Will Give Child Labor Baptism.
CHICAGO, July 28. Eighteen-months-old
Harry G. Creel, Jr.. is to act the
leading role in a "Labor Baptism," the
first of the kind ever held as far as
known. The baptism is expected to have
the same effect as the sprinkling of water
at a church baptism, to, dedicate the
child to' the cause of organized labor for
the remainder of his life. This "Labor
Baptism" is to be an auspicious occasion,
not only for the parents of the child, but
for all members of the Chicago Federa
tion of Labor. The meeting of the Fed
eration Sunday has been selected as the
place, and John Mitchell, president of the
United Mineworkers of America, will take
charge of the rite, if he can be secured.
H. G. Creel, the father, is the originator
of the baptism or dedication plan. He Is
a member of the International Book
binders' Union, and he has made union
tactics a life study. His one child is to
be his ideal of union education.

GREAT SENSATION SPRUNG
WAS
NEGOTIATED
Dead Executive Is Denounced as
Traitor for Trying to Bar
ter Away National
Territory.
GUAYAQUIL. Ecuador, July 28. The
government newspapers have caused a
sensation here by the publication of doc
uments found among ex-President Gar-
eta's private papers. A document found
treats of the sale of the Galapagos
Islands to the United States. It appears
that the islands were first offered to
France. Senor Garcia's memorandum
says:
While In Washington I visited Presi
dent Roosevelt and Inquired into the ques
tion whether the United States was dis
posed to take over the Galapagos Islands,
paying Ecuador $5000 In gold for them,
thus recognizing Ecuador's sovereignty
over the islands. Mr. Roosevelt replied
that he would recommend the proposal to
Congress, and was sure it would he ac
cepted, offering to appoint the American
Minister to continue the negotiations in
Quito.
"A few days later Joseph W. Lee, the
American Minister to Ecuador, arrived in
Ecuador."
It appears that the Alvaro revolution,
which resulted in the overthrow of Senor
Garcia, ended the negotiations. The offi
cial papers call Garcia and his Ministers
traitors for trying to sell part of the na
tional territory.
The negotiations with France are said
to have been interrupted owing to the
belief that the United States would not
consent to a European power acquiring
the islands. A meeting was called at
Quito, the capital, last night to protest
against this action taken by Senor Gar
cia and his Ministers.
The Galapagos Islands are a group in
the Pacilic belonging to Ecuador, on and
near the Equator, 730 miles west of the
coast of Ecuador. They consist of 13
Islands, the largest, Albemarle Island, be
ing 60 miles in length.
On Charles Island a small colony of
Ecuadorians was established, forming a
penal settlement, and this island contains
most of the population, which hardly
exceeds 400.
SECRETARY ROOT IX BRAZIL
Head of State Department Discusses
Pan-American Affairs.
RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil, July 28.
(Special.) The feature of the visit of
Secretary of State Root to the Brazilian
capital was his reception this afternoon
by the Brazilian officials, the diplomatic
corps, the delegates to the Pan-American
Congress and members of the Brazilian
Congress.
Theer was a crush of members of the
American colony, Brazilian, diplomats
and) leaders of Brazilian society. Mr.
Root, in replying to the speech of wel
come by a delegation from Parliament,
said:
"You speak of me as the interpreter of
a policy. My visit here is for the inter
pretation of the policy of my country.
That is why I am here."
After the speeches the party retired
to the pavilion in the palace grounds,
where the reception became most infor
mal. There was no session . of the Pan
American Congress today.
Incidentally It was announced that Mr.
Root is to be tendered a reception by the
Brazilian Congress, an unprecedented
honor for the Congress to pay a foreign
statesman.
Tonight Mr. Root was the guest of
honor at a dinner tendered by Baron Rio
De Brans. Minister of Foreign Affairs.
There was a brilliant company present
and toasts were responded to by many of
the high officials in attendance.
Earlier in the. day Mr. Root conferred
with the American delegates to the con
ference, the principal matter under dis
cussion being the so-called Drago doc
trine, which opposes the collection from
the South and the Central American gov
ernments of private debts by force. Chili
opposes part of this proposal and it is
likely to cause trouble in the conference.
The conference between Mr. Root and
the Brazilian Foreign Minister yesterday
Is still the subject of much comment, but
so far no statement regarding it has been
vouchsafed.
Because Uruguay has intimated that
she would not like to have Secretary
Root visit her borders on an Argentine
warship the Invitation extended by Ar
gentina to have the American use one of
that nation's war vessels has been de
clined with thanks 'and Mr. Root will
continue his Journey from here on the
United States cruiser Charleston.
RUSSIAN CITIES ARE QUIET
Jews at Kieff Have Made Elaborate
Plans to Repulse Advances.
ST. PETERSBURG, July 29. (Spe
cial.) Although certain of the officials
had feared trouble in some of the larger
cities Saturday, Moscow especially, all
niylces received Indicate that the day
fased off very quietly and that there
were no outbreaks of a serious charac
ter, except at Warsaw, where the rev
olutionists have banded together for
organized robbery.
Religious processions in connection
with the feast of St. Vladimir were held
in every city and town throughout Rus
sia, but the authorities had taken elab
orate precautions to guard against any
trouble and consequently none oc
curred. In Kieff a massacre of Jews had been
predicted but none occurred. In fact
that city was even more quiet than
was St. Petersburg, and it is said that
not an arrest had to be made. The Jews
had taken elaborate precautions to
ward off attacks. They were prepared
to guard their homes, but they had
nothing to do.
Up to the present time the govern
ment seems to have complete command
of the situation and the disappointment
over the dissolution of the Douma is
gradually disappearing. In fact matters
were never sc good, at least on the
surface, as at present and the outlook
promises well for a long peace.
The revolutionists, apparently, have
decided that their organization Is not
strong enough to undertake a general
uprising and as isolated outbreaks are
easily put down, it has been decided to
permit affairs to continue as they are
until a successful revolution can be as
sured. Italian Left Exhorts Douma.

