PREFERENTIAL SCHEME NOT PRACTICAL
Conditions Not Soeh to Warrant

tha Alleged Decline of

(Copyright. 1903, by Press Publishing Co.)
LONDON, June 13. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) The mlnis
terlal crista over Joseph Chamberlaln
preferential tariff scheme has lost lta acute
phase and there la a temporary lull. But
Ms action haa shaken the government to
lta foundations, haa unsettled the political
parties, haa caused profound unrest In com
mercial and financial circles, and la pro
ducing a aUte of affairs which can only
be remedied by the decision of the con
atltuenclea. From a parliamentary stand
point Mr. Chamberinln'a position is In
finitely, worse than Gladstone's was when
the latter first promulgated his home rule
policy. With the exception of a few known
proteotlonlsta, not a single man of impor
tance aupports him. Those ministerialists
who have not already declared hostilities
are hesitating. The effect his policy may
have on the relations between Great Brit
ain and the United States Is causing as
much concern aa the risk of exciting frlc
Ion with the colonies. As neither party is
nreoared for a reneral election now, it
will not be taken up, until fall or next
spring.
Meantime the predominant view is that
Mr. Chamberlain haa overreached himself
and that the country will never consent to
give him a free hand to tamper with Its
fiscal poller, on which, rightly or wrongly.
the practically universal conviction Is that
Its prosperity Is founded.
Sir John Qorat M. P.. one of the Eng
lish politicians of much experience, until
recently parliamentary secretary for the
Board of Education, was asked by the
World correspondent for his opinion on the
practicability of preferential treatment for
Canada.
"It Is ridiculous," he answered, "for Mr.
Chamberlain to Imagine It As far as
Canada Is concerned, if Great Britain has
any cards to play against the United
States all the United States would need to
do to checkmate us would be to abolish
the tariffs along the Canadian frontier.
What onjearth could we do to bid against
thatt Is there any necessity to regard the
United States aa an enemy T Not the least
It to' simply perpetrating an Anglo-Saxon
schism at a time when the United States
haa very nearly prepared one in the Mon
roe doctrine. I believe that the Americana
would fight rather than see Great Britain
beaten by a European combination."
"But Is there not a panto about British
trade declining?" the correspondent asked,
"Perhaps," Sir John answered, "but it
Is not Justified by any figures that It is
possible to obtain. The rise of German
trade expanalon, upon which Mr. Chamber.
lain eniargea, la due first to the fact that
commercially Germany Is a new country,
and. secondly, to the fact that Germany
educates her work people. Tariffs will not
help us tn such a situation."

(Copyright, 1903. by Press Publishing Co.)
PARIS. June 13. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) The arrest
of Canon Rosenberg by mistake at Beyrout
ends, at leaFt temporarily, a career In
which whs exhibited a genius for crime.
The attempted frauds on J. Plerpont Mor
gan by Count Bosdart hod aroused the
police all ovei the globe. Rosenberg bears
an astonishing resemblance to Bosdarl and
his actions had so attracted attention that
he was seized under the Impression that
he was Ilosdarl. The mistake was dis
covered later and hla real Identity became
nown.
In 1883 Rosenberg waa a full-fledged
canon, with the living of the Tours
cathedral, worth $12,000 a year, obtained
through the Influence of Duchess d'Albu
fera. His "way with the ladles,' In fact,
seems to have been his short cut to riches.
His first business venture was In ad
vising titled women how to invest their
money. When they became penniless and
he was bankrupt, with liabilities amount.
ng to $625,000, he was suspended by his
uperlor.
Then he began granting divorces to pious
women for a consideration. He repre
sented himself as the blBhop of Cyprus,
Ith power to annul marriages without
ppeal to the pope. He had received In
fees many thousands of dollars when Mme.
Civet's case attracted the attention of the
police.
Mme. Civet had a civil divorce, but
wanted to annul the religious ceremony.
With the aid of Abbe Gulllatmln and a
banker named Mallcval he obtained 184.000
from her. After a time she became con
vinced of his double-dealing and yet ahe
loaned htm 14,000 to go to America to
negotiate a loan for the Turkish govern
ment.
He had Just helped a girl and her lover
to elope and received a snug sum from
the brlde'a dot on her reconciliation with
her parents, when Mme. Civet's inquiries
made It Imperative for him to move.
He contracted In Paris to send the son of
rich woman to America, for which he
was to get a large amount. The boy had
been spirited out of the country, but the
money had not yet changed hands when
gain the Civet importunities forced him
to flee. He used to send young women to
gamble for him at Monte Carlo and has a
record covering many cities for obtaining
everything from a house on credit and
leaving without paying.
His disappearances when the detectives
seemed on the very point of seising him
were little short of miraculous. At one
time he was discovered domiciled with two
pretty girls In a delightful cottage near
Paris. The precautions to secure him were
elaborate, but he vanished.
His quarters In the Prison de la Santeln,
Paris, will not be far from those occupied
by the banker, Boulalne, whose bogus com.
panles he floated with so much ingenuity
Despite Boulalne's cleverness, however,
Rosenberg once succeeded In relieving him
of 840,000. .

