NEILL MAY MEET SMALL I'nlon President Goes to New York, Giving Color to Rumors of Nego tiation, Which He Denies. XeiU Still Busy. CHICAGO, Aug:. 24. (Special.) A crisis will be reached in the tele raphers' strike within the next few days, according to the expectations of Chicago operators. Announcement to this effect was made today by Frank Likes, chairman of the local strike committee, at a meeting-. Mr. Likes declined to disclose fully his reasons for .making this statement, but from other sources it was learned that the operators are expecting that some sort of an offer will be received from the companies within a short time. In view of the determined stand taken by both corporations against dealing with the' strikers collectively, this report was viewed with skeptic ism in many quarters. Says Companies Weaken. It is said that many of the strikers would be willing to return to work upon the promise that they be given free use of typewriters and a moder ate wage increase. Recognition of the union, it Is declared, would not be Insisted upon. The statement of Mr. Likes concern ing a possible crisis was made during a dispute concerning the advisability of holding a strikers' meeting tomor row. "There may be Important disclosures to make tomorrow," said Mr. Likes. "It is entirely possible that a crisis may be reached." When questioned later regarding his statements, Mr. Likes said: "Wo have information that the com panies are weakening a little and it looks as though there would be a con ference between all parties concerned next Monday. Our information Is that the companies are now intimating that an adjustment of the dispute may yet jl)U reached." t Small's Trip Starts Ituirtor. Further color to the various' rumors afloat was given by the departure in the afternoon of International President S. J. Small for New York. Mr. Small declared that he was "on a tour of Inspection' and had made no arrangements to meet United States Commissioner of Labor Nelll, President Samuel uompers of the American Federation of Labor, or any other possible peace envoy while in New York. It Is believed; however, that he entertains! hopes of opening negotiations for a settlement while there. The attitude of both Superintendent Cook of the Western Union Company and Superintendent Capen of the Postal Com pany yesterday was the antithesis of that of Mr. Likes and others In the strikers ranks. "The problem before us Is to handle our telegraph business," said Mr. Cook. "I might add that we are doing It. We are not oniy receiving an Business, but send ing out all messages as well. The strike Is not bothering us." XeiU Still Negotiates. A dispatch from Washington tonight stated that the officers of the local union there predict a settlement of the struggle before next Wednesday. Not more than passing notice would probably be given the statement were It not for the fact that Mr. NeiU since he left Chicago has been conducting all his negotiations through the officers of the Washington union. The Washington union officials declared that the settlement would be "honorable" to the union. Mr. Nelll would not admit that he had information that the end of the strike was at hand While It is said that Mr. Nelll has- been unable to make any progress In the direc tion of arbitration, it is bci.eved in Wash ington union .circles that the strike may be ended by other means. STRIKE WHEX "BOSS" LEAVES Macon, Ga., Operators Walk Out During Manager's Absence. MACON. Ga.. Aug. 24. Manager W. B. Stuart, of the local Western Union office, left Saturday morning to reopen the Al bany, Ga., office. When he returned here he found only the chief operator and one woman operator on duty.

