T1IE GREAT STRIKE.
NO CHANGE IN THE LABOR LOCK ANYWHERE
ALONG THE LINE.
Still Killing Engines' and Stopping TrainsThe
AntiBoycott in Kentucky—Organizing
to Fight Organized Labor.
IN GENERAL.
Louisville, Ky., March 23.—The
Thompson act, known as the antiboycottnig
bill, now pending before the legislature,
is creating a great stir among
the members of the labor unions and
workingmen generally. The fact that
petitions have been circulated favoring
the bill has stirred up the Knights of
Labor and members of the Trades Assembly
to circulate petitions in opposition
to it. Today a large number of
petitions were placed in circulation by
the workingmen and received thousands
of signatures. Workingmen pretty generally
condemn the proposed legislation
as an infringement on what they claim as
their natural rights.
The Thompson bill, in brief, provides
that any persons conspiring together to
injure or obstructor impede any person,
firm or corporation in the lawful transaction
of its business, shall be liable to a
fine of from $200 to $500 and imprisonment
of from three months to one year;
and it further provides that in the event
of a person, firm or company meeting
with direct injury or pecuniary loss from
such “conspiracy,” the conspirators shall
be imprisoned from one to three years in
the penitentiary.
Kansas City, Mo., March 23.—There
is no change in the situation at railway
yards this morning. The 200 switchmen
are still out; no freight is moving but
there has been no disturbance of any
kind.
Kansas City, March 23.—The situation
this morning is one of quiet but
anxious expectancy. No freight trains
have been moved and there have been
no attempts to start them. Passenger
trains are not interfered with. The railroad
superintendents of various lines have
arrived, and will hold a meeting this afternoon.
The strikers are also engaged
in secret counciling. Grandmaster Monaghan
of the Switchmen’s association is
is here in conference with them.
A report from Atchison says a party of
masked men visited the Missouri Pacific
roundhouse last night, intimidated the
guard, and killed all engines in the
house.
Chicago, March 23.—The fact will be
published here tomorrow that a movement
is on foot and letters are being sent
out jointly to arrange for a national
meeting of business men and manufacturers,
to be held sometime next month,
to take action toward devising some
means towards defense against the power
of organized labor. There is nothing
definite arranged about the proposed
meeting, but the opinion of business men
is being asked in confidential circulars,
which speak of outrageous demands now
being made by workingmen and suggest
action to meet those demands and put
employers in position to withstand them.
Longview, March 22.—Excitement
was created this afternoon over the reception
of an order from Marshall for
United States Deputy Marshal Pegues to
bring twelve men with Winchesters.
Marshal Pegues left with the men on the
9;30 p. m. train. No one here knows why
they were ordered, but the supposition is
that they are needed to cover more
ground in watching property than the
present force can.
ST. LOUIS, March 23.—The situation
in the city so far as traffic on the Missouri
Pacific railway is concerned remains
unchanged. Through passenger
and accommodation trains left and arrived
on time this morning, but no freight
trains have as yet been moved. It is reported,
however, that at some time during
the day an attempt will be made to
start out a freight under the protection of
the law.
St. Louis, March 23.—The Missouri
Pacific railway officials today attempted
to start out a freight train from the yards
in this city, but without success. Several
attempts were made to get the train from
the yards, but the strikers separated the
train by pulling out coupling pins, and
otherwise interfered. Large numbers of
police and detectives were present, but
they were powerless to hinder the strikers
from carrying out their intentions.
New Orleans, March 23.—One memher
of the Knights of Labor, who went to
Marshall, Texas, from Gouldsboro, returned
and said that the report that
Hall’s case will be referred to the courts
is revived.
BOSTON, March.—A rumor has
been current in labor circles here that a
new order resembling that of the Knights
of Labor and to be called the Knights of
Industry was in course of formation. Inquiry
showed the report to be well
founded. A number of meetings have
been held, correspondence has been
opened with labor leaders, and a pi;eamble
and declaration of principles have
been provisionally adopted. The order
will embrace hard and trained workers
throughout the country, arid will work
on the same general lines as the Knights
of Labor. Strikes, however, will be discouragcd
and arbitration advocated by
this new order.
Denison, March 23.—The railroad
company has had all the engines in the
round house, whether in order or not,
some forty odd in number, run out into
the yards as a precaution, it is thought,
against fire, should one occur. The yard
and shops are heavily guarded tonight
by the sheriff and special railroad guards.
Seven more of Sheriff Douglass’ deputies
arrived this afternoon and marched up
Main street to the Colonade hotel with
their Winchesters in their hands, causing
some excitement at the time.
Little Rock, March 23.—This morn"
ing a delegation of citizens from Guerdon,
Clark county, on the Iron Mountain
road, waited on Governor Hughes to obtain
permission to run freight trains betw&
en that station and Little Rock. The
county is sufferingfor supplies and great
distress is imminent. They declare they
will run and protect trains if given an opportunity,
regardless of all opposition.
It is understood that if permission is obtained,
a train will be furnished by the
managers of the road.
the hig creek cow thieves.
Some ot the Hides of Stolen Cattle Found in
V/zco—After the Thieves.
THU Day of Monday contained an account
of the action taken by the Central
Texas Live Stock association in reference
to the heavy depredations made by
thieves in the vicinity of the head of Big
Creek, in Limestone county, near what is
generally called the “Big Thicket,” upon
cattle belonging to members of the association.
