Chicago, Nov. 14.— finishing blowo the strike of 25.000 stockyards employes

iras given to-night and the strike isrirtually a thing of the past. A massmeeting ofthe Knights of Labor assemblies

»afo!ved was held in Germania hall to-night.

(nearly three thousand men crowded each

r»ther in the narrow space and gave evi-

ience of tho greatest excitement. Theaieeting had not been long in progress

hen the question was put to the assem-Mage: "Shall the order of General MasterWorkman Powderly be obeyed and thestrike ended?" A large element refrained*rom voting, and only 363 men gave tokenjfobedience. There were just 1.142 angry

t-oices of dissent. Barry and Carleton. whowere on the platform, refused to take the

vote as the sense of the meeting andPLEADED FOB A RECONSIDERATION.

They declared earnestly that 1, 142 votesshould not be allowed to keep 25,000 men

from work and from obedience to the high-»st authority in the Knights of Labor.Gradually the two leaders gained sway overtbe multitude, and by another vote it wasdeclared that the vote should not be re-garded as decisive. Then Carleton andLarry flung themselves into the breach theyhad created, and with eloquent words ap-pealed to the sober judgment of the men.argued with their self-interest, and picturedthe horrors almost inevitable should theypersist in refusal. The speakers carriedthe meeting by storm. When the last wordhad been spoken a unanimous vote was

taken to obey the order of Powderly and re-

sume work to-morrow. A feature of themeeting was the assurance given the men

by Barry that they would ali sooner orlater secure the places they had quit.

THE MAIN POINT

made by Barry and Carleton was thatobedience was necessary to prevent disrup-tion of the Knights ot Labor organization

in Chicago. In putting the final questionwhether to obey or not, the form wasaltered so that the men in adopting the reso-lution return to work as commanded, butdo it under protest. The Packers' associa-tion will hold a meeting to-morrow to de-vise some method for future protection.

EARLIER IN THE DAY.

Itis said that the radical element of thestrikers sent a number of very se\ere tele-grams to day to Powderly. expressing dis-trust at bis interference and intimating thatbe bad belter revoke the mandate and letthem help themselves. T. B. Barry, of theKnights of Labor general executive board,

said to day that lie believed the men wouldgo to work to-morrow and that the strikewas a*, an end. lie had great hopes thatthe non-unionists would all leave the pack-ing houses in a short time, and in this wayill the striking Knights could obtain theirold positions. This afternoon he visited ailthe assemblies that he could, urging themto comply with the order and return towork. Return. to his hotel he and Mr.Carleton. another member .of the general

executive board, hail a long interview withthe police officials. This was said to be to-wards preserving harmony to-morrow andarranging for the old committees of theKnights to assist the police in maintainingorder while the men were obtaining places.The interview was evidently a pleasantone. Only two assemblies of Knights

of Labor are known to have re-fused to ratify the Powderly order. Thefirst was the coopers, under the lead oftheirmaster workman. George Schilling. TheOther assembly is that known as the mixedassembly, the master workman of which isM. S. Butler, the man who gave the orderto strike. A meeting of the packers andtheir foremen was held to-day at Armour'sto prepare for

THE RETURN OF THK MEN

to-morrow. It was decided to take tlrngscoolly and s'owlv until matters were mov-ing along satisfactorily. Shortly after themeeting a placard was issued headed"General Order No. I,*' and signed bySheriff llaucheit. The order stated thatthe employes of the various packing-bousesdesiring to return to work would report atplaces designated, the men of each of thehouses being given a separate local. Onthe strike being ended the manager of eachbouse will report at the place designated,and with the assistance of the foreman se-lect such men as they desiredto lave come to work on that orany other day. giving to each man a passwith the name of the firm stamped uponit, which pass will admit him within themilitia picket lines. Afterhaving selectedall the men they desire the managers willrequest the balance to return home and re-port again at the same place on any daythat may be named by the manager. Afterthis had been posted in public places, othermanifestos on wrapping paper appearedadvising the strikers to remain out Theforemen of the houses made some of theirselections duiing the afternoon, and issuedpasses to choice mechanics, those havingfamilies being the most tavured. There isa general anticipation of a great deal oftrouble to-morrow and for several weeks tocome. About the only disorder reportedto-day was at Forty-eighth and Loomisstreets. Nelson Morris, the packer, hadsent a milk wagon from his establishmentto the depot to get some milk. A mob ofhoodlums surrounded it They cut loosethe horses, roughly handled the two menin the wagon, overturned the conveyance,and turned the milk into the gutter. Threemen were arrested for the offense. NeitherMr. Barry nor Mr. Carlton received anydispatches from the Knight's general execu-tive board to-day. They will remain inChicago until Wednesday at least

Th* Chicago *» rade- Assembly Ad-

vise* (lie Mriken to Disobey It mi.

