9 TUBE MEN ANXIOUS What Will Amalgamated Do With «'Sympathetic" Strikers? CONFLICTING STORIES CONTINUE Meanwhile Even v Microscopic Ex- amination Would Disclose No Olive Branch. Pittsburg, Aug. 27.—The steel strine situation was featureless to-day. No sooner are rumors spread of negotia- tions for another peace conference than both sides hurry deny the accuracy of the reports. In the meantime, the leaders of tl*e work- ers assert that they are constantly making fresh inroads upon the mills of combine* while on the other hand the | great steel combination officials announce placidly that In every Instance where they have attempted to start one of their plants they have succeeded and that they can get all the men they want. That success has attended their ef- forts is evident at Wellsville, Painters' mills, Clark's and Lindsay & McCutch- eon's. The first three named are run-, ning practically full to-day and new men are being taken on every day. Fifty ad- ditional men were added to the force at Painter's yesterday and several addi- tions to the force at Lindsay & McCutcheon's were made this morning, j The management of this plant expects to j resume in all departments within a week i or as soon as the new boilers can be con- I nected up. The Carnegie upper and lower mills and the works at Homestead and Duquesne are running with the usual complement of men and there are no in- dications that tee strikers will succeed in getting the employes to join them. It is understood an effort will be made I to-night to put on a third shift at the i i tar Tin Plate mills and that - the men liave been engaged. Anxious to Know. Labor officials and workmen represent- ing the Continental and Pennsylvania Vube company of Pittsburg and the Na- tional Tube company of McKeesport were in sesion all day yesterday discussing ! Lie strike. It was finally decided to ask i resident Shaffer tor a formal expres- sion of the altitude of the Amalgamated i uaeociation towards the workers who are | on a sympathetic strike and who, it is ! understood, have struck without orders from their lodge leaders. The workmen j desire to know what will become of them j in case of a settlement and whether the j Amalgamated association will include ! them in future agreements. The striking machinists of the Na- tional Tube company have been asked, it i is said, to return to work in order to)! make extensive repairs to the machinery. ] This move was received by the mer- ! chants of McKeesport with considerabale ! joy. The machinists are considering the i request and will act definitely in a day or two. The works were in steady opera- tion before the strike for more than a! year and extensive repairs are necessary. ! So far no plans have been laid for the \ resumption of operations in the Tube ! plants and so far as known there is no I intention of. starting up in the immediate ! future. At the Demmler works of the American Tin Plato company the fires are j still kept up, but no attempt has been j made to resume. Manager Pittock claims ! to have the promise of a number of men to return when wanted. , OXLY O\E EXD POSSIBLE 80 Declare the Steel Corporation Officials. New York, Aug. 27.—The officials of the United States Steel corporation have made the following statement: The reports that there are negotiations for & settlement of the steel strike in progress are erroneous. The United States Steel cor- poration has received no proposals for the settlement and has made none. Many of our men are returning to work and many others are desirous of resuming their places. The atrike can be settled only by the return of the men to their places. LIGHTNING AIDS PROPHETESS Colored Congregation Stampeded in Short Order. Special to The Journal. Galesburg, 111.. Aug. 27.—Mrs. Mary Lark, a negro prophetess, caused a stam- pede in the African Methodist church here last night. Mrs. Lark had been appeal- ing fervently to a large congregation to repent of their sins and there had been but few "amens." Finally, shouting at the top of her voice she denounced Gales- burg for its wickedness and hard-hearted- ness. "I foretell," she screamed, "the de- struction of Galesburg in the near future. In Tennessee I predicted the overthrow of a town, and in a few hours the Lord 'sent a floo.d and the streets were filled with dead bodies." As Mrs. Lark said this a vivid flash of lightning dazzled her audience, which was already highly excited. Thunder roared and a dark cloud was seen through the windows. The entire congregation broke for doors and windows and in five minutes not a soul was left in the neighborhood. While no one was hurt in the jam there were narrow escapes. TO SILENCE GOSSIP Grows Inciaiie in Efforts to Prove His Marriage Hmt Mercenary. How "YorkSun Special Service Boston. Aug. 27. —Madness has -cast its shadow upon the life of F. N. Morse, a young banker of Worcester, who is con- nected with a banking institution in Bos- ton. The young financier is in a padded cell in Fitchburg, and will probably be re- moved to Westboro insane asylum. It is eaid he worked beyond his powers In order to silence the tongues that spread the slander that he married his wife for her money. Morse, who started in life as a poor boy, informed his friends that he intended to achieve so brilliant a success before he was forty as to give the lie to the accusation. He rapidly worked up- ward. A year ago he became a member of a Boston company, and soon after his removal to this city suffered an epileptic fit, caused, as the physicians said, by too great mental strain. Four weeks ago Mr. Morse and his wife went to Fitchburg. Mr. Morse was ill from overwork, and on Saturday he developed unmistakable signs of insanity. His wife is heartbroken. BOATS FOR PANAMA Britishers Said to Be Preparing to Send Three From Victoria. . Victoria, B. C. Aug. 27.— H. M S Amphion yesterday loaded three scow loads of ammunition and the report is current, although no confirmation can be obtained, that she has been ordered to prepare to proceed to Panama, and that the torpedo boats Virago and Sparrow Hawk are to go with her. The Virago's boilers have been taken apart and orders •have been given for work night and day to hurry the repairs and have the boat ready to proceed. WHY SUFFER?

