Has Granted No Immunity. Mr. Bonaparte was asked whether the I Department of Justice was pursuing a pol Iry of granting immunity to certain violators of the law so as t and then proceeded to direct the grand jury at Chicago to inquire into the Chicago and Alton for granting the rebates to the Standard.

No Knowledge of Other Cases. The Department of Justice has no knowledge whether former Attorney General Mood> made promises of "immunity in other cas instituted during Ills regime in the Department of Justice. These promises are not matters of official record, being simply the passing of the word ot the representative of the government. Tin.* following on this subject was given out at the Department of Justice today: "Attorney General Bonaparte stated tills morning that lie expected to have a conference on Monday next with District Attorney Slm?. former District Attorney Mori son and Mr. Wilkerson, on the subject of the Chicago and Alton cases, and that, until he had held such a conference, no statement in regard to the matter involved could, of course, be mad.-, lie said that he understood that certain testimony and statements were to be presented to him, and would receive careful examination and consideration.

t MENACE OF WAR CONSIDERED RE- MOVED BY AGREEMENT. I

ST. PETERSBURG, August 15.-The text j of the Russo-Japaneea treaty recognizing j the Independence and territorial integrity of the Chinese empire, and pledging the two countries to the maintenance of the status quo, which was signed on July 80 last, was made public today and was wall received on all sides. In their estimate of the results the conservative and liberal newspapers display remarkable unanimity In agreeing that it establishes the relations between the two powers on a sound basis, guaranteeing un- broken peace for a long period.

mo ?uvuc vicmya cA^xtisses tne opinion that the treaty is the turning point in Rus- Bla's Asiatic policy, enabling her to shift her attention hereafter to nearest Russia, after having carefully weighed the arguments in favor of waging a return war for the recovery of the lost ground In Manchuria and having finally decided to accept the situation as it is, abandoning all idea of a war of revenge. "Menace of War Removed." The Rossia characterizes the treaty as a link in the chain of Internationa] agreements removing the menace of war In the far east. The Slovo, In behalf of the Russian lib erals. acknowledges the government has J arrived at a prompt decision on the general outlines of Russia's future foreign policy, adding that M. Iswolsky's direction of the foreign office commands universal approval "because It Is based on a true conception of Russian interests, which will best be served by the completion of the agreements with Great Britain and China." Spheres of Influence Defined. TOKIO, August 15.?It ia believed here tViof t Vin Pncon.Ta nntiARA trf?ntv tnnlndAe a clause, which has not be?ia published, spe- clflcally dellning the respective spheres of Influence of the two countries.

