The peoplo began assembling as early as 11 o'eloeck and by uoon there was a jam of gayly dressed and enthusiastic men, women and children on the ground, all bent on ing & good time, That they had it is assured, as the management has been lavish in its list of atiractions and loft no stone un- turned to insure the pleasure and comfort of all, The Musical Unfon band was on hand and at irregular intervals throughout the af noon kept the air resonant with its inspiring strains, The roast ox, done to & turn by that princo of caterers, Israel Frank, the city meat inspector, came iu fora big share of the glory. The huze beast had been as carefully and artistically prepared as one would expect for a canvasback duck at Dolmonico's or Chamberlain’s, and the number of people who partook of tne feast was something incredible. Carver Frank was kept hustling until the last vestigo of the banquet had gono the road of all good things. 3 The balloon ascension took place about 2 o'clock, and was witnessed by a delighted and oxeited multitude of people. The big airship made a splendia vovage, going straight up for a_distance of 400 feet, when the daring wronaut cut the parachute loose and descended as straight as a die, alighting probubly 100 yards from the place of asceu- sion.

ESDAY, SEPTEMBER &, 1893, MISTAKE OF Fitf; MILWAUKEE Sensation in Looal Rallway Oiroles Oansed by a Placard. e SHORT LIVED HQHESl OF THE PUBLIC World's Fair Rates Tomporarily Reasonible ~Mr. Nash Will Explain—Unlon Pacitio Oficinls Anxionsly’ Awaiting the Outeome of Exisling Discora. The representatives of tho sevoral Chi- cago trunk lines had a real touch of éxcite- ment for about two hours yesterday after- noon, due to the following placard displayed conspicuously about the Milwaukee ticket office at Fiftecnth and Farnum stroets: TO CHICAGO, $12.7. FOR ONE DAY ONLY. Hardly had the card made 1ts appearance when the city ticket agents began to propare for a general ghost dunce. It wasn’t many minutes before the traveliug public also learned of the rate, and City Ticket Agent Carrier, his_assistant, GeorgeyHaynes, and even Mr. Nash, the goneral agent, had all they could do to pacify the crowd with a verification of the telegram received from the Milwau- keo headquarters at Chicago, to post the rate, was received. Secretary Munn of the local passenger agreement, however, got in his deadly work in testing the market, two tickets at the 312,75 rate falling into his clutches, A demand was made upon Mr. Nash to redcem the tickets at the regular rate, $LL75, but that veteran of many a rail- road fight wanted to be satisfled first about the cut in rates charged by the Burlington and Northwestern city agents. When the desired information camo it was somewhat different than expected, tho telegram stat- ing the rato should apply only from Utah common points, this jbeing Utah day at the World’s fair. Of course the placards had to come down quicker than they went up, and Mr. Munn's tickets had to be re- he public could havdly beliove the news, and a sadder lot of World's fair tourists could not have been found in seven states than the men who had to put up their §14.75 when a 1275 rate was insight and then pulled dow But the dignity of the “low joints" had been grossly insulted, and tojreliove theover- wrought minds of several of the city passen- ger agents at the *“eep laid scheme of Mr. Nash," the secretary of the association, Mr. Muun, has called u meeting of “the agree- meny” this afternogn at tha Elkhorn office to put Mr. Nush on trial for the crime of rate cutting. Mr. Nash i explaining the mistake said that the telegram was somewhat mislead- ing, in which’Mr. Munn azreed, and that no other construction conld be put upon the telegram than he was to sell tickets for ay at 312.75, which is a_one-way rate. Tho moment he aseertiined his mistake he ordered the placards down before any great damage had been done, UNION PACIFIC PROSPECTS, Anxlety at Readquarters Over the Em- ployes’ Muss Meoting. About Union Pacific’ headquarters this morning there was cohsiderable feeling among heads of departments that Tue Bre in its report of Sunday's meeting at Gato City hall had colored mitters considerably, but a quies canvass;of - the situation showed that _thero was Sonsiderable uneasiness underneath the surface and that the report was a reflection