READY FOR A COMPROMISE, Eventa Point to An Early Settle- ment of the Chicago Strike. BOTH SIDES ARE WEAKENING, Werkes Consents toa Conference With Committees From His Former Employes—The Dyna- mite Bombs, The Street Car Strike. CinicaGo, Oct. 12 ial Telegram to e Ber|—It looks to-night as though the street car strike was nearing @ settlement. The police have at last shown the strikers their ability t clear the streets and to enabl the company to run its cars, and both sides to-day are in a m aliatory mood. The Btrikers realize that that the police will pro. tect the company, and Yerkes secs that it will be a long time before he can dispense with police protection; o both are inelined to make concessions. Mr. Yerkes to-day is- sued the following To the Public of Chicago: A etanding scems to prevail in some re con misunder quarters eoncerning the position of the North Chicago strect raiiroad company toward the former employes of that company. The refusal of the writer to enter into any further com promise with Schilling, Coyne, Detweiller or any other socialists, anarchists or agita tors mot employes of any street rail road has been misunderstood even by those who wish to do justice to the company It is true, wo must decline to allow those ele ments of socicty to further interfere in the affairs of the North side road; but it is also true that we are willing now, as in the past, to discuss any matters of mutual interest it the present and former employes of that towpany; but we can not allow the manage ment of the company to be dictated to or in timidated by the employes of any other cor poration. The affairs of the West Chicago street railroad company are managed by Mr. John 3. Farsons and his board of dircctors. If the employes of that company have no gricvance against it they should_return to work. company will meet at u The management of the North sido time its former employcs and make an earnest cndeavor to adjust their differency step to this end should be taken while the employes of the West division company maintain the position that, without any grievance or complaint to make o the mana. gers of that company, they will refuse to allow the great public of the West side their accustomed and necessary transportation facilities until the North side company shall yield to_all demands made upon it. The North Chicago Street Hailway company is not in need of the scrvices of its former em- ployes, as it is prepared to-day to oporate ns many cars as can be protected from mob violence by the city authoritics, and in offer- ing to treat with its former employes it has wlways been actuated solely by a desire to ac- comodate the public of Chicago. It will, of course, be understood that in no event could the company consider any proposition evol- ing the discharge of the brave men who have Btood up agninst the insults and viole the mob aud performed their duty of run- ning the cars of this compan, Cuanres T. YEKKES. A committee of West side citizens, ap- pointed by a meeting held last night, called ou Mayor Itoche and urged him to endeavor effcct a septlement. The mayor said to hem : “The only way to stop it is to find some middle ground on which both sides can agree. The men ve issued an ultimatum that if they go back the new men who have been driving cars must be discharged. Yerkes ays he will not discharge a man of them, Now this difference must be reconciled. If ou, gentlemen, can get the strikers to yield his point, the dificulty is in & fair way to compromised. Otherwise there is no chance that I can see.” The committee went to see the executive ard of the West side Conductors’ and Driy- rs’ association and returned to the mayor's office shortly before 1 o'clock. They reported that after laboring with the executive boards f both the North and West sides the men ad agreed to allow Mr. Yerkes, in case of settlement, to retain in his empioy all the mew men employed since the strike began. The committee further announced that the executive boards would be at the mayor's of- fce at 8 o'clock, when Yerkes was invited to be present. 'Ilhi' West side and North side associations of conductors appointed new committoes this afternoon leaving off Schilling, Deweiler and Coyne, to try and make a settlement of the @ifticulty between the North Chicago Street railway company and the conductors and drivers. The committees were consolidated 8t a meeting held at 2 o'clock in Leamon's %an. and George S. Treasdaie, one of the orth side conductors, was chosen to be chairman and to act as spokesman for the two associations. The committee were Luuu'tl by the citizens’ committee which held conferen with the mayor this morning. Both bodies went to the tayor's oftice and at 3 o'clock were ushered into the presence of his honor and Mr. Yerkes. The conference, which continued for along time, resulted in an offer by President Yerkes 10 submit a new proposal to the North side men provided the West side men would all return to work to-morrow, and allow traffic thero to be resumed without' delay. Fur- Shermore, he would guarantee to the West sidors that there should be no reductions made in Wages, no matter what might be the result of the North side strike. The confer- ence committee considered the matter for some time and fihally concluded that the matter was too serious for them to deciae, and advised Mr. Yerkes that they would would assemble the strikers as quickly as ssible and allow them to decide. The ecting of the men was called to order at about 8 o'clock this evening and the doors closed, excluding all reporters. At midnight the strikers resolved to re sume work on the West side lines in the morning on the basis of President Yerkes' proposition. They will, however, ask certain conditions, and should these be rejected, it is very probable that the men will again be called out. They propose to fix ascale of ‘wages for the North side wen and not to re- cede from it ‘The cars started direct from Western ave- nue, the scene of most of the rioting, early this morning and have becn running all day witbout any opposition to speak of. They have been quite liverally patronized by men and women. On the North side the cars are 8180 running with decreased police protec tion and are meeting with no trouble. Captain Schaack, of the North side police, says the bombs placed o the street car track csterday by Louis Kasselberg contain ynamite of more powerful quality than any heretofore discovered by the police. They #ro about the size and shape of a half egg. On top there is a percussion cap and at the bottom there were wires to fasten thom firmly to the top of the rail, They were placed in bunches of threo and Schaack says they contain enough dynamite to shatter a car to splinters. Kassolberg had about a_dozen of them in his pocket. Two or three placed in a section of @8 pipe would make & bomb precisely like those manufactured by Louis Lingg, the an- archist, Schaack has been pumping Kussel berg, but so far without success.

