TJie allied trades have gone out on a sym
pathetic strike involving all the trades of
the packing house Industry in St. Louis.
I the last walkout all the drivers and
tSM boiler house '.men to the number of
forty stopped work at -ther planf of the
St. Louis Drowsed Beef company. The
strikers claim that the meat cutters en
gaged In the various city markets have laid
down their cleavers and that the owners
or their-grocery assistants are forced to
wait on .customers.. The drivers of all t a
branch houses ,ojt',Chlcago packers In the
city, numbering several hundred, are also
opt.
President Donnelly, of the Amalgamated
Meat Cutters and Butcher workmen, who
has retjlrn,ed to Kansas City, addressed
a meeting of the strikers at Walhalla hall.
He urged the rhen to stand firm and de
clared they would win the "strike, advis

KANSAS CITY, Aug. S.Piesldent Mich
ael Donnelly, who arrived in the city at
mtdnlghjt, 'addressed the striking packing
house employes at Shawneo park In Kan
ads City,1- Kane.,' today. Previous to the
mass netlng. which was attended by sev
erer thousand - persons, the strike leader
was nayf at the state, line by over 2,00
union men of different crafts, who paraded
to the park. President Donnelly reiterated
the statment that the' Strikers would win
In the enrtt . He" expressed satisfaction with
th situation ris he had found It in other
cities and,sal( it was a case of tie-up
everywhere.' "And we propose to have it
remain a tie-up," he said.
The morning was spent In conferring with
local labor leaders. ,
Mr. Donnelly said to a reporter":
"I have visited Sloux City, South Omaha,
St. Joseph and East St.' Louis. In Chicago
we have the packers tied up tightly. In
some other places there have been a few
deserters from our ranks, mostly negroes,
who were never really union men at heart.
In some, of the plants killing Is going on
under' the care of branch house managers
who have grown up In the' business. But
the packers, we Jinow, cannot begin to
take the cattle that are offered here. There
was a heavy run of cattle In Chicago

"Is there uiy hope for a settlement?"
was asked.
"Not from me. It is up to the confer
ence committee now. That committee in
cludes representatives of all the allied
trades Involved or likely to be Involved
In the strike. I wish I could settle it with
honor today."
There was little If any change In the
situation here today. '
There were few additions to the forces
at the various packing houses from the
ranks of the strikers today. The pres- !
ence of President Donnelly In the city
caused the strikers who might be weak
ening to remain out. All of the plants re
pert that the number of animals killed was
about' the same as for several days past.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo., Aug. H.-More union

