It was not productive of final reaulu, but is understood to have offered considerable encourage ment of peace. It took place at the Builders- and Traders' exchange rooms In the New York Life building. Five repre sentatives each from the contractors, Brlckmakers' union No. 27 and Hod Car riers' No. 8.042. constituted the assemblage. At their meetings Tuesday the unions mentioned elected their delegates and Hoi Carriers' union No. 10,130. the exclusive white man's union, elected Ave delegates to look after the conference merely for the pnrpos of seeing what was done. This union Is opposed to the action of the other two In Instituting these negotiations nd placing themselves on record as In favor of V returning to work regardless of the team sters. It Is generally believed that little .-timet will be lost between these factions In getting together on terms that will place the men back to work. It has been generally understood for some time that tho contractors were willing to grant the stage schedules demanded by the hod carriers and brtcylayer. but It Is not understood that they will sign the agre ment for recognition of the unions.

In order to get It to grade Kubat had to put thirty foot pilings under it. Then cams heavy rains and washed the piling out. This was too much grief so Kubat commenced suit against the city for damages in the sum of $2,000. When Mayor Koutsky heard of the suit he went to Kubat and promised him a Job on the fire department for the balance f his term If he would withdraw the suit. Kubat agreed to this and in structed his attorney accordingly. When notified of his discharge by the board he at once telephoned his attorney In Omaha to file the suit at once and to get it up for hearing a soon a possible. Vail Confer with Parker.

HENSEL TACKLES WILD WEST Constable with Writ of Attachment Has Some Anxious Moments. For awhile Tuesday night Constable A. R. Hensel was In a brown study and a cold sweat. It wa up to him to seise something belonging to th Luella Fore-paugh-Flsh Wild West show, and he didn't know wher to begin. He ha never been In either African Jungle or Wyoming fast nesses and to such a man It is no pleasure to grow familiar with an aggregation of tha world's terrors. When he attempted to reconnolter the whole show seemed to grow suspicious. The elephant trumpeted omnlously and blew cinders In his face. The dromedary twitched nervously a hind foot that looked, to Hensel, like the main entrance to St. Joseph's hospital. The bronchoes bit great holes In the hickory stakes and pointed their ears toward Forest Lawn cemetery. The Injuns began a war dance, the cowboy took to shooting holes In each others' hat and even the lady rider smelled of powder. Constable Hensel is a veteran and a war rior who has mef all sorts of foe, from a Johnnie Red to an Irate tenant, but the Wild West proposition looked a little too stiff for one lone, -.God-fearing man to tnckle single handed. Besides, the papers he had brought from Justice Foster' court only called for about $25 In settlement of the wage claim of nine discharged "rasor backs," and it seemed to him that diplo macy ought to be able to bring about sat isfaction without recourse to methods mili tary. Accordingly he approached the box office, read his order In attachment and suggested that the discharged employes' bills be paid before he should be compelled to proceed further. "And, prithee; sirrah, If wo pay not the ducats, then what wllst thou do?" Inquire! an official of the show, In the language characteristic of circus people. "Gad xooks, fellow," responded the con stable with a haughty leer, "I will tele graph ahead that thy canvas yankers have the measles, that thy 'candy butchers are consumptives and that thy ticket sellers are breaking out with smallpox." 'Zounds, man! 'TIs too awful to think upon. 'Twould knock our fair enterprise galley west to have such false report a-started. Say no more. The satisfaction thou demandest Is thine. Here, take It, and may we part as friends!" "The pen Is mightier than the sword," remarked the cunning constable as he rodo back to court with the sesterce In his hand, "but diplomacy, In my opinion, has them both skinned soma seven city blocks when It Cometh to bringing the wary Wild West to taw."

In the meantime a committee, comprising W.i T. Graham, Ernest, Sweet and D. V. Sholes, representing the exchange is to Investigate such duties and expenses and be prepared to report at that meeting. The committee was appointed at yester day's meeting by President Harrison, after a long discussion of tha general proposition and a debate upon the propriety of asking the city officers to appear. The noon program opened with an over ture on the loud pedal by Ernest Stuht, who reminded the exchange that he has secured a temporary injunction to prevent the extension of the gas company' fran chise, and would like to have the exchange "Investigate the importance of prosecuting the suit and preventing the extension of the contract at this Urn," explaining that he bellevea that by advertising for com petitive bids the city "can secure lights for $lS(per year, Instead of $30, a proposed."

