tlon , tliut they might inoiilro Into the stand
ing , the aiiiount of work they do mul the
number of men they employ. Tomorrow will
le spent liy the arbitration committee in in-
vritlgutlng these contractors mid their claim
of being nlilo to give employment to : lHX ( ) men.
Nhonld tile assertions of the bosses as to their
stundlng bo verified upon examination , some.
iirrnngeniont may be made tomorrow nfht | to
allow their men to resume work. A large
number of the strikers' leaders , however , uro
opposed to nny work being permitted till thu
whole strike shall bo definitely settled.
Dull us thu preceding days of the strike
have been , today , from a labor xtniulpoint ,
was more Inert , Kveu nt the new ball purlt ,
where each morning bus seen un attempt by
the contractors to resnnio work , not a ham
mer moved. More mid more of the kindred
tradesmen were idle today utid the industrial
palsy is Hpreuding , Should the strike last
over into next week it is probable that thu
present trembling mid uncertain activity of
thu building trades may give place to com
plete pai nix sis. Tlio strikers have about
agreed in aggressive measures should the
bosses continue obstinate and refuse to meet
tin- men In conference. The war will bo car
ried Into the enemies' lonntry by the strikers
calling out the mill curiicntors , who have
hitherto remained at work. This
would still nioro effectually shut
down architectural work. Hut , besides
this , the strikers have assurance that if
they say tlto word all the organized building
trades will refuse to resume work pending
the settlement of the strike. The bricklayers ,
masons , plasterers , lathers , cornice-makers ,
painters and plunders are understood as
being readv to do this. Should this program
bo curried out the result will be the greatest
strike known in the building trades for years.
The only striku winch will take pltico at the
stockyards , it now seems , will bo thr.t by the
coopers. Unless the cight-hour-iluy and re
lease from the f-tl ( deposit rule bo granted by
thu employers it is now certain that the
ooox-rs at work in all the lake packing
houses will quit work on that date.

the switchmen. He has full power to act ,
and after ho has seen the int'ii , mid officials

A move that will likely break the back

night by the I'anlmudlo roniianv. | A com-
inittco of employes presented u demand for a
change of wages and hours. Superintendent
Turner promised to scu that the demands

roads will follow suit and avert a strike. Tlio
question of a recognition of the federation ,
however , is btill unsettled mid may caubo

secured booty of no great value. While
Henry Otis lay bound in their power , they
put their pistols to his head mid threatened
him with instant death unless ho told them

An Interior department official Is out In an
Interview In this evening's Star , taking issue
with the sentiment expressed by Jesse Sp-.il-
dlng , government director of the Union Pa
cific ruilwuy , In the report published In Tun
llii : : of last Tuesday morning. The official
says : "I cannot agree with Air. Spaldlng's
conclusions and am of the opinion tlr.it mem
bers of congress wlio support the pending
funding bill will bo somewhat embarrassed In
satisfying their constituents that they did
wisely in voting for the bill. In the first
place , there is no pressing haste us to a settle
ment of the matter. The bonds are not duo
for seven years , and no action can bo taken
toward demanding their payment until that
time. Meantime it is not unlikely that the
situation may bo very materially changed.
I do not believe that any sound business man
desires to see the government ttiko control of
thu Puclllo railroads ( nor is there the slight
est danger that it will ever get control of
them ) , but there nro very ninny people who
believe that they should bo made to pay
their honest dubts the same as other people
and corporations are compelled to do. I fun
extension of time is to bo runted , the time
should not bo unreasonably long and the rate
of Interest should certainly bo en.ua ! to what
the government has to pay upon its own in
debtedness. People who are paying from ( i to
10 per cent Interest , us very many are nil over
the country on mortgages held against them ,
and nro compelled to pay when the mortgages
become duu or submit to foreclosure , will not
be likely to see much justice in the govern
ment granting to two great and wealthy rail
way corporations an extension of fifty und
seventy-five years nt an interest of from I1.i
to. ! per cent. There Is no force in Air. Spnld-
ing's suggestion that the Pacific roads are
embarrassed by government control. Surely
not if all of the government directors and olll-
ciuls haying to do with them feel us kindly
towards them as he evidently does. If it bo
true , as Air. Spalding says , that thu Union
Pacific can put up sSII. < KX.i , < H)0 ) additional se
curities , then can not it borrow the money on
those securities und pay this debt ! "

