Jingo Party in Sweden Anxious
to Fight Norway.
NORWAY'S .PRIDE TOUCHED
Refuses to Raze Historic Fort
Kongsvlnger and liay Capital
Open to InvadersSwedish
Army and Navy Ready.
CHICAGO, Sept 9. (Special.) The
Christlanla correspondent, of the Dally
News says:
War between Norway and Sweden has
never been nearer since the beginning of
the disunion movement than it is now.
The situation Is highly critical. The sus
pension of the negotiations at Karlsbad
denotes & deadlock on the question of
frontier fortresses. Sweden demands not
only that the fortifications actually on
the frontier be destroyed, but that the
historic stronghold of Fort Kongsvlnger,
18 miles from the frontier, the key to the
defonses of Christlanla on the east, be
sacrificed.
During the negotiations Sweden has
been incessantly mobilizing troops. Sev
enty thousand Swedish soldiors arc being
massed at strategic points along all the
railroads leading to the frontier. The
whole Swedish Jleot is assembled at Bo
nus, noar Christlanla Fjord. The Swedish
jingo press urges that war be declared
against Norway, in spite of the Riks
dag's conditions of separation. Similar
pressure Is being brought to bear upon
the government by the military leaders
of the war party.
The Norway Cabinet has not broken
off the conference with Sweden, and is de
bating the possibility of making conces
sions in the lntorcst of peace. The Nor
wegian people, however, would consider
the razing of old Fort Kongsvlnger an
intolerable humiliation.
Fort Kongsvlnger was erected in 1CS3
and played an Important part in the later
wars between Sweden and Norway. It is
C2 miles from Christlanla, on the railway
connecting the Norwegian capital with
Stockholm. After the union of Sweden
and Norway It was dismantled and re
mained so until a few years ago.

Japanese in Corea' Discontented.
SEOUL, Corea. Sept 9. The unofficial
Japanese press here sympathizes " with
the rioting at Toklo and the burning of
official buildings. There is also criticism
of the Elder Statesmen. The Japanese
population here is dissatisfied with the
peace conditions and condemns tho gov
ernment for yielding.
Two Newspapers Suspended.
TOKIO, Friday, Sept. . (1 P. M.)-(De-layed
In transmission.) The government
has ordered the suspension of the Nip
pon, a Conservative paper, and the Jln
min, a Radical paper, on account of ob
jectionable articles published dealing with
the local situation.
CONFERENCE OX PEACE TERMS
Premier Explains to Leaders of Diet
and Hears Criticisms.
TOKIO, Sept. S. (5:30 P. M.) (Delayed
In Transmission.) At an Informal
meeting which took place today be
tween the Premier, Count Katsura, and
members of both houses representing
their respective parties and associa
tions, Count Katsura made a full state
ment concerning the peace negotia
tions. It now transpires that the re
port that " Cape Soya, on La Perouse
Straits, could not be fortified Is un
founded, the only stipulation made
with Russia being in regard to the
free passage of the straits.
Baron Yumamoto, Minister of the
Navy, who was present at the meeting,
said that, although there was a strong
popular dissatisfaction with the terms
of peace. It must be borne in mind
that a far heavier sacrifice of life
would be necessary to take Vladivos
tok than that Involved in the capture
of Port Arthur, besides the heavy
monetary outlay. It was advisable,
therefore, he said, to be satisfied with
the present terms. In conclusion. Ba
ron Yamamoto said that Russia was
sure to build a strong navy, and that
Japan mus't "be prepared to make ade
quate provision for such a contin
gency. M. OishI, leader of the Progressive
party, suggested that the Cabinet
should resign after concluding peace
on such unsatisfactory terms.
When the fact that no stipulation
exists against the fortification of
Cape. Soya, 'and that Japan is to have
a free hand in the government of Co
rea becomes known it is expected that
bopular indignation will be consider
ably allayed.
RENEWED ATTACK ON HOUSE
Mob Again Tries to Burn Out Home

