been taken into cus tody up to Sp and sent to Springfield About 400 of the miners held a secret meeting to day and passed resolutions to the effect that they would hereafter giolest no trains passing

May Get Tliclr Other Washington News AV ashington June IS Repre sentative Richardson of Tennessee chair man of the committee on printing is pre paring a bill which he will introduce tn a few days to provide the employes of the government printing office with a library The printing office is the only bureau of the government in Washington that has not a library attached for the benefit of the employes and there is no good reason why this discrimination should have been made Speaking of the matter to day Air Rich ardson said: was not until the other day that my attention was called to the fact that the employes of the printing office do not enjoy the advantages of a library the same us other department clerks The employes of the printing office are deserving of tts much consideration at the hands of the government as any other class of pub lic servants they work harder and have longer hours than clerks in the other de partments and the privileges of a library would be greatly appreciated by them It will cost the government but a few dollars to provide a good library and it will be money well expentled 1 doubt if there Is a man in the house who would object to the employes hating the use of a library I shall endeavor to get the bill through at this Public Printer Benedict said to day: I heartily favor the proposition to provide a library for the printing office The em ployes of this great government workshop are entitled to all the privileges and ad vantages enjoyed by clerks hi the other departments and if I can do anything to help the matter along 1 shall gladly do so but what we want just now more than anything else Is an immediate extension of lloor space and the sooner congress will give us that the better ft will be for all concerned Whenever I go through the building there is a doubt in my mind wheth er I will be able to get back to the office above The building is so obi and rickety there is no telling when we may have a catastrophe Several cracks have been re cently noted in the walls and commented on as dangerous An extension of lloor space would relieve us of any immediate danger es I am in favor of a library but more particularly ol a new printing office and the present site Is as good us any that could be selected hi my judgment" The employes of the printing otiue are very much elated at the idea of getting a library and say they hope Air Richard son w'ill be successful in getting his bill through this session of congress In the general deficiency bill which was reported to the house this afternoon from the committee on appropriations there is included an item of $5000 for the widow of the late Congressman John Logan Chip man of Detroit There is no doubt of the passage of the bill and that Airs Chipman will receive this sum The residue of Judge salary from the time of his death to the close of his term would have been $7011 and he would have been entitled to $W0 for mileage for the three sessions of this congress had lie lived This would make a total he would have received of about $S3W It is customary to pay the widow or nearest surviving relative of de ceased congressmen the sum of $5000 no matter how much excess of salary there would have been due and less than $5000 only in those cases where a member died with less than a year of his term unexpired The deficiency bill also contains other par agraphs of interest to Michigan One item is for $101627 to pay the long deferred judg ment rendered by the court of claims in favor of the Pottawatomie Indians of Michi gan Another ancient claim provided for by the appropriation bill is the traveling ex penses of the irst Michigan Cavalry from Utah where they were dismissed in $66 Henry McCormick of Grand Rapids who has been named a special treasury agent will succeed to the duties of AV inches of St Clair lately removed The house this afternoon took up the consideration of the Hatch anti option bill There was a contest over the question of proceeding with it The friends of the anti option bill were victorious and the vote Stood two to one This is indicative that the bill will pass handsomely for nearly every man will vote on the final passage of the bill as he voted on the question of taking it up The debate on the meas ure may be prolonged through the greater part of the present week Of the Alichi gan delegation Messrs Griffin and Stephen son voted against the consideration of the measure The postoffices of Marshall and Calumet having made the showing required by law for the establishment of free delivery both offices will be placed on the free delivery list as soon as the appropriation for the next fiscal year becomes available An effort to compile statistics regarding convict labor in the United States has been instituted by the house committee on labor as a to drawing a bill to pre vent a competition between prison made goods and the products of free labor No accurate information upon this subject so far as the United States is concerned is to be found later than a report of the com missioner of labor made in 1886 Great changes have taken place in the past eight years so that the figures of 1886 cannot be relied upon as 'applying to the present situ ation By convict labor goods can be man ufactured so much cheaper than under oth er circumstances that it is said they drive the goods of free labor out of the field and throws workingmen out of employment when put on the market in competition A notable instance of this has been furnished bv the mat making trade A representative of the Brooklyn Mat Makers' Union who recently addressed the committee on the subject pointed out that the door mats us in tha capitol Avere made in a Penn sylvania penitentiary The committee las rimiosted the commissioner of labor to investigate the subject Letters have been also to the officials of the states and territories for information Some of the to be inquired into are: The number of convicts

cut from $2 85 and $3 a day to $2 and $2 5i) a day The reason they did not object at the time was they thought the cut was only temporary nnd the wages would be restored as soon as the warm weather
