Will Xbt Tell Why General Chase Was Recalled From Cripple Creelc DENVER, Colo., Oct 4. The summoning to Denver of Brigadier-General John Chase by Governor Peabody continues to be the feature of interest in the Cripple Creek strike. Governor Peabody declines to give his reasons for ordering tho Gen eral from duty and placing another In his command In his stead. When pressed for a statement tonight the Governor said: General Chase Is in Denver on detached duty. His stay Is. Indefinite." The Governor called General Chase in conference on two occasions todnv. hut Just what tho nature of the discussions oc curring at these meetings was has not been made public. It Is persistently rumored that Governor Peabody has become dissatisfied with cer tain policies pursued by General Chase In handling the situation in Cripple Creek, but no one in authority will verify this rumor, nor can It be learned In what par ticular the Governor's Ideas of the proper method of treating the Cripple Creek strike disagree with those of General Chase, If at all. General Cnase admitted tonight that in the conferences tonight the question of his removal from command of the troops In Cripple Creek was brought up. but that the matter has not been definitely disposed of. The immediate cause of the trouble Is ald to be due to a recent order of General Chase for a court-martial to try Colonel Gross, tho paymaster of tho Colorado Na tional Guard. The report Is that Colonel Gross ob jected to an examination being made of the payrolls by a representative of Gen eral Chase, and that during a dispute which followed Colonel Gross drew a re volver and threatened to use It General Chase, upon learning of the affair, ordered the arrest of Gross and his trial by court martial. The latter, according to tho story, came to Denver and Informed the Governor of the trouble, and Governor Peabody at once summoned General Chase to Denver. It Is said that General Chase Is strenuously op posing what he considers unfair discrim ination in pay in favor of certain officers of the Guard. Idaho Miners- in a. Riot. DENVER, Oct 4. A special to the Re publican from Cripple, Creek, Colo., says: As several of the Coeur d'Aleno men brought from Idaho to take the places of the strikers were returning from work on the Golden Cycle mine tonight they wero followed by a crowd of strikers, who threatened to "do them up" when tho mllltla left the camp. A fight followed, during which one of the Idaho men drew a revolver. The police placed the participants under arrest but they wero released on bond, the Mlneowners Association furnishing the bond for the Idaho men and Pr:idint Kennison, of tho Miners' Union, acting iri a similar capacity for tho strikers. A rep resentative of the National Guard later ueguu un investigation in regard to the alleged threats of the strikers, and It Is reported that arrests on this charge will follow. Adjutant-General Sherman Bell today refused to express himself in reference to the report that General Chase will be re called from command by Governor Pea body. General Chase's probable removal Is the all-absorbing topic of conversation In the district ATTRACTED BY PROSPERITY. Immense Immigration of Cheap Labor from Southern. Enrope. ALBANY, N. Y., Oct 4. The State Department of Labor, in its quarterly bulletin, attributes the diminution In an unprecedented degree of employment and wages reported in June as almost wholly to labor disputes. "The lockout In the building trades of Manhattan and Bronx boroughs of New York City," it says, "overshadowed all other disputes of the Summer and threw several thousand wage-earners out of work." In general the bulletin holds that exclusive of the building trades, New York industries were gen erally, as active as in the Summer of "1902, which was a banner year. According to the bulletin, Immigration this Summer has exceeded even tho record-breaking current of last year, and Indicates tho eagerness of the low-paid laborers of "Central anjl Southeastern Europe to enjoy the prosperity which, on the whole, still reigns In tho United States. The largest contingents are still the Italians, Poles and other races of Southern and Central Europe, with a low "standard of education. Notwith standing the great tide of immigration, the Superintendent of the -State Free Employment Bureau In Nevf York City states that at no time during the quar ter was he able to meet the demands for domestic help. "Prosperity Is so widely diffused," says the bulletin, "that the servant-keeping class Is larger than ever before, and has thus created a demand that ex ceeds the supply." REDCOATS GO TO CHURCH Aacleat Artillery of Boston. Escorts LondoB Visitors. BOSfTON. Oct. 4. Tho quietness of Sun day was stirred today by the sound of martial music as the Honorable Artillery Company of London and their hosts, the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company of this city, marched through some of the Back Bay streets to Trinity Church. The services In that edifice had been arranged by tho British residents of this' citya and the parade Included, besides the two mili tary bodies, those army and navy vet erans of the British service whose homes I are In this city. The line of march was well lined with spectators. The procession was under the leadership of Lieutenant-Colonel C. S. Courtney, whose staff for the day included many British officers, members of a large num ber of independent military organizations of New England and several officers of the "United States Army. At the conclu sion of the service the parade reformed and marched to, the American , Hodse, where tho several organizations were en tertained at luncheon. Some members of the visiting corps, in cluding the Earl of Denbigh, did not at tend the services at Trinity Church, but went to the Cathedral of the Holy Cross with Mayor Collins In the morning.

