New York. June 16.—(Special Correspond

Palm hotel, Coney island, and the New
I’ork hotel at St. Augustine, Fla., went on
a spree today and made things hum at
West Brighton for a few hours.
He had bet n drinking champagne at his
hotel with some triends ail night, and at
noon started out to do the Bowery. After
making things very lively for everybody In
several concert halls he dropped into the
West End Casino. He carried three large
cigar boxes filled with silver coin under his
arm. After drinking more champagne in
an upper box at the Casino he began to
cheer. Soon the Smilax sisters, song and
dance performers, appeared on the stage.
They had just finished their first song ana
were leaving the stage when a shower ot
silver coins fell upon their heads.
Pitzsch had emptied one cigar box. , tie
followed soon after with another box. The
girls stooped to pick up the coins, while
the audience applauded in a wild man
ner.
Ella Wesner, the old-time male imper
sonator, followed, and the spectators roar
ed w en Miss Wesner began to guy
Pitzsch. “1 am a southern woman) how
is it you don’t throw money at me? she
shouted. .
This was more th in the hotel proprietor

In the laboratory to produce pictures of
the d< .dr ■ I clearness, both lads were awak
e: ed yesterday morning at 5:15, and at 6
o •hv’k i hey were in the ring, stripped ana
ready for business.
It was explained to the men that they
would fight two-minute rounds until tne
completion of the contest with a rest of
three minutes, quite a departure from the
usual rules.
Tnis pD.n was to give the kinetograph
and its operators a good chance.
When the men shook hands they imme
diately broke away, and Leonard, with j
his usual rushing style, punched his oppo- |

ties until he exhausted his mam. in tne 1
sixth round he knocked his man out.
BuHdlnu an Island.
When the steambort Aurora left Twenty
seccnd street and North river yesterday,
bearing a small party of promoters and
capitalists and a large party or guests,
it was unknown to most of them that they
were going upon a trip which, in years to
come, may be in history beside the stories
01 Columbus and the pilgrims. But such
was the case.
Ail that was known was that the boat ■
was going to 40.24 north latitude 73.3’1.39
west longitude to select a site for an arti- I
tidal island of steel and wood.
V. hen the steamboat got to a position 1
seventeen miles east of New Jersey, where
Navesink highlands looked like a speck
upon the horizon, Captain Patterson or

Mr. Coen, the chief promoter, saluted
and. turning to the party on board, raid:
“Gentlemen, there is a ceremony to fie
performed which you have not anticipated."
Then turning 1. ward the bow and ad

Arraign* His Party.
New York, June 18.—(Special Correspond
ence.) —Judge Albion W. Tourgee, in de
clining to seek the republican nomination
for congress in the Brooklyn district, ar
raigns his party for its corrupt, plutocratic
and monopolistic tendencies, and especially
for its evident desire to abandon the
“bloody shirt” issue. He says;
“In order to promote the general con
sideration of these questions in withdraw
ing my name as a candidate for the repub
lican nomination, I desire as a citizen and
as a republican most respectfully and earn
estly to urotest:
“1. Against the suppression and elimina
tion of the distinctive principle of the party,
equal rights and free opportunity for all
men, and the re-establishment of the old
whig party under its better name.
“2. Against making the republican party
a silent partner of the southern democracy
in taking away the rights of citizenship
from those it cost so much blood and treas
ure to redeem from bondage and clothe
with inalienable rights now forbidden them
to enjoy. Fortunately for liberty and jus
tice, God has made the permanent protec
tion of American industry impossible, ex
cept through the protection of the rights
of American citizenship. As long as tiie
free trade democracy of the south wields
the power of 6,000,u09 of citizens to whom
all voice in government is denied, so long
will northern industries feel the blight
which slavery put upon them by the same
methods.”
Tourgee is not yet willing to forgive the
North Carolinians for revolting against his
carpetbag methods when he was a political
adventurer in their state after the war,
and In his eyes the republican party is un
worthy of support when it ceases its cru
sade in behalf of the negro against the
southern whites.
A Man of Nerve.
Sometimes men who are trying to break
themselves of the tobacco habit in either
of its forms find relief for the craving or
the weed in carrying between their teem
an uniighted cigar. One of tnese "ary
smokers” got aboard a Third avenue car.
He was ordered by the surly conductor to
“put it away.” He declined in a mild term,
but in a positive manner. The car ran on
for a block, when the conductor steppea
into the car, seized the cigar and threw
' it out of the open door. “That will cost you
1 just 15 cents,” said the quiet passenger as
I he arose, seized a handle of the roa con
i necting with the register and rung up tb.ree
' fares. The conductor never said a word,
| but later on he transferred three nickels
1 from the dividend which he had declared
on the trip into the pocket reserved tor tne
funds of the company.

