WELLER PROTESTS AGAINST AUTOCRACT. A very emphatic protest was made by Mr. M. I Weller against this exhibition of what be called autocracy. The central committee, be said, is the leader of the democracy of the Dis- trict and ite funotions cannot be us by | suit the personne af he” comalten a- } ti sonnel o} com: - | though there was one man named whom he had never before heard of, but against the principle | of the thing. He said that there was no one | from East Washington on the committee, and | he said this was probably due to the fact ‘that | Mr. Norris conld find no‘one from that section | who was willing to do his bidding. He was | proud that this was so. Mr. Weller thought | that the resolutions ought to be referred to & committee to ascertain if they contained | statements proper for the committee to father, | but he subsequently withdrew a resolution to | that effect. ‘MR, XORRIS HAS THE INSIDE TRACK. | In the opinion of Mr. George Kileen, who as member of the advisory committee had the | right to the floor, the bestthing for the demo- | crats to do was to stop the Kilkenny fight and stand together to make the inauguration a suc- | cess. Mr. Norris, he raid, has the inside track and the central committee could not do any- thing. ‘This view of the case was not relished by Mr. Brown, who was of the opinion that Mr. | Kileen, as he was not a member of the com- mittee, ought first to be invited before taking up the time of the committee. Howover, Mr. Kileen’s right to the floor was maintained by other members and when this point was deter- mined Mr. Kileen had finished what he bad to say and had taken hisseat. ‘This latter fact did tilt of words be- tween Mr. Brown and Mr. Kileen. MR. HOYLE DEFENDS THE COMMITTEE'S CLAT. Mr. John Boyle made an earnest and effect- ive defense of the claim of the central commit- tee to be the representative body of the Dis trict democracy. He protested azainst the ig- noring of this committce. He believed that the people would not sanction it, and if the pro- posed inaugural committee is not backed up by tae poople where is the money coming from? He was afraid. however, that any action the commitice might take wo; not amount to anything. Ie, however, approved the resolu- tions, ‘MB. GARDNER'S EXPLANATION. Mr. Lawrence Gardner, who was present, but who is nota member of the committee, was asked to give bis opinion. He accepted the in- vitation, and said that there were a number of ta‘ements in the resolutions which, according to his information, were incorrect. However, he supposed that the committee were in pos- eseion of facts about which he knew nothing. aid that he was present at the Ebbitt House nd if Mr. Norris was guilty of any © in naming the committee he was also und so was the chairman of the central mmittee Mr. Hoimend as tho latter pro- posed more names tian he did.

THE RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED. “Ob, yes,” he responded, “Mir.

The committee adjourned shortly after 11 | o'clock. ee DEATH INTERRUPTED, | | Suicide of Gwyneth Mande's Mother Caused the Larceny Case to Be Postponed, A decided sensation was caused in the Marl- | borough street police court, London, yester- day, just before the case of Gwyneth Msudo, the handsome and aristocratic eighteen-year- old girl charged with swindling, was called. To the astoniehment of all present it was an- nounced that Gwyneth’s mother, probably ren- | dered insane by the charges made against her daughter, had committed suicide. This sensa- CUTTING DOWN SALARIES. Base Ball Players Must Take What They Are Offered. The National League finished ite labors last night and today its members will be the guests of President Jim Hart of the local, club who will take them to the world’s fair grounds and other points of interest. Yesterday's session was an eventful one, as it marked the death of high salaries in base ball. It was noon before all the magnates sp- peared and the meeting was called to order. From noon until 5:38 the powers in the dase ball world set aud logislated. When they finally adjourned for supper and a small army of reporters rushed in on “Nick” Young, who is always intrusted with the task of parceling out the news, he looked be- nignly through his glasses and said: “‘We went through our entire constitution and revised it, sud that took up the greatest part of the after- noon.” The changes which were mado are as follows: Each club witl be required to pay its annual dues of 2100 before the first day of Aprilinstead of May, as heretofore. The clause compelling clubs to furnish diagram of their grounds was cut out. The rule compelling a home club to calla game earlier in order to allow a visiting club to catcha train was c #0 that either club can demand that the game be called earlier. ‘Then the fine for failure of official scorers to send in their scores promptly was reduced from $10 to $2, and the cl were complete. They elected Geo. Howe of Cleveland an hon- orary