THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 31, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. THE LABOR OUTLOOK Cheering Prospects for the Year of 1896. FOREMAN BISHOP SPEAKS OF PLANS Granite Cutters Expect Important Buildings Erected. TO PREVENT STRIKES General Worthy Foreman M. J. Bishop of the Knights of Labor, whose home is at Scituate near Boston, Mass., was in Wash- ington last night, and was seen at his hotel by a Star reporter, who asked Mr. Bishop to give The Star hts opinion of the labor outlook for 1896. In reply Mr. Bish- op said: “From our outlook the prospect is more than bright. The Knights of Labor belicve that the ideas which the organization repre- sents are becoming favorably considered by @ iarger and more influential number of people than ever before in the history of the organization. “The basic difference between our own and the open forms of labor organizations is the advisability of independent political action. The Knights of Labor believe that most, if not all, the objects desired by the working classes, not only of Amer- fea, but also of the world, can oniy be obtained through intelligent legislation, and we consider it the duty of all who can be called producers to support with their in- fluence and vote the party that will most quickly secure the enactment of such leg- islation. ‘Contrary to a generally accepted theory, the Knights of Labor have ne compulsory control over the vote of their members, but its propaganda is in the line of demon- strating to the workers the necessity and importance of uniting, politically, to secure the rights which belong to them, and in this work we are now making most sati: factory progress. Gi “Throughout the length and breadth of the land, among both the urban and agri- cultural population, our views are being vaccepted to a greater extent than ever be- fore in the history of our organization. “We have no quarrel with capital or capitalists as such; we have neither sym- Paihy nor support for the demagogue who would array the classes against each other, but we have a desire to revolutionize the in- dustrial system which makes possible cap- ital and capilalists as they today exist. Alive to Opportunities. “This system is responsible for all the configs and all the disagreements that have arisen in the labor world, past or present, and only by the methods ad- vanced by the Knights of Labor can any permanent change for the batter be ac- complished. s “The evident general acceptancs of our views today renders the situation full of hope, and we have no doubt that the com- ing year, 1896, will demonstrate that the intelligent ‘voters of the United States are in the present crisis as fully alive to their necessities and their opportunities as they ever have been m tae several supreme crises of the past. “We have in our order a cohesive, united and progressive organization, steadily working toward a common goal, and while taking advantage of every incidental ex- pedient which may temporarily benefit the membership, we never propose to lose sicht of the ultimate object for which our organization was founded. “We believe that the present situation among political parties is also full of hope for the community and a cause for con- gratulation, particularly to our own mem- bers. There are strong causes at work with- in both of the old political parties, against whcse metiods we have constantly pro- tested, which demonstrate that the dissolu- tion of one or both is not far distant, and when that climax arrives the opportunity of the worker will have come and the labor of divorcing men from the normal political creed to which they have in the past been attached will have been rendered more easy, if not entirely overcome. “Ordinary trades unionism confines its ef- forts wholly to trade questions, of hours of labor, and entirely ignores the higher eco- nomic education of Its members, and the ex- perience of centuries of this particular form of organization has demonstrated its com- plete fa‘lure to more tnan temporarily re- lieve the miseries under which the workers of the world suffer. “Enlightened self-interest, as understood by the Knights of Labor, will without doubt entirely remoye the ignorant selfishness which has heretofore prevented large bodies of the workers from acting as a unit in the establishment of their political and indus- trial freedom. To Prevent Strikes. Im speaking of the bill intended to prevent strikes, etc., which has been introduced in- to the House by Representative Thomas W. Phillips of Pennsylvania, chairman of the House committee on labor, Mr. Bishop said: ‘Mr. Phillips’ bill has already secured the united support not oniy of the Knights of Labor, but of every other labor organiza- tion as far as heard from. “The Knights of Labor, previous to the in- troduction and without any knowledge of the contents of Mr. Phillips’ bill, discussed the advisability of a measure drafted on al- most similar lines, and have indorsed the principles contained in the Phillips bill at two censecitive annual meetings of the gen- eral assembly “The bill thoroughly practical, and is evidently the result of matured thought and the most careful consideration, and, in my opirion, no man in any condition of life can object to the adoption and enforcement of its provisions. “Providing as {t does for the establish- ment of a labor commission composed of three divisions of seven members each, It will, if enacted Into law, represent the agri- cultural, business or capital in its various forms and the urban industries. In this body the condition of labor will be consid- ered, and it is expected suggestions will be made for such legislation as In the judgment of the members will tend to harmonize con- fileting interests and eradicate the many causes for disagreement which are now con- tinually arising. “The bill also provides for suffictent salary to make !t possible to secure a