" RIOT BY STUDENTS Berkeley B,oys Take Posses sion of Train, SPIRIT OF DEVILTRY PREVAILS five Hnndred Collegian Tarn on Brakes on Car, Put Oat Lights, and Ralne Havoc Generally One Ardent More to Follow. BERKELEY, Cal., Sept. 24. The students of the University of California Indulged In riotous diversion tonight, and as a re sult one of the number, Winfleld Reed, of Santa Barbara, Cal., Is in jail with a charge of felony confronting him, and others are likely to be Incarcerated for equally serious and minor offenses. The trouble grew out of the big rally to the football team on the campus. Early in the night boys made a raid on a quan tity of railroad ties and transferred the fuel to the campus to be used for a bon fire. After the rally a spirit of deviltry seemed to take possession of the students.. About 500 of them took possession of the 10 o'clock local train, put out the lights, turned on the handbrakes and de molished the Interior furnishings. Win field Reed was detected in the act of pulling the air brake, and Deputy Con stable Lwveland arrested him. The students rushed to his rescue, and a des perate tight ensued, but Loveland, after being reinforced, succeeded In placing his prisoner in the flrehBuse. which will be used as a Jail. The boys tried to storm the place and rescue their comrade, but were repulsed. Reed was later taken to the Oakland jail. He is a freshman, and admits he pulled the air brake, but de clares he did not realize the seriousness of his offense, -which the law makes a felony. President "Wheeler, of the university, when seen tonight, said he saw no reason why the law should not take Its course in Reed's case, as the offense was seri ous. Other arrests will doubtless be made. 3IURDEU OP OFFICERS AVEXGED. Xejjro and White Man Handed for Killing MlBsIssIppi Marshals. OXFORD, Miss.. Sept. 24.

DEADLOCK ON THE TARIFF Germany and Reichstag: Majority Un able to Agree. BERLIN, Sept. 24. The government and the Reichstag majority have reached a deadlock on the tariff. The Imperial becretary of State Count von Posa dowskl-Wehner, enunciated to 'the Reichs tag tariff committee today more sharply than ever before the government's de termination notto accept the bill as amended at the first reading, and the committee Immediately re-voted the meat and animal duties to the same rates as at the first reading, to which Count von Posadowskl-Wehner had particularly ob jected. Herr Herold, the Centrist leader, af firmed that without these duties the Cen trists would not support the "bill, and one by one representatives of the Agra rians, the two Conservative factions and portions of the National Liberals sus tained Herr Herold's position. Count Posadowskl-Wehner made a con. fidentlal statement to the committee re specting the government's reasons for rejecting the minimum scale of duties on animals and meats. These reasons are understood to be in connection with the negotiations of the new commercial treaties. Upon a member Inquiring how much the Count's remarks were confi dential, the Secretary replied that the government wanted to know openly that all the Federalists were opposed to the animal schedule as amended. He also dwelt on the Importance of continuing the commercial treaty policy. Count von Kanitz, one of the- Agrarian lead ers here, Interjected that the tariff bill "is the main thing In making treaties, but secondary so far as the agricultural classes are concerned, for they have no Interest whatever in treaties like those now existing." The Conservative papers adopt a pessi mistic tone regarding the bill's pros pects. The Kreuz Zeitung says the out- Took could not b'e more gloomy. The town council of Frankfort-on-the-Main has adopted a resolution asking the Reichstag to revoke the prohibition against the importation of American canned meats and sausages.

Counsel for the prosecu tion said that most probably others were implicated in the case, which promised to develop largely. Their Information disclosed that not only had forgeries been committed, but embezzlement and theft of correspondence from Pittsburg to the Carnegie Company. Counsel handed in forged checks for $90,000 and $50,000, respectively. He said the forgeries were all of great magnitude. The prisoner, he declared, kept up a lav ish establishment at Kingston-on-Thames, and steps were being taken to prevent the removal of his furniture. Counsel also handed the magistrate a letter from a prisoner in Exeter which the magistrate said threw a new light on the case. Coun sel added that an examination of the books showed not only that Greig's forger ies were very large, but that there had been an extensive falsification of the books. The prisoner had apparently been carrying on large businesses. At arIous addresses In the city the police have seized a mass of documents and corre spondence. They also discovered that chloride of lime had been used in erasing names from checks. Colonel Hunslcker told a representative of the Associated Press subsequently that some of the money had been recovered, but that the loss would probably amount to $75,000. WILL OF QUEEX o BELGIUM.