USES SOFT PEDAL President to Touch on Tariff Lightly, MERE HINT OF NECESSITY Thinks That "Time Is Com ing" for Revision. OTHER SUBJECTS Of MESSAGE Will Commend Efficiency of Iffavy and Urgre Increase Xeed for Re form of Currency System- Ca rnal Question Requires Care. FOISTS IX THE MESSAGES. CUBAN RECIPROCITY This will be practically the sole topic of tho mes sage to the extra, session. TARIFF Hints will bo thrown out that the tlroo bos come for revision. CURRENCY SYSTEM Reform will be recommended and discussed In detail. NAVY Efficiency will be commended and increase urged. SCANDALS Intention of Government to prosecute all offenders will be re peated. OTHER TOPICS Legislation for Alas ka and for safety appliances on rail roads will be recommended. The government of tho Philippines and the needs of "Western Indians will bo discussed. WASHINGTON, Oct 4. (Special.) President Roosevelt has begun his mes sage to the; regular session of Congress. He is working on it during spare hours at night Ho will have to prepare two mes sagesone to the extra session to be called "November 9, the other to the December session. Tho message to tho extra session will deal with little except the question of Cuban reciprocity, while that in December will cover a variety of topics. It has been pretty well agreed already between the President and his advisers, it Is learned, that his messages thjs'year will not bring forward any new issue. The most Important issue with which he must deal Is that of an Isthmian canal. The President Is going slow about this topic andf will talk with all tho party leaders before he does anythirig. Xothing: Very Positive. The chapter on the tariff will not be of the strikingly characteristic kind. The understanding Is that the President will throw out the idea that the time Is com ing when tariff schedules must be revised, but will not say when that time will ar rive. Tho deliverances on this subject will be nothing like as positive as those of a year ago, when the President rather freely discussed tho "readjustment of tariff schedules. The President will again recommend proper reform In the currency system of the country so as to meet the needs of business. He made recommendations along this line a year ago and will repeat them In more detail this year. The President will suggest legislation by Congress that will furnish the country with a currency that will admit of adjustment to all con ditions. The government of tho Philippines will come In for a goodly share of the mes sage. The President is gathering through. Governor Taf t all the facts and statistics possible for a proper presentation of the situation in the islands. Strong: on the Navy. A large Navy will again be a theme of the President's message. He will discuss what he regards as the increasing effi ciency of the Navy as Illustrated in tho maneuvers that are annually held. He will declare that there should be no halt in the building up of the Navy and will urge Congress to bo Uveral and progressive In this respect The Postofflce and other Government scandals will be discussed In the message and the President will point out Just what was done and the Intention' of the Admin istration to prosecute all offenders to tho bitter end. The need of wise legislation for Alaska will be discussed. The President Is learn ing all he can about that country with the view of presenting a recommendation that Congress give Alaska go'od laws as quickly as possible. The needs of the Indians In tho West and the necessity of additional legislation for safety appliances on railroads will b among the other things discussed. SULTAN'S DEBTORS ANGRY Because He Gives Xiberally to St Louis Exposition Exhibit. LONDON, Oct 5. The Tangier corre spondent of the Times says the Sultan. of Morocco has given a second Install ment of 530,000 to the American syndicate which is undertaking the Moorish exhibit at the St Louis Exposition. The corre spondent adds: "This action on the part of the Sultan creates much criticism here, as the Moor ish government pleading fc existing crisis, has refused to consider or pay the claims of the Europeans who have suf fered loss of property through the re bellion. "I learn that the powers have agreed to leave the solution of the existing crisis to France, who will give the neces sary assistance to the Sultan's govern ment when their resources shall be fin ished. There Is no question of a French protectorate, but France will naturally acquire a preponderating Influence ia Moorish politics."