high, if not the highest, class of talent In the various in- dustries. and also makes provision for ex- pert legal advice for each division of the committee, and Its enactment will open up a new era for the workers. Mr. Phillips cer- tainly deserves the thanks of all classes for bringing so prominently and so intelligently before the whole people the necessity for a commission of this character. Mr. Phillips’ action in this regard {s looked upon by some persons as remarkable, as he is a very large employer of iabor himself, and might very naturally be supposed to object to any measure which would In any degree tend to reduce the profits in his own industry. Granite Cutters. Vice President James Duncan of the Federation of Labor in talking of labor prospects for 1896 took a very practical view, and said he would confine his re- s to the cause of the granite cutters, national unfon he 1s the grand “Prospects for our trade and union for said Mr. Duncan, “are much better than have been similar prospects in the past few years. Congress Is expected to come to the rescue with several large buildings and coast defenses, and many states have large appropriations for Improvements, nesrly every one of which will require stone cutting. “Prominent in this Ine may be men- tioned the $9,000,000 in New York state. These will inspire individual enterprise and a slow, steady advance in the amount of men require! may be expected from the opening spring. The _recuperative union 1s also visible, and a of power of our very large Increase of membership may be looked for during the year 1896, “New England will more than fold own, while the southern and western states are expected to rouse themselves from the industrial letharey into which they fell two years ago. Galveston, Tex., §s to have a large cor » for which the pl now. San Francisco A post office building that will assist that hile 1 custom house is ¢ ted in Baltimore. “The Tobin law will empire state and ine hia will be of Its of the micipal law in at good fn that Philadel locality. The superstructure of the Buf- falo post office may be forthcoming by midsummer, and St. Paul expects to be in it by and by, as it is thought the large government building for that city, which has been under discussion for some time, cannot be much longer delayed. “There are u.any other public buildings in prospect which will give building gen- erally an impetus it sorely needs, which when added to smaller jobs, which archi- tects say they have ~n abundance of cr- ders for, will put an end to the depres- sion and uncertaiaty in business circtes. “Thus, it wiJl eppear, the future looks bright, and by December, 1896, we hope to have our unton. in pcint of membership, discipline and finance, in a fair way to outdo anytaing in its previous history. “Prices will be better to contractors, and Wage-cutting will not have the incentive to them which has been proverbial of the trade fcr two years past. This of itself will be a great reform and will be equally beneficial io the journeymen as well as the employers. It is questionable whether prices for cutting can be very much ad- vanced during the coming year, except in the low-paid distri¢ts, but in these some advance may be looked for.” ———— SENATE REORGANIZATION A Lively Debate After the Republicans Had Been Put in Control. Democratic Charges Against the Popu- Lsts—Messrs. Allen and Butler Ex- plain Their Positions. After the Senate had been placed under the control of the republicans yesterday afterncon by a vote of 30 to 28, a lively de- bate was precipjtated. Senator Harris wished to show that the republicans and pcpulists had combined to bring about the reorganization of the Senate, the latter pleying their part in the proceedings by remaining gilent, but this was indignantly denied by both republicans and populists. Then the democrats reminded the republi- cans that they would be responsible for fu- ture legislation, but this was denied, as the republicans said they had no majority, there being 42 republicans, 39 democrats and 6 populists in the Senate. Mr. Allen exolained the attitude of the third party men. He said it was distasteful to populists to te referred to as “republican pepulists,” or ‘democratic populists.” he wanted the ccuntry to understand that the pepulists formed a distinct and independent political organization. He said there had been an effort to organize the Senate on silver lines, but with two or three excep- tions, the republicans and democrats had refused to respond to the invitation sent out to them. Mr. Harris wanted to know whether the populists, with a full knowledge that they held the balance of power, had not deliber- ately determined by their silence to allow the republicans to control the Senate. The Popnlist Position. Mr. Allen replied that the populists real- ized that they held the balance of power. “We have got it,” he said, turning to Mr. Harris, “and we propose to utilize it.” One of two courses was, he said, open to them; either to vote against the resolu- tion and allow the democrats to retain con- trol, or by negative action, and ailow the republicans to assume control. Evil must result either way. In all fairness he de- sired to say the democrats had shown themselves absolutely incapable of legisla- tion. When the present administration as- sumed power he had expected to support the reform movements of Mr. Cleveland. The democratic party claimed to be the party of tariff reform. He believed in lightening the burdens of the people. But the tariff bill came in loaded to the guards with protection. He had concluded that the democratic party, as represented by Mr. Cleveland and his friends, had neither the capacity nor the disposition to relieve the people. (Republican laughter.) The jame was true of the republican party. (@emocratic laughter.) The policy of the republicans inaugurated in the other branch of Congress, to be followed here, he predicted, would