WARRANTS I ISSUED i I j Conflict Between Union and i Non-Union Workmen. i/Vl I H A DANGEROUS WEAPON Charge Against Walking Delegates of Plasterers' Organization. 'STRIKE HAS BEEN BROKEN" nun oy xvepresentanve of Employers' Association?Progress of Work on Local Structures. The conflict between the iri!on and nonunion workman of the building trades aslumfd what is regarded as a sarious phase odai, when Prosecuting Attorney James VI. Proctor, in the Police Court, ordered wo warrants issued for George Paeon, the walking delegate of the plasterers' union, A'ho was arrosted on a charito of pmrmriniF n an affray on G street recently. One of he warrants charges that Bacon made an issault with a dangerous weapon on John Ferguson of 711 12th street, a non-union vorkman, who had taken the place of one >f the strikers. The other warrant charges 3acon with making a simple assault on iJdivard Carter of Takoma Park. The warrants wore sent out from the Police Court this afternoon to he placed in the hands of the lo'.ice for immediate service. The issuing of the two warrants followed the ,1 D..viv;ii VA tiic ciiargc 01 iffray against Bacon, Ferguson and Carter In the Police Court Tuesday. When Prosecuting Attorney Proctor noted the nature of the trouble and learned from the witnesses what transpired he nolle prossed the charge of affray against the three men and ordered the warrants to Issue against the walking delegate of the union, charging him with assault with a jan^prntlfl txrao J ?1A' n^uji, auu wii.n simple assault. Investigation of Fight. The Investigation of the fight between Bacon, Ferguson and Carter on G street between 13th and 14th streets Is said to have developed the claim that a big stick was used as a weapon by Bacon, and that I resulted in the charge of assault with a dangerous weapon. The union man went to the new building under construction on G street last Monday, it is stated, and when the non-union plasterers, who took the strikers' places, left the building after doing a day's work, he accosted Ferguson and Carter and began to tell them of the position of tho union toward them. Ferguson and Carter, It is uiu iiui uesire 10 discuss ihe situation and they continued to walk along the street. The altercation followed. According to statements made 10 the prosecuting attorney today. Bacon used a slick with great force on Ferguson, striking him on the shoulder and arm. Carter, it was further shown, was struck with Ills opponent's list and Carter declares that other attempts were made to strike him. "Force cf Strike Broken." "The force of the building trades strike nas be:-n broken.'' Tills shibboleth was sounded today by a leading member of the Employers' Association of Washington. Secretary Hall of the organization of employers, declared that the system adopted ijy that association has been fully organized find thnt a full ,.P u>> .|?ULIV Ul Itull-IIIIIIHI IIiyt'IlHIlics are beting received and registered. "The sky Is becoming clear," Mr. Hall idded. "and we have not begun to light yet. We are organized away ah ad of the ;arae, and prepared for the worst the unions can do. We are three to one now :omrared with what organized labor iias accomplished in this strike. Unless the unions do some more striking we will have to withdraw some of our p'.ans." Tills elation was evidently shared by the ather members of the Employers' Association at headquarters, 1 G street, today. The clerks were kept busy attending to nonunion workmen who came to enter their names on the roll of the strikebreakers. It was stated that a number of non-i Zionists from other cities arrived today and that a fair percentage of the newcomers are bricklayers. Progress of Work. A visit was paid today to tlie Academy of Music, and Mr. Samuel J. Prescott, the eontractor. said the structure is 95 per cent completed. He added that tlie chairs will be put in place Monday, and the entire structure will be turned over to its owners next Thursday. From a perch high up in the partly completed gallery a representative of The Star looked down upon the busy beehive below wher* 1 l'.i non-union mechanics were as active as the proverbiil be?-s with hammer, saw and other tools. "This does not look as If the building trades unions have got u.s tied up, docs it?" Contractor Frescott queried. "Our nonunion workmen ar-3 so thick tliat they are almost in the way of one another. They are fairly falling over ?-Hch oilier. Kv?-.y one of the structural trades is repr* ted hera except that of bricklaying and stone masonry, and that class ;:gh the portals." Mr. Prescott pointed significantly to ft watchman standing at the main entrance armed with an oak club as big as a base ball bat. All Day and All Night. Work on the Academy of Music !s carried >n tnrougnout me twenty-rour Hours of svery day, the men working in shifts. After sundown illumination is furnished by elee:rio lights. It was explained that some of lie carpenters at work today were "the jest In the country," and Included teachers >f the manual training schools of the Dis:rict. Contractor Prescott added that when he Academy job was "struck" last Thurslay the Interior was dripping wet with con ,rete, and now It Is ready for the installa ion or uie iron cnairs tor the audiences, md by next Thursday the Interior will be eady for the decorators and scenic artists o put on the finishing touches. "I could not have gotten such a large orce of mechanics together had the unions ituck to me. hs I have now," Mr. Presoott i laid, "and I intend to keep the i>rrsent workmen the year around on my work here md elsewhere. 1 have no room for union nen now." The statement was made that work "is noving along" on the following "struck" mildings: Mount Vernon Seminary strucures at 11th and M street, at 1104 M street, He I. Ai. Cn a voa Buying Braccs List at Intervals. NEW YORK, August 15.?Anoth r sharp break in the prl. s of stocks characterised the opening of the stock market today, following the lead s.t by the I/Ondon market, where the prices of American stocks slumped today on the announcement of tha Increase In Hank uf England's rated a point and a half. Northern Pacific fell from to 114. American Sugar f?-ll 2*4 points to lOT1^. New York Central lost about one point on the first sales. These breaks \v re promptly followed by recoveries of a point In most of the active leading stocks, but the undertone w;;S extremely feverish. The fact that usual settlements of the transactions of the previous day :e nadu by brokers without a failure had a reassuring effect upon the market, and tl)? rally of the first hour was sustained. A number of the market leaders, Inclading St. Paul, L'nion Pacific and Reading, advanced a point or more over the closing prices of last night. The scone on the stock exchange during the morning's demoralization was of th? wildest excitement. The gallery was crowded with spectators. Stocks continued to be bought 111 mod* erat? amounts, and a large proportion of the list ruled mat rlally above yesterday's closing. Union Pacific was up two points. Republic Steel preferred yielded four. Operators 011 both sides of the market took advantage of the low prices to buy heavily, and the resultant rally reduced the u -li aurai' u. Word was received from I'hiladia today that a man had kidnaped a 1 y and fled to this city, with the probable intention of leaving for Europe. Katnu i k and the boy were taken to police lieud': larteis to await the arrival of the Fi;ilaii? lui.ia officers. The man would make no statement.