MITCHELL BOOM 15 SPRUNG
HEAD OP MINEWOKKERS NAMED
FOR VICE-PRESIDENT.
Desire of Unions to Go Into Politics
Likely to Make Him Bryan's
Running Mate.
CHICAGO, July 28. (Special.) The spe
cial correspondent of the Evening Post
at Indianapolis writes that paper as fol
lows concerning the recent mention of
John Mitchell as a possible Vice-Presidential
candidate on the Democratic Na
tional ticket:
"Although Mr. Mitchell, as president of
the United Mineworkers of America, has
usually been too busy to deny any rumors
that had to do with his possible part in
politics, his Western friends are surprised
that he has made no effort to kill off
the boom for the Vice-Presidential nom
ination which was started in the anthra
cite coal districts some time ago.
"The cry of 'Bryan and Mitchell which
has been heard in many sections, may be
heard in others. Now that the American
Federation of Labor and the United
Mineworkers of America have decided to
go into politics to bring about reforms
that both organizations believe are due
to organized labor, they will look over
their own ranks first to pick out the
available timber for public office. If or
ganized labor is determined to capture the
chair of the presiding officer of the Sen
ate, thereby placing a mat on the thresh
old of the White House, why should not
this man be John Mitchell? Indeed he
seems to be the logical candidate of labor.
"No labor leader is more favorably
known to the country generally than
Mitchell, and his champions declare he
would he as strong with the people out
side the union ranks as among those
within. Although this seems to be a
strange statement, Mitchell's history Jus
tifies it. He has consistently fought the
socialistic movement and in the three Na
tional conventions of miners it was his
influence that prevented the organization
from wavering and partly committing It
self to socialism. The socialists regard
Mitchell as their arch enemy, and have
sent their delegates to the convention
time and again to counteract his influ
ence. But this has always failed.
"Mitchell is also known as a conserva
tive. He has been in the limelight many
years, but this has not turned his head,
lie has kept on making friends, and of
course a few enemies, and some of the
latter are in his own organization. Should
Mitchell become a Vice-Presidential possi
bility, he would he the target for the
National Association of Manufacturers
and all its allied bodies. He stands well
with the farmers of the West.
"Miners of Indiana, Illinois and Ohio
have not yet put men forward for Con
gressional nominations. Mitchell could
have had the Democratic nomination for
Congress in the Joliet district of Illinois,
in which is Spring Valley, his home, but
when it was offered he was so deeply
submerged in the fight with the anthracite
and .bituminous operators that he had no
time to consider It except to decline the
office.

