fHE MORNING OREGON AN, THURSDAY, AUGUST 21, 1902. 3 KRUGERISCONTRARY Stormy ConferenceWith Boer Generals at Utrecht. CLINGS TO HIS OLD IDEAS Bitterly Upbraids Leaders for Giving TJp Boer IndependenceHopes tor United South. Africa ' Under Dutch Flag. UTRECHT. Holland, Aug. 20. The Boer generals, Eotha, Dewet arid Delarey, ac companied by Dr. Leyds and Messrs. Fischer, Wessele, "Wolmarans and Reltz and others, arrived here today from The Hague, to visit ex-President Kruger and concult -with hlra on the South African situation. Large crowds warmly applaud ed the Boers. The spectators at the sta tion sang the Boer national anthem. The conference lasted for three hours. According to some reports. It was rather stormy. At the end of an hour and a half, the delegates withdrew, leaving Gen erals Botha, Dewet and Delarey together with Mr. Kruger. Little Is publicly known as to what took place, but It Is under stood that the generals found the ex President of the Transvaal In no way In clined to acquiesce to British domination In South Africa and still clinging to the idea of a united South Africa under the Boer flag. Mr. Kruger is even said to have bitterly upbraided the generals for giving up Boer Independence. The gen erals returned to The Hague. EVILS OF CONCENTRATION. South Afrlcnn Blacks Unrrllllns to Return to "VVorlc. LONDON, Aug. 20. Mail advices re ceived from Johannesburg indicate the negro problem is growing more acute and is causing the authorities Infinite worry. To quote the words of one of the foremost South African authorities: "On the question of the natives de pends the whole future of the new colo nieswhether the Boers will loyally ac cept British rule or continue in a state of sullen resentment. Among the Imme diate dangers native attacks on Boers returning to their farms and attempts f the natives to assault white women ere threatening serious conflicts be tween Boers and blacks. Under the old regime the crude but simple retribution for assaults on women was shooting on sight. Now, however, there Is no legis lation on the subject and the English authorities are hesitating to enact laws until all the parties concerned can voice their opinions. The hesitancy to deal summarily with the natives Is causing both Boers and Afrikanders intense Irri tation and encourages the blacks to truculent effrontery. "Another phase of the problem is the unwillingness of the blacks to forego their lazy existence in the concentration camp.9, where thousands' were gathered during the war, and far more serious is the fact that a great number of blacks In the country have managed to secure arms. There Is, therefore, the anomalous situation of unarmed whites and armed blacks living In proximity on outlying farms. Experienced British colonials strongly favor universal disarmament of the natives and prompt legislation mak ing assaults on women a capital of fense." SKAH'TOPTED'EDWAHD. Traveled So Slowly Thnt He Kept the King Waiting;. LONDON, Aug. 20. The Shah proceeded to Portsmouth this morning for the pur pose of visiting King Edward on board the royal yacht Victoria and Albert. The Prince of "Wales and the Shah's suite ac companied him to Portsmouth. The Shah Insisted that the train should travel so slowly that the King was wait ing for an hour. As soon as the train arrived, his majesty alighted from the royal yacht and proceeded lo greet the visitor. The greeting of the rulers was most cordial. They heartily shook hands and then walked to the yacht, chatting animatedly while the warships fired royal salutes. After lunching with King Edward and Queen Alexandra, the Shah started on his return to London. The Shah wore the ribbon of the Order of the Garter and the Cross of St. Michael and St. George, which were conferred upon him by King Edward. There was a gun accident today on board the old wooden battleship Victory (the flagship of Lord Nelson at the battle of Trafalgar). While firing a royal salute on the King's arrival at Portsmouth a charge exploded prematurely and one of the ancient muzzle-loaders and a seaman were blown clear through a porthole. The body of the sailor was not recovered. It Is reported from Windsor Palace that the Emperor of Germany has accepted King Edward's invitation to visit him at Sandringham some time in November.

