= FIFTEENTH YEAR. - OMAHA, WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY 19, 1856, CONCERNING ALL WHO LABOR. Ohicago Lumber Dealers Uncuy-suikcra] Evidently Backed Up. THE UNIONS AND THE KNIGHTS. Chicago Workmen Generally Return- ing to Work on Old Terms—Trad Unionists in Session—Treat- ing With the Knights. Situation in Chicago. CRICAGO, May 15.—|Special Telegram, | — If the police had positive information that armed rioters were expected at any honr they could not be better prepared for instant duty than they are to-day. Along Twenty-second street, the entiro lumber district is under guard. From Blue Island avenue east to the river there is not an entrance or crossing where there s not ten policemen within pis- tol shot range. 'The proprietors continue to sitin theiroffices and smoke, but they do not talk frecly or laugh loudly, The situa- tion grows more severe to them each day. Yesterday they told a reporter that they were going to send for Michigan men to put in their yards; to-day they hesitate to send for the men. One proprietor with big inter- ests, said he feared the result of putting im- ported men in the yards. ‘Ihe present police force might guard them by day, butit ceuld not guard the houses in which they would sleep nor the acres of lumber piles by night. Reaction on the part of the workmen yester- day, and the indifference to-day as to whether they get work at all or mnot, make the yard owners feel that the lumber shovers and handlers are backed by other forces far more numerous and dangerous, ‘I'he extra large guard of police present constantly where there is no immediate sign of danger would indicate that the ofticers have a simi- Jar apprehension, If such fear exists in po- lice eircles, knowledge on which it is based is confined to those who will not talk about it. Riding through the Bohemian territory, north of the lumber district, last week one could see and talk with groups of men who then claimed that they were very needy and must return to work at any price. “These groups of hungry people have disappeared. Some of those who bezan work last week ve quit. ‘The conclusion I that they have cived aid their present needs’ from some source. This adds strength to the that the lumber laborers have friends ide. 'The number of men nctually at swork in the yards to-day is not sufficient to atisfuctory amount of business, A canvass of the yards shows that they aver- from 10 to 30 per cent of their old time The planing mills are all sending out smoke and_doing little wotk, such as the limited work in the yards demand. BOOMING OLEOMA ARE The butterine men, W Armour and Plankington at their head, are making des perate efforts to prevent the passaze of any hill by s taxing that prodict. R lutions hay rushed through the board of trade of Chicago, Milwaukee, Kunsas City and other points protesting against any tax being imposed, and Armour & Co. have se- cured a letter from Dr. Ranch, of the state board of health, which, the' firm claims, shows that there'is nothing harmful or dele terious in the composition of oleomargarine, orbutterine. Mr, Webster, of the firm, ad: mitted this morning that he had secured cor- roborative testimony from Dr. DeWolf and other physicians which would be written up in connection with pavts of the original document and published in_ all the Chieago pupers, when it would be forwarded to whington and laid before the congres- ional committee, Mr. Webster would not furnish a complete copy of the letter but of- fered his extracts with " the other testimony which he claimed wou'd show the public that butterize is as pure as butter. Assailing the Knights. PHILADELPHIA, May 18.—Oflicers of twen- ty national trade unions methere with closed doors this afternoon to take united action, it was stated, to resist encroachments being made upon open unions by the Knights of Labor. Thirty-two assoclations were rep- resented by delegates or letters, and claim fo have a total membership of 307,736 A representative of each organi- zation presented its grievance, At the close of the evening session, which continued until after midnight, the secretary stated that the resolutions had been adopted, de- claring that, in view of the success that has d the efforts of the national and inter- national unions in the past, they shouid strictly preserve their distinet and individual autonomy. atit wis not deemed advisable for any les union to be controlled by or to join Knights of Labor in a body, believing that trades unions are best qualificd to regu- late their own internal tradd affairs, The resolutions further declare that it is the purpose of a certain elemint of the Knights of Labor to destroy trades unions, and that this element makes it a point to en eronch upon the wission and prerogatives of trades unions, ereating antagonism and pro- yoking dissension in the iabor movement, to c and satisfaction of the capitalist, conference, however, concluded ~that some coneerted plan of action was absolutely necessary to prevent the continuance of this destructive policy and to_establish harmon- jous and fraternal relations between all the various branches of organized ° labor and a set of terms was drafted with this object in view, to bo presented a5 a treaty for ' the consideration of the Knights of Labor, which will meet next Tuesday at Cleveland.

The Accused Makes a Statement Which Seems Highly Improbable, St. Lours, May 18.—The Post-Dispatch prints a statement made by H. M. Brooks, alias Maxwell, now on trial for the murder of G, Arthur Preller, which will eonstitute his own defense and which will be urged by his attorneys in trial. In a word he will confess the killing of Preller by accident while acting as his physician, and that be- ing excited and frightened he ‘‘concealed” instead of making known the fact of his death, He declares he has always wanted to tell the facts, and only refrained by adviee of hisattorneys.