MEETING OF BANK PRESIDENTS
To Discuss the Quus.tJon of Furnish
ing; Gold for Export.
New York, June 19.—The presidents of the
leading bunks of New York city met at
the Union Trust Company at 3 o’clock this
afternoon to discuss the question of sup
plying gold for export. The treasury gold
reserve has run down to $<iu,981,4-16, the
lowest point since the bond sale. The
banks have about concluded to come to
the assistance of the government in the
mutter. Among those present were Pres
idents Williams, of the Chemical; King, of
tne Union Trust; Wright, of the Park Na
tional bunk; TJappen, of the Gallatin; Ives,
of the Western National; Clarke, of the
American Exchange; Carter, of tiie Bank
of the Republic; Fahnestock, of the First
National: Simmons, of the Fourth Nation.'.l;
Bal r, of the Manhattan; Cannon, of the
Chase National; Sherman, of the Bank of
Commerce, and Perkins, of the Bank of
America.
George G. Williams, president of the
Chemical National bank, presided at the
meeting. He took a serious view of the
situation. He said that if the gold re
serv-- in tiie treasury were allowed to fall
too low—to $50,000,000, for instance—an alarm
might be created which would be lollowed
by serious consequences. He said many
m.unul'ucturers were carrying on business
at a loss, believing it would be cheaper in
the <•:.1 10 do s? than to shut down and
lose trade.
The proposition that the banks furnish
gold pro rata to exporters was opposed and
withdrawn.

