The Philadelphia Bulletin remarks:
Mr. Gould is undoubtedly a very un
popular man. He is not generally
regarded as one of the world's great
benefactors. He is more than sus
pected of making much of his money
ty methods that will not stand any
close scrutiny. But when Gould is
depicted as a wicked boycotter, go
ing round to grocers and ordering
them not to give credit to working
men, just as workingmen go round
to grocers and order them not to sell
to or for manufacturers who are un
der their ban, the thing becomes just
a little too utterly inconsistent But
there is an old story about a man
who didn't know whether it was his
'ox or his neighbor's that bad been
gored, and got dreadfully confused
about it. Matthew 6eems to be in
that condition on the subject of boy
cotting.
Polygamous women of Utah have
Bent a large petition to the Washing
ton government as a complaint
against government officers for break
ing into their houses and private ap
artments at night, under an excuse
that they are in search of evidence
that they are living with men in vio
lation of the laws of the United
States of America. The Abrahamic
and Solomonic system of having as
many women as they can keep, may
not be in accord with the modern no
tions of good society but the case is
mnf. anoh a desDerate one that it
should cause the government to al
low its officers to break into people's
houses in the dead of night to find
t hnur mn-nv wives a man has to
" J - -
sleeD with. There must be some
thing seriously the matter with the
i,n.fv and interritv of ?overnment
officers in Utah, when they resort to
such methods to extinguish Mormon
ism. This great government certain
ly can extinguish " Mormonism with
out resorting to such small methods.
The Knights of Labor may be a
strong organization, and if united
might move mountains, but they
might with profit 6top long enough
in their carreer, to consider the ever
present fact, that whenever a Knight
steps out of a job there are a half
dozen other men ready to 6tep into
the empty place. It will ever be so
unless the Knights can get rid of the
surplus people. The surplus is not
only too large among men who work
with their hands, but it exists in all
of the walks of life. There are too
many lawyers, where one drops out
a half dozen scramble for the place,
so with editors and doctors. There
are too many preachers. The same
may be 6aid of business men, there
are too many storekeepers, but no
one cla68 of the people mentioned
have been guilty of the supreme folly
of trying by force to keep others
from occupying part of the field that
they occupy. The lawyers may be
clanish and do their best to keep new
men from coming in to share the
picking of clients, and business may
organize boards of trade and combine
as best they can to control prices.
but they have never conspired to
override by force all opposition and
when some of them are bv tus force
the circumstance of too much bus
iness for too few customers forced to
the wall under the sheriff's hammer.
they do not threaten violence, ven
geance, and bloodshed against other
people who flourish in business pla-
r. Such are the hard cold facts of
every day life, and if the Knights of
Labor will stop to reflect on them,
they can readily understand why the
civilized world has turned tho cold
shoulder upon their violent demon
strations. A Bloodthirsty Circular.
The misguided men who have been
engaged in the strike on Western
railroads, and who refused to allow
other men to work in the places that
they not long since vacated with
contempt, have been compelled by
tne power of the law to recognize
the rights of other men to engage at
the work that they rejected. The
miscarriage of their tyranous scheme
to keep other men from work having
failed, they breathe threatenings of
which the following is a sample:
Lawrence, Kan., April t. In Ot
tawa and this city circulars were
yesterday distributed on the streets.
They were printed in red, with a
wide red border, and were headed
"A Mere Question of Blood." They'
read as follows : "To parents, guar-'
ilmns and teachers. You have sent
your sous, wards and pupils equip
ped with the implements of mutila
tion and murder to coerce, drive,
mangle and kill a body of workers
who are struggling with a giant foe
against a monster oppression.

For
months and months together have
these brave employes borne with re
duction of wages, violation of com
pact, sleepless nights, irregular hours
and a dog's existence without coin-
plaint, and when, by standing togeth
er with noble brotherly fidelity, they
have reached a position to command
peacebly that recognition of their
lghts which the law s delay would
never vouchsafe, you send your 60ns,
in the name of 'Christian civilization,'
bearing in their hands weapons of
murder to see that justice is subvert
ed and wrong maintained. Now,
yoa Christian fathers and mothers,
if you have trained up .your boys for
the religious task of slaughtering
their fellows, you have only fattened
their frail forms to feed maggots,
and it will be a matter of economy
to purchase their coffins and hire
their masses in the 6lack of the mar

This matter has been frequently hint

this is a free country, it is a free
country for all, and just so surely as

kers, just 60 surelv will strikers
slaughter your boys. Have not your

Strikers Killed.
During the early part of last week
strikers in railroad yards at St Louis,
Mo-, repeatedly drove the new wort
men from their places, as a last re
sort aerainst the violence of the strik
eis, men were armed and instructed
to 6hoot the invaders when they of
fered to drive the workmen away.
The following despatch on Friday
tells how the order was executed :
St. Louis, April 9, 3 P. M. A
crowd of strikers formed at the re-
la r depot, in East St Louis, at 1.45
o'clock this afternoon, and advanced
in the direction of the railroad yards
to stop work bv the new men em
ployed there.
Thev were met by a guard of dep
uties, who ordered them to disperse.
The mob refused and made a rush
for the yards, when the deputies lev
eled their Winchesters and fired.

