It seems that some blooms senatorial

“A noticeable feature of the editorial
banquet,” says the Cincinnati Times-
Star, “was the large number of glasses
filied with wine which remained un-
touched. On inquiry it was invariably
found that these tilled glasses stood near
the plate of an editor who hailed from
some Southern state.—Sau Antonio
Light.
No wonder. When a Southern editor
takes a “snifter” he wants something that
will strike rock bottom, like a fat man
comiDg down on a scone sidewalk. If
they had only filled those glasses with
bourbon!
STRIKES AND STRIKERS DISTURB-

near Bristol, upon which they will es-

the care of the order of the Christian
Brothers. These young ladies inheri-
ted from their father nearly $4,000,000
each, and it is said under the terms of
the will their fortunes will revert to
Catholic charites unless one of them
should marry, when the whole fortune

The Knights of Labor held a meeting
yesterday, but. what plan of action was de-
cided upon is not known. It is rumored,
however, that it was decided to continue
the Mallory boycott,”and that steps would
he takeu to make it effectual. The strike
on the Gould system has not yet reached
this city, hut no freights are being sent out
for points north of Houston. It was rumor-
ed that there would be a general walk-out
of the cotton-compress employes at one
o’clock.this afternoon, but up to the hour
of going to press nothing of the kind had
occurred, and barring its effect on north-
bound freight, the boycott has no further
effect as yet upon Galveston than to create
affeelingof uneasiness. Whether the strike
on the Gould lines will extend to Gal-
veston or not no one Seems to know; and
while many express themselves as hope-
ful that there will not be any serious
trouble at this point, others are preparing
for the worst. A prominent Knight of
Labor stated to Evening Tbibun® rep-
resentative that there was no intention of
doing anything unlawful, but that they
were determined to carry their point, and
that if the boycot failed to prove an ef-
fectual weapon against thAMallory line,
there would be a general walk-out of the
Knights of Labor, not only of the rail-
road and cottou compress employes, but
of those in the employ of other in-
dustries as well. That the don’t
care-a-continental attitude of the busi-
ness men aod the frequent expression of
leading merchants that “the Knights of
Labor had bit off more than they could
chew,” had had anything but a saluta-
ry effect upon members of the order,
resulting in making them even more de-
termined to accomplish the end in view.
THROUGHOUT THE STATE.
Latest accounts of the situation through-
out the state are fraught with no startling
developments. Everything remains pret-
ty much as on Saturday. At Denison the
strikers held a secret session yesterday
afternoon, but it is not yet known what
course was iecided upon. Reports from
San Antonio are to the effect that no
trouble i.s anticipated at that point, while
at Big Springs everything is tied up snug
and no trains are moving. New men are
being put on at Bonham in phace of the
strikers, and are not molested by the
Knights of Labor. At Austin the Knights
held a secret meeting yesterday, and a
strike is among the probabilities, while at
Paris no freight trains are running, and
the strikers are prepared for along lock-
out.
AT FORT WORTH.
Special to Evening Tribune.
Fort Worth, March 8.—The solution
here remains unchanged. There is no in-
dication on either side of giving in. The
yardmaster received a dispatch this
morning ordering him to furnish engines
and caps for all schedule trains unless
otherwise ordered. A freight train was
to be sent north on the Missouri-Pacific
this morning, but while the engine was
standing in the yard five men boarded it
run it into the roundhouse and killed it
GOING INTO POLITICS.
Decatur, 111., 'March 8.—The action
of the Knights of Labor at Decatur inj
forming a new political party is attracting
much attention in this section. They
declare in their platform- “We have
formed a new national political party to
he known as the United Labor party of
America; for the purpose of organizing
and directing the great political power of
the. industrial masses as a political order,
and we will cast our ballots for no one
who will not pledge himself to stand
firmly by our principles.
THE SITUATION AT CHICAGO.
Chicago, 111., March 8.—A number of
business men representing the Seventh,
Eighth and Ninth wards of this city as-
sembled yesterday fer the pui po5e of or-
ganizing a mixed assembly of Knights of