Pinchback of Loui New York Worl Ex-Senator Percy Bysshe Shelley Pinchback, of Loui: iana, is staying in New York, prolong- ing his summer vacation until Jack Frost has dono battle with Yellow Jack. He is o man of strikingly handsome ap- pearance, and with his oval tace, gray mustacho and pointed beard of gray and wavy hair literally sprinkled with silver, he recalls the lamented Roscoe Conkling. The touch of negro blood in his veins shows itself ouly in light tawny skin of the octoroon and not in any” irregularity of lineament. He began life as a steward on one of the first palace steamboats which ran from New Orleans to The Bends,” 500 miles up the Mississippi, and after- wards occupied the same position on the first and famous Rovert E. I In reconstruction days he became a power in Louisiana politics and was the first of *‘the new citizens” whom the fi teenth amendment made enter the United States senate. When Cleveland entered the white house Pinckback was surveyor of the portof New Orleans and he was one of the first republicans to resign office, declaring his belief in the doctrine that to the victor belong the spoils. Toa recently written re quest that he should run for cougress in Louisiana he answered: My pol- itical race is run. My public career is ended.” After his retirement from rohticn he went to England, and in the elting ring threw the feats of Plunger Walton in the shade. He has been a frequent visitor and a heavy better this summer at all the race tracks surround- ing New York. Hehasamassed a large fortune, which permits him such enjoy- ts.

He Inaugurates His Canvass Under Unfavorable Conditions. A SMALL CROWD IN ATTENDANCE. The Greater Portion of His Speech Devoted to An Argument in Favor of Tariff Reduction. Hill on the Tariff. Mrrcaert, Ind., Oct. 12.—Governor David B. Hill, of New Vork, inaugurated his can- vass of Indiana hero to-day. Twenty thou- sand people were expected, but the unpropi tious weather kept the number down to 5,000, The governor's party left Cincinnatiat 9 this morning, and at all the Indiana points on the road people assembled to see him. At Seymour he was met by Governor Gray. Arriving ot Mitchell, he was taken at once to the speaker’s platform. When hearose to speak he was loudly and repeatedly cheered. Governor Hill began his speech by referring to the issues discussed in this campaign, For twenty years questions growing out of sectional animostties were discussed, but to-day all over the land the people are engaged in a discussion of sconomic and industrial ques tions. This, he said, was the outgrowth of the wise and statesman-like administration of Grover Cleveland, He then went on to say The democratic party proposes a revision of the tariff, It does not propose the de. struction of the tariff, but it proposcs suuply a modification of 1t, ' Tariff revision is no tariff destruction. We beliove that the time lias come when the excessive revenues of the government should be diminish We believe that the best and truest interests of our country will be hest subserved by the destruction of the present high rate of taxa- tion. We have suffered long enough under a war taxation, and we think that the time has come, the time of peace, when war taxation should cease, Need Largue before an intelligent audience like this that it i< best for this country that there should not be on overflowivg treasury ¢ You know what a surplus, an immense surplus, in the federal treasury means, It means an opportunity for jobs of every character. It means useless und unnecessary expenditures of public moneys. And it (3" best for our country that there should not be an overfiow- ing treasury. “The dewmocratic party, my friends, has given the country the issue in this campaign. It is an issue which has attracted world-wide attention. We are in favor of & revision of the tarifl principally upon two points, Kirst, we think thut raw material, wherever it is possible to do o, 'should be admitted free of duty. We believe in the secoud place that taxcs upon the necessaries of life should be made as light as possible. Upon these two points we may confidently appeal to the people in this campaign. I don’t propose to argue to vou at any length in favor of the propriety of what is known as the Mills bill. You, by this time in the cam- paign are familiar with details of that measure. I am not here to say thut it is per- fect in all its details, but in the main it is a measure reasonably free from objection. It i4a measure intended to_subserve the bost interests of the