KANSAS CITT. June 18. -A' majority of

the Kansaa City contract, recently algned

and In the Interest of the mine workers.
They say that, if the. miner are to enter
Into an unlawful agreement with the

minea In the aouthweat will be In opera
tion by the end of , the week in accordance
with the Kansas City agreement. There
are some mines at which local conditions
have not been settled, but the matters In
volved are, they say, of a trifling nature
and will be ended by President Hanraty of
the district and Commissioner Brown. The
district officials say that the Hartford, Ark.,
revolt will prove of-little consequence and
they expect the mines there to resume
within a day or two. The revolt, they say,
was caused by a misunderstanding as to
the effect the agreement had upon what is
known aa the mine run law. Tha officials
are not In accord with the revolt.

No fresh news waa reoelved here from

Press, who ahould have arrived there from
St. " Petersburg yesterday, haa not been

here from the parliamentary committee
sent to Blalystok to inquire into and re
port upon the massacre of Jews. It is
evident that the authorities will not allow
dispatches to be sent from the terror
stricken town, which is regarded as ample
proof of the horror of the situation. The
last telegram received here reached M.
Ostrogorskl, a member of the lower house
of Parliament from Grondo, yesterday. It

The Jewish outrage at Blalystok was pro
duced by provocation. The police partici

ported the rioters. The military suthorltles

to leave Blalystok were killed at the rail
road station and others succeeded In reach
ing the open Melds outside the town and
were run down by dragoons. There seems .
to be no hope of stopping the attacks. The

Awful Scenes In Hospital.
The scene at the Jewish hospital where
the majority of the Jewish dead and most
severely wounded were taken waa terri
ble. When the correspondent arrived thee
tha grass plot outside the hospital was cov
ered with mangled corpses, arranged In
tw3 long rows, awaJtlng burial. -The
wooden walk from the gate to the door,
over,a'hlch the bodies were carried, was
stained with blood. The dead and wounded
were still arriving. Many of them had
been lying untouched In - the streets for
twj days. Only the most severely Injured
were taken Inside the hospital The bodies
of .some of these were frightfully bruised
broken and mangled. A constant atream
of. unhappy , persons visited the hospital
yard and when allowed to do so, the
wards, endeavoring to locate and Identify
membera of their families or friends or
the bodies of .dear onea for burial. Some
of the oodles had already been removed.
but the hospital. attendants asserted that
about 100 in all Jiad been brought In

skirts of Blalystok, where It waa still un
safe for the Red. Cross detschments to

At the, district hospital there were six
dead persons, and eight or ten wounded.
These .were all Christians.. One man had

- Shaw Speaks la Evening
The day's celebration wound up with a
mass meeting at fheA'c'edemy of Music to
night, at which Secretary of' the Treasury
Shaw was the Jwlrtfclpal speaker. The meet-
ITlg was upeneu uy d. xiampiun iriuui e,
president. -f - -theNational Republican
league, who presented Governor Stokes of
New Jersey as 'th presiding officer. The
governor delivered a' sher spesch lit 'which
he felicitated the' republican party fo its
achievements. He was fallowed by Secre
tary 8haw, who said In part:
I have no desire to dlsguea the fact that
In a few localities there Is some restlessness
on the tariff Question. The Armrlean rxso
pie are like every other people: they grow
restless uiuier prosperity ana wellnlght dee
perate under adversity. .. .
Secretary Shaw briefly discussed the term
"Standpatter," saying Senator Hanna first
employed It In Its present significance In
1892, but said Senator Hanna did not mean
by that that the tariff should never- le re
vised. He continued: - , .
I have recognised that there are some In
equalities In the present tariff laws. If. I
could do It in a night I would make several
cnanges. But. while I have recognlxcd tha
the Dlngley tariff law, like any other larlff
law that ever will be made. Is Imperfect,
its operation has brought employment to
t very man willing to work and has secured
to every toller unprecedented compensation
we must adopt a principle ana then log.
lcally apply It. If It Is to be a tariff for
revenue only, then' let tariff for revenue
only be applied to the producers of citrus
fruits In Florida, to the producers of tex
tiles and other articles of apparel In Now
England and to the producers of wheat In
Dakota; but if it Is to be protection, then
let It be protection, to every Industry In
which our people are employed. Protection
Is not a local issue and the application of
protection must not be localised.
GOOD CROPS ALONG Bl RLINGTON
Conditions In Wyoming Are Fall, of
Bright Promises.
The crop report as prepared by the Bur