BELONGS TO A NOTED BRITISH FAMILY
Possessing a Title She Has an
Aversion to All Titles and
Seriously Objects to

(Copyright, 1903, by Press Publishing Co.)
LONDON, June 13. (New York World Ca
blegramSpecial Telegram.) Lady Henry
Somerset, for many years the president of
the Women's Christian Temperance union
of Great Britain, lately resigned because
she had been converted to municipal own
ership of public houses, and the countess
of Carlisle was chosen president In her
stead.
Lady Carlisle Is one of the most radical
women In the British Isles, not only on
the drink question, but In other things.
She would like to abolish all titles of
nobility. If her husband and friends did
not Insist upon her using her title, a very
old one, she would have dropped It long
ago. The first earl of that line was created
in 1601, but the family was prominent In
English history many generations before
that time and Is connected by numerous
Intermarriages with most of . the great
ducal families. Lady Carlisle was a Stan
ley, of Alderley, and is a sister of the
present baron.
She believes so thoroughly In women's
advancement that she has none but women
servants In her houses and about her
estates, unless a man is absolutely neces
sary. She has the tallest women servants
to be found for "footmen," a stout and
dignified woman as butler, women garden
ers and women even in the atable.
She and her brothers have shown extra
ordinary qualities of character tn their
religloua convictions. Lady Carlisle leans
to the Methodlat faith; her brother, L.
Stanley, who will be the future baron. Is
an agnostic, while another brother Is one
of the most pronounced English Catholics
of the day and is a monslgnor and domestic
prelate to the pope.
Lady Carlisle is so democratic that when
her daughters were entering society she
announced they would not be allowed to
marry sny but eomomners. Consequently
they made love matches. One married a
noted professor, George Gilbert Murray,
professor of Greek In . the Glasgow uni
versity. ('Professors In England are not
generally conalderejL goo, enough for an
earl's daughter and the marriage was bit
terly opposed by the girl's aristocratic
relatives.
The Carllsles have two big places tn the
country Castle Howard, at York, one of
the show places of England, and Haworth
castle, at Carlisle. They contain cele
brated pictures of the modem as well as
the ancient schools, the present earl being
an artist himself, a friend of Buskin and
devoted to the art Ideas of William Morris.
Then there Is the town house In Ken
sington, where Lady Carlisle rallies around
her the most radical people to be found In
London.