BILL DALTON STILL LIVES.
So Says One of the Old Guu& Who
Ought to Know.
New York, June 17.—A special from Per
ry, Q. T., pays that one Sanders, known
as "Bitter Creek,” a member of the Dalton
gang, was convicted there yesterday of
horse sUnllng and sentenced to five years
in the penitentiary. He says he was with
the Dalton gang for five years, and that
Bill Dalton, who was reported killed near
Ardmore, I. T., is still alive. He declares
the report that be was killed was sent by a
deputy marshal to get the $25,000 reward.
Many men here who know Bill Dalton
say that the description of the dead man
doe* not fit the noted leader.
THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION: ATLANTA. GA.. MONDAY. JUNE 25, 1894.
SARGE PLUNKET.
THE OLD MAN MEETS WITH A GREAT
SCIENTIFIC GENTLEMAN.
The Good Man Is Disfranchised, bat the Bad
Man’s Suffrage Is .Secure Under the Op
erations of the Toombs Bill.
For The Constitution.
Brown says that "chewing the bag Is
preof of the pudding”—in away great scien
tific theories may be proven fallacies by
truths right before us.
A long haired, study-worn, scientific
scholar could never have got us to listen to
him, hud it not been that we are so worn
out with politics that we accept anything
for a change. Yesterday there came along
one of these “scholars,” and he had it his
own way for about four hours, but when
he had gone we had it our way. The fellow
was bristling with literature. The pockets
of his seedy Prince Albert was strutting
with periodicals, and his arms were filled
with treatises upon every subject from the
little ant to the mighty elephant, from the
minnow to the whale, from the sparrow to
the great American eagle. The evolution
of man—“how to breed men”—is the pres
sure which bore upon him through the
four hours with us, and he is coming back
in August to spend a month with us, in
order vO continue the subject.
Me ana my old ’oman are always medest
upon subjects we have but little experience
in, but Brown and his old 'oman looked
like they were on nettles just to get a
chance at this what-ever-you-may-cali-him
scholar. Not a word could they get in,
as tliis fellow went on to convince them
that it was just as easy—if th?y had known
how —to have their whole thirtesn chil
dren. heroes and heroines as to have them
the £flain cooks and clodhoppers that they
are. At every turn he would fish cut a
paper to prove what he was saying. 3he
concentration of the mind upon the kind
of child one wished was all parents Pad to
do to fill the world with Napoleons, Jennie
Linds, George Washingtons and Edisons.
Mrs. Brown shook her head a few limes,
and Brown wunk at me, but the fellow
awed them with his papers on the subject,
and even opened the lids of our Bible and
turned to where Joseph put up the striped
poles in the sheep ranch, in proof of his
theory. He had his own way lor four
hours, but when he was gone we had It
our way, and ail of ns voted that Brown’.;
experience was better than book learning
to judge this subject upon—it is all a fallacy,
says Brown; it is all a fallacy, says Mrs.
Brown. If ever two people did have their
hearts set and their minds concentrated on
having their boy great, It was this couple—
the boy is nothing.
Os course, we could not pass around in
Atlanta without listening to something
political. When Mr. Toombs pressed his
bill into the constitution of the state,
forcing the payment of taxes as a right for
suffrage, he little dreamed of how many
of his own race would be disfranchised by
its operations. If the grand old man was
living, he would be too honest to deny but
that the bill was aimed at the negro. No
defense can be made for a man not pay
ing his taxes, but it is a fact that it is
growing to such proportions that it should
catch the attention of thoughtful men and
a remedy should be sought after, it might
astound some of our “statesmen” to find out
the number of men who are disfrancnised
in Georgia at this time, and the number is
still growing. It is not the ’ oad elements”
that is mostly affected by this law. A
“bad” man can always manage to get l>.s
tax«s payed, even if lie proditu es the
ballot box by making this tax tne price
of his vote. Some good men—real good
men, but poor—are unable to vote cm ac
count of this law, and it is a shame as
well as impolitic that it should be so. It
was never the intention of Robert Toombs
to disfranchise a white Georgian—the n’-gi «
can take care of himself in this matter.
I have said it before, but it will bear re
peating right at this time, that it is the
poor white man who needs some < f the
attention that is keeping “problem solvers”
awake at night and a-iiowling by aay. I
have never been in sympathy with the
“poor man’s friend” idea, as used in poli
tics, and have always b’een suspicious of
candidates who use the theme, but I do
think that the time has come when the
conditions and the future of the poor ;
whites of the south should have attention. |
Tiie world has been too busy helping the ■
negro to rise for thirty years to give a .
thought to the poor white man. In his j
abundance of self-nonildunce, the poor
whites have been blinded to the great I
strides of the negro, and forgot that 1
wealth has much tv do with respectability— i
they forgot, or did not think of many 1
things, but 1 can teii you a-jam, as 1 pave
told you before, that “money makes the
inure go. ’
1 am well known a.s being against so much
organization, but we have organized a
society in our settlerneut recently that 1
give my hearty support and sunciier. to.
The ot.iect of this r.-w society is tc foster
and encourage the settlement of our own
surplus population upon .amis in the coun
try. Tiie main plank in the platform <4
this society is that the money spent in
bi inging emigrants from away off shall be
spent in unloading the towns of their sur
plus. 1 ran lor the presidency of this so
ciety, but my opponent had such a good
record of my past, with evidence to sus
tain, that I was overwhelmingly defeated.
The ruscal fouled me into voting against
myself. 'Phis fellow, in his opening address,
said some things that 1 thought was sen
sible—if lie did beat me. lie atfirms that
big men” lock too far off to find their
material for the improvement of the south.
Ccmmence right here, and encourage and
aid ail you can the men who are idle—
alter our own capital and labor has proiit
r.bie employment, it will be time to reach,
out—make haste at home. In the course ot
his remarks, the president exclaimed with
a great flourish that “the state cd' Georgia
donates 525,000 a year to her military eu
( ipnu nt if she would donate this amount
to building factories over there on Shoal
creek, there would soon be some excuse for
inviting foreigners to come and labor m
cur vineyard!'’ I don’t see what the mill- '
tary encampment has to do with our so
ciety, but th-- crowd went wild witii cheers— (
all crowds do when you mention the doing ■
a.way with this encampment. Some fellow
w'ill get an office yet on this issue, but it
won’t be me, for I will never run again.
But I am not going to sulk because I got
beat for th<‘ presidency. The society has 1
some good features, if their president
has sense enough to carry them out. Some ‘
of their mottoes read:
“Charity Begins ac Home. ’
“Patronize Home Industry.”
V.'hat I think is the best clause in the ,
society’s by-laws reads: “No dues shall
be exacted from any member, but if a .
brother’s crop gets in (be grass from mis
fortune. we shall work him out." ■
This ■•iause sounds like old times. It used ;
to be the custom to work a neighbor's crop j
in easei of misfortune. There was no real
poverty among country people of the south
in obi times. A poor man hud no anxiety
about losing his crop if he had sickness,
ic was a frolic for the neighbors to gather
at the sick man's house anil wuk his ,
crop over in one day. The sick man was
not disturbed in these workings, even to '
feed the workers—all carried dinner and
feed for stock, and the day passed in cheer I
and frolic.
I will mention one more clause of the ,
by-laws, because I think it graflet “If any
man shall mention politics in tin's society,
the doorkeeper shall mesh his mouth with
a stick.” I am mighty fearful there will be
some “mouth mashing.” for it is most as
bi rd to keep from talking politics as it
tif.nl to be for a young man to keep from
talking weather 1o his sweetheart.
Brown is the president of this society—
lu is the man who beat me.
The farmer boys are beginning to lay-by
corn, and blackberries are ripening. Chick
ens are ripe for tiie fries, and pies and
“big meeting” season is nearly here. The
wheat threshers ate in the land, and tb.e
crop is better than was expected. Why
should we not be cheerful and thankful.
If cotton does still remain where It seated
Itself two months ago?
There's not a wave of trouble rolls
Across my peaceful breast.
I fold my hands at lay-by time
Trust God for the rest;
Tn everything I feel content —
Except one little thing—
Being beat as Brown beat me
Is sure to leave a sting.

