The typesetters have been drawn into the trouble by an effort of the leaders to tie up press utterances which have ben unfavorable to them The strike leaders believe they can get along better without the papers. The government in its decision to arrest the leaders of the federation, holds the organization responsible for the outbreak Thursday at Vigneux and other labor riots. Labor leaders say they are prepared to fight and a great industrial up­ heaval is threatened. Government officials explained that the typesetters are working under an agreement and cannot strike without breaking it. N ew Constitution to be Put Into Effect W ithout Delay.

Stannard M ay N o t be Able to Slip O u t o f Landis' Decision, Chicago, Aug 3.—United States At­ torney Sims and Special Consul Kel­ logg and Wilkerson todav drafted a petition to the United States circuit court for a lehearing of the Standard Oil case, in which the appellate court recently reversed Judge Landis. Judge Grosscup and his associates will be asked to reverse themselves on the ground that they erred in de­ claring that Judge Landis erred The petition will aver that the circuit court misinterpreted the testimony, | misread Judge Landis' obiter dictum and did not understand the legal premises on which he based his im ­ portant decision. . The three points raised by the court will be met squarely. The hrst is that Judge Landis attempted to im­ pose a fine upon the New Jersey Standard Oil company for the o f­ fenses of the Indiana corporation. This is to be flatly denied and the record to be cited to confirm the claim that the court did not read the decision of the lower court as it applied to the evidence. The second point, that the whole offenses were in settlements and not in each shipment, and that ignorance of existing rates excused the accept­ ance of rebates, will be respectfully characterized as misapplication of the law and a ruling contrary to its known maxims. The third point, that the fine of $29.- 240,000 is excessive and confiscatory, is to be met by the contention that the corporation is a chronic offender and gained many times the amount of the fine by alleged rebating methods. The financial statements of the com­ pany, showing net gains of more than $50,000,000 since the rehating be gan, the government regards as elo­ quent arguments.

Washington, July 31— Acting Secre­ tary of the Navy Newberry announced yesterday that of the bids submitted for colliers under the provisions of the naval appropriation act at the last ses­ sion of congress, none will be satisfac­ tory. lie announced also that, as no emergency existed requiring immediate delivery of nny collier, the navy de partment would invite tenders of jol­ liers to be delivered within 12 months, specifying in tho invitations the gen eral characteristics, speed, carrying ca pacity and equipment necessary for the naval service. The appropriation was $525.000 for each vessel, and the wording of the act was such as to afford an advantage to the Massachusetts company, which had three colliers practically ready for delivery. The department decided that the bids wero excessive, and did not meet all of the requirements. The an nouncement of tho rejection of all bids was made after a conference held by Mr. Newberry with Admiral Converse, president of the board of construction and with representatives of the com panics which submitted bi Is. The bids were received during last month. William Cramp & Son of I'hil adelphia, proposed to build three col liers at $475,000 each; the New York S T A R T E D F R O M B R U S H F IR E .

L -fe- repre- St. Paul, Minn., Aug. 1.—The an­ nouncement that the Hill lines have abandoned the marine portion o f their j share in the trade with Japan and China, while retaining affiliation with Japanese steamship lines, came as a i shock to many people of the North- ; west. According to the chairman of l the board, James J. Hill of the Great I Northern, it was to be expected. "W hy,” exclaimed Mr. Hill, "our Pacific trade has been gone for a year. , As long as 15 months ago I told them 1 what was coming." Asked if the action of the American I trans-continental roads in withdraw­ ing from the Pacitic carrying trade j was due to resentment at the action of the interstate commerce commis­ sion, Mr. Hill replied: "Resentment, no. The commission cannot be blamed for enforcing the 1 law. The Pacitic trade was given up j because it did not pay. America to­ day has no flag on the high seas, or might as well not have, for we cannot | compete with any other country, and must hand the load over to anybody that asks for it. The only way for us to continue in the Pacific trade would be for the railroads to own their own steamers and run them at a heavy loss. "W e are not a seafaring nation. We have no sailors, though under the law Americans must constitute two- thirds or three-fourths of the crews. What we must have to make an ocean-carrying trade posible is not I subsidies, but intelligent legislation, legislation that helps instead of hin­ ders.” _________________ Tender, Juicy, Steaks, A ll B A R B E R S HAIR CUTTING À SPECIALTY Postoffice Row Pacific Ave. - ing T ra d e Possible.

Wshington, July 30.— Upon applica­ tion of the defendants in the Pacific Lumber cases, the Interstate Com­ merce commission has extended the effective dates of its orders from Au­ gust 15 to October 15. This action was taken upon the showing made by the carriers involved that, owing to the immense number of rates involved, it would be a physical impossibility to check up the rates and print and file the new tariffs before August 15, and also upon their assurance that, if the extension was granted, they would not apply for an injunction to restrain the commission’s order from becoming ef­ fective. They expressly reserve the right to test the reasonableness of the rates ordered by the commission in a suit to be brought for that purpose or in suits which may develope out of reparation claims by shippers who have been ship­ ping under the advanced rates. This does not include the case involving rates from the Willamette valley via San Francisco, on which the Southern Pacific has already filed a petition in San Francisco asking an injunction against^the commission’s order.

Washington, Aug. 5.-—The monthly statement of the public debt shows that at the close of business July 31, 1908, the debt, less cash in the treas­ ury. amounted to $958,809,823, which is an increase for the month of $20,- 677,414. The cash in the treasury is $1,791,038,029, against which there are demand liabilities outstanding amounting to $1,437,409,856, which leaves a cash balance of $353,638,173. The apparent increase in the public debt is accounted for by the loss o f cash in the treasury, which, during July (.mounted to nearly $36,000,000. This loss was occasioned by the large also by the redemption o f the notes o f failed and liquidating national banks and the reducing o f circulation, o f na­ tional banks. Kills All E xeq uaturs. Washington, July 30.— DrewLinard, American consul at Ceiba, Honduras, cabled the State department today that President Davuilla had canceled his ex­ equatur and those o f all the other con­ suls at that port. There was no ex­ planation o f the act in the cablegram, but it is thought here that the consuls united to prevent the execution of rev­ olutionists who had incurred the dis­ pleasure o f President Davuilla. It is likely that an additional gunboat will be ordered to Amapala at once to assist the Milwaukee in making a demonstra­ tion against the revolution.
