Coliden Club Report.
London, Aug. 2. The annual report
cf the Cobden club is largely directed to
Lord Salisbury's celebrated Hastings
speech. The report laments the
effect Salisbury's language must
havo on European countries

are hanging out signals of distress at
the very momont Salisbury hoisted the
protection flag. The report says it will
also hav a baneful effect on free trade
in the United States.

Visa-Lia, Cal., Aug. 9. Sheriff Kay
and party who went in pursuit of Evans
andSontag, have returned. All had
closed mouths and were instructed to
keep so. Sheriff Hill and four or five
others who left Saturday are still ab
sent. It is believed that the Kay party
lost the trail, but it is surmised they
camobackto secure pack animals and
will leave again without delay prepared
to camp on the trail of the robbers.
They brought back to town the mule
and cart Sontag secured of Wild. Thq
outfit was secured iu the bed of Negro
creek. The Kay party saw nothing of
tho FreBno posse, who are said to be
stationed higher up the mountain with
the expectation of heading off the rob
bers. It is said that Kay and party
overtook Evans and Sontag and were in
less than eight yards of them when one
young man could not resist the tempta
tion of taking a shot at them. This
Bpoiled tho probable capture, asjthe pur
sued, taken by surprise, were" thus
warned to seek a safe hiding place, which
was easily found in tho rugged section
where they are.
THE STRIKE SITUATION.
Striker Oaln a Notable Acquisition to
Their Strength TTedoratlon May De
clare a Boycott.
Pittsburg, Aug. !. The sensation
of tho day at Carnegie's upper mills was
the resignation of Night Superintendent
and Puddler Boss Richard Nichols. He
has been in tho employ of tho firm for
eighteen years aud was one of the most
trusted workmen about the mill. Im
mediately after leaving the works he
went to the Amalgamated headquarters
where he stated that the step he had
taken was due to the fact that
his work had been made extremely
unpleasant since tho strike had been in
augurated. He says h has been shoved
from one station and position to another
until the work has simply become un
bearable. In connection with the work
ings of the mills he said tho fifteen or
twenty men did not start as was re
ported. Tho strikers, he said, gained a
victory by inducing two of tho best
heaters to leave tho mill. In regard to
tho n umber of men who wero working,
ho stated that there were less than at
any time since the strike began. The
acquisition of Nichols has greatly en
couraged the strikers.

New York, Aug. 9. President
Gompers said that it was more than
likely that the American Federation of
Labor, GOO.COO strong, would boycott
the steel made by Andrew Carnegie at
Homestead and other places. This
means that every employer who uses
Cameine steel will be blacklisted and
the union men employed called out and
thus practically paralyze big building
operations all over tlie country, if what
Mr. Gouipers says actually comes to
pass. It will put a stop to railroad
building. a3 the Carnegie works manu
facturo a large part of the steel rails
used in this country. It will also put a
stop in a largo measure to government

Coney Island's Xew Departnre.
New York, Aug. 9. Tho Coney Isl
and Athletic club triod a new kind of
program. Instead of emplovinc one
pair of boxers who were well known and
giving a preliminary bout between local
men, as has been the rule heretofore,
they put on three pairs of fighters, who
wero, all except two men, amateurs up
to a recent date. The bouts as arranged
were as follows:
Bill Plimmar, the clever little English
man, who is the 1 i0-pound champion of
the world, and Jerry Barnott. a Naw
York ex-amatenr, 115 pounds, met for a
$500 purse. Plimmer had .the best of it
up to tho seventh round, when he

over Barnott, being much the fresher
man at the finish.