BRICKLAYERS SETTLE
Strike Whioh Has Helped Tie Up Building
Operations Comet to an End.
PORTION OF WORK CAN NOW PROCEED
Men Secure Increase in Wages, but Union
Becognition Not Granted.
COAL AND LUMBER TEAMSTERS SETTLE
Return to Work on What is Known as the
Employers' Scale.
LABOR LEADERS TALK OF SITUATION
Admit They Had Expected tho Col
lapse of the Teamsters' strike for
gome Time and Dlaeonnt
Its Effect.
The bricklayers' strike Is settled and the
men will return to work Monday. The
team drivers' strike Is practically disposed
of and most of the teamsters will go back
to work when they can.
The Bricklayers' union and Builders' ex
change, comprising the leading contractors
of the city, have signed up an agreement
for one year and a half, which gives the
men an Increase from 66 cents to 62V4
cents an hour and takes no cognisance of
the union, the men being taken back as
Individuals.
The teamsters who were In the employ
of the coal and lumber companies have
signed what has been known as the "em
ployers' scale" and will return to work
Monday or as soon thereafter as possible.
This scale offers no recognition of the
union and restores the men to their former
places upon substantially the same basis
as obtained when they struck. Many of
the transfer drivers are already back at
work, but no formal action has been taken
in their case. The teamsters' strike, there
fore, as well as the bricklayers. Is prac
tlcally a thing of the past.
With these two strikes settled the firma
ment of labor turmoils In Omaha is brighter
than It has been for many moons and the
prospects of an entirely clear sky are en
couraging. .With the bricklayers back at
work, though the hod carriers and car
penters are yet on strike, the bulk of
building, of which there was a big volume
In the city, may be resumed and many a
wheel of the city's Industrial machinery,
so long at a standstill, again set tn motion.
Of course the great majority of union
bricklayers, like the carpenters, have left
Omaha. There are now but thirty-seven
In the city, ready to take up their trowels
Monday. The normal ' number of union
men Is 160, Others may return.
What They Asked and Got.
The bricklayers were getting 65 cents an
hour and demanded 65 . cents. The settle
ment, therefore, Is In the form of a com
promisu. The men demanded full recogni
tion of ttiotr union. In harmony with. -the
concerted action of all' tho unions In the
city which went on strike. This they did
not receive. Furthermore, they will work
beside nonunion carpenters and hod car
riers If necessary. - .
Among the largest Jobs pf building Is the
Auditorium, the completion of the new
market house, work on the Krug theater
and many private buildings. No settlement
has yet been made with the hod carriers
none with the cajpentera. The majority
of the latter, like the bricklayers, have
left- the city and are working elsewhere
under union conditions. The hod carriers
have gone to the four winds also. Some
time ago prominent contractors asserted
their willingness to settle with the hod
carriers by giving them what they de
manded as soon as the bricklayers' strike
could be disposed of. Whether this will
bo done remains to be seen. ' New condi
tions have arisen of course. As to the car
penters. It Is said the bulk of the im
portant work can progress for some time
before they will be badly needed. In the
meantime It la hoped amicable relations
can be restored between them and the con
tractors.
Hiek Stevenson Fined.
The Bricklayers' union met at Labor tem
ple last night and ratified the agreement
between them and the contractors. The
vote for ratification was 32 to 6, and by
the same vote C. A. Stevenson, business
agent for the Building Trades council, waa
fned $100 and suspended from the union.
pending the payment of the fine, the eharge
being that he failed to vote as the union
had Instructed htm In the selection of the
arbitration committee between the brick
layers and the contractors.
The Building Trades council, which
comprises seven unions, Instructed me to
vote for seven members from our side for
that conference committee," said Steven
son, "and the Bricklayers' union, one or
ganisation, ordered me to vote for only five
members. I voted for seven. The fine and
suspension was tha result That Is all I
have to say."
Friday night the teamsters met and de
cided to call off the transfer drivers' strike.
The action was not unanimous, but taken
by a large majority. Saturday considerable
dissatisfaction waa manifested over thta
action and the element which originally
opposed quitting had gathered additional
strength and exerted a strong effort to
secure a repudiation of the action the day
before. But It waa futile.
The collapse of the teamsters' strike
aroused considerable comment as to the
outcome of other strikes.
Effect of Teamsters' Collapse.
"Tha collapse of the teamsters' strike
will have no effect on the general labor
situation In Omaha," said George W, Miles,
president of the Carpenters' union. "The
teamsters' weakness haa been apparent for
some time and their action did not surprise
anyone who was tn touch with the situa
tion. The only possible hearing this sur
render can have on the rest of the strikers
Is what It may derive from the estimation
of the public. Many people naturally will
regard this aa an evidence of general weak
ness and a move toward disintegration of
the general labor forces, but that Is wrong.
The actual strength or potency of the laboV
I .1 ... -.W ....... V. 1 .
organisations on strike cannot be Impaired
by th action or th teamsters. It Is mors
substantial and far-reaching than that.
Numerically th teamsters are strong, but
their organisation Is not on of great
strength In Omaha, and Ilk all men of
unskilled trade they are subject to collapse
and unable to withstand the elements of a
strike as can a union mora compact and
skilled."