Comfortable Hut for a Con , valescent Boy, Ppor and Forsaken. New York Sun. Sixteen-year-old George Doscher, of Ho bcken, has been living for the past two weeks in a hut built for him by boys on Hudson street, between Twelfth and Thlr teenth streets. The boy's mother committed suicide last April, and shortly afterward his stepfather deserted him and a young aster. Young Doscher was working at the time In a wall-paper factory and supported the girl. He contracted painter's colic at the fac tor', and while he was at St. Mary's Hos pital his sister was sent to the Hudson County almshouse. When he was dis charged from the hospital Doscher refused to go to the almshouse. He told the boys In the neighborhood that If he had a place to sleep and could rest for a few weeks he would soon be strong enough to work again and have hla sister back with him. He had been sleeping nights on the docks and had v obtained a scanty supply of food by doing odd jobs about hotels and restaurants for a few weeks He had sought steady employment, but as he was sickly looking after his discharge from the hospital no one seemed to want him. Some of the boys, sons of well-to-do parents who live on Washington street, had built a rude ohanty In a vacant lot on Hudson street In which they play, and Doscher asked their permission to sleep there nights. The boys had known him when his peo ple lived on Fourteenth street, but they had not played with him. But when they saw Dcscher in such a forlorn condition they pitied him, and set to work to make him comfortable. They converted their play-lct itoanty Into a cabin for him which la as well constructed as though the work had been done by men. It Is about Ave feet high and about six feet square. They got the boards from the docks and from stores. "They made a tour of jthe neighborhood and gathered up all the old packing-boxes and loose timber they could find. The su perintendent of a near-by lumber yard gave them enough joist timber for the frame of the building, and the construction began with enthusiasm. -The boys covered the outside with oil cloth. The place is rain proof. The bed is a board with a well-worn quilt. There is a mat on the floor, two small American flags ornament the walls, and the boy has an oil stove on which to cook his food. There is no lack of that now, as the boys bring large quantities of it from their homes. Some of It Is cooked and some Is not. "Oh, last Sunday he had a great time," said Willie Una, who lives at 1209 Wash ington street. "It was his first Sunday here and he was hungry. Ail of the boys brought something. He had chicken, lamb, water melon, potatoes, pies and a whole lot of things." Tommie Sweatman, who lives at 1215 Washington street, brought a lamp to the cabin, and Archie Miller, another Washington-street boy, carried some clothing to the cabin. Since then the boys and the young girls of the neighborhood keep Doscher supplied with food. They play about the lot In the daytime and their protege joins In their games in the evenings, after he has returned from his quest for employment. Policeman Henry Cross was at first In clined to knock down the cabin when he found a light there nights, but when he learned of the situation he told the cabin's tenant that he would be on the lookout for a job for him. Some of the neighbors became, interested In the boy and promised to help him in getting employment. He says that he is anxious to work for a living and feels quite strong, although he may look pale. The boy's married sister, who lives in Jersey City, has taken charge "of his young sisters. He has a brother Henry, who Is several years older than he and who has employment. Georgo was once takon to the poorhouse, but he ran away from there. Doscher said that he is comfortably pro vided for for at least a month. "It's a cozy bunk to sleep In, and there's no end of grub," he said. "I'll camp here till I'm strong euough to work again, and then I'll hunt up a cheap boarding-house and take Nellie from the poorhouse. "The gang has been very good to me. They're all bricks." NEW YORK'S "BIT OF GERMAN Settlement In Long: Island City Cher ishes Fatherland's Ways. New York Sun. It Is now nearly a generation eince the German settlement of Long Island City was founded, and the grandchildren of the original settlers are in .some Instances in habiting, the region, yet the settlement is almost as German today in some respects as- it was 30 years ago. Here have lived and flourished much that Is best In German tradition, and the outward aspect, of the quarter bespeaks the living and active