A wife of a striker was fatally
wounded.
PARTICULARS.
"The trouble began just before
dinner," said F. G. Hewlett a special
officer of the Louisville and ash
ville. "when two of the Deputies
were struck with stones thrown by
people in the crowd. When I learn
ed of the trouble I went to the spot
and found the Sheriff attempting to
disperse the crowd. They cursed
and hooted him and he left I then
talked to them, telling them they
were violating the law. I read sec
tions of the law to them in regard
to a refusal to disperse when order
ed to and in regard to throwing
stones. Some said that I was right
and left but others cursed me, I no
ticed that some of them had been
drinking. I left and a couple of
hours later the agent of the road
told me that a crowd of men were
congregated about a coal train and
that Deputies would be needed to
take it out Getting all the men I
could together, nine of us, we went
up to the train. There were fully
three hundred people congregated
there, two hundred on one side and
one hundred on the other. We were
in the Louisville and Nashville yards
and they at the Market street cross
ing. We ran the train through all
right but after we got it through the
trouble began. A fellow called out
to Sam Jones: 'Here is one of the
Deputies. Kill the red
headed . We don't allow
v6vl to live to get out of town.'
arrested the man. and ordered the
crowd to disperse. Stones were then
thrown and one came by my should
er"
Here Hewlett asked the other Dep
uties how many of them had been
hit. Deputy Jones said that he had
twice been hit with stones. Deputy
Luster said that he had been hit
twice and that Charles Farnhatn, a
switchman, had been hit twice. Hew
lett then concluded :
"Two police officers tried to pre
vent ns from arresting our man and
more stones were thrown, and then
the firing began. I think we fired
first Shots were fired at us also
from a car and from a house. I
think all our shots took effect One
man who turew the hrst rock was
shot down."
"They cried: 'Kill the cowboy!,
meaning me, interrupted Deputy
bheriu Kensler, "and as I saw a fel
low drawing a revolver I shot him."
After the shooting," continued
Hewlett "we made for the bridge,
not from fear, but because we did
not want to kill any more people.
We were stopped ou the bridge by
Mayor Joyce, who was quite drunk
and wanted us to go back with him.
This we refused to do, because he
could not give us protection. He
attempted to take us and gave his
revolver to a fellow who opened fire
ou us. The man fired several shots
at us and some of our party fired
bsek."
How many of you fired in the first
shooting?"
"All of us," was the reply, and all
of the nine men in the party added
that they had all fired. No one knew
who lired first.
When the smoke cleared away.
Pat Driscoll, Oscar Washington and
John Bonner, none of them strikers,
were found lying on Cahokia bridge.
Driscoll and Washington were dead.
Bonner showed signs-of life, but he
died iu a switch house near by. A
few moments later Major Richman
was shot in the head and shoulder
f.nd will probably die. Mrs. John
Pfeiffer was shot iu the back and is
; also mortally wounded. Both were
also found on the bridge.
Mrs. Pfeiffer was carried by her
husband to a drug store on Broad
way, near the crossing. He cried to
her as li9 staggered along with her
bleeding body in his arms : "Don't
die," in pitiful accents.
Major Richman was taken to the
Green Tree Hotel aud a number of
physicians were soon ou the scene
attending to the wounded.
When the crowd was running up
the streets, away from the shooting,
excited members shouted : "To arms,
to arms : we will get guns and return
that fire." Women and children ran
out of houses and met them on
streets, weepiug and wringing their
hands. After the crowd had return
ed to the scene and the excitement
had somewhat abated, several lead
inr men of the strikers while stand
ing over the bodies of Washington
and Driscoll drew their pistols and
swore to avenge their deaths even at
the sacrifice of their own lives. The
crowd began immediately to procure
arms.
From the scene at Cahokia creek
the Deputies, panic stricken, rushed
for the bridge, with a view of escap
ing to this city. At the approach aud
just at the bridge tower on the east
side tne Deputies who had done the
shooting, with some six or seven oth
ers, were met by Mayor Joyce, City
Clerk Cartv and a third man, who
seized the Deputies' guns andendeav
ored to turn them back. One of the
Deputies iu his terror fired upon the
trio, killing a man named Thompson,
who stood between Joyce and Carty.
Some shots were fired by the remain
ing Deputies at the approaching strik
ers and all started over tho bridge on
a dead run.
The scene on the bridge was one of
the wildest confusion and excitement.
Coal teams loaded and other teams
with wagons were galloping "west
ward and shouting to all pedestrians
and teamsters to turn back. Women
and men on foot were running toward
the city and warning back all they
met, while immediately behind came
