THE WANDERING REPORTER. [Fro: , 1 ourdiegular correspondenal k rrE, M. T., April 2. STAICV ON IN SCOTLAND. \Thousan of crofters starving who ought t , be living on the land now given up to deer.\ This is the terrible cry *hick) comes over the ocean from t 4 land of the immortal .. Burns. In land a deer is, in the eyes of the authorities, a far more precious animal than a man. A per- son who kills a deer without leave from the landlord is prOsecuted and severely pan'shed—a landlord who . _ starves or exterminates a thousand crofters is answerable to no law. But the outrageouS system cannot hold much longer. It is rapidly nearing its end. The Scotch crofters have determined to no longer tamely sub- mit to being , driven from their humble homes to make room for wild aaimals. i Scotland for Scotch - men and Sco h lands for the Scotch bi people are g rung into the ears of the lordlyland tyrants, and the Liberal party. --the coming party of power in Grist Britain—are echoing 7 the cry. The doom of landlordism, which makes:deserts of fertile fields and desolated the homes of human beings, is faatsipproaching. A Lon- don scoundrel named Scully owns over 100,000 acres of land in the - great state of Illinois which he bought over, thirty years ago for *1.25 per ac upon which a race of crofters or ons exist who are placed in most a similar posi- tion to their ecetch brethren. Great God! and thia is free America. THE WELSH TITHE WAR. The past ., season has witnessed more scenes of disorder and blood- shed among e hills of Wales than has beeu k n among them since the birth o nat. ' The collection of tithes fo parsons of the church of Eliglaietlis the cause of such scenes. The:Church of England is not the elnikh of the people of Wales. The great majority of them beton , - ' ligious communions and t ey protest againstbeing callea upon to pay for the support of a re- ligion which is notabeirs. A Welsh \Anti -Tithe Association\ has been formed and the Welsh farmers have signed a pledge f that they will pay no more tithes to the parsons. At their manifesto they state the fact that the population of Wales is about 1,500,000, and that only 300,- 000 belong to the established church. But Catholic, Methodist, Presby- terian, Wesleyan, Unitarian, C'on- gregationalist or Jew, it makes ) no difference. British law compels them to support the clergy of the Protestant Established church. Over one million of the . Welsh people compelled to pay for the maintain- ance of the church of the small mi- nority! The thing is a monstrous injustice. The Mormons in Utah and other Territories pay tithes, or a tenth of - what they produce to the Mormon church. It is hard for fair-minded Amer- icans to understand why ministers of the gospel, when they know by such evidence as is given them every hour in the day that they are im- posters and thieves because they are forcibly taking from people what is nothing less than blackmail, if they have any consideration at all for God's commandments which they are supposed to teach and expound, should not themselves refuse to ac- cept money from the Welch by such means as are usually employed. But, no; the most active in extorting the blackmail are the parsons theniselves. The English Tory press asserts thot of the three agrarian agitations in Ireland, Scotland and Wales the . last is by far the most destitute of moral justification, as its chances of success are the most hopeless.\ : The old Cymric blood, . however, is roused, and the \Welsh like the Irish and Scotch have Gladstone and all liberals on their side. All through the several districts of Wales, watch is kept night and day for English tax or tithe gatherers. 'Mounted pickets patrol the roads and signal guns are fired at the approac:i of parties suspected of being such officials. The spirit displayed is so fierce that even the women have become imbued with it, and in one case lately the women at- tacked a body of bailiffs with pitch. forks and other weapons and chased them as far as a river four miles dis- tant, over which the fugitives swam, and thus escaped from their pur- suers. The Welsh deserve encour- agement and support not alone from their own kindred in other lands, but from all who sympatize with struggles for justice and liberty. COERCION IN IRELAND. The practical workings of the co- ercion act are well illustrated by what took place recently in Mayo county. Fourteen girls between the ages of ten and thirteen, an old man of eighty and an old woman of sev- enty, all handcuffed, - were on their way to prison, guarded by two bun- -red policemen. A crowd of sym- pathizers, headed by a clergyman, who was a college chum of mine a quarter of a century ago, went out to meet them. The police charged upon the crowd and wielded their batons brutally. Heads were broken and blood flowed freely. After such an interruption the procession moved on to the prison to receive the inno- cent young girls and the old couple, who were tottering on the verge of the grave. - These formidable ene- mies of the British empire were ac- cused of the heinous crime of ob- structing a bailiff, which meant shouting; and of illegal assembly, which meant that they