EXPOSITION TALK.
ENDORSEMENT FROM A NUMBER OF
SOUTHERN AND OTHER SEATES.
Louisiana Will Mako a Great Exhibit of Her
Resources—Kentucky and Ohio Endorse
It—Oilier Expositiuu Gossip.
A great day for tho exposition was lasi
Thursday.
Louisiana led off. By unanimous vote the
legislature of that state in session at Baton
Rouge urged senators and representatives
from that state to vote fur the exposition
bill and—
By unanimous vote the legislature passed
another joint resolution ordering that Louis
iana make a grand exhibit at the Cotton
States and Internation exposition.
So Louisana leads the van!
Then comes the news from Washington
that a poll of the senate appropriations com
mittee developed that the exposition bill
would in all probability receive a unani
mously favorable vote in that committee,
which insures its passage In the senate with
out a shadow of doubt.
More good news.
The great meeting in New York of repre
sentative southern men and northern
men interested in southern development
gave the exposition official endorsement,
with great enthusiasm adopting resolutions
of hearty endorsement of the enterprise.
Then, here at home—
The executive committee held a highly
important meeting, which resulted in the
adoption of the plans for the grounds as
reported from the committee on buildings
and grounds. This is a very important
step forward, for it means that as soon
as some details are worked out a force
of men will be put at work on the grounds.
Then things will boom.
Tennessee Follows Atlanta.
Nashville, Tenn., June 19.—(Special.)—A
largely attended ccftivention of delegates
from all over the state was held here to
day, and the ball was started rolling for
an exposition in 1596, in celebration or the
cetennial anniversary of the admission of
Tennessee into the union, that will be com
mensurate with the progress of <_hc state.
Judge R. J. Morgan was permanent chair
man of the convention. The conven
tion chose directors and officials, and gave
instructions that a charter for the Tennessee
Centennial Exposition Company be at once
secured.
Nat Baxter, Jr., was selected for presi
dent; W. H. Jackson, John Overton Jr., and
W. A. Henderson, vice presidents; T. T.
Wright, secretary; A. NV. Wills, director
general; W. C. Smith, director of works;
Frank Goodman, auditor, and sixty direct
ors from over the state.
The capital stock will be $500,000, and
Director General Wilis left for New York
tonight to interest capitalists in the expo
sition as a means of developing the re
sources of the state.
GOOD FOR CHICAGO.
The Board of Tnade Indorses the In
ter uat io nal Exposition.
Chicago, June 19.—(Special.)—The most
important endorsement victory of tb.e expo
sition was achieved today by Colonel Avery
in the unanimous passage of the following
resolutions by the Chicago Board of Trade,
the most powerful commercial organization
in the country, representing this great city
of 1,700,009 people:
“Resolved, That the board of trade of
the city of Chicago, 111., approves heartily
tiie Cotton States and International exposi
tion in its important commercial objects
of strengthening our national trade.
“Resolved, That all parts of the union
have an interest in the results of such a
movement, and that Illinois, and Chicago,
should show their large and powerful re
sources and means for international eom
' “Resolved, That we respectfully suggest
to our national senators and representa
tives that they support the measure fcr a
national exhibit, favorably reported by the
appropriations committee of the house, and
that a copy of these resolutions be sent to
each.”
Cincinnati is With Atlanta,
Cincinnati, 0., June 19. —(Special.)—Atlan-
ta should understand that in her exposi
tion project she lias a zealous and powerful
ally In Cincinnati. The business men of
this properly dubbed "queen city of the
west” have with their praotical sagacity
been pushing trade South America.
The exposition is squarely on her line and
she rejoices to have such a colleague as
the Gate City.
Apart from this special unity of aim, how
ever, Cincinnati feels close brotherhood
to Atlanta by reason of her geographical
relation to her, pnd also by the reciprocal
spirit of a common go-abeada€lveness that
belongs to both, and marks the citizenship
of each to a striking degree.
'The vigor with which they rallied to the
first suggestion of endorsement was enthus
ing. Said General Michael Ryan, tiie able
president of the chamber of commerce and
merchants’ exchange: "Atlanta’s project is
ours.” He and Mr. Charles B. Murray,
the superintendent of the body, co-operated
to the fullest, and the great organization
of cool-headed, practical men, passed the
earnest resolutions with a rush.
General Ryan is a line speaker and his
.utterances were ringing. He very kindly
introduced Atlanta’s envoy, commended the

