By Telegraph to the Morning Star.

Treasury Department to-day resumed
the purchase of silver. The amount of
fered was 924,000 ounces and the
amount purchased 679,000 ounces at
.93.25.98.40.
The Secretary of the Treasury to-day
issued the following circular in regard

Donas: "fuDiic notice is nereDy given
that the time within which bonds of 4)
per cent, loan will be received at the of
fice of the Secretary of the Treasury for

2 per cent, per annum has been
extended until further notice.
The interest on the -uncontinued 4J
per cent, bonds ceased to-day. The

total of $2,300,000 presented at the Trea
sury Department for that purpose. The
privilege of continuing the 4J per cent.
bonds at 2 per cent, will be extended in
definitely.
Washington, Sept. 2. At last the
Department-of State has heard directly
from Minister Eagan. The news came
in the shape of the following cablegram:
"Santiago, Sett, I Blaine, Washing
ton A decisive battle at Valparaiso on
the aath ot August. Kevolution en
tirely successful. President Balmaceda
resigned on the 29th. Revolutionists
fully installed. Everything tranquil.
Egan."
Thedelay in receiving this report has
Deen solved by the Department. Act
ing Secretary Wharton has received
information that telegraphic connection
between bantiago and Valparaiso, the
western cable terminus, had been cut and
has just been restored, and that the line
eastward from Santiago to Buenos Ayres
has been interrupted by heavy snows in
th& Andes mountains.
Although Minister Egan's cablegram
officially indicates the success of what he
describes as the revolution, he has not
yet informed the Department ;of State
that a Government has been set up that
may be recognized as a Government of
the people, representative of the coun
try, Accordingly the department will
probably await further detailed informa
tion from the Minister before according
lormai recognition to the new Govern
ment. COLORED CONVENTION.
About Three Hundred in Attendance at
the Gathering at Houston, Texas Offi.
cers Elected Addresses.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
New Orleans, Sept. 2. A special
from Houston, Texas, says : The Col
ored Mens State Convention which
met yesterday was largely attended,
about 300 being in attendance. What
ever was lacking in numbers was amply
maaeupin point 01 enthusiasm. The
opening address of Rev. J. B. Scott con
tained many points of excellent advice
and thoughts of intrinsic merit. Elec
tion of a temporary chairman resulted
in the selection of J. P. Stewart, of
riearne, who made a long speech in ao
cepting the honor conferred. In the
scramble for temporary secretary Prof.
L. S. Simmonds was elected. The Com
mittee on Credentials was then ap
pointed. Rev. H. Watts then addressed the
Convention. He counselled conserva
tism and moderation in all the delibera
tions of the Convention and spoke of
the necessity for more race pride before
respect can be demanded of the white?
man, and asserted that the Southern
white man is the friend and not the
enemy ot the negro, and closed by
counselling accumulation
M
acquisition of practical knowledge as
prerequisites of success.

LONDON. SeDt. 2. A hip-h nffirial in
the Foreign Office thinks it improbable
.that an immediate serious dispute will
arise over the sultan s permitting the
Russian ship Moscowa to pass through
the Dardanelles. Official disnatr.hes re
cord the fact that the Moscowa's stop
page at the entrance to the straits was
due to a breach of the regulation re
quiring that notice be sent to the Porte,
and that the Sultan's firman be obtained
before making the passage. The Rus
sian Government replied that the custo
mary notice was unnecessary, as the
only military aboard were soldiers
who had been discharged, having
served . their time. A similar case
occurred in April, when a Russian
snip under commercial flag carrying
soldiers and war material.! was nermit-
ted to pass through the j Dardanelles.
The British Ambassador then advised
the Sultan that Great Britain and other
signatory powers would I take united
action in the event of any material
change in the Porte's policv in reeard
to the Dardenelles. The signatory
powers were cognizant of the Moscowa
incident, out do not consider it such a