The club is not financially able Itself Just
at present to send these men back, but

Aside from the great prestige such an
entry would give Portland is the fact
that this crew which yesterday won so
handily from the best crew in West Can
ada has in practice beaten the world's
record time of 8:15 2-5, made over a mile
and a half course by the Winnipeg Boat
Club, in 1S96. Dan Murphy trained this
Winnipeg crew, and it was under his
hand that they set a new world's mark.
He has also trained this Portland crew
and before he left for the north said he
had a better crew than that which made
the record. So much for Portland's
chances against the best from Eastern
boat clubs.
President R. W. Wilbur, of the Port
land Rowing Club, is at Nelson with the
crew. The directors telegraphed him last
night of their decision to send the oars
men East, and asked advice from Coach
Murphy whether they should return to
Portland before leaving for the Worces
ter regatta, or go direct from Nelson. A
reply is expected today.
Should the crew decide to return home
before leaving for the East, they will
probably arrive Wednesday morning.

OP ENOCH ARDEN.
Wife Believed Him Dead, but He
Returns to Complete Inter- -rupted
Honeymoon.
ATLANTA, Ga., July 28. (Special.)
After an absence of 42 years, three of
which were spent in the service of the
Confederate army and tne subsequent 39
in a Northern penitentiary, where he was
serving a life sentence for murder, An
derson Pittman, 65 years of age, has re
turned to Georgia to find his wife the
widow of another man. It is the pathetic
story of a second Enoch Arden.
She waited and waited for him from
whom she parted as a young bride, and
when he did not return after she heard
that he was killed in the battle of Chick
amauga, she mourned him as dead. With
the report of his death the letters that
had been coming to her regularly ceased,
and this confirmed hec fears.
After her period , of mourning she was
won by a sturdy mountaineer, one White
Collin. They were happv together for a
long-time until he was slain by the -moonshiners
of his district because they be
lieved he had Informed on them to the
revenue officers.
She then moved to Cartersville. Pitt
man states that as he was returning
home after the close of the war he met a
Northern officer with whom he got into a
quarrel and whom he killed. He was tried,
convicted and sentenced to serve a life
term in the Federal prison, and was par
doned only last week.
The couple are now living in Cartersville-
on their Interrupted honeymoon,
bridged by a lapse of twoscore years.
WILD BULLET KILLS HIM
Careless French Target Practice
Costs American Officer's liife. '
CHEFOO, July 28. Lieutenant Clar
ence England, navigation officer of the
United States cruiser Chattanooga, was
wounded at about noon today by a rifle
bullet fired by a member of the crew
of the French armored, cruiser Dubltil
Thouars, and died at 6 o'clock this even
ing. The Chattanooga, with Lieutenant Eng
land, on the bridge, was proceeding from
the harbor to the target range. Just out
side, and was passing the French squad
ron,, which was anchored near the Amer
ican squadron, and was engaged in small
arms' practice. The Chattanooga, after
several bullets had struck the side of
the ship, signalled to the Frenchmen to
cease firing, but before this was accom
plished Lieutenant England was struck
in the back at the base of the spine,
probably by a ricochet bullet, which left
his body under the arm.
The crew of the DuDetit Thouars later
continued its practice from the deck of
the cruiser: Their fire was directed at
targets in the water, differing from the
American practice of landing men on a
barren island at the entrance of the har
bor. The French squadron here consists
of nine ships, and the American of seven.

"I have retired from the firm with great
personal regret, for the sole reason that

United States, and others are threatened.