William II. Baldwin, Jr., read lettere and telegram sympathising with the object of th meeting from Lyman Abbott, John F. Dillon, Carl Schuri. United Btates Senator Piatt. William D. Howell and Rev. W. C. Bitting. Mr. Baldwin also read the resolution which denounced the maaaacr. urged th claim of th Jaw in Russia to just treat ment and protection and declared "that th people of the United State should exercise such influence with the government of Rus sia a the ancient and unbroken friendship between them and the United State ehould Justify, to redress the lnjurle Inflicted on the Jew of Kishlneff and to prevent the recurrence of outbreak such a have amaxed the civilised world.'.' Mr. Cleveland said: I have only a word to lay, but I wish to be counted among those who are In hearty svmpathy with the purpose of this meeting. The Influence which have called u to gether tonight hav occurred out of our recognition of the prompting of civilisa tion, and our duties to the best and deepest of our national characteristics. This demon stration furnishes cheering and reassuring evidence that our American sympathy for the oppressed and abused, wherever they may be, our American love of humanity and our attachment to Justice and right, ar still active and unimpaired. Thero 1 another-trait Interwoven In the warp and woof of our national character, which is here exhibited In most gratifying freshn-iss and strength. Our people, when their sym pathies aro touched, when their humane in stincts are aroused, are not afraid to speak, and in such circumstances it la not their habit to smother or cautiously soften their words. Every American humane entlment ha been shocked by a late attack on the Jew in Russia, an attack murderous, atrocious and in every way revolting. As member of the family of mankind, and a citlsen of a free nation, w are here to give volcn to the feeling that hould stir every true man and every American worthy of the name. There Is something horrible In the wholesale murder of defenseless men. wo men and children, when assured of safety under the protection of a professedly civ ilised government. Such things live rls to a dlatreaalng fear that even th enlight enment of the twentieth century ha neither destroyed nor ubduel th bar barity of human nature nor wholly re deemed the civilised world . from "man's inhumanity to man." We and all our countrymen proten In the strongest language at our command and with th moral force which our Amer ican ritlsenshlp give ua, against these murders and outrage, and we Insist that slwft and condign punishment ought to be visited upon their barbarous perpetrator. Nor It this all, we will in a fashion, quite American and with open handedness, al ways display when human distress appeal to ua, assist the families made headless and robbed of support by murder, and those, who, wounded and terrorised and In hunger and want, have been driven from their homes. I know how easily our Indignation promote us to ths use of strong language and I know how naturally w are tempted to Indulge In overdrawn statement and extravagant demands on such occasion a this, and I am sure that In our char acterisation of the crimes wa her con template and In expresalng our detesta rSiipiAA Tt t KAA nCklt " . , ww-m uhuciu ATQllUCt UVbOOer, V, IHUm. g forty-three bottle, of medicine and finding no relief for leucorrbaea V ine of Dardui and fourteen hntrlM ounJ Thi. ....... !... iaiiiH luriv-iuree) oouie Ol meaicine ana I took V ine of Cardui and fourteen bottle, 1 I MA t 11 . i .

I do not ay that the RuasUn government may not by Bins of omission ot commission be Justly deserving of Our condemnation, but w Should not be swift to assume this, when wa remember that we ourselves have found It impossible to prevent mob violence and murJerou as saults In Wyoming and on th Italian In Louisiana. I am distinctly and unequivocally In fror of Informing our government In unmistak able term of our Indignant and deep con demnation of tho lata outrage on tb Jew In Russia, but I hope In obedience to American conservatism, which 1 not long obscured that we may be now lust ana fair and that we will be content to forego perplexing and extreme demand upon our government for violent action. Our public Servants should hear us pk, but we certainly ought to be Justified In trusting th core of our national honor and duty in the premise and tha enforcement ot the humane Instinct ef our people so far as this may be within governmental action, to those charged with th respon sibility of managing our public affair. In the meantime let th peopl of th United State gather together In such -semblages as this, in every part of th land fearlessly speak to the civilised world. f protesting against every preterm of eivil satlon that permit medlval persecu tion, against every bigoted creed that tor bids religious toleration and freedom of conaclenoe, against all false entlghtenmant. gainst cruelty to man and against all spurious form of government rroteetlon that withhold from any human being the right to live In safety and toil In peace.