dared look even at him n while he was seizing some sheep belonging to tenants who would not pay the blackmail levied upon them. This single ap- plication of the coercion act, as writ- ten me by an old fellow -student, gives readers of the SENTINEL an idea of how far-reaching and how all - embracing it is. There is scarcely anything that the Irish people can do or abstain from doing that :an not be brought under the provisions of an act that was framed with the object of waging a savage war on the Irish people. The autocratic rule of the czar of Russia is far preferable to Salisbury's Irish salvation scheme. Think of those two hundred \peel- ers\ or policemen charging upon that Irish crowd because it dared to express its sympathy with thoselit. nocent victims of the infaxions, clfea bolical coercion act! The brutal police struck right and left, regard- less of where their blows fell. They cared nothing for sex or age. They could give free play to their savage instincts. And behind those savage brutes is a government calling itself civilized that approves their acts and justifies them in the sacred name of law and order! The bayonet of the soldier and the bludgeon of the po- liceman are the real rulers of Ire- land. If the tories can have their way brute force will rule. The jails will be packed with innocent victims of the infamous coercion act, and the tools of Dublin castle will con- tinue to wreak their vengeance. The leopard might as well be expected to change his spots as to expect the tories to lay aside their deep-seated hatred of Ireland and \Irish rebels,\ as theyare pleased to term nearly all the natives of the green isle. Once before an English minister— Lord North — denounced bitterly \Irish rebels,\ especially Montgom- ery, who fell fighting for his repub- lic and against British despotism, on the heigh to of Quebec. The Lord Salisbury of that day said that the gallant general was \only a rebel,\ and added, \A curse on his virtues.\ But there was found even in London parliament, where those expressions were uttered, an English statesman who bravely defended the dead hero and rebuked his insulter. It was Charles James Fox, who said, and Salisbury of the present will do well to remember his words: \The name of rebel is no disgrace. All the great asserters of liberty, the saviors of their country, the benefactors of mankind in all ages, have been called \rebels.\ Baby Bunting Again. One of the greatest literary hits of the season is the story of \Baby Bunting; or the Alphabet of Love,\ by Laura Jean Libbey, which is at present being pub- lished in the columns of the New York Family Story Paper. The paper contain- ing the opening chapters of this wonder- fully popular romance appeared on the news stands this morning. The tremen- dous rush for that number by the young ladies of the town shows clearly that the publishers have struck a bonanza. The Family Story Paper is for sale by all newsdealers, or will be sent to any address four months, postage free, for ;1.00. Norman L. Munro, Publisher,.24 and 26 Vandewater street, New York.

The Strike on the Burlington Extend- ing to other Reads—For the first time an Eastern Road Is Involved. Cowan°, March 31.—The rumor that a tie-up of the Chicago, Milwau- kee & St. Paul railway was decided on at a late meeting of the strikers last night proves true. The engin- eers, firemen, switchmen and brake- men and a number of conductors of that railway c have quit work. The strike includes the employes on all divisions centering in Chicago, both freight and passenger. The last pas- sengertrain manned by a Brother- hood crew left the Union depot at 11 last night. At the meeting held last night, which fully 700 St. Paul employes attended, a motion was made to tie up the road, and carried, without a dissenting vote. The strike was not declared by any organiza- tion or the Brotherhood, at least not formally. The men say it was en- tirely an individual action on their part. A FIGHT TO THE FINISH. The Chicago, Burlington & Quin- cy railway is determined to call to- day on the Fort Wayne, Lake Shore, Rock Island, Illinois Central, and perhaps the Alton, for assistance in raising the freight. blockade in its yards. This, it claims, it has the right to do under the inter -state com- merce law, and the roads called up- on are liable to damages if they re- fuse, The Fort Wayne and Lake Shore officials have announced that they will haul Burlington cars if called on to do so. The Rock Is- land has already refused to take sides with the Burlington. What the others will do when called on is a matter or conjecture, but it is un- derstood they will unite for mutual protection and make A FIGHT TO BREAK DOWN the influence of the Brotherhood and Switchmen's Union. The moment the engineers, firemen and switch- men on other roads are asked to as- aist in moving \Q\ freight, they will strike. Thus the chances are favor- able for a general railroad tie-up on lines converging in Chicago. The brotherhood switchmen and brake- men on all the roads are now work- ing harmoniously, and they appear as determined to win at. the railroad companies. This is practically the situation to -day: Chairman Hoge, of the grievance committee of the Bur- lington road, virtually admitted this morning that the engineers, firemen and switchmen of three, and per- haps four, other roads would go out some time to -day, thus precipitating one of the greatest strikes ever known in Chicago. The roads marked for a strike are the Alton, Fort Wayne, Panhandle, Rock Is- land and the Santa Fe. WHAT MILLER SAYS. MILWAUKEE, March 31.