HURT HISX REPUTATION
CHABtBERLAIX'S IJTTERAXCES NOT
APPROVED IK ENGtAXD.
Once More He Is the Host Thorongn-
ly Hated British Statesman
Indifferent to the Storm.
LONDON, Nov. 23. One more has Jo
feeph Chamberlain, the Colonial Secre
tary, proved his right and title, to be
the most thoroughly hated British states
man. The storm now raging in Germany
over his animadversion On" the Prussian
Army has had a powerful reflex In Great
Britain, where, regardless of party lines,
Mr. Chamberlain has been severely criti
cised for uselessly "putting his foot in if
On all sides can bo heard circulated ex
pressions of opinion by English business
men and politicians, -who, while they per
haps believe Mr Chamberlain 'was correct
In what he said, denounce the uttering of
such sentiments. It Is recalled that Jdr.
Chambcrlain'6 utterances regarding" the
Czar and the Anglo-German alliance have
been the causes of the only serious out
breaks of anti-British feeling on the Con
tinent In recent times. It was no exagger
ation tp say that the financial world of
England would be delighted to see Mr.
Chamberlain muztled when intending to
speak on England's foreign relations. As
might be expected, Mr. Chamberlain him
self takes the whole affair wtlh his usual
cynical Indifference. He Is staying quiet
ly at Birmingham, and Is not exhibiting
any particular interest In this storm which
he has raised.
At the Colonial Office a representative
of the Associated Press Was informed that
Mr. Chamberlain does not desire to enter
Into Controversy and stands by what he
said. If the German papers continue to
misrepresent him (this Is Mr. Chamber
lain's point of View), it cannot be helped.
As at the other governmental depart
ments, the Tjellef exists, as at the Colo
nial Office, that thb whole ngitalioh will
die a natural death, and that everything
will come out all right There Is no
doubt, however, that by this latest break
Mr. Chamberlain has seriously, perhaps
irreparably, damaged his reputation with
the better classes in Engalnd. ..
GREAT GERMAN' SUGAR TRUST.
The "Kartell" Responsible for the
Bearing: Down of Prices.
LONDON, Nov. 23. The British sugar
magnates assert that their investigations
have revealed the existence in Germany
of a great trust called, tho "Kartell,"
which has been in existence about a year,
and that It Is chlelly owing to its agen
cy that sugar -has been forced down in
England, and other countries to the low
est point In the history of the industry
that Germany today Is enabled to dictate
to the world the price of that commodity.
The exact extent of the "Kartell" was
discovered, they say, only quite recently.
The magnitude of Its operations supplies
the mteslng factors in the present alarm
ing condition of the BUgar market '
The abolition of this organization will
be one of the chief objects of the Nations
other than Germany attending the forth
coming Brussels conference. Already
British firms have entered Into negotia
tions With leading American sugar inter
ests and tables are now being drawn up
showing the transactions of the "Kartell"
with a view Of submitting them to the
authorities at Washington. The British
Government will be urged to empower Us
representatives at the Brussels Confer
ence to threaten retaliatory and counler
visillng measures "until the "Kartell" is
broken up or at least modified.
The latest figures available In London
show that Germany now produces one
third of the world's supply of beet sugar,
of which Bhe exports no Ibsb than 1.230.W0
tons after completely supplying her own
population. These exports, which are al
most one-fifth of the world's available
supply, aro sent out at a loss to German
manufacturers, but thanks to the "Kar
tell," plus the bounty, they aro able not
only to make up for this, but to reap a
handsome profit in addition to gaining ab
solute control of the sugar market.
The "Kartell" Is run very secretly, but
Trom confidential reports shown to a rep
resentative of the Associated Press In
London. It Is learned that It consists of an
Iron-clad combination of almost all pro
ducers and rrfiners- td keep up the" price
of sugar In Germany. This is done bo
successfully that German consumers to
day pay as much for sugar as the Briton
does for the eame article imported from
Germany.
British sugar authorities are quoted as
saying that the German "Kartell" and
bounty combined will within two years
ruin the beet and cane Industry in other
countries, especially in Cuba and the oth
er West Indies.
HELD FOR TRIAL.
Hearing of tlic Case of Theodore and
Lanra Jnclcson.
LONDON, Nov. 3. Public Interest in
the hearing of the charges against Theo
dore Jackson and Laura Jackson at the
Marjlebone Police Court has been sur
feited, and there Were only a few people
in court when the hearing was resumed
today. The child, Daisy Adams, was re

