Railroad Building at a Low Ebb.
'The-Railroad Gazette reports that
' only 495 miles of new railroad track
have been laid in this country during
the six months ending on the 1st day of
- July, which is the lowest half-year’s
7 record in many years. The annual in-
crease of mileage was 1,177 in 1865,
1,716 in 1866, and 1,711 in 1875. For
very other year since the war it has
been oftener above 4,000 than below,
reaching the extraordinary figures of
11,569 in 1882 and 12,878 in 1888. ,
In the present year railroad building
has come to an absolute standstill in
twenty-two of the forty-four states.
Herein will be found" not merely an
evidence of the paralysis which lias
overtaken all the industrial activities,
but evidence of a much more conserva-
tive policy than has heretofore pre-
vailed with regard to railway construc-
tion. In many instances the'work of
construction has been overdone. Rail-
roads have been crippled by the build-
ing of branches and extensions for
which there was no urgent commercial
demand, and they have been, handi-
capped at many points by unfriendly
legislation in the operation of their
roads; The country stands in no need
of many new roads at this time. There
isno paying business for many of the
older roads, and conditions will have
to change very materially from what
they are now before much of a revival
can be expected in investments of this
character.
There will soon be an end of all rail-
road building if every sore headed
anarchist is to be permitted to either
run or ruin this species of property as
Debs and his followers have assumed
to do. ‘
The Tariff.
The democrats of the conference
committee have secluded themselves in
the inner recesses of a committee room
and are reported as laboring diligent-
ly to harmonize the sessions differences
existing in their own ranks before ad-
mitting to the committee’s sessions any
republican member of it. Were Messrs.
Aldrich, Allison, Reed or Burrows pres-
ent, it is easy to see they would be
troublesome and likely to expose some
necessary, perhaps, partisan chicanery.
So what is being done on the Tarifi‘,
cannot be known to the people now
waiting in intensest anxiety, until some
harmonious results are reached. This
secret sort of legislating was once
deemed very undemocratic, as it is very
un-American. '
The Senate Democratic conferrees
are Mr. Voorhees, of Indiana; Mr.
Harris, of Tennessee; Mr. Vest, of
Missouri, and Mr. Jones, of Arkansas;
and their Democratic associates from
the House are Mr. Wilson, of West-
Virginia; Mr. McMillin, of Tennessee;
Mr. Turner, of Georgia, and Mr. Mont-
gomery, of rKentucky. According to
the census of 1890, Indiana contains
12,354 manufacturing establishments,
with an aggregate capital of $132,405,-
366; an annual output amounting in
value to $226,825,082; employing 124,349
persons and paying, them annually in
wages $51,749,976. Tennessee, the state
represented by Senator Harris and Mr.
McMillin, contains 4,559 manufacturing
establishments, with an aggregate capi-
tal of $51,475,092, employing 42,759
persons, paying them $16,899,351 annu-
ally in wages, and producing goods to
the value of $72, 355, 286. Missouri, the
state represented by Senator Vest, con-
tains 14,045 manufacturing establish-
ments, with a combined ' capital of
$189,236,422, employing 142,924 persons,
paying. them in wages annually $76,-
327,907, andcreating an annual output
amounting in value to $323,987,688.
Arkansas, the state represented by Sen.
ator Jones, contains 2,073 manufactur-
ing establishments, whose combined
capital amounts to $14,971,614; employ-
ing 15,972 persons, whose annual wages
amount to $5,749,888, and the annual:
product of. whose labor is $22,659,179.
West Virginia, the" state represented
by Mr. Wilson, contains 2,376 manufac-
turing establishments, with a combined
capital of $28,118,030; employes num-
bering 21,969, who receive wages to the
annual amount'of $8,330,997, and who
produce goods 'to the annual value of
$38,702,125 Georgia, the state repre-
sented by Mr. Turner, contains 4,285
establishments, in which $56,921,580 is
invested, where 56,383 people are em-
ployed at $17,312,196 annual wages, and
_ creating an annual product of $68,917,-
020. Kentucky, the state represented
by Mr. Montgomery, contains manu:
facturing establishments to the number
of 7,745 ; their capital amounts to 879,4
811,980; they employ 65,579 people who 1
* receivd-‘$27,761,746 annualiyin‘ Wages, ‘
and who turn outrgoods to the value of
$126,719,857. . _ .
Taking these seven States. together
‘ they are represented by 47,437'estab-
lishments with $552,940,084 of capital,
with 469,935 employes who receive
$202,132,061 annually in wages and turn
out a product of $880,165,237.
The manufacturing establishments in
the State of New York, which is not
represented on this committee, number
65,840. The value of their capital is
the tremendous sum of $1,130,‘161,195,
and of their output the even greater
sum of'31,71’1,577,671. The number of
their employes is 850,084 and the sum
paid annually in wages is $466,846,642.
In a word, the concern of the single
State of New York in the issue is twice ,,
as great as that of all the states repre-
'sented by the Democratic members of
this Conference Committee from both
Senate and House. As for manufac-
turing New England, the showmg is
still more startling in its disparity and
yet Senator Aldrich of Rhode Island
is not permitted to attend the meetings
of this Conference Committee, of which
he is appointed a member.