country. Itisameasure inthe interest of the taxpayers, consumers, faruers, mechanics and laboring men of the country" My friends, when this question was first pre- sented to congress last December—and you will recollect it was presented to congress in a message by the president of the United States, Grover Cleveland—you will recollect what he told the country in_reference to the necessity of some reliof of the people. Have you forgotten how that message was re- ceived by our opponents in and: out of congress! Inthe firat place, they said that there was no surplus. In the second place they said that if there was a surplus it did not matter. ~They said: ‘It 'is better that we should have a surplus -than a de- ficiency.' They said: ‘It is unwise to disturh the business interests of the country by tink- ering with the tariff,’' and they neglected no opportunityto discourage the prosentation of this question to the people of the United States. Nevertheless, that. message,. which startled the country somewhat beesuse of-its boldness, its honcsty, und its candor, was acted upon by our democraticTepresentatives in the lower house of congress. They framed the bill known as the Mills bilk designed to relieve the country from unnecessury ygxa- tion. We believe that that is the democratic creed, that unnecessary taxation ought no longer to exist.” He then traced the progress of the Mills bill through the house until it reached the seuate, where, he said, therepublicans at the eleventh hour, after having ‘declared it un- safe to tinker with the tariff, now prapose a substitute for the Mills bill. They now propose to tinker with the tariff themselves; now. propose.to disturb what they are the business intorests of this country by taking up tiis question them- selves. [Laughter and applause:l But it is too late. The cry for tariff reform which has been spreading over this country has.ve- ceived such an impetus that it will again place Mr. Cleveland in the presidential chafr. [Prolonged cheers.] The same arguments, hie said, which were urged by the republicans in years gone oy against a reduction of tariff taxation are urged now, and the same argu- meuts which are urged. now " could be urged in five, ten or fifteen years from e g He characterized them as bein then and unsound now. He sald he was happy to inform Indisna that the democratic votes of “the Impire state would be given to Cleveland and Thurman in~ November, and there would be no mistake this time in the size of the majority. The people there were aroused 10 the question of the hour. The national congress had legislated in tho inierost of classes and in the interest of monopolieslong enough. 1t is proposed to do something. for the interest of the people. He paid his com- pliments to Mr. Blaine in the following lan- guage “Tnotice that the distinguished statesman from Maine, who is now in this state, is tell- ing_ the people that all your prosperity is due to high protective tarifl. You would have no crops except for the tariff, I suppose. [Laughter.] Your population would not have increased but for the tariff. Your lands would not have been cleared, your farms would not have been cultivated except for the tarifl. My friends, this is simply nnthing more nor less than clap-trap, and. it will not deceive the intelligent people'of this state.” [Several voices, “Never." | He closed his speech with an eloquent tribute to the late Thomas A. Hendricks. Senator Raines was then introduced and made a speech on the tariff question. He was followed by Governor (iray, who re- ceived an ovation.

The first stop was at Seymour, where 1,000 people greeted the party in a drizzling rain, Governor Hill hort address. clock the party re-embarked for In- dianapolis. Columbus was reached at 6:30, Between 2,000 anp 3,000 people were assem- bled at the depot and called loudly for Gov- ernor Hill, who appeared and made a short address. Governor Gray also said a few word: IXDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 13,—Governor Hill and his party arrived in Indianapolis at 8:15 p. m. today. A drizzling rain was falling, A crowd of 2,000 or miore, including the Flam- beau club and representatives from soveral local clubs, met the party at the union depot. The Hon. Charles Jewett, chairman of the state democratic committee, and others were resent to welcome the guest and his riends. The party took carriages awaiting and wore escorted direct to Tomlinson ball, where a mass meeting was in progress. The houso was well filled with an audience of 4,000.

