OYSTER ALSO SPEAKS AT LENGTH. Representatives of twenty-seven trades, sev- eral lady Knights of Labor, at least one gentle- man of extreme socialistic tendencies, numerous Farmers’ Alliance members, a delegation from the Single Tax League, all of the Wage Workers’ Political Alliance (on one chair) and a few people who did not represent anything in par- ticular, were in the hall of the Federation of Labor last night. The meeting was one of the regular sessions of the Federation, ordinarily private, but the doors had been thrown open because Senator Peffer of Kansas was announced as the orator of the occasion. It was 8 o'clock when Mr. Sidney Maltb: called the meeting to order and introduced W. Oyster, who proceeded to enter upon an elaborate discussion of the immigration ques- tion. The speaker had a large ——, of newspaper material at hand and he quoted from it freely. He argued that had the advice of the laboring people been taken fifteen years usually large.

Atnaran’s.—Pauline Hall Opera Company in ago there would be none of these present troubles with foreign laboring material in the United States. Attention was directed to the | fact that when American workingmen long ago | objected to the importation of Inbor the policy they advocated was frequently referred to as being in line with the behavior of the dog in the manger. ‘Those who talked that way ten years or more ago were the ones who “did most of the complaining at this time. The anti-contract iabor law was said to be a failure, and it was so because it was not being enforced. But few people were caught, and those who did acci- dentally fall into the toils were not punished as they ought to be. Referring to the importer tion of Italians to work on the Aqueduct tun- nel, Mr. Oyster said there was nothing in the ment that they did less work than the native laborer and therefore should not be as heavily remunerated. He said they did just a8 much work as native laborers could.” Most | emphatically did he disavow the American workingman’s responsibility for the presence of the undesirable alien clement. Large em- ployers of labor and railroads with immense | grants of land they desired to sell at exorbitant rates must bear the burden. THE ONLY REMEDY. The only remedy was to give labor the same protection as was now afforded capital. ‘The American manufacturer got all the protection | he needed, and that same support should be given the iaborer. ‘The tariff would have to be on labor itself, and if the same relative tariff was laid on labor that had been placed on + the products of iabor the tax on each f coming to this country would be from 600 per head. ‘That would be practical prohi- bition. ‘The millionaires of the country then re- ceived some attention and especial mention was made of the statement that William Waldorf Astor was the possessor of £125,000,000. Hisin- ome, at seven per cent, was $8,750,000. The average wages of the laboring man in this coun- try would be about #1 per day, or if he worked every week day in the year, $313 per annum. If one laboring man worked every day for 6,000 years and saved all he earned he would | not have one-fourth aa much as Mr. Astor re- | in one year. It would take a laborer | ars—or take 27,959 laborers on ¥s—to equal the Astor income; an income which was derived from the labor of the men who didn’t get the income. “What are you going to do abont it?” re- marked a geritleman in the audience. Mr. Oyster did not_know, but he thought Senator Petfer might offer a suggestion or two. | It was enough for him to state that no man could accumulate so much money asa million | of dollars without oppressing some one.

SENATOR PEFFER'S SPE “This immigration question,” said the Kan- san, “was one of especial interest to this coun- try from the beginning of its history. We are anation of foreigners.” The settlements at Jamestown and at Plymouth were composed of foreigners, and until the birth of Virginia Dare all the white people on this side of the Atlantic were foreigners. Objection to the immigra-| tion of foreigners was quite recent, and natur- | ally so, because the early immigration was by | men and women who de-ired,to become part and parcel of this republic. The whole world was welcome even now if it only desired to be- come amalgamated. CONTRACT LABOR LEGISLATION. The history of contract-labor legislation was then briefly sketehed, the Senator displaying some surprise because there was general ig- norance as to the first act of Congress on this subject. It became a law, he +aid, on July 4, 1864, and it authorized any American to go into any part of the world to engage labor under contract. The railroad companies and the | manufacturers wanted more people in the | country and they wanted cheaper people.

Get together, men and women! Bring your forces together along one line. Ldon't care what you call that line xo long as you don’t call it republican or democratic.” There was applause following this latter remark, but the clapping of hands stamping of feet could not overpower a well-developed hiss. There was evidenly one partisan in the room. SENATOR EDMUNDS RIDICULED. ‘The Senator advised the workingmen to ab- stain from supporting any other candidates than those coming from their own ranks: such men would represent them fairly and would be above their creators. He ridiculed dmunds" sentiments as expressed in ‘iew published in Monday Stan; called him Dr. Edmunds and made satiri- cal reference to his diagnosis of the political situation. Mr. Peffer sud the people would not take Dr. Edmunds’ medicine because they were raising up doctors of their own; doctors of anewer anda better school than the old allopaths. “i will stop now,” said the Senator, pose the 7 pe “because Icame jown here, though, because I wanted to iden- tify myself with you workingmen and women. | God bless the “women!