. TOKIO, Sept 7. (9 A. M.) (Delayed In
Transmission.) Another attack was
made upon the residence of Homo Min
ister Yoshikawa early this morning.
The members of the mob closed in on
the building, into which they threw
firebrands and succeeded In starting a
small Maze, -which the military guards
extinguished, and beat off the attack
ing party. It Is reported that ex
plosives wero thrown at the building
'during the attack, but this is not con
firmed. The guards captured 20 of the at
tacking party and imprisoned them
within -the compound. Later on the
;rowd sent emissaries to .the guards,
who begged for the release of the cap
tives. Their petition was' refused, and
the guards are still holding the prison
ers. '
YAMAGATA DEFENDS TREATY
Japanese General Argues Continued
War Meant Yl'asle.
TOKIO. Sept 9. (G A. M.) The Nichi
Nlchl publishes an extended statement
from Field Marshal Yamagata, reviewing
the war. He first discusses the Russian
advance into Manchuria and gives de
tails of the futile negotiations. Ho then
refers to tho increase of the Russian na
val force and Japan's resolution to draw
the sword for her own protection and con
quer or die.
"After tho victory of Mukden." he says,
"started the cry for peace in Europo and
America. After the naval victory in" the
Sea of Japan, President .Roosevelt asked
both belligerents to cease their offensive
operations. Difference of opinion and dis
sension over the terms of peace were un
avoidable, but the people must remem
ber that Russia's obduracy and desire to
continue the war left no hope of obtain
ing adequate payment to the- Japanese
wlttout further sacrifice of life and ex
penditure of money. The cessation of
hostilities was also advantageous to the
national development of Japan. A con.
tlnuation of war meant the wasting of
the country's energies and resources."
Yamagata concludes by asserting that
Japan's military strength is unimpaired
and the armies could have taken Har
bin. The Nlchl Nlchl declares that the Home
Minister and the Chief of the Metropoli
tan Police were responsible for the riot
ing, and demands their resignations: It
says that their unwarrantable arrogance
in trying to suppress the expression of
national sentiment has resulted in great
humiliation.

HAVOC IN- ALL DIRECTIONS
Grass Strewn With Fragments of
Bodies Wreckage on All Sides.
UNIONTOWN, Pa., Sept 9. (SpeclaL)
In an explosion horror at the plant of
the Rand Powder Company at Falrchancc,
six miles south of Uniontown, at 9 o'clock
this morning the lives of 18 of the 36 men
employed there are believed to have been
snuffed out. Two others 'not employed
there were killed as the result of the ex
plosion. Others were so fearfully man
gled that they will die. The powder
plant is a complete wreck, as are the
homes in the neighborhood of the disas
ter. Acres of ground surrounding the
plant presented a ghastly sight with tho
grass stained here and there by blood,
shreds of flesh and parts of human bodies.
Tenants in the larger buildings rushed
from their offices. Buildings trembled
from top to bottom. Physicians and un
dertakers from Uniontown and vicinity
were summoned and rushed In automo
biles and other vehicles, the explosion
having torn up the railroad and trolley
lines so that traffic had to be suspended.
Telegraph and telephone wires were torn
down and fully an hour elapsed before
communication could be bad with Fair
chance. The injured wero cared for as rapidly
as possible. They were given temporary
attention and then hurried to Uniontown
hospitals or. their, homes. Many of the
bodies were mangled beyond identifica
tion. The Baltimore & Ohio and street
railway tracks wore badly torn up. One
piece of rail two feet long was hurled
three-quarters of a mile.
Many of those who started to give help
in recovering the injured and picking out
the mutilated remains of the dead 'became
sickened bj the hideous spectacle and
had to stop. As fast as the pieces of
torn and blackened human forms wero
gathered together, attempts at identifica
tion were made. Fourteen ot the dead
have been partially identified.
Prompt measures were taken to relieve
the distress of those homes which are
directly affected by the horror. The citi
zens of Uniontown hold a meeting and
appointed a finance and relief committee,
which was instructed to visit the scene
of the wreck and furnish food.