member; appointed Brush, Byrne and you der Horst « committee on ral elected Phely an Botner tun en on 1H and Day directors for the ensuing year. It was decided that next vear the salary limit ofeach club should not excecd €30,000, and from that they will dwindle down to €24,000. The New York club, as ehown in its letter to its stockholders a few days ago, expects to get out with €25,000, and many of the others wit Boston will probably go to the limit, which will boa cut of about 40 per cent on the salary list started with last season. Anew difficulty presented itself when the league its work. It was found that the Pittsburg club had already signed ten of its men atamounts which would bring its list away above the limit, It was learned after the meeting that the Pittsburg club had been hauled over the coals for its hasty action, as it was understood at the lest meeting in New York that no players would be signed until after the meeting at Chicago. That was the agreement, and most of the clubs lived up toit. The Chicago club, when it paid off its players, told them that it wanted their services next season, but not under their present contracts, and that new ones would be made out and sent to them to sign. ‘The New York club bas been a source of considerable solicitude to the magnates, It was hinted around s+ Chicago that if the Chicago stockholders of the club wero to place their etock in the hands of a trustee and ask for a receiver, the oltb managers, instead of opposing such a scheme, would welcome it, It is said that there are a few of the New York club's heaviest stockholders who would jump at the chance to throw the club into bankruptcy, then to sell its effects at auction, buy in the franchise and pat it on its feet solidly, with New York capital behind it exclusively. ‘Tho present stock company, with its quarter of s million dollars of stock, is unwieldy and cumbersome, and New York is not liable to make much progress forward untilit is rid of it. Pat Powers spent a busy day trying to get layers for his club. He stated last night that he hoped to get Danny Richardson for second se. The night session was a short one. It was decided in tho future that no postponed/ games should be played until the last series unless there is a vacant date. During the Inst series of games between clubs all the postponed games rust be played off; henceforth, if there is a va-~ cant date following a series, the date shall be- long to the seriea. The schedule committee was abolished and Nick Young was intrusted ‘with the making of the schedule. By a unani- mous vote the double championship season was abolished, and next year there will be one con- tinuous season, beginning the lat Thursday in April and ending tho last Saturday in Septoem- ber. The playing rules were discussed, but no action taken oa them, and the committee in- structed to report at the spring meeting, which be held at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York, March 7. ———_—+e+— TO ESCORT THE PRESIDENT-ELECT. ‘That is What the Virginia Cavalry Hope to Do Next March. The Richmond State says: Col. W. F. Wick- ham, commanding the first regiment cavalry, Virginia volunteers, intends to take bis regi- ment to Wathington on the occasion of the second inanguration of Grover Cleveland as President of the United Statea. The colonel will tender his command, which will number probably 250 to $00 mounted men, as a special escort of honor to the Presicent-elect on that occasion, He hopes to make a display which will be creditable tothe regiment and bean honor to the state. * ‘The coldiery of this state have always been celebrated for their nobility and bravery, and ave held many positions of honor from the time of the revolution down. The cavalry arm of tho service has ever been foremost, and Virginia has cause today to be proud that she is the only state in the Union that has an organized cav- alry regiment. Never before have the men bad an opportunity to perform so pleasant a duty as that which Col. Wickham hopes to steure for them on March 4. ‘The governor was scen this morning by the colonel and enters very heartily into the spirit of the movement. He will use hie influence to get the cavalry ordered to the front. There seems to be hittle doubs but that the wish of the soldier boys will be cheerfully acceded to by the committee of arrangements for the inaugu- ration, and will also doubtless meet the hearty | approval of President-elect Cleveland. ———_--o-+—____ MARY WASHINGTON'’S MONUMENT. Opinion of the Virginia Supreme Court in a Well-Known Case. In the Virginia supreme court of appeals at Richmond yesterday Judge Fauntleroy de- livered an opinion in the Mary Washington monument case from the circuit court of Spotteylvania in which that court was sus- tained. The style of the suit was Colbert & Kirtley agt. Shepherd. The plaintiff sued the defendant for $20,000 for au alleged breach of contract. The declaration sets forth that the defendant