Lommix, April IS. Tho movement In favor of a simultaneous inter-nation-labor demonstration on tho 1st of May is assumiug formidable proportions, and, as far as numbers is concerned, is already an assured success in Eng-land, France, Uerniany, Italy, Hun-gary, Belgium, Holland and Spain. Tho idea was lirst suggested by a Bel-gian delegate who attended the interna-tional Trades congress in St. Andrew's hall, London, in November, 188S, aud a resolution was then passed in favor of setting aside tho 1st of May, every year, for universal labor parades. The scheme, however, got Into socialistic hands and thereby became a suspect in tho eyes of British trades union leaders, so that little came of 11 last year. Since tliou, however, tho movement In favor of an eight hour working day has made such enormous strides that workmen leaders are beginniug to real-ize lhat if they do not fall into lino with tho industrial masses upon this question tlioy w ill iiud themselves stranded high and dry above tho mtiiu current of pop-ular opinion. Tho Dockers' Union promises to send 80,000 men to join in the parade, and contingents from other organizations of unskilled labor will probably bring tho total gathering in Hyde, Park May 1 up to 200,000. The demonstration will bo held simultaneously in many of the largo provincial towns, aud tho or-ganizers estimate the grand total for England at nearly 500.0JO. Jules (iuisdo, who lias charge of tho movement in France, promises to have 200,000 workmen ou parade. Belgium pledges itself to 250,000; Holland, if the police will permlt.to 100,000; (ierniauy, by tho grace of Kaiser Wilhelm, to G30,-00- Italy to 100,000, and Spain to 50,000. lu this country the demonstration Is looked forward to with characteristic equanimity, but upon tho continent some trouble may result, Kaiser Wilhelm has uol made up his mind whether or not to prohibit the in-dustrial parade. In Paris tho aristo-crats and bourgeoise scent socialism and are calling upon the government to bo prepared with horse, fool and artil-lery to preserve law and order; In Italy thero is danger that tho distressed unemployed may make themselves un-pleasantly conspicuous and there is reason to believe that Slgnor Crispi has resolved to suppress tho demonstution in Rome at any rate, In Spain and Holland, and to some extent in Belgium, the movement is re-garded as socialistic and disturbances may' be considered unhappily certain unless tho authorities behave with more forbearance than they have hitherto done. .", -. :' -. ,, revenue; that in all eases except tin an increased tariff w ill result in decreased importations, and therefore a decreased revenuo; that the committee aimed to put an increased rate on manufactured goods and farm products pro-ducible iu this country, in order to de-velops home market; that the commit-tee is not so much concerned about tho prices of the articles we consume as to encourage the increase aud diversifica-tion of home products, giving fair re-turns to producers and wages to Amer-ican workmen. Believing that homo competition will regulato prices, the committee admits that free trado would cause a temporary reduction in prices, but arguo it would be at tho expense of domestic producers aud that prices would Ihcu advance with the country at the mercy of for-eign syndicates and manufactur-ers, and the ultimate result would thus bo disadvantageous to both capital and labor. Tho com-mittee says that tho country is least prosperous iu which low prices and wagon prevail, and point to tho present agricultural depression as a sample. The committee believes it better to raise the $400,000,000 necessary to run the government by taking foreign imports than take it from domestic products. That tho entire bill is based upon pro-tection to American industry, but at the same time recommending no duty above the point of difference between tho nor-mal cost of production here, including labor and the cost of like production abroad. The report then takes up the details of the bill and says tho reduc-tion in revenues from placing on the free list chemicals not produced in this country will amount to eight hundred and seventy-fiv- e thousand dollars, i It cites figures to show the decline in wool production and says that the ad-vance in duties have been re-commended, which will afford amp-pl- o protection to the wool grower While the senate bill fixed the duty on third-clas- s wool at 4 ceuts, the com-mittee makes it ity, with a change in delinitions, classifications, etc., which will compensate for tho difference. The committe believes tho country should produce all of tho wool of the consumers. This can bo done by the ad-dition of 100,000,000 sheep to tho pres-ent number. The report says the bill to stop tho frauds which have been practiced in the importation of wools --tind wooTMgodds."lt declares that during tho past fiscal year under-valued invoices showed an importa-tion of woolen manufacturers valued at fifty-tw- o million six ' hundred eighty one thousand dollars, whereas the real market value was nearly ninety millions, equivalent to an im-portation of. one hundred aud sixty million pounds of wool. The present bill,' s it is ; argued, by ' in-creasing the duty ""on iiue wools Will transfer to this country from fifteen to twenty million dollars ih woolen manufacture. The average rate of the woolen goods sche-dule proposed is 01.78 grains the pres-ent rate of 67.15.

Kilinan City 'Doom Heater" anil How They Watted Death. Kansas City, Mo., April 111. Yester-day was an exciting one among tho followers of Mrs. Woodworlh and Apos-tle Erickson, the leaders of the "Doom Scalers." The prophecies that all tho large cities of tho country would be destroyed by an earthquake found many believers in this city, and they have been preparing for the day for some time, although they have made no very great demonstration of their belief, because they were under the impression that Kansas City would escape the general destruction. But as the day approached when the prophecy was to bo verified they showed signs of uneasiness, and for the past two weeks they have been holding nightly meet-ings at a little church near Tenth and Walnut streets. Night before last they continued the services through the long watches of the night and at daylight yesterday morning they were slill praying for de-liverance from destruction. As Kansas City is ou the highest ground iu the whole " slate, thero was no place for them to lice to, and tho result is that they had to patiently await the w rath to come. Many of them remained at the church all day and only returned to their homes last night when exhaust-ed nature could stand no more. They feel that they have escaped a great calamity, and are anxious to hear from the other doomed cities, which they arc confident are swallowed up by this time. There has been no sacrificing of property here, as has been noted at other cities, but the believers in tho new faith have been earnest in their en-deavor to avert tho trouble which they believed was coming. Tho leader of the movement in this city was a man named Richard Olafsun, who became imbued with the idea while visiting iu Oakland. (';l1'. omc we,,ks ago. His doctrines were taught to a few friends, and gradually spread until now there are in the neighborhood of 100 people who have the same belief. Work Mtnppeil III Chicago.
