MANISTEE, Mich., July 14.—The
north side of the city, including the
cemetery, Orchard beach resort and
the suburbs of Parkdale and east Lake,

Say It Is Due to Spite.
The officials of the company allege
spite work, growing out of friction
over placing rails over the newly pav

the city to pay $2,000 of the expenses.
The company hauled the cars to the
upper bridge, intending to get over
with horse power, but the bridge was

Reports of Heavy Damage by Water
From Many Places.

washed away nine buildings, entail-
Ing a loss of $25,000. A wall of water
four feet high came rushing down a
dry run in the heart of the city at 3
o'clock.
Residents barely had time to escape
with their lives and were unable to
save any property. The buildings
most damaged included the M. E.
church.
The crest of the flood of the Dcs
Moines river has reached Ottumwa
and is rapidly drawing near to towns
further down stream.
The Skunk river, at Brighton, and

KEOKUK, lowa, July 14.—Just as
the Dcs Moines river began to fall at
the lower portion after the floods from
the upper waters another flood came
and caught everybody by surprise. At
the mouth the river rose eight feet to
day, and tonight is still rising one inch
an hour steadily notwithstanding the
breaking of levees.
The levee of the Keokuk Canning
company broke early today, and thou
sands of acres of cucumbers and toma
toes and 2,000 acres of corn were flood
ed. The loss of the canning compiVty is
$10,000, and of farmers twice as much
more. The total loss here today is

THREE GREAT DAYS
AT PUBLIC BATHS
Over 20,000 Bathers Recorded on Sat
urday, Sunday and Monday at
Harriet Island.
The past three days at the miblic
baths have been record breakers. Sat
urday, 6,218 bathers were recorded;
Sunday the number was 7,308, and yes
terday the figure was a few over 7,000.
The receipts were $108.81, $207.03 and
$125, respectively. In addition to this,
the grounds were thronged with pleas
ure seekers.
Sunday was the banner day, in fact,
at no time since the institution opened
for the season has the weather been as
ideal. Saturday a rain storm inter
rupted when the day's business was at
its highest, and last night the atmos
phere was so cold that it deterred
many from entering the water. These
conditions have prevailed ever since
the season opened, but despite it Dr.
Ohage has strong hopes of exceeding
his record of a year ago.
Harriet island is becoming a great
resort for picnic parties, and the calls
for the seting apart of certain days for
certain societies and organizations is
becoming frequent. On Wednesday
the Royal Neighbors and a church or
ganization will use the island as a pic
nic grounds, and on next Sunday the
local Order of Druids will have the
grounds. This privilege includes the
right to sell refreshments. For the ac
commodation of those who bring music
along and desire to dance the pavilion
in the center of the grounds is being
enlarged.
A notable increase this year is in the
number of bathers who bring their
own suits. No revenue is enjoyed from
this class except where they purchase
a locker for their clothes, but Dr.
Ohage says they are welcome just the
same. The small boy is in the major
ity in this respect.
NATIONAL CONFERENCE
OF PUBLIC EXAMINERS
It is Called by S. T. Johnson for July
29.
Public Examiner Johnson, of this
state, has called a national conference
of the state bank examiners, to take
place at the Hotel Cadilac, in Detroit,
Mich., July 29.
For some time past Mr. Johnson has
been agitating this idea of national or
ganization among the state bank ex
aminers of the different states for the
purpose of adopting uniform practices
and customs in the financial manage
ment of state public institutions, and
securing as far as may be practicable,
uniform legislation as to the conduct
of state banking departments. He has
been in communication for some time
with the public examiners of other
states, and it has now been left to him
to arrange for the conference as has
been stated.