August 15.?The better to prnte. r Its valuable shops and other property here from Are thiftn found that the ttlieuu Iltri iiv J? victim of the accident hart sustained a painful Injury to her nose, her ankle was dislocated and she had received a number of minor cuts and bruises. There were also symptoms of Internal Injuries, the extent of which cannot be determined before tonight or tomorrow. After Mrs. Chase had received first aid treatment she was removed to her home by Dr. Weaver. Her numerous cuts and j bruises were dressed and she was made fairly corn fort-able for the night. Early I this morning the physician returned to the house to see the patient. He found her iti I good condition and expressed the belief that Mrs. Chase will recover. TTo fitctri Policeman Levi reached the scene of the accident ft fe-w minutes after It occurred and made inquiries of the witnesses for the purpose of ascertaining the identity of the occupant of the automobile. He was told that the automobile did not stop after Mrs. Chase had been knocked down, but Mr. Wt-tmore denies this statement. The policeman was told by some of the witnesses that the automobile was going only at a moderate rate of spce'1. at the time the accident occurred, out others said i they thought the operator was making high I soeed. Thte mornlne Policeman Levi re ported l&e accident to Assistant United States Attorney Proctor. A son of the Injured woman was at the Police Court this morning to see what action was to be taken. It Is likely that no charge other than that of assault will be tiled In the case until Mrs. Chase Is able to make a statement about the accident. Mr. Wetmore i* well known in Washington's younger social set, and Is said to devote that portion of his time which can be spared from social and other pleasures to the Interests of his \father. GENERAL OLIVER BACK HE GOES OVER BUREAU ESTIMATES WITH SECY TAFT. Gen. Oliver, assistant secretary of war, after a short vacation near Murray Bay, Canada, lias returned to this city for the purpose of assisting Secretary Taft to dispose of the mass of business that has accumulated during the temporary absence of both of them. The two officials were closeted in the Secretary's office for several hours today making a final review of the estimates prepared by the various bureau chiefs for the support of the military establishment for t.Ue fiscal year 1!X>!>. Gen. Bell, chief of staff, and Mr. Scofield, chief clerk ..f Wo- I Unn m vil ill' ai i |Hli Uliriu, v> r 1 f J'l l-at"ll UUJ" ing the consideration of the various ostimatos. Among the estimates considered were those submitted by Gen Mackenzie, chief of engineers: (Jen. Crozier, chief of ordi nanc*-; (Jen. Aleshire, chief of the quarteri master's department; Gen. Sniffln, paymaster general; (Jen. Allen, chief of the Signal Corps, and Gen. Murray, chief of artillery. As a rule these estimates were trimmed down to the lowest possible margin commensurate with the great interests inv dvrd in the maintenance of the growing military establishment. Except in a few instances, the estimates were practically about the same as the appropriations for the current fiscal year, whatever changes there were being In the nature of increases. Secretary fast was so much engrossed with the consideration of the military estimates today that he had scarcely any time at ail for the disposal of other business or the reception of the many callers who desired to see him before his trip to the i Philippines. If S cretary Taft felt disappointed at the I meagern^ss of the vote cast in the Phil! ippines recently on the occasion of the first j elction for members of the legislature he did r.ot betray that fact. Indeed, he de i ciarfa *.imi ue imu miner expected rrom th xpert ence gained during; American inI t- rv.-ntion in Cuba that the Filipinos would I not avail to the utmost at the outset of the 1 newly conferred privilege of voting. l*ni doubtedly many of the Filipinos were timid, ami disliked to arouse the ill-feeling of that element in the population which had resisted any attempt to induce them to participate in a government under American auspices in Cuba he said that was true of the Spanish element of the population, many of the Spaniards even appealing to the American governor general to be excluded from the right to vote, so as to avoid the necessity of making the Issue with their neighbors. However, this feeling changes in time and the same people freely avail of th" right of suffrage In after elections. The Uiw>(>atarv fait fh#? j wouia ne mo case In the Philippines, and in the course of a year or two the registration would largely Increase. Meanwhile he had noted with satisfaction that many of the Filipinos elected to the national legislature as mdep^ndestas were of conservative tendencies, as shown by their records, and he had little fear that the first assembly would be extremely radical. A mob broke into the frail city Jail at Salem. W. Va.. liberated a primmer who had Just been arrested and he'.d the officer who made the arrest while the released prisoner beat the policeman with his own club.

I.ike the Swlnemunde meeting an the approaching Interview between Kin Edward and Emperor Francis Joseph a Ischl, the papers think It may prlnclpall be Important In calming the sensibilities c Germany concerning the series of agret ments Great Britain has been completln and that from this standpoint It wl strpncthpn fho nonr>c* nf ITurAna o Moreover, yesterday's meeting Is cor traated wlrh the handshake between th king and the German emperor last year a Kronberg, and there Is a disposition to cor slder the Wllhelmhoho meeting as bein something In the nature of a genuine recor dilation between the two sovereigns, whos relations heretofore have been notorlousl cool.

The messenger boys, or such as we wanted of them, have returned to work _ since the police have restrained the rabble from committing depredations, and the messenger force is now under police sur veiliance. 1 Mr. Bresnahan also said that notice la f given to all patrons of the company that r messages are taken subject to delay, "bey cause we do not know what conditions exist in other parts of the country." He added that he received this morning a service mt-ssage on office business from 1 Oakland. Cal., near the scene of the origination of the present trouble, and that the t message was dated today. In conclusion Mr. Bresnahan Baid: n "The Western Union Company Is satisfied with the situation and the outlook." When inquiry was made at the Postal office for Manager Prosser, the official beg hind the desk said he could not be seen. e "But," he added, "you may say conditions 7 ?cio ate nui ixia-i. Awaiting Small's Word. The headquarters of the striking op eratora In tho Columbia Hotel were crowded all day by members of the execu_ tlve committee and others, who were Impatiently waiting to hear from President Small at Chicago. Pickets came In at Intervals to report, and thoy said but few strikebreakers were coming into Washlng11 ton. Vice President Beattle was aa hopeful as ever and declared the outlook was all that could be desired. He said the union was not suffering any losses from desertions. Dut was gaining recruits. Last nlgiit, he added, the union sent away from town on the owl train, three Imported 0 strikebreakers who had been captured by 8 pickets and converted to anlonlsm. The Y men were returned to their homes. Mr. Beattle had been Informed that a canvass of the business men. particularly the 3 commission merchants, had been made and r the Information gained that the great strike 1 had !n a measure paralyzed certain business Interests here. This was particularly true j of the commission merchants, some of whom compl&ln that the quotations are coming in from twenty-four to thirty-six 1 hours late. 9 Others spoke of the almost impossibility I of getting off telegrams to their patrons, and as the produce they handle is largely 1 perishable much damage has resulted.