The prosecution held photographs With
the record of Ann Odella Diss de Bar
written on their backs, obtained from the
Chicago police. One appeared to have
been taken in Jollet penitentiary. The
female prisoner at that stage of the pro
ceedings interrupted the prosecuting coun
sel, saying that she was never there,
whereupon counsel for the prosecution
said that If her identity was disputed they
would call an officer from Chicago. A
photograph of Jackson, taken at New
Orleans, was also shown. Both of tne
prisoners, testifying In their own behalf,
denied the charges made against them.
Jackson said he had been the adopted son
Of "Swaml," as the female prisoner had
been frequently referred to. for 20 years.
Though the case was adjourned for a
week, the magistrate announced that he
would commit the female prisoner for
trial on the "Charge of swindling and that
he would commit Theodore on the charge
of unnatural practices. Both prisoners
will be committed on the charge of com
mitting criminal assaults on a girl

RIOTING IN GALWAY.
Disorder Followed the Election of
Colonel Lynch to Parliament.
DUBLIN. Nov. 23,-Serious "rioting fol
lowed the illuminations last night in Gal
way In honor of the election of Colonel
Arthur Lynch to Parliament The Na
tionalists paraded the town, wrecking the
windows and doors of the houses of
Unionists and Nationalists suspected of
voting for the defeated Candidate, Horace
Plunkett The police had difficulty in
clearing the streets. Vigorous baton
charges were met by showers of pavlng
stones, whtoh resulted in numbers being
injured.
The Nationalists disclaim any intention
of exposing Colonel Lynch to arrest and
trial for treason by Insisting Upon his at
tendance at Westminster. They have
elected the Boer warrior as a defiant
method of making themselves as disagree
able as possible.
Lyncii Ik In Paris.
PARIS, Nov. 23. The election of Colonel
Arthur Lynch to represent Galway In the
British House of Commons is attracting
considerable attention here, where tne
Colonel resides. The newspapers publish
his portrait as a Boer Colonel. Colonel
Lynch informed the correspondent of the
Associated Press today that he does not
expect to be molested when he goes to
England at the opening of Parliament.
He think bis election is significant asj
showing that, the Irish party Is united,
and he has reason to believe that Ireland
Is on tbe eye o having a satisfactory
.home rule sheasure. Regarding South 'Af
rica, Colonel Lynch said he had received
information which convinced him ttyat tho
war Would 6hd within threo months by a
settlement securing to the Boers auton
omy oa the Australian model.
Redmond Saya He I Not a Traitor.
CHICAGO, Nov. 23. John E. Hedmond,
who, with two brother members of Parlia
ment, Thomas O'Donnell and Patrick Mc
Hugh, arrived here today to take part In
the Irish demonstrations tomorrow on the
anniversary of the execution of the Man
chester martyrs, expressing hia opinion
that Colonel Arthur Lynch -would take
his seat in Parliament despite his service
under tho Boers, said:
"I think there is no doubt Colottel Lynch
will take the seat to Which he was elect
ed. It Is altogether probable that bis
election was the direct result of his serv
ice under the Boers. He Is a man of abil
ity and can in no sense be considered a
traitor. What flghllng he did was honor
able warfare.''
DEBATE IN GREEK CHAMBER.
Resolution Adopted Approving; the
Government's Attitude.
ATHENS, Nov. 23. The Greek Premier,
M. Theoktis, taking part today in an
exciting debate in the Chamber of Depu
ties over the recent disturbances here
arising from the objection of the stu
dents to tho translation of the gospels into
modern Greek quoted from certain letters
of the Holy Synod addressed to Queen
Olga, In 1899, in which the synod's rea
sons against the translation of the gos
pels were explained. Tho Premier blamed
tea metropolitan of Athens, Porctplus
Oeconlmldis, for tho disturbances. He
said the metropolitan, owing to the weak
ness of his character, had hot the courage
to support the synod Upon the occasion of
his audience with the Queen. Referring
to Queen Olga, the Premier said her
piety. Christian sentiments and nobility
of character wore the admiration of tho
whole world. During the war she Was
told by wounded soldiers that they could
not read the gospels because they did not
understand tho text The Queen then or
ranged for the publication of a transla
tion of tho gcspels into modern Greek,
exclusively for military use.
The recont disorders have been caused,
M. Theoktis explained, by the demonstrat
ors assailing tho troojJa with stones and
revolvers. The troops only fired In the
air. That was proved by the wounds of
the- victims being from revolvers, and
not from rifle bullets. Speaking or tae
dead, tears ran down the Premier's
cheeks, and the sitting of the Chamber
was suspended for some minutes in order
to allow him to regain his 'composure.
The opposition was led by M. Delyannls,
who accused the Ministry of weakness
and of being responsible for murder.
Vast and noisy crowds surrounded the
Chamber of Deputies while the debate was
going on. .The troops, lvwever, were dis
posed In force, and overawed the assem
blage. The Chamber finally adopted a
resolution approving the government s
action by a vole of 107 to 87.
CORONATION PREPARATIONS.
specimens ot Robes to Be Worn
Shown to CostnmcrK.
LONDON, Nov. 23. Active preparations
are on foot for the coronation of King
Edward. The Duke of Norfolk, heredi
tary, grand marshal and premier Duke
and Uarl, this morning summoned well
known London costume-makera to Norfolk
hobse, where, spread out on wicker
frames, were.spcclirtens of the robes to be
worh by the peers and peeresses ,at the
next year's great function. This inspec