BISHOP MULDOON.
Temporarily Named to "Act as Archbishop of Chicago.
John Keating, "will occupy itself with
the extension of the order, and will
take action on the death of Archbishop
Feehan, of Chicago, the national chap
lain of the order. His death is the
more deeply regretted c.s he was car
rying on an important work in or
ganizing the ranks of the order in the
old country. We expect that the or
ganization in Ireland and that in the
United States will be united in the
next six or eight months.
"As to the charges that the executive
has been influenced by the Clan Na
Gael or any other body, I will say that
the administration for the last four
years has been as conservative as any
I can remember in my long connection
with the order."
Against the Clan Na Gael.
An anonymous circular is in circu
lation calling upon good Hibernians
to oppose any resolution which may
be offered indorsing the Clan Na Gael.
President Keating has announced
that he is not a candidate for re-elec
tion. James E. Dolan, of Syracuse,
N. V., national vice president, and
John A. Ryan, of Boston, are men
tioned as candidates.
The national directors decided to ad
vise the convention, through Presi
dent Keating's report, to refuse all re
quests of collateral societies of Irish
men for aid.
It was announced that the ladies'
auxiliary will ask to be given a sep
arate independent organization and to
be recognized as one of the branches
of the order. In view of the fact that
many members insist that such action
would set a bad precedent and would
entitle the Irish League, the Clan Na
Gael, the Gaelic leagle and other or
ganizations to be given the same priv
ileges, the directors agreed that a par
agraph advising conservatism shall be
inserted in President Keating's report.
Boer War Denounced.
Resolutions denouncing the Boer war
as the most unjust conflict of modern
times and a sacrifice to ambitions to
statements were incorporated in the
report. The usual denunciation of En
gland's oppression of Ireland was
adopted, but the national directors
carefully refrained from doing any
thing which might be construed as a
recognition of the contention of the
United League, the Clan Na Gael or
any other Irish society.
The national directors refused to
take up the cause of Rev. Father Han
neberry, who has been deposed from
•the faculty of the Roman Catholic uni
versity at Washington, and who has
asserted that the fund furnished by
the Hibernians to the support a choir
for teaching Gaelic at the university
was being improperly used. A fight

TOWN IN VENEZUELA
LIKELY XO-BE SHELLED
Nine Hundred Revolutionists Approach
Puerto-Cabello.
WILLEMSTAD, Island of Curacao,
July 14. —Advices f,rom Venezuela say
that 900 revolutionists under Gen.
Penaloza are approaching Puerto Ca
bello, state of Carabobjb, and that 400
men from the local bands are now con
centrated near El Patito. The Vene
zuelan government has fortified and
entrenched Puerto Cabello. An attack
on that place by the revolutionists is
expected shortly. If this occurs the city
will be shelled.
PORT OP SPAIN, Trinidad, B. W. 1.,
July 14.—President Castro has taken
command of the Venezuelan troops at
Barcelona. The force numbers about
3,900 men. President Castro found the
troops in a destitute condition, and has
spent the time since taking command
in reorganizing them, and they now
present a much better appearance.
President Castro asserts that he will
have crushed the revolution headed by
Senor Matos within fifteen days.
The revolutionist forces which were
marching on Caracas and Rolando
from the neighborhood of Barcelona
have ceased their advance and retired.
They apparently do not intend to ac
cept battle in that vicinity, but to
force Gen. Castro to engage them near
Urica or further in the interior, where
the country is very uneven and easily
defended, and well known to the rev
olutionists. Into this trap the revolu
tionists believe Gen. Campos' impet
uosity will carry him.
The rebels are receiving reinforce
ments daily. Hernandez Ron is re
ported to be coming with 106 men from
Pascua. and Gen. Lorenzo Guevara
with 900 from Piritu.
Military events in Venezuela during
the next week will, it is believed, de
cide President Castro's future. To pre
dict the result is impossible. Anarchy
is reported to exist in many places,
and the misery is said to be indescrib
able.
Carupano was evacuated yesterday
by the government forces and was im
mediately occupied by the revolution
ists.
Forthcoming Battleship.
WASHINGTON, D. C..' July 14.—The
construction bureau of the navy depart
ment is expediting as- far as it can, the
preparation at the New York navy yard
for building the battleship authorized to
be constructed at a government yard by
the last naval appropriation act. Plans
for the slip in which she is to be built
have been prepared and an electric trav
eling crane is to be built at a cost of
$90,000. The general specifications are ex
pected to be completd by Aug. 1. All
the steel contracts are to be made
through the department here.
Philippine Court- Martials.
WASHINGTON. D. C July 14.—The
war department has received copies of a
large number of courts-martial cases
from the Philippines, giving the records
of trials by military commissions. Pri
vate Will Denton, Company C. Ninth in
fantry, who deserted at- Balangiga in
August, 1901, was sentenced to death,
but the sentence was commuted to life
imprisonment. James H. Kearney, arti
ficer, Company M, Forty-third volunteers,
was sentenced to twenty years for aiding
a band of insurgents, but his sentence
was commuted to five years. The records
show that several natives have been con
victed before the military commission of
murdering their fellow natives.
Dry Dock Stays at Havana.
WASHINGTON, D. C, July 14.—The
navy department has decided to keep the
Havana dry dock, which was purchased
from Spain, at Hanava until the question
of coaling stations shall be decided, when
the department will determine whether
to send the dock to one of these stations
or to bring it to the United States. The
project of towing the dock to the Philip
pines, which was in contemplation for
more than a year, was abandoned when
an appropriation was secured for a new
dock in the Philippines.
Spanish War Veterans.
WASHINGTON. D. C. July 14.— Adjt.
Gen. 1.,. C. Dyer, of the Spanish war vet
erans, has received encouraging news
concerning the encampment of the Span
ish war veterans in Detroit next Septem
ber. President Roosevelt will receive a
hearty and fraternal welcome from his
comrades. The date j>f the encampment
is Sept. 22 to 25. The president will be