rain came to Improve all conditions. On
the Alliance division wheat waa showing
an appearance of needing rain, with some
Of the wheat headed out. On this division
oats were not In ss. good . condition as
might be, as they needed rain- Corp did
not make much progress last week owing
to the high ; wind, cool weather and lack
of moisture, but report says a good rain
would fix It all out, aa It Is getting rooted.
Potatoes on this division sre doipg well.
Grass and ranges are In good condition and
doing well. Tame grasses have suffered
from winds and lack of rain. Alfalfa, la
ready for the first cutting and will make
a good crop. The nighta have been rather
cool for growing crops, especially the corn
and the wheat have assumed a lighter color,
presumably from the cool, nights,
Wheat on the Sheridan division Is grow
ing nicely and promises a good crop. Oats
are growing very fast and promiae a good
crop. Potatoes are growing fast and doing
fine. The meadows sre in fine condition
and gram exceeds previous years, With
abundance of feed for all Kinds of stock.
About two inches of rain fell last week on
the Sheridan division, putting the soli In
splendid condition.
On the Sterling division wheat is in but
ialr condition on account ot needing rain
badly. In the vicinity of Venango and
Haywood wheat is suffering and at May

to be suffering now, being 'Cultivated for
tha firet time, potatoes are In good condl-
Inn generally. In the vicinity of Wallace
they have been wilted by the hot wind.
Other parts of the division report good
prospects for full crop. A Urge part of
the beets were blown out of the ground by
he recent high wind and about one-half
of the acreage Is being replanted. Meadows
snd pastures are in good shape and reports
Indicate that the live stock Is In excellent
otiditlon.
Crops on the Sheridan division are in
first-class condition and much better than
either the Alliance or Sterling division. All
kinds of stock fattening fast. Sheep shear
ing Is about over. Wool clipped exceeds
previous years. Shipments east for markets
should commence in about thirty days.
GARDEN TRICK IS ALL M ADR
Vegetables Are Safe and Gardeners
Are Consequently Happy.
"The rain was worth hundreds of ool-
lsrs to lis."
So said the gardeners who brought
their produce to Market square Monday
morning. , All the later vegetables were
badly in need of rain, they said, and tho
enrly vegetables they had been bringing In
for the last week were not or tho bost
qtHility.
Now there will be a new crop of
rapid growth, for a tlnte at least, of pota
toes, tomatoes, corn and other garden
products.
"I think the rain will Insure a crop or
potatoes," said Charles Trimble of J. K.
Snyder Co., wholesale fruit and produce
merchants. "Reports which came.to.ua

Betting along nicely, . though on high
ground they were beginning to suffer. I
feel now that there, will be plenty or
garden stuff this summer. Radishes and
lettuce, of course, were ruined, but new
crops of these things are coming on."
Frank Rocco said conditions have been
about the same all over the state aa at
Omaha. He says there Is no doubt now
that a good crop of potatoes will be har
vested. RIVER THRBATENS NO DISASTER
-(
Big Sladdy Subsides 'After Reaching
Climax Sunday.
From present indication little danger Is
anticipated Irom the rise in the Missouri
river at this time. Considerable good work
has been done to keep the river from flow
ing into Cut-off lake and unless something
unforeseen happens it will not flow In this
summer. The river is now is.io incnea
above lew water mark, or higher than at
any time last year when conalderabla
damage waa done by its flowing into the
lake. It had risen eight Inches in the
twenty-four hours prior to Monday morn
ing. The river la reported aa falling at Sioux
City and Blair, which should be apparent
here today.
A portion of the regular June riae In
the Missouri river -began to lift the level
of tha stream again, last Friday. It is
rather late in the season for a great change
in the Missouri above the normal.

reports, two of them, were like those from
a cannon and came almost simultaneously.
Two balls of fire exploded,' apparently
throwing flame In every direction. Mon
day morning it waa found that a tree at
Twenty-aeventh -and Capitol avenues had
been struck and a large slab carried fifty
feet Into a neighboring yard.

confusion In the matter of franks. Some
times the recipient paid, and sometimes a
missive marked "soldier's letter" went
through without pay at the other end.