Duke, Was to enable the costumers to get

position of theznlnerver and ermine, and
other details for the all-Important mak
ing of .the rob?Er on whlqhwork will now
be stafted. hi earnest The British Mu
seum has been besieged by those who are
searchlhg ths records for notes of tho
dresses and regulations of previous coro
nations. Queen Alexandra hag ordered from Delhi
a quantity of the finest embroidery, for
which the former capital of India Is so
famous, tvhlch will adorn Her Majesty's
robes at th4 coronation ceremonies. This
action, which has. .produced the greatest
satisfaction In India, Is due to the good
offices of Uyj Vicereine, who, whan In
England nventlj . showed the Queen some
priceless Delhi embroidery, and so stimu.
lated royal interest as to cause the pres
ent order to be given.
Rtoftnin and England in Persia.
NEW YORK, NOV. 23. Referring to the
recent articles In the British press favor
ing an Anglo-Russian understanding, the
St Petersburg corresponaent or the Lon
don Times and the New York Times quotes
an article opposing tho suggestion in the
Novoe Vrcmya. This paper belittles Great
Britain, saying she has fallen greatly
from her former high estate, as is shown
by her concessions to the "United States
and Germany. The x correspondent
draws the "moral that Great Britain
ought not to sacrifice her In
terests in Persia because of indignant
Germany, but rely on herself alone. Then,
he says, Russia would be ready to co
operate In finding ways of fulfilling the
missions of both countries with the leasf
possible friction.
Morocco's Crnelty.
LONDON, Nov. 23. A dispatch to the
London Times and New York Times from
the City of-Morocco, says the 3000 troops

mountain tribes for abducting a Spanish
boy a"hd girl, left the capital In a state
of absolute destitution. Many of them aro
in rags, and no uniform1? were provided
before their departure. The cold, rainy
season Is beginning. The condition of the
soldiers after the mountain marching and
fording in the courso of their journey of
400 milfes, will be pitiful. Food will scarce
ly be obtainable.

