CHICAGO EXECUTIVE SAYS THAT,

CEASE.
POLIGE WILL MAINTAIN ORDER

WILL BE ARRESTED AND
PUNISHED.
MOB CHARGES FREIGHT WAGONS
POLICE USE CLUBS AND REYOL-
VERS AND DRIVE THEM
BACK.
Chicago, July 19.Riots of the last
lew days aroused Mayor Harrison, and
yesterday at the solicitation of the
members of the Illinois Manufaetur-*
ers association and leading merchants
and prominent citizens in general, he'
issued a proclamation late yesterday
afternoon in which he said:
"I do hereby warn all persons to re
frain from lounging about, loitering,
stopping or gathering together at any
place within the city where there is
disturbance or danger of disturbance
from the disorderly or riotous conduct
of anyf,.persons. All persons are here
by warned that, such loitering, loung
ing or congregating is contrary to
law. Any person who blocks the street
or interferes with the duties of the
police in the vicinity where disturb
ance is going on, will be arrested and
punished in accordance with law."
Judge Holdum's injunction restrain
ing the picketing of the Kellogg
Switchboard plant, was upheld by the
appellate court yesterdty, and the
methods of patrolling the plant and
the violence incident thereto are de
clared to be contrary to the law and
subversive of good government. The
court declares that not only was pick
eting carried on, but that it was ac
companied
By Acts of Violence.
"'The siege of the Kellogg plant," it
says, "is lil^e that of a citadel in time
of mediaeval warfare," and "methods
of the strikers conflict with public
policy and would restrict the lawful
rights of a person to work where he
(chooses or to employ whom he
chooses."
Pursued by a hooting, yelling mob,
from which an occasional missile was
thrown, a cavalcade of patrol -.vagons
and two trucks made the second jour
ney of the day to the Chicago Ter
minal freight house about three
o'clock yesterday afternoon. They
were proceeding with little difficulty,
when at Ogden avenue and Polk street
a crowd of hoodlums, reinforced by
teamsters and wagons, suddenly ap
peared around the corner and charg-ed
the caravan. A dozen policemen
leaped from the wagons and with
drawn clubs and revolvers charged
the mob, breaking their attack-and
driving the 100 feet from the wagons,
which then began to advance. During
the melee four airests were made and
the hoodlums th.^vvn into the pairol
wagons.' This prompt work discour
aged the mob, and the trip was com
pleted without further interference.
RELIANCE IS DEFEATED.

.at the line. As Reliance allows Con
stitution 2 minutes and 17 seconds In

Pull
Canal Treaty Will Probably
Through.
Colon, July 19. The latest news
frcm Bogota is to the effect that there
has been a marked change in favor of
accenting the Panama canal treaty.
Thirty-four congressmen are now
known to favor its ratification and
forty-six are opposed to it. It is ex
pected, however, that there will be a
change in the ranks of the latter. It
is likely that a modification of the
treaty will be asked for. This will in
clude a demand that the United
States shall increase its payment.to
Colombia for the right to build the
canal from $10,000,000 to $25,000,000.
The telegraph line to Bogota is again
interrupted.

CANCER EATING
HIS LIFE
NO LONGER,. ANY DOUBT THAT
POPE IS SUFFERING FROM
THAT MALADY.
MOST COMFORTABLE DAY YET
RECOVERY IMPOSSIBLE, BUT HE
MAY SURVIVE FOR SEV-
ERAL DAYS.
MAKE DEATH AGONIES LESS ACITE
ABOUT ALL MEDICAL SKILL CAN
DO FOR THE DISTINGUISHED
PATIENT.
Rome, July 19.The pope had the
most comfortable day yesterday since
his illness began. He is passing one
of the rallies which are peculiar to the
last stages of cancer, for there is no
longer the slightest doubt that that is
the dread malady from which he is
suffering. The following medical
statement of the case may be accepted
as accurate:
In 1899 a skin tumor on the pope's
right side was extirpated by Dr. Maz
zoni. Its nature could not be ascer
tained because the pope did not wish
it to be examined, but he kept it for
some time and then threw it away.
His present illness was at first diag
nosed as pneumonia. Dr. Rossani,
when he was called in consultation,
thought "it was pleurisy until the
pleuric fluid was withdrawn.
Then the physicians found that it
presented neither clinically nor mi
croscopically the characteristic of the
ordinary liquid produced by pleurisy.
It contained
Malignant or Cancerous
neoplasms, which left no doubt that
the tumor of 1899 had been of the
same nature, and that the malady had
returned in a ne,^ location.
The second puncture yielded a
liquor with such a large proportion of
blood that the physicians were un
willing to operate tor the third time
when Thursday's difficulty in breath
ing suggested it, because there was
the greatest danger that another
drainage would produce falal pleuric
hemorrhage.
Recovery is impossible, but it is
not unlikely that the pope will sur
vive for several days. Such are the
facts of the situation, which the some
what misleading bulletins of the past
ten days have concealed. Serious
comments on the case are current
among the medical profession here,
which promise interesting conse
quences. It may be said on behalf of
the pope's physicians, whether their
first diagnosis was mistaken or not,
that their treatment lias been ade
quate and skilful". It would not have
i been radically different if the
True Nature cf the Disease
had been known at the o'Ufeset. More
over, it is good nursing that is chiefly
I prolonging the lite of his holiness.
I Nothing could exceed Dr. Lapponi's
assiduity and skill in this respect. It
is not improbably that the end may
yet come suddenly by internal hem
orrhage.
"I cannot say that the pope is bet
ter, but he is no worse."
In these words Dr. Lapponi last
evening summed up the pontiff's con
dition at the end of the second week
of his illness, in all the varying peri
ods of which the pontiff scarcely has
had a quieter day than yesterday,
with the result that last night's bulle
tin declares him to be a little less de
pressed.
From last nieht's examination of the
pope it appears that the liquid in the
pleura remains at about the same
level. As his holiness is reduced al
most to a skeleton, if a new operation
is decided on it will not be because of
any hope of saving the patient's life,
but simply for the purpose of render
ing the death agony less acute.

Paris, July 19. Cardinal Gibbons,
who has just arrived in Paris on his
way to Rome, is the object of great
interest here on account of the report
published yesterday that there is a
possibility of his candidature for the
papacy. A large number of Catholic
prelates in France believe the influ
ence of the church would be tre
mendously developed were either a
French or American pope to succeed
Leo XIII. In case they had to choose
they would prefer an American to an
Italian pope.
On account of the recent ecclesi

Grand
1 Forks, N. I).. July l'.i.Dur-

at the city jail and four of the worst
crooks that have been in the North
west for some time are again at large.
The men ere arrested by Oflirer
Jarvis for attempting to sell some
things, among them a diamond. The
men refused to give their names, but
two are wanted also at Winnipeg for
stealing some jewelry. They had a
quantity of rings on them when ar
rested. It is certain.that they had an
accomplice, who came to the jail when
a chance offered, and with an ice pick
proke open the private box of the
chief, secured the keys to the cells and
let the criminals out. They started
toward Crookston, a'V after reaching
Mallory all trace of them was lost.

it, and it was necessary to haul the
