WASHINGTON. Sept. 11 The command
ers of Cincinnati and Wisconsin w II
be instructed to enforce our treaty s'.lpula
tlon with Colombia itrlctly by preventing
any Interference with traffic across th. la
thmui, and also to prevent a bimtardment
of Panama from thj aea on the ground thit
thla. In tself. would constitute a menace
to traffic.
Neither Wisconsin nor Cincinnati carri
very large marine contingents, but any
lack In thla reaped, It la aaid, can be tmde
Hp by equipping Jackles for shore du y
should It become necessary to land a force
on Colombian aoll to enforce the guarantee
of the treaty or to protect American In
terest!. The audden turn of events near Panama
cam as a surprise to the officials of th
Stat and Navy departments. Affairs In
that quarter had quieted to such a dearie
that only the little gunboat Ranger kept
watch. Marietta was keeping a close eye
on the trend of affairs In Venezuela, and
Cincinnati was performing similar duty lu
Hayti. The emergency arose so suddenly,
therefore, that Haytl must be left un
watched by an American war vessel during
the Interval between the departure cf Cin
cinnati for Colon and the arrival of Mont
gomery In Haytlen waters.
Paaaaaa C'eater of Trouble.
It la thought that the center of trouble
la likely to be at or near Panama Cl'y
and it la for that reason and because of the
small size and complement of Ranger thit
the big Wisconsin has been despatched to
the scene.
Later in the day the officials of the Navy
department . decided to take no chancea of
an Insufficient landing force In case of an
emergency on tha isthmus, and orders were
sent forward to the United States Steamship
Panther, wh'ch Is now enroute to League
Island, to take aboard a battalion of marines
upon ner arrival and. proceed to Colon. Or
ders were issued for the organlzatlcn cf
the marines, mho will number 380 men and
will be commanded by Lieutenant Colonel B.
Russell, with Major Barnett as second In
command. Captains Porter, Butler and
Marlx w'll command three of the fcur com
panies and Captain Lemly will act as quar
termaster. It will bo the duty of the ma
rines to keep transit across the Isthmus
clear. The marines performed a similar
service In 1885.
f It Is understood that, notwithstanding
Vhe absence of a Haytlan navy on either
aide of the revolutionary struggle, there la
danger that some of the ports where
American property Interests are large may
suffer because of the practice which has
Crstrs cb la th ec-tir's of tts reU!Tt ff
burning towns before evacuating them.
Therefore, It has been decided to send thn
gunboat Montgomery to replace Cincinnati
at Port An. Prince. Montgomery has Just
finished participation In the maneuvers and
la being overhauled at the New York navy
yard. Allowing a couple of days In which
to coal and lit out, It could probably reach
Port Au Prince by Beit Thursday.

ARGUMENT IN .STEEL CASE
Lawyers oa Both Sides Preseat Their

NEWARK, N. J.. Bpt. 1-Frank Bergen
of.counsel for 3. Asplnwall Hodge and other
stockholders of tha .United States Steel cor

restrain the retirement of 1200.000,000 , of
the company's preferred stock and ths Issue
ct 1 2 50,1 1.0 ,000 bonds, resumed hie argument
in favor of an Injunction before Vice Chan
c llnr Emery today.
Mr Bergen declared that the valuation of
the steel corporation's preperties was ex
cetslve and that not singe affidavit had
b -en nroduced to show In detail that the '
a uation was not Inflated. He claimed
that the affidavit of James H. Lancaster aa . Francisco, and Samuel Maher of Cleveland
to details had not teen contradicted, aJ- gre tB, ggnarj ef t statement Issued today
i hough an affidavit In answer had been filed ,.,ng for funQB for the work of the Epls

Richard V. Undabury followed for the!,..tnat American Christianity should be In
dcfeidant corporation. In beginning his ' B position to carry on such work among the
armmmt, he sail that :be defendants natives as will convince them of the
wouid not take up the fundamental ques- .
tlon as to ths power of the United States ,
Stc 1 corporation to retire 'the preferred I
st -ck In the manner proposed. The appeal :
n the Bergen case, now under advisement .
la the ccurt of errors, and other appeals
covered the points arising under that In- i
qulry. It was to be assumed that the court, 1
ir it snnuia aecine me prwpi ai-uun uviurv
a d.cl.lon is reached before the appellate
c.;utt. would follow the previous decision in
vhe Bergen case. ;
The only question to which the defndnte ;
would address themselves on the argument
of the merits would bo as to tho validity
of the synd cate contract with J. P. Morgan
ft Co. That contract, Mr. Llndabury said,
was unavoidable by stockholders.
The complainants, he declared, seemed
to rely upon the personal Interest-of the
directors as a ground for the avoldanca of
contract, respective of the Intrinsic fair
ness of the transaction and despite the fact
that the stockholders, w th full knowledge
of all the details of the plan, Including the
Interest of directors, approved -It by more
than a two-thirds vote of all' the capital
stock, In strict accordance with article II,
section 9, of ths bylaws, which was sub

other evidence, convinces the officials that
he is guilty. It Is alleged that he finally

and hla clerk were In their office, boldly
carrying It out. They did not discover the