Chicago, Nov. 14. —The indecision ofthe strikers last night, whether or not toobey the order to return to work, led to

serious complications to-day. A specialmeeting of the Chicago Trades assemblybad some time ago been called for thisafternoon, the understanding being thataction would be taken in regard to boycot-ting Armour. Powderly order had ledmany of the delegates to believe this morn-

ing that the object of the meeting had beenremoved, but President Rowan had scarcely

rapped the assembly to order when GeorgeSchilling, a locally prominent socialisticagitator, precipited a general discuss.on ofPowderiy's order, the attitude of the strikersand what action should be taken. It wassoon developed that there was a very strongopposition in the assembly to Powderlysorder, aud, strangely enough, the opposi-tion all came from delegates who are

Knights, while those who were tradesunionists almost unanimously favoredobedience, many of them on the groundthat discipline ought to be maintainedamong the Knights, and others on theground that Powderiy's order was

THB ONLY RATION THING

be could 00 in the premises. Schilling in-

troduced a resolution empowering the ex- iecutive committee of the Trades' assembly.acting as a joint committee, to hold them- jselves in readiness, and, whenever called jon by the executive committee of the strik- jers, to investigate affairs at the stock yards |and act with the strikers and assist them tnany way possible. This resolution wasunderstood to mean that the strikers wouldnot obey the Powderly order and that the !Trades* assembly would aid and abet themin disobeying. Richard Powers, ex-presi-dent of the Seamen's union, declared thePowderly order arbitrary and dictatorial.The strikers, the men on the grounds^ heasserted, were in the best position to decideOB the proper course, and they were in favorof continuing the strike. If any outsidepressure was brought to bear to enforce theorder it would result in a division in theKnights of Labor, the destruction of thatorganization in this part of the country andthe crippling of its influence throughoutthe land. It was in vain that the opponentsof the resolution pointed out that disobed-ience to Powderiy's order would be just asdestructive to the Knights. Schilling andPowers carried their point. The assemblythen immediately adjourned. The treatstrike was also the chief topic of discussionin the Central Labor union. Resolutions!were adopted tendering the strikers the jsympathy and substantial support of the Iunion.

Philadelphia, Nov. 14. The Recordto-morrow will say: Although the newmanagement or* the (-tending Railroad com-pany has only had control of the propertyabout a mouth a searching investigationinto the affairs of the company has beenconducted, and already means have beendiscovered by which retrenchment will beeffected "amounting to .2 000.000 perannum. This economy wili tind expressionin the most marked degree in the manage-ment of the l_le Iron company. which willbe made to yield a revenue insteadof being a drag on the company's re-sources. President Corbin. finding that theSchuylkill valley is admirably adapted tothe manufacture of iron, has arranged toreserve proportions from manufacturers ofiron for the lease of the thirty-seven fur-naces it; that valley owned by tne ReadingCoal and Iron company. Two of tbesefurnaces will be taken possession by capi-talists at an early day, ami very soon there-after it is hoped the others will be taken upand put in operation. The policy of peacewith other companies, which President Cor-bin has determined upon, it is also thought

will result iv increasing the revenues of thecompany.

Regardingcoaching, be thought it would be restricted,as all respectable limits bad been over-stepped.

Satisfactory Sugar "flaking.

Washington, Nov. 14.— Wiley,the chemist of the agricultural department,who is at Fort Scott. Kan., conducting anexperiment in sugar making from Louisianasugar cane by the diffusion process, tele- :graphs the commissioner of agriculture that ihis first estimate of the result*was too low. !He finished swinging the second Louisiana"strike" yesterday. The yield of eighty-three tons of cane was 11,100 pounds, or154 pounds per ton of "first*'sugar of finequality. This he considers a phenomenalyield, being, as he states, about double theordinary yield obtained by the old millingprocess with tbe same kind of cane.

Tardy Returns From Two Minnesota_ounties--Missouri's Legislature

and Other Politics.