Word was received at local strike headquarters today that the fchlef operators In New York city contemplate Joining the strikers. "If this occurs," said one of the executive committeemen, "it will be a stroke the Western Union Company will never recover from and will win the strike for us." A report said to be baaed on the best authority was received at headquarters from Chicago that 94 out of the 100 chief operators there had walked out, which Is said to explain why Chicago is unable to handl? much business, as the companies' have no operators who are competent to manipulate the complicated switchboards. It was also learned that fifty of the operators employed by the Armour Company had walked out and Joined the strikers. The statement was made today at strik# headquarters that President Perham of the Brotherhood of Railway Telegraphers said, while he was in this city recently, he would nAf eaa tha P-immarnlal Talfltrro nhi?ra' UVV kUU VWlUiUl'l VIUI V?V5lC*|/i*viw Union perish If he could prevent It; that If It became necessary he would call out all the railway operators and tie up all the railroads In the United States and Canada, however much he might regret to do so. The calling of the local strike of the telegraphers August 12, one day ahead of the scheduled date for the walkout in this city, Is said to have been due to the superstitious dread of one of the union officers for the fateful number "18." Had the strike not been ordered by Vice President Beattle Aueust 12 it is krM the strike order would have been received the 13th from New York. Up to a late hour this afternoon the waiting committeemen at strike headquarters had not received the eagerly expected message from President Small at Chicago. Messenger Boys Weaken. The messenger boys got the worst of It, according to thelf leaders. The strlktng youngsters began to desert "de gang" about 4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon. First they commenced to return to work singly, then in squads, and fln&lly thla morning the remainder went back to the employment places en masse?that Is, such of them as the managers of the telegraph companies would accept. It was stated that certain of the more strenuous leaders had been placed on the blacklist and would not be re-employed. One of the first happenings this morning was the action of a policeman who had been detailed to suppress any disorderly conduct on the part of the boys. Ha found Will Bowes, said to be the first lieutenant at the strikers, near the entrance to the messengers' room of the Postal Company, and. suspecting that Bowes was on picket duty, took him Into custody. The lad was escorted to the first precinct station house on 12fih street, and. after being given a "stiff lecture," as the boy described it, was allowed to depart. "What did yer (jet, Will?" asked another striker, as Bowes emerged from the station house. "I got a hot warning," was the reply. Leader Bowes later said he was picked up by the policeman for "hanging around." and that when he reached the station house he was notified that he must either go to work or else stay away from the vicinity of the telegraph offices. Policemen on Oaard. Bicycle policemen were stationed near the Postal and Western Union buildings today, with Instructions to prevent any unnecessary loitering by the boys and to prevent the strikers from "holding up" and maltreating lads who had gone to work aa messengers. The first boys to take out telegraphic messages this forenoon were accompanied several blocks on their Journeys by bicycle policemen. One vivacious youngster exclaimed In front of the Postal bulldtng: "Gee, de bicycle cops Is everywhere and de striking boys Is as scarce as hen's teeth this morning. No wonder we lost, when de companies had de cops on dere side." TBIALS OF A TROTTER. Worked in Butcher Cart Before Making Debut on Race Track. POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y..