WARIIISOTOV , April 13. Tn the house this
morning , Mr. Knlouof Tennessee , rising to n
question of privilege , sent to the clerk's desk
and had read an article from the Mew York
Press declaring that n gigantic Job hud been
discovered In the southern war claims bill In
troduced by him. The article further states
that Mr. Thomas of Wisconsin , chairman of
thu commlttco on war claims , had denounced
the bill us ono of the most Infamous jobs
which had over been foisted upon congress.
Mr. Thomas said ho had not censured lyiy
member of the committee. Ho stated that if
the bill passed the house It would bo Infam
ous because ho thought ho could prove that a
number of claims on the bill were claims of
persons notably disloyal.
Mr. Kuloo said that the clmriro In the arti
cle that ho had brought the bill before tlio
house in a surreptitious manner was n false
hood made by the correspondent ,
or a falsehood made for him nml repeated by
him. His action in regard to the bill hud al
ways been straightforward and ho denounced
the aiticle us a slander on the bill ami on the
members of the committee.
Mr. Thomas reiterated his statement that n
number of claims In the bill W TO thosu of
disloyal persons and that u number of them
had nuver been examined by the committee.
Mr. lititterworth of Ohio moved that the
house go into committee of the whole for the
consideration of the legislative appropriation
bill , but the friends of the calendar mustered
a sufficient force to defeat tlio motion yeas ,

Mr. Cannon of IllinoissubniiUodadisagree-
ing conference report upon the national Xoo
bill. The report having been agreed to , Mr ,
Cannon moved that thu house insist on its
amendment , which requires the District of
Columbia to bear half the burden of the ex
pense of maintenance of the park.
The ( notion lo insist was agreed to yeas ,

asked for.
Mr. Lawler of Illinois presented a protest
of members of the hardware association of
the United States upon the proposed rate of
duty on cutlery and guns. Hoferrcd.
Air. Petei-s presented a petition of several
hundred citizens of Kansas opposing any re
duction of revenues until the service pension
had been granted.
Mr. Henderson of Illinois reported the river
and harbor appropriation bill and it was re
ferred to the committee of the whole.
The house then went into committee of the
whole on the private calendar.
The court of claims bill was first on the
calendar and Mr. Thomas offered a resolution
to report the bill back with the recommenda
tion that it bo referred to the committee on
rules for investigation of the status of the
measure in connection with the rules of the
house. Lost.
The point of order was raised by Mr. Kerr
that thu committee on war claims hud no
jurisdiction over the rule.
Mr. Thoiims of Wisconsin then offered n
resolution that tlio bill bo reported buck to the
house with the recommendation that it bo re
committed with Instructions to the commit
tee on war claims to inquire into the loyalty
of each claimant. Ho said each bill contained
L's.1 claims , based on thu pretended findings of
the court of claims. Of this number there
were eight cases where no findings were
transmitted to congress. In ltd cases the
usual method of ascertaining tlio loyalty of
the parties had not b.x-n followed. The com
mittee on war claims had bunched these liNl
claims without any examination or investiga
tion. The secretary of war had transmitted
to the committee since the report of the bill
a statement showing that in eighty-four eases
the claimants filed vouchorstfor supplies fur
nished confederates , or done soineouierthing
indicating disloyalty.
DMr. Cannon said that if this was correct the
house dare not pass thu bill until it was thor
oughly investigated.
Mr. Jiiiclmimn of Xew.Torsey denounced the
attempt to drag through a corrupt measure
y.'ith incorrupt cases.
Mr. Houk of Tennessee said it was not so
much corruptness as a desire to kill the bill.
This precipitated a wordy war , in which
Messrs. liuchumin , Ilouk , Kerr and others
took part.
Mr. Stockdalo of Mississippi argued that
the fact that a man signed a voucher for fur
nishing supplies to the confederate army was
no proof of disloyalty. If ho had not signed ,
his property would have been taken anyway.
Mr. Houk spoke for tlio loyal men of the
south , declaring Unit had it not been for them
the confederacy would have succeeded.
After n tilt between Messrs. Houk mid
Orosvenor a resolution offered by Mr. Ale-
Comas was agreed to , recommitting the bill
with instructions to the committee to report
it back within two weeks , and that the bill be
placed at the head of tlio calendar.
The resolution was reported to the house
and Mr. ( Jrosvenor raised a point of order ,
and the speaker ruled the resolution out of
order. The hill , therefore , went buck on the

