M-j.'S Xo eland, of New York, sec

man oonoerning Warner Miller's bill to
tax .oleomargarine: "Experience shows
that the effective polioe power of the
national government only will prevent
the fraudulent pale of counterfeit butter,
the ihost stringent State laws being per
sistently : .evaded, while 10 cents per
pound is less jthah the difference be
tween the cost 'of the fraudulent com
pound and the natural butter. , The
laimer is Composed mainly of lard, and
Can be produced for less than 12 cents per
pound, while good butter cannot be
made under 20 at the moft favorable

dairy farnii and! stocks have depreciated
33 to 50 per cent in value.

DUPLICATED. "i
Chicago, April 19 Th Baltimore
& .Ohio freight yards have resumed their"
usual appearance. At 7 o'clock this
morning all the strikers were at work.
The non-union men, of whom there are
but two, in fact, have been put to work
elsewhere. It was stated at '. first that
there were seven non-union ""men, but
five of these had been discharged some
time before the strike and the other two
asked to be sent away. An attempt was
made at 8:30 this mornining to: send out
a train on the Lake Shore road, when
the soenes of the Missouri Pacific and
East St. Louis strikes were exactly du
plicated. . The train was made up under
a guard of polioe and railroad officials,
but as soon as it started the strikers
swarmed over the train, set the brakes,
uncoupled the cars and threw away the f
coupiing-piusi. no attempt ; was maae
to use force by the police to prevent
these acts and no violence to person was
offered by the strikers. It is stated on
good authority that the Lake Shore of
ficials propose to make the present strike
an absolute issue as to their right to re
tain non-union men and also afford them
adequate protection. The failure of the
towu of Lake police to protect their
prupirty against the strikers will be
uken ns c!i arly showing that the town
cannot or will not afford protection, and
the sheriff and Governor in turn will be
called upon for assistance.

Nxw YoitK, April 19. All night last
night the executive board of the Empire
Protective Association" was secretly de
bating the expediency of tieing up all
the surface roads of the city, and it was
not until 1 o'clock this morning that a
determination was reached. An order
was then prepared and sent to the offi
cials of local assemblies, calling out the
men on all the street car lines Bave those
on Eighth and Ninth avenues. : '. At 4
o'clock this morning was the hour fixed
for the tie-up, and the order was obeyed.
The Fourth avenue employees said after
wards to a reporter that they -had no
ground of complaint against the com
pany. They had five or six non-union
men, but they were with the employees,
and would be initiated into the! union
next Saturday; they were laying off
now solely because of the general order
to do so. The superintendent of the
road said he : knew that his men were
entirely satisfied, but he had heard
there was a belief that the roads had
combined. There was, he believed, no
truth in any statement to that : effect.
Ie had no one to consult in this matter.
as Mr. Vanderbilt was on the ocean, as
was one director who would be likely
to act in such a case. He did not care
whether his men were members of a
union or not, so long as the cars were
running. 1 bey would make no attempt
to run any cars. The tie-up would cost
the road in losses at least $2,000 per
day.; The doors of the stables were
closed today and the .horses were cared
tor by the men,
The last -car on the Sixth avenue road
was laid off; at '4 o'clock this morning.
Supt. Curtis said he knew of no griev
ances on the part of the men; but out
side men said; they had submitted a list
of grievances last woek, of which a part
iwere granted and the rest flatly denied.
iae norses wui De carea tor oy the men
Unless an effort be made te replace them.
The Dry Dock, Grand street and East
proadway lines are also ticd-up this
morning. The employees told the su
perintendent they left work by orders
from the committee. Ihe superinten
dent said he did not know why his roads
were tied up; .that he had always kept
His agreement to the letter with his
ttcn.; He had. nothing to do with the
Third avenue line and did not see why the
public should be inconvenienced and the
company's business ruined to suit those
people. A detail of men has been apt
pointed to look after the horsesj The
men are sorer over the tie-up . and say
uiey; nave no grievances. : ;
I The Forty-second street nd 8tJ Nieh
olas avenue railroad has also stopped;
At the office it Was said that the men had
no grievances, but only went out because
ordered to do so. Avenues C and D
lines also had their cars laid oft. j Men
were left to feed the horses. No griex-
ances are complained oi by tbemeicn
these lines, i! Blecker street and Twenty
third street lines had their cars hauled
ff. It was Bald the men; had no coin
taint to make. The Broadway and
Seventh avenue lines and Barclay street
lines had cars ail laid on. The men say
tney nave no rormal grievances to make
. 1 I ' ' "
There are seven! non-union menandthev
aye to be discharged before the men will
return to wort; even should the tie-up
be declared off. The horses are cared
for. .
The Forty-second street and
street ferry tine of cars have stopped.
Ihe men here feel bitter because thev
arp called upon to stop work just after
thjb, company has granted - all the men
asked. They say that if the com Dan v
will promise to use none but union men
the- employees will demand : of the
Empire Protective Ass ciation that tlolr!
nuo we reiuaaeu. luey an wantcu to
work. Ihe men on the "Belt" line
railroad did hot report for duty this
morning. The superintendent, said he
understood that the , employees wanted!
several non-union men and a clerk dis
charged. . ;
The president of the board of police
commissioners sent out today a circular
letter to the headquarters of each of the
surface and elevated railroads of the
city, informing them that the polioe were

BAXTtMORB, April : iy There is no
change in the strike of car-drivers in
this city. There was a demonstration
here this forenoon, when a car on one of
the striking lines appeared on the streets,
but the J police promptly arrested two
men which restored quiet. The strikers
and the companies remain firm and the
latter state that they will not accede to
the demand of the drivers. There are
but two companies running the full
number of cars and people are sub-i
iected to! serious inconveniences. i

We learn from private letters received
of a fearful and destructive tornado
which swept over portions of Ruther
ford county last Thursday evening the
most violent wind storm that county
has witnessed in years. The" storm
struck in at or near Island Ford, on
Broad river, in the southwestern part
of the county, and traveled parallel
with the river for miles at a most- fu
rious speed, in a northeast direction.
The storm was near two miles in width,
but it was not so fierce but for a dist
ance 6i one half mile, ami that almost
in the center. Dwelling nouses, barns.
stables, fences, sheds, Lc., were swept
away like trash. Large trees were orn up
by the roofes, and the wake pf the storm
for miles presented a scene- of devasta
tion and ruin. A number of horses.
cows, sheep and hogs were killed, But
fortunately no persons were killed,
though several were injured. At the
house of a Mr. Scoggins two little chil
dren narrowly escaped death.Thehouse
was built of logs, and the children were
sleeping on a bed. The roof gave way
and some of the heavy timbers fell in on
the bed where the children were lying.
The bestead was an old-fashioned one
and very strong, and the j head-board
caught the falling timbers, and prevent
ed the children from being killed. They
were recovered after the storm, alive,
but slighly injured. The aggregate loss
will be great. The force of the storm
was broken by a small mountain before
it reached the town of Rutherfordton.