Will Do the Same for Every Woman. Paine's Celery Compound Cures a Lady Who Was Told That Her Life Depended Upon a Surgical Operation. The greatest misfortune of the present generation is that wives and mothers' are so frequently unfitted for the duties of life and domestic enjoyment, by reason of broken down health and overtaxed sys tems. The duties of women of all ages are really more worrying and wearing than the troubles met with by men. Social, household, and often business cares press upon women very heavily. In this way the delicate nerves and sensitive organs become deranged, suffering ensues, and life becomes a burden that many carry to the grave. For the special weaknesses to which women so often fall victims, medical sci ence has provided Paine's Celery Com pound. This famed medicine has specific powers for correcting the disorders of the female organism: It maintains health, gives strength, vivacity, and good looks, and imparts to the body the elasticity of girlhood. No other medicine can so quick ly banish and permanently cure painful and obdurate feminine ills. Mrs. L. S. Long, of Flint, Mich., says: "For twenty-five years I have been, a great" sufferer from Insomnia, never ob taining -more than four nights' sleep In a week. For sixteen years life has been a burden to me because of prolapsus uteri, whose tortures no words can describe, and from which no physician gave me any hopes of relief, except by an operation. I have also for years' been troubled with rheumatism to such an extent in my right shoulder as to nearly disable me. "Last February I was induced to try Paine's Celery Compound, In hopes that relief from Insomnia and rheumatism might be obtained. After using three bot tles of the Compound, the rheumatism was better, I could sjeep like a child, and, strangest of all, my uterine trouble was cured." the accident is of a very serious char acter, but he gives no estimate of the cost of repairing the dock. From the ad vices" at hand, it Is the opinion of the of ficers of the department that the accident was due to bad management In docking the pontoons.

J. Dora, wuo was In charge at the .time the accident "occurred. Mr. Dorn's report shows .that A. B. Stlckney and Miss Jane Addams Disagree as to Their Purpose. MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 24. The feature of today's session of the National Conven tion of the Association of Employers and Employes was a lively tilt between A. B. Stlckney, president of the Chicago Great Western Railroad, and Miss Jane Addams, of Chicago. Mr. Stlckney read a paper on "Rewards of Industry," in which he asserted among other things that the chief object of labor unions was to secure high wages. Miss Addams took issue with this, and sold their principal object was to get shorter hours. Mr." Stlckney said too many men had been attracted to the anthracite fields by the high wages," and that caused the present trouble. Miss Addams declared the operators were re sponsible for overstocking the market. They had Imported labor and were respon sible for present conditions. The debate was lively and evoked much Interest. Miss Addams1 subject was "The Social Waste of Child Labor," but she made her reply to Mr. Stlckney before beginning her pa per. On account of the cancelling of the Pres ident's engagement. It was decided to close the convention tomorrow. At the afternoon session T. V. Powderly, ex-Commissioner of Immigration, in speaking of the anthracite coal strike, said few people think of the laboring man until he strikes, and they are in danger of being affected by the result of strikes. "It Is only when we begin to fear we may not have the pleasure of roasting our shins in front of an anthracite coal fire next Winter that we realize that we have a laboi problem to deal with." .The evening session was given up to the discussion of "Some Phases of the Labor Question,'.' by Colonel James Kllbourne, of Columbus, O. On the question of so cialism. Mr. Kllbourne said: "The great discrepancy between the re wards of manual, as compared with those of other labor, the fabulous fortunes mado by speculation and the forming of gigantic trusts', controlling the necessaries of life, are breeding in this country the spirit of socialism. I do not however, believe that a quick overturning of our present social system. Imperfect as It Is. would be bene ficial to any of our citizens, least of alt the working people." In speaking of the anthracite coal strike iMr. Kllbourne said: "There may be established peace, but between labor and monopoly there can never be anything but war. The strike in thi anthracite coal mines may be stopped for a time by the exhaustion of either party to it, but the strife will never be definitely settled while a few Individ uals claiming divine authority assert the right to control a necessity of life, the gift of the Creator to all his children, and to do with It as they see fit" FOR NEW INSURANCE LAW.