FIGHT TO A FINISH
Continued From First Page.
strike to return, or of calling out ev
ery teamster In the city who is affiliat
ed with the union.
The merchants then decided to await
the results of this meeting, and if the
teamsters should be ordered out, or If
they did not return when ordered
back, they would go for their own
freight. A mass meeting of the com
mission men will be held at 9 o'clock
tomorrow morning to taKe action. It
is not likely the teamsters will return
to work even if ordered by their offi
cers.
Ask for Police Protection.
During the clay the officials of the
Erie road sent a communication to
Chief of Police O'Neil. saying they had
been informed that merchants in the
city were preparing to deliver freight
tomorrow to the freight houses of the
Erie road, and demanding that the po
lice furnish them protection while it
was being done.
The letter was referred to Corpora
tion Counsel Walker, who declared
that it was the duty of the police to
furnish such protection, ana the Erie
people were informed that protection
would be give them. The police say
that it Is impossible for them to place
a man on every wagon that is seeking
the freight depots, and say they will
not attempt this. They declare they
will keep the way to the freight houses
open and suppress all disorder around
the depots. The danger to the men
who deliver freight is not so much at
the depot as it will be from the men,
who will follow them when they leave
the depot and attack tnem when iliey
are not in the vicinity of the police.
There was but few of such cases to
day, as nobody attempted to deliver
any freight. One driver took two small
packages to the depot of the Pennsyl
vania road, and at last accounts he
was still besieged there. Many pick
ets were waiting for him, and he was
afraid to leave the depot.
The firm of J. V. Farwell & Co. to
day attempted to take some cases of
dry goods from their warehouse to
their store on Market street, and a
crowd of men and boys surrounded
the wagon, cut the traces and refused
to allow the wagons to proceed. The
wagons had not been near a freight
depot, and were not bound for one.
The strikers would give no reason for
their attack in this case.
Charge Bad Faith.
Charges of bad faith were numerous
between President Curran, of the
Freight Handlers' union; Secretary
Driscoll, of the Chicago arbitratiion
board, and some of the railroad man
agers. These triangular accusations
were made after the various commit
tees appointed today had gone to the
railroad managers with an amended
schedule of wages, and with power to
act.
The amendments contained these
three propositions:
First—No probation.
Second—Straight time for all work
done by men paid by the month, out
side of the ten-hour day.
Third—Truckers to get 17% cents
per hour.
Committees which went to the Santa
Fe, Chicago & North-Western, Wis
consin Central and other railroad man
agers, are said to have asked for a
scale of 18 cents an hour. This was
half a cent above the schedule the
managers had been assured by both
the state board of arbitation and the
Chicago business men's board of arbi
tration would be accepted. Some of
the managers refused promptly to con
sider the proposition; others told the
committees to return later in the day.
Then Secretary Driscoll, of the Chi
cago board of arbitration, was com
municated with, as was also John S.
Field, E. B. Steele and other members
of the board.
Some of the managers wanted to
know if the agreement that 17% cents
an hour for truckers, which had been
fixed and approved by the board a few
days ago had been abandoned. They
were assured it had not. Explanations
followed and the fact that 18 cents had
been asked in some cases angered the
members of the local board of arbitra
tion.
Secretary Driscoll Bitter.
Secretary Driscoll began an investi
gation and said he learned that the
committees, instead of submitting the
schedules agreed upon, presented oth
ers, and that they did it under the ap
proval of President Curran, of the
Freight Handlers' union, who said 18
cents would be asked, and if it should
be refused 17% cents an hour would
be accepted.
"That puts us in a nice position be
fore the railroad managers," said Mr.
Driscoll, bitterly. "Curran has broken
faith with us and has gone back on his
agreement. That settles matters be
tween this board and the freight hand
lers. We shall have nothing more to
do with Curran or his union. Neither
shall we attempt to dissuade teamsters
if th^-y desire to return to work tomor
row. If they do that it means defeat
for the freight men.
"As a matter of fact, the teamsters
have been the backbone of this strike.
I do not believe they are going to per
mit themselves to be used as a club to
conduct negotiations with the railroad
managers."
Statement by Managers.
The general managers tonight issued
the following statement:
The thinking public of Chicago is in
terested in knowing the facts in regard
to the present strike, that it may draw
its own conclusions. As has been
stated before, an advance to freight
handlers was made by the railroads in
April. There was a further advance,
made effective from July 1. At the
same time the officers of the com
panies expressed their willingness to
meet their employes to confer with
them about wage scale or any other
grievance they might have. On July
7 the freight handlers stopped work on
all roads, without notice or conference.
Subsequent to this, on account of pres
sure from the press and other sources,
committees of freight handlers were
authorized by their union to meet their
employing officers, without, however,
having been invested with any author
ity to setlement. Naturally, no result
could, or did, come from such meet
ings.
During the last ten days, great pres
sure has been brought to bear upon the
railroad officers to make any conces
sions that could terminate the strike,
and the teamsters in Chicago, in viola
tion of the pledges of their authorized
officers and against the advice of their
officers, who were disposed to stand
firm, have struck, in order to bring fur
ther pressure to bear upon the rail
roads.
Railroad companies are as much
concerned in the welfare of Chicago as
any other vested interest, in that they
are opposed to making any concessions
that will result in yielding control of
their business to any labor organiza
tion. Aside from this fundamental
reason there are many other consider
ations which may be mentioned.
Increase Was Granted.
First —The offer made by the rail
road companies April 14 and July 1
gave' a substantial and adequate In
crease of wages.
Second—ln all conferences held be
tween the railway officers and commit
tees of the employes, it has been con
clusively shown that, as Individuals,
the men are satisfied with the terms
offered. In other words, the obstruc-