NO CONFERENCE FOR PEACE
Packers Deny They Are Flanning on
Reopening Negotiations,
STRIKERS LIKEWISE STANDING FIRM
Despite Their Claims, Pifkeri Assert
I'bIob Men from Other Places
Are Golnar to Work
Here.
"No conference looking toward a settle
ment of the strike is contemplated by the
packers.
This statement was made by South
Omaha packers In denial of ptjrslstent
rumors that a conference was to be held
In Chicago this weok for the purpose of
Coming to some agreement with the Amal
gamated association The packers declare
the conference stage has been passed.
Two consignments of laborers, about half
colored, arrived at the CuUaliy plant ye-
tirday. These men came In by rail and
were not disturbed by the strikers. A few
men drifted In at the other plants und, as
has been the case since the strike started.
some men, tired of work, walked out.
The packers do not claim to be gettitig
any skilled laborers from the unions in
South Omaha, and the statement made at
labor headquarters retarding desertions
bvars this out. . However, the packers do
a?ert that butchers from other points are
coming in here, a few at a time, and are
being put to work.
On Q street west of the viaduct deputy
sheriffs and special police are thicker than
strikers.' The strikers seem to be keeping
off the streets and away from the vicinity
of the packing plants.
More Strikebreakers.
Two consignments of strike breakers ar
rived at the yards at South Omaha about
4:30 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. Forty
of these men went to the Cudahy plant
and a-doien to bwlft's. No demonstration
of any kind was made by the strikers when
the new comers were being taken Into the
plants. The best of order continues to pre
vail and the deputy sheriffs have little to
do except at such times as strike breakers
are to be escorted to the gates of the
packing plants.' Cattle, hogs and sheep
were slaughtered at Swift's, Armour's and
Cuduhy's. These three packers killed be
tween 800 and 35 cattle each during the
day.
On account of the numerous rumors
heard on the streets regarding the condi
tions now prevailing In the packing houses
the managers assert that they are willing
to show business men through the plants
at any time during working hours. The
government reports also show the exact
amount of slaughtering done at the plants
each day. .
Cudahy, Armour and Swift claim to have
about TOO men inside the walls of their
plants now, the majority, of course, being
unskilled labor. Mr. Howe of Armour's
said last evening that hl. forces are get
ting along as well as could be expected.
The other packers make the same declara
tion. On the market here yesterday the
packers purchased only about half of the
receipts. Buyers declared that some of the
cattle sent In were fit only for canners and
as the canning factories are not In opera
tion Just now only the best grade of cattle
are purchased. It Is the same with hogs,
the buyers selecting the best and leaving
the big !:eavy common packing hogs. Sheep
suitable for the present Cemands go quite
rnpldly, but buyers Insist on sorting the
flocks down pretty close. '
Strikers Are Firm,
; The strikers are still standing solidly to
gether and at headquarters the. (P9rmr
tlon Is given out that no desertions have
been reported. Some of the strikers have
gone to the harvest fields to work, pending
a settlement of the strike, but these men
are looked for back as Boon as the men go
back to work.
In police circles it was the same dreary
grind. Every one, Including the strikers,
tried to take things as easily as possible.
Sheriff Power was about as usual and both
Chief Briggs and Captain Shields kept busy
driving from place to place where men are
stationed. There was so little Interest taken
In the arrival of trains carrying strike
breakers that as a general thing the deputy
sheriffs and the police outnumbered the
strikers about two to one.
Live stock commission dealers Just re
turned from the. range country report that
plenty of grass cattle In fine condition are
ready to be shipped to this market Just as
soon as the strike Is settled.
"When the run of range stock com
mences," said a commission man last night,
"there will be plenty to do at the stock
yards and the chances are that the de
crease in cattle and hog receipts now
shown will be made up In a short time." '
Live Stock Receipts.
Live Block receipts at the yards yesterday
morning were: Cattle, 2,091 head; hogs,
4,382, and sheep 1.004 head. All of the pack
ers were on the market during the fore
noon, but only choice stuff for immediate
slaughter was purchased.
Sheriff Power waa on duty at his tem
porary headquarters during the forenoon,
but there was little, If anything, for his re
serve force to do. The strikers are keeping
the very best of order and no disturb
ances were reported.
One of the recently Imported negro la
borers at Swift's had his curiosity aroused
by a little red box on the wall of one of
the buildings and he tried to And out what
was In the. box. The result was the turn
ing In of a general fire alarm at 6:45 a. m.
This particular colored man will not med
dle with fire alarm boxes at Swift's any
more. He Is open to engagements.
E. A. Cudahy is still confined to his home
on sccount of a slight. Illness. He expects
to be able to get down' to. the plant Thursday.

Frarfnl Chastisement.
HUMBOLDT, Neb.; Aug. 3. (9i"lal.)
A case of cruelty has Just come" to light
in this section. The'1 facts were brought
out by the arrest last evening of Mrs. Ida
Pool, wife of Joseph Pool, a farmer living
three miles south of Dawson and about
ten miles from this city, on a charge of
assault with Intent to commit murder. Ths
victim in the case is Willie Warren, a
half brother of 'the accused, n lad of 8
years, and the circumstances are most re
voking, according to the story told by the
lad and others. It seems the lad, whose
home was In Dawson, -was stopping tem
porarily at the home of the Pools and In
some manner Incurred the displeasure if
the woman, who proceeded to belabor him
with a broom stick. '.Whipping him about
the back and shoulders failed to have the
desired effect and she began about the
head, bruising him up In frightful shape.
and almost fracturing the skull. The wo
man became frightened at the results of
her' work and attempted to administer to
the needs of the lu'a, but kept him close
Iy hidden from Ju!y 19, the day the af
fair occurred, until about ten days later,
when his condition- became so bad they
were compelled to call In a physician from
Dawson, who upon examination, became
suspicious that their story of the lad's
falling out of the garret and hurting him
self was not a true version of the case
Ho therefore asked, all members of tho
family to leave the room and then asked
the lad tf tell him- the exact facts in the
case, which he did substantially as above.
Tl.j victim, however.; pleaded with the
doctor ( to say . nothing hbout It for the
reason that he hod been promised a ;iew
suit of clothes if kc would refuse to tell
how it camo about, und he added that
he needed the clothes. Tli doctor at once
called In a brother physician in consul
tation and as the lad -had lap.ed into a
comatose Condition,', with but Might chance
for recovery, they luld the case before the
authorities, who caused a warrant to be
issued charging th wornan with murder,
and set a we.tch .upon her movements
wht!e the outcome Iwag In doubt. Only
yesterday It was discovered that she was
making preparations to. leave, and the com
plaint was changed to assault with In
tent to kill, and One warrant served at
oncfe by Constable-'-Page, who took the
accused to Falls Glty and placed her in
Jail, where She, will, remain until It Is
found whether or nut-the. wounds of the

