American Leader Denoaneea Interna
tional Strikebreaking.
PARIS, Sept. 1. Samuel Qompers, presi
dent of the American Federation of Labor,
addressed the International Trades Unions
congress tod a v. He denounced interna
tional strike-breaking and declare the sys
tem of immigration of workmen In times
of depression and strikes in other countries
to be one of the greatest menaces of or
ganized labor. :
Mr. (Jumpers' proposal for the organiza
tion of an international federation of work
men could not be discussed because the
American Federation of Labor is nut
affiliated with the European unions, but a
British resolution of the same Import was
adopted. The conference ..then , passed a
resolution against workmen, offering their
services . at. times when dockmen" ,'and
stevedores go out on strike.. . ..
The conference adjourned tod a to meet
at Budapest In 1911. Mr. Qompers thankpd
the delegates for the courtesies extended
to him. ,
Mr. Qompers was one of the principal
speakers at a labor mass meeting tonight
for the abolition of war. The feature of
the proceedings was the sharp battle to
expel a band of anarchists; who tried .tq

.The speakers upheld their Spanish cam,
rades In their revolt against war waged In
the interests of capitalists.', Mr, Qompers
said that In 1908 It ought not to be neces
sary to organise a demonstration hi favor
of universal peaoe; nevertheless arma
ments had increased and the burden was
always falling on the workers.
The meeting closed With the adoption of
a resolution expressing (terror at warfare
and the determination to reply to a
declaration of war bjr the declaration of a
strike.

DECREASE IN THE
DEncry
Redaetlon nf Nearly Sis Mlllloaa far
Month la Partly Aereisted for '
by Methods of Dlsbaree
meat. WASHINGTON, Sept 1. The customs
receipts for today were nearly twice as
great as for September 1, of last year, ac
cording to flgues given out at the Treas
ury department today. This Is taken as
a fair Indication of ths effect of the new
Payne tariff law, although a percentage
of the receipts must n-cessarlly be credited
to the Dlngley law, as Importations, which
have been held In bond since being brought
In prior to the enactment of the law, are
being withdrawn every day.
It Is also said that the Increase Is to
some extent due to the better business
oondltlons existing now as compared with
a year ago. The customs receipts at all
ports today were $1.408,937,. as compared
with $768,4M for September t 1908.
Decrease la Deficit.
There was a deficit of $7,411,728 In the
ordinary receipts and disbursements Of the
Treasury department for the month of
August, as compared "with a deficit of
$1X103.949 for July.
As the greater number of the general ap
propriations become available for the use
of the various branches of the government
during July, the first month of the fiscal
year, the reduction In the deficit In August
Is largely accounted for. There was also
a smaller deficit In the receipts and dis
bursements for the construction of the
Panama canal, the shortage being $3,070,213
for July and $2,004,127 for August.
From the customs the Treasury depart
ment received $38,589,626 for August, while
the receipts from the same source In July
were $29,963,161. During August $19,798,768
was received from the Internal taxes and
$2,778.S3 was obtained from miscellaneous
sources.
Foetal Deficit Big;.
The postal deficiency for August
amounted to $3,000,000 as compared with
half that amount for July. The War de
partment used over $12,000,000 during the
last month, while the maintenance of the
navy called for a little more than $10,000,000.
The public debt leas the cash balance In
the treasury at the beginning of business
today was $1,047,211,000 This does not Include
II, 31,211, S69 in certificates and treasury
notes which la offset by an equal amount
of cash In the treasury. The recapltula
tlon of the debt shows $913,317,490 In Inter
est bearing debt, $2,814,475 In debt on which
Interest has ceased since maturity and
S3S0.417.144 In debt bearing no Interest. The
statement of the cash In the treasury shows
a total of $1,722,121 divided as follows:
Reserve funds, gold coin and bullion, $150,
000,000; trust funds, $1,343,211,869 to offset
certificates and treasury notes; general
fund, $169,094,234; In National bank depos
itories, $54,022,746; and In the treasury of
the Philippine Islands, $5,901,271. -

AMERICAN FIRST
AT NORTH l'OLE
(Continued from First Tags.)
Cook dated at Etah, August 26, gave this
Information:
"I find that I have a good opportunity
to try for the pole and therefore. I will stay
here for a year. I hope to get to the
explorera club In September, 1908, with the
record of the pole, f I plan to cross Ellen
more land and reach the polar sea by Nan
Sen strait. I hope you can Induce some of
the members of the club to come and meet
me at Cape York. Here's for the pole with
the riag."
About the same time Herbert L. Brldg
man of Brooklyn received this letter from
Cook, similarly dated!
"I have hit upon a new route to the north
pole and I will stay to try It. By way of
Buchanan bay ' and , F.llesmore land and
northward through Nansen strait over the
polar sea seems to me to be a very good
route. There will be game to the 82d degree
and there are natives and dogs for the
task. So here Is for the pole. Mr. Bradley
will tell you the rest. Kind regards to all."
' Dank for Pole tn Winter.
Dr. Frederick A. Cook, accompanied by
a Norwegian, left Etah. Greenland, March
S, 1908, taking with hint eight Eskimos, four
sledges and twelve dog teams. He was
to tnaks his way through Ellsmereland.
Dr. Cook lives In Brooklyn.
For years Dr. Cook has given his atten
tion to Arctic explorations, and in 1891-2
was surgeon of the Peary Arctic expedi
tion, and In 1897-9 surgeon of the Belgian
Arcflo expedition. He has received numer
ous decorations from the geographical so
cieties of Europe for his research and
writings In the polar field.
Dr. Cook started on his present expedi
tion In the summer of 1907, sailing from
North Sydney, C. B., on the schooner John
R. Bradley, with Captain Moses Bradley
as sailing master.
The party was reinforced with sledgea,
dogs and Arctic equipment nt Etah, Green
land, whence they sailed March 3, ''OS.
Dr. Cook's plan was to set aside all tradi
tion by making the dash to the pole during
the winter months, when the elements are
considered least advantageous for an ad
vance northward. . Nothing has been heard
from Dr. Cook for the last eighteen months.
Thousand Miles from Pole.
It was Dr. Cook's plan to make his base
of supplies or permanent camp at Anna
toak. In Greenland, about twenty miles
north of Etah. This would place him about
1,000 miles from the pole. He first made
his wsy westward out of the cache and
across to Ellsmereland. The Arctic club
calculates that he reached this position In
the spring of 1908. The last news received
from him was dated March 17, 1908, when
he was near Capo Thomas Hubbard,
He then reported .that his health was ex
cellent, that he had picked up a large
party of Eskimo of superior Intelligence,
and that his prospects for auccoes . were
bright. He Intended to push on to the
northern point of Grantland, and from
there started his. dash to the pole In the
winter of 1908. He expected Xo return to
his quarters at Annatoak not later than
next month, -1 . , y,
. Dr. Cook, was Ibern at Callcoon Depot.
Sullivan county, , New York, In 1865.. He
was married. In Brooklyn in 1903 to Miss
Mary Hunt,,. Hiss wife has shared the be
lief of the Arctic club that her husband
has achieved the goal of the north pole.
