CHICAGO, April is stated in starch manufacturing that a secret meeting Of Western manufacturers has been called by President Beardsley, of Elfchart, to consider Hie basts of an agreement nlth the Eastern dealers by which prices can be upheld.

At a meet- Ing last week It was -practically decided to uamwinr form a combination to control tlie OATS-Weak cash; May) prices, but no compromise could be reached on the matter of king production and It Is now stated that certain prominent manufacturers threaten that they will ignore the decision of the so-called combination. Under the powers conferred upon him the president has the authority to discipline the unruly members, bnt whether or not he possesses the power Is considered doubtful. It Is furthermore said that depot as the fast mall went past irffcy.morntng, to witness the catch- pf Ihe mall sack post by the Itt to It passed by.

Of a Stuml's manifold trials, none are more 'ttth-prpvoking than the demands upon and the tramp abroad.

Some time year a beguiling applicant by tho ae of Fowler (Fowler at Bristol, but having many aliases) went the rounds )f the consulates in Great Britain. At Bristol he so far worked upon tho sympathy of the consul as to shortly make timself the hero of some lines, which as possible from tho depot at Sixty-fifth street. A large force of. police was sent from the Central office to protect the cars on their down town. The first car had scarcely proceeded two blocks from the depot when It was surrounded by a crowd of men and women.

Near Sixtieth street two men ran from the sidewalk and attempted to cut the traces, The police In charae of the car knocked the men down with their clubs, and another section dispersed the crowd on the sidewalk. When the second car came from the depot It was also attacked by a crowd of two hundred men. After a lively skirmish the police succeeded In driving the rioters away. Near Flfty-serenth street the car was acraln attacked with bricks and stones. Captain Steers, who wnft in charge, ordered the police to drive the crowd away.

Again the clubs were vigorously used. The crowd fled, leaving the police masters of the position, and the cars proceeded on their way down town without further trouble. Between twenty and thirty of the rioters were badly clubbed about the head, and two policemen were seriously Injured by bricks and stones. Bcven of the rioters were arrested and locked up In the Flfty- nlnth street police The State Board of Railroad Commissioners remained In session till 7 p. when they adjourned, and It was slated they would probably not render a decision In the dispute between the Third Avenue Surface road and the men until to-day.

During the afternoon witnesses were examined for both sides. About an hour before the close of thu session an offer was made by counsel for the strikers to submit the propositions of both the company and the strikers to arbitration. This was declined by counsel for the company unless certain points as to employ- the Eastern manufacturers will not join the movement, and In that event tho advance In prices Is not likely to go Into effect. The meeting will be held in this city within a few days. Indian Fighting That it Safe For the FT.

By a night march Dorst reached the mouth of the Sim Bernardino river on the 9th. The march was retarded by the difficult character of tho country and the fact that It was unknown to the scouts, no command having ever before passed over It.

It was impossible to find a practicable route for the pack train over the mountain to the right until the 10th. Dorst learns that the hostlles started through Los Flores mountains, but apparently discovering the pursuit, turned and came northward to the frontier, thence crossing the valley westward Into the Canon mountains. They had stolen between fifty and sixty horses. The indications are that the band lias gone to Cananneas. The enlistment of Dorst's scouts runs out In a few (lays, and he had to come back.

Dr. Gilninn, in a recent article in the Chicago Sanitary News, says: One of the fiitul disorders that darkens the pages of tho world's combines the conditions expressed in the scriptural phraseology connecting war, famine and pestilence. In typhus, or petecohial, fever we have almost always a condition of famjno during which it becomes epidemic, but tho disease will, after its development, attack the well- nourished and well-cared for as readily as those half-starved and poorly sheltered. It is, essentially, a famine disease and a filth disease. In prisons, its malignant breath has destroyed its victims under the name of jail fever.

On shipboard the hapless emigrant sinks under it as ship-fever. The typhus fever must not be confounded with typhoid fever, there is an essential difference between tho two. Typhus fever is very infectious, and typhoid fever but feebly so. Typhoid fever is not so dangerous as typhus, and tho anatomical lessons are diflerent one from the other. Typhus, however, has formed one of the groat factors in producing the miseries and deaths in tho years up to the nineteenth century, sometimes, in wide-spread epidemics, often in isolated towns or places.

As an example of the former, there was tho typhus.following the seven years' war and the famine 1761 and 1772, when all Europe was visited with it, and that later period when Ireland was devastated in 1797 to 1802 by the famine fever following tho destruction of the crops; as an example of the fever in isolated towns, that famous outbreak of typhus at Oxford in 1577, known as the Black Assize, when, within a few hours, all who had been in the fatal court-room, perished from the disease. Happily now these terrible pestilences are, in a great measure, under control. Scurvy, that made fearful ravages among the mariners, has been blotted out by tho sanitarian, and there are few physicians of the present day that have ever seen a ease of it. Small-pox is under if tho people will allow tho sanitfeMan to vaccinate. The knowledge of thtfJwuse of a spread oJ typhoid fever, cholera, diphtheria, and yellow fever, gives health boards the opportunity to prevent wide-spread devastation from those diseases, and it is quite within the possibilities that within a not remote period, they will all bo as much under sanitary co'htrol as tho scurvy and small-pox, and become classed among tho extinct disorders in medical history.