It was formerly part of the royal palace at Sheen, once the home of Anglo Saxon monarchs, and has history almost as interesting as the Tower of London. Edward III died there in 1377. After his death the palace was "pillaged by the servants. Richard II, with Geoffrey Chaucer as Clerk of Works, added greatly- to the building, and Edward IV settled It on Queen Elizabeth. At the end of the year 1497 It was burned. It was rebuilt in 1501, and Henry VII died there In 1509. leaving, it is said, treasure to tiie value of $9,000,000 hidden In vaults which have not yet been discovered. The last royal person to reside In it was yueen Char lotte, to whom a lease was granted In 1817. The palace faces Richmond Green. It contains five reception-rooms, ten bed rooms and two bathrooms, with stables and coachhouses. ley. Assistant Attorney-General, leaves here today to establish naturalization districts In the West and select attor neys to represent the Department or. Justice In the districts established, to carry into effect the provisions of the new -naturalization law. Four districts will be created to cover the West and Northwest, with i headquarters at Denver, San Francisco, Seattle and St. Paul respectively. The boundaries of the districts will be de termined by Mr. Cooiey after visiting each of the cities named and after he selects an attorney in each city to act as the agent of the Department. NAUGHTY RECKS DEMANDS HUGE FORTUNE American Claimant's Step to Secure $25,000,000 in England. NEW YORK. Aug. 24. Special.) Fresh from making a formal demand on the Coutts Bank of London for (25,000,000, Edward A. McShane, a Manhattan attor ney, asserted that he was confident of getting that amount for his client, L. A. H. Heavlslde, of Flatbush. The man in whose name he presented the claim Is not to have any part of it save such as he may receive through his wife. The real claimant Is Heavlside's father- in-law, William Fitzherbert. of Parkville, and as he Is 79 years old, those who prob ably will have the spending of the money are his nine daughters and 38 grandchildren. All of Fitzherbert's daughters are mar ried. Three of them live in Brooklyn. If they inherit almost 3, 000, 000 each from their father they will have to thank the foresight of Lady Fitzherbert, morganatic wife of King George IV of England, who Invested so shrewdly. Those millions she deposited In the Coutts Bank, and they grew tenfold. Lady Fitzherbert, when she was merely Mrs, Fitzherbert. a young widow with two promising sons, attracted the attention of the Fourth George, when he was Prince Regent. Prince George wooed the comely relict as only the first gentleman of Eu rope could do. but his wiles didn't win her until he consented to make her his wife. As her marriage with the Prince Regent was recognized as regular by Rome, that satisfied her. Of course, as soon as he found the union menaced his right of succession to the British throne. Prince George assured Charles Fox. Whig leader of the Commons, there never had been a morganatic marriage. Mr. Fitzherbert. of Parkville. asserts he Is a. lineal descendant of one of the two sons Mrs. Fitzherbert had before she met the Prince. The other son died without heirs, he asserts. Edward VII, on ascend ing the throne, ordered that the Fitzher bert money In the Coutts Bank be ad vertised, and thus it came to the Brook lyn ite's attention. That his claim might not lapse In the event of his death before getting the money, Mr. Fitzherbert assigned his in terests to his son-in-law. Heavlslde, for purposes or litigation, and all his daugh ters did likewise. So It was that in Lon don Mr. McShane demanded the money.

MONEY IN GETTING-HURT Young Italian Purposely Gets- in Way of Automobiles. NAPLES, Aug. 24. (Special.) The Duke of Aosta was motoring the other day with his mother on the Via Roma, when his automobile collided with a young man named Russo. The Duke stopped and took the man to a hospital, where It was found that he had only a slight flesh wound. 'The Interest taken In the noble automoblllst's victim proved to be unfortunate for htm, because It was discovered that Russo for'a considerable time had been living on compensations paid him by wealthy motorists. Much practice and remarkable agility enabled him to sustain a motor accident suffi ciently serious to make sure of a hand some indemnity from motorists, wno al ways preferred to settle privately rather than face a lawsuit. T OF OSCAR TRIEGS They Cause Court to Grant Wife Divorce and Maiden Name.

REPEATS KOEPENICK TRICK Bogus Russian Soldier Uses Troops to Guard Plunder. ST. PETERSBURG. Aug. 24. The fame of the cobbler of Koepenlck seems to have penetrated as far away as Harbin, Manchuria. A few days ago a man In an officer's uniform presented himself armed with a power of attorney at the treasury of the Trans-Amur division and demanded 66,656 rubles, the estimated ex penditure of the First Brigade for the month. The papers were in perfect order and . the supposed officer received a check on the Russo-Chinese Bank for the amount, which was duly paid. Part of the money was counted out In sliver coin, which seemed to annoy the man, but as the bank had a legal right to make part of its pay ments In silver he consented grumbllngly to take the heavy stuff, but telephoned for a convoy of three privates, who escorted him to the railway station. There the supposed officer ordered the men to stand guard over the bags of sliver and left, carrying off the rest of the money himself. The guard kept watch for 24 hours without any relief coming and would probably still be there had not the garrison commander made Inquiries from the staff of the First Brigade, where noth ing was known about the officer, his mis sion or the money.
