(Special' Cablegram 1" Tha Beee.V A labor party has been formed In Toklo and a strong manifesto has been issued, declaring that the existing labor conditions are deplorable. The new party- program Includes oppo sition to monopolies, universal male and female suffrage, a general Increase if wages and reduction of hours, the aboli tion of capital punishment and of tltitWr distinctions, fundamental reform In taxa tion and arbitration in all international questions. The organizers are not men of much in fluence, but the movement Is significant in view of the recent Increase In labor troubles snd the socialist disturbances concerning he raising of tramway fares.

According to the British consul at l'oo Chow, II. F.

Ths local committee, however.

This feeling found expression at many public meetings, where th young China element, or youths who had had some slight training In foreign missionary schools, took a prominent part. Much vaporing was indulged In, but the only actual outcome of It was the dissemina tion of the placards calling upon 'the poo pie to refrain from buying American goods and warning shopkeepers against storking them: any stocks they had thev were al :ocks they bad thev were lah Control Traf II 4 in American goods, a .we lowed to dispose Brit ine iraae in American goods, ajwever, la entirely in the hands of British mer chants, as, there ara no American tlrnia es tablished at Foo Chow, and they say that nu long as the impress of American oilgln waa not too conspicuously stamped on the goods little difficulty was experienced In finding purchasers.

With the consent of the pope the archbishop cardinal is to sue the municipality for damages. The leading Italian newspaper announces that HUrty of religion Is presently to be proclnlmed at Malta, which may be taken to mean that the Protestant religion will be accorded the seme privilege except ns regards financial support, as the Roman Catholic religion. The newspaper de nounces the concession, and thinks, or pretends to think. that the PtotcHtantlz Ing of Malta Is contemplated.- The Glornale d Italia reports thHt bands of Croatians have profaned the graves of Italians In the Flume cemetery. The Journal recapitulates many recent Inci dents, such as the maneuvers In the Adriatic and the outburst or anti-ltallan fanaticism, whlevh have cast a shadow on Austro-Italian relations and revealed anci ent animosity.

"We are grieved." continues the organ, "at these too frequent Incidents, which render ever more difficult the nuintenence of friendly relations with Austria. The Italian government must, act flnnly to de fend the Interests of our fellow-subjects, and must exact respect for all Italians living on the Adriatic." The Students' association will hold a mass meeting to protest against the out rages at Flume and Varna. Much comment has been made In the Italian press on the decision of the Kmpercr Francis Joseph not to attend tho naval maneuvers or to visit the "occupied" provinces of Rosnin and Herxegovlna.

Is hnvln; avast deal of trouble over railway rates. In thi. par ticular csfc, however, tho deadlock appens to have arisen between the various South African railway administrations ns u re sult of the opening of the new line from Betheiehem to Kroonstad. It will be re membered that the line was constructed by the Natal government under nn agree ment which has lon,g been public property. The rates which the Central South Afri can railway were prepared to allow Natal to charge In respect of It were bssnd on that agreement, and were published last February. Url'-fly, thuy represent "the moht-favorcd-natlon treatment " tljat Is to say, the Cape rat-s were always certain to enable Natal to capture a certain amount of the trade of the Orange river colony which was previously given to the Cape. In other words, the Cape has now been placed In the sutne position with re spect to thst area ns the construction of the Klerksdrvi-Foiirtcen Streams railway had already pluceil Natal In with, respect to the western Transvaal. Tho two cases are precisely pe.iallel, though there is no official eonnncLlcn between them. Jn June the Cnr.e government began a tremendous proton and 'fry soon trans lated the protest Into action by announcing lhat they would grant rebates on traffic In the disputed area.

Astounding and almost Incredi ble as t.ie sensational news may seem. It Is learned that It Is within the contempla tion of the government, In the arrange ments of .the details of their forthcoming home rule idcasure to be shortly laid be fore the country, to obtain possession of the Bank of Ireland, formerly the Irish Parliament house, and hand it over to the new powers to be called Into existence as the assembly house of the Irish council, which It Is one of the proposals of the bill to establish. The, statement may well be regarded as one ,of the most sensational pieces of news given to the Irish public for a long time. The ever recurring theme of all the speeches delivered from the home rule platform since the days of O'Connell. was the assertion of the demand for the restor ation of the Irish Parliament to "the old house in College Green." It was the chief shrine In th Mecca of patriotic aspira tion, and the government is evidently de termined. In order to make up for what ever shortcomings their projected measure may present, to play down to popular sentiment In this step. Commissioners at laiwcerheads. The publication a few days ago of the report of the estates commissioners under the land purchase act of 1903, for the year ending Murch 31, has given rle to much oomment and controversy In Ireland. This important document discloses grave dif ferences of opinion, on questions both of principle and or Tact, between the com missioners, Mr, Bailey and Mr. Flnucane, and their senior colleague, Mr. Wrench. The existence of , the division of views among the estates commissioners which has now been publicly revealed has long been the subject of suspicion and rumors, causing much anxiety among the owners of Irish land, and Increasing the. difficulties In the way of an agrarian settlement upon the basis of state aided purchase for the benefit of the tenant occupiers. The re port. In fact, gives the Impression that the two Junior estates commissioners are pur suing a policy the effect of which must be to revolutionise, root and branch, the sys tem of purchase established by the act of ISM, and eulogized as a triumph of statei mansnip for Mr. Wyndham. Gibbons on Emigration. The following views of Cardinal Gibbons Upon the subject of emigration have Just b'en published here: The great curse to the Irish people In this country Is the fact that they have been dumped upon our towns and cities and Ivrrw remained there. A small propor tion of the Irlh people, especially those of the more comfortable sort, had the good fortune to escape from New York mid the othfr great cities of the coast, and to pur sue their way to Iowa. Indiana, Illinois and other western states, where they engaged In agricultural pursuits; and now they are steady and comfortable and an honor to the land of their fatli.-w. There Is a verv latge percentage! of descendants of Irish emigrants settled In Iowa especially, and lil.-o In Illinois. IT some organization could be established In Irolsnd to effect -the purchase of tracts of land in our western country, and even In our eastern Maryland, for example snd bring thrifty JHsh emigrants to set. tie there.