sugar oonference, the date for which has
ben definitely set as December 16, will

sented Is doubtful, as she has opposed
ttve suppression of sugar bounties. France,

diplomatic channels that she will consent
to a suppression of the bounties.

expenses of the Ramazan and aairam,
Que In December and January and Involv
ing 360,000, can tys met The Ottoman
Bank utterly refuse to make any -more
advances and tho penury Is so acute
that even tho troops In many provinces
are unpaid. The consequence is that
there have been mutinies id. several dis

THE NEW GERMAN TARIFF BILL.
Objects Set Forth In ihtf Preamble
Issued by the Government.
BERLIN, N6v. 23. The government's
preamblo to the heW tariff bill, issued to
the members of the Relohstag today, sets
forth .tho necessity of replacing thb exist
ing tariff by an entirely new one thdt
shall not be inferior to that of ahy other
country in delicacy of arrangement Pro
tective tariffs. It is added, have contribut
ed materially to the prosperity of German
Industry and commerce. In connection
with this prosperity, a dislocation in the
distribution of the wago-carning class has
taken place, to the dotrlment of agricul
ture. The Increase In tho wages of ag
ricultural laborers, caused by the Increase
of the wages of tho industrial classes, has
resulted In an almost Intolerable increase
In the working expenses of the agricul
turists. On the other hand, thcec has
recently been a "setback In the upward
movement of German Industry. Whether
this setback had reached Its lowest ebb,
or how long It will last, cannot be calcu
lated to a certainty. In order to avert
tho disastrous consequences which that
dislocation will eventually have, not on
agriculturists alone, but on the whole
community, tho adoption of effective
counter-measures can no longer be de
layed. One of the bill's essential alms is to
place home agriculture in a more favor
able position by affording it such greater
customs protection as will alleviate the
disadvantages. Although iffs not ex
pected that grain Imports can be entirely
dispensed with, it is highly desirable to
have tho permanent home production suf
ficient for the greater part of the nation's
requirements. In any case, the depend
ency of home prices on internal prices
will continue. The possibility of feeding
the people is being rendered more and
more difficult, and this "necessity certainly
imposes the obligation to exercise the
greatest caution. Nevertheless, should it
be found that this burden is laid on the
consuming public the burden must bo
borne, in order that dangers far more seri
ous to the state shall be avoided.
Respecting commercial treaties with
other countries' the government IsTCady,
after the tariff bill Is disposed of, to enter
In due course into negotiations to these
ends with those countries desiring to do so.
The recasting of the tariff bill will not
prevent the country from effecting new
commercial treaties. Notwithstanding
the uncertainty of politics and the com
mercial future the tariff bill provides for
more severe compensation measures.
It Is, desired that the new tariff become
'effective January 1, 1904. As, however,
there Js littlo probability of new com
mercial treaties becoming operative at the
same time, desirable as this may be, the
bill leserves that the fixing of the date
upon which the new tariff shall become
effective shall be by imperial decree, with
the assent of tho Federal Council.
LITERARY LONDON STIRRED.
Severe Criticism of the Late Robert
Lonis Stevenson.
LONDON, Nov. S3. Literary London is
stirred to its depths by a remarkable
criticism of the late Robert Louis Ste
venson, contriouted by William E. Hen
ley to a Christmas number of a periodical.
"Blaclng Indiscretion," "111-JudgeU
screed," and "lampoon" are samples of
the terms applied to the article by indig
nant and surprised admirers of the author
of "Treasure Island." Even those at
tempts to defend the justice of the criti
cism find that it lays Mr. Henley open to
charges. Of disloyalty and bad taste. The
Dally News Is emphatic In Its protest. It
says: "One thing Is made quite clear by
tho article. Stevenson has a genuine hold
upon the affections of his countrymen
and that affection will l&st long after Mr".
Henley's ill-judged screed Is forgotten."
A writer on The Star affects to regard
the article as a literary -jfoaSc. He Says:
"Henley was Stevenson's friend of friend).
Therefore h could not have written this
lampoon. Doubtless Henley deems the
Imposture unworthy of the honor of ex
1 poshre."
Good Wcelc At London Theaters.
LONDON, Nov. 23. Another week of
good business has been recorded In the
theatrical world. About the only excep
tion was Ibsen's "Little Christiana,"
which will bo withdrawn next week from
the Savoy, aftir searcelyv a fortnight's
run, making room for a revival of "Io
lanthe," which has "not been seen in
London for 19 years. Rosina Brandram,
who appeared in Its first production, will
be a member of the cast Beerbohm
Tree has' started rehearsals of Stephen
Phillips' "Ulysses," which he regards as
tho most ambitious production ever at
tempted. The principal parts will be
taken by Mrs. Jambs Brown Potter and
Lily Hamburg. Among those who took
part lnthis week's concerts were Rosa
Olltzka and Angela Anderson, tbe Amer
ican pianist, who drew a fair audience
at St James's Hall. The youdg American
lacked confidence at first, but later
showed to much better advantage.
A hew royal musical title has been cre
ated by tho appointment, announced to
day, of Lady Halle to b6 violinist to the
Queen.
Durham Denounced Bannermnn.
LONDON, Nov. 23. Lord Durham, In
presenting medals to the volunteers at
Durham today, said that though he had
ceased to support the ministers he con-,
sldered Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman
a fool If he believed the British Soldiers
in South Africa guilty of the barbarism
and loathsome behavior alleged against
them. If he made the charges for par
tisan purposes to discredit tho ministry,
he was a knave. Lord Durham further
declared he would not make Sir Henry
Premier If he could do so by tho spend
ing of a sixpence or lifting a finger.
Boer Emissaries in Germany.
NEW YORK, Nov. 23. The Vienna cor
respondent of the London Times and New
York Times says a pro-Boer Journal pub
lishes a telegram stating tnat all over
Germany salaried Boer emissaries arc se
crely working. The correspondent
remarks that no anti-British out
break In Austria followed Mr.
Chamberlain's reference to Bosnia In his
Edinburgh speech. He notes in connec
tion with this that Dr. Leyds has not boen
in Vienna and soys the Austrian authori
ties have made it known that Anglo
phobe demonstrations Will be disapproved.

