tbo names of over 1700 colored peoplo
nro stricken from tbo rolls of citizen

thnt tho notion of tho Iudinu Council,
after tbo piissngo of tho emancipation

ing colored peoplo to tribnl relations
was unconstitutional, nnd thorcforo nt

tho transactions of which it is tho oc

fore, that the Cznr chose Nijui for tho
location of tho grand exposition. But
there is yot another reason. Nijni was
the cradlo of Russian independence.
It was there that the first Romnnoff

Michael, founder of tho imperial dy

the city is about 73,000, but during

There are in Europe, says tbo West

England, Frauce, Germany, Russia

bates Franoe because they are rivals
for the supremacy of the world ; Eng

irritated by her presumption and her
trado competition; England hates
Russia because of the distant East;
England hates Austria because she is
sot England. France hatos England
beoause it has been the duty of Eng
land to pnt a period to the glory of
all her great mouarohs; France
sates Germany with a raoial hate;
Prance hates Russia because the two
peoples are so essentially made to
disagree; Franco hates Austria be

'llin I'ope Manufacturing Compnny, thn
(lurrnulley A Jeffrey Company, ami other
leading maker of lilgh-elnss bicycle, hnvn
been at work for some time trying to dovlso
a scheme by which thn Influence of cheap
bicycles could be checked. Their efforts
were nsslsted by other manufacturers and
the movement culminated during tho week
at a meeting held in thn Hotel Waldorf,
Now York. What wns supposed to bo a
molding of wrought Iron pipe manufacturers
wn really a meeting of tho manufacturer
of blcyelo tubing. There wero repres"nta
tlve present from each of the Ji firms manu

The bleyrde manufacturers nnd tube manu

of tubing, so that while tho innnufu"turers
sold mu'-h more tubing from tbo combined
demand for material, tbo results were mu"h
less satisfactory from a business standpoint
than without tho numerous shops where the
cheap mnchliies wero made.
'1 hero nre two branches fJf blcyelo mnkers.
Tho one makes most of tbo parts, except tho
tubing, completing their own machine.
There are other known as "assemblers,''
who buy chain nt one ida.-n, sprocket lit
another, handle bnrs nnd saddles from an
other, etc., put the parts all together, nnd
place thn wheel on tho market with no name
jdnto on them. Tho stock Is bought by Job
bers, auctioneers, drygoods houses. Jewelers
nnd otners. It Is tlieso wheels that have cut
Into tho price.
Tho object of tbo new organization Is to
knock out the assemblers, so that they will
be forced out of competition with tho con
cerns who can make most of their own parts.
With this object In view, tho moneyed men
In the business hnvo for some time past been
buying stock In nil tho tubing plants until
they have absolute control of tho majority of

lieve the only way to suppress the desperatn
characters of tho miners' union is through
martial law and martial courts.

ofllcer full power to net ns bis representative

Gen. llrook is specifically Instructed to per
mit no Interference from nny source what
ever, and to net with or without tbo co-operation
of thn local authorities as ho may deem
wise. This gives the military all thn Instruc
tions they need, und practically places the
camp under martial law, so fur as Is required
to comtiol the sheriff to do his duty.