A committee from the association
was appointed to investigate the matter
and procure the aid of officers and legal
advice in the detection and prosecution
of these wholesale cow thieves. Three
men are already under arrest. A letter
from Sheriff Love,of Limestone county,addressed
to City Marshal Luke Moore,
was transferred to Deputy Sheriff Bob
Ross, who started out yesterday to hunt
up hides in certain brands named in the
letter. As a result of his search he had
soon discovered thirtyfive hides in the
brands described; twentythree of them
on wagons at the elevator and twelve in
East Waco. He reported his discoveries
to Mr. Moore, who has advised the Limestone
authorities. The officers of this,
Limestone, Hill and adjoining counties
are thoroughly awakened on this matter
and will lend the association every assistance
in ferretting out the thieves. It
will not be long before they are either
“rounded up” or stampeded out of their
present range.
, “Just Like a Woman.”
Postmistress Thomson, of Louisville, Ky,
is an applicant for reappointment. She is
the lady who though Tilden would be
declared elected,and got up a monster petition
and addressed it to “President Tilden.”
A little while afterwards the Electoral Commission
declared in favor of Hayes. Mrs.
Thomson without a momen’s hesitancy
struck out the word “Tilden” at the head of
the petition and inserted the word “Hayes.”
Hayes laughed heartily when told of what
Mrs. Thomson had done, and after saying
that “ that it was just like a woman,” he
declared that he would appoint her, and he
did.

A Card From the First Ward.
To the Editor of The Day :
I hope the people of the First ward
wilt do themselves the credit of reelecting
Alderman Alexander. He has made
us a good and faithful servant. He is an
honest man, and needs no bricking up
by such a convention as was held at the
city hall last Saturday night. I do hope
tire citizens and taxpayers will not for
one moment be influenced to vote against
Mr. Alexander and for the nominee of
that socalled convention. Alderman
Alexander is known to the people of the
ward, is a taxpayer, and we need no
pledges from him—we know he will do
what is right. First Warder.
Waco, March 24.
—A responsible man is wanted to
take the agency for Yellowstone Kit’s
Indian Pad and Medicines. Must have
five hundred dollars and the very
best of reference. Call at 118 west side
Square, from 10 a. m. to 12 m.
Inspecting the New Gutters,
The street committee of the city
corincil, in company with the mayor,
the city engineer and the contractors are
engaged this afternoon in inspecting and
testing the new curbing and guttering
laid on Austin street between Third and
Eighth streets, preparatory to submitting
to the city council a report as to whether
the contract has been complied with by
the contractors. The street has been
flooded with water from the fire hydrants
in order to determine whether the grade
of the guttering is sufficient to carry it
off. The test so far has bees, in the
main, highly satisfactory’.
State and County Taxes.
Some people seem to have an idea that
the action of the legislature last year, in
reference to the payment of state and
county taxes, will secure them similar
indulgence this year. They are mistaken.
Collector David has given all and a littie
more indulgence than the law docs,
and after April 1st hepvill begin to charge
costs on all unpaid assessments. It is
best to pay up now and save costs.
Prof. Pharazyn. ^
This finished magician opens the
Black Book at the McClelland tomorrow
night, and judging from our exchanges,
he is without a peer in his peculiar line.
His wonderful basket mystery and great
fish trick are alone sufficient to give him
a worldwide reputation. Every man
woman and child should go and see him
while he is here.

A Lively Case in the City Court—Its Sequel in tie
Justice’s CourtOther Court News.
BEFORE THE RECORDER.
Meinherr Rosenfeldt and his frau are
not strangers to the docket of Recorder
BrinkerhofPs tribunal and when they
marched in this morning it was with an
air of knowing “what they were there for.”
S. B. Mims, a onearmed man and a runner
for the Missouri Pacific Hotel, opposite
the Missouri Pacific depot, was
charged with using unusual and offensive
language toward Mrs. Rosenfeldt,
calculated to provoke a breach of the
peace. He demanded a jury and, by his
counsel plead not guilty. The testimony
of the prosecuting witnesses was rather
rich and Rosenfeldt showed a pretty
good knowledge of the vocabulary of
billingsgate, while he only keptsilentand
stared blankly when the lawyer addressed
him in refined language. The defendant
had a number of witnesses to testify
to his good character and to the fact
that though violently abused and kicked
by the Rosenfeldt woman, he had gallantly
refrained from returning a blow.
After the arguments of the counsel on
both sides, the case was given to the
jury who, did not take long to declare
Mims “not guilty.”
AT THE JUSTICES’.
Tom Cunningham, a barkeeper, was
arrested this morning upon an indictment
for selling liquor on Sunday, and
taken before Justice R. W. Davis, who
set the trial of his case for Saturday next.
John Blum plead guilty to a like charge
before the same officer, and was fined
$20 and costs. The case of the State of
Texas vs. Mrs. Rosenfeldt, charged with
an assault and battery upon S. R. Mims,
next engaged the attention of the court.
In this case the same parties figured as
in the case reported from the recorder's
court, but with defendant and prosecutor
reversed.
The same witnesses, except Mrs. R.
were present, but the defendant pleaded
guilty and stopped the trial. She was
fined $5 and cost. Next came the case
of A. S. O’Neil charged with assault and
battery on the affidavit of C. F. Blanks,
who also made application to have O’Neil
put under a bond to keep the peace.
Upon hearing the evidence the court
fined Mr. O’Neil $5 for the assault but dedined
to place him under a peace bond.
Josie Tumlin, a colored woman, for assault
and battery, is now on trial.
Justice \V. M. Sleeper issued warrants
for the arrest of two Sunday liquor sellers
this morning.
In the district court the case of Dixon
vs. Hall was concluded and went to the
jury at noon. No verdict has yet been
received.