ALL KEYS WILL BE SILENT SOON (Continued from First Pago.) the Chicago Association of Commerce will be held today. H. A. Stlllwell. chairman of the ways and means committer, said he favors presidential Interference. President Roosevelt's failure to respond to the appeals for personal action Is taken as being equivalent to an announcement that full authority Is vested In Commissioner Nelll, who still remains In the city to meet President Small. When Mr. Small arrives In Chicago this afternoon he will he greeted by 800 strikers at the station, aftor which tha ATATiitivA A/tmmUtAA mAoHriv ond hrt postponed deliberations will be gone through with. Board Office's Reopened. The Postal and Western Union Telegraph companies today reopened their offices on the board of trade. The operators were comparatively few In number, and the amount of business transacted was less than normal. Both companies declared, however, that they would be ab'.e to Improve conditions later In the day, and to Increase still further their facilities tomorrow. It was declared la.st nlsrht that strikes would be called today In all brokerage houses, but up to a late hour In the morning no walkouts were reported. Many of the leading houses have signed the union scale. The attempts at arbitration by Commissioner Nelll and other outside parties have up to the present time born no fruit whatever. Both telegraph companies and the members of the union still declare that they will not arbitrate anything. CLOWRY VERY OPTIMISTIC SAYS W. U. HAS ALL THE 3LEN XT NEEDS. Ppeclal Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, August 15.?Everything wai quiet locally in the telegraph strike this morning. The situation had not changed for the worse during the night as concerned either the Western Union and Postal Telegraph companies. Both got oft their night buaineas In good time with a sufficient working force of operators. Col. Clowry, president of Che Western Union, was In a cheerful mood when seen U>is morning. .He announced that the strike was a flzzle. lie said: "So far as the Western Union figures In the matter the strike Is over. We are working with our full force of men, getting the business oft our hands In fine shape, and a number of the strikers have applied for their old Jobs. We have been obliged to refuse the appll cations, aa we had no room (or the men. "This strike seems to have been conducted without system and organization. Apparently the president of the union wanted one thing, the executive council wanted another, and the local still another. In fact, I don't know Just what they do want or what they are expecting of u*. The 10 per cent Increase which we put Into effect In aiaron was a general increase, ine acnun of the company seemed to surprise the men, and they then began to trump up other complaints." Branches Will Stay Closed. Superintendent Belvldere Brooks was not a whit less optimistic. He told of the receipt of two pitiful letters from strikers who had wives and families, who asked to return to their old jobs. Superintendent Brooks said that he was sorry for them, but that there was no room for the men, since every place was full. He was asked if he would take back loO of the old men, providing that Lhey should apply for reinstatement. "I'm afraid not," he said. "We would not have anything for them to do." Superintendent Brooks went on to say that the thirty branch offices which still remain closed will probably never be re opened, ob at no time had they done much business, and the company could get along without them. He said that the executive board held a meeting yesterday at which they did not even discuss the strike. Vloe President Nally of the Postal had the same optimistic accounts to give about the business of his company this morning at the Western Union offices. In a nutshell the situation appoared to be this: The strikers, who assert that they now number 22.000, have not gained anything except recruits. Their hopes of cutting off communication with ImDortant points In the strike zone have seemingly been blasted by the ease with which the companies are maintaining connections with dlstajit points. If the strikers have been playing for Interference on the part of President Roosevelt they have been disappointed, for the President, to whom several boards of trade appealed for mediation, has Indicated that he will not Interfere, but la leaving Labor Commissioner Nelll to bring: about an amicable adjustment of tha difficulty. If he can. Month's Funds on Hand. Daniel Rusaell, chairman of the strategy board of the local union, said this morning that the union had $88,000 In the treasury, enough for a month's fight. From this It was taken that the union expects a long contest. Should more than the amount in the general treasury be needed, said Mr. Russell, he had no doubt that the Wall street operators, who had benefited In the present controversy by securing a raise of $10 a week, would willingly contribute to the cause. As much as $10,000 or $15,000 more would be added to the fund by the financial district men. Mr. Russell thought, and by the additional help of a 1 per cent tax on tha salary of each member of the American Federation of Labor, he said, the telegraphers would be enabled to light indefinitely. Mr. Russell took great apparent delight In telling a story about a union man who last eveninj? mailed a postal card in Phlln delphia to the office of the local here, and at tlie saint.' time sent a telegram over the Western Union wires. The postal card was delivered at 8 o'clock tills morning, the telegram an hour later. Mr. Russell said, and he thought it was a nti-lirir.^ oinn 0 Olftii the completeness of the tie-up. The union men held no meeting this morning, but devoted their activities to arguing with strikebreakers In the endeavor to turn them away from their work. STRIKE POWER GIVEN NEW ENGLAND LEADERS MAY ORDER AT.T, MEN OUT. Special Dispatch to The Star. J BOSTON, August 15.?There was Uttla change in the telegraph situation here today. The companies claim that they are able to handle all of the business that Is 1 being offered, while the strikers claim that they are dally adding recruits to their numbers. While there seems not the re- motest possibility that the railroad men of 1 New England will become Involved, there is a great deal of uncertainty. General Chairman E. J. Manion of the O. R. T., of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad, made the following: statement today: "The commercial telegraph operators will have the moral and financial support of c the railroad telegraphers in their great bat- tie for Justice. The New York and New t Haven road is now working under a con- i tract signed by the operators' committee r and by the officials of the railroad. It is 1 dated June 29, 1007. This contract will be I lived up to strictly by the operators, and railroad officials have given assurance 1 a that tholr part of ths agreement wlU b? likewise adhered to." This means that the railroad telegraphers will n*>t handle any nu'ssaxi 8 except tho*? doalmit strictly with railroad business. Great Importance now attache* to th* action of the telegraphers of the Poston financial offices, known an the State atreet brokers, as to whether they will take an active uart In the strike by ifvlnc out if called upon by the national officers of th* union. Brokers' Kejrmen to Meet. James R. MoI>ean. chairman of the Stat* .wtrw vi mo u-icgnipnerB union, which Includes all the operators who work In the brokerage offices, about 100 men. said this morning: "I have called a meeting: of the members of the chapel for Friday evening- at H o'clock. I placed the meeting: night quite a long way oft because I desire to have every member present. Many of our men are in the outlying district, and I desire a full attendance. "So far as tho broker offices are concerned everything: will run along as usual until the meeting Friday night determines the course we are to pursue. There was no cessation of work prior to that meeting. and. as a matter of fact, 1 do not anticipate that there will be any troublo after the meeting has been held." At last night's executive meeting a vote was passed to the effect that all Associated Press operators In New Kngland :r,,i L WUIK ill IWIUI11K1U IttHt HlgHt would be considered strikebreakers and expend from the unfon. Equally Important came the word to President McCarty of the locnl union from Perry Thomas, deputy president of the national body, to the effect that a general strike order was then Issued, being optional in all districts. This means that every president of every local is now vested with the authority to order a general strike at will. In the matter of so-called snap wires It was voted that contracts be signed with two of the Boston newsnener* nn.l Hint fti? executive committee be given another d:iy In which to Investigate the applications of other newspapers. Hard on Business. 9. D. Morse of the Roston chamber of commerce states that the strike has been a great Interruption to business. "The members of the chamber of commerce are particularly anxious," he declared. "to have the matter straightened out pretty soon. We do not have much to do with New York, but Chicago and westAi>n Kliolnoaa la ?-?-?ham. FORMALLY "DISCHARGED." fT-1 1 T?. 1 J AJi oiri&iu^ xeiegrt&puers rtuu vu iu Baltimore. BALTIMORE!, August 13.?All the telegraph operators who struck work In tills city Monday were paid their two weeks' salary yesterday by the Western Union an4 Postal Telegraph companies and formally "discharged" from the service. The long-expected order to prepare the grievances of the Baltimore men came from the union leaders In Chicago. They will affect both companies. Hitherto 1t was expected that only men of the Western Union would complain, but the feeling has sprung up In the ranks of the Postal men since they .walked out that now la the time to make their demands. U'lm tVirt n fr V. ,-v (nfr. nit tiia i ai iirj ivvu nun rn about the same as the day beforo ami telegraphic communication uncertain, the latter continuing to work great hardships upon business, both the managements of the local companies and the strikers started to prepare for a long and bitter conflict. From today on, when a general strike order from Chicago Is expected to be Issued by President Small of the Commercial Telegraphers' Union, of which Baltimore men are members, there will be hardly any perceptible change In the Baltimore situation. and until a flnal settlement is secured by the national organization It Is believed to be a "waiting game." ROOSEVELT STAYS OUT. Apparently Not Interfering in the Telegraphers' Strike. OYSTER BAY, N. Y., August 15?President Roosevelt will not concern himself personally with the telegraphers' strike, according to the best Information obtainable here. Appeals to the President to take some aotlon looking to a settlement of the strike were received at the executive office here yesterday from 'boards of trade and commercial bodies of a large number of cities. The applications were similar In character to those formulated Tuesday by the Chicago board of trade. ICach emphasised the Importance of direct action by the President. The communications have been referred 1 n(.n. Pl.OPUa 1> VAII lO LOinnilSdlUlli;! iri unuui vuMiva It Is understood that no Instructions or recommendations liava been forwarded to Mr. Nell. From the first Mr. Nell has been active In an endeavor to effect a settlement of the trouble. It Is stated here that he has as yet made no report to tho President, nor has he received any messaged from Mr. Koosevelt touching upon the matter In hand. Mr. Neil's movements, however, have been closely followed, and. while the direct statement Is not made, the impression is given that In Mr. Nell's efforts the ad?inn fnnsMera that the limit of ltS functions and authority in the matter Is being exercised. Tickers Tick Out. PHILADELPHIA, August IB.?Three girls employed as operators In the nttico of the Philadelphia local teiegrrfph company, .'id and Chestnut streets, caused m.jre of a Hurry liwthe brokers' offices today than has attended the sensational decline in stocks during the past two weeks. The three girls went on strike at o'clock, and for twenty minutes not a single stock or cotton quotation from New York was received at any of the brokers' offices over the public wires. The small brokers were hit hardest, for the larKe firms, as soon as the local news service stopped, switched off to their private wires and had their New York offices send over the quotations direct. By a good bit of hustling \V. P. Wheatland, manager of the offices, obtained two men from the Western Union and put them to work in place of the striking? glr's. None of the three girls who walked out belong fn t hunion. Records for Twenty-Four Hours.