THE BEST HOSTETTER'S STOMACH STOMACH REMEDY. BITTERS 30,000 SIR KNIGHTS Imposing Parade Marks Opening of Templars' Conclave. LOUISVILLE IS IN GALA ATTIRE Condition of the Order Revealed in the Report* of the Grand Officer*. Louisville, Aug. 27.—A parade of 30,000 knights marching to the music of three" score brass bands to-day marked the for- mal opening of the twenty-eighth tri- ennial conclave of the grand encampment of Knights Templars. Kail way officials estimate that nearly 100,000 visitors are in the city. The weath- er was a fulfillment of the wish expressed in a message from Rear Admiral Schley who is a Knight Templar but who was unable to attend the conclave. The mes- sage follows: Washington, Aug. 26.—John H. Leathers, Grand Marshal, Louisville: May fair weather and bright skies favor the graud ceremonies this week. My disappointment no words can describe, but my heart is with you. —W. S. Schley. The parade started at Seventh and Main streets and moved up Main to Brook street, where officers of the grand encamp- i ment In carriages joined the marchers. Then the paraders moved up Market, Sixth, Jefferson, Fourth streets, passing the court of honor, Chestnut street, Floyd, Broadway, Fourth street, passing under the grand arch, Kentucky, Third, Hill, Filth, St. James court and to Central Park where the parade ended. The sidewalks were packed with spectators while every window along the course and every other vantage point were occupied to the limit. The official reviewing standing was at Third and Hill streets. The parade was a magnificent spectacle of life and color mile afrer mile of tossing plumee and flut- tering pennons, and band after band dig- coursing stirring marches. Personnel of the Marcher*. A detachment of mounted police led the march, Grand Marshal J. H. Leathers and his aides following immediately behind. Th<*n came the grand commandery of Ken- tucky, acting as a special escort to the of- ficers of the grand oucampment who rode in carriages. "When the grand master, Reuben H. Lloyd of California, stepped into his carriage, knights within eyesight brought tr.eir swords to "salute." The first grand division of the parad"e was led hy Winthrop Messenger, grand commander of the grand commandery of Massachu- setts and Rhode Island, while command- fries from New York, Vermont, Virginia, New Hampshire and Connecticut acted as aided. Arthur B. Foster, grand com- mander of the grand commandery of Ohio, guided the second division, commanderiea of Ohio and Maine acting as his aides. Pennsylvania templars formed the third division. Then came the Indiana tem- plars. In the fifth division marched knights from Texas, Mississippi and Mich- igan. Following in the sixth division was the Illinois delegation. In the next divi- sion Grand Commander George Butterfleld McKee led the commanderies of California, Tennessee, Wisconsin, New Jersey and Georgia. Templars from Missouri, Ala- bama and Louisiana came next. The ninth division, commanderies of lowa, Minnesota, Kansas, Maryland, Ne- braska and Arkansas were grouped under the direction of Graham Duke Hart, grand commander of Maryland. The 10th, 11th and 12th divisions were led respectively by J. K. F. Steele, grand commander of West Virginia; Grand Commander George Gibson of the District Columbia and R. P. Hurlburt. Sir Knight Steele was in charge of commandries from West Vir- ginia, Colorado, North Carolina, South Da- kota, Oregon, Washington, Montana "Wy- oming, North Dakota, Arizona, Florida and Indian territory. In Secret Se«Mton. At the conclusion of the parade officers of the grand encampment and command- eries were escorted to the girl's high school, where ex-Congressman Breckin- ridge delivered an address of welcome in behalf of the people of Kentucky Fol- lowing a brief response by Grand Master Lloyd, the grand encampment was form- ally resumed in secret session. Reports of Grand Officer*. The report of Grand Master Reuben H. Lloyd contained the following- The order is in a most satisfactory and healthy condition and steadily growing The present term, which began July 1, 1899 com- menced with 114,540 members and closed with 320,108. The order is in a much more healthy condition than it was before the promulgation of the decision that voluntary remaining a l'on-afflliate in lodge or chapter for six months would affect membership in a com- mandery, for now every member of the order is .sustaining it, root and branch. Referring to the results of the war with Spain the report says: Where it was dangerous to be a Mason our crder may now securely spread its humaniz- ing and elevating influences. The schoolhouse and the lodge can labor together to brueh aside ignorance and superstition and teach the downtrodden people the blessings of civil and religious liberty. We should indeed feel proud-as we <10-that a templar was the guiding spirit in bringing about this happy change to so many human beings The sphere of our usefulness ia gradually enlar- ging. Our labors are but commencing We must press onward until liberty and enlight- ?