The Globe yesterday secured the re-turns from Lac gui Parle and Isanti coun-ties, and is able to give, this morning, theofficial vote of the state as canvassed bythe county returning boards and sent to thesecietary of state. The total vote cast was220.479, of which McGill,received 100,966.Ames. 104.483. and Child 9,030, the lastbeing nearly a thousand less than the esti-mate made by the Globe a week ago, thethirty counties reporting late giving Mr.Child much less than the average in thefirst fifty. In fact, several of the newcounties did not cast vote for him. Mr.McGill's plurality turns out to be a trifleless than 2,500. That of Mr. Rise, 16.813.is doubtless considerably above that ofanybody else on the ticket as he had hiscolleagues in all heavy Scandinavian com-munities. For instance, in Kandiyohicounty, where Mr. Kice lives. Mr. Frankhardly got any votes at all.

"Can the Democracy carry tho state in*88?" was asked.

"Itdepends on the candidates."-"Wiih Cleveland?""If he had beeu running: the first of No-

Iftheeffect of the home-rule billwere effaced amithe people taught that the law meant justicefor rich and poor alike, the victory wouldbe won.

Gen. Sheridan Submit* His AnnualI..port — Susrcestions Regrardiiifi:I lie Indiana.Washington, Nov. —Lieut. Gen.

Sheridan has submitted to the secretary ofwar his annual report, showing the opera-tions of the military forces during the pastyear. From the report it appears that atthe data of the List returns the army of theUnited States consisted of 8.109 officersand 23,940 men. Under the head of thedivision of the Atlantic, the lieutenant gen-eral refers feelingly to the death of Gen.Hancock, He says that no military opera-tions ofimportance have occurred in thisdivision during the year. The rec-ommendation heretofore made by Gen.Schotield and his predecessor rela-tive to the early concentration atsome suitable point of several light bat-teries for their better instruction is re-newed and attention called to the fortifica-tion and armament of our sea coasts lyingalong the Atlantic ocean. The lieutenantgeneral says that while the division of theMissouri has had no troubles approachinga condition of hostilities during the year,many operations of a minor nature havebeen rendered necessary to suppress preda-tory raids in Montana by Indians from onereservation directed mainly against Indianson other reservations, to protect the Indianagents from insolence and insubordinationof their charges, and

TO SECURE SETTLERS

from the lawless demands of roving bandswho have been permitted, on one pretext oranother, to leave their reservations.

The adjustment made with the Cheyennesaud Arapahoes by the president, throughthe medium of the lieutenant general, inJuly, 1.55. has allayed all irritation iv theIndian Territory, but the troops in thatregion have been kept constantly employedin the preventing of unlawful settlementsin the Oklahoma couutry, and its invasio \u25a0

by herds of cattle. Unless some legis-lation is had whicii will speciallyfix the status of the Oklahomaland, he fears its many advantages ivthe way of beautiful landscapes and fertilesoil willprove a continual temptation to anadventurous population uear its border,which in a short period could make it a pros-perous state. Reports from the Uintah andOuray Indian agencies in Utah, where thesituation last winter was threatening, indi-cate that the agent is now satisfied and theIndians have ceased their insolence andappear willing to behave themselves. Innoting the abandonment of Fort Fred Steeland Fort Ellis, the lieutenant general says,it is his desire to persevere in the policy of

ABANDONINGSMALLPOSTSthat are no longer useful. Under head ofthe Division of the Pacific, after alludingto the preservation of peace by the promptarrival of the troops at points where anti-Chinese riots were threatened, Sheridanturns bis attention to the Geronimo cam-paign. He states that it was bis idea to re-move to Florida the Indians held as prison-ers by Gen. Crook last November, but thathe deferred sucti action upon the recom-mendations of Gen. Crook and Capt. Craw-ford. Touching the death of Capt. Craw-ford ata time when negotiations had beenopened with the hostile Indians at their so-licitation, with a view of their surrender,Gen. Sheridan says: "The loss of Capt.Crawford was much to be regretted, as hewould, in my opinion, have at that time ter-minated the cruel and bloody atrocities,which continued thereafter for manymonths." The report then relates in detailthe circumstances attending the qualifiedsurrender of Geronimo to Gen. Crook uponterms which were not approved by the presi-dent and the subsequent escape of the chiefwith twenty warriors and thirteen women.Touching

THE RELIEF OF GEN. CROOKand his replacement by Gen. Miles, thegeneral says that it grew out of the factthat Gen. Crook seemed wedded to thepolicy of operating almost exclusively withIndian scouts and as his experience was ofgreat weight, his policy could not bechanged without his removal to an-other field. Gen. Miles went towork with commendable zeal. His troops

followed up the hostiles with vigorousenergy, broke up their camps by attackfour or five times and gave them no restuntil they surrendered on Sept. 4 undercircumstances and conditions, however,

that should not in my judgment, permittheir being turned over to the civil authori-ties for punishment, as was intended bythe president ' On Sept. 8 they werestarted by Gen. Miles to Fort Marion, Fla.,

without "authority, but at a later datestopped at San Antonio till their final dis-position could be decided upon. The re-port states that the arrest of the ChiricahuaIndians and their removal to Florida hadbeen ordered by the president, notwith-standing the objections of Gen. Miles thatit might be charged that the governmenthad taken advantage of the Indians andthat such action would necessitate a war ofextermination agaiust the hostiles then inold Mexico. The report notes a markeddecrease in the