east was an advancement to him In his pro
fession. He alluded to 'his coming to
Omaha as a piece of great fortune and
paid glowing tributes to the older leaders
of the Douglas county bar, who have had
so much to do In helping his own advance
ment Those who spoke werei Judge Irving F.

ARREST UNI0N CARPENTERS
Elements Opposed to Strikers Spring;
tho Antl-Framo Building
Ordinance.
For alleged violation of an ordinance
prohibiting the erection of frame buildings
within fire limits John Bordman and James
Gladwin, union carpenters, were arrested
yesterday afternoon and confined at the
police station until balled out at night by
John O. Yelser, attorney.
Bordman and Gladwin were putting up
a little frame summer kitchen as an ad
Junct to the building at 1322 Douglaa street
leased by the Witters' union and by It to
be occupied as a restaurant and cafe. It
Is alleged by the unionists that some of
the elements opposing them In the present
labor difficulties Instigated the scheme for
the arrests as a retaliatory measure for
the aggression displayed by the Walters'
union tn establishing these co-operative
places of business.
TEXTILE STRIKE NEARS END
Another Firm Gives Way While Ma
terial Shortage May Force
Settlement.
PHILADELPHIA. June 11 There were
no new developments today In the textile
workers' strike other than the granting
of the demands by Coxe Bros., haircloth
manufacturers, making eighty-nine conces
slons up to date.
A scarcity of yarn has resulted from the
strike and the Idle operatives assert that
yarn mills will soon be compelled to grant
the demands If an utter stagnation of the
textile Industry Is to be averted. With all
the yarn mills Idle, It will not be long be
fore the planta conceding the fifty-five
hour week will be forced to close for lack
of material.