>ment shall illumine the world; until every and and every people shall have heard and rejoiced at the fulfillment of the proclamation made by the angel at the coming of Him whose followers we are, "On earth peace good will toward men." The report of the grand treasurer, H. Wales Lines, showed receipts of $11069 and net cash resources of $47,236. ' The report of the grand recorder Wil- liam H. Maye, contained these figures- Net gain in membership in 1899 ° 444- in 1900, 2,308; in 1901, 4,304, the year" ending July 1. There arc at present 1,059 command- tries with a membership of 125,108 The states having over 2,000 are as follows: Cali- fornia, 3,556; Connecticut, 2,696; Illinois 9.557; Indiana, 3,767; lowa, 4,378; Kansas' 3,361; Kentucky, 2,395; Maine, 3,590- Massa- chusetts and Rhode Island, 13,112; Michigan 5,880; Minnesota, 2,739; Missouri 4 606- Ne^v Hampshire, 2,234; New York, 12,163-' Ohio 8,945; Pennsylvania, 13,288; Texas, 2 250- Wis- consin, 3,149. ST. PALL ASPIRES Seeks the Honor of Being the Next Convention City. Louisville, Aug. 27.—Grand Generalissi- mo George M. Moulton of Chi- cago stated that the election of officers of the grand encampment un- doubtedly will be the usual perfunctory affair it has been for years past. Grand Master Lloyd will retire and will be suc- ceeded by Deputy Grand Master Stod- dard of Texas. Officers under him will advance one grade. This will leave one vacancy to be contested for, the junior grand wardenship, and a hot skirmish is expected. In connection with this office nearly every grand commander at the conclave is regarded as a candidate. The selection of the meeting place for the next conclave will be one of the last things to come before the grand encamp- ment. St. Paul is a strong candidate; Milwaukee is making a strong bid, and S,an Francisco is also represented by an earnest band of vigorous advocates. Den- ver and Cincinnati are in line while St. Louis and various cities of New England are regarded as possibilities. BRAZEN BARRISTER Secures a Divorce Illegally and Pockets a Fat Fee. Hmw York Sun Spmolml Sofvlcb Waterbury, Conn., Aug. 27.—Judge Shumway has formally expelled Patrick J. Donahy, of Stafford, from the Connecti- cut bar. Donahy's offense was the most brazen ever heard of tn the state and he made no defense. He brought a woman to Rockville, held a court In a room in a hotel and with a man who posed as Judge Prentice of the superior court, granted her a divorce and took a fat fee. MILL AND ELEVATOR FIRE THE MINNEAPOLIS JOUKNAL. AN EDITOR ON ICE Cox Eluded Al Ferris by Dodging Into a Refrigerator. TROUBLE IS NOT ALL POLITICAL Personal Enmity Existed for a Louk Time—Cause of l.umt Week's Encounter. Special to The Journal. Brainerd, Minn., Aug. 27.—This town hasn't ceased to talk, and will not for some time to come, of the personal en- counter between Legislator and Banker Al Ferris, and Editor A. S. Cox of the Brainerd Arena described in The Journal yesterday. The men have been enemies for a long time, but no one expected they would ever come to blows. The Arena on Friday had a short story to the effect that "a prominent politician" had* gone up to one of the towns on the Minnesota & International, accompanied by a physician, to inquire into the cause of a peculiar accident to and the subse- quent illness of a Brainerd woman. The editor said that the story would probably be given to the public when more of the facts could be learned. No names were mentioned, but every- body understood that by "a prominent Brainerd politician" Mr. Ferris was meant and that the editor sought to make a covert attack upon him, the inference naturally being that the "politician" was interested in the woman to a degree not sanctioned by good morals nor possibly by law. Everybody knew this was Ti Sing at Ferris, for his trouble with the editor ha 3 not been purely political, but has grown out of lodge and social friction as well.' There