work the ruin of the party within six months. Mr. Mitchell of Oregon denied that the republicans could be held responsible. They had not been in the majority and were not row in the majority. Whether they would be before the session closed remained to be seen. Mr. Mitchell said, in justice to the popu- lists, that they had absolutely refused to even suggest committee assignments. They were, with one or two exceptions, per- mitted to retain what they had had in the Fifty-third Congress. “Was not the position of non-action and silence taken by the populists,” inquired Mr. Harris, ‘quite as satisfactory as if they had pledged their votes to the resolu- tion?” “We are always satisfied with what the Senate does,” replied Mr. Mitchell, smiling- ly. “The Senator from Tennessee under- stands that the rules give tue plurality ccutrol of the committees?” said Senator Hoar. “I am aware of the rule,” replied Mr. Harris, gruffiy. “The Senator is aware of everything,” said Mr. Hoar. “No, not everything,’” retorted Mr. Har- ris, testily. Mr. Butler's First Speech. Mr. Butler made his first speech in the Senate while the debate was in progress by adding to Mr. Allen’s explanation his own views regarding the attitude of the populists. After explaining the condition in which he found the Senate in regard to parties, he said it became plain that the Populists must either act with the republi- cans or with the democrats, or remain quiet and allow the “two old parties to fight it out among themselves. Explaining, in reply to a question, the combination by which he had been elected to the Senate, Mr. Butler said that his suc- cess was dve to the fact that the democratic party in North Carolina had become so cor- rupt that it was repudiated by good men in all parties. Mr. Gorman said that the republicans had sought the power which the control of the committees would give them, and he said that he was amazed that Mr. Allison should thus early seek to avoid the responsibility which his party had assumed. They had assumed the responsibility and must meet it like men. Messrs. Allison, Hale, Teller, Chandler and Cockrell took part in the debate until the Senate adjourned, at 4:50. o~__ All About Great Britain.

A shocking accident was narrowly avert- ed yesterday morning ut 7:45 at the Read- ing railroad crossing, 9th street and Mont- gomery avenue, Philadelphia, when a trolley car, by reason of the wet and slippery tracks, passed from the control of its motor- man, and, crashing through the safety gates, was hit by the inbound express engine. But for the presence of mind and energy of the engineer, Charles Dampman, who, within a space of ten yards, brought his moving train to a standstill, serious loss of life and limb would have resulted. As it was, the end of the car was smashed, but no one was hurt. The motorman, who stuck to his post, after- rd succumbed to a nervous shock and was taken to a hospital. — Another Tower Being Considered. Naval authorities are considering the ad- visability of placing another conning tower on board the flagship New York for the use of the admiral in case of action, It is argued that with separate towers for the admiral and the ptain of the vessel. there would be less Hability of confusion in the handling of the fleet. YEAR OF DIPLOMACY (Continued from Fifth Page.) 1,104, and 1883-87, 1,839 cases. Traffic be- tween the seas has been steadily growing. The German emperor's yacht Hohenzollern was the first vessel to pass through on June 20. Vessels from all nations were anchored in the harbor of Kiel and the occasion was ove of great enthusiasm. The next day the emperor laid the keystone of the canal at Kiel, christening the waterway the Kaiser Wilhelm canal in memory of his grand- father, who began the work. The squadrons in the harbor fired a salute of thirty-four guns. Over eighty warships of different ni tions took part in the celebration. In the afterncon the emperor on his yacht steamed through the lines of warships, each saluting him as he passed. He then visited the Royal Sovereign, the British flagship, and was en- tertained on board the American flagship New York. Massacre of Missionaries. The war with Japan intensified the Chi- nese antipathy to foreigners and the Christian missionaries were the only victims accessible. These, carried by enthusiasm into remote interlor points, were surrounded by a hostile population governed by indif- ferent rulers, were beyond the protection of the foreign legations. A preliminary series of assaults culminated in the Chengtu riots on May 28. The property of five missions, three British, one American and one French, was destroyed. The missionaries were driven from their quarters and attacked by a mob. From plunder and havoc the rioters proceeded to bloodshed. On August 1 the Massacre at Hwasang occurred. This is a mountain village, in the province of Fo Kien, a few miles from the city of Ku Cheng. ‘There were two small cottages occupied by representatives of the English Church Missionary Society. The Rev. Robert W. Stewart, in charge of the Ku Cheng mis- sicn, his wife and son, and seven ladies, were butchered. A baby was so badly wounded that it died later, making eleven victims. Miss Hartford of Dover, N. H., the only American at the mission, had a narrow escape from death. Severai others saved themselves, but were dangerously wounded. The,most savage barbarity was shown by the murderers, who,after slaugh- tering their victims, set fire to the houses. On August 7 a Chinese mob attacked the American mission chapel at Fat Shan, near Canton. A Chinese gunboat quelled the riot. The massacre is generally attributed to members of a secret society, known as the Vegetarians. They are said to be Buddhists, and abstain from animal food. Doubtless their ignorant hatred of the mis- sionaries was stimulated by the widely cir- culated stories that the missionaries killed children and tolled them