WARSAW, July 28. Two daring train
robberies were committed in Russian Po
land today, one of them resulting in a
considerable loss of life. A train from
the frontier station of Herby, bound for
Czentociiowa, was carrying money re
ceived from the Custom-House to the
branch Imperial bank under protection of
seven frontier guardsmen. General Zukat,
chief of the frontier guards; General Wel
tering and Captain Laguma were passen
gers. Fifteen persons boarded the train at a
way station.- They evidently had been
waiting for It, and made an attack on
the guardsmen, who were reinforced by
the officers named. A regular skirmish
followed, in which the two Generals, two
officials, five soldiers and one robber were
killed and Colonel Brezezikl and one rob
ber wounded. The wounded and dead
were taken to Czenstochowa.
The robbers escaped, taking J8000 and the
arms of those who had attempted to de
fend the train against robbers.
'The second robbery was committed to
night on the Warsaw-Vienna Railway, six
miles from' Warsaw. While the train was
under way unknown persons pulled the
danger signal, causing it to stop. Rob
bers who were aboard jumped out and
seized the locomotive and detached the
mallear from the train and ran it down
the line. They secured $37,600 of govern
ment money.
The robbers were fully Informed, evident
ly, that the train had the money on board.
They carried red flags and are supposed
to be members of the Polish Socialist
party. The train was without a guard,
and hence there was no fighting and no
casualties. Efforts to capture the robbers
failed.
The robber who was wounded at Czen
stochowa is in a serious condition. He re
fused to give any information whatever
concerning his accomplices.
Public disorder is growing daily throughout-Russian
Poland? Today a panic oc
curred in a public park here. Many shots
were fired and one person was killed and
four wounded. It is believed to have been
an attempt by revolutionary agents to
cause a panic.
GENERAL STRIKE IS FEARED
Knssian Lower Classes Preparing

ST. PETERSBURG, July 28. It is'
evident that the proletariat organiza
tions' refusal to accept the challenge
at this time upon grounds of the Gov
ernment's choosing does .not mean that
it is not their intention to give bat
tle later. Indeed, the proletariat or
ganizations, backed by all the political,
parties, including the Group of Toil,
Social Revolutionists, ' Socialists " and
the Peasant League, have thrown
themselves into the campaign of agi
tation for a simultaneous general
strike, to be followed by a rising in
the cities and the country.
Although the time Is not propitious
for the peasantry, as the country is
in the midst of the harvest season,
the leaders believe a month or six
weeks at most will suffice for this,
and confidently expect that their cam
paign will be aided by the universal
repressions to which the Government
will be compelled to resort In Its policy
of open warfare against revolution. '
The Constitutional Democrats are
holding aloof, fearing co throw in
their lot with their former allies, yet
they are ready, if the masses rise and
the Government fails, to seize the use
of the victory. 1

Douma Members Predict Bomb
throwing and Revolt. .
BERLIN, July 28. The Russian Cor
respondence News, a syndicate working
in opposition to the Russian Govern
ment, has distributed to the Berlin
press an account of a conversation one
of its promoters had with Messrs. Rod
itcheff, Ostrogorski, Swetschim and
Professor Kovalevsky, members of the
outlawed Russian Parliament, who at
tended the conference of the Inter
Parliamentary Union in London and
who on their way back to Russia
stopped here to change trains. The
Russians took a hopeful view of the
situation. M. Roditcheff said that it
was only the beginning, the Spring in
the development of Russian liberty.
"But," said the Interviewer, "Is not
the quiet with -which the dissolution
of Parliament was received by the
Russian people a bad indication?"
Not at all," replied M. Roditcheff.
"The answer will be given by the
fighting parties. They will return to
the argument) of bombs and the peas
ants will refuse to pay taxes and will
resort to uprisings. Only a few weeks,
perhaps a couple of months, will elapse
before an organized opposition will
break out. Premier Stolypln himself,
if he has any real intention of govern
ing without the use of force alone,
will find that he must reckon with the
demands of the people as a Parlia
ment." ,'