r.EXINQTON Nefe'.; Aug .r(Special.
An attempt that waa all but successful
to( escape from' the' Dawson county Jail
was made last night.' Three prisoners are
confined therein, on, William Welch, who
was sentenced to three years In the oenl
tentlary for horse (jteallng; a young man
named Emerson, sentenced to the State
Reform school for "grand larceny, and a
feeble-minded man 'awaiting trial for as

their cells, but the padlock that prevents
tne sliding of the bolt had not been placed
on the bolt. Emerson, whose cell la near
est the corridor, had a piece of scran Iron
the men had wrenched from a cot. To
this he attached a loop made of a piece
or nis oianxet and managed to get the
loop over the lever that unlocks the cells.
He gave a violent pull and every cell door
openea. The men then came out In the
corridor and with' the scrap Iron dug a
hole In the stone partition wall that opens
In the Jailer's office. Emerson crawled
tnrougn this hole, got tho keys to the mi

school house ground at Fort Calhoun yes
terday afternoon to witness nnd partici
pate In the ceremonies Incident to the
centennial celebration of the first council
between Lewis and Clark and the Indians
of the Missouri valley.
The town of Fort Calhoun was resplen
dent In bunting and the shaded grounds,
with their mugnlticent grove of locust
trees, was festooned with flags and bunt
lug, while the platform located at the
west side of the grove was handsomely
I'Stooned with flugs. St-ats had been
provided for a limited number, but a great
majority of the spectators had to stand
during the ceremonies.
The main body of visitors, including Gov
ernor Mickey, Senator Millard, W. F. Cur
ley, the orator of the day, and others ar
rived on the afternoon train, and rlie dis
tinguished guests were met at the depot
by the committee of reception, headed by
Mayor John Hendrlxon of Fort Calhoun. A
battalion of the Thirtieth United States
Infantry, under command of Major Cecil,
had arrived earlier In the day and with
the Thirtieth Infantry band was waiting
In line for the distinguished isltors und
received them with presented arms. Gov
ernor Mickey and party. Including Senator
Millard, ex-Governor Boyd, Adutnut Gen
eral J. A. Culver, E. Rosewater, W. F.
Gurley and Judge Sears, were escorted to
the platform, by the battalion of regular
troops and band, where they were received
by the committee of arrangements, Mrs.
Abraham Allee, regent of the Nobraska
Daughters of the American Revolution;
John Wilson Battln, president of the Ne
braska Sons of the American Revolution;
John H. Daniels, Amos Field, Mrs. Alex
Troup of Omaha, Elmer E. Blackman and

a historical representation of the Council
of 1804, In costume, by the Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben,
under an Improvised, tent to Imi
tate the sail tent under which the original
treaty wus held. This interesting cere
mony was carried out on the school
campus, the troops forming a square around
the council to keep the crowd from tres
passing. This ceremony being finished,
more music followed by the band and the
Invocation was delivered by Rev. T. J.

