STRIKERS ARE QUIET Trouble at Paterson May Be Settled Soon, NO TROOPS WILL BE ASKED FOR Employers Show a Deposition to Slake ConceMKioxiK on the Gen eral Wage Scale Shaffer'a Candidacy. PATERSON. N. J., April 24. The ope rators of silk dye houses made no gen eral attempt to resume m business this morning, and no disorder occurred in any of the strike districts. Many of the striking helpers appeared in the vicinity of the shops which they quitted to en force their demand for higher pay, but they made no demonstration. The police reserves assembled at 6 o'clock and were placed In positions to be quickly available for any service that might be required. At the works of the Wiedemann Silk Dyeing & Finishing Company it was stated that 40 men were at work, and that some of them had resumed their places despite threats that they would be killed If they did so. It was announced at the meeting of strikers at Riverside that the Gautschy Dyeing Company had signed the scale. Thirty men from that shop were on strike and it was unanimously voted to per mit them to return to work. Favor able reports concerning several other shops were received, but in a number of instances the strikers committee failed to meet the owners. There wis a re newal today of the suggestion that mili tia be "asked for to protect the property of the firms whose men have struck, and some of the dye house operators called on Mayor Hinchcliffe to discuss the matter. The Mayor did not favor the idea, taking the ground that the police were fully capable of handling the situa tion. The operators fear trouble if they attempt to stsrt their plants, and are doubtful about the ability of the police to protect them. ' The opinion- was expressed this after noon that there would be an early set tlement of the strike. The operators of the dyeing plants hare refused to con elder the demands of the men for 20 cents an hour for learners and a flve-year contract, but have shown a disposition to make concessions on the general wage scale. It was thought that if the em ployers agreed to advance wages the strikers would recede from their ex treme position and accept a compromise.' has been extended until June 1, because of the claim that the manufacturers make of having received no official notice, the' notice contained in the press not being recognized. President McMahon says an official notice will go out at once. BRODRICK RAISES STORM. Heated Debate Over CnrtTrrlKht Case in House of Commons. LONDON. April 24The forcibledeten tion in South Africa of Albert Cartwright, who, while editor of the South. African News, charged Lord Kitchener, prior 1o the engagement with General Dewet, wi ordering his officers to shoot all prisoners, formed the subject of a heated debate In the fiouse of Commons this evening. John Uorley, Liberal, moved the adjournment of the House, the success of which propo sition would practically amount to a vote of censure on the government in general, and on Lord Kitchener and Lord Mllner in particular. Mr. Morley pointed out that 3Ir. Cartwright, who had served a year's THE NOBILITY JS SHOCKED THAT THE KAISER SHOULD ENTER TAIN UNTITLED BUSINESS MEN. Aristocratic Press Fears Tlint the Merchant Princes Will Get the Upper Hand. BERLIN, April 24. Emperor William Is bitterly criticised In aristocratic drawing rooms because untitled business men con stituted the majority of his guests during his recent excursion in the North Sea on the North German Lloyd steamer Kron prinz "Wllhelm. So significant is the Em peror's graclousness toward these men regarded by the old aristocracy that news papers all over Germany with aristocratic leanings have, during the last two days, begun, a regular editorial campaign against the new policy Introduced into was considerable risk of fraud in allow- Ine Its re-exDortatlon. It would be i drawback on the article produced in this country. But he was inclined to meet the wishes of the deputation. The Chan cellor was also prepared to consider the question of differentiating the amount of the tax to be placed on various feeding meals. LONDON, April 24. Sir Michael Hicks Beach, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, replying to the letter of an inquirer, says he fears it will be impossible to exempt from the new duties grain, . etc., which was contracted for prior to tho introduc tion of the budget. American Stocks on Paris Bourse. PARIS, April 25. The Paris edition of the New Tork Herald publishes an inter view this morning with, Lazare Welller, councillor of the committee on foreign commerce of France, regarding the al leged project of J. P.

