RROTIIKRUOOD RESOLUTIONS.
The following resolution sdopted by
the chairmen of the grievance committees
of the varieus railway systems, who are in
session nere to-day:
“While we do not withdraw a word of our
denunciation of the use of dynamite, we
don’t want the public to suppose we are
condeaining the men under accusation. The
exposures of the put few days show that
many of tbe men under arrest are detectives
acting under the direction of the infamous
Pinkerton gang. It is easy to see how such
villains could manufacture evidence against
innocent men, and put up a job that would
make unsuspecting men uy and do tilings
which could afterwards be tortured into the
appearance of criminality. The whole
business looks, at this time, like a policy
adopted to injure and disgrace the working,
men who are on a strike. We assure the
lublic that we have no sympathy with law-
estness, but we appeal to all fur minded
citizens to withhold judgment against the
men under accusation until they have been
fairly tried in a court which knows the laws
of evidence,.and which will administer them
impartially.”

THE ANARCHISTS.
One of the "Avengers," as Usual, Makes
Foil Confession.
Chicago, July 19.—Frank Schlebun, who,
with John Hronecke and Frank Chehawa,
schemed to murder Judge Gary, Judge Grin-
nell and Inspector Bonfield, has made a full
and complete cObfessiou. He was not locked
up at the armory, as were the two others,
and when Chehawa was taken to the central
station and llroueck to jail, Schlebun was
sent to an outlying police atation. He was
not subjected, us were the others, to the
ordeal of having his picture taken for the
rogue’s gallery.
Lost night Inspector Bonfield, accompa
nied by two oi bw Bohemian secret service
operatives clad in work’ngmen’s suits with
soft black bats and blue flannel shirts, visit
ed the innocent looking prisoner. Thc pre
ceding day he had intimated be was ready to
tell all he knew, and lost evening tbe inspec
tor went to tell the story through !n{« r .
ireters. Hchlebou went into the whole story
rom his Grst meeting with Hroneck and Che-
bawn. Hia confession was that Hroneck has
unfolded bis plans for reveoge and bad told
of s bomb which he(Hrontck) had invented.
It was small, uo larger than u baseball, and
was to be loaded with dynamite and bits of
broken glass. It was denied by 8chlebuu
that the plot wal to murder the judges and
the inspector, lie said he had heard of no
such definite scheme except os to Captain
Schaak, and he understood that be was to
pay more attrition to the captain than any
one else. There was no concerted plan of
action, but it was agreed that when all
preparations were made he and the two
others were to be informed by Hroneck
just what they were to do iu
th 5 way of avenging the death of tbe martyrs.
About Jaly 1st ne was visited by Hroneck,
who brought him two bombs ol the broken
glass variety and two sticka of dynamite,
from which he was to make bomba of gas
pipe, after tbe usnol pattern. The two other
men were also supplied with bombs and
dynamite. He had the stall in his house for
a week and then grew so afraid that it would
he discovered that he made awey with it by
throwing it in a privy vault
This was the substance of the confession,
which Inspector Bonfield is having pnt in
shape for nse in court The confession it
much more in detail, and covers about
thirty closely printed pages. By his con
fession, it Is understood, Schlehun virtually
secured immunity from prosecution. IIo is,
in reality, much leu guilty than either
Hroneck or Chebawa. He has agreed to
give hit testimony in open coart where it
will corroborate other evidence secured by
the inspector against the conspirators.
ster mid could be conducted by any counsel
members might name. The offer was made
with the Attorney-General’s consent. It was
net with the government’s asseni or dissent
that the Attorney-General was retained by
the Times to defend the suit brought by
O’Donnell, He was retained by the Times
in his private character as counsel. The
government did not supply him with any
material for his speech. I decline to make
any statements as to the eonroo tho fovtrn-
ment will pursue in regard to consulting the
Attorney-General. It will be in the power
of the Times to engage the Attorney-General
to attend the inipiiric.-. of the cnmniissioii in
its hr half, if it thinks fit. In accordance
with piDfessional practice, the government’s
oiler is no longer open. It applied ontire'y
to a different state of things.
»Labnuciiere asked whether the
Attorney-i Ismere], as legal adviser of the
home office, had an opportunity of learning
facts which other persons did not enjoy.
Smith—'The Attorney-General had
information whatever from the home
office.
Sexton—Will the government consult the
Aiioruey-Ucncral as to the judges who will
constitute the commis-ion?
Smith—The government will-retain full
liberty of fiction in that respect.

General Samuel Thomag, of the East Ten

said that the matter hsd never been consid
ered by the Richmond Terminal board, but
that perhaps Inman intended to conduct all
the negotiations himself. He said he had
never henrd sny price mentioned for the

matter refuted to believe that President
Kimball would be so anxious to get the

Richmond Terminal Company than he could

nounced that the association had been in

meeting would be held there about the mid

Democrats and tireenbackers to Convene
Against tbe Common Enemy.
Detroit, July 19.—The Democratic State
convention met at noon to-day. After the
calling of the roll to name various commit*
teemen and electors chosen by district cau
cuses this morning, Chairman Weston, of the
State central committee, announced that he
had received a telegram from the Green-
backers, who meet in convention at Grand
Rapids this evening, asking that a conference
committee be appointed to confer with a
similar committee from that body.
The annoucement was received witii gen
eral favor and a committee composed of a
member from each congressional district was
named and recesa taken until 2 o’clock.
That fusion will be eO'eected there seems
to be no doubt both on the State ticket and
on electors.
The convention reassembled at 2:40 o’clock
and the temporary organization was made
permanent, Neither the committee on reso
lutions nor that on conference was ready to
report and tbe time was passed in listening
to a number of short speeches, including
one hy Fx-Senator Jones, of Florida. Judge
Baldwin submitted the report of the com
mittee on resolutions, reaffirming adhesion
to the established principles ot the Demo
cratic party in national politics and indors

Why are all the Chinese for Ha'Hkoii, if

Tell the Truth.
Frrfm the Philadelphia Times (Ind.)
The Mills bill imposes treble tho pro
tective duties imposed by Washington ami
Hamilton in 1789; it imposed 10 per cent,
more protective duties than Clay imposed
in 1842; it imposed 12 per cent, more ptu*.
tectivo duties than the Morrill tarifl* inri
posed in 1861, and it imposes tlie highest
protective duties ever imposed by Con-,
gress from 1780 to 1888, excepting the fevr
years of war with England and with the
South, when high war duties were imposed
for revenue only. Why not tell the peo
ple thc truth? They will all learn the
exact truth ;'i'i.y fee! the truth by the ex

tariff cuties to oppress consumers, mid