NUMBER OF DESERTERSfrom the army during the past year, ascompared with preceding years. Thepercentage of desertions in 18S4 was 15,

iv 1885 11. and during the past year 8.3.On this subject the lieutenant general says:

"The great decrease since 1884 Is due uodoubt to the improvement of administrationand to thebeneflcient legislation which pro-vide, for honorable retirement of enlistedmen after long and faithful service." Hesuggests that a law be passed permitting themarking of convicted deserters with Indiaink 60 that they may be known when theypresent themselves for re-iulistment. Thereport states that the army generally is ina very healthy and gratifying condition, andthe discipline excellent, but few officer,have been tried by court-martial during thyear, and the opinion is expressed that ther ehasnot been a period in twenty-five year wbe aso little necessity has existed for the correc-tion of those holding commissions. It is sug-gested that congress open the entire list tothe extent of embracing officers now ex-cluded from itfor want of vacancies. Gen.Sheridan says: "This would give a certain de-gree of promotion, and if we could get theinfantry regiments iacrea.ed to twelvecompanies, as proposed by the Mandcrsonbill, and the increase of 6,000 men reportedfavorably by the senate military committeelast winter, a state of efficiency and useful-aess would be reached which would enable {us to creditably perform such service as " the !country mightdemand." The report shows ;

that tbe instruction of the army in the use of \u25a0

* THE RIFLI OR CARBINEwith which the men are armed has beenthoroughly prosecuted during the year, and

the returns from each department, as well asthe results of the regular competitions justclosing, exhibit a decided improvement in theproficiency of the army in rifle firing. Thegeneral renews his recommendation made inhis preceding report, touching the allotmentof the land in severalty to Indians, the saleof surplus lands and the creation of atrust fund from the money . realized,the interest on which shall be turned over to

the Indians for their support. The. reportsays: "Considering all the Indians and reser-vations in the territories of Dakota and Mon-tana we have an aggregate area of over 54,---500.000 acres, and a population of less than45,000. The surplus area of nearly 81,000square mile 3(almost equal to the entire stateof Kansas), would produce an annualinterest of over $2,500,000. The appro-priations for the fiscal year endingJune 30. 18S6, for fulfillingtreaties with thesetribes, and for tbeir subsistence and civiliza-tion, and the pay of the employes incident tosuch undertaking amounts to about $100,000less than this sum." In like manner the re-sult of the application of the plan in thedifferent Western states and territories isshown in detail, and the report concludes asfollows:

"THE INDIANRESERVATIONSof the United States contaiu about 200,000square miles, and their population is about260,000. Twenty-six thousand square mileswould locate each family upon a half sectionof land, and leaving a surplus of about 170,000square miles which, according to the plan Ihave proposed, would produce annuaily$4,480,000. This amount exceeds by about$6.0.000 the entire sum appropriated for thepayment of their annuities and for their sub-sistance and civilization. The policy advo-cated in my report would be most advan-tageously applied gradually by the generalgovernment."

INDIANTERRITORY.Chief Bushyhead frees a Political

Combination of All the Tribes.Washington, Nov. 14. —The interior

department to-day received a copy of thefourth annual message of Hon. D. W.Bushyhead. principal chief of the Cherokeenation, Indian Territory, to the nationalcouncil, sitting at Tahlcquah, Nov. 21,18S6. He says, among other things:

1 deem it my duty to invite your attentionto the subject of a proposed confederation ofthe nations and tribes of the territory, withthe hope that you willtake some action of adefinite character looking to the formation ofan international government, clothed withsuch functions and powers as it may deemproper to confer upon it. The importance,not to sar necessity, for such action is sug-gested by the fact that there are bills beforecongress providing for the erection of a terri-tory of the United States out _f the so called

NO MAN'S LAND,with portions of tho Indian territory as maybe included by the consent of the tribes re-siding thereon. Thus an insidious schemefor invading and dismembering the territoryis sought to be carried out, which, in myopinion, could be defeated in advance by theunion of the tribes in a confederation throughwhich they would act together on all questionsinvolving the interests of nil. Such an organ-

ization would not only conserve the interestsof the whole territory, but it would commandthe respect of the people and the government

of the United States. The danger and thepower of the white man lies chiefly in biscombination of forces. It behooves us toprofit by the example. The Indian territory,occupied by thirty tribes, each as in the oldendays distinct from the others, invites inva-sion of their rights from the selfish and un-scrupulous. The Indian territory with thethirty tribes bound together by constitutionalcompact into one federal body politic would,in my opinion, be able, by virtue of the moralforce such a union would exert, and by thecombined wisdom and united action of all, toresist all schemes for the dismemberment ofour country aud invasion of our political andother rights.