Shaffer's Fate Depends on Adoption of Wage Scale Report. WHEELING, W. Va.. April 24. The Amalgamated Association convention transacted only minor business of little importance today, and this will remain the fcltuatlon until the several Important com mittees now meeting daily have completed their reports. These reports are expected to reach the convention Friday. Interest tonight centers in the report of the wage scale committee, and pre dictions are freely made that both ma jority and minority reports will be sub mitted to the convention. Although the personnel of the committee Is largely of Shaffer's friends, it leaks out that a strong minority of the wage committee? is fighting indorsement of Shaffer's ac tion In signing scales in advance of the convention. It Is conceded that the scales are as advantageous to the members of the association as any ever secured in the past!, but .the objectors are making their fight on constitutional grounds and reply that while the scales In themselves may be satisfactory to every one con cerned, a dangerous precedent will have been established until this convention sets on them the stamp of its disap proval for the manner in which they are signed up. This opposition has a bearing, too, on the presidency, and if the con vention adopts the minority report the election of another than Shaffer can be accounted practically a surety. Shaf fer's downfall means probably the elec tion of Assistant Secretary Tighe to the Presidency. In fact, he Is the only man who has been thought of as an opponent of Shaffer. JAMES M'MILLAN, OF MICHIGAN. STEPHEN B. ELKINS, OF WEST VIR .GINIA. The men upon whom the hopes of Oregon rest In the river and harbor bill, now being: considered In the conference commit tee of the Senate and House of Representatives, are Senators James McMillan, of Michigan, and Stephen B.

Senators Elklns and McMillan are both reported favorably disposed to tho Columbia River, and the third Senate member. Senator J. H. Berry, of Arkansas, while not opposed to Western im provements, Is regarded as having first at heart the Improvement of the Southern streams. The House members will make a hard fight to havo their bill adopted. DATOS ARE SUBMITTING BLOODLESS VICTORY ACHIEVED IN MINDANAO. Cnptnre of the Saltan of Piialo's Fort by Colonel Baldwin Has a Salutary Effect. MANILA, April 24. Lieutenant-Colonel Frank D. Baldwin, who is operating against the Moros on the Island of Minda nao, telegraphs that the capture of the Sultan of Pualo's .fort has had a most salutary effect. The datos are sub mitting. White flags are taking the place of the red battle flags. The Sultan of Annudtbak urges that time be given him in which to give up the assassins of the American soldiers, and says that the ad vance of the Americans will mean "brist ling cannon and impassable barriers, with God Judging the right." Colonel Baldwin has received orders to suspend operations against the datos. General George W. Davis, in command at ' Zamtioanga, Mindanao, believes that the majority of the datos are friendly, and that they have not had time to co operate. He thinks their alarm may cease and that practically a bloodless victory "has been, achieved. DID NOT KNOW SHE HAD KIDNEY TROUBLE Thousands Have .Kidney Trouble and Never Suspect It.

