William P. Simpson of the South Bend broom handle factory, has found that hemlock, so common in that region, is the best material yet discovered for broom handles. Alder has heretofore been considered the best, but handles made of hemlock and sent to customers in Portland and San Francisco have been pronounced by them superior to alder. The hemlock is whiter, polishes better, is lighter in weight and is equally as strong. Mr. Simpson says he has a mar ket for all the broom handles he can make, and expects a premium on those made of hemlock. Judge Han ford in the United States Circuit Court at Tacoma has appointed President Paul SChnllze, Joseph S.

T., January 4. Two des peradoes who have infested Oklahoma for a long time past have been run to ground and made to bite the dust. Be fore they died they fought their pursuers and seriously wounded one of them. The outlaws are Bob Moore and George East; both of whom are suspected of having been implicated in the Canadian, Texas, express robbery, a station on the Atchison and Topeka road, and the kill ing of Sheriff McGee. News of theaffair was received at United States Marshal Nix's oilice here to-day. Deputy Mar shal Bill Williams and a strong detach ment of deputies had been chasing the outlaws for several days. They had trailed them from place to place, but had not come within fighting distance until yesterday. Although the sides were unequal, half a dozen or more deputies to two outlaws, the latter were armed to the teeth and their natural desperateness, strengthened by the box in which the deputies had put them, made them no easy mark. They were rounded-op in a desolate valley in the southwestern part of Washita county about noon, and when commanded to surrender made a stand and began using their Winchesters. Their aim was good, for in the first volley one of the posse fell seriously wounded by a ball in the side. The next instant, however, both outlaws were stretched on the ground dead with bullets from the deputies' guns in their hearts. The outlaws were a veritable walking arsenal and, had they not been killed so soon, would doubtless have laid some of the deputies to rest. They were both old offenders with enviable reputations among their craft, and their riddance is joyous news to the Territory officials, generally as thry were the constant dread of Okla homa. SAY CARLISLE BROKE FAITH. Iteport Current That Wall Street Ha Asked III ltemoval. Chicago, January 4. A special to the Daily News from Washington says: " Leading New York bankers have made a formal demand on the President for the removal of Secretary Carlisle. The request was made by J. Pierrepont Mor gan, who came on from New York for that purpose. Mr. Morgan was the chief factor in the late syndicate which took the last issue of bonds. There have been many informal demands for Secretary Carlisle's retirement coming from Wall street in the last year, but this is the tirtt time the movement has taken an organized form. New York financiers charge that the Secretary broke faith with them on the recent bond issue by springing his currency plan just after he disposed of the bonds and depressing the price on the market, resulting in the dissolution of the syndicate. The PreS' ident informed Secretary Carlisle to-day lor the first time of Morgan s modest re quest, and indicated he had no intention ol asking Secretary Carlisle to quit." PLATE-GLASS WAR. There Will be a Cut Where the Jobber Kzpected an Advance. Chicago, January 4. The Tribune to morrow will say : A plate-glass war is on, und it may result disastrously to some of the jobbers of the country, who have been caught in the " trap." Nego tiations have been pending for several months for a combination of plate-glass works, and the deal was announced to tro into effect January 1. An immediate advance in plate glass was to take place, and on the strength of this assurance the jobbers bought up every foot of glass in the country for speculation. Now comes the announcement that the deal has fallen through, and that the present prices would sutler another 20 per cent cut. As a result a decidedly ugly feeling prevails in all branches of this industry, the manufacturers asserting that they are operating at a loss and the jobbers insisting that they have been mulcted. -AND- -s 1893 SHOT-GUN used ly all tie lost advanced trap and same snoctin. i iii book is sent FREE.