BIO STRIKE THREATENED
SUDDEN DEMAND PRESENTED
PITTSBURG SWITCHMEN.
BY
Wnnt nn Advance in Wages and
Other Chnntecx in Their Work
One Strike Is Off.
PITTSBURG, Nov. 23. About one-third
of the switchmen employed in the various
freight yards here have presented a sud
den and unexpected demand for on ad
vance in wages and other changes In their
work. The notice was Berved upon the
officials of. the several railroad companies
in the city this morning at 10 o'clock and
a request made for an answer before 10
o'clock Monday morning. The wording of
the demand 13 such as to lead tho officials
of the road to believe that a strike will
follow- the refusal of the demand.
Presented so unexpectedly and with so
little time to consider the matter, and
the utter Impossibility to submit the de
mand to the proper officials In New York,
Baltimore and Philadelphia, It Is said that
It will be an utter Impossibility for the
local officials to make any definite answer
to the men. Should the men strike. It
I would be far-reaching In Its results and
cripple the roads in the most congested
sections, coming as it would at a time
when It has been by superhuman effort
that the roads have been kept open at all.
The present difficulty Is largely duo to
a disagreement betweeh the Federation of
Railway Employes. reWesentlng all
branches of the railway service, and what
has been termed a radical clement that
ortce was connected with the Brotherhood
or Railway Trainmen. Should the strike
be declared, it would affect the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, Pittsburg & Lake Erie,
Baltimore & Ohio, Buffalo, Rochester &
Pittsburg, Bessemer & Lake Erie and Al
leghany Valley. So far as known, the
switchmen in the yards of the Fort Wayne
and Panhandle roads are not hilled with
the new union.
STILL IN CAMP.
Striking Miners in Kentucky Defy
the Judge's Order.
MADISONVILLE, Ky., Nov. 23 The
striking union miners continue defiant
and remain under arms tonight in their
camp near tho Providence coal mines.
They hold that the order of Judge Hall
Is Illegal and treat It with contempt
They maintain that the actions of Adjutant-General
Murray In making the nec
essary preparations to enforce Judge
Hall's order we-e Unauthorized, The
strikers are in camp tonight in greater
numbers than before, notwithstand
ing that the time limit of Judge Hall's
order that the camp should be disbanded
and moved out o" tho county expired more
than 12 hours ago. This refusal to heed
the order of the court is based upon
the advice of W. H. Yost, of Greenville,
chief counsel for President Wood, otthe
United Mlneworkers. Yost and Wood are
defiant In their talk, and declare that the
court's order was a rarce, Illegal In the
extreme, and Issued without authority.
When tho Associated Press correspond
ent visited the camp today the strikers
Were eating breakfast More than 200
Ten were assembled in the camp, with
probably more than 100 in the vicinity.
There were four large canvas tents, the
lodging capacity of which Is about 200.
There is much speculation about the re
ception the mllltla will receive when they
march on the camp to make effective
Judge Hall's order.
There 13 no change in Judge Hall's de
termination to have his order executed.
This afternoon, after conferring With
General Murray, on his return from the
camp, Judge Hall made the following
t'tatement; ' There has been no change
In my determination to disperse the camp,
and the orders have been given General
Murray so that he may" get his forces in
readiness to met the emergency In such
a manner as his discretion may suggest
I would suppose that the Increased num
ber in the camp, with their continued
hostile demonstrations, would . require
great precaution In General Murray's
preparations, all of which Is left entirely
to him, and will necessarily cause zome
delay."
General Murray began at once making
plans for carrying out the order. and