For the first time in years the lovers of the manly art of self-defense were given an oppor- tunity of witnessing a ten-round bout with small gloves, without any interference or row- dyism. The fight, for such it proved to be, was between Walter Campbell, the instructor of boxing at the Schuylkill Athletic Club, Phil- adelphia, and Billy Nally, s Washington boy. The fight took place about eight miles from the city and was governed by the Marquis of Queensbury rules, the winner to receive $125 and the loser $25. All prelimina- ries having been arranged Bill Fergu- son of Norfolk stepped into the ring as referce and ordered the men to shake hands. Thomas Harris and Billy Sanderson were time- keepers. At the call of time both men sp lightly into the middle of the ring and sparred cautiously for an opening. _ Nally was the first tolend. |He swung his right for the jaguler, and, missing, sent his left home on the other side and got away in time to avoid a vicious upper cut. He followed at once with ahot rib Toaster and Campbell countered on the neck, simaltancously drawing first blood by a straight arm blow on the nose. The second round was cautions throughout. Nally feinted with his left and Campbell hit him 's hard one in the wind. getting away shortly after from s ewinging right-hander by by a clever duck. Nally closed the round landing heavily on Campbell's neck. The ‘third round was a repetition of the second. Both men were waiting for an open- ing and sparred cautiuously until the last minute of the round, when some rapid ex- | changes ensued. The fourth round was the best of the fight. Campbell led after some feinting and was caught by Nally on the ribs. ‘The latter changed his tactics and rushed his opponent. Campbell met him near the ropes and some rapid in-fighting resulted. In the break away Campbell sent a cross counter of a straight arm blow on the point of the chin and Nall ggered, considerably groggy. Campbell, wever, was unable to finish his man, who “You ‘Both men were very can't knock me out.” weak at the call of time. Both men came up smiling when time was called for the fifth round, Nally having recov- ered wonderfaliy. ‘This round and the suc- ceeding rounds were hotly contested, Camp- bell finally at the end of the tenth being declared the winner, having scored the great- est number of points. Nally at once advanced to the ropes and declared that he was ready to fight ten more rounds, but the fight was over. Campbell made a speech saying he would fight any man in the world at 128 pounds for $1,000 aside. Every one was surprised at the gameand scientific fight Nally made. He proved him- self a good man and with a little more ex- rience in the ring generalship he will be a Bard one to. best." Quite a number of men from Philadelphia came to witness the mill, among whom were C. Wallace, H. Koop, 8. B: Buck, Jno. Carrigan and W. G. Macauley. seumhassaibae art VETERAN FIREMEN.