HIS SOJOURN IS ABOUT OVER Publicity Given to Many Trite Truism on the Complex Character of Ameri can Civilization Our Blze, Wealth and Natural Kesources Stagger Him. New Yobk, January 3. The Recorder to-morrow will print an interview with John Burns, M. P., the English la bor leader, as to what he thinks of this country, now that his visit has almost come to a close. Mr. Burns arrived here this afternoon from Philadelphia, and left to-night for Boston, where he speaks to-morrow. Among other things Mr. Burns said : " Well, my visit to America is rapidly drawing to a close. It has been a grand trip. The size, wealth and natural re sources of the country have simply stag gered me. I have visited fourteen cities, and in every one I have been handsome ly received. In fact, i met witn no greater than in Chicago itself, where a few cranky editors have tried to misrep resent me to the people and misrepre sent the people to me. Everywhere both State and municipal officials have treated me with great considera tion have gone out of their way to oblige me, and have even complimented me by saying that 1 had some knowledge and experience in municipal affairs. 1 shall take home several trunks lull of documents and reports relating to municipal government, and I shall study them all caretuilv. v hat l have seen of American life has been on the whole pleasant, interesting and deeply in structive. Of all countries in the world one can generalize less about America than anv other. The diversity of races, religious customs and habits renders generalization not only superficial, but absurd. The heterogeneous character of the Domilation prevents singularity of judgment. The individual interests of your communities are as different as one State in the Worth diners from onotner in the extreme South or West. The fact is an American city is often a microcosm of the whole human race. The Italian from sunny Italy, the negro from Africa, the Englishman and Swede cannot live in one city and display in relation to each other that homogenity and corpor ate life which would have saved you from many of your troubles and munic ipal difficulties. "America is an international mosaic on the floor of the universe. Some day the various colors will assume their proper position to each other, and when that happens it will in spite of the gloomy outlook that monopoly causes the picture to assume be a work of Amer ica's best citizens and a justification of all the trouble you will have to undergo to secure such a happy result, l nite to compare like with like, and find that in many respects American labor is Detter off than that in Europe and other old countries, but your miners and in many cases your unskilled laborers are worse off than in Europe, and I am sorry to say their prospects are not improving. Your skilled artisan, especially where he is organized, is better off than in the old country in point of wages, and enjoys a better standard of comfort, but what he gains over the English at the spigot of high wages be oiten loses at tne Dung hole of lack of employment. The Amer ican works harder while at it, and in many cases his hours are longer and his holidays fewer than those of the Euro pean workman. His foot-pound of eh- ergv exerted in the production of wealth and the mental strain that the hustling tendency of American life demands re s!!v make him no better off after all." OUTLOOK BETTER. The London Times' Review of Last Year' Buslne. London, January 3. The Times will ay to-morrow in its trade review of last vear: While the possibilities of a year ago were only partially realized, trade in the aggregate may be said to have turned the corner in a series of ten years. The hinderance of enterprises is mainly to be ascribed: "First, to the depreciation of silver and the tariff wrangle in America, which when ended failed to give trade a con tinuous impetus. "Second, to foreign competition, which, however, is not increasing, the main injury arising from our establish ing manufactures in erowine countries and damaging similar ones at home. " Third, to the disappointing narvest and low prices for grain. " On the other hand, there have been evidences of sounder trading. The fail ures were fewer, and tne capital m volved was lower than before iu recent years. We enlarged our exports and im ports on the whole, although adverse re sults due to the extreme dullness are re ported in some quarters. Hopeful views are now current. They are mainly di rected to the early improvement of the American markets on a more assured basis, secured by the tariff settlement and a better financial position. There is expectation also of a betterment in South America and of some recovery in Australia and the kast." Rich Strike In Oil. Flokknce, Col., January 4. The rich est strike ever made in the Florence oil field has been made by the United Oil Company at Coal creek, two miles from this city. The new well is said to be the equal of any in Pennsylvania. LUMBER COMBINATION. Ban Francisco Dealers Club