—General Manager Miller. of the St. Paul rail- way, said this morning the trouble with their men was still confined to Chicago. The Chicago engine dis- patchers joined the ranks of the dis- affected, and before their places could be filled some delay to pas- senger trains at the Chicago terminus was caused. About 200 employes of the company have quit work at Chi- cago. We are getting new dis- patchers to supply the places of those who stopped work, and all passenger trains, except those of the early morning, are about on time. We are running as many freight trains as we can take care of in Chicago. The St. Paul is in the market for freight, both at Chicago and Milwau- kee. On all other divisions of the road trains are running as usual. I do not believe there will be any fur- ther trouble. THE FORT WAYNE SHY. PITTSBURG, March 31.—The rail- way officials of the Pennsylvania company have been watchMg the Burlington very closely the past few days. Their lines, including the Fort Wayne road, are not handling Q freight, and every effort is being made to keep the strike from spread- ing among their employes, as it has been rumored was contemplated. An official who was seen to -day said: \Our reports ;row Chicago state that everything is serene on the Fort Wayne road. We do not know what to expect however. None of the Burlington freight is being handled by us. It would not be po- 1 Hey to do so. While it may he there are a few stray Burlington Cars on the Fart Wayne between. Pittsburg and C4icage, but if there arfe, they were the ones that were take', when it was supposed the strike Was set- tled. With the strike asstiming a more serious phase, we will not re- ceive any \Q\ freight, and it! , fact, I do not think ally will be offered us.\ a STRIKE FOLLOWING STRIKE in rapid succession was the result to -day of the Burlington road's first attempt to resume forcing freight on other roads. Although at the very outset a strike occurred on the Fort Wayne system, involving for the first time the undoubted extension of the trouble to roads leading east from Chicago. , The St. Paul road has been completely tied up :between midnight and daylight, and Chair- man Hoge, the leader of the Broth; erhood in the absence of Chief Ar- thur, intimated early that before an- other midnight there might be pre- cipitated a succession of strikes un- paralleled in the city. Ono on the Panhandle occurred as early as 7 a. m., but was ovelicome by tire' officials showing that no workman had been asked to handle Burlington. cars. At 10 a. tn. the Burlington miide up a train of fifteen cars, which was quick- ly transferred to the Fort Wayne road. While at the same time ta en- ty-five cars were made up andstarted for the Lake Shore road, with forty PINKERTON MEN ABOARD. The transfer, hoWever, was made_ without disturbance. At 2 p.m. the Ft. Wayne official's ordered a switch- ing crew to take a \Q\ train from the siding at the Sixteerth street and place it on the Ft. Wayne tracks. The men promptly refused and ran their engine in. • The I4VS . :spread and in a few moments allithe crews in the yards quit work ---engineers, firemen and switchmen. !Just then the 2:20 Ft. Wayne passek2,-er train, outward bound, came along at Six- teenth street. The en4inoer and fireman learned of the strike and left the engine. - Tivz coodil . ctyr soon ,volunteered to run the - e'ri itl#`,a fire- man was found and the !train pro- ceeded after a slight - delay. The Ft. Wayne dispatchers say they have assurances from other passenger en- gineers that they would n t go out, but not a great deal of ependence is placed on them. i ! Along the 1The of 64 Sit. Paul road freight business vatial paralyzed, t and passenger traffic alino t suspend- ed. As soon as the inbou (.1nassen- ,. get trains reached the ylepot and were unloaded the engineers backed them out to Western avenue and abandoned them. - This afternoon the eng n iletars, lire - men! and switchmen o t,ie ,4St. Paul road held a meeting and Sent &coin-. mittee to Superintendedt _ . :Earling. They stated to him that they would i a agree to handle empty Initt not load- ed \Q\ cars. Earling-asked them to submit their preposition :in writing, and agreed to forward it to General Manager Miller, at Milwextkee. Fif- ty men, said to be regelat freight and passenger conduc,rs, on the Council Bluffs division qt the road, arrived here this niorp ii14, havitig been brought by the St. , anl Pec+145- to fill the places . of the: striking switchmen, but after lt brief 'talk' with the leader of the S. rout strik- ers, decided that not a frnan would throw a switch. 1 IN Ban SIIAP* . During the day as many as a dozen men called on the may- with com- plaints against the Chicago Burling- ton & Quincy -managera.