A SLUGGING OCONTEST—THE OPENING GAME IN PHILADELPHIA TODAY—MANAGER TROTT's I¥- STRUCTIONS—HOW THE TEAM WILL WORK IN ‘THE FIELD. ‘The Washington base ball team wound up the exhibition season yesterday in good shape by defeating Baltimore ina heavy slugging match by the score of 18 to 17. It was asquare up-hill fight for the Senators, who were ¢en runs. behind when the Orioles scored their last tallies in the fifth. The burst of speed showed by the Nationals in the ninth inning, when they scored six times with but one man out, was the feat- ure of the game. The hitting was terrific at times. Baltimore made nineteen hits, witha total of twenty-six bases, and Washington se- cured eighteen hita, with # total of twenty-five bases. The batteries were: For Washington, Bakely and Hart for three innings, and Miller andfHart for the rest of the game; for Baltimore, Cunningham and Townsend for five innings, and Van Haltren and Robinson. Baltimore made ten hits and nine runs off Bakely and nine hits and eight runs off Miller, while Wash- ington secured twelve hits and’ ten ryns off _—— and six hits and eight runs off itren. Van THE NINTH INNING WAS A SIGHT. MeQuery reached first on an error by Wer- den and Hart hit for a base. Hatfield then made a three-bagger, bringing in two runs. He had to stay on third, while Smaliey went out at first from Gilbert's throw, but Miller hit to Gilbert the next minute and’on the wild throw he went to second, while Hatfield scored the third run of the inning. Hines hit for one base and Miller scored, and Paul went in when Beecher hit to the club house for three bases. Slow handiing of the ball in the outtield ena- bled Beecher to score on his hit, muking the winning run with but one man out. ‘THE INDIVIDUAL PLAYING. The fielding of both teams was better than the day before, six errors apiece being the score. The Senators hit and fielded as foliows: Hines, two singles, a double and one chance accepied; Beecher, a single and a triple, two chances accepted; Dunlap, a two-base hit and seven chances accepted, Visner, two singles, one chance taken; McQuery, three singles, eleven chances accepted; Hart, three singles, five chances taken, oue crror; Hattield, a single and a triple, cight chances accepted und two errors; Smalley, a two-base hit, three chances taken and three errors; Bakely, a ingle hit, two chances taken, and Miller, no hits, one chance accepted. ‘THE COLLEGE TEAM WON. The Columbia Athletic Club team met de- feat yesterday afternoon at the hands of the Dartmouth College, nine by the score of 11 to 5. For six innings the game was closcly con- tested, although the collegians appeared to be in betier form than their opponents, this being the first meeting of the Columbia team this Jear. In the seventh inning the Dartmoath men pounded the ball bard and the local men made several costiy errors, which settled the game in favor of the visitors, ‘The batting of Abbott, Heath and Boutelle and the batter; work of Barry and Shurtleff for Dartmouth and the fielding of Walsh and Green for the Columbia were the principal features. Base hits—Dartmouth, 12: Columbia Ath- letic Club, 5. Errors—Dartmouth 4; Columbia Athletic Club, 10. THE CHAMPIONSHIP SEASON of the American Association will open today. Washington's team plays in Philadelphia with the Athletics as opponents. Boston plays in Baltimore, Cincinnati at St. Louis and Colum- bus at Louisville. The first series will com- prise four games, aud then there will bea change. Washington comes home and plays Boston, Athletics play at Baltimore, Columbus at St. Louis and Cincinnati at Louisville. MANAGER TROTT'S INSTRUCTIONS. In the game in Philadelphia today Bukely and Carsey will pitch for Washington. Before the game yesterday in Baltimore Manager Trott took the Senators into a room all by themrelvos and jaid out his platform for the championshiy season, giving his men his ideas of how the game should be played, pointing out their weak spots, encouraging them in what they can do well and warning tiem of certain pitfalls that await every ball team. He made especial reference to the matter of coaching and general team discipline. Capt. Visner will have general charge of the men on the field, while Dunlap will act as captaia for the calling of in-tructions during the field innings. ‘Ihe coaching will generally be done by Visner, Me- Query aud Dunlap, but there is now a definite understanding that the base lines are ucver to be left unoccupied by some man whose duty itis tocall out to the base runners. Instructions were ree to the men to make their movements on the field quick and lively, especially in coming into the bench at the end of each inning. There is to be no loaiing of any description during the progress of the game and ever’- thing will be done to make the contests full of movement, THE BATTING ORDER of the Nationals will be about as follows during the earlier games at least: Hines, c. f.: Beecher, Dunlap, 2b; Visner, c. f.; MeQuery, 1b; McGuire and’ Hart, c.; Hatfield, s. s.; Suidlley, | 3b; Bukely, Keefe, Miller and Carsey, p. ‘The toliowing will probably be the batting order of the Athletics this ufteracon: Hallman, 2b; Lar 1. £5 MeGeuchy 3, Cross, catcher; Corcora: nd Weyhing, pitcher. ——_—_ Mi Smith Appiies for a Divorce, Mary C.

In the most exciting scramble of an election ever witnessed in Chicago, the republican leader, Hempstead Washburne, yesterday came out on top of the heap, the first republican save one elected mayor of Chicago in fifteen years. This at least was the apparent result as shown at 11.20 p.m., when 433 precincts ont of 513 hhad been heard from, giving him a lead upto that hour of 2,962 over the democratic candi- date, DeWitt C. Cregier, the present mayor of the city. The democrats had a formidable split in their ranks to contend with in the candidacy of ex-Mayor Carter H. Harrison, but the re- publicans were little, il better off in that respect owing to a “‘citizens” movement headed by Elmer Washburne, ex-chief of the United States secret service. Both Carter Harrison and Elmer Washburne, particularly the formei led a vote that was amazing to the straight party politicians.