Together for Mutual Benefit. Saw Francisco, January 3. Nearly every prominent firm dealing in lumber in this city is interested in a movement to form a combination, increase prices and insure a profit in a branch of business which has been conducted at a loss for months. Negotiations with that end in view has been in progress for two weeks, but as yet no definite organization is the result. A committee has been chosen, a plan outlined and rules bave been formulated, even a name for the new concern lias been adopted, but the step which is to make all these measures practically operative has not been taken. Local lumbermen are a unit in declaring that trade with them has been worse than profitless for a year. Cargoes have been sold at a loss of $600 and $700. It was found cheaper in many instances to have work performed and material pur chased in British Columbia rather than in this city. The only possible field lor even small profits is in the foreign mar ket. Under these conditions local mer chants considered it absolutely necessary to take some step to stop the competi tion going on and to raise prices until there be a reasonable profit. With that object a meeting was called. Repre sentatives of the following firms were in attendance : Preston & McKinnon. the Golden Gate Company, Pope & Talbot, Kenton, Holmes & Co., W. J. Adams, dray's Harbor Commercial Company, the Pa cific Pine Lumber Company, Hanson & Mmpson .Lumber Company and Wood-Slade-Thayer Lumber Company. After an informal discussion of the matter a committee of three was ap pointed and instructed to report a plan of action. This committee urged that all of the interested companies unite in the creation of what is to be known as the Central Lumber Company of Cali fornia. It urged that all consignments of lumber be made to this company, which would then appoint its selling agents. In that way all sales wonld come under the direct snnrr vision of the combination. Every U u days there was to be a division of profits upon a basis fair to all the companies. The plan seemed to meet with approval, and it was hoped that it would go into opera tion to-day. Certain delays have oc curred, however, and it is difficult to tell when the combination will be formed. SENATOR LEXOW'S REPLY. HI Auiwer to the Criticism Dr. Parkhurst. of Ber. Albany, Jf. Y., January 3. In an in terview this evening Senator Lexow said he had no answer to make on the criti cisms of the work of the committee con tained in Dr. Farkhurst's manifesto. Obviously, the best answer would be to point to the committee and say : " By their works ye shall know them." Sen ator Lexow said he had too high a regard for Dr. Parkhurst to say that he is actu ated by any but the higheet and purest motives in what he says or does. He continued : " But it is strange indeed that when the crucial point was reached and Super intendent Bvrnes was on the stand, as everybody knew he would be last Satur day, everything that was suggested was done. And yet this criticism. Through out the entire examination Mr. Moss stood at Mr. GofTs side and co-operated in the conduct of inquiry. It is unnec essary to add anything to this. As to a deal, it is plain one could not be effected unless through the co-operation of. a majority of the committee acting in con junction with all the counsel. The statement of this proposition is the best refutation of the charges. " Let any one suggest a question that was not pnt, a charge that was cot made, an indictment that was not brought or anything, in short, that was omitted before they criticise. To my mind the meat of the statement is to be found in the declaration that the Senate has uncovered all the corruption in exist ence in the Police Department, and there still remains work for the Sociefy for the Prevention of Crime to do. 1 wish them God-speed in this work." 1 Reduction of Wage. Nitta Ycma, Miss., January 3. A movement, which seems destined to be come popular among the planters 01 Mississippi, was inaugurated at a plant ers meeting in mis town, rromment agriculturists of Delta were present, and resolutions were passed fixing the pay of the best male labor at ou cents per day and the best class of female labor at 40 cents per day. Not more than $7 per month with rations will be paid the best laborers, and crops should be laid by at a maximum expenditure 01 fd.ou per acre. Clubs will be formed at once throughout the State, having for their motto the reduction ol wages, uoionei John R. Cameron, Captain John Willis and Dr. A. J. Phelps, three of the most prominent men in the Mate, are giving the movement their indorsement. Germany and m Tariff War. Berlin, January 3. -The Hamburg correspondent, usually inspired from the Wilhelm Strasse, speaks of the prohibi tion of German wine by the Washington government as the first step in a tariff war between the United States and Ger many. The Vossische Zeitung remarks that Germany can win no laurels in a tariff war with America. Attacked a Convent Farm. London, January 3.