It came to the point of acute distress and a reor- ganization was forced. Though a wealthy corporation, it had pursued the policy of j undi r-capitalizatlon until it came close to wreck. A lack of uniformity in financial methods Is apparent to any one who studies the I situation today. The country needs steadying, harmonizing. It is running Into extremes. Its prosperity has caused it to lose Its balance here and there, and when the pinches come, as at present, it suffers the consequences of had business methods. The San Francisco Primaries. San Francisco Is soon to hold a municipal election, and primaries were held yesterday for the election of delegates to the party conventions. The Issues between the re- formers and the anti-reformers were drawn fairly tight within party lines, but It Is 1m- possible at this time to ascertain precisely what prospect there Is of such a contest at the polls later as will develop the final trend of public sentiment. The republicans. It Is assured, will put a straight-out reform i ticket in the field, with a frank declaration in favor orf pursuing the bribery-graft prose- cutions and proceeding with the cleaning up of the city. The regular democratic l organization will dominate that party's convention. The union labor party will apparently be controlled by the adherents of former Mayor Schmltz, 'whose friends insist that he is still the acting mayor, though In jail. This party will oppose the prosecuti'on of the brit>ery-graft cases, and it may even go so far as to place Schmitz in nomination. If so. there is a possibility that the republican reform candidate for district attorney will be indorsed by the regular democratic party, which should Insure his election and the committal of San Francisco to the policy of punishment and reform. It Is to be hoped that this issue will be squarely fought out on the reform lines. San Krancisco apparently needs one more demonstration of the power of the better sentiment. It has suffered intolerably In purse, name and prosperity during the past few years, and especially during the year following the fire and earthquake, and It must get down to solid bottom before it can j hope to build permanently and wholesomely. The disclosures of the bribery and graft investigations should have proved convincingly to all classes the utter demoralization of the political conditions under which the city lias been governed hero- tofore. If In the face of these revelations San Francisco cannot elect men who are i unflinchingly set for reform, who are be- yond the reach of the briber, who are with- f out fear In the pursuit of criminals of all e grades. there is indeed no hope for It. But it is not to be believed that this is the case. The evil element is nowhere In the majority. though it Is often most active. Gov. Hughes. Gov. Hughes, it fS announced, will visit a number of county fairs and give his constittipnts an onrnunt nn to l?io o nwi j ship. It is a Rood idea. New York is very much interested in him and his performances. and should he kept well advi'sed at first hand of what he is doing and its meaning. The county fair is a wholesome, praiseworthy Institution. Its patrons as a rule have something to show for their part in life. They have a stake fn the game. They want gnod government, and are the J men to help provide it. They voted in large numbers for Gov. Hughes, anff while lie keeps their confidence and support he cannot be easily put at a disadvantage by the professional politicians. Next year? Well, if Gov. Hughes wants the support of hi's state in tne repuor.can national convention j this awing around the circle will do him no j harm. Reports Indicate that the army worm has done very little damage In the vicinity of Oyster Bay. This shows wonderful caution and discrimination in a form of animal life hitherto regarded with disdain. Some little fear is felt that when the time comes for the amalgamation of political influence some gentleman will like his presidential boom too well to refuse to surrender It. 1 L.iKe a numner 01 omer democratic statesmen. Mr. Watterson Is much more confident in expressing himself about who ought not to be a candidate than about who ought to be. Members of Congress, when the tickers are installed to keep them posted on events on the floor, in order to preserve the artistic fitness of things should insist on red as the color of the tape. The public may be again called upon to suspend its own petty business affairs while a disagreement between a company and its employes is settled.