There Is a rumor, not confirmed by Gen

sent to the camp at 6 o'clock tomorrow
morning, and that, in the event the camp
ers do hot disperse, their tents will be
destroyed and the inmates forced to dls-

BABY MINE DISASTER.
All Hope of Rdicniner the Eight Offi
cials I Abandoned.
POGAHONTAS, Va., Nov. 23. All hope
of finding the eight mining officials who
entered the West mine yesterday to
search for bodies entombed by the recent
explosion in the Baby mine has been
abandoned. A rescuing party entered
the mine this morning, but was able to
proceed only 300 yards. The coat of
Superintendent O'Malley was found
hanging on a peg about 200 yards In the
mine, but no other trace of the party
was discovered. Hopes had been en
tertained up to this morning that the
party had escaped through tht- Tug River
outlet three mlle3 distant and messen
gers were dispatched at an early hour
to that point They failed to find any
trace of tho party.
Assistant Superintendent King, who led
the rescuing party and who was over
come by blackdamp, has entirely recov
ered. He says it is impossible for a
human being to live 15 minutes in a
mine in the condition in which the mine
was when, his party entered yesterday.
It has been raining hard since early
morning and the main entrahce to the
mine presents a gloomy appearance, with
the friends and relatives Of the missing
men standing around.
At 9 o'clock tonight nothing has been
heard from the missing officials. No
effort has been made to enter the mine
since early morning, It being impossible
to do so on account of the accumulation
of gas. Large forces are working day
and night to free the mines from gas,
but it is impossible now to form any
definite Idea, as to when the mines will
be considered safe for searching parties
to ehter. The fire has now been burn
ing 10 days. Including the eight miss
ing men, the probable total death list
during the period numbers 17 persons.

"I know tha"t Peruna saved my lite.
and I oannot, speak too highly In its
praise. Three years ago I caught a heavy
cold, which settled in catarrh of the head
and bronchial tubes. I thought it only
an ordinary cold at first, and paid little
attention to it until the catarrh devel
oped1. I coughed badly and was unable
to secure a good night's rest. Finally my
father read of a cure called Pcruna, and
sent for a bottle. I found that it relieved
ma wonderfully, and so kept taking it
for nearly three months, when I was well

of friends in this neighborhood. It has a
good reputation as a catarrh remedy
,whlch it well deserves." Myrtice james.