INTERNAL. REVENUE REPORT.

An Elaborate Statement, Financialand Otherwise, by the Commis-sioner.Washington, Nov, 14. —The commis-

sioner of internal revenue has published hisannual report to the secretary of the treas-ury. It is an elaborate document of 115printed pages and gives a detailed accountof the operations of the internal revenueservice during the past fiscal year as com-pared with previous years. The total re-ceipts from all sources of internal revenuetaxation for the fiscal year ended June 30,18.6, were 5116.902,809. as compared with3112,421,121 for the year 1885. $121,590,---039 for the year 1884, $144,553,344 for theyear 1883, and $146,523,273 for the year1882. A . statement of withdrawals forconsumption during the past year, as com-pared with the preceding year, shows alarge increase of all articles of taxationexcept snuff, of which there was a decreaseof $195,747. The principal increasewas in cigars, cigarettes andspirits distilled from grain. Thecost of collection during the yearwas $4,299,485, being about 3.6 per cent, ofthe amount collected. The collectionsduring the previous year cost $4,455,430, or3.9 per cent, of the amount collected. Thereceipts during the first three months ofthe present fiscal year were $28,904,904. anincrease of $230,441 over the receipts duringthe correspond period of last year. Theincrease was mostly on tobacco and fer-mented liquors, although there was asmall

INCREASE IN THE RECEIPTSfrom spirits distilled from apples, peachesor grapes. The principal decrease was inthe tax on spirits distilled from materialsother than apples, peaches or grapes and inthe special retail liquor dealers' tax. It isestimated that $118,000,000 will be col-lected during the current fiscal year fromthe various sources of internal revenue. Inmaking this estimate Commissioner Millersays his oflice is much embarrassed by thepresence of a new source of revenue (oleo-margarine), and the entire absence of anystatistical information as to the quantitymanufactured, the number of factories en-gaged in its production and the number ofpersons or firms engaged in selling the sameas wholesale and retail dealers. It wasestimated that the receipts for the last fiscalyear would be not less than $115,000,000.The actual receipts exceed that sum by$1,902,869. Eight hundred and sixty-eightviolations of internal revenue law havebeen reported by revenue agents during theyear, 637 persons have been arrested onthe information, property to the value of$136,805 has been reported by them forseizure and $124,020 for assessment for un-paid taxes and penalties. The number ofillicitstills seized during the year was 564and the number of persons employedtherein arrested was 1,214. The seizureswere principally in Georgia, North Caro-lina, Tennessee, Kentucky and Virginia.

The amount expended for tbe year in de-tecting and punishing persons forVIOLATIONSOF INTERNALREVENUE LAWSwas $42,561. Property to the value of$286,982 was seized during the year forviolations of the law. The estimated ex-penses for the next fiscal year amount to$4,486,440, of which $1,900,000 is for sal-aries and expenses of collectors, $1,950,000for salaries and expenses of revenue agents,surveyors, storekeepers, etc., and $266,440for salaries and officers and employes ofthe commissioner's office. The estimatesfor salaries of collectors are based on an es-timate of their probable collections. Theestimate for the commissioner's office in-clude an appropriation for an additionalchief of division and increase of force ren-dered necessary by the oleomargarine law.The number of stamps issued during the jyear was 550.061,029, and their value $135,112.305. The aggregate amount of taxescollected from tobacco during ; thefiscal year was $27,907,362. Thisincludes internal . revenue taxesimposed on imported manufactured tobaccoand snuff and on cigars and cigarettes. Theincrease of collections for the last fiscal yearover those for the previous year was frommanufactured tobacco, $865,025; cigars andcigarettes. $581,550; special taxes. $53,698.The production account shows an increasein manufactured tobacco of 10.798,286pounds, in the number of cigars and ciga-rettes of 433.507,242. in tobacco exportedof 29,369,220. The number of cigarsimported during the fiscal year ended June30. 1886, was 73, 139, 078. The value of the Imanufactured tobacco imported was $68,---939. The amount of direct tax still due is$2,568,929.