ITS ABOUT OVER
Baku Situation Shows Change
for the Better.
SEVERAL BANKS REOPEN
Number of Bead Over 1000, Half
Being Those Killed in City
During Early Fighting.
Troops Tircji Out.
ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 10. 3:S A.
M.) The situation at Baku yesterday
showed a flight but perceptible change
for the bettor. Dispatches received here
Indicated that the rioters had made no
boadway in their attempts at incendiar
ism in tho "black town" quarter, whero
comparative order was restored and only
occasional shots were being fired. Sev
eral banks had reopened.
Oil men, escorted by the troops, were
ablo for the first time to visit tho oil
fields, which for four days had been prac
tically In the hands of the Tartars. They
report scenes of Indescribable destruc
tion. About three-quarters of the prop
erty there, they say, was burned to the
ground, and plundering and incendiarism
continued. Hundreds of tanks were de
stroyed, the pumping machinery is use
less, and the houses of the workmen de
stroyed. It is impossible to fix accurately the
losses sustained, but rebuilding opera
tions will take half a year if the work
men return Immediately. One of tho oil
men estimated the number of doad at
over 1OT0, half of whom wore killed In the
city during the early rioting, but he ad
mitted that the estimate was only a
guess.
Although tho loss in tho oil fields had
been reported as total, the St Petersburg
report of the Baku Bourse committee de
clares to tho Associated Press that after
an inspection of all of the telegrams re
ceived by the oil mon here, not a single
refinery In "black town" had been burned,
and that Important department of the oil
Industry was not touched.
Tho troops are reported as being tired
owing to their continued exertions, but
fresh reinforcements are rollevlng them.
A member of the staff of the hospital
at Balakhan, where all the patients were
reported to have been massacred, tele
graphs that the staff of doctors and the
patients are all safe. ,
STILL SHOOTIXG AROUXD BAKU
Fires and Murders Continue and
Tnrtars Resist Troops.
ST. PETERSBURG. Sept. 9. The Nobel
Company's offices here received a dls-
patch today from Baku, saying that there
was a xurious fusillade of cannon firing
Friday night, and that houses wero still
burning. In "Blacktown," and at the
works, comparative quiet reigns. An
other Baku dispatch says fires and mur
der do not cease, despite the formal ar
mistice. About 1500 Tartars, it is announced,
have been killed or wounded. The oilmen
met today and resolved not to reopen
their works until the right .to keep "'pri
vate guards for the protection of their
property is granted by the government.
Further disorders are expected today
and additional reinforcements are urgent
ly needed. The troops now at Baku are
powerless to control the wild, fanatic
Tartars, who resist the troops energeti
cally. Attempts made to reconcile. the
Armenians and Tartars have been unsuc
cessful. Private advices from Baku say that the
machinery of 300 out 3G60 oil wells has al
ready been destroyed. Despite the tem
porary lull a renewal of the warfare and
Incendiarism is apprehended momentarily.
The tens of thousands of hungry unem
ployed persons, whose ranks are con
stantly Increasing, constitute an addition,
al danger.
The Baku catastrophe leaves no alter
native to Southern Russia than tho use
of coal Instead of oil in a large part of
the factories and railroads. The furnish
ing of sufficient coal, however, Is diffi
cult on account of the scarcity of rolling
ptock on the railroads, cars having been
withdrawn from the regular service
throughout European Russia to cany sup
piles and men to Manchuria. A tempor
ary reduction or the removal ot the duty
on coal Is proposed.

TIFLIS, Caucasus, Sept 10. Reports
from Baku say the conditions there have
grown worse. Artillery and rifle fire con
tinues. The troops are tired as a result
of the work of the last few days, and are
in Insufficient numbers and unable to prc
vont pillage and arson, which are occur
ring everywhere. Tho Governor of Baku
has issued orders to shoot down merci
lessly all Incendiaries, whether Tartars or
others. The working people are starving.
No bread or water are obtainable.