Ohio is With Us.
Cincinnati, 0., June 20.—(Special. —Colonel
Avery, special commissioner for promoting
the proposed exposition to be held at At
lanta, having brought the matter before the
board of trade and transportation of this
city, that body passed the foilowing resolu
tions:
“Resolved, That the board of trade and
transportation of Cincinnati congratulates
tiie people of Atlanta, Ga., in view of the
probable success that will attend their ef
fort to inaugurate a Cotton States and In
ternational exposition in that city, to be
opened September, 1895, and on behalf of
the merchants and manufacturers of this
great Industrial center of the United States,
which is bound by a commercial bond of
iron to Atlanta, promises the undertaking
hearty support. This the board of trade
and transportation does the more will
ingly because the undertaking is in direct
line with its own efforts to establish for
Cincinnati a large foreign trade with the
South and Central American republics via
the ports of tiie gulf, which involves inci
dentally such an export and import tonnage
over our southern roads, as will eventually
convert them into great trunk low-rate
lines.
“Resolved, That Ohio’s representatives In
congress are requested to earnestly support
the resolution for a national exhibit at said
exposition favorably reported to the house,
and that copies of these resolutions be for
warded to the congressmen and senators of
Ohio.”

A COLORADO OUTRAGE.:
The Adjutant General of the State
Tarred and Feathered.
Colorado Springs, Col., June 23.—Shortly I
after midnight Adjutant General Tarsney,
of the Colorado state national guard, was ;
called from his room at the Alamo hotel,
and informed that somebody at Cripple
Creek wished to speak to him over the
telephone, and when he appeared to answer
the rail he was confronted by masked men,
armed with revolvers, who requested him
to accompany them.
General Tarsney called for help, but was
quickly clubbed into submission. Several ;
more kidnapers appeared and carried him
to the sidewalk, where two carriages under
guard were in waiting. He was forced
into one carriage and both carriages were
then driven at a rapid rate to Austin bluffs. ;
General Tarsney was then removed from
the carriage, stripped, and a coat of tar
and feathers quickly administered. After
tar and feathering him General Tarsney was
warned against returning to the springs.
Governor Waite Moves.
Denver, Col., June 23.—Governor Waite
has ordered a special train to leave for
Colorado Springs at 11 o’clock. It is be
lieved that he intends to go to the springs
in person to assist in the hunt for General 1
Tarsney and the men who kidnaped him.
Governor Waite is greatly excited over '
the outrage committed upon Adjutant Gen- ,
oral Tarsney, and has offered a reward of
$1,009 for the arrest and conviction of any ;
of tho participants.
General Tarsney is a brother of Congress- .
man Tarsney, of Missouri, and ex-Congtess
man Tarsney, of Michigan. He was the
personal representative of the governor
during the police board troubles when the
militia was camped opposite tiie city hall.

THE NEGRO BARRED.
Only Whites Eligible to Membership
in the Railway Unl«>n.
Chicago, June 19—The national convent'on
of the American Railway Union this morn
ing, by fl. vote of 113 to 102, refused to strike
out of the amended constitution the ciouse
declaring that membership shall be restrict- ;
ed to railway employe* born of white j •
parents. The question was debated yester- |
day for nearly ten hours, and just before ‘
adjournment last night a teat vote indi- I :
ccited that those favorable to the admission ( ;
oX the negro member«hlp were slightly in i
rae majority. The opposition, however,
succeeded in postponing a final vote until '
this morning. Immediately after the open- j :
ing of the convention, a demand was made i
for a roll call. This was a tedious pro- j
cess, occupying nearly two hours. But it
was developed that the opposition had
proved successful by the narrow majority ,
of eleven. Considerable enthusiasm was
manifested. President Debs stated that,
while he regarded the decision as unfor
tunate, yet the defeated element would !
cheerfully acquiesce in it.