alive. It is possi- ble that the Ku Cheng vegetarians were merely robbers and bandits, and assumed the name of the society, for the society in Pekin and North China {s composed of peaceable and well-behaved Chinese. The vegetarians of the Fo Kien province have arisen in the past year. They are lawless and are said to have attacked Christian and non-Christian alike. The news of the butchery aroused indignation throughout the world. The governments concerned promptly made complaint. Arrests, trial and execution of the Ku Cheng murderers began in August. By September 6 the ar- rests numbered 120. and convictions, twen- ty-three. Sentember 17 seven of the pris- oners were beheaded, and the rest suffered j death later. Meanwhile the governments concerned in the destruction at Chengtu demanded reparation. _ France's demands were agreed to, and the viceroy was de- posed and heavily fined. Great Britain ob- tained its demand by threatening a move- ment of the warships. The American gov- ernment instituted an independent commis- sion to determine the losses and the in- demnity necessary. The Atlanta Exposition. The second greatest exposition this coun- try has ever seen was opened at Allanta, Ga., on September 18. The m®chinery was started by President Cleveland, who press- ed a button in his sea-shore cottage on Buzzard’s bay. It was to be a cotton states exposition, a demonstration of the great growth of southern industries since the war. A site of over 180 acres was se- lected in Piedmont Park, two miles from the center of the city. “The locality is a beautiful one. An artificial lake is spanned by six bridges, and gives water frontage to nearly all the great buildings. More than two million dollars was spent on the buildings and grounds, about $300,000 of which was for landscape gardening. Charles A. Coliier was chosen presilent and di- rector general of the exposition, which it was decided to terminate December 31. Perhaps the most remarkable feature of the opening exercises was the appearance cn the platform of a negro—Booker T. Washington, president of the Tuskegee Inq stitute for colored youth. His short ad- dress was the most effective of all that were delivered and gave him a national reputation, as the negro educational leader of the south. The buildings numbered about thirty. The general style was the modern Romanesque—Georgia yellow pine was mostly used. Villages of different na- tions, somewhat similar to those on the midway, at Chicago, were also to be found. Five northern states and some of the Cen- tral and South American republics had well- appointed buildings. Days were set apart for the different states and large cities of the Union, and frequent pilgrimages were made by governors and their staffs, at- tended often by state militia. The attend- ance was large, and a surplus was doubt- less realized. Nothing but praise and won- der was expressed at the completeness of the exposition, and at the wonderful prog- ress of the cotton-growing states. It was felt to be a great object lesson. The expo- sition was of even greater value as cement- ing more closely the ties binding the north to the south, and must prove of incalcu- lable benefit in furthering national unity. Income Tax Decision. The decision of the United States Su- preme Court on the inceme tax feature of the Wilson tariff act, rendered May 30, will rank as one of the notable decisions of that body. There was widespread interest in the decision, for while comparatively few of the population were interested directly in the decision, all had formed a conclusion regarding its justice, and each had arraigned himself on one side or the other. The law laid a tax on those having an income of $4,000 or more. The first decision was ren- dered April 8, and was quite unsatisfactory, for it left many points undecided, owing to a tie in the court, Justica Jackson being Ill and unable to participate in the delibera- tions of the court. On the const:tutionality of taxation of incomes from state, county and municipal bonds the court was unani- mously agreed in opposition to it. The court stvod 6 to 2 against the consti- tutionality of taxing rents, and the court was evenly divided on the constitutionality of the rest’of the law. Owing to the pre- vailing dissatisfaction a rehearing was granted, and the latter portion of the law was reargued, with the result that the court decided, 5 to 4, Justice Jackson hav- ing resumed his position on the bench, against the law. Chief Justice Fuller, with Justices Field, Gray, Brewer and Shiras, voted against the law, and Justices Harlan, Brown, Jackson and White in its favor. Three republicans and two democrats voted against and two republicans and two dem- ocrats in its favor. Cabinet Changes. Owing to the death of Secretary of State Gresham, May 28, a vacancy was created in the cabiret, which was filled by the ap- pointment of Richard Olney, who held the position of Attorney General. Judson Harmon, a Cincinnat! lawyer of stand- ing, was appointed to succeed Mr. Olney. Another cabinet change was caused by the resignation of Wilson S. Bissell, Postmaster General, who was succeeded by ex-Con- gressman Wm. L. Wilson of West Virginia, author of the Wilson tariff act. Another important appointment, though not in the cabinet, was that of Rufus W. Peckham of New York to the vacancy on the Supreme bench caused by the death of Justice Jack- son. The General Election: The democratic reverses, which began In 1893 and continued in 1894,were even great- er in the elections in 1895. ‘Thirteen states held elections, and in all but one—Missis- sippi—the republicans were victorious. The pluralities were as follows: Massachusetts . New York.. New Jersey... Pennsylvania . Maryland .. Ohio Kentucky Towa . Nebraska Utah Kansas . Rhode Island Mississippi By electing a majority of the legi - 65,000 . 91,000 +++ 26,000 seeee171,000 tures in Ohio, Maryland and Kentucky the re- i COLD.