is a difference of opinion as to whether Ferris struck at Cox with a ham- mer. Somo say he did and that the weapon, because of the force of his swing, flew from his hand and gave the editor a glancing blow, inflicting a slight scalp wound. Others positively say that while Mr. Ferris made a lunge at Cox he had no weapon of any kind to start with. They declare that when Cox began to run and yell, Ferris picked up a hammer that was is the store and started in pursuit. The editor escaped a drubbing by dodg- ing into a butcher shop and taking refuge |In the ice box. The proprietors were at- tracted by his cries of "Help! Help! Fer- ris is coming," and aided him in closing j the big door of the cavernous chest. I Kere Cox remained until friends of Fer- ris had succeeded in cooling him down. Cox was cool enough as it was. It is known that Mr. Ferris made no such trip as imputed by the editor to the "politician," and the doctor in question wil swear that Mr. Ferris did 'not ac- company him on the mission ascribed to them or any other. Sentiment here, as might materially be Bupposed, is with Mr. Ferris. Cox is about 82 and unmarried. He came here from St. Paul. Whether he can screw his courage to tbe point of gathering his "facts" and giving them to the public, as .promised, remains to be seen. If he does continue this particular kind of warfare on the man who has in- curred his enmity, it is predicted that something will drop and drop hard when round No. 2 is pulled off. HAD ONE WIFE TOO MANY REQUISITION FOR A ST. PAIL MAX Sheriff of Cascade County, Mont., Hai Papers for a. Former Great Falls Society Man. Special to The Journal. Helena, Mont., Aug. 27.—Sheriff H. E. Brimer of Cascade county has left for St. Paul carrying the requisition of Gov- ernor Toole upon Governor Van Sant for the removal from Minnesota of Jefferson D. Raser, charged with bigamy. In 1898, while living in Great Falls and moving in the best society, Raser married Christiana McKay, of Sand Cou- lee. Three weeks afterwards he deserted her. Investigations developed that he already had a wife and five children liv- ing in Illinois. The authorities have been looking for him for over two years and recently lo- cated him working in a St. Paul whole- sale establishment. THRESHING THE GOLDEN N. D. MACHINES GET BUSY AGAIN Week of Bad Weather Succeeded by the Real Tiling— Much Early Fall Plowing. Special to The Journal. Grand Forks. N. D., Aug. \ 27. After nearly a week's delay on account of rains, the welcome hum of the threshing ma- chine was heard yesterday in all direc- tions. The wheat is in fairly good con- dition, but would not be damaged by a few more days of good drying weather. Ap- prehension is felt that a wet fall may en- sue, and for this reason the farmer feels that it is better to thresh the grain even if it is a little damp than to run the risk of bad weather. The outlook for fine weather is excellent \u25a0 at this time, and should it continue for two weeks the great bulk of the wheat of this section of the state, as well as that in Polk county, will be in the elevators and granaries. There has not been enough threshing as yet to make an estimate of the yield that would be of value. South of the city, where most of the threshing has been done, farmers are well pleased with the results. Barley fields have turned out well, but the barley acreage is not as large as it has been in the past. While it is conceded much of the flax is "off" this year, still there are many fine pieces south of town, and the returns will be very satisfactory. There will be more early plowing this fall than for years past, and this will leave the ground in almost as good shape as though it has been summer fallowed. The large corn acreage this year, the re- turns from which will be excellent, is another factor that will result in the land being in excellent shape for crops next year. Costly Russell Miller Plant at James- town Destroyed. Special to The Journal. Jamestown, N. D., Aug. 27. —The Rus- sell Miller mill was struck by lightning this morning, and the mill and 70,000- --bushel elevator were burned and are a total loss. The mill had been undergoing expensive repairs, and was about ready to start for a long run. The insurance was $24,000 on the building. There was little grain In store. The mill will be rebuilt at once. EASTERN* BEET SUGAR COMPANY. Trenton, Aug. 27.—The Eastern Sugar com- pany to manufacture sugar from beets was incorporated here to-day, capital $2,000,000.