frouytheanirror of reality. A visit among: the men yesterday morn- ing by u reporter -shows a greatly aivided sentiment upon two of the propositions ubmitted by the committee of nrganized abor, but “generally ‘umited upon the proposition to loan the company 10 per cent of their wages until Jannary1, 1804, The men argue that they have felt the sting of hard times as much as the company, reduced train service and bad business during July and August cutting thelr salaries down con- siderably, but notwithstanding the strained condition of affairs they would be willing to become creditors of the company to the ex- tent of 10 per cent until January to ass the Union Pacific in tiding over the situa- tion. But whether or ‘not the company will accept this tender on the part of the men .is a much mooted question in labor circles. An uttorance by oue of the heads of departments giving them the cue to anticipate a refusal upon the part of the company to go into the loaning busi- ness except through legitimate banking channels is rocalled with pungent signifi- cance, West of the Colorado line the men aro in greater straits than in Nobraska or Kunsas, and they will fight reduction to the last notch, complicating matters considerably. A peaceful solution of the question is not in sight, and Goeneral Manager Dickinson no doubt recognizes this by the very careful and conservative tone he has assumed toward the men_ in discussing the probiems of mo- meut 8o far as his employes are concorned. While he discredits any talk of & strike ho nevertheless recognizes the gravity of the situation. OUT BY THE SO0 LINE. It Reduces the Rate on Flour from Minne- upolis to the Seahonrd. Ci10a6o, Sopt. 4.—The Soo line today put in an all-rail rate on flour from Minneapolis to the seaboard of 20 cents por 100 pounds and o luke and rail rate of 17)¢ cents, This will be a heavy blow to the Chicago lines, 48 the rate via Chicago and Minneapolis to the seabonrd is 35 cents and the differonce is more than shippers will endure. Chairman Midgloy of the Western Frelght association will have his hands full in keeping the busi- ness of the association lines sufliciently high to make a decent showing. At the present time the great bulk of the flour is goiug via Lake Superior. Eastbound shipments last week amounted 10 50,140 tons against 43,002 tons_for the pre- ceding week and 50015 tons for the cor. responding week of last yeat.

Strike and Riot Anticipéted If Liallans Are Fut to Workion the Doo Ho'stox, Tex., Sept. &—There 18 proba- bility of a strike and'perhaps a riot in Hous- ton toduy. There was recently a strike on the Jercies at Galveston, but the contractors “ed to the demands of the men. A few 8g0 the aunouncement was made that the Mallory line, plying between New York and Galveston, would reduce wages of tho stevedores 20 per cent, to take effect on the arrival of the incoming steamer, the Leona, due 10 arrive yes! , but which will not arrive until Tuesday. "The canse of the de- lay is the fact that the Mallory line ofcials in New York discharged their 'longshoremen aud substituted Italians at $1.95 a day. Pri- vate telegrams have been received by the labor leaders in Galveston and Houston stating that the Leona has on board 154 Italiaus who are to take the places of the men now on the Jjetties, and if the ’long- shoremen or stevedores don't accept the re- duction more will be imported to take their places. The disuatehes have been sent Lo all labor chiefs in Texas and & riot may be oxpeoted. Today belng Labor day, Galves- ton turned out 3,000 strong. With stirring speechos the men will bo worked up this afternoon, and when tho importod dagos ar- rive there will be trouble. Labor circlos are dotermined, and secrot moetings are be- ng held. One of tho chiefs remarked this morning “We are with our Galveston brethren Neithor the Mallory line nor anybody else cAn impott dago labor into Texas. We are fully equippeed. 1 don't say what action we will take. but God help the dagos if they at- temot to 2o to work." WOULDN'T STAND THE CUT. Loulsville & Nuashvillo Men Strike Against a 10 Per Cent Reduction. Evansvitie, Ind., Sept. 4.—The entire wain foree employed on the Louisville & Nashville railroad went on a strike last eniug. This order included every engineer, firoman, conductor, brakeman and switch- man. 1t had been expected.