Chicago, Ills., Aug. 9. The Burling
ton officials have made some material
changes in their proposed amendments
to the Western Freight association
agreement since they were first present
ed. One of their propositions was to
elect for a term of one year five vice
presidents and general managers to con
stitute an executive committee for the
adjudication of differences between
members. This provision has b6en
withdrawn and the following inserted
in its.pjace: At each regular meeting
the Association shall consider
and voto upon all changes in
rates proposed, of which due notice has
been given and all parties shall be bound
by the decision of the association so ex
pressed. In case tho member present
ing the subject cannot abide by the vote
of the association, then tho subject shall
be referred to the chairman of the asso
ciation and he shall request four repre
sentatives of lines in tho association to
act with him in adjudicating the differ
ences. All subjects so referred to the
chairman must be acted upon and in
terested parties notified of the recom
mendations within five days after such
reference.
The recommendations of a majority
of this special committeo shall be bind
ing upon all, unless tho parties present
ing the subject shall give the associa
tion or- chairman definite written notice
that in thirty days thereafter they will
make modifications, notwithstanding
the vote of the association and the rec
ommendation of the special committee.
Such written notico must be filed
with the chairman within five days
after receipt of tho recommendations
of tho special committee. Should
any member insist upon a
reduction in rates against the
views of two-thirds of the members and
of the special committee, and if iu tho
judgment of such two-thirds the rates
60 mado, affect seriously upon other
traffic, then the association may. by a
two-thirds vote, put in effect correspond
ing rates on such traffic trains, to take
effect the same day. By uuanimous
consent any rate, rule or regulation re
lating to freight traffic may be modi
fied at any meeting of the association
with previous notice. The other amend
ments will go before tho meeting as
they were originally drawn up.
Atchison Arbitrators Chosen.
F. C. Donald and Oscar O. Murray,
selected to arbitrate differences between
the Atchison road and Chairman Cald
well, of the Western Passenger associa
tion, have chosen tho third arbitrator,
S. Holding, attorney of tho Big Four
road, of Cleveland. The question to be
decided by these gcrtlemen is whether
under the agreement of the Western
Passenger association arbitrators must
be named in five days from the time
when the appeal is taken, as the chair
holds he is entitled to five days after the
appeal is filed.
Kastbonnd Shipments.
Again the tonnage statement-. shows ;.

89.1S3 tons, against 91,407 for the pre
ceding week, a decreaso of 2,224 tons.

report the matter to his government.
The attorney who made out the proofs

probable that the affair will cost the

Umoktows, Pa., Aug. 9. The
Cooleys put in appearance at Springfield
and attended the Methodist church.
Abeut 8 olclock, while the congregation
were engaged in their usual davotiens,
Frank Cooley and Jack Ramsey rode np
to the church door, hitched their horses
and walked into the church with as
much unconcern as though they were
regular communicants. They did not
carry their rifles with them, but iu the
two largo belts3 they wore they had large
revolvers. The outlaws took their posi
tions on either side of the door and
would permit no one to go out. This
was done to prevent an alarm being
spread. Almost everyone was frightened
out of his wits.
The outlaw partly compensated for
their recent robberies by contributi ng
to the evangelical collection, after
which they left the church and rode
away, to the great relief of the congre
gation. FORtfY-FIVE DROWNED.

respect for the President's Words.
Cheyenne, Wyo., Aug. 9. Dis
patches received from the north are that
copies of the proclamation of the presi

WILL ASK FOR SEVERAL CRUISERS-3
What Will Re Presented to Coagress
frem the Nary Department.
Washin-sto.v. Aug. u. Navy dapart
ment officials aro alrsady considering
the naval program to be presented for
consideration at the next session of con
gress. It is understood that the inten
tion U to ask for several cruiisrs ospa
cially designed for long and
distant cruising, particularly for
service in the PaciSc. To comply
with the needs of that service, where
docking facilities are few and far be
tween., it is proposed to construct a
moderate fleet of cruisers of 2,000 tons
displacement, of fair speed and great
coal carrying capacity." Experience has
not been snch a3 to 'promote faith in
their efficiency in times of war, and it
is deemed sound policy to propare
for the protection of a great com
merce on that ocean by making a
fleet of sheathed steel ship3 for that