At no time in the history of disease has there been such an alarming increase in the number of cases of any particular malady as that of kidney and bladder troubles now preying upon the people of this country. To-day we see a relative, a friend or an acquaintance apparently well, and in a few days we may be grieved to learn of their serious illness or sudden death, caused by that fatal type of kidney trou- ble—Bright's disease. Kidney trouble often becomes advanced into acute stages before the afflicted is aware of its presence; that is why we read of so many sudden deaths of prom- inent business and professional men, phy- sicians and others. They have neglected to stop the leak in time. While scientists are puzzling their brains to find out the cause, each indi- vidual can, by a little precaution, avoid the chances of contracting dreaded and dangerous kidney trouble, or eradicate it completely from their system if already afflicted. Many precious lives might have been, and many more can yet be saved by paying attention to the kidneys. It is the mission of this company to benefit people at every opportunity, and therefore advise all who have any symp- toms of kidney or bladder trouble to write to-day to Dr. Klimer & Co., Binghamton, N. V., for a free sample bottle of Swamp- Root, the celebrated specific which is hav- ing such a great demand and remarkable success in the cure of the most distress- ing kidney and bladder troubles. With the sample bottle of Swamp-Root will also be sent a pamphlet and treatise of valuable information. NINE UNDER ARREST Lawlessness Rampant on Upper Michigan Ranges. I ONE MAN DEAD; THREE WOUNDED Shooting on the Public Highway by Bibulous Italians, Germans and Finns. Houguton, Mich., Aug. 27.—Dominick Porto, Italian, and Phil Burkhardt, Ger- man, two South Range miners, are in St. Joseph's hospital at Hancock severely wounded, while Victoria Toosila, a Finn, lies dead at the Atlantic, and his brother Matt has a bullet wound in his arm, as a result of outbreaks of lawlessness on the South Range Sunday afternoon and night. Burkhardt and two fellow-countrymen were going on foot from the Atlantic mine to the Champion, when they met two men in the road, one of whom had some whisky. Burkhardt asked him for a drink, and the stranger pulled his revolver and fired, the bullet striking Burkhardt. Two hours later Dominick Porto and two fellow Italians had a similar encoun- ter at the same place, Porto being shot iv the thigh, inflicting a serious wound. Another and fatal affair occurred at a saloon near the Atlantic, when Victor Toosila was shot through the back and killed as he stepped out of the door. His brother was also wounded. Matt Saakari, with whom they had had an altercation earlier in the evening, is under arrest, as are nine others, held either on suspicion or as witnesses. Special to The Journal. TO SWINDLE BOOKMAKERS Alonzo J. Whiteman Said to Be in the Scheme. Saratoga, N. V., Aug. 27.—Edward G. Greenwall of New York, a young man 34 years old and said to be more than ordi- narily well connected, was arrested yes- terday by William A. Pinkerton on the charge of grand larceny preferred by "Eddy" Burke the bookmaker. The ar- rest uncovered a new and elaborate scheme to swindle bookmakers, planned by that old friend of the police of many American cities, Alonzo J. Whiteman a former state senator of Minnesota. On the morning of Aug. 13 "Eddy" Burke and "Sol" Leichenstein, two of the best-known bookmakers In the country each received a dispatch which read as follows: "John Kerr deposited this day to your credit $300, Bank of New Amsterdam." About an hour after these dispatches were received, each bookmaker got a dis- patch direct from Kerr directing him to place $300 on a particular horse in a cer- tain race and place all the winnings should there be any, on a certain horse in another race. The horses won and $9«0 was placed to his credit. On Aug. 15 Mr. Kerr appeared in the ring at the track, introduced himself to the bookmaker and asked for the amount standing to his credit. After Kerr had made some $2,000 out of the deal it was found that the telegrams were bogus. Kerr, whose real name is Greenwall, confessed that Whiteman had planned the scheme. "BLACK ART" PRACTITIONER Schuck Apparently Amounts to No More Than His Name. ] Wow York Sun Saootat Smmvlom. . Shamokin, Pa., Aug. 27.—Jacob Schuck was imprisoned yesterday for practicing the black art." Nicholas S. Adams brought suit. The case will be tried at the September sessions of the criminal court. A daughter of Adams grew ill some time ago, and after several phy- sicians failed to cure her, Schuck's services were enlisted. He said she was bewitched and agreed to cure her for 18.50. He was paid the money, where- upon he ran his fingers through the girl's hair, stroked her "face : and tickled her ears. She showed no sign of improve- ment alter a weeks' treatment, where- upon Adams demanded the return of his money, but Schuck refused it. He is also accused by William Deitrlch of taking fees in return for trying to remove alleged witches' spells from cows in order that the latter would yield more milk.

