SETTLEMENT OF
LABOR TROUBLES
If a I'lau or Arbitration Can He Agreed
Upon as Now Seems Probable, Sym
pathetic Strikes May lie Abolished.
Chicago, June 15 Sympathetic strikes
are to be a thing o( the past if a plan of
arbitration can be agreed upon by the
liuilding Trades Unions and the asBoda
tioiif iitlliliated with the Building Con
triu.turfl' Council. A declaration to this
effect will come today from the delegates
who participated in the joint conference
with the contractors on Tuesday and
Wednesday, und who were in secret
caucus all day yesterday debating a plan
of settlement of the labor trouble.
It was agreed practically by the dele
gates that the demand of the contractors
for abolition of the sympathetic strike
was one which could be granted without
detriment to the cause of labor, and tho
committee was appointed to prepare a
resolution which would give formal ex
presBion to this sentiment. A subcom
mittee wi'.s formed to draft acommunica
tion to tho Building Contractors' Council
on the name subject.
The subcommittee will send to the
Uuilding Contractors' Council today a
general Btatenientjof the position of the
delegates on the sympathetic striko
question. It will declare, as near as can
1j learned, that sympathetic strikes
eliould be abolished. At the same time
tliu subcommittee will reatllrm the deter
winntlon of union labor to preserve the
liuildiug Trades' Council.
The arbitration plau which lias been
drawn up provides for the established of
permanent arbitration hoard, and aldo
board of appeals, which shall act
ipi-'edi y and adjust every diU'erenco
promptly as it arisoe. Pending the Und
'"KOI the board, work shall continue
""Interruptedly. In this way strikes and
lockout will ho eliminated, and in uo
case wnl building bo delayed.

Sr. Lous, June 11. Cars on all tho
transit company's lines aro apparently
ri"ilng with as much regularity and as
jrcu from Interfeuceu as before the strike.
l'0 olllrers of tho company state that
during tho past two weeks they have
received applications for employment
rum severul hundred strikers. The only
'rouble of a serious naturo experienced
lat night was an attempt to blow up a
'nail iar on Broadway and North
Market street.
N to tho date the strike has cost tho
""payers of tho city over a million
pilars for protection alone, not taking
toto account the heavy loss sustained by
"'orclmuts and citizens jjenurslly, as well
a that of the Transit company and its
"hiking employes. Tho strikers as-
euibloil at the Coliseum today and op-
.'roved now propositions for presentation
lerl'? TrilIt Company looking to a
termination of the strike.
Lord Roberts, the British have gained a
strategic position of some importance, as
the town is not only the terminus of an
other railroad to Johannesburg, but it is
within eacy reach of the KroonBtad Vir
fontein railroad.
The Cronje who surrendered the place
is a son of the famous general. The son
was prominent during the siege of
Mafeking. Apart from the tact that
Lord Koberts' dispatch came direct from
Pretoria, Bhowing the telegraph is re
opened, tho only other point of interest
is tho fact that the Boers whom General
Methuen wbb reported to have so utterly
routed have recuperated sufficiently to
attack a reconstruction train.

Chic ago, June 13. A special to the
Tribune from Victoria, B. C, says:
News is brought by steamer of the battle
which occurred on May 20 south Paa
Ting Fu. After seven hours' fighting
the Chrislains succeeded in defeating
and routing tho Boxers with a Iocs of
seventy killed, tho victors having one
killed and sis wounded.
It seems that a mob of 2000 Boxers at
tacked tho Konian Catholic villagee, near-
Iv nil converts of tho Koman Catholic
mlssons, who had anticipated the attack
and were all armed, whereas the attack
ing Boxers were armed only with iron
bIiow poles, hatchets, clubn, stones and
knives. Tho Boxers came right on into
the gales of tho city, which were left
open, anda3 they entered, carrying their
(lags with yellow ground and red border,
and their jo8f.es In a big car, tho
villagers poured in a heavy fire from
some of tho near-by liousee. Attack
after attack was made, and every time
tho attacking Boxers were carried back.
At length, after seven hourt' fighting,
tho rebels fled in disorder. Tho villagers
afterward counted no lees than toveuty
dead Boxers, besides many wounded.

DEWEY'S BOOM
AT AN END
Admiral's Friends Hope He Will Re
tire From Politics.
Washington, June 15. Universal
hope is expressed here that Admiral
Dewey will hereafter remain out of
politics, even though his withdrawal
was accomplished in a very bungling
manner. Had he boldly faced the situ
ation and assumed the responsibility
for his announced candidacy, and open
ly accepted the rebuff, he would have
partially re-established himself with
the American people, but in blaming it
on certain "leaders" whom we know not,
"thanking God the people don't want
him for president," and, in the next
breath, saying "the people do not select
tho president," showB lack of grasp on
matters political and stamps him even
more deeply than before as a political
failure. Dewey failed to grasp bis op
portunity when it was offered. He can
never recover it and his friends hope he
haB learned that lesson.
In speaking of the China situation,
Admiral Dewey says the outcome will
be the adoption of the American policy
of open portB for American commerce on
equal grounds with all other commercial
nations. He eayB the results of the
Spanish war make this possible, and de
clares most emphatically that he is a
thorough expansionist and that the
acquisition of the Philippines alone gives
us our present stand in the Orient.
Catarrh Uauuot lie Cured-
with local applications, as they cannot
reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh
is a blood or constitutional disease, and
in order to cure it you must take inter
nal remedies. Hall's Catarrh Cure is
taken internully, and acts directly on
the blood and mucous Biirfaces. Hall's
Catarrh Cure is not a quack medicine.
It was was prescribed by one of the beet
physicians in this country for years, and
is a regular prescription. It is composed
of the bcBt tonics known, combined with
the best blood purifiers, acting directly
on the mucous surfaces. The perfect
combination of tho two ingredients is
what produces such wonderful results in
curing Catarrh. Send for testimonials,

San Francisco chinamen Win.
San Francisco, June 15. In the
United States circuit court, Judge Mor
row rendered a decision in the case of
Jew Ho against the board of health of
this city, dissolving the general quaran
tine of Chinatown, enforced by the
board of health, owing to the alleged
exietence of plague in the city. Morrow
held that the qnarrantine was dis
criminatory in its character.
Regarding the evietence of the plague,
Morrow stated that he was not qualified
to pass judicially on the question, owing
to the conflicting testimony of physicians,
but that if it came within his power to
decide in the matter, he would declare
that plague does not, nor has not,existed.