present and expressed his vlewtl > suld Un
reason for his advocating ( he \ \ 'pilntt ' In
bullion of certificates Issued for I mvhaso
of bullion was thut It would nmkt certlll-
cutes mini ! valuable. To rcqulr < \ .jlr re
demption In silver dollars wouliflie , In his
opinion , to discredit these , while to require
their redemption in gold coin might seriously
embaruss the government. Ili > Insisted thu't
there are only two ways In which the govern
ment can Iw protected in the isstieof the largo
numberof treasury notesYontoinpluted. One
is by the bullion redemption proposed
In his bill , ami In mithorl/.ing the sale of
bonds to provide a gold reserve It becomes
necessary to redeem them. The latter policy
ho believed wholly unnecessary mid unjusti
fiable , und hence there Is no other means of
protection than thu bullion redemption prop
osition. He said ho deemed this feature abso
lutely essential In protecting the credit , of the
country and would feel It his duly to oppose
any measure that gave holders of certificates
the option In the currency In which It should
bo redeemed.
After the secretary hud given his views
upon the bill and the basis for them , u discus
sion , rathei * desultory in its niiture , took
phico upon the subject of thinnsuftlciency of
circulation. Secretary \Vindom had stated to
the committee that thu total circulation wus
SIrjtMXHikH ( ) , an average of $ ' . ' 1.70 per capita
on a basis of JMKkXHI ( ( ) ( population. Actually ,
however , this sum wus subject to diminution
by several amounts that are tied up in vari
ous ways-reserves held for redemption of
notes , etc.so that the pcrcuplta umoiuil was
considerably less than S-.JI.70. The
secretary agreed with the senators ,
us he had with the representatives ,
that mi addition to the circulation was nec
essary , hut in conference today no definite
sum was asked by any one.
Some of the committee were in favor this
morning of conceding the point insisted on by
thu secretary that of making the purchase
certilicutes redeemable in bullion , but to this
the silver men say they will not agree under
any circumstances. There is also a difference
of opinion among the committecmen upon the
proposition to miiko the purchase certificates
legal tender.

WASHINGTON , April IS. The Pun American
conference practically concluded its labors
today. There was u warm discussion this
morning on the report of the committee on
the general welfare regarding arbitration.
Differences developed which bade fair to
block the way to a conclusion.
Finally Air. lilaine , who hud been absent at
the cabinet meeting , arrived , asked for u 10-
ccss and invited the committee on general
welfare to join him in considering the mutter.
Air. Dlnine made u brief speech , in which he
said that the resolutions of Mr. Qiiintana hud
been changed from being in perpetuity to run
at even dates with the treaty of arbitration.
Ho proposed that the following bo ac
cepted as n substitute for the
first , second , third und fourth resolutions
of the original text : That the principle of
conquests shall not , during the continuance
of the treaty of arbitration , be rccognircd us
admissible under American public law ; that
all cessions of territory bo void if made under
threats of war or the presence of unarmed
force ; any nation from which such cessions
are to bo exacted may demmid that tlio
validity of the cessions bo submitted to arbi
tration ; any renunciation of the right of arbi
tration inudu under threats , etc. , bo null and
void.

The lilnlno substitute was put and curried
with acclamation und cheers except from

Dr. Silva of Columbia proposed that n
Latin-American library be founded in Wash