FOMENT TROUBLE WITH M0R0S
Filipino Circulate Fnlae Stories and
Some Chiefs Inclined to
Flerht.
WASHINGTON. 8cpt. 11. Manila papers
received at the War department today con
tain reports from Mindanao regarding the
Moro prcblem, showing what tha various
sultans and dattos are doing, together with
correspondence that has passed and conver
sations that have occurred between army
officers commanding In that Island and dif
ferent chiefs.
It appears that the Moro chiefs were In
formed by Filipinos from Luzon that Rus
sia and Spain were at war with the United
S a.es. One of the sultans, when asked
why he would not be on friendly terms with
the United States authorities, said that the
Moros were all under the direction of the
sultan of Stamboul, and they had, been in
foimed that there waa enmity between the
sultan of Stamboul and tho United States
government.
Captain Pershing, in command of the cav
alry, told him that this was entirely a mis
take. Another datto made the claim that the
Moros sways had been In undisturbed pos
session of the Lake Lano country, and that
even tha Rpanlards never had attempted to
Interfere with them, and they did not want
the Americans to do so.
There had been considerable friendly
correspendenca with the sultan of Bacolod,
but finally a very unfriendly letter was re
ceived from him, warlike In tone, which
greatly surprised the American officers.
From another Moro chief tho Americans
were Informed that the ugly letter was a
forgery peipetrated by two of the dattos un
der the sultan of Bacolod. These dattos
were very anxious for war, one of them
claiming that ho could hold his fort against
any force that might Tie sent against It; Thfc
war party was stronger than the peace
party and was tsunttng the Moros who
wanted to bo on peaceful terms with the
Americans by calling them cowards.
The Filipino insurgent, Rufflno, was found
to be in the region making trouble for tha
Americans.
In another communication from the Moro
country It is stated that Colonel Baldwin
tried to get all the sultans and dattos to
meet him In a friendly conference. The
sultan of Bacolod professed friendship, but
asked for three months In which to com
municate with the various tribes over which
he was chiof.' Moros In the camp of Colonel
Baldwin said that thla was simply a ruse to
gain further time and prepare for war.

EQUALIZATION ? ' BOARD - ACTS
Protests oa Hewer Assessments Oc
eeey Most of the Time,
of Seaelna.
After remaining In session for the three
days required by law the city council at
t o'clock yesterday afternoon closed up the
business of its third quarterly meeting of
ths year as the board of equalisation.
The most vigorously urged protest to
come up for consideration wss against the
sewer In district 271, located en Tw.lfth
street and .running north from William
street. The petition In opposition to this
improvement was signed by twelve of the
property .owners affected. E. . J.. Cornish
appeared oa behalf of the petitioners and
stated as the cause of objection that the
property on the west aide of Twelfth street
was so low aa to make the aewer of no
benefit to the property owners there and
the land on the east, side of tha street so
high that tho houses there could not be con
nected with the sewer without expense
greater than the value of the lots. Beside,
and most important of all that there was
no water on the street and no Immed'ate
proapect of water being put In, and as long
aa there waa no water the sewer, would be
of no Service and consequently of no benefit.
It was suggested by Councilman Harcall
that In some respeots the assessment as
made was not entirely equitable and there
fore the plan of assessment was rej-cted
and. referred back, to the engineering de

A protest from John B. Vtau against the
assessment In sewer d strict 274, Elgb eenth
street, from Caatellar to Chicago streets,
on the ground that there was no water on
the street, was overruled and ths plan of
assessment approved.
By reason of ' protest from Joseph
Valeshek the plan of assessment for the
sewer on South Fourteenth street from
Phelps street south was rejected. Mr.
Valesbek's reason for objecting to the as
sessment waa that the sewer only extended
In front of half of the frontage cf one of hla
lots and be felt that the one lot in question
should not be asserted, as the situation wat
such that It could not be connected with the
sewer, and In case the sewer should be at
any time extended the lot would again bi
assessed for the extension to the full rxtent
f Its frontage. This objection was re
garded by the board a reasonable.
The other plans of assessment already
enumerated In tleta.ll In The Bee were all
approved and a report In consonance with
the action wan adopted by the board.

teen prohibits any boy under twelve years
of age or a woman from working In a coal

Daniel' J. McCarthy of Hazleton said the
alliance represented the business people of
the coal districts and that Its purpose was
to secure a settlement of'the strike. There
was no sign of a settlement and the only
hope of bringing about an end to the strike
Is an extra session of the legislature for
the enactment of the leglnlatlon that will
end the present strike and prevent strikes
In the future.

ARBITRATION IS A
Teamsters Strike Is Settled In Chi
eaa-o by Work of State
Board. '
; CH1GA10.-. Slept. ..'.ll-r'Arbltration a
meana of settling labor- troubles proved a
decided success in Chicago today." - One
trlke was settled, one that was threatened
was averted, and two were put in such
shape that it is reasonably certain that tLey
HI be brought to an end tomorrow. Tho
anger of a famine through the strike of
the packing house teamsters and the bakery
and cracker wagon drivers now seems a
thing of the past.
The strike of the packing house teams
ters was effective today so far as fho plck-
ts of the, union, stationed all over tho
city from South Chicago to the north side
were able to discover, and not a pound
of meat was moved by wift and Company
by wagons. The usual consignments by rail
were made and not interfered with..
Through the efforts of Frederick W. Job,
chairman of the state board of arbitration,
rrangements were completed tonlcht for
meeting tomorrow between a committee
representing the teamsters and represen
tatives of Swift and Company. Boti sides
appear anxious. to settle the trouble and it
ia believed little difficulty will be ex
perienced In reaching a satisfactory adjust
ment of the controversy.
Bakery, and cracker drivers and coal and
truck teamsters, who received the sanction
of the teamsters' joint council to strike at
the plant of the William Schmidt Baking
company because some of their drivers had
been transferred to other branches of the
National Biscuit company and their wages
reduced, quit work today. The officials of
the company applied to the union for a
chance to arbitrate the matter and a con
ference between the men and officials of
ths company will be held tomorrow to settle
the trouble.
The strike of the excavating teamsters
came to an end after a lengthy conference
tonight. Nearly every excavating and aand
concern In the city was represented. Under
the agreement reached tha men ars to re
turn to work at the terms demanded $2 a
day for ten hours, with time and a half for
overtime or Sunday work.