D., Aug. 27.—At Forest City, eighteen miles west of here, A. B. Daly was shot and instant- ly killed. Rome G. Glover, for- merly a saloonkeeper at that place, is charged with the crime. The killing seems to have been the result of a feud of some standing with dark hints of a wom- an at the bottom of it. Glover and Daly had had frequent differences and each had threatened to kill the other. One day last week they had a fight and Glover was badly whipped by Daly, who is much the larger man. The shooting was done from the second story of Glover's residence as Daly was passing by, the fatal shot striking Daly near the outside corner of the right eye, passing through his mouth, out at the neck and into and down through the body. It is said that, not knowing whether he was surely dead, the murderer shot him the second time to make sure work of it. Glover was formerly a jockey, is a small man and almost insignificant in size. Da- ly was a large man, weighing 200 pounds. This is the first killing that ever took place in this county. Immediately after the killing Glover came to Gettysburg and surrendered himself to the sheriff. school Shoes 20% Below Regular Prices We hare bought from the New Him Shoe Co. and from a local merchant 7,'i00 pairs of School Shoes, of reliable quality and modern shapes, at 20 per cent less than regular price.

«'Sympathetic" Strikers?

CONFLICTING STORIES CONTINUE

Meanwhile Even v Microscopic Ex-

amination Would DiscloseNo Olive Branch.

Pittsburg, Aug. 27.—The steel strine

situation was featureless to-day. Nosooner are rumors spread of negotia-tions for another peace conferencethan both sides hurry deny theaccuracy of the reports. In themeantime, the leaders of tl*e work-ers assert that they are constantlymaking fresh inroads upon the mills ofcombine* while on the other hand the |great steel combination officials announceplacidly that In every Instance wherethey have attempted to start one of theirplants they have succeeded and that theycan get all the men they want.

That success has attended their ef-forts is evident at Wellsville, Painters'mills, Clark's and Lindsay & McCutch-eon's. The first three named are run-,

ning practically full to-day and new menare being taken on every day. Fifty ad-ditional men were added to the force atPainter's yesterday and several addi-tions to the force at Lindsay &McCutcheon's were made this morning, jThe management of this plant expects to jresume in all departments within a week i

or as soon as the new boilers can be con- Inected up. The Carnegie upper and lowermills and the works at Homestead andDuquesne are running with the usualcomplement of men and there are no in-dications that tee strikers will succeedin getting the employes to join them.It is understood an effort will be made Ito-night to put on a third shift at the ii tar Tin Plate mills and that - the menliave been engaged.

Anxious to Know.

Labor officials and workmen represent-ing the Continental and PennsylvaniaVube company of Pittsburg and the Na-tional Tube company of McKeesport werein sesion all day yesterday discussing !Lie strike. It was finally decided to aski resident Shaffer tor a formal expres-sion of the altitude of the Amalgamated i

uaeociation towards the workers who are |on a sympathetic strike and who, it is !understood, have struck without ordersfrom their lodge leaders. The workmen jdesire to know what will become of them jin case of a settlement and whether the jAmalgamated association will include !them in future agreements.

The striking machinists of the Na-tional Tube company have been asked, it iis said, to return to work in order to)!make extensive repairs to the machinery. ]This move was received by the mer- !chants of McKeesport with considerabale !joy. The machinists are considering the irequest and will act definitely in a dayor two. The works were in steady opera-tion before the strike for more than a!year and extensive repairs are necessary. !

So far no plans have been laid for the \resumption of operations in the Tube !plants and so far as known there is no Iintention of. starting up in the immediate !future. At the Demmler works of theAmerican Tin Plato company the fires are jstill kept up, but no attempt has been jmade to resume. Manager Pittock claims !to have the promise of a number of mento return when wanted. ,

LIGHTNING AIDS PROPHETESSColored Congregation Stampeded in

Short Order.Special to The Journal.

Galesburg, 111.. Aug. 27.—Mrs. MaryLark, a negro prophetess, caused a stam-pede in the African Methodist church herelast night. Mrs. Lark had been appeal-ing fervently to a large congregation torepent of their sins and there had beenbut few "amens." Finally, shouting atthe top of her voice she denounced Gales-burg for its wickedness and hard-hearted-ness.

"I foretell," she screamed, "the de-struction of Galesburg in the near future.In Tennessee I predicted the overthrow ofa town, and in a few hours the Lord 'senta floo.d and the streets were filled withdead bodies."

As Mrs. Lark said this a vivid flash oflightning dazzled her audience, which wasalready highly excited. Thunder roaredand a dark cloud was seen through thewindows. The entire congregation brokefor doors and windows and in five minutesnot a soul was left in the neighborhood.While no one was hurt in the jam therewere narrow escapes.

TO SILENCE GOSSIPGrows Inciaiie in Efforts to Prove His

Marriage Hmt Mercenary.

How "YorkSun Special ServiceBoston. Aug. 27.—Madness has -cast its

shadow upon the life of F. N. Morse, ayoung banker of Worcester, who is con-nected with a banking institution in Bos-ton. The young financier is in a paddedcell in Fitchburg, and will probably be re-moved to Westboro insane asylum.

It is eaid he worked beyond his powersIn order to silence the tongues that spreadthe slander that he married his wife forher money. Morse, who started in life asa poor boy, informed his friends that heintended to achieve so brilliant a successbefore he was forty as to give the lie tothe accusation. He rapidly worked up-ward. A year ago he became a memberof a Boston company, and soon after hisremoval to this city suffered an epilepticfit, caused, as the physicians said, by toogreat mental strain. Four weeks ago Mr.Morse and his wife went to Fitchburg.Mr. Morse was ill from overwork, and onSaturday he developed unmistakable signsof insanity. His wife is heartbroken.