When from the seashore she returns, Belinda will display The cruel sun's relentless burns In a contented way. Her freckles all disfiguring Will be possessions dear; And photographs with her she'll bring Of friends in costumes queer. That sunburn was alas no joke; She almost wept with pain. Ana rather s very nearly broke From the financial strafn. But who shall murmur and be sad O'er time and money lost; If It has made Belinda glad. The trip's worth all It coat. A Fault of Manner. Froiu the New York Trlliune. Every act of President Roosevelt in relaion to the enforcement of the laws afTectng corporations and the industrial life of lie nation lias contemplated the bringing ibout of conditions under which orooertv .vouid be more secure, enterprise better regarded and prosperity more widely d.fTuse.l ind more permanent. Neither his actions lor his utterances have been calculated to j xcite alarm by suggestions of a flippant L iptrit and a feeble sense of responsibility. Such having been the President's own conitant mood and conduct, he cannot have >een agreeably impressed by the tone of re- :ent allusions emanating from the Depart- nent of Justice to its possible future activl- 1 :les. We have no Idea that Mr. Bonaparte I las sought to create apprehension and irouse resentment, but he should reflect hat this is a time when serious citizens are J certain to be displeased ar.d grave anxieties :o be deepened by precisely such utterances from a high official source as those which a lav-ft hPAM utf rlhntpri tn him u/lthin t ho 1 nt 3 few days. 1 1 Parks in Cities. Krom the Columbus Ohio State Journal. Only ft few years ago, comparatively i peaking, the great discovery was made i hat play is not only good for children, but hat it actually has an educational value. 5 k'oung folks need play In order to be lealthy, wealthy and wise. Hence the playground movement was started, and all Itles of considerable size now have large i >pen tracts for the special gratification of he "play Impulse," as the educators call j \Tar. 1na? Ir. ni.? l. ai icwi, j ti uui vri) ucuuciaic 5. irogress, It has been discovered that play s good for grown people, too; and, more- >ver, that, like children, they absolutely =1 leed play. Goc-d, healthy, clean amuse- 3 nent of some kind or other Is necessary to :he well bfclng of a community. Base ball 3 larks, theaters, etc., are Important ele- jj nents In public life, and ought to be recarded as matters of public interest and Ilscusslon, In order that they may be prop- ?rly regulated, and diversions of a right =1 ,-haracter offered in them. But of all the imusements which young people or grown |j jeople need, those which take them out of 3 loors are the most necessary and the most jeneflclal. j 1 Cremation and Its Advocates. From tbe Boston Transcript. While no very recfent records have been made public with respect to the Increase of remati'on of the dead, there can be little Joubt that public preference for this method s growing in an ever-enlarging ratio. This preference is also assuming a more prac- j Ileal character. Probe tlie Individual op!n- "ons of almost any enlightened company 1 and It will be found that as many as every jther one. and perhaps more, will pronounce ,n favor of cremation rather than sepulture; but comparatively few will make Lhelr choice so strong and definite and well understood as to receive the benefit of It nhAn thdtr llmi> CAmj1.*! rPlllllVfl flnal offices of earth.

It has often been cited as an example in favor of JefTerson's generaliza- tion: "No nation is drunken where wine Is -heap, and none Is sober where the dearness 1 of wine substitutes ardent spirits as the common beverage of the people." As against Spain, and even as against Italy. France enjoys the further advantage that her wines are of less alcoholic strength than theirs. Recent investigations, however. Indicate that France Is losing absolutely, tt-not relatively. its enviable reputation for sobriety md la Increasingly taking to "ardent spir Its." Before a Fall! Fr*>m the New York Herald.

Those in charge of the wagon anounced today that the visit to the section i question was highly successful as more lan a dozen dogs had been captured.

Only Sixteen and Assists Her Father in Shoeing Horses. i From fl?e 8t. Louis Times. Why should not a girl shoe horses, If she wants to? It Is u trifle unusual, but If she likes the work nnd is equal to It, whyshould she not do It? That Is what Minnie Hagmann, a young Missouri girl, thought, and, accordingly, site became assistant In her father's blacksmith shop, and thereby gave another Jolt to the old delusions regarding woman's sphere. It is a strange thing, by the way, that the being who Is j considered perfectly able to rear thirteen children and do the work of a large farm house shotiId be thought debarred by the delicacy of her sex from the "heavier oc- cupatlons." However, girls like Minnie i Hagmann are helping to upset this mistaken notion. I Minnie Hagmann is the daughter of a man who begun life as a Journeyman blacksmith, but who, becoming ambitious, re- i solved to have a shop of his own. He got inut iintcMi. /-i# k-' t ln? Bnup?a nine v?ii' .-.v., I-l got into ft, but simultaneously and In conseuuein'e he got into debt. It took so much of his Income to pay interest on building ami tools that lie could not afford the assistant he needed. "I'll be your assistant," said the sixteenyear-old Minnie. Minnie whs iiuite inured to the smell of singed hair and burning hoofs, for she had always been fond of hanging around her father in his work. He decided to let her try, and she sn proved herself as dexterous as any man in bending a shoe 011 the anvil and putting It on a horse. Xot that she is at all I he masculine type of girl. She Is pretty in a large and healthy way, with n tine bloom on her cheeks, and has a pleasant girlish manner.

