Wamuxoto.v, December 1L Word has reached here that the vast cattle in terests of the West, representing an in vested capital of not less than 6c0,000, 000, are about to grapple in a death-lock Struggle with the Sugar Trust, and that the direction of the fighting is to be lodged with P. D. Armour, Nelson Mor ris and K. S. Swift, the Chicago kings of the meat trade. The United States is to be the battle ground, and unless the programme miscarries the encounter be tween these colossal interests will fur nish the crowning sensation of the short session of Congress. Free sugar is a ne cessity for Ihe free transportation of meat products to the great consuming riuai keUi of Europe. The imposition of a duty on sugar was promptly met by the raising of an em bat go against Amer ican beef by Germany ami Denmark, and the spirit of retaliation is lieing en couraged by other foreign nations with menacing heartiness. ' The merits of this question having been pretty thoroughly acceded, mention is only required in this connection to eni)liai.e the point that Germany has indicated clearly that she does not pro pose to recede Irom the position taken w iili legard to American meats until the difcriminaiion sgainnt the beet-sugar enterprises of lite German Empire is removed. German commercial intrigue is fanning the flame of hostility through out Europe toward American meats, and a renewal of the vindictive and general wariare agiinst the American meat products on the part of the old world nations is not only threatened, but felt to ho imminent. The American meat trade with foieign countries approxi mates tl5,000.(XK) a year, and anything that threatens its mighty business in a vital or impottaiit way instantly touches the pocket of one of the most powerful combinations in existence. The cattle raisers are in a state, of perpetual warfare wi.li the great pack ing combination, but when in the pres ence of a common enemy, a community of interests is at once formed and a united fiont presented. Theiefore, the cattle raisers, I he catile-kiders and the meat distributer are pooling their issues and preparing to remove the cause of ir ritation that is disturbing their estab lished trade. The duty on sugar being thai Citfe, they will lioni'mrd thn trust. Nelson Morri., who lias been ahroad for feveral inonthf, In ingn bai k the report that the prejudice against American mea.s can easily be removed by I lie re peal of the diKfriminatingduty on snsrar. Mr. Morrtii fumii-hef" more meat supplies to the armies of Europe than any half doxen contntclnrs in the world, and his relations with foreign governments are eonse-jiiently recognized as being suf licienily clo"t to give to his confidential com m tin icat ion on this snhject almost the stamp of official. He is in touch with the very heads of the European in spiration the money bags of all the principal nations of theold world. Mor ris has alo caused the word to be passed down the line that, ii the discriminating sugar tlutv is removed, lie lias authorita tive assurances that Ihe forms r harmony with American meat importers will be restored. The condition being thin squarely de fined, a line of action was soon agreed upon. Tbedetailsof thia campaign have not lieen fill y matured, but the general outlines have, subject, of course, lo mod ification. The purpose is to go against the Sugar Trust in ihe Senate at the first opportunity even at the risk of blocking alt kiinlti of legislation and forcing an extraordinary session. The theory upon which this p'oposition is based is that the meat interests are of mote impor tance than siicar, the Nicaraguan canal appropriation or anything ehe that can come up. and that Congress must pro tect them. In this fight the meat men feel that they command t lie aggressive support of the Senators from every West ern and Southern State, and will put up a combination that will be invincible. -s n all tfce tost aivanced trap and gate stiooters.

The most horrible buman butchery ever re corded in this section was committed five miles southwest of this city to-day. David G. Spragg in a fit of insanity mur dered liia wife and two children and mortally wounded his two stepchildren, and then took his own life. The weapon which the maniac wielded with such ap palling results was a large butcher knife. The nearest neighbor of the Spraggs lived almost a mile distant, and it was some time before the news of the crime spread. In a few hours numbers of peo ple arrived from town, and an inveetiua lion of the scene was made. A most sickening siht met their gne. Lying in the yard near tbe gate was the remains of Mrs. Spragg, mutilated al most lieyond recognition. In the little dwelling in one comer of the sitting 100m lay the lifeless body of little Caley, 6 years old, and in the other Albert," a lonr-year-oia boy. vn the kitchen iloor, with blood besmeared all over his hands and face and still clinching the terrible instrument of death, lay the author of the awful crimes. Two stepchildren of Sprsgg, both under C years, were taken to the home of a neighbor, where they are dying from d oxen a of cuts that cover their little bodies. Evidences of a ter rible struggle were plainly visible in the pragg home, where the walls and fur niture were spattered with blood. The paiticnlars ot the butchery are learned irom Dora, the eleven-year-old step daughter of Spragg, who, eluding her stepfather's murderous grasp, escaped to a neighbor's and gave the alann. Spragg bad beencomplainingall morn ing of his head, and the nearest neigh bor, Mr. Meyers, was sent to Ridge way for a doctor. Soon after Meyers left pragg tied Caley 's hands behind him and deliberately cut his throat. Mrs. Spragg rushed into the room and at tempted to interfere, when Spragg mado for her. She ran into tbe yard, around ihe bouse and then into it again, closely followed by Spragg. In the house he caught her, and a desperate struggle re sulted. He literally hacked her head and face to pieces, and then, cnlting her hear! almost from the body, dragged her by the hair into the yard. " Covered with iore, the human monster returned tothe house to continue his work. Dora, who was sick in bed, had climbed out of a window in the meantime and escaped. When the people lirst liegan o arrive they were kept from entering hy Spragg, who stood in the dndr with a loaded shotgun. Finally he locked the loor, and it was then that he butchered his stepchildren. Just as the crowd was preparing to break into the house two -hot were licaid. and when the door was finally forced open Spragg was dead and the scene as described was presented to view. Tbe two stepchildren cannot re cover. ABOUT A LITTLE WORD. Ncgroe Willi to bo Admitted to Labor UrgHiilzailun. , Philadelphia, December 10. A vigor ous elTortwilt be made by leading colored men at the labor conference to be held in Denver this week to have the word "white" Etticken fiomthe constitution of the labor organ xations. To day's issue of the Christian Recorder, the organ of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, contains an oien letter to John Burns, who has como to this country from England tor the purpose of attend ing ihe conference, to espouse the cause of the colored men in the light for equal rights. The letter says in part: " In the name of the rights of labor wo ask you to make some notes for your coutitrynien at home concerning more than SlOW.OOO workmen in this country, w ho sutler the greatest injustice at tbe hands ol organized labor in the United States. In the name of ttie.-e colored wurku en we urge you to report upon the conditions which exist in this country and to recommend that there be no co operation on the patt of the British trades unions unlit the American trades unions shall give all workmen in thia broad land equality of opportunity. Mr. Powderly 111 ad a magnificent stand for justice at Richmond, and Ji ia iiiHuence began to wane from that mo ment. Mr. Gompers has attempted to do something, but he stands almost alone. There are a few leaders like these, who, unable to inaugurate an agi tation for equality, would welcome from von a fraternal woid 01 warning to the ell'ect that thev who would demand their rights must respect the rights of others."