The new Spanish tariff remains In a kind of suspended animation. Before It should have come Into operation, on July 1 last, the British government represented to Spain that the new duties) would affect the trade in British woolens and cottons, in machinery and cutlery and other manu factures, and also seriously In coal. At the same time Spanish ministers are In ac tive negotiation with various foreign gov ernments for the rearrangement of com mercial treaties. America has practically come under an agreement whereby it Is to ray the mini mum duties of the new tariff for the pres ent, and obtain the benefit of any reduc tions that may be made in the most favored nation scale hereafter. In return for ac cording inost-favored-ndtlon treatment to Spanish goods. Special reductions, how ever, will be granted on the duties on Span ish wlnea and fruit entering the I nlted States, under the clause of the Dlngley act, which authorizes the president to make such concessions without referring to con gress. Under this agreement America ob tains equal treatment with the great manu facturing countries of Europe, and also with the producers of brcadstuffs like Rus sia and Roumaulu. The hope and expecta tion of the Spanish government Is to ef fect similar agreements with all the South American republics, but this ' at present seems at tiest doubtful. Switzerland, the repeal of the treaty with which was the Immediate cause of the all-round fiscal dis turbance, has not yet agreed to a new commercial treaty, and has not even as sented to a modus Vivendi by continuing the old convention till the end of the year, though it is stated In Madrid that negotia tions have at last been opened at Berne which promise an amicable settlement. Meanwhile, however. Spanish goods enter ing Switzerland are paying the highest duties on the Swiss tariff, plus a surcharge of 50 per cent, and Swiss goods entering Spain also pay the highest duties, plus Ml per cent. Such are the practical pleasan tries of tariff quarrels. Germany has struck a convention with Spain to place their respective Imports on most-favored-natfon treatment until the end of this year, by which time - it Is hoped that a new treaty will lie drafted. German goods en tering Spain are, therefore, now paying the duties in the second column of the revised Spanish tariff, while Spanish goods enter ing Germany are taxed on the lowest scale of the Imperial tariff. France and Italy have been till now, as standoffish aa Switz erland. France Is, next to Great Britain, the largest customer of Spain. The trade has suffered through protection!; on both sides, and France now resents the summary termination of the most -favored-nation agreement which has existed between the two countries for a dozen years. GERMANY'S COLONIAL ERRORS Herr Krsberger Promises Greater - Revelations When Reichstag Meets In November. BERLIN, Oct6. (Special Cablegram to TJie.Bee. I Tb-cojitlnued revelations of flerr Krsberrer nn colonial mlsntanAre- ment, and his statement that he ha yctlan op'nlon' h towhen he would return to play his trump card, have created a general feeling of uneasiness, and In many quarters of profound dissatisfaction wltli the. entire colonial policy of the' govern ment. The announcement that when the Reich stag meets In November a further credit of S2S.000.0W) will be asked for to cover the cost of military operations In German Southwest and Eastern Africa, does not tend to Improve the feeling caused by Herr Erzberger's revelations. It Is cal culated that within the last twenty years that Is to say, since Germany first pos sessed colonics, 'JO0,000,000 have been paid by the empire to defray colonial expenses. Against this sum exports to the colonies occupy a most lrisignlflcant place. For tha same p rlod they amount to only Sso.ono.ow. The most hopeful of Germany's posses sions, Ktao Chau, Including the cost of the Boxer expedition, has already swallowed $90,000,000, while the exports to Kiao Chau In lfltfi were only S'J.OOO.OOO. For 1A06 It Is calculated that the German colonies will cost the empire S33,00ti.00i). Its income from the colonies is about 12,730.000, while its ex ports thereto will certainly not exceed S1L',. 000,000. or the. 190th part of the empire's en tire export trade. i FAST TIME NOT DESIRED One Transatlantic Steamship Com pany Goes In for Slow Time and Comfort.