320,108. The order is in a much more healthycondition than it was before the promulgationof the decision that voluntary remaining al'on-afflliate in lodge or chapter for sixmonths would affect membership in a com-mandery, for now every member of the orderis .sustaining it, root and branch.

Referring to the results of the war withSpain the report says:Where it was dangerous to be a Mason our

crder may now securely spread its humaniz-ing and elevating influences. The schoolhouseand the lodge can labor together to bruehaside ignorance and superstition and teachthe downtrodden people the blessings of civiland religious liberty. We should indeed feelproud-as we <10-that a templar was theguiding spirit in bringing about this happychange to so many human beings Thesphere of our usefulness ia gradually enlar-ging.

ST. PALL ASPIRES

Seeks the Honor of Being the NextConvention City.

Louisville, Aug. 27.—Grand Generalissi-mo George M. Moulton of Chi-cago stated that the election ofofficers of the grand encampment un-doubtedly will be the usual perfunctoryaffair it has been for years past. GrandMaster Lloyd will retire and will be suc-ceeded by Deputy Grand Master Stod-dard of Texas. Officers under him willadvance one grade. This will leave onevacancy to be contested for, the juniorgrand wardenship, and a hot skirmish isexpected. In connection with this officenearly every grand commander at theconclave is regarded as a candidate.

The selection of the meeting place forthe next conclave will be one of the lastthings to come before the grand encamp-ment. St. Paul is a strong candidate;Milwaukee is making a strong bid, andS,an Francisco is also represented by anearnest band of vigorous advocates. Den-ver and Cincinnati are in line while St.Louis and various cities of New Englandare regarded as possibilities.

MILL AND ELEVATOR FIRE

THE MINNEAPOLIS JOUKNAL.

AN EDITOR ON ICECox Eluded Al Ferris by Dodging

Into a Refrigerator.

TROUBLE IS NOT ALL POLITICAL

Personal Enmity Existed for a LoukTime—Cause of l.umt Week's

Encounter.

Special to The Journal.Brainerd, Minn., Aug. 27.—This town

hasn't ceased to talk, and will not forsome time to come, of the personal en-counter between Legislator and BankerAl Ferris, and Editor A. S. Cox of theBrainerd Arena described in TheJournal yesterday. The men havebeen enemies for a long time, but no oneexpected they would ever come to blows.

The Arena on Friday had a short storyto the effect that "a prominent politician"had* gone up to one of the towns on theMinnesota & International, accompaniedby a physician, to inquire into the causeof a peculiar accident to and the subse-quent illness of a Brainerd woman. Theeditor said that the story would probablybe given to the public when more of thefacts could be learned.

No names were mentioned, but every-body understood that by "a prominentBrainerd politician" Mr. Ferris wasmeant and that the editor sought to makea covert attack upon him, the inferencenaturally being that the "politician" wasinterested in the woman to a degree notsanctioned by good morals nor possiblyby law. Everybody knew this was Ti Singat Ferris, for his trouble with the editorha 3not been purely political, but hasgrown out of lodge and social friction aswell.'

There is a difference of opinion as towhether Ferris struck at Cox with a ham-mer. Somo say he did and that theweapon, because of the force of his swing,flew from his hand and gave the editor aglancing blow, inflicting a slight scalpwound. Others positively say that whileMr. Ferris made a lunge at Cox he had noweapon of any kind to start with. Theydeclare that when Cox began to run andyell, Ferris picked up a hammer that wasis the store and started in pursuit.

The editor escaped a drubbing by dodg-ing into a butcher shop and taking refuge

|In the ice box. The proprietors were at-tracted by his cries of "Help! Help! Fer-ris is coming," and aided him in closing

j the big door of the cavernous chest.I Kere Cox remained until friends of Fer-ris had succeeded in cooling him down.Cox was cool enough as it was.

It is known that Mr. Ferris made nosuch trip as imputed by the editor to the"politician," and the doctor in questionwil swear that Mr. Ferris did 'not ac-company him on the mission ascribed tothem or any other. Sentiment here, asmight materially be Bupposed, is withMr. Ferris.

Cox is about 82 and unmarried. Hecame here from St. Paul. Whether hecan screw his courage to tbe point ofgathering his "facts" and giving them tothe public, as .promised, remains to beseen. If he does continue this particularkind of warfare on the man who has in-curred his enmity, it is predicted thatsomething will drop and drop hard whenround No. 2 is pulled off.