LITERAL CHANGE OF HEART
Hope 'to Replace Worn-Out Organs
With Those From Monkeys.
CHICAGO. Sept 9. Experiments upon
tho vital organs havo been conducted at
tho University of Chicago by Drs. Carroll
and Guthrie, which it Is thought may
lead to knowledge permitting the grafting
of the heart of one animal upon another.
The doctors havo successfully moved the
hearts of dogs into their necks where
they havo continued to perform their
functions perfectly. They have also been
ablt ta reverse tho circulation of blood
la the animals experimented upon with
out killing the animal.
Dr. Carroll will begin new experiments
early in October, lie declared that many
startling things have been learned about
the heart through recent experiments.
"We have hope," he said today, "from
what we have learned, that some day we
may be able to replace a wounded or
worn-out heart in a human being with
the healthy and youthful and strong one
from a living monkey."
Among other experiments performed In
his laboratory. Dr. Carroll has switched
the circulation of dogs from some of the
arteries, thus leaving them dry for a
time. This opens vast possibilities for
new methods of surgery in extreme cases.
NO DANGER TO COMMERCE
Germany Has Firm Grip on Cholera
and AVII1 Kill It.
BERLIN, Sept 9. (Special.) There is
bellcvtd to be no danger at present that
commerce between Germany and the
United States will be seriously Impeded
by the cholera. Difficulties would arise
if Hamburg. Bremen and other German
ports declared the cholera serious. As
yet however, only Imported cases, have
been discovered there, and these have
been instantly Isolated.
Tho Government's methods of dealing
with the disease are the most energetic
ever known, and are winning the admira
tion of tho whole medical world. They
promise an early victory over the cholera
bacilli. Besides, Germany's sanitary
equipment has been greatly improved
since the last preceding outbreak. The
emigrant traffic, because it Is drawn from
the Infected district will be the first to
be hit It may bo partially stopped If the
experts at Washington deem special pre
cautions necessary.
Dr. Studt Minister of Medical Affairs,
today returned from his holiday to pre
side at a private meeting of the advisory
council to tho health officers, consisting
of distinguished physicians selected from
all parts of Germany. The object was
to consider the cholera situation. The
meeting was called several days ago when
the prospect was much more serious than
today. The council heard what the health
authorities were doing and confirmed the
wisdom of the measures. The most hope,
ful feature of the situation, a semi-official
summary of the proceedings says,
is that tho public can be entrusted with
carrying out the precautionary regula
tions. Through this disposition on the
part of the people are both the danger
of an epidemic and exaggerated fears
overcome. The danger of an epidemic Is
not to be referred to because the pos
sibility of such a misfortune does not
exist The most confident feeling prevails
that the disease is now firmly In the grasp
of the sanitary authorities and that they
are co-operating with the private health
service.
NO EPIDEMIC OF CHOLERA
Dr. McLaughlin Soys Preventive
3Icnsurcs Have Choked It.
HAMBURG, Sept 9. Dr. McLaugh

agencies hero "have the cholera by the
throat" to use his expression, and
that there Is scarcely one chance In a
thousand of an epidemic Three days
have ndw passed without a case, and if
Monday passes without one. It may be
assumed that cholera here has coased
to be sporadic.