Signature of WuZ&X J<C4s+U44
tions in the way of a settlement come
from the officers of the union, who will
not allow the employes to accept the
terms the r\ilways have oirered.
Third—A large number of the em
ployes have already returned to work,
and many others have expressed a
willingness to do so as soon as the pre
vailing disorder has passed.
In this strike a singular spectacle is
presented on the part of organized la
bor. There is, on the one hand, a
union, the members of which struck
without notice, and whose officers
would not permit its members to deal
with their employers, and when under
pressure they did permit this, they re
fused to allow the committee to nego
tiate with the officers they met, while
on the other hand another union,
whose members, without grievance of
their own, have gone on a sympa
thetic strike, in complete violation of
their own agreements with their own
employers, made but a few weeks ago,
in settlement of the teamsters' strike,
disregarding in this respect all the ap
peals from their own union officers,
and from their employers, not to break
the agreement and pledges so recently
made. This situation must have its
discouraging aspect to tlie law-abiding
rank and file among the labor unions,
so many of whom, as individuals, real
ize the absolute necessity of maintain
ing the integrity of contracts and
agreements, and must deplore their
own inability to maintain such agree
ments with their einproyers when
made, as in this case, through the in
tervention of the union.
Proposition That May Be Accepted.
CHICAGO, July IB.—At 2 o'clock this
morning a conference betweee the na
tional executive board of the teamsters'
union, tarn owners' association freight
handlers' union, Chicago Federation of
Labor, and the truck teamsters, execu
tive committee, resulted in a new propo
sition which will be presented to the rail
way managers today. In the new propo
sition the freight handlers agree to ac
cept the wage sschedule as presented
July 1 with the following concessions:
First—Elimination of probation.
Second—Straight time for overtime for
all employes who are charged for lost
time.
Third— l 7% cents an hour for truckers.
It is claimed by eScretary Driscoll, of
the teamsters' union, that eight of the
railroads have agreed to the proposition
that will be submitted to them today.
President Curran, of the freight handlers'
union, states that if this is a fact, the
strike will be settled today.
Rioting Has to Come.
The strike reached the rioting stage
this evening, and it was only after the
police had charged on the crowd repeat
edly and arrested eleven men that a sem
blance of order was restored.
Eight policemen who were sent with two
teams from the Western Electric com
pany to the St. Paul freight house at
Carroll avenue and Union street, were
unable to extricate the drivers from the
pocket into which they were forced by
angry teamsters. A riot call sent to the
stations was responded to by several wa
gons of patrolmen, and after a fierce con
flict with the obstructing crowd the wa
gons wtys rescued and the drivers,
bruised by missiles, were able to reach
a place of safety.