Leavenworth, Kan., June 19. —Judge
Thomas today sentenced Sanders’s common- 1

to SSO each. The prisoners were divided Into ]
five batches, each going to a different
county jail. This, it is thought, will effec
tually break up tne army. When the news
of the verdict of guilty was conveyed to
the commonwealers, the prisoners made a
rush for liberty. The deputy marshals shot .
one man, who crawled into the brush.
Nearly forty men made their escape. Com

Why Is It That So Many People
Arc Miserable?
A PROFESSIONAL VIEW.
A Gentleman Who Has Carefully Ob
served, Tells the Secret Cause of It
AH.
“It seems surprising, but it is unfortunate
ly true, that many men and women who
ought to feel bright, strong, active and
happy at this time ot the year, are tired out,
weak and miserable.”
It was the eminent Dr. Clarke, of New
York, who made this startling remark.
“The number of people who complain of
feeling languid, worn out, and generally
under tiie weather,” he continued, “who
are feverish, restless, with uncertain appe
tites, irregular sleep and similar troubles,
seems to be increasing. Why they are in
that condition neither they nor their
friends know any more than many u£ the
doctors do.”
The physician paused a moment, reflected
carefully, and then said:
“There is generally but one cause and
that can usually be traced to some forgot
ten incident, a neglected cold, a chill, pos
sibly the grip, but it has left its effects
on the system. It has acted like a bad
spot in a choice fruit. The strange thing
about it is that it almost always affects
one, and only one, organ of the body, and
from that the poison spreads over the en
tire system. Tails organ is the 'kidneys,
and this poison is uric acid. If tiie kidneys
are strong and healthy and throw tiie uric
acid from the blood there is no rheuma
tism, no neuralgia, no nausea, and sick head
aches, no restless feelings, no n regularities
or coated tongue. This is the secret cause
of all these troubles, in a nutshell.
“1 have spoken frankly, you will say,”
he continued, "yes, but it is a serious mat
er and affects the life and happiness of
thousands of people. Few people suspect
the presence oi kidney disease, because it is
so deceitful a trouble. It steals like a
thiet into the system and robs the health
before its presence is known. I have had
a great experience upon this subject, and J
say to you frankly, that 1 know of but one
thing that will stop this trouble and keep
the Kidneys healthy, the body perfect, the
health good. The remedy to which I refer
is Warner’s Safe Cure, which, of course, is
now the standard remedy of the world for
kidney trouble, Brights disease and the
various afflictions to which women are sub
jected. It is purely vegetable, it is pow
erful, and at the same time harmless, but
I advocate its use promptly and without
delay in every ease where the first symp
toms are detected. It was this remedy
which restored and has kept in complete
health so many prominent men and women
of this country, and which is endorsed not
only by physicians and scientists, but by
ministers of the gospel, priests and those
who have the spiritual as well as physical
well-being of people at heart!”
“Then you think, doctor,” I asked, that
most of rhe physical troubles about which
people are complaining during June can be
traced to the cause that you have named?
“I do, most assuredly, and I believe they
can be avoided by following the suggestions
I have made. I'have seen so many cases
where this has proven true, that I have
good ground for my belief, and if you, or
any of your friends, young man, are out
of sorts or have any of the symptoms of
which I have spoken, I advise you to stop,
reflect and act promptly and in time.”
TO BOYCOTT THE PULLMAN CARS
Unless Hie Tronltle st Pullman I*l
Shortly Settled.
Chicago, June 22. —Unless the Pullman Pal
ace Car Company consents, within five days,
to arbitrate its differences with its lata
employes, who are now on a strike at Pull
man, 111., a boycott will be declared by the
American Railway Union on every
organization. This assertion was made last
night by President Debs and Vice President
Howard, of the union. The action was de
cided on at the last session of the officers,
who have the matter of procedure entrusted
to them. It was re’solved by the union in
this convention to levy an assessment of 3
cents a week on all members of the union
for the relief of the Pullman strikers.
President Debs said that the Illinois Cen
tral and the Monon roads would gladly cut
off all Pullman cars, and that all the large
cities of the states west of the Alleghenies
and east of the Rockies would join in the
boycott.