Hallock Is Accused of Playing
With' Marked Cards.
LOSES HIS POSITION ALSO
Transportation Club Vnlnly Tries to
Keep Secret Scandal by Which
Hallock Won Many Thou
sand Dollars at Poker.
SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 9. (Special.)
Probably the worst scandal that ha3
Involved any of the prominent social
clubs In San Francisco In many a long
day has Just developed. The ' Trans
portation Club, with elegant quarters
In the Palaco Hotel, Is the institution
In question. It has Just expelled in
disgrace George W. Hallock, one of Its
most prominent members and chair
man of Its committee on purchasing
supplies. Hallock has also been dis
charged from his 5200-a-month posi
tion as city passenger agent of the
Pacific Coast Steamship Company,
with offices under the Palace Hotel, on
New Montgomery street
Hallock has lost his steamship and
club positions because he was detected
as a cheat In poker games in the club
and In the homes of xrfembers of the
club, to which ho wns Invited a3 a
guest along with his wife. It is said
that because of marked cards In poker
games, he was enabled to win during
the past eight months J7000 In the
Transportation Club and an additional
34000 in the homes of Its members.
Hallock In a social way took tho
club by storm. He narrowly escaped
being elected president at tho last
election, when Carlton C Crane was
given that honor. Hallock was asked
to take some position under Crane.
Ho was seemingly reluctant to do so, but
finally said ho would take charge of tho
committee on supplies. Ho was at once
made chairman of that commlttcee and
entered fully into the spirit of the
club. Ho bought everything the club
wanted, including cards. And It must
be said In this connection that the
Transportation Club, is neither better
nor worse than the Pacific Union. Bo
hemian. Union League and other clubs
when It comes to the expense item of
cards.
But that Is not here or there, save
to say that for the purposes of Mr.
Hallock's undoing. In his own deliber
ate way, ho bought a liberal supply of
decks of cards and Is charged with
taking- them home and marking- them
before giving them to the club. He Is
also charged with holding out a re
serve fund of the cards and using them
when Invited to dinner by various
members of the club.
The Transportation Club wants to
keep secret the expulsion of Mr. Hal
lock because most of its members are
subordinates of Harrlman, Ripley, Bis
sau, Sproule, Hill, Luce. Foster and
the leading lights In railroad circles
and do not want these superiors to
know that they play for high stakes
at poker. But they do play some in
teresting poker games and Hallock is
charged with taking- advantage of that
fact and using marked cards. Whether
it is actually true -or not, the club has
expelled' him on that- ground.
AGUINALDO STILL A REBEL
Constabulary Officer Says He Directs

MANILA. Sept. 9. Captain W. P.
Baker, medical officer of the Constabu

peaoeful natives are aiding tho move

Agulnaldo was challenged to prove
otherwise. The testimony has created
a sensation.

Wood says that In his opinion there is no
subject on which more nonsense has been
written than that regarding tbe bad ef
fect of the Philippine climate, and he says
that sickness In the field Is a factor which
canNbe almost "disregarded when simple
precautions are observed."

BAB? SHOW CAPTURES MUSIC - LOVERS EVERYWHERE
Novel Undertaking That Has Attracted Most Widespread Atten
tion and Patronage to Be Continued This Week
at Eilers Piano House.
With over sixty-five thousand dollars'
worth of fine pianos already sold, we are
still able, tomorrow morning, to present
the largest nnd most comprehensive col
lection of baby grands, and specially de
signed exhibition upright pianos to be
found In the United States, and every In
strument Is marked at moat substantial
reductions representing, in many in
stances, a saving more than enough to
educate the entire family In music
Th3 illustrates the magnificent prepa
rations made by Eilers PJano House for
this really noteworthy event. It tells
the tremendous scope of this piano exhibi
tion and baby show, and explains why the
Eilers store can secure such costly Instru
ments which never go Into the displays
In any other section of the country under
price.
People everywhere, who know, no long
er contest the supremacy In the piano
business of the Eilers Piano Houses. That
was established years ago.
Those who do not know, owe it to their
sense of thrift to learn just exactly what
this exhibition sale may mean to them
during the next few days. It may be well
to enumerate a few of the special fea
tures of our business now:
First There is a marvelous assortment
of the most costly and most valuable pi
anos made in America.
Second There is an average reduction
of nearly one-third to be profited by
sometimes there is only a fourth fre
quently almost an entire half of the reg
ular retail values of these Chiekerlngs,
"Webers. Klmballs. Hazeltons, Hobart M.
Cables, Schumanns, Losters, etc., etc., Is
to be saved.
Third You don't havo to bother about
having the piano delivered now. Select
the Instrument now, have It set aside,
free of charge, and delivered when It Is
wanted, even If not until next Christmas
the holidays are really not very far off.
Fourth In spite of the enormous price
reductions, and In spite of the extraordi
bankrupt has never divulged to any ap
preciable extent any of the transactions
whereby sho got Into her possession the
hundreds of thousads of dollars which
her creditors gave her."