traditions of the Fatherland. Stelnway avenue is the main thorough fare of the settlement, hut It occupies al most exclusively half a dozen other con siderable streets, besides byways and out lying bits of partly Improved land. The houses, for the most part, are neat little frame structures, each with Its bit of lawn and row of trees In front, many with a green and flowery garden in the rear, fruit trees, old-fashioned flowering plants, and climbing vines. There has even been an attempt, after an old Ger man custom, to maintain cherry trees on the sidewalk. Almost every .business house, of what ever kind, bears a Germany name on the signboard, and the characteristic German trades exist pastry bakeries, tiny beer hall, music shops and purveyors of athletic goods. A turn hall flourishes in the settlement, and a shooting garden is maintained. Singing societies abound, and amid somewhat gaunt surroundings in front of the shooting garden stands upon a. tiny square of green sod a bronze bust of Franz Abt, a trophy won by the united singing societies of Long Island City at a national singing contest In Brooklyn two years ago. Like many such settlements within the greater New York the community is com plete within itself and sufficient to Itself. It has not only Its 'own peculiar pleasures music, athletics, shooting, conviviality but lis own trades and professions as well, doctors of several schools, lawyers. even an architect, whose house, a mar velous wooden structure with an aston ishing tower supported by a tenuous fly ing buttress of wood, is quite the wonder of the neighborhood. There is still so large an Infusion of new immigrants In the settlement that many signs and other public announce ments are in the- German tongue. You meet in all public places persons who habitually epeak German, and the Eng lish of a large part of the population is marked with a strong accent. This neat little city within the gaunt and grimy precincts of the late capital of Queens County has all the marks of prosperity and few signs of real pover ty. The amusement? are truly popular, because nearly everybody is well off enough to take part In them. It is a neat and comfortably dressed population that crowds the streets on gala occa sions, and almost every home shows evi dence that there is time for other than purely material considerations. It is a community of settled ways, and simple village habits, for in spite of the fact that the settlement was a part of Long Island City for years before the latter became a part of New York, and has long enjoyed whatever public con veniences are most distinctly urban, it has retained its original neighborly char acter. A newcomer soon becomes gener ally known If he come from the Father land, ,and those whose fathers and grand fathers have dwelt In the settlement are known to everybody. Spreading out from the original bounds of the settlement some of the Germans have taken to market gardening, and the kindly soil of Long Island has proved most profitable under the hands of a people who are natural gardeners. Acres of green crops now attest the skill of the settlers. You may see men. women and children at work in the fields, undis turbed by the whizzing trolley cars and the crowds of peasure-seekora bound Soundward. Amost at the doors of the settlement the Germans have their own seaside re sort. Bowery Bay, striving under Its new name of North Beach to erape from the somewhat doubtful connotation ot its earlier title. Here on hot days crowds of women and children find fresh air and salt water, bathing In the mimic surf of the senile Sound, picnicking on the sands and sharing the Joys provided for the Summer visitor. There come days anu nights when half the settlement betakes itself to the shore, and the trolley cars are laden with the returning pleasure seekers, who shout German songs until after midnight. Demand for Tariff Reduction. Kansas City Star. It Is evident that public sentiment, as manifested through the press and the platforms of state conventions. Is rapidly crystalizing Into a demand upon Con gress to make a general reduction in the tariff schedule, more particularly, on pro tected goods that arc being sold abroad for less than Is exacted at home. The action of the Democratic Congressional Committee in making tariff reduction, es peclnlly as applied to the trusts, the par amount Issue of the coming canvass is very significant. It forces upon, the Re publicans the political expediency as well as the economic necessity of giving at tcntlon to the gross -Injustice of high pro tection as generally applied.