Loblngler, state secretary of the Daughters
of the American Revolution, read an Inter
cstlng letter of regret f rorr Eva Emery
Dye of Oregon, author of "The Conquest,"
a story of the Lewis and Clark exposi
tion. Mrs. Allee, president of the meeting,
stated that It was with sincere regret
that she had to announce that the expected
representative of the Clark family could
not be present, and Mr. Edward Rosewater
was Introduced. He said:
"Although not a descendant of the men
who founded. the republic, . nor even a.plo
noer ofifWty years, ago, I luive allowed my
self to be conscripted, though not on the.
program. However, this Is a great event In
Nebraska history, and occurring here on,
these, beautiful school house grounds and
In the shadow of yon school building, Is of
itself the best commentary upon the result
of the treaty of 100 years ago. And what
has been accomplished In those 100 years I
I only want to call attention to a few
things that Nebraska has done since the
passage of the Nebraska and Kansas bill
nnd the proud part It has taken In the per
petuation of the greatest republlo the
world ever saw. Lewis and Clark held
their treaty with wild men on this ground
a century ago, and I was Infinitely sur
prised since coming here today to . learn
that there Is now a man on these grounds
that was born here, near this spot, In the
year 1S27. I take pride In congratulating
the committee for conceiving this celebra
tion. So Important a part has Nebraska
taken In the earlier events of the history
of the west that Its citizens shall take
pride in celebrating other centennarles of
these events In future. The story of the
achievements of Lewis and Clark will be
told you by more eloquent tongues than
mine."
OoTcrnor Mickey's Address.
Governor Mickey was Introduced and
spoke briefly of his pleasure in being pres
ent, and of the great achievements of the
past 100 years and the hand that God had
in these events.
More history has been made in the past
fifty years than in the 200 years previous."
he said. "We- dopend upon God, and He
depends upon you and I that we shall con
tinue to make this nation greater, and may
you and I prove worthy of the great citi
zenship He has given us. Let us hope In
future years to profit by this occasion and
continue In our onward progress as God In
tended, onward and upward."
J. A. Barrett followed with an Interesting
address upon "The Meaning of the Council
of 1804." His talk was of an historical
character. Mr. Barrett Is ourator of the
Nebraska State Historical society. He said
In part: "We are here to celebrate a een
tennary anniversary of a great treaty. Tet
at the same time there were trading posts
scattered' along this historic river that
might celebrate their JOOth anniversary.
Coronndo visited this section ItiO years ago,
even before the Pilgrim fathers landed on
Plymouth Rock.- One hundred and fifteen
years before the passage of the Nebraska
and Kansas bill two Frenchmen passed
thl. place to follow the river to Its source."
He spoke of the Lewis and Clark treaty
with the Otoes and Missouri, and of the
brave and manly characteristics of those
tribes; of the events leading op to the
Louisiana purchase by President Jefferson,
and the magnificent empire of civilisation
that has followed that treaty of August.
1904.
Address fcy W. K. Garley.
W. y. Gurley was Introduced by Presi
dent Battln as the principal orator of the
day. Mr. Gurley complimented the com
mittees under whose auspices this cele
bration was brought about. He said:
"It Is unique and worthy of the time and
labor bestowed. It is an event recording
sacrifice ard struggle and luminous with
great deeds heroically performed. It Im
bued the present with the saving grace
of a moral force, a national destiny. It
marks an epoch m the march of civilisa
tion, not with sculptured marble or bronxe,
but by a simple stone of nature's archi

ths earth and placed here as a landmark
of history. Tills random meeting In the
wflldfrness was not partlclarly notabla
for a celebration, but It la the broad view
of the resultant civilisation that brings
us here. Our Interest in this event goes
back to 1712, when Jefferson first con

Rain' Makes Cora Crop.
ARAPAHOE, Neb., Aug. (.(Special Tele
gram.) A rain, which did unestlmable good
to corn, millet, cane, etc., came In ths nick
of time to save these crops this evening.
It was a general rain all over thl$ aection
and assures a good yield for all early corn,
promising the best crop ever raised In the
southwestern Nebraska and without any
more rain exceeds the yield of 1891-2 and
the acreage is fully , four times as great.
The dry weather of last fall and this spring
was destructive to all fall grain and nine
tenths was plowed up and replanted to
corn, .so our .crop In .general was corn or
nothing, but this rain saves corn and as
sures on abundant crop If we do not have
another drop of rain. .

Sin I have nearly finished the former bottle

well. . My case was one w hich most physi
cians would have pronounced incurable, aa I
was afflicted with a dysentery and compelled
to go to the toilet room from three to five
times each day and each time would bleed
from one-half to one teacupfuL I had to
resort to bandages and absorbent cotton to
check the flow of blood, and now the past
ten or twelve day there ha been no sign of
bleeding and . my appetite 1 good; have
gained ten pounds in weight and feel like a