Cold shoulder and even contempt should be shown any druggist or grocer who trles to sell you something which he says is ‘just as good.” He is deceiving you. publicans will gain United States Senators in place of Senators Brice, Gibson and Blackburn. Congres: The closing session of the Fifty-third Congress was devoid of feature. Attempts were made to reform the currency, but they failed. Efforts to authorize the issue of gold bonds at rates of interest lower than at which coin bonds could be floated came to no avail. When the Fifty-fourth Congress met Thomas B. Reed was elected Speaker by the republicans. Owing to the urgent request of the President considera- tion was begun of the state of the national treasury. The House passed a tariff act, which it was estimated would give $40,000,- 000 more revenue, and quickly followed it with an act authorizing the issue of bonds, but refused to make them coin bonds. Both measures must now receive the considera- tion of the Senate. Sporting ‘The past year was a notable one in the field of sport—amateur sport. There was the trip of the Cornell University eight to England and its attempt to win the Grand Challenge cup, which is a trophy for eights open to the world; then followed the con- tests between the British yacht Valkyrie and the American yacht Defender. There were the field and track events in which picked men frum the London Athletic Club met the best from the New York Athletic Club. It was, in fact, an international af- fair, for both clubs secured the best talent and club membership was easily bestowed. ent Then the crack athletes from Cambridge University contested with the best from Yale. Mr. J. Arthur Brand’s little half- rater Spruce IV was brought over to hum- bie the pride of the American Ethelwynn, but failed to do it. Then a young Brooklyn lad named Pillsbury crossed the ocean and met at the chess table the masters of Eng- land, Russia, France and Germany and arose champion of the world. Barring the unfortunate experience of the Cornell crew it was a year for Yankee success. Uncle Sam won all along the line. True, the De- fender's victory over the Valkyrie was not such a one as Americans wished. The first Trace was won by the American on her mer- its. Just before the second the yachts col- Nded and the American‘suffered such dam- age that she was beaten. Lord Dunraven refused to sail it over and the race was given to the Defender. ‘The Valkyrie withdrew from the third after crossing the line, and Defender sa‘led pver the course alone. Lord Dunraven claimed tat the course was too | crowéed and refused to sail unless the race committee would take steps to keep it clear. Considerable bitterness was afterward caused by his claiming that a large amount of ballast was removed from the Defender before it was remcasured, and he crossed the ocean to lay{his charges before the com- mittee. Disasters, The wreck of the Elbe in the North sea January 30, in which 335 lives were lost; and the sinking of the Spanish man-of-war Reina Regente during the storm of March 10-11 have melancholy pre-eminence among the disasters of the year. Among the others were a series of explosions of nitro-glycerine and giant powder stored in warehouses at Butte, Mont., whereby sixty lives were lost; the wreck of the Ohio river steamboat State of Missouri, with a loss of thirty-seven lives: train wreck on the Interoceanic railway near Mexico, sixty-five kilied; mine explo. sion near Evanston, Wyo., sixty killed Wreck of the Pacific mai! steamship Colima off the coast of Mexico, 164 lost; tornado in Iowa, over 100 killed; bursting of the reser- voir at Bousey, France, 120 lives lost; wreck of the Spanish steamer Dom Pedro off the Spanish coast, eighty-seven lives lost; flood in western Hungary, seventy drowned boiler explosion in the Gumry Hotel at Den- ver, Col., twenty-five deaths; wreck of Ital- ian emigrant steamer Maria P., 148 lives lost; wreck of British steamer Catterhun, sixty lives lo: anish cruiser Barcarz- tegul lost, thirty-five drowned.
