CHICAGO, Aug. 25.— Striking machin

to-day, despite the temporary injunction
issued by Judge Kohlsaat. It Is rumored
that five imported machinists who ven
tured outside the plant were waylaid and
severely' beaten by the friends of the
strikers. Former Governor J. P. Altgeld

• "No conscientious agent of a transpor
tation company would, under the present
laws, hold out to homeseekers any In
ducements, for it Is only possible for an
Alaskan settler at present to take up
land under what -is known as "squatters*
rights," and consequently his title would
be insecure. With general land laws ap
plied directly to Alaska, more land offices
established, and base lines surveyed at
the expense of the Government, home

Two years ago Honnewashe and an In

testified In the Federal Court here that
Smut had sold liquor to the Indians. It
being his first conviction he escaped with
a light sentence. Later he threatened to
kill both Honnewashe and Ike. Not long
after the latter was murdered at Puyal

evidence was obtainable. It Is believed
he has also killed Honnewashe out of
revenge.
A posse of the murdered man's friends
has gone Into the mountains to which
Smut escaped. They have taken pro
visions for an extended stay and declare
that Smut will be hunted down and
either hanged or tortured to death to
answer for his many misdeeds. The of

to persuade them to turn Smut over to
the law if they get him.

Ing Well in the Eace.
Clark some months ago put himself on
record as an aspirant for renomlnatlon at
the hands of the regular Republican con
vention, and declared that he would not
become an Independent candidate. But,
while be has' declined to discuss the ques
tion of late, his supporters declare there
Is no doubt that he will become an inde
pendent candidate should he find it useless
to put up a fight to elect a majority of
his delegates at. the primary. The action
of the Central Committee In having two
blanket tickets, one In each Assembly
District, Is regarded as a shrewd forestall
ing of Clark, since the latter could un
doubtedly make a hard fight if the elec
tion were conducted In nine clearly de
fined wards.
That he has tron the enmity of Colonel
J. B. Wright and the other Republican
powers is no longer a matter of doubt.
The Republican Central Committee has.
In accordance with the evident Intention
to Ehut Clark out from renominatlon, de
cided to apportion Its delegates to the
convention by the two Assembly Dis
tricts embraced by the city, instead of by
the nine ward boundaries. It is no secret
that this apportionment is made for no
other purpose than to render more diffi
cult of success possible opposition at the
primary, by the Clark coherts, which, of
course, include the present administration
in all its departments.

avowed candidate, and he seems to have
the favor of the ruling powers. It Is.de
clared to be certain that should the regu
lar ticket win at the primaries Clark's
name will not go before the convention at
all.
Clark disclosed his first sign of. weak

upon the newspapers, are treasured
among local literary achievements. He
is a man of independent fortune, has the
reputation of being strictly honest, and
even those who rail at his radicalism are
free to admit his popularity with the
masses.
Ex-Senator Frederick Cox. who has for
some years served with • distinction upon
the State Board of Agriculture, has been
mentioned as splendid material, but it is
thought that the Democrats will not be
able to induce him to accept the nomina

Position of Colonel Wright.
It is rather an interesting fact that
while Colonel J. B. Wright has been
deposed as the Southern Pacific division
superintendent the belief is general in this
city that he is still rendering the company
service In a political way and that, with
the retirement of President Hays, it will
be only a matter of time when he will be
reclothed-in the fullness of his former
authority. The famous oil land suit which
Mayor Clark brought against him has not
been decided yet. but the rupture which
it occasioned has not been . patched up
and Mayor Clark Is feeling the conse
quences of his going into court.
As to the Mayor's 'chance's iri the event
of his running Independent, his friends
declare that they- are better than those of
any candidate whose name has been put

the coming Mayoralty election promises
to be the liveliest- ever witnessed here.

GENERAL ROBERT WILLIAMS

NEW YORK. Aug. 25.-General Robert

Netherwocd, near Plainneld, N. J., from
apoplexy. He was 75 years of age.