Paine's Celery Compound
After the Failures of Physicians,
Special Medicines and Electric
Battery, Banishes Pain and
Tortures and Restores
Health.
In the ranks of sick, tortured an<i
diseased sufferers, many men and
women have become hopeless because
of the failure of physicians and their
medicines.
We would have all such dejected and:
despairing mortals take comfort this
very day. We would impress upon
them the blessed truth that Paine'3
Celery Compound is abundantly able
to save and cure even at the eleventh
hour. Paine's Celery Compound ac
complishes its life-saving work for the '
old and young when all other medical
treatment fails. A multitude of people
have furnished strong and incontro
vertible testimony in support of the
statement that "Paine's Celery Com
pound makes sick people well." Mr.
John W. Boyd, of Mishawaka, Ind., re
fers to iiis own case as follows:
"Last winter I was taken down with
a very severe attack of nervous and
muscular rheumatism, so bad that I
could not lie down, sit up or stand,
without the most excuciating pain. I
was all the time under the care of two
of the best physicians of the place, but
I did not improve. I took different
rheumatic cures and used an electric
battery a half-hour each day for ten.
days without any relief. Finally I con
cluded to try Paine's Celery Compound,
and to my surprise after using one
half of a bottle I was able to get out,
and before I used the whole bottle I
went to work and have worked every
day since. -I have gained 20 pounds in
weight and am feeling first rate. '

WHERE FOUR-LEAF CLOVER GROWS
I know a place where the sun is like gold
And the cherry blooms burst with snow.
And down underneath is the loveliest
nook
Where the four-leaf clovers grow.
One leaf is for hope, and one is for faith.
And one is for love, you know;
And God put another one in for luck,—
If you search you will find where they
grow.
But you must have hope, and you must
have faith.
You must love and be strong; and so.
If you work, if you wait, you will find tho
place
Where the four-leaf clovers grow.