Strikers Wreak Vengeance.
A passenger train guarded by soldiers
and on its way to San Francisco was
wrecked two and a half miles west of
Sacramento, Wednesday night. Stri-
kers sawed the supports of the high
trestle at Battlesford and loosened the
rails to make sure of the destructionof
the train. .
Six soldiers went down With four cars
into the creek below and lost their lives.
Many were injured. Two soldiers were
on the locomotive. One was horribly
mangled and the other drowned by the
Weight of his cartridge belt.
The killed and wounded are members
of the regular army and their comrades
are incensed at the strikers. _
The engineer was also killed and
some of _ the passengers inJured. A
number of passengers and soldiers are
missing and it is believed that they have
gone to their death. - _
After the dastardly deed the strikers,
who it is almost certain made the tres-
tle unsafe, fired into the train.

John O’Mara’s Stomach. .
Chemist Wheeler of Bridgeport, will
make the chemical analysis of the re-
mains of the late John O’Mara of
Stamford, having been asked to do so
by Coroner Doten. I f the analysis was
expected to disclose anything in the
stomach in the nature of a poisonous
foreign substance it would be salts of
copper.
Coroner Doten, however, has come
to the conclusion that Mrs. O’Mara is
innocent, and that the analysis will dis-
close nothing. It will be some weeks
before the result will be known.
The insurance company which held a
policy upon the life of O’Mara refuses
to pay the mone until the question of
what caused his eath is determined.

Monahan—Nordaby Mlll “Off.”
:The. fight between “Dutch” Mona-

this city has been mutually-5‘ declared
off.” It seems that notWithstanding
the large number of sports who paid
sums ranging from 32 down to twenty-
five cents to board a boat at Waterside
a short time ago expecting to see the
mill, there was only $45 in the purse,
and this meagre amount the .sluggers
thought it would be undignified for
them to battle for. They were perfect-
ly satisfied, however, to divide the
purse, each principal taking half the
amount. This pleased the Norwalk
man so well that he spent his share in
getting gloriously full. As for those
who are still holding tickets With the
expectation of seeing a fight, they Will
very readily perceive that they have
been swindled.——Stamford Advocate.

THE DAY IN CONGRESS.
Senator Daniel’s Arbitration Resolution
“’85 Adopted \Vitliout Division.
WASHINGTON, July 12,—Wlien the sen-
ate met today, Chaplain Milburn invoked
the divine assistance in the offer-t to sup-
press lawlessness and restore peace and
'order throughout the country.
After the transnci’on of some routine
business Mr. Daniel asked that the senate
proceed to the consideration of the resolu-
tion offered by him yesterday, and the
resolution of Senator Pefi‘er, together with
Serum . Daniel’s. which was ofiered as a
substitute, was read, and Mr. Daniel pro-
posed-n. second clause, which declared the
adherence of the senate to the principles
of arbitration.
This second clause was proposed after
consultation with his colleagues, both
Democratic and Republican, Mr. Daniel

to the consideration of the resolution was
not based on any opposition to the resolu-