Adjutant General of the Army and re
tired a year later. •
He married the widow of the lata
Stephen A. Douglas. He leaves three sons

LONDON. Aug. 26.— "Li Hung Chang
has notified the Ministers of the powers."
says a dispatch to the Times from Peking
dated yesterday, "that edicts necessary to
the signing of the protocol by the Chi
nese plenipotentiaries are now en route
from Sian-Fu and are expected to arrive
here Wednesday."
It has been reported that the conferees
disapproved the move in abrogating the
Federal Steel Company contracts and told
President Shaffer so with unmistakable
emphasis. .Of this, however. . Secretary
John Williams said to-day that during the
conference he had heard no adverse criti
cism by the Civic Federation conferees
on the attitude of President Shaffer in
this matter of contracts. ; .
The action of President Shaffer in abro
gating the wage contracts with the Fed
eral Steel Company, covering Its Western
mills and in other instances, was ques
tioned. Messrs; Mitchell, White and Jenks
spoke of the importance of strict observ
ance of wage agreements as contracts by
the labor unions. President Shaffer, main
tained his position, to the satisfaction of
most of the conferees.
Shaffer's Action Questioned.
In furtherance of- the "peace", pro
gramme, which is said .to have been in
the course of preparation for several
days, It was given out to-day by one. on
the Inside and one who should know, that
the Amalgamated executives have con
sented to have certain propositions made
to the officials of the United States Steel
Corporation through members of the con
ciliatory committee of the National Civic
Federation, which proposals are expected
to bring about a settlement of the great
strike. Those Interested in the matter
were in waiting all day for word to pro
ceed with the programme as outlined at
the conference of Amalgamated -execu
tives and the conciliatory committee of
the Civic Federation last Friday.
The propositions which are to be taken
to New York carry certain conditions by
the Amalgamated Association which it is
hoped will pave the way for the reopening
of direct negotiations between the asso
ciation and the company. The proposition
carries . much of the terms under which
President Shaffer and his advisers stand
willing to settle. !
What these terms are and the mode of
their presentation are carefully guarded
secrets. There ' is alone the Implication
that they contain concessions of such im
portance that those in interest expect the
corporation to drop its adverse attitude
and reopen negotiations.
The proposal contains nothing: looking
to arbitration. This mode of settlement
was waived on the. ad vice of the Civic
Federation men.
While the conferees were discussing"
plans the Amalgamated men were shown
the impracticability of sympathetic
strikes by the miners and other organized
men affiliated with the American Federa
tion of Labor.
Further Peace Proposals.
Everything at McKeesport is reported
quiet. Pickets are around the Demmler
tin plate mill in large- numbers, but they
are orderly and are determined to be on
hand all night, as they believed an at
tempt would be made to start the plant
in the morning. While the fires are light
ed-and the mill apparently * in' readiness
for~a-start, the officials will not say just
when the attempt will be made.'
" When the strikers were told of the
claims of- the ¦officials of the' Star, mills
they denied that there were as many
skilled men at work as was claimed, and
said those who were In the plant were
sent there from the Monessen plant,
which was being crippled in order to ac
complish this work. Strenuous denials
were also made regarding alleged deser
tions from the Amalgamated ranks to fill
the positions offered •fey the corporation,
and it was said that it would.be impossi
ble to' obtain men enough to operate * the
. plant without settllpg ,the strike. .^ , ¦-.' —
' Therd was no change j In the 61 tuatlon
regarding the tube mills to-day. Former
employes remained away from the plants.
It Is understood that the officials of the
National Tube Company . have practically
determined not to start these plants for
the present.
Outside of the Star plant to-day a large
number of strikers were on picket duty,
They were quiet and orderly but had theii
eyes and ears open for any signs of new
comers, p The peculiar ' feature - of th«
strike about the Star plant is the goo<3
feeling displayed between the strikers and
the manager of the plant.
this morning. J..R. Phlllpps of the com
pany accompanied them to the mill, and
It was not until after they, were In and
comfortably .settled for the night that
the strikers discovered their presence.
Those men are of the best In the trade
and will enable us to move -the plant on
a better basis than before."
"We received eight skilled men earl
With the completion of these improve
ments the company will be prepared to
place a sufficient number of men in the"
plant to work the four double mills, three
full turns. This is said to be expected to
take place during the present week. Be
fore SaturdaV, according to Superintend
ent Piper of the Star mills, the plant will
be operated to its full extent. Referring
to the present .condition of the mills Mr.
Piper said:
Skilled Workmen Smuggled In.
The mo3t interesting situation Is in the
Star, mill of the American Tinplate Com
pany here. This plant was until this sum
mer considered as doomed. The Tin Plate
Company had, it is said, decided to aban
don the mill and move the machinery
elsewhere. Since; the strike has come
upon them, and it was demonstrated that
the operation of the mill with non-union
men was possible under the protection of
a well equipped police force, the officials
decided to keep this mill going, make ex
tensive improvements . in -Its equipment
and make it a permanent fixture of the
company. The most significant feature of
this plan has been carried out during the
past week. This consists of fitting the
mill In the same manner as that of the
Monessen,- Pa., plant. The former eight
mills have been changed to four double
mills. Other improvements have been
added that will give the plant a larger
capacity, increase its force of men and
make it one of the most modern of all
the tin plants of the country. <
PITTSBURG, Aug. 25.— Some remark
able changes in the condition of the strike
ridden mills of the United States Ste»el
Corporation are promised for the present
week that will alter the aspect of affairs
considerably if carried out. It was said
on good authority to-day that before the
end of the. week those plants that have
been operating on single turn would be
run will full force and for the usual three
full turns each day. . Men enough have
been engaged for this purpose, the offi
cials say, in spite of the claims of the
strikers that the companies could not get
enough men to operate their , plants, and
the managers .of the -various mills say
they will be ready with air the skilled men
required to start up the machinery and