quire formal protest. I

The Cotton Manufacturers' Association
Adopts a Resolution to Reduce Wages
of Operatives. '
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
Fall River, Mass., Sept. 2. The
Cotton Manufacturers' Association held
a meeting this afternoon and voted to
reduce wages. The matter of revising
the schedule of prices now paid was re
f erred to the executive committee of
the Association, which will report as
soon as possible, ine reduction is ex
pected to cro into effect Oct. 5. Although
the amount is not generally understood,
even py manuiacturers, it is believed
that it will reach ten per cent. Manu
facturers have issued the following of.
ficial explanation from the report of the
Executive Committee, which . was
adopted by a vote of 29 out of 33 prcs
sent: ; ' "
The last general changes in prices paid
ior labor, made by the association was
an advance that went into effect Feb
ruary 13, 1888. Since that time, revi
sion of the schedule for sninmncr Ims
been made, amounting to an advance of
aoout o per cent, x he competition in
skilled help work, for which the .sche
dule has been fixed has reduced wages
paid sucn operatives quite materially.
Meantime, the value of our product has
steadilv declined, until we have-renrhpd
a point where there is not only no pro-
ni, out a most decided loss in continu
ing to manufacture eroods on the present
basis of cost. For the purpose of com
parison we win tase tne market value
of a cut of forty-five yards of print
cloth. Assuming that the amount of
cotton required in its manufacture
is eight pounds, in February, 1888,
when this body decided that the condi
tion of business warranted the paying of
prices for labor then adopted, middling
cotton was 10c per pound, and print
cloth 4c per yard. To-day middling
cotton is 8 7-16c per pound and print
cloth 2 l-16c per yard. In February,
1888, the margin between the market
value of 45 yards of cloth and its cost of
50c was left for supplies, incidental ex
penses and profits. To-day that margin
is only 14c. In view of these facts your
executive committee believes that the
time has come when some action should
be taken toward reducing the cost ot
production, and in order to bring the
matter before you for consideration,
unanimously recommend that a reduc
tion in wages of operatives be made,
to take effect October 5, 1891.
The motion for curtailment was lost
by a vote of 19 to 8.
CHICAGO MARKET REVIEW.
Fluctuations in Prices of Grain and
Provisions.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
Chicago, Sept. 2. Cable news was
all discouraging to holders of wheat at
the opening and in the absence of any
domestic features of an opposite ten
dency the market opened here at a
decline from Jc to c ior December.
The bulk of business at the start was at
$1.00, compared with $1.01 , after
the market closed vesterdav. Snmp
j I - ir
sales were made at $1.00 and then a
reactionary movement set in and rarriH
the price up to $1.01 J and after selling
oacK to 51.UI, it made another advance
upon which 1M was reached before
it turned acain toward a lowr ra n ere
These fluctuations covered the business
of the first hour. The nrincinal
of weakness which followed during the
second hour of the session and durins
t -, m . . 5
wnicn uecemoer declined to $1.00,
proceeded from heaw sell i nor
orders, which came from New
York. Following the flucf.i ations
already recorded, were advances to
$1.00 and declines to $1.00; several
times repeated, and on one occasion the
advance reached $1.00, on late quota
tions for English Consols showing a de
cline of 3-16c from the one preceding it.
x ne extreme weakness or loreign mar
kets at the close was reflected h ere in
diminished business at the end and
figures were 99 c.
Corn started on a boom on renorn of
frost in the far Northwest. Later in the
day word was passed around that frost
had cancelled all dates and had indefin
itely postponed its Southward tour, and
upon that the early boom collapsed,
and the price, which in the meantime
had been shoved ud about 1 rent
above the closing price of the day be-
lure, mmDiea until an tnat gam was
dropped out of sieht and about 9c be
sides. Receipts here were almost 100
cars under yesterday's estimates, which
was one. of the milder influences in sii re
port of the early advance; but estimated
receipts ior to-morrow being 71 cars, was
an added reason to postponement of
frost visitation for the sucreerli'nor Hp.

ui me lrost scare, carnea tne price ot

The closing price was 58c against 58c
at tne corresponding time on yester
day. The earlv trade in oats was fairlv ac
tive, but the market was very quiet dur
ing the latter part of the session. First
prices were one-eighth of a cent above
last nicht's close. An advance of Lc
occurred through sympathy with corn.

The market for hoc nrodncts
rather irregular, and while some sales
were made at less than yesterday's clos
ing prices there were too many buy
ing orders to allow a permanent
drop at that time. Receipts of - hogs
were much heavier than had been esti
mated yesterday and the price was lower
and consequently when in the face of
that the price of pork climbed from $12.90
for January at the start to $13.15, in
about half a minute some surprise was
felt by those who had started by offer
ing it at lower price. The advance was
in sympathy with the early advance in
corn and when later it became very
weak, pork followed and closed 10
12Jc lower than yesterday. Lard and
ribs were comparatively steady, the
former closing unchanged to 2c lower,
while the latter closed 2c lower to
2c higher.

By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
St. Louis, September 2. A special
dispatch from Del Rio, Texas, says:
Telegraphic advices from Samuel.Texas,
a small station onlhe Southern Pacific
Railway, located in a thinly settled sec
tion, give a thrilling account of b daring
train robbery committed by six masked
men at that nlare shortlv after midnitrrit

in the safe in the exnress car were seized
by the robbers as well as several sacks of
man ana registered packages from the
mail car. The amount!of monev'obtained
cannot be learned, but it will doubtless
reach into tens of thousands.
The train was just pulling out from
the station when six masked men, sim
ultaneously mounted the engine, mail
and express cars two men for each of
these positions. Over forty shots were

a uynaraue cartridge against a small
window in the express. The effect of
this was to tear out the window and
otherwise damage the car. Theexpress
messenger was stunned, but he recover
ed in a few moments only to be over
powered by the robbers and made to
give up his safe-key. The train was de
laved several hours.
The robbers took their time in doing
tnejoo, and with the utmost coolness
and exhibition of great nerve. Horses
were in readiness for them and on com
pletion of their work the bandits rode

The sheriff of this city was telegraphed
to secure a posse and give pursuit, a
reward of $250 per capita being offered
for the capture of the robbers. He left