A dispatch from The Hague today confirms the report that the donor of the 5100,000 sent to General Botha for the relief of destitute Boers was Henry Phipps, an American, and not "Arthur White," as announced by the General In Rotterdam Monday. The money, however, was sent through Ar nold White. In notifying General Botha of the gift, Mr. Phipps wrote from Beaufort Castle, Scotland, September 3, that he and his family had followed the course of the war with anxious hearts for the sake of both sides, that a Just ending might be made. "Now that the war is over," con tinued Mr. Phipps, "it is a privilege, and I believe a duty, to do something to re lieve the suffering caused by the war. I feel that the best service I could render 'would-be to provide $100,000 for the relief of the Boer widows' and young orphans' fund, to be disbursed by you and two others. My desire is that the temporary mlsery of the women and children should be. relieved, and at the same time I trust nothing will be done which could be Justly described as. unfriendly to Great Britain." Botha in Reply. General Botha, In his reply, dated from Brussels, September 21, acknowledging the" "most generous and unexpected gift," adds:. "I have not the slightest hesitation in giving you assurance that the money will be used solely and entirely phllanthrop Ically, and that it will be In no way ap plied to do anything which could be justly described as unfriendly to Great Britain. Having laid down our arms, and carried out loyally, as- our late enemies admit, the ternw io which we subscribed at Pre toria, we 'made peace in the fullest sense of the word, and my only object now Is to try to alleviate, aa much as In my power lies, the misery in which my coun trymen find, themselves after a war that has entlrsly ruined .them and made thou sands of widows and orphans who have no- means of livelihood, so that my people may be restored to happiness and con tentment In the countries which are theirs and my only home. "I em the more thankful and moro grateful, to you for your generous gift as It Immediately contributes so largely to make thousands of unhappy people happier, and will gladden so many hearts. Your generosity will always" be most thankfully remembered by me and all those who are to benefit thereby. In be half of them, as well as General Delarey and myself, I tender you our deepest thanks, and may the Lord reward you." For Third Trnstee. General Botha suggested that, besides himself and General Delarey, whom Mr. Phipps appoints to disburse the funds, the third trustee should be chosen from among J. Rose-Innlae, ' Attorney-General of the Transvaal; Sir Richard Solomon, legal adviser of the Transvaal administra tion, and Major Sir Hamilton Gould- Adams, Lleutenant-Genexal of the Orange River Colony. Attached to thocorrespondence Is a let ter from Colonial Secretary Chamberlain to Arnold White, saying that, as he un derstands Mr. Phipps . gift Is purely philanthropic, he will be willing to render any assistance In his power to secure its proper administration, even though the fund Is confined' to assisting the Boers. Mr. Chamberlain points out that the fund only would appeal more strongly to Eng llsh sympathy If itsobject was to assist an tne widows ana orpnans who nave suf fered through the war. without distinc tion of race or politics. It is also said that Mr. Lehman, pub lisher of the memoirs of ex-President Kruger, has given Mr. Kruger $150,000 to be devoted entirely to the Boer funds.

Turned Dovrn by Britain, They Ask Financial Aid of Other Nations'. AMSTERDAM, Sept. 24. The Boer Gen erals, Botha, Dewet and Delarey, have issued a manifesto In the shape of an appeal to tne civilized world, unis docu ment recalls how, after the terrible struggle In South Africa, and the Boers were compelled to accept the British terms of peace, the Generals were com missioned to proceed to England, appeal to the new government to allay the dis tress which Is devastating the colonies, and In the failure of the mission to ap peal to the civilized world for charitable contributions. Continuing, the Generals says that, hav ing failed to induce Great Britain to grant further assistance, it only remains for them to address themselves to the people of Europe and America. After setting forth how sweet It had been, during the critical days they had passed through, to receive constant marks of sympathy, the Generals take this oppor tunity to express, on-behalf of the people of the late republic, fervent thanks to all those who have assisted charitably the women and children in the concen tration camps, prisoners, etc. "The small Boer nation," goes on the manifesto, "can never forget the help It received In Its dark hours of suffering. Our people are completely ruined. It has been Impossible to make a complete Inventory, but we are convinced at the least 30,000 houses on Boer farms, and many villages, were burned or destroyed by the British during the war. Every thing was. destroyed and the country was completely laid waste. The war de manded many victims, the land was bathed In tears, and our orphans and widows were abandoned. We are appeal ing to the world for contributions to as sist the destitute and educate the chil dren."

When the In ternational Arbitration Court, which Is bearing arguments In the Plus fund claims between the United States and Mexico, reassembled today. Attorney De Lacrolx resumed the presentation of Mex ico's case. He criticised the decision of the previous arbitrators that the only object of the founding of the fund was the propagation of the Catholic religion, and said the founders gave the money to the Jesuit missions In California because they knew the Jesuits wWe working to secure the subjection of the natives In the name of the King of Spain. When the Jesuits were expelled, the King of Spain appropriated the fund in accord ance with the desire of the founders, and in accordance with his right. The church never possessed a proprietary right to the funds of the religious community. CounMl asserted that the church admit ted havjng no right to this money by Its acceptance of the appropriation decree Issued by the King of Spain, and adue? that decrees of the Mexican Government affirmed that the money belonged to the state. The treaty concluded at Guada loupe in 184S exonerated Mexico from lia bility to America, and the California bishoprics established under the United States laws after 1S45 had no right or claim upon Mexico. Mexican law pro hibits religious associations from acquir ing property, and under this prescription the claim had lost all rights. The hear ing was. adjourned until September, 26. The police department of Athens, Greece, has forwarded a circular to the man agers of all local theaters directing them to announce their plays are such as la dies can properly attend.