CONTROVERSY IS STOPPED COURT PREVENTS COLORADO FUEL & IRON MEETING. Effect of the Decision Is to Retain the Present Directors and Offi cers Defeat for Gates. DENVER. Aug. 10. The stockholders' meetlnir of the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company, scheduled for today, -was called to order at 3 o'clock this afternoon in the offices of the company by President John C. Osgood. There were present In the room IS stockholders friendly to tne Osgood faction and 17 who were recognized as Gates people. In the corridor Just out side of the room were stationed some 20 Deputy Sheriffs to prevent any display of force by the Gates people. No occasion for their services arose, and the meeting was brief and passed off In orderly fash ion. Secretary Beaman read a protest from a stockholder against holding the meeting. on the ground that the proper notice had not been given the directors and stock holders, and for the further reason that the meetlnc had not been advertised ac cording to the requirements of the law. A moment later Under-Sherllt Felix O'rsell appeared in the room and began reading the Injunction Issued by Judge Mulllns, of the DIrtrlct Court, a few moments be fore, upon the application of George F. Bartlett. who holds shares In the Colo rado Fuel & Iron Company. After the reading of the Injunction was completed. President Osgood, referring briefly to the protest, and also the Injunction, declared the meeting adjourned "accordingly." Attorney Joel F. Valle, who represented the Gates side, asked to what date the ad journment was taken. "The meeting Is adjourned accordingly," responded Mr. Osgood, intimating that such action waa taken as a result of the injunction proceedings. "I move that adjournment be taken untjl next Monday morning," spoke up Mr. Vaile, "and I make this motion as a holder of a proxy." "You arc out of order," replied Chairman Osgood. "The meeting has already been adjourned." With this Chairman Osgood and those who were with him in the meeting filed out of the room. The injunction was obtained by A. M. Stevenson, attorney for George F. Bart lett. a stockholder in the corporation. The application alleged that the present controversy was doing vast harm to the shareholders, and asked that the prop erty be protected by stopping the fight until such time as a hearing could be had in court. All these things were included In Judge Mulllns" order. George F. Bartlett Is secretary of the Victor Fuel Company, and although he avers this move Is made of his own voli tion It Is said, he is nevertheless acting in the Interests of John C. Osgood, who is eaid to be without sufficient stock to elect a board, and wants the matter post poned until such time as he can acquire It. Osgood Is also more than anxious to be relieved from John W. Gates threat to keep up litigation until a compromise Is effected. The Gates people disavow any connection with Bartlett or knowledge of his move. The effect of this injunction will be to stop the fight until the injunc tion Is dissolved, either by an answer made to it or by a higher authority than the District Court Gates and all the shareholders In the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company that Gates Is presumed to represent are made de fendants In the action. One effect of the injunction unless it Is dissolved is to con tinue Osgood. Kebler and the rest of the present regime In office until their suc cessors are chosen. The general belief Is that a compromise will spring from th Bartlett injunction. The following statement was given out by President Osgood at the Denver Club tonight: "As a result of the Injunction and pro test, the annual meeting of the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company waa adjourned sub ject to the order of the court, and the A LESSON Little drops of water, Little grains of sand, . , Make the mighty ocean, Etc etc THIS suggests the lesson also that fcy taking advantage of the little drops in the prices of goods a mighty difference can fee made in yoor expense account for the year. It is. the taking advantage of the drops on prices of many articles that look better and wear longer that counts. We are now offering goods that earlier in the season you felt perhaps you could not afford. They are now easily within your reach and as fresh and desirable and wearable as ever. This is because of our imperative need of room. We must part with the stock in order to make room for the goods that will be in demand in the near future. Hence these drops in our prices. On each Friday, our drops are a little the largest on some special lines, and every one is well worth taking advantage of.