(Copyright 1908, by Press Publishing Co.)
BELGRADE. June 13. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) The moat
aatoundlng part of the aftermath of Thurs
day's tragedy Is the apathy of the popula
tion. The people conduct themselves aa If
the whole terrible matter waa as nothing to
them They appear not to be Interested In
the events of the past or In the future,
only a few even troubling to buy the extra
editions of the newspapers recounting the
affair. When questioned as to whether
they would prefer King Peter or a republlq
people shrug their shoulders and say It la
the same1 to them.
This apathy Is still unbroken and appar
ently the details of troops who nightly
parade the streets are more by way of or
nament than guard, for after dark the peo
ple stay rigidly at home.
Alexander Favor ueen.
The ringleaders of the conspiracy declare
that among Alexander's papers was found
a Skuptshlna bill making the queen's
brother, Nlcodem, heir to the throne, and
the queen's sisters and younger brothers
members of the royal house with the title
of princesses and princes and giving them
an Income from the exchequer.
Minister Tudorovlcs haa succumbed . to 1
his wounds.
Minister of Commerce Genshtcs, In an In
terview, said he considered that If there
was sny republican tendency In the cabi
net It waa Insurgent The election of a
ruler, he thought could not occur before
Tuesday, but It was almost certain Prince
Peter Karageorgevltch would be elected.
Prince Mlrko of Montenegro had no chance
whatever.
Alexander Constantly Err I mgr.
M. Genshlcs was reticent aa to the events
at the palace early on Thursday morning.
He did not consider It expedient to publish
an official account of what had transpired
until matters had settled down. The min
ister added that since his accession the
late King Alexander committed constant
errors and lost his hold on the public by
hla marriage to ' Queen Drags . and the
comedy played In connection with the
preparations for the birth of an alleged
heir.
The coup de'etat was fixed for June 11
because on that day Queen Drags wished
to proclaim her brother, Nlkodem, heir to
the throne. ."
M." Genshlcs concluded with' endorsing
Prince Peter as an honorable man and
earnest well wisher of Servla.
The chief Interest centers In the ap
proaching aesslon of the 8kupshtlna. The
election of Prince Peter as king of Bervla
Is regarded aa certain, although Prince
Mlrko of Montenegro may have some votes.
Here and there a republican tendency Is
noticeable.
Notices have been placarded on the walls
of Belgrade enjoining the people to ob
serve the laws and reminding them that
meetings of any kind on the day preced
ing the assembling of the Skupshtlna, or
during Its session, are strictly prohibited.
Mingled with the satisfaction felt at the
success of the coup d'etat there Is some
sense of depression and anxiety - at the
possibility of foreign Intervention.
The war minister ' has Issued a decree
dismissing several military commanders
and appointing successors to their posts.
Peter Asks Advice,
GENEVA, Swltserland, June 13. (New
York World Cablegram Special Telegram.)
Prince Peter Karageorgevltch went to
the country this afternoon. Before leaving
he made the following statement:
I expect to secret myself In the country,
away from my friends as well as from
other people, until Tuesday, after the de
cision of the Skuptshlna. Then I shall
make a proclamation. I have .telegraphed
my brother-in-law, the king of Italy, ask
ing him to counsel me In deciding whether
It Is best to renounce my rights In favor of
my son George.
I have htd no communication with th
cxar in the matter.
Belgrade in No Danger,
PARIS, June IS. The Foreign office here
today received dlapatchea from the French
mlnlater at Belgrade saying that the city
and country are quiet and that th Servian
officials have been established and that
there la no truth In the reports that a
portion of ths Servian army Is marching
to attack Belgrade.
Sultan Much Affected.
CONSTANTINOPLE. Jun 13.-Th ter
rible drama at Belgrade caused stupefaction
at tha Vlldlx kiosk. .The sultan waa so
affected that he waa unable to listen to the
detaila published in the newspapers and
allowed those who conversed with him to
speak only of the "death of the king and
queen of Servla." and would not permit
tbem to mention the word assassination.
It Is announced here that King' Charles
of Roumanla. who was honorary colonel
of the Sixth Regiment of Servian Infantry
which perpetrated the massacres at Bel
grade, has severed his connection with th
regiment which h considers haa given

In State of Terror.
VIENNA, Jun 18. It la now known that
th lata King Alexander lived In a atate of
terror during the last weeks of his life.
Nightly soldiers 'searched the pulace from
roof to cellar, peering Into all dark corners.
The king was securely locked In his bed
chamber by an attendant In the presence
of the palace commander. It Is also stated
that for several weeks the lata queen had
prepared for flight
Queen Draga's sisters were permitted to
have a laat look at the body of the late
queen. They say the corpse was shrouded
In white silk. The youngest of Draga's
sisters was carried away unconscious. In
the late king's desk there was found. In
addition to various papers, about $10,000. I
The Austrian foreign office' pays acant
attention to the reports that Prtnc Peter
may renounce hla clalma to the Servian
throne tn favor of his eldest son. The offi
cials here consider this quite Improbable,
especially as It would necessitate a regency
which under the present I. olrcumstances