That is ono question. I am spenking now of the articles manufactured uyd brought into this country upon which the duties are reduced. There is not a single mautifactured article upon which the duty has boeen reduced where there is not left by this much abused Mills bill sufticient revenue to represent the whole cost of labor involved in_its production any: where. [Applause.| Therefore the first position that I take is that the democratio party fuvors the protection of labor. But we do not believe that when suficient duty is still left to represent the labor involved in the production that it is n ary to still further burden the people simply to~ give an excessive profit to monopolists and manufac turers," The speaker then toook up the wool sched- ule in detail, Regarding the probable defeat of the Mills bill in’ the senate, Governor Hill concluded : My friends, the scnate of the United States does not' to-day represent a majority of the people of the country.

WasmiINGTON, Oct, 12 —The senate resumed consideration of the tariff bill and Mr. Chace continued the apeech which he had begun yesterday, and which was chiefly di 1to a review of the merits and demerits of the two parties in regard to the postal servico. At the close of Mr. Chace's remarks, Mr. Allison, with an assumption of gravity, moved that the tariff bill be now taken up, and feigned surprise at being informed that that bill was before the senate Mr. Call then reviewed Mr. Platt's argu ment of yesterda as to the sectional con spiracy against labor. Ar attempt to con nect financial and econowric questions with the difticulties that existed betwoen the peo ple of tho United States was, be said, cqually unworthy of the senator and of a reasoning wind outside the senate. It could not ad dress itself to the juagment and intellizent thought of any class of people. He asked, could taxes be reduced. The democratic party had formulated and placed before the country a proposition to the effect that the method of reduction should be to reduce taxes on articles of general consumption Tho republican party had antagonized that proposition and insisted that the duty on a large proportion of articles nccessary for human hfe should not be reduced, but shonld shall be followed by the reapportionment of senate and assemply districts. In defiance of those plain provisions of the constitution the republicans, ~ that they may retain control of the senate and the assembly, bave refused to carry out the provisions of their constitution and have refused to order an enumeration and refused to reapportion the senate and as sembly districts of that states For that reason, and that reason alone, the great em- pire state of the union is misrepresented by be increased, and that taxation was a benefit and not an’ injury to the people of the country. ‘That was the groat issuc to be con- sidered by the people. Mr. Hawloy said that he had brought his notes and docuwents with the intention of making a speech, but he confessed that he had not the courage. His heart failed him, partly because his heart was in another lace. He was glad that the senate bill had ecn reported. He thought it a very good two republican senators in the United States seuate.

But whatever of merit there may be in their hill, the people and taxpayers of this country are indebted to the democratic party, forced the fight upon 'this question. plause.] But for the position assumed by the president and assumed by the party there would have been nothing_accomplished upon this matter. What is the position of the democratic party upon the tariff question? I say that the democralic party isnot a free trade party, and I will reiterate it wherever because they have Igo. [Applause.] Ideny that there is any: thing in the democratic platform that can be ~ construed . in. favor of free trade. ~But, my. friends, it does not follow from that that the democratic party docs not favor tarifl revision. It is altogether a different thing. Wae are opposed to exces- sive taxation, and opposed to un unnecessar- ily high tariff. We believe that the time is come when, without injury to our intevest in this country, the tazeés can be reduced. It is the position that is unassailable in this campaign, ‘and all the clamor of republican politicians, simply to subscrve party purposes, canndy change the honest, fair, manly position’ of the democratic party.” [Prolonged applause. ] At the conclusiod’f: Goverror Hill's ad. dress Senator George/Raines spoke, and the meeting then adjourned at a late hour.