THRESHING THE GOLDENN. D. MACHINES GET BUSY AGAIN

Week of Bad Weather Succeeded by

the Real Tiling—Much Early

Fall Plowing.

Special to The Journal.Grand Forks. N. D., Aug.\ 27. —After

nearly a week's delay on account of rains,the welcome hum of the threshing ma-chine was heard yesterday in all direc-tions. The wheat is in fairly good con-dition, but would not be damaged by a fewmore days of good drying weather. Ap-prehension is felt that a wet fall may en-sue, and for this reason the farmer feelsthat it is better to thresh the grain evenif it is a little damp than to run the riskof bad weather. The outlook for fineweather is excellent \u25a0 at this time, andshould it continue for two weeks the greatbulk of the wheat of this section of thestate, as well as that in Polk county, willbe in the elevators and granaries.

There has not been enough threshing asyet to make an estimate of the yield thatwould be of value. South of the city,where most of the threshing has beendone, farmers are well pleased with theresults. Barley fields have turned outwell, but the barley acreage is not aslarge as it has been in the past. While itis conceded much of the flax is "off" thisyear, still there are many fine pieces southof town, and the returns will be verysatisfactory.

There will be more early plowing thisfall than for years past, and this willleave the ground in almost as good shapeas though it has been summer fallowed.The large corn acreage this year, the re-turns from which will be excellent, isanother factor that will result in the landbeing in excellent shape for crops nextyear.

IS IT AN EPIDEMIC?

Vital Statistics Show an Alarming In-crease in an Already Prevailing

Disease—Are Any Exempt?

At no time in the history of diseasehas there been such an alarming increasein the number of cases of any particularmalady as that of kidney and bladdertroubles now preying upon the people ofthis country.

To-day we see a relative, a friend or anacquaintance apparently well, and in afew days we may be grieved to learn oftheir serious illness or sudden death,caused by that fatal type of kidney trou-ble—Bright's disease.

Kidney trouble often becomes advancedinto acute stages before the afflicted isaware of its presence; that is why weread of so many sudden deaths of prom-inent business and professional men, phy-sicians and others. They have neglectedto stop the leak in time.

While scientists are puzzling theirbrains to find out the cause, each indi-vidual can, by a little precaution, avoidthe chances of contracting dreaded anddangerous kidney trouble, or eradicate itcompletely from their system if alreadyafflicted. Many precious lives might havebeen, and many more can yet be saved bypaying attention to the kidneys.

It is the mission of this company tobenefit people at every opportunity, andtherefore advise all who have any symp-toms of kidney or bladder trouble to writeto-day to Dr. Klimer & Co., Binghamton,N. V., for a free sample bottle of Swamp-Root, the celebrated specific which is hav-ing such a great demand and remarkablesuccess in the cure of the most distress-ing kidney and bladder troubles. Withthe sample bottle of Swamp-Root willalso be sent a pamphlet and treatise ofvaluable information.

"John Kerr deposited this day to yourcredit $300, Bank of New Amsterdam."

About an hour after these dispatcheswere received, each bookmaker got a dis-patch direct from Kerr directing him toplace $300 on a particular horse in a cer-tain race and place all the winningsshould there be any, on a certain horse inanother race. The horses won and $9«0was placed to his credit.

On Aug. 15 Mr. Kerr appeared in thering at the track, introduced himself tothe bookmaker and asked for the amountstanding to his credit.After Kerr had made some $2,000 out ofthe deal it was found that the telegrams

were bogus. Kerr, whose real name isGreenwall, confessed that Whiteman hadplanned the scheme.

S. D. MAN ASSASSINATEDDALY SHOT DOWN IN THE STREET

Feud Ends In a Murder In ForestCity, a Missouri River

Town.

Gettysburg, S. D., Aug. 27.—At ForestCity, eighteen miles west of here,A. B. Daly was shot and instant-ly killed. Rome G. Glover, for-merly a saloonkeeper at that place,is charged with the crime. The killingseems to have been the result of a feud ofsome standing with dark hints of a wom-an at the bottom of it. Glover and Dalyhad had frequent differences and eachhad threatened to kill the other. One daylast week they had a fight and Gloverwas badly whipped by Daly, who is muchthe larger man.

The shooting was done from the secondstory of Glover's residence as Daly waspassing by, the fatal shot striking Dalynear the outside corner of the right eye,passing through his mouth, out at theneck and into and down through the body.

It is said that, not knowing whether hewas surely dead, the murderer shot himthe second time to make sure work of it.

Glover was formerly a jockey, is a smallman and almost insignificant in size. Da-ly was a large man, weighing 200 pounds.

This is the first killing that ever tookplace in this county. Immediately afterthe killing Glover came to Gettysburg andsurrendered himself to the sheriff.