Prof. Barry Bulkley, a graduate of Amherst College, and for a long
period professor of Elocution and Oratory at Emerson Institute, is a lec
turer of National reputation, having filled various prominent positions.
He writes from Washington, D. C. :
'Peruna la Indispensable for all orators and public speakers, a sure care
for colds and hoarseness. I heartily recommend It to those who have use
for their vocal powers.9
WHO can know so well as an orator
what an orator needs?
Who has made such a severe test of
the virtues of Peruna as the public
speaker who has been called upon day
and night to exert his vocal organs to
the fullest extent before large au
diences? Such a man knows what he Is talk
ing about. No severer test could be
applied to any catarrh medicine.
Professor Bulkley, one of the finest
orators in the land, is a most indefati
gable public speaker.
He is also a friend
of Peruna, because
he understands its
value, both as a pre
ventive and a relief

and catarrh of the vocal organs. Many
others have had the same experience
as Professor Bulkley.
Mrs. J. A. Baker, 380 Locust Ave.,
Amsterdam, N. T., writes:
"Four years ago I lost my voice, so
that I was unable to speak above a
whisper for seven weeks.
"I read some circulars in regard to
Peruna. I bought a bottle at once and
took it In teaspoonful doses every hour,
and In two days I could talk. I will
never be without it,"

the hands of the police July 4, which
caused a stormy scene In the House the
next day, was today fined $250 for carry

when arrested.
The switchboard of the Central Tele
graph station in St. Petersburg was
burned out today, destroying all com
munication with the provinces. While
there is a suspicion that the "accident"
was arranged by revolutionists, no evi
dence to support it can be found, and
the telegraph department authorities are
apparently satisfied with the explana
tion of the employes. However, the pub
lic is cut off from telegraph communica
tion with the interior for some time, but
the government retains the possibility of
communicating with the provincial au
thorities over the railroad wires. Cable
communication Is not affected".
Near the village of Chernipoff, a de
tachment of dragoons, sent to arrest
two agitators, was met by a crowd of
peasants armed with scythes, rakes and
pitchforks. In the fight which followed
five peasants were filled and 12 dragoons
were wounded, three of them fatally.

STOLTPIN'S SCHEME FAILS.
Leaders of People Refuse Aid.
Throws Sops to Liberals.
ST. PETERSBURG, July 28. New
obstacles have been encountered by
Premier Stolypin in his efforts to se
cure the services In a reorganized Cab
inet of men of standing in Russia out
side of official life. The conditions laid
down by M. Guchkoff and Prince Lvoff
are understood to have been rejected,
and they have definitely refused to enter
the Ministry. This presages the practical
shipwreck of the entire scheme, since
without the participation of the lion
bureaucratic elements, it would be diffi
cult to convince even the Conservatives,
much less the Liberals, of the sincerity of
the government's promises.
Meanwhile. M. Stolypln is energetically
and continually tnying to persuade the
country that his policy of "strong-handed
reform" does not Involve reaction. He
has announced in the provinces that the
"pale" would be granted Zemstvo in
stitutions, and denies that the govern
ment intends to interfere with the legal
electoral campaigns of the various par
ties, in virtue of which he has authorized
the holding of a National Congress of
Constitutional Democrats at Moscow. He
has instructed the police of St.v Peters
burg not to interfere with the Jewish
members of the outlawed Parliament who,
under the law, when they cease to en
Joy the immunity entailed by their mem
bership of Parliament forfeited the right
to remain in the capital more than 24
hours.

day says that the situation is not differ
ent from what it was under Count Witte,
when the latter, as Premier, was "filling
the world with liberal declarations while
his wicked partner, Durnovo, was putting
on the screws again."
The Rech adds: "We hear the voice
of Jacob, but we feel the hand of Esau."
Five additional members of the Council
of the Empire, MM. Shiskoff, Verkowsky,
Lappodahilevsky, Berelishlne and Vernad
sky, have formally resigned. They have
signed an open letter setting forth that
the retention of their mandates would be
equivalent to acquiescing in the dissolu
tion of Parliament and the restoration of
the bureaucratic - regime, enabling it to
pass the budget of 1907 without the ap
proval of the people's representatives.
The Rech says that in spite of his ad
vanced age, M. Pobodienostoff, formerly
Procurator-General of the Holy Synod,
has the dominant influence over the Em-,
peror.