Bishop Henry C. Potter," of New York, in his second address of the series on the re sponsibilities of citizenship at Yale, dis cussed the subject of the relation of the citizen and the capitalist, and argued that the panacea for the labor situation is not any particular method or plan, but greater confidence between employer and employe: between capitalist and laborer, and a disregard of any caste distinction. "Almost the worst enemy of human society is the spirit of caste, and the tragic element in the constitution of our modern society is that under forms of government that profess long ago to have removed and abandoned it, it still rears its head in forms more mischievous than any it has ever assumed; for while we may be patient with the caste spirit when it survives as a product of earlier ages of tribal distinction or feudal tradition or distinguished ancestry or social culture, it becomes, when we see it, as too often we see it today, the mere Incarnation of material possessions held in huge bulk and adroit association, then, I say, it be comes a menace alike to the right of the weak and the freedom of tne poor; a caste of capitalists separated by practically in separable barriera from a caste of labor ers means social anarchy and industrial war." imprisonment for libel, now desired to, come to England, and that his detention was illegal, unconstitutional and tyran nical. He added that the explanation of Lord Stanley, the Financial Secretary of the "War Office, who served in the South African war as chief press censor, that the government did not think it desirable to Increase the number of anti-British propagandists In this country, was tho most outrageous heard in the House since Simon de Montford invented Parliament. The Secretary of State for War, Mr. Brodrick, in the course of a reply, raised a storm, by saying that, although Mr. Cartwright had served his legal sentence, the question of his liberation was still "sub judlce." This brought forth a pro test from Sir "William Vernon Harcourt, Liberal, who declared that such a propo sition was scandalous and contrary to the elementary principles of freedom? Win ston Spencer v-uurchill. Conservative, also delivered a few caustic sentences, saying he hoped the House would force the gov ernment to withdraw within the limits of the law and observe the constitution. Balfour, the government leader, came to the support of the sorely harassed "War Secretary, and contended that the govern ment was Justified in detaining even a British subject if it thought his wander ings were calculated to Injure the Interests of South Africa. Those voting for tho adjournment would be condemning Lord Kitchener and Lord Mllner, in whose keeping at this moment rested the hopes for peace. James Bryce, Liberal, and Sir Robert Reid, Liberal, twitted the Ministers for again interposing Lord Kitchener" as a buffer between -the government and the House. They both denounced the present action of the government as a gross abuse of power. The spirit of revolt spread to the gov-' ernment benches. Ian Malcolm, Con servative, who is said to have been here tofore an unswerving supporter of the government, warmly repudiated Mr. Bal four's argument that those voting for tha adjournment would be showing themselves careless of British honor. After such an court life. While the German nobility has long noted with apprehension his majesty's liking for the company of the men who are making industrial and com mercial Germany, his public entertain ment of so. many business men Is accepted as a deliberate recognition Of that class at court. The Cologne Volks-Zeltung says it per ceives that increasing the social position of men of great capital will make the American Idea supreme in Germany. Em peror William, of course, has the right to select his own company! continues the Co logne paper. The public also has the right to draw Its own conclusions, and It Is 'justified In inferring that his majesty, if surrounded fully by the princes of gold, will be influenced.by their Ideas. "The Emperor properly selects the most varied Intercourse," says the paper. "He wants to hear every side for himself, and, naturally, under the circumstances, all sorts of views reach the imperial ear. The question now Is, Which 'side will gain a predominant influence? If the conserv ative agrarian element is pressed to the wall and if the men who have written on their banners, 'an industrial state,' 'world trade,' and 'world plan,' get the upper hand, then Germany will face the mightiest Internal transformation which modern history records." In this connection, tho Grand Duke of Hesse, a brother-in-law of Admiral Prince Henry of Prussia, has been much criti cized for sitting at a table and drinking beer with a prominent Socialist Deputy, Ulrlch of the Hsslan Diet, with whom the Duke had a long conversation on pub lic questions. The Duke's apologists cite the fact that M. Mlllerand, the Socialist French Minister of Commerce, was deco rated by the Czar, and that Prince Henry shook hands with laborers while in the United States. as the present fiscal laws are not modified. Assistance for Jamaicans. KINGSTON, Jamaica, April 24. With the sanction of the Colonial Secretary, Joseph Chamberlain, which was obtained Tuesday, the Jamaican Government has introduced a bill in the Legislature pro viding financial assistance and guaran teeing the interest on loans of money used for the erection of central sugar factories in various parts of the island. The In troduction of the measure was received with great satisfaction. Relieved by American Demand. BERLIN, April 24. A report of the Chamber of Commerce of Solingen, Prus sia, says the depression In the cutlery Industry has been partly relieved by large American orders. Although Solin gen goods are now largely made in the United States, behind the tariff wall, the report goes"on to say, still the American manufacturers are unable to meet the demand, which requires them to supple ment their production with German goods.

WASHINGTON, April 25. Attorney General Corbin has received a letter from Henry C. McCook, of Philadelphia, in re gard to the reported, orders of General Smith to destroy all Filipinos found in arms 10 years pf age and upward. "Sergeant Brown, honorably discharged after full service from Company G, Sec ond Regiment, in which my son, First Lieutenant Paul McCook, is an officer," says Mr. McCook, "visited me, this week. His company was stationed in Tayabas Province, and he -said he had never seen the water cure practiced, or any other methods of torture. I asked him what was the physical standing of a youth of 10 years In the Philippines. He answered that a 10-year-old lad would about rate with a 15-year-old boy here. He further Informed me that boys of that age and up to 12 could bear arms, greatly to the dis advantage of their opponents; that he had seen youths of that age and two or three years older among the insurrectos and ladroncs captured, and he further said that sometimes there would be a consider able proportjon of such boys In the hostile ranks, as represented by those -who sur rendered and those taken prisoners. "Of course, it Is most shocking to our Ideas" of what Is allowable, even under the extremest exigencies of warfare, to think of chllOren of 10 or 12 years of age as be ing subject to the severities administered to their seniors. Yet It occurred to me that the above facts, If they be stated, may put a somewhat different color upon the reputed order of General Smith." Mission to the Vatican. ROME. April 24. There is considerable mystification at the Vatican regarding the reported United States mission to be ap pointed to discuss the taking over of lands of the religious orders In the Philip pines.

A bulletin Issued from Castle Loo at 3 o'clock this afternoon said: "A recurrence of high temperature this afternoon makes it manifest that every care is still requisite."