CONGRESS OF THE CATHOLICS Opening Day of the Great Mooting at Ohicago, CHURCHMEN PRESENT DISTINGUISHED Pops Leo Sends His Biessing to the As- sembled Delogates—The Subjoots Dis- cussed—A Brilliant Seene When the Procesdings Opened. Cnicago, Sept. 4.—The hall of Columbus in the memorial art palace was crowded to- day at the initial session of the groat Catho. lic congress. Interest was on tiptos in oxpectation of sensational develop ments regarding the school question and opposition to Papal Delegato Satolli's mission. The hall was decorated with the papal colors, yeliow and white, mingled with the stars and stripes. Bronze busts of Car- dinals Newman and Manning were on oither side of tho piatform. The suppressed excite- ment was particularly noticeablo when in the preliminary addresses, first, Archbishop Feohan, a warm personal friend of Arch- bishop Corrigan, gave warning against the utterance of any word to wound the Cath- olic conscience, and second, whon Cardinal Gibbons, a particular friend of Archbishop Ireland, cautioned the delegates to avoid personalisies, It was a brilliant sceno when Cardinal Gibbons, attired in a scarlet robe, ontered, followed by Archbishops Fechan of Chicago and Ryan of Philadelphia in full purple. Archbishop Iroland appeared in plain civil- ian dress. After addresses of welcome by Archbishop Fechan, President Bonny of the world's cougress auxiliary and Hon. Thomas B. Bryan, representing tho expos! tion, Cardinal Gibbons made the opening address to the congress. He also read o message from the pope bestowing his blossing on the congress and praying God to assist its deliberations and conclusions. A communi- cation was also read from Papal Delegato Satolli regrotting his inability to be present at the opening day. Edgar H. Gans of Baltimore delivered an address on The Relatione of the Cath- olic Church to the Social, Civil and Political ~ Institutions of the United There were other addresses by Alliott of the Paulist order, Walter G. Smith of Philaaclphia, Juage Morris of Washington, Richard H. Clark of New York, Mary J. Onahan of Chicago and George Parsons Lathrop. Judge Martin's Talk. Judgo Martia, who is from Washington, in discussing “the’ independence of tho holy see,” said the church is entitled to such measure of temporal authority as will secure its independenco and its froedom of action. More than this is not claimed for it; more than this would not be wise for it to possess; that the Romanspontiff may be free to be arbitrator for the affairs of our umivorsal church throughout tho nations, he must not be the subject of any power or nation him- self, for such subjection would detract from his Impartiality as well as from his inde- pendence. Tt is unjust to all of us through- out the world that the head of our religion should be under the suspicion even of controlled, constrained, or influenced temporal auttoricy of any nation claiming political jurisdiction of his person or his sur- roundings. Rev. Walter FElliott, whose address treated of the “Missionary Work of the Church in the United States,” is one of the most notable members of the organization known as the Paulist fathers, tho ranks of which are made up of converts from protes- tantism. To Miss Mary J. Onahan, whose piquant writings have made her namo widely familiar, was given the honor of being tho first woman to address a Catholic congress in America. Her subject was “Isabella, the Catholic.” Tho last speaker of the after- noon, one in whom a vast amount of interest was taken on account of his eminence in the world of lotters, was George Parsons La- throp, who contributed an able paper on the “‘Consequences and Results of the Discovery of the New World.” Tonight large meotings were held at which addresses were made by distinguished dele- gates to the congress, lay and clerical. SUNDAY SCHOOL WORKERS, Second Nesslon of Thelr World's Convention at st, Louts. Sr. Lous, Sept. 4.—L'he second session of the world's Sunday school convention began this morning at 9 o'clock.

B. McCrillis, Connecticut; J. J. McLaren, Quebec; D. R. Wolfe, Missouri; B. H. Scott, Texas; Edward Towers, London, and Rey. Dr. J. G. Felser,. Hamburg, Ger- many. As the committee retired, the retiring president, Mr. Belsey, began his address, tracing thic results of the world’s convention of 1889, Among other things he praised the American system of organization, which nad been largely adopted now by the nglish Sunday school workers. At the close of his remarks a letter of regret from Lord and Lady Aberdeen was read, after which Mr, Edward Towers of London, RRev. Hans Bier- mun of Sweden and: Rev. J. G. Felser of Germany spoke of Sunday school work in the United Kingdom, the continent in gen- eral, Sweden and Germany respectively. At this poiut Chairman McCrillis of the nominating committee presented Its report. He said that the committee had always in its mind the name of one who was best fitted for the presidency of the world's convention, This geatleman had, on hearing of this in- tention, come to them, and, b, guments most sincers and straigntforward, had al most convinced thew oot to sond in his name. The committee came to the conclu- sion that if the minating committes did not send in the name it would be presented from the floor and the gentleman nommnated and olectod by acclamation; so it decided 10 override the objections of the gentleman and nowinate Mr. B, K. Jacobs of Illinois, a number of Awmerican and forgign vice Presidents and socrotarios, Retiring Prosident Belsoy then presented Mr. B. 1% Jacobs, who showed a most marked hesitancy in accopting the nomina- tion for president.
