whole matter would have been handled at
Omaha or lomt other point along the line
had not Harrlman been taken 111 and thus
forced to come east. As It Is, there was
nothing else except for President Burt and
representatives of the strikers to come on
east and settle the trouble as best they
could, without troubling Mr. Harrlman.
who was a very sick man.
From the market thla afternoon It was
Indicated that Wall street believed In the
settlement Implicitly, though there was a
slight heaviness from sympathy with the
declining securities of allied roads, out
Union PacWo rallied over a point at the
close on the assurance of Union Pacino
brokers that the strike waa amicably set
tled. When seen late today two representatives
on the committee of the bollermakers and
shopman refused to discuss the matter at
all, saying th nnal negotiations were not
all completed, but from their manner !t
was easy to see they apparently considered
that a favorable settlement, If not already
reached, soon would be. They would not
say when they expected to return to the
west.
Dow, Jones Co.' last "yellow slips"
from tomorrow Wall Street Journal says:
Union Pacino gained 1 per cent on talk
of a deHnlte settlement of the strike of
the boiler maker and shopmen within the
next two or three days, and Southern Pa
cino gained on the news of E. II. Harrl
man'i recovery.
Bo far as Mr. Harrlman' condition Is
concerned, th latest authentio bulletin
gives thlsi
"Mr. E. H, Harrlman, who ha been 111
with a slight attack of appendicitis, Is to
day reported to be out of bed and stirring
around his home at No. 1 East Fifty-first
street. It the weather proves favorable to
morrow it Is expected that Mr. Harrlman
will be allowed to go out for a drive."
So It can be seen the probable amicable
settlement of the strike, as reported from
authentio sources. Is fully believed by the
investors Interested here.

It waa decided after a consultation of
physicians and surgeon tonight to oper

Trustworthy evidence confirms the report

They number at least 2,000 and carry a

The Time correspondent aver China is

presented by M. Planchon, the Russian
charge d'affaires, which It pretended to

(1) Not to alienate any portion of Man

(2) Not to alter the present administra
tion In Mongolia.
(3) Not to open any new treaty ports In
Mancnuna,
(4) Not to employ foreigners in the ad'
ministration ot Manchuria.
Whether China gives it consent or not,
Russia also retains the telegraph line be

also agreed that Russia shall have - full
control of the customs at New Chwang and
there is little doubt that an agreement ex-

ROSEBERY SHY ON TARIFF
Seeana to Dislike Chamberlain' Sug
gestion, but -Trent M
Judicially. "' ' ',.
LONDON, May. 19 In a speech at Burn
lelgh tonight. Lord Rosebery, referring to
Mr. Chamberlain's appeal lor trade reci
procity within the British empire said that
before tariffs were changed the colonies
ought to be represented In the government
of the country and he did not think h's
wa Impracticable. He did not regard free
trade a a part of the "summons for res
tralnt" but the question arose whether
It would be wise, without long and deep
consideration, to change the fiscal system
under which Great, Britain had achieved
its commercial success.
"We must consider," continued Lord
Rosebery, "whether It would be Judicious
to quarrel with customer who give ua
two-third and possibly three-quarters of
our trade In order to oblige customers who
give us a quarter of It or only a third of
It. A conference between British' and
colonial nnancial experts should precede
any alteration In the British fiscal sy.
tern."
Lord Rosebery dealt with Mr. 'Chamber
lain's scheme In a Judicial manner, being,
careful neither to approve nor condemn
It, but on the whole showing that he had
no great sympathy with It.

DELAYS SADDLE CREEK SEWEP
Mayor Wants the Agreement with th
Belt Line Railroad Com
panr Revised.
The beginning of. actual construction on
the Saddle Creek sewer again has been
delayed by the decision of Mayor Moore
to veto the agreement with the Belt Line
railway regarding the construction of the
two viaducts which consummation of the
combination of roadway and sewer will
necessitate. This agreement had been In
sisted upon by the railroad before the of
ficers acquiesced in the appraisement of
property recently condemned.
Generally the mayor regards the stipula
tions as fair. They are that when the
roudway is built. If ever, the city will
mnke the excavation through the high
embankments and construct the retaining
walls nnd aimtments' for the trestle work,
The wording or the pact, however, does
not suit the mayor, who declares It favors
the railroad at the expense of the city.
One point Is that the city work must be
done under the direction of the chief en
gineer of the railroad. Consequently his
honor will send back the agreement to the
council to have It remodeled. Meanwhile
the sewer waits.

below .that required, but Its torpedo was
fired as correctly a that of Plunger. .
