosperity. Whatever faults may arise are corrected by the people themselves. If an administration does not suit the people they change it and so strong is the country that a change is attended with no internal convulsion, After a long series of re- publican Presidents the people elected Mr. Cleveland, ‘The change was peaceable and public affairs were not interrupted. There were many People who wanted to continue Mr. Cleveland in office for a second term as a mark of approval of bis administration, but he was defeated. A republican President took his place and events continued in their even course.” “Is there anything in the stock market to excite apprehension? “Nothing that I am able to see. There is no general inflation, and I should say that vaines tended upward rather than downward, ‘Chere is not much railroad building going on now. People who have railroad enterprises find it hard to raise money for them and therefore ex- cessive construction need not be feared. There will not be much railroad building as long as the inimical legislation continues. I was asked to build some branch lines in Texas, When I tulked with people who previously had promptly invested in such enterprises they de- chned to advance inoney on account of the fear of adverse legislation. The situation is the same in Iowa.” nen TO OPPOSE MR. McCOMAS. Mayor McKatg of Cumberland Nomi- nated by the Democrats. The democratic convention of the sixth Mary- land congressional district met yesterday at Hagerstown for tho purpose of nominating a candidated to run against Hon. Louis Mc- Comas, ‘hore was considerable discussion of candidates during the morning, but when the convention met at noon the Allegheny delega- tion had made a decision in favor of Mayor Wm. M. McKaig of Cumberland, and his nomi- nation went with a rush, The convention was called to order by Col. Buchanan Schley of Washington county. W.B. Bonic of Montgomery was made chairman, and €, O'Donnell and C, 8. Little secretaries. ' ‘The vice presidents of the convention were Harmon Brown, W. K. Getty, A. B. Betts, Col. Geo. R. Dennis and A.

They Are Having a Noisy and Pro- tracted Convention. ‘The South Carolina republican state conven- tion reconvened yesterday in Columbia. The committee on credentials reported in favor of seating all the Miller contesting delegates. After a sharp contest Miller and Webster cap- tured the convention and mado Mr. George W. Murray, a negro of Sumter, permanent chair- man. Brayton was entirely ignored. Since ue nomination of Murray Brayton’s friends have determined to put him in the field as a candidate for Congress against Miller im the ouly republican district in the stete, the seventh. This will insure the elec- tion of a democrat and the return of Congress- maa Elliott, There isa strong disposition to nominate a state ticket and the question is now beimyg discussed. The platform has not yet been reported by the committee. The con- yentidn is a very noisy body and works slowly. Miller and Webster are workin; together. Miller is the contestee for Fiiot ‘3 seat in Cougress and Webster is the collector of in- ternal revenue who succeeded Brayton, who was removed by Presideut Harrison, oe Fatal Family Feud.

Briefly stated, the points upon which the above claim is based are these: That— 1. The Star has three times the ciren- lation of nny other paper ia Vashbing= tont 2 The Star’s circulation in Washing: tou is double that of all the other daily papers published in the city added to- gether!! 3. The Star has n larger and fuller circulation in the city where printed, in proportion to reading and purchas ing population, than any other news paper in the world!!! 4. The Star has the targest regular and permanent home circulation of any two-cent afternoon paper in the United States !tt! In support of these claims and to show the constantly increasing circulation of the paper, attention is invited to the figures following: PAILY CIRCULATION IN I835-86-87-88-88 “ESS3. ISS6. A887. I8N8, 1SSD, JAX...20,486 23,388 25,470 26,386 27.541 Fas...22,029 24,321 26,299 27,161 29,200 25,009 27.490 34,768 25,573 27,166 29,852 23,742 25,116 26,7. 27,433 3 26,383 23.54 25,524 25,916 2Nsta 26,752 22,123 23,682 25,484 27,082 Incroase ....... 1,559 1,803 1,598 Of this remarkable average aggregate of 90,090 copies circulated daily, no more thap 1,102 copies are sent out of tho city by mail, and 1,106 go to suburban places, by express, railway trains, etc., leaving as a net circulation im the city proper the PHENOMENAL Pko- PORTION of 923, PER CENT, or AN AGGIE- GATE of 27,882 copies! Of this number, 21,142 were delivered daily by regular carriers at the homes of permanent sub- scribers. The remaining 6,740 copies represent the sales over the office counter, at the news stands, end by newsboys. But of this latter number a very large proportion is supplied regularly to per manent residents of the city living in lodgings, &c. (not householders), 80 that its whole circula tion may be literally said to be in the family Circle. While its aggregate circulation there fore gives Tut Sran a distinctire and «nviable position in modern journalism, the fullness of its home circulation, the extent to which it is relied upon by members of the houschold, and particularly by the pare chasing portion of the community, are the marked characteristics of the paper, to whjch no other daily journal now published can furnish a parallel. This is no idle boast on the part of the paper. It is a well established fact, demonstrated to the full satisfaction of the sagacious and enter- 26,166, prising business men of Washington, who seek and know where to find THE LARGEST RETURNS FROM THE MONEY PAID OUT FOR ADVERTISING. This is proven by the growth of Tux Star's advertising patronage. Nothing can more illustrate the esteem in which «anv article is beld by the public than a constantly increasing demand for it—day by day, week by week, month by month, and year by year,—in the face of ad verse claims and pretentious competition. The figures following tell the story on this point: NUMBER OF NEW ADVERTISEMANTS ¢RINTRD Et 1885-86- 87-88-30, Iss7. 3.615 3.847 4.669 3,478 5,395 4,522 3,38 3.170 4,517 5,313 5,038 5,093 surely 1889. 4.556 4,529 5.498 3.585 6.033 3,529 4.483 4,604 5.880 6,589 6,107 5.7935 1888, 4.076 3924 4,603 4,956, 3,178 4,696 3,915 3.305 4.004 5,412 4,689 5,007 TOTAL £1,199 45,910 54,038 54,501 65,523 But it is not alone in numbers that the great increase of advertising is shown. The larger space required for advertisements during the ‘The average daily space filled by advertise ments in 1885 was 25.10 columns, or 7779 columns for the year; whereas for the year 1889 the daily average was 29.75 columns, or 9223 columns im the aggregate, being total gain over the pre vious yearofi@44columns! And this, it mast be remembered, consisted exclusively of the ordinary everyday business advertising, nothing in the way of tax sales, poll lists, election returns, @te., such as occasionally swell the business of ical organs, being included im its patrom oge. * In conclusion, it is only necessary to say that, fm proportion to the extent and high character (Of its circulation, Tux Stan's advertising rates take rank with the very lowest in the country, and to add, finally, that every statement hereis