He has not yet responded. Mean while the preparations continue for tho dispatch of the entire force of 5,500 men as originally planned.' Secretary Beeot and Governor Magoon wers In confidence with the president at the White House today for some .tlnte, the purpose being to instruct the governor relative to his treatment of the Cuban question when he assumed office at Ha vana. General Bell, chief of stuff, who is leaving Washington this afternoon with Governor Magoon for Havana by way of Tamps, also called on the president. It Is now stated that there is jio present In tention of depurting from the program originally outlined for the dispatch of troops for Cuba, and within a few hours It Is expected that some of the troopships will be leaving Newport News for Ha vana. Whether or not other detachments In addition lo those originally ordered to Cuba will be sent,' it is now declared, will depend entirely upon Secretary Taft's re port upon conditions there. Marines Disarm Rebels, HAVANA, Oct. 6. A detachment of 2J0 insurgents toduy rode Into the Caridad suburb of the city of Puerto Principe wav ing machetes and threatening people. Twenty American inarlnea from the de tachment on duty at Puerto Principe went to Caridad, dispersed the Insurgents and arrested thirty-nine of them. General Caba Hero, tho insurgent leader, with 100 men, thereupon proceeded to the head quarters of the commander of the marines dnd demanded the release of the captured Insurgents. Instead of releasing them the Americans disarmed Caballcro and all of his followers who could bo caught. There upon Caballero promised that all the In surgents under his co-mvutd would dis arm. Governor Taft today said he had no in tention of turning back any part of the expedition of 5,600 regular troops ordered to Cuba. He feels that, this number Is needed as a precaution against future trouble. The question of pride as to which sldu shall lay down their arms flint is causing soma difficulty in Plnur del Bio as elsewhere. Even the municipal police havo been temporarily disbanded In some In stances as a precaution against clashes.

"We are all tho results of our efforts," 'old, "and these efforts have extended over the last eleven months. We will come out all right on the son son, although several lltt'e things were not ex actly a1 we wished. Tho expenses of running the fall festival wero 25 peer cent i greater this year than ever beifore because ! of the advance In the price of lumber j ana moor.. . . Airship a Great Card- . . "The airs, !p was a great expense, cost ing us over 13,000, but It was a great card and we wore bound to have tho latest and best attraction which was to be had. Mr. Hamilton made three successful nights and for these he earned an extra 11. One. The wind has kept him from making fur- I ther ascensions, although we offered a nlco bonus If he would fly while tho crowds were here. The New Parker Amusement company brought tis the cleanest and finest lines of. shows we have over been able to place before tho public .and wo were rewareled for our chol by having these shows turn Into our treasury over 20 per cent more than did any previous shows. It shows the people want some thing of mnrlt and will putroulze what they want to see. "You remember I told you we did not look for much larger crowds than we had latt, year, as It Is almost Impossible for the rail rood a to bring In. more, but still there were more and all were pleased. The board was especially pleased with the Initiation. Last year, with a hustling committee Working over slje weeks, wu had 1,028 members and this year, without any hustling committee, we see-u rod 1,044 members. The laat member was received today when W. A. Paxton sent us a, check for $10, saying he was slighted this year and did not propose to be cut out from membership just because some one would not auk him to Join. He made the last member und, of course, without the hust ling committee many were overlooked whit would have Joined." t So Fakes (or the People. Emll Brandets, chairman of the amuse ment committee, was not to be outddue by Mr. Pcnfold by the breadth of his smile snd said: "I think from what 1 have seen that the people were better satisfied with tho entertainment we pro vided this year than ever before. I know from my own experience and from talk ing with other merchants thst mora money was spent In Omaha this week than during sny other carnival period. The proceeds gave eminent satisfaction, this year, as well as the shows and the airship. When I took charge of this com mittee three years ago I laid down tha law that aa long as I was connected with th amusement committee no moro fakes would go. For that reason we spent a lot of money on the airship and It madu good. The parades were not fakes, but were the real stuff and that is what all may export in the future." "You might suy for me," said Charles H. lie kens of the- Board of Governors, "thst there were altogether Uio many merchants In this city who derived Immense benefits from the parades who did not subscribe a rent to the fund. Our parades this year cost us lit;, owl, or tl00 more than last year, and of this the committee was ablt to raise but fX.&tO from the merchants. We took the teb-phone book early In ths season and picked out VaO firms whom wa thought should sutmcTtbe to fhs fund be cause of the benefits they, would derive. Although we wroto five different letters to eauh of these, we received substantial re sponses from but S00, or less than one-thlrc who should subscribe. This Is not right, for It takes all the money we can make on ' the carnival grounds to make up the deficit In the parade fund. Suppose bad weather rhpuld ftrikn us, where would we be? We would then have to go forth and make up the loss from the people who had do nated in the first place. Fine weather saved the day for us and we ars on vel vet again." Such Is the opinion of the members) of the board, and the merchants all units i saying the festival has been the banner1 of them all.