I'm glad, too, when Sunday comes and I get a chance to help mother with the housework and to go to church. But I like the shop and I think women can do manual work just the same as men If they're 6trong and healthy. I can't lift the weight my father can, but I can shoe a hnroa o nri KnilH t? u'? critti nprfuMlv well. No, I don't care about getting married. There are so many young fellows who can't make a living for themselves, much less j. wife's living. I think I'm safer sticking to my trade." It is a brave sight to see Minnie swinging the hammer ovt-r the anvil and then picking up the horse's foot and fitting It an the shoe. She has never yet been Injured by a horse. She talks to the horses with little pats and rubbings behind the ears and on their noses; never with the whip. HAT FASTENER. Simple Device Which Does Away With Hatpins. The ingenuity of man is shown more In little things than in big ones. Not many years ago a man?and he was a genius?advertised a new hat fastener for women's hats. Women were advised to throw away hatpins and send 10 cents for the fastener. In reply each purchaser received two rubber bands, with instructions to sew them on the hat and pull the bands over eAoh far. Since then nothing J low In tliie line has appeared until now, J the hat fastener shown in the Illustration being the Invention of a Philadflphlan. Theso fasteners consist of oomb?, one on sacli wide of the hat, which slide In bra.-k;ts attached -to the under side of the brim tf the hat. At tach end of the brackets ire studs, which protrude through the end teeth of the coinb. These studs serve to Kuldo the movement of the comb. In the center of each fastener is a clamp for adlustlnf? and securely fastening the comb in position in the hair. Most men will at once declare these fasteners far superior, it least in appearance, to the unsightly hatpins. Woman in Proverbs. From the Pnria GauloU. Among the Spanish maxims one lows the bellows.

Notes of the Game. Oanley's throw In the fifth inning: was the feature r>lav of the same yesterday In a fielding way. With a runner like Nlles on thir.l and a long fly to an outfielder It takes phenomenal work to prevent the runner scoring. To make It worse. th? drive was long and hard, and not one of the crowd in the park expected to see Ni!es thrown out. The throw came on a line, and it was right on the spot at the plate. As a result Nlles was out, even though he did make a good siide. Niles, Hemphill and Pickering all three hit the ball harder in the first inning than C!?nnA Vv.?*. nct na flonrlTfl OlV/llO, Is 14 I llir.T WCIC UUl c*0 C? .1 v>vutou was, the only one to get a hit. Niles chased Charley Jones back almost against the bleachers for his fly, while Hemphill died on a liner to Delehanty. which stung the latter's hands. Pickering's grounder to Delehanty was also a hard-lilt one. Kay threw away a chance to tie up the game in the third inning before he was thrown out at the plate. He was on third when Delehanty drove on a line deep to Hemphill. Kay's play was to stay at third until he saw whether Hemphill had a chance to make the catch or not, as he would liave had plenty of tlnru to score on a nit irom tins latter point, instead i\.ay started home, and when Hemphill pulled down the ball after a long run he was forced to return to third. Had he been or the bag when the catch was made Hemphill would "never have been able to get him at the piate. As it was, Hemphill made a fast toss to Wallace and Kay was forced to remain on third. Spencer had- an easy stroll to second in the fourth inning, as a passed ball hit Hurst on the foot and he, of course, had the privilege of taking second on the interference by the umpire. Smith showed poor liead^ork in the fifth inning when he stood on the bag at third base and watched Kay thrown out at second base. He could at least have made a bluff to go.home in order to keep the St Louis infield guessing. O'Rrien came near murdering Petty in the sixth innin? when he drove a hot one al Harney, which all but knocked the lattei down. Pelty had to make the stop or gel hurt, and he did it. After that Pete was easy at first. NOTES FROM ST. LOUIS PAPERS. That Ganley Is a sweet hitter and a nlca fielder. How did he get away from Barney? Clymer is another one that can hit. Ha was "Pete in the Pinch" in that eigihth inning with a ripping single through Powell tihat tied the score. Kay, Cantlilon's new man, was there witfc a single which put his team in the lead in the eighth. He seems to ba a hitter, but Is rather slovenly in the field. Smith, Cantillon's new shortstop, looks like a rather decent little ball player, though a shade light. He has the cut of a ball player on him. anyhow. Cantlllon worked hard in the eighth. H? wanted Oberlln out and Smith in, but niso wanted to give Smltlile a chance to warm up a little more. So he sent Falkenberg in to throw the legal five balls of warm-up to the catcher, then substituted Smith. Manager Jimmie Burke of Kansas City, en route from Indianapolis to Kansas City, stopped to see the game and ren1> fly hit his groat toe Monday, came up to hit for Hlock. He almost cut Big Jack in twain at the water line with a grounder and C. Jones tied the score. Tim Hurst, making his bow for the season, was good to Spencer in the fourth. "Hack" looked fanned, but Tim jit the third one go by unnoticed. The big fellow wnaiea me nexi one to the bulletin board for three sacks T. Jones" dink to right sent him home. Patten again hollered murder in the fifth, when Hurst didn't call Hemp, out on strikes. He then dished up a straight one and Charley slapped it to deep right for three sacks. A butter right fielder than Clymer would have made a catch, but Otis waltzed all around the lot and finally lot It go over his noodle. Chesbro Beat Cleveland. CLEVELAND.

The result of the Water and Surface makes a change in the leadership, the former replacing the latter for the honored po sltion. A battle for supremacy between the pitchers was on during the game, r Cleve Beckett was on the rubber for the winners, and J. Whiting served them across for the losers, the former having gotten a shade the better of the two Surface slabmen. Humphrey Beokett caught a splendid game, and his heady work behind the hat helped his brother considerably. Jack Sherman practically won the game for his team, having saved It from defeat when, with three men on bases, he made a corking stop of a grounder and touched the second bag. making a double and retiring the side.