NEW YORK, Oct. 12.—[Special Telegram to Tus Bie.]-Mayor Hewitt has widened the local political chasm. Last evening he de- clined absolutely to withdraw as a candidate for raayor, uotwithstanding tho fact that Don Dickinson was here from Washington to sec what he could do tow: rd harmonizing the city factions. Yesterduy morning the Staats Zeitung, which is supporting Cleve- land, appealed to be ™ witt and nt to withdraw and let a new man be nominated for the sake of the national ticket. Grant, Tammany's ominee, .uid he would with- draw if Hewitt woutd do the same. But the mayor, who wants to run and even up scores with Cleveland by having his followers knife him, declares he will stay in_the field. “I have been regularly nominated by the citizens and by the county democracy, and have accepted the nomination. I could not now, and I would not withdraw,” said the mayor. Another failure to bring about local har- mouy must be recorded. The Tammanyites have done all they can. They now propose to beat Hewitt at the polls and will cut Cleveland and Hill to sccomplish their pur. Colouel New of Indiana has returned to his desk at the republivas national headquar- ters. When he left some weeks ago for In- dianapolis to attend to bis private business, the democratic papers, \vith a great parade, said he had been called there to help save the state for Harrison, and that he would not return. They further alleged that the republicans had practically given up Indiana and called Colonel New home as a last re- sort. A reporter asked him if the above haa any foundati ie replied: ‘“None whatever. They are merely the usual stock of campaign ligs, 1 the republicans can ‘prevent fraud, Indiana will give them a majqrity of 10,000’ at least. Wearedoing all we can tb have an honest elec: tion. A committee of one hundred has been organized in Indianaplia to prevent fraud in Mariou county. It ip composed of homest democrats and repubficans. All good citi- zens have joined the movement. We have made & canvass of the state and are satisfied. We know the domocrats have also made a canvass, and are not satisfied.” Al il A. O. U. W. Reunion. The members of the A. O. U. W. of Omaha and their visiting guests met at the socioty hall in the Barker block after dinner. At?2 o'clock they formed in line to march to Good- rich ball. The Omaha Guards band headed the column, headed by the Workmen of this city. Then came the A. O U. W. milita band of Lincoln followed by the visiting Work- men, chiefly a large delogation from the cap- ital city, At Goodrich hall the afternoon was spent in speech-muk ing and fraternal good fellowship, iuterspersed with a pro- gramme of concert music by the Guards baud. The exercises wore changed from Han- scom park to Goodrich ball' on account ‘ofthe weather.: . ) bill—perhaps the best first draft of a tariff bill ever submitted to congress. It was built on a definite. principle, and maintains of the old doctriue of protection that which had been the doctrine of the country, and that was the doctrine of all civilized nations with one exception. The bill had been presented and its purposes set forth. Those senutors.who desired to speak on it could do so, but the people were not looking to the senate, nor caring what it said or did in the matter. Nobody believed that the bill could be discussed, item by item, and disposed of at this session.” It had to go over till De- cember. In his humble judgment, the best thing that the senators could do was to go home, and he for one was going. Mr. Reagan next addressed the senate. He favored the house bill as against the senate bill, though he would not say that he would vote for eve item in it or against every item in the other. In the course of his speech a statement by Mr. Reagau s to the amount annually transferred to the pockets of the manufac- turers through the operation of the tariff, and which was stated previously at §1,800,000,000, attracted the attention of Mr. Aldrich, who desired an explanation of the statement. But Mr. Aldrich’s inquiry and Mr. Reagan's ex- planations seemed 10 involve the matter more and more, and after spending nearly an hour over the’ subject the effort to disen- tangle it was abandoned. After a brief executive session the senate adjourned till Mon House. Wasninaton, Oct. 1 ‘The conference re- port on the bill for the pa;ment of Fourth of July claims was presented and adopted. A joint resolution was passed for printing the reports of the commissioners of labor and the aunual report of the director of the mint. Mr. ¢ of Minnesota called up the report of the special committee investigating the charges of misconduct on the part of Stahl- necker of New York in connection with the new library building. The report, which completely - exonerates Stahinecker, was adopted without discussion. It was agreed that when the house ad- journed to-day it be to meet on Monday next. The house then went into committee of the whole on the private calendar, the pending business being the senate bill for: the incor- poration of the Maritime Canal company of Nicaragua. Mr. Fuller, of Iowa, while subscribing heartily to the idea that the Atlantic and Puacifio” oceuns should be connected by a canal, pointed out his objections to the pend- ing measure, which he contended was loosely drawn. If it were so amended as to protect the publie, he would withdraw his opposition to its passage. Ho offered an amendment providing that the directors, with the ap proval of & majority of the stockholders, at a special meeting, may adovt regulations and by-laws, but no change in the by-laws shall be mado except by a majority vote of the stockholders. Aftor considerable debate a vote was taken on the ameudment, which resulted in yeas 23, nays 8, Messrs, Turner, of Kansas, and Lawler raised a point of no quorum, The committee thereupon aro: 3 The conference report on the hill to retire General Alfred Pleasanton with the rank of major was called up and agreed to. The house then adjourned till Monday. S A ENGE o Doctors give Jarvis old brandy. AL E B Doctor Parsell, oflice and residence No. 1715 Davenport st. e ——— From the Jaws of Death.

All efforts to arouse them proved unavailing and the door had to be broken down. They were found lying in the first stage of asphyxiation, frothing at the mouth and groaning. They were quickly removed from the mephitic atmosphere and restora- tives applied, which in the course of an hour or 30 brought them back to consciousness. It was a close call for them, and they have re turned to their rurai home at Harcourt with & poor opinion of the conveniences of a great city. ogen.