SACRAMENTO, July 12.——At the request
of the mediation committee ex-Attorney
General Hart has written a lengthy opin-
lon defining the rights and responsibilities
of the strikers and informing them that
to resist troops is treason. The oplnlon
says in part:' - .
‘ “It cannot be denied that resistance to
the law and the authOrlty of the United
States would be treason against the gov-
ernment, which would not receive the sup-
port of the large majority of citizens who
sympathize with your cause. I advise you
not to permit yourselves in these times
of danger to attempt disorder and devotion
to your cause to entangle you in a conflict
with the armies of the federal government.
“I hope that the excitement of the hour
may not induce any of the men who are
now banded. together in labor organiza-
may under any circumstances be de-
nounced as criminal.”
Harry K1162, chairman of the committee
on mediation, {said that the strikers would
abide by the opinion of their attorney by
making no resistance to the troops» Yes-
terday afternoon and evening there was
every indication that the federal troops
would not go to Sacramento without a
ready, and their picked fighters were in
possession. They had a cannon and were
loud in their determination not to let the
levee Were strung men with rifles, appar-
ently sharpshooter-s to rake the soldiery as
the boat passed. The strike leaders were
reticent and anxious. Early this morning
all this changed.,;, The ..strlke'_leaders have
gone home to bed, there are only a few of
the strikers on guard in the depot, and
the men generally say the [regulars will
not be opposed unless they try to move
Pullman cars, when they will be treated
roughly. Before going home the leaders
of the strike spoke freely, pleasantly and
peaceably. The whole atmosphere had-
changed, and those who had expected to
see Sacramento in flames this morning.
with miscellaneous disaster all along the
railroad, went to their homes without mis-
givings. '
Sacramento is, of course. under martial
law, though thus far it has not altered
things in any way. The printed notices
that were posted in public places and dis-
tributed - on the streets got to be an old
ltory in a few minutes. Nobody knew
exactly what was implied by the phrase
“martial law,” and the crowds did not
disperse. '
Regulars Arrive.
The regular troops reached here this
morning. In anticipation of an attack by
the strikers GeneralSheehan, who is in
command-of the militia here, issued orders
to. his subordinates last night to. have the
state troops in readiness to march to the
water front this morning. Shortly after 6
, o’clock the militia marched to the lower
part of the city, and lines were drawn and
guards stationed to prevent any one from
interfering with the regulars.
After 6‘ o’clock the steamers Alameda
and Acme, with regulars aboard, came to
the landing. After being breakfasted
General Graham ordered the regulars to
disembark. They then marched to the
depot and took possession. The strikers
had already abandoned the situation, and
no attempt was made to interfere with the
troops. It is believed that the regulars
will meet with no opposition when trains
are moved.
A number of strikers who were am-
bushed on the Yolo county slde'of the riv-
er fired into the militia after the regulars
had gone to the depot. The militia re-
sponded, and over 200 shots were ex-
changed. Oiic striker was wounded.
San Jose Blockade Raised.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 12. -‘—No troops
were landed in Oakland, and there noth-
lng occurred to breakgthe peace which has
prevailed for several days. The railroad
, company put water in two switch engines
on the Mole and prepared them for work,
but did not attempt to get steam. One
engine at the narrow gauge roundhouse
at Alameda Point was fired up, but did
not work. The scouts of the strikers kept
tlons, but made no effort to interfere with
them. ‘
Trains on the coast division are started
again, the San Jose blockade having been
raised. Five trains came in and seven
were sent out. ~
Chief Crowley has issued an order de-
claring that no more outdoor public meet-
lugs shall be held while the present touchy
feeling prevails. There have been no local
disturbances, but the police details in the
populous districts have been more than
trebled. -
Interviews with the heads of some of
the principal labor organizations indicate
that they would go out if- a sympathy
strike were ordered by the Knights of La-
bor and American Federation.
Engineers Kick Against Guards.
BENSON, A. T.,‘July 12.—The Twenty-
fourth infantry, under orders from Wash-
ington to proceed from Fort Hunchua to
Santa Fe to aid in suppression of the
strike, boarded a train of the Guayamas
branch of the Santa Fe road at Huachua
station. The engineer and fireman cutoff
their engine and came to Benson, leaving
the train standing at Huachua. .Master
Mechanic Forsyth took charge of the loco-
motive, returned to Huachua and brought
ln‘- the train, four hours late. The train
was tied up here, as engineers refused to
.haul it with guards on the locomotive.
Captain Thompson, in command. has or-
icrs from General McCook at Denver not
to move without guard. The situation
may precipitate a strike on the Southern
Pacific lines in Arizona. ' '
The First Unlawful Act.
_ Les ANGELES, July 12.—Thc first un-
lawful act- that has been committed by
strikers in this city since the day the"boy-
cott was declared here was perpetrated