. CHICAGO, Aug. 23. — The only visible
result of the mass meeting of * trades
unionists and sympathizers held in South
Chicago to-day was the declaration of one
skilled worker, that he would not again
enter the mill until the strike was settled.
The steel workers, whom the meeting was
designed- to report, were not present in
appreciable- numbers.
Assistant Scretary Tighe of the Amal
gamated Association was the principal
speaker and denounced former members
of the association in South Chicago, "for
deserting their union under the guise of
living up to a contract." . , •
Tighe contends that the contract of the
steel workers has been rendered nugatory
by the encroachments of the steel trust,
and that it was the duty of the Chicago
steel workers to join their fellow unionists
in the East, in a battle where, he said,
the very existence of the Amalgamated
Association was at stake.-

DOVER, Ens., Aug. 25.— Mr. Hol

sary of Captain Webb's swim
from Dover to . Calais, started
from Cape Gris-Nez (between
Boulogne-Sur-Mer and Calais) in an at
tempt to swim to Dover, narrowly es
caped drowning. He covered the course
to a point within six miles of Dover and
then collapsed after having been in the
water twelve hours and forty-six min
utes. ¦ ¦ ¦ . '¦
The tug which accompanied him took
him from the water and brought him. to
Dover this morning. He was carried to
a hotel in a semi-conscious, precarious
state, and subsequently, on the advice of
his medical attendants, was removed to
a- hospital, where he lay for some time in
a serious condition. It was found that h*s
eyesight had been badly affected by the

His exploit was very remarkable, con
sidering the roughness of the sea, and

impossible to take solid food and sub

hot milk from a feeding bottle. He swam
with a powerful stroke, alternately on
his -back and on his breast, making a
good pace. The first six miles from Cape

recovered and announced his intention to
renew the attempt.
After 11 o'clock he was once lost for
five minutes, a big wave having swept
over him. He kept going steadily, but
during the tenth and eleventh hours a
westerly tide drifted him much out of his
course and It was evident that the heavy
seas were having a bad effect.
During the twelfth hour his stroka
weakened considerably, and he seemed
unable to grasp the directions given him.
Twice he turned completely around.
At 4:20 a. m. it was decided to take him
out of the -water. He was turning like a

clothing— the store has been well crowded right along. But, why shouldn't i ?
When we deliberately reduce good, up-to-date clothing and guarantee it with ;
a money-back proposition the public is quick to take advantage of such values. :
Since the sales have been so extensive and the stock has been materially
reduced the sale will end nex 1 Sa'urday night at n o'clock. Until then you can
