NELLK BLY VISITS PULLMAN
The Now York World prlttH an inter
esting -story of Nellie Bly'i visit to
Pullman. She interviews a number of
tho employes nnd their -wives, soml of
whom she finds In n half starved con
dition. The llttto shat la doled out to
them by tho relief committee Is barely
enough to keep soul sad body together,
These Interview# are Instructive In
many -wnys. They ahow that the em
ployes did not -want to Mrlk9. The
little they -were receiving was better
than nothing. They show also the
temper of «he people now. -when they
feel -the- pinch of Hunger.
The first person she Interviewed was
the man who kept -Mr. Putt-man's sta
bles. 11* said;
"Will you toll -me honestly If you
think tho Rut-man workmen were
treated iustly?"' .. . .
"1 do." was she derided reply,

room house, for which I pay |18. “

“I didn'-: strike. I didn't know no
more about It-than you did Ull I came

we're out we can starve, but we won't

what we ask
"What did you work at?"
"I cleaned the cars before they were
shipped. I used to 'ave from four to
seven boy helper*. I cot Il.SO a day,
but w*at wast had in a family of
right?" ,
•'But you aursly are ntf*. blaming
Mr. Pullman because of the size of
your family?" I protested.
"No, ’ardly,” he granted with a
laugh. "I suppose I bad all the pay
the job was worth, but It's the rents as
was tbs 'tough job. We pay 17 a month
for these two rooms. *s you see. and
80 centa a month tor water, so after

we get up an' 'ungry we go to feed,
and the men w'at ordered ue out and
‘.he millionaire* w'at employed us get
'long just as well a* ever.
The two rooms for which they pay
17.80 ^ month are a* miserable and
poor os any that -will be found In *lhe
New York tenement district. I assert
here and now that the rents for tene
ments in New York city are not so
high as those in Pullman. In -those
two -rooms—the bedroom Just the size
of the bed. which they must crawl over
the foot to get into—and a room about
twice the size, which Is sitting room,
ding room and parlor, live the father,
mother and six children, the eldest a
girl eged II, -the youngest a boy of
5 months.
A KNIFE IN HIS HACK.
"What do you think the strike will
bring you?" I asked.
‘Higher wages and lower rents."
'But tf It falls?”
"It can't; tMr. Pullman 'as got to
give In."
"You can't starve him out, and he
doesn't -have to beg shoes.” I sug
gested.
"But I 'card some talk <ha-t ’* could
feel a knife tn 'Is back,” grimly.

ATHENS BANNER IN TROUBLE.
Baltimore, July 11.—The Manufactu
rers’ Record bf this dty pubHshes a
letter from ex*Goverftor Hubbard of
Texas to Senator John T. Morgan In
regard to the Nicaragua- euiial, baaed
on a study of this question made by
Governor Hubbsvrd while he was the
United States minister to Japan, from
1885 to 1890. Governor Hubbard states
that during the time he made a careful
investigation In China* Corea, India
and Japan of the effect the building of
this canal would have upon our trade
wfrth Aria. His study of the question
convinoed him Hhai the varly opening
of a ship canal across the Isthmus of
Panama to at* Imperative necessity to
our country In order to grasp and con
trol, as we then would, the greater part
of .the vast trade with 600.000,000, people.
Governor Hubbard sa<y« that at the
time of his ministry at- Tokio he had
frequent conferences with the premier
of the Japanese government, with the
Chlneou minister to Japan und with the
leading and thp wealthiest representa
tives of the great tea and silk mer
chants of the Bast, at which confer
ences 1**. was assured that so great was
thel rfleslre to see the Nicaraguan
canal -built, that if the United States
government would guarantee " 3 per
cent, bonds, China, Japan and Con a
would hike tfhese bonds at par in auy
umount from 8400,000,000 to 8500,000.000,
If necessary, and pay for them In gold.
They insisted that England and the
continental powers were their enemlve,
and were opposed to the abolition of
restrictions upon trade aa fastened on
them by the trvutles of Commodore
Perry's time, whereby the custom
houses of China, Japan and Corea con
Impose no higher rate than 5 per cent,
ad valorem, while Christian nations
impose'Whatever duties they bee proper,
often amounting to prohibition; that
while England, a free trade country,
sends her whiskies and wines to the
Orient with only a. 5 per cent, duty
permitted to be collected, she reserves
the right to Impose on the native v/ihes
of Japan an excise duty of 1W per cent.
Governor Hubbard then refers In de
tail to th** desire of these eastern coun
tries to make new commercial treaties
with tlie United State^, and of fhelr in
terest in the early construction of the
Nicaragua canal, in order to make pns-
the development of their trade
with America. He says they are very
anxious for direct trade with the Uni
ted States, and especially with the
South and West, in order to exchange
tlr^r teas and silks und wares for our
wheat, cotton, petroleum, etc. He says
that his investigations proved that in
the first, year after the completion of
a ship canal across the isth'mus. China,
Japan and other cistern countries
would 3,000,000 bal«» of our beBt
cotton nhd pay us higher prices than
wo now* receive from ‘Emrllrfh buyers.
With this cana? completed, the South
could, he says. Increase Its cotton pro
duction to 20,000,000 bales nnd find a
market for It, because 600,000,000 of the
Orientals are -anxious for more cotton
fabrics thin they are now able to se
cure. But 4n addition to the enormous
iucrease In the consumption of cotton
them would be an equally great in
crease 1n nil other lines of our trade
with Asia, Including flour and general
mmufnofures.
If the United States government
does not act In securing tlio construc
tion of tto* rami. Gov. Hubbard says.
Englnud. prance and Germany stand
ready to furnish the money; nnd then
wo would Immedta tely be brought face
to face with the (Monroe doctrine.