agreed to scll to the plaintiff a cer- tain lot of land near Fredericksburg, upon which was the unfinished monument of Mary ‘Washington, but when the amount was ten- dered Mr. Shepherd refnsed it, The case was before the Fredericksburg courts and after several trials finally went before a jury in the circuit court at Richmond, where a verdict was found for the defendant. With the other ypers filed was this note from Mr. Shepherd "Thereby agree to give to Messrs. J. W. Col bert and W. F. Kirtley a sixty-day option on the lot a about two acres of land, with the Mary Washington monument and a large marble shaft thereon, for the sum of $2,500.” The defense argued that the contract did not stipulate the selling of the monument. — 8 SHERMAN’S FOLLOWERS STIRRED UP. Indignation Caused by » Labor Union's ‘Withholding the Monument of Tecumseh. ‘There was'a sensation at the meeting of the Army of the Tennessee at St. Louis yesterday. Rev. Father Thomas E. Sherman, son of the general, was invited jo address the gathering. He turned his remarks to the monument which the family is providing for the tomb of the dead general, the construction of which is delayed by the refusal of the striking granite cutters at Westerly, Conn., to allow it to be removed to the west. In a voice sad, but passionately indignan! Father Sherman said: 2 . ‘‘Just about the time the work was finished strike occurred in the granite quarries in the east, and the finished monument stands there now, and there is no power in this country, in state or nation, to move it—to move that mon- ‘ment from the hands of the anion.” ; suppressed indignation ewep' cover the audience ane the sontwith bis aria extended over the assemblage, his frame quiv- ering with emotion, continued: ‘They will not consent to let us have it moved Ui and I’ only know one wa; t it—and that ia was backing the scheme, and | ee Pate Peo So: enbuniee os or kissd Se nts and go | would ber in a vague sort off way, socurity for |" Fouk series: ives there and take it by force.

Some interesting facts regarding wages paid to telegraph operntors in Great Britain are submitted in a report te the State Department by Consul Sherman of Liverpool. He wa; In the government service telegraph operat- ors are divided into two classes, and the maxi- mum pay is fixed according to the size or im- portance of the town. ‘The weekly wages are as follow | First 6 ‘Tho second class of men contains twice the number in the first-class, and the women's classes are in similar ‘proportions. ‘The number of women employed is one-third of the total force, Eight hours constitute a day's work, and any time beyond eight hours is regarded as extra duty, and is paid for at one rate and a quarter of ordinary wages, i.c., for every hour of overtime the operator is credited with one and one-quarter hours. Night duty consists of seven hours, that is to say, every hour served between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. is regarded as equal to one hour seven and a half minutes. On Saturdays the operators are allowed one or two hours off if business permite, Operators are paid at the rate of one-forty-eighth of their weekly wag es for each hour they work on bank holidays and one-forty-eighth with one-quarter added for each hour worked on Sunday, Good Friday and Christmas in addition to their weekly wages. The railway companies main- tain and operate telegraph wires for their own purposes, such as the block system for signal- ing trains and messages concerning railway trafiic, They also maintain public telegraph wires, which are erected on the same poles as their own wires, for the post office. Operators employed at the railway offices are the servants of the various railway companies and are paid by them. The companies are al- lowed commission of 1344. (3 cents) for every telegram they forward or receive on behalf of the post office. The charge for inland tele- grams is half a penny (1 cent) per word, with a minimum charge of 6d. (12 cents). On the London and Northwestern railway the pay of telegraph operators is based on 365 days in the year. The question of Sunday overtime was gone into some years ago and it was arranged to give the operators an allowance of $12.65 per year or $1.05 per month in lieu of overtime, and this is paid them whether they perform one or more days’ Sunday dut: in the month. The scale of pay for telegrap! operators is $145.99 per annum, rising to $389.32 by annual increments of $24.33, and the ordinary hours of duty ure ten or twelve per day. Of course the pay of operators in charge is higher and according to. the class of station, rising from $437.98 to 2729.97. On the Midland railway the pay of telegraph operators is on the following «cale: First year, $97.33; E $170.92; fourth. $218.99; fifth, $267.65; sixth, $291.19; seventh, $316.32; eighth, €340.65; ninth, #864.98; tenth, $339.3: Salaries above $389.32are dealt withaccording to the special circumstances of each case.