"Had the annual meeting been held, the result would probably have -been' the elec tion of two boards of directors, as the Gates party would have been defeated In the regular meeting and would In all probability have attempted to hold a meet ing of their own, recognizing the stock a'hd proxies they claim to hold, and elect ing -a board of directors satisfactory to themselves. The result of this would have been court proceedings to determine which board of directors was the legal one. This would have put the business of the com pany Into a chaotic condition, as pending a determination by the courts it3 business operations would be brought to a stand still. "It is fortunate that such a calamity has been averted. The board of directors, as was shown in the recent case before Judge RIner, has Instructed the secretary to pre pare and keep a book showing the names of all stockholders, transfers of stock, etc In accordance with the laws of Colorado, this book will be the basis for determining who the stockholders of the company are and their right to vote for directors. "It Is the purpose of the company to strictly comply with the Colorado law. It was never the purpose of the officers to willfully evade this law, but as no stock holder applied to have the transfer of stock registered, as provided In the stat ute, until Mr. Gates' attorney stirred the matter up, no book was kept. "The board of directors hope to be able to comply with the Colorado law, and at the same time the New York Exchange regulations, so that tho stock will not be Btrlcken from the list, but the provisions of the Colorado law, making it essential for protection where money Is loaned on stock to have the fact thai the stock Is pledged as security noted on the Colorado book within 60 days, will at least be the cause of great. Inconvenience, as stock-exchange houses who bought stock for their customers on margin have to use it in their loans, and this may make It neces sary to seek relief at tho next session of the Legislature." Mr. Osgood expressed the belief that the temporary Injunction Issued today against holding a meeting of stockholders would be made permanent, and that no meeting could be held until the court gave its con sent. The following statement wag handed to the representative of the Associated Press who called on Mr. Gates at the Brown Palace Hotel at 11 o'clock tonight, pursu ant to Invitation: "Messrs. Mitchell. Gates, Blair and Lam bert, who are conducting the pending fight on behalf of the owners of four-fifths of the capital stock of the Colorado Fuel & IronCompany to secure control of their property, announce that they have ten dered their resignations as directors of that company, and that the same became operative today. They are taking active measures to indicate the rights as share holders possessed by themselves and those they represent. They will also within a few days present a report to their princi pals. "The Injunction procured today was upon the application of one Bartlett, the holder of 10 shares of preferred and five shares of common stock, a confederate of the pres ent chairman, Mr. Osgood, upon the ground. In part, of the deliberate suppres sion by the existing management of the legal notice of the annual meeting. Fair minded men must appreciate and will be assured that the efforts to perpetuate con trol through such means must necessarily fall." Advice From Fra Elbertns. St. Louis Globe-Democrat. "If the concern where you are employed Is all wrong, and the Old Man a cur mudgeon, it may be well for you to go to the Old Man and confidently, quietly and kindly tell him that he is a curmudgeon. Explain to him that his policy Is absurd and preposterous. Then, show him how to reform his ways, and you might offer to take charge of the concern and cleanse It of Its secret faults. "Do this, or, if for any reason you should prefer not, then take your choice of these: Get out or get In line. You have got to do one or the other now make your choice. "If he pays you wages that supply you your bread and butter, work for him speak well of him. think well of him, & King Towels stand by him and stand by the Institution he represents. .

Patriotism can withstand hunger but not dyspepsia. The confirmed, dys peptic "is fit for treason, stratagems and spoils." The man who goes to the front for his country with a weak stomach will be a weak soldier, and a fault finder. A sound stomach makes for good citi zenship as well as for health and happi ness. Diseases of the stomach and other organs of diges tion and nutrition are promptly and permanently cured by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discovery. It builds up the byly with sound fleyrfcid. solid muscle. "After I received the advice -which you gave me in regard to my treatment," writes Geo. DornejEsq.. of 191$ Pulaski Street. Baltimore. Maland, "I used your 'Golden Medical Discovery according to directions. After using four bottles I considered myself cured, as I have not felt any symptoms rince. Had tried almost all remedies that I beard of that were good for dyspepsia, but with out relief. Finally. I became discouraged, and wrote to you for advice, with the above result." The dealer who offers a substitute for the "Discovery " is only seeking to make the little more profit realized oa the sale of less meritorious preparations. Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser is sent free on receipt of stamps to pay expense of mailing only. Send 21 one-cent stamps for the paper covered book, or 31 stamp3 for the cloth bound.
