Missouri—During the leg‘slative session of 188% a bill was introduced into the leg- all of his clothes on, but the water was too cold and too deep for him, and he begged the policemen to help him out. Barbara Dean, a colored woman, twenty-eight years of age, who acted as a pigeon, was also arrested. Both were charged with dis- erderly conduct. Andrew Gainor, colored, aged nineteen, and Edward Pickett, aged sixteen, also colored, were indulging in a cycle race yesterday afternoon about 3 o'clock on the Conduit road, when Policemen Heide and Bradley of the county mounted force beat them out at the finish and placed both un- der arresi. They were charged with fast riding. This morning both bicycles were left at the station house, while the riders went down to the Police Court in the Black Maria. There were 390 delegates present, repre- senting 1,250,000 unionists. The parliament- ary committee reported that the legisia- tion in many decisions of the courts dur- ing the year 1897 was not based on the principles of equity and ju and was calculated to seriously injure the cause of labor and give capitalism an unfair and improper advantage. —___ Business Delayed. The beginning of today’s business was delayed for several hours in the District branch of the Police Court this morning on account of there being no regularly commissioned substitute judge in the city. Owing to the very large number of cases to be tried Judge Kimball found himself in need of assistance. Judges Mills and Scott, who usually assist Judge Kimball, were both out of the city, and the latter then sent for Judge Taylor, who responded. A question then arose as to waethcr Judge Taylor, not having been regularly desig nated by the Commissioners to do so, could preside in the court. After consultation with the government attorneys, who ex- pressed the opinion that Jucge Taylor was legally competent, the latter took the bench and presided throughout the day. —_—— some form of pressure upon those disposed to go to work that they can succeed in a strike. The very worst the strikers do or think of doing is to prevent others from going to work, in order that they themselves may work-—may earn a scant living by hard toil. “If laborers were to form socicties which sheuld by force prevent any one from go- ing to work without their permission; were to charge tke highest price for the’ priv. ilege of going to work, which the necessi- tes of ctherr would compel them to pay, and were then to sit down and live in idteness on this blackmail, they would only be doing to others what organized society permits others to do to them. ‘True in the Abstract. “While it is perfectly true, as an abstract propesiticn, that n> one ought to be@ per- mitted to interfere with the legitimate business of another, or by zoing out of his own right to inflict or threaten injury or loss as a means of coercion, yet it is also true that, under existing conditions, it is only by combining together to interfere with the legitimate business of others, and to coerce others by the fear of injury or loss, that workmen are at all uble to resist the tendency to crowd wages down to the point of bare existence.

Leahy started the! fourth with a strike cut, and DeMont. was in the same box, but Wilson let the ball get by him and Gene was safe at first, going to second on euother passed ball. " McGuire pasted a single to left, scoring DeMontreville and going to second himself on the throw-in. Tucker then set the crowd wild with a triple to left center, scoring McGuire. Reilly hit toward third, too hot for Clingman, and Tucker scored. ‘Gettman forced Riley at second, and Wrigley made the third out, short to first. Three runs. BALTIMORE IN THE LEAD.