Labor. The chairman said that at the re-
quest of a number of business men and
others who were sufferiug from the
results of poor compensation that labor
had received, it had been decided that
business men should make a common
cause with the laboring classes on whom
they relied for support by thoroughly
organizing and cooperating with the
working people in their different locali-
ties.
A';’ SPRINGFIELD, OHIO.
Springfield, ()., March 8-—The con.
flict between the Knights of Labor and
their la!e employers, the proprietors of
the East Street Reaper Works, promises
to he long continued. Wm. N. Whiteley,
who is at the head of the works says he
wants no employe who can not testify to
and sign the following:
£||“This is to certify that I have with- |
drawn from the Knights of Labor, or '
associations of like kind, and am no
longer under their dictation, having re-
stored myself to manhood and independ-
ence as a free American citizen.”
The men refused to sign this, and
everything now awaits the national arbi-
tration hoard of the Knights of Labor.
A Ship of Fir 3.
New York, March 8.—The Egyptian
Monarch, a large iron steamer was
burned at the dock this morning. Loss
$100,000, while the cargo was estimated
to be worth $250,000.
A Sad Accident.
Goldthwaite, Tex., March 8. —Mr.
Wayne Cosner, a reputable citizen of this
section, was thrown from his horse yes-
terday, and suffered the dislocation of
a hip joint. The patient is now doiug
well.
A Lively Glove Contest.
Hot Springs, Ark., March 8.—A
scientific glove contest was given last
evening at Central park, under the man-
agement of Boh Farrell, the well-known
New York boxer and sporting man. The
principal attraction was Wm. Bradburn,
of Chicago, champion middle-weight of
Illinois. Farrell offered $500 to any man
in the state to stand before Bradburn four
rouuds, which was accepted by Jack
Hanhy, oiK Atchison, Kan., now at the
City hotel. Hanby was nocked com-
pletely out at the beginning of the sec-
ond round. Bradburn and Farrell then
gave a scientific set-to, which was much
enjoyed by the crowd.
Wreaking- Vengeanca
Portland, Ore., March 8.—J. M.
Colemau and William Patton, prominent
citizens of Seattle, disappeared about a
month ago and were believed to have
been piurdered. The fact that Coleman
was foreman of the grand jury that in-
dicted those who were arrested on a
charge of being participants in the recent
riot at Seattle lent additional interest to
the affair. Yesterday the bodies of both
were found in Lake Washington, near
Seattle. There is every indication that
Coleman and Patton were first shot dead
•and their bodies then cast into the water.
The identity of the assassins is a. pro-
found mystery.
MANHATTAN LIFE INSURANCE
COMPANY.
Mr. Wm. L. Sondheim, general agent
for the state of Texas for the Manhattan
Life Insurance company of. New York
city will leave Galveston for New York
the latter part of the coming month.
During- the period of Mr. Sondheim’s
management he has succeeded iu placing
the Manhattan upon the top shelf of life
insurance companies in the Lone Star
State, and his record is one not only of
justifiable pride to himself but also to the
company he represents. Mr. Sondheim’s
departure is a source of universal regret
and was occasioned mainly by the pro-
posed trip of Mr. A. L. Grabfelder, the
general superintendent of agencies, who
will about May 5th sail for Europe. No
greater or more just compliment could he
paid to Mr. Sondheim than his selection
by the compauy to attend to many of Mr.
Grabfelder’s duties during his absence.
Mr. Sondheim has established in the
Island City a most commendable reputa
tion, and in leaving he has shown his
usual good business sagacity by the ap-
pointment of his brother, Mr. Otto Sond-
heim, as his successor. Mr. Otto Sond-
heim has for some little time filled the
position of agent for the Manhattan com-
pany at Dallas, and has had unprecedent-
ed success. It is believed that the good
results he has attained in Dallas will be
fully repeated in filling the position made
vacant by his brother, Mr. Win. L. Sond-
heim. Mr. S. W. Stipp, late of the Tre-
mont, of this city, will take Mr. Otto
Sondheim’s position at Dallas. This en-
tire arrangement of changis has been
made by Mr. Wm. L. Sondheim, and
gives further evidence of his good judg-
ment in leaving the affairs of the old re-
liable Manhattan in good hands during
his absence. While Mr. .Sondheim’s nec-
essary absence is regretted, he has the
universal good wishes of his many friends
who one and all say “Bon voyage, friend
Sondheim.” He will return ab><uc Sep-
tember 1st.