the Deputies, pursued by the van
guard of the crowd from Last at
Louis. One of the frightened guards
threw his gun into the river, while
another bid his weapon in the load
of a hay wagon that was in full re
treat
An eye witness !o the original shoot
ing was in the retreating party. He
characterized the shooting into the
crowd as wanton and unwarranted.
The crowd had been "guying" one of
the Deputies, when he lost his temper
and fired.
Soon after Police Captain Her
cules, with a squad of police, took
charge of the western end of the
bridge and gave notice that he would
arrest any one coming into the city.
The man killed on the bridge was C
E. Thompson, who resides at 4021
California avenue, St. Louis. His
body was taken into the tower and
afterwards put on a stretcher and
brought to his home on this side.
The deputies who did the shooting,
accompanied by four others, went to
the lbird district police station on
their arrival on this side and were
sent by the sergeant in charge, to
whom they surrendered themselves,
in the patrol wagon to the Four
Courts. There Sergeant Schmitgens
took them into custody and took their
rifles from them, regularly searched
them and placed them in the hold ov
er.
James It. McKenstry, a Deputy
Sheriff, and two other deputies of the
T ' ! v . ...
uouisvme and JNa&nville Railroad
were walking toward the round-bouse
just after dark when Beveral hundred
strikers started after them. The
three fled and were fired upon. Mo
Kens try was wounded in the leg and
the two others left him. He tried to
limp away, but the crowd overtook
and beat him with clubs and stones
about the head and face until they
supposed he was dead, when they rob
bed him of 200 and bis cold watch
and chain. From this dastardly scene
the mob charged on several hardware
stores and took possession of all guns
revolvers and ammunition they con
tained, f rom there they went to
the only pawnbroker's place and ran'
sacked his shop as they had the hard
ware establishments. Armed with
these weapons of war they gathered
at the City Hall, where they held an
indignation meeting, waved their ri
fles in the nr and called upon others
to come on. They swore eternal veu
geance on those who did the shoot
ing. A few advised the mob to go
slow, but the opinion seemed to prevail
that the armed mob will raid the
property of the Louisville and Nash
ville Road before the night is oat It
is said to-night that in the encounter
on the bridge three men were seen to
topple into the river.
A GAXBLEB LEADS THE MOB.
At the City Hall a man named
D wyer, a gambler, and iu no way
connected with tbe strike, became the
centre of a crowd who loudly cheer
ed the incendiary statements which
he uttered. Ha urged to ''hang and
kill" aud was in the midst of an ap
peal to the mob to follow him to the
Ohio aud Mississippi depot to hunt
for deputy sheriffs, when John W.
Hays, a member of the general execu
tive committee of Knights of Labor,
Martin O'Neill and Knight of Labor
Brown arrived upon the scene from
this side.
AN APPEAL FOB LAW AND ORDER.
Brown began au impassioned ap
peal for quiet, law and order, and by
the sheer force of his earnestness riv
eted the attention of the crowd, but
only for a few moments at a time, for
they would break away fro-n the spell
of his eloquence and take up their
revolutionary yells. He said :
Men and brothers, for God s sake
keep quiet ; I implore you, iu the
name of humanity ; in the name of
the great order of the Knights of La
bor ; in the name of every law, both
of the Order and your country, re
strain yourselves and do no violence.
Remember that you are sworn broth
ers : do not forget that you are
Knights and that you are pledged
to obey the laws of the Order and
the commind3 of your committee
men." At this point Dwyer broke in:
Yes, whv don't you talk for Jav
Gould and be done with it 1 They
shot our men down in cold blood and
you ask us to be quiet I say hang
them, hang them.
The crowd took up tho words, cry
ing "Burn, kill and shoot !"
Browu pointed his finger atDwver
and asked him. "Are vou a Knightof
Libor !'
Dwyer dodged the question and
yelled out "Kill the brutes !"
Are you a Knight of Labor, I
ask " said Brown.
No, answered Diyor, "but I'm
with them on everything, you can
bet"
1 knew that von were not a
Knight,'' said Brown. "I knew that
no Knight would talk as you do.
Again, brothers, I appeal to you ; be
calm and disperse to your homes. If
you will not obey our laws remem
ber that yon are foresworn ; that you
are no longer Anights of .Labor.
Brothers I beg of you do nothing
rash. What oli what will the Knights
of the country think of you f Oh,
what will the whole world think of
our great ordnr ? Don't forget how
hard we worked to build up our or
ganization. Oh, dn not tear it down
in ruins by one rash act All men
who incite yon to strife are not true
Knights of Labor. They are worse
than the detectives of the railroads
who ars tryiug to hunt you down.
Shun them, shun them a you would
a murderer."

A Bloody Sock Trial.
At Laredo, Texas, last week the
Democratic party were triumphant
over a party known by the name of
Huarches. Ihe Democracy propos
ed to hold a mock funeral of their
political antagonists. The Huarches
forgot their manhood and proposed
to prevent the funeral. The effort
to stop the Democratic parade ld to
a riot which is related by despatch
as follows :
Galveston, Texas. April 8. A spec
ial to the News from Laredo says :
The intense excitement and lawless
ness which has prevailed here for the
past fortnight culminated last even
ing in a bloody riot The immediate
cause is attributed by many to a cir
cular which appeared yesterday morn
ing announcing thai. llx Democratic
party would hold fu:i-r.d services ot.
four o'clock in I he afternoon over the
party known here as "Huarches."
Directlv after the appearance of the
circular it was announced that the
Huarches" party would prevent bv
force any such demonstration. At
four o'elock tho streets leading to
the point from whence the Dfimocrat
ic procession was announced to start
were blockaded with armed men. j
For half au hour the suspense whs
intolerable. Then it w.ih announced
thatthere would be n effort to bury
the effigy of the defeated party.
This imd a pacific effect and the
crowd began to disperse. Suddenly
the music of the Democratic lunid
struck up and the proceession moved
out to aud down Main t-treet and
turned into the street leading to the
main plar.u When the head of tbe
column had readied the front of
Martin's 6 tore a party of men armed
with Winchesters and revolvers charg
ed the procession. Instantly over
one hundred men became engaged
in deadly conflict aud for half an
hour a regular battle raged along
the street near the river. During
the height of the conflict a nmnll can
non which had been used by the
"Huarches" party and which is said
to have been charged with nails and
stones, was fired down the street.
Bv 5 o'clock the mob spirit was su
preme and it was feared that the
women and children would be at the
mercy of tho rioters. At this criti
cal moment word was despatched to
Colonel Barnard, commandant at
Fort Mcintosh, that the heavy firing
ia the city was caused by an attack
bv Mexicans from the other side of
the Rio Grande. It took but a few
minutes to double quick two compau
ies of infantry into the town, before
whom the mob quickly dispersed,
and in a short time every armed man
on the street had his weapons takeu
away from him and order was restor
ed. The casualties, so far as known,
are five killed and three wounded.
All the killed were Mexicans except
one, a young Amencan named Brecfc
er. The wounded are Pancho Gar
cia, Mr. Poggenpohl is a prominent
citizen, and was wounded by a stray
bullet while standing in front ' of A.
Dickson's law office. Those who took
part in the Democratic procession
claim that they were fired into, and
only acted on the defensive. The
excitement last night was intense.
bnt it is thought that further blood
shed will be avoided.
A Cow Boy Evangelist.
The Western country has produced
a number oi tvaugehsts the past
year who are turning many men from
their evtl wavs. for several centur
ies after Christ the men who carried
the banner of the cross were not men
who were trained in the theological
schools of the old orthodox church,
and to-dav this country contains
number of men who are not licensed
by any school of Theolosry, who are
preaching with . great effect repent
ance and the life to come. A cow
boy, named, "Lampas Jake," is on
of tho now preachers in the west,
and from all accounts is doing agrea
deal of good. He was in Chicago
last week, and this is what the CM
cago Herald says of one of his meet
ing in that wicked city :
"Going into one of the hardest of
the numerous hard saloons 'in this
place the other night Jake mounted
a chair and commanded silence. The
games and drinking came to an end
and about twenty men, young and
old, looked up. Oue fellow under-
took to edge out but Jake stopped
him.
'"No, you don't mister," he said,
pointing his finger at him. 'No, you
don't When you get to hell you'll
have chances enough to come a sneak
on somebody, but you don't do- it
here. Then, straightening himself
up, he yelled in a voice that made
things creak :
"'How many of you's ready to die
now with your boots on ? Where'd

Working Miracles.
One of the British ofScrrs in Egypt,
who hapjH'neii to have a glass eye.
was one day examining a prisoner, a
zealous follower of the MabdL "Why
do you believe h the Mabdi ?" asked
the officer. "I b?lif"ve in him," re
plied tho man, "brwtuso ho can work
miracles." The oSalt immediately
took out his gl:iss -ye, tossed it up in
the air, caught it acl pnt it back in
its place. "D'ye think the Mahdi
could do th.it ?" he noked. The man
was appalled and couldn't say anoth
er word.
