Chicago, July 25.—The threatened ' sympathetic strike at the stock yards went into effect at 10 o’clock this morning when 10,000 can workers, | steam fitters, electicians, plumbers, machinists, boxmakers, millwrights and helpers, teamsters, cattle hand- lers, engineers and firemen went out in sympathy with the meat cutters. Chicago, July 25.—A fruitless con: ference was held during the day be tween the strike leaders and repre setatives of the packers at the office of Swift & Co. The meeting broke up in a disagreement after a short ses- sion and President Donnelly’s follow- ers adjourned to the headquarters of ! the American Federation of Labor te | discuss a sympathetic strike.

It was as follows: “On account of the discrimination shown hy the packers and their viola: tion of the agreement of last Wednes- day all stock yards employes on a strike shall Dbe reinstated within Those who take the initia: tive in reopening activities, such as the butchers, those who kill, are to be re- instated within forty-eight hours.” This was refused by representatives of the packers, who, in turn, asserted they were willing to adhere to the old contract and that they had named Samuel McLain as an arbitrator in ac cordance to the terms of that agree ment. In the reply to the ultimatum of the strikers the empioyers also as serted they stood ready to remedy any | errors or mistakes made in efiorts ta fulfill the old contract. The union men announced that they were firm in the dctermination that the old agreement was made null and void by the alleged discrimination shown Friday. After the breaking up of the con ference Thomas I Kidd of the Amer- ican Federation of Labor, who was practically the spokesman of the labor leaders, said: ‘“There will be no more conferences | unless they are grranged for later. The packers said thdy would stick to the! said that | the agreement had been xendvlcd void day and| » This new agreement provided for the' taking back of the butchers within forty-eight hours and of the other men within ten days. The packers would | mot agree to this and peace is not in sight.” Packers Are Given Warning. The meeting of labor leaders, fol loewing the failure of the peace con- ference with the packers, decided not to recede from the demands outlined. EVACUATE ‘NEWCHWANG ‘Washington, July 25'~-Minister Con- ger at Peking has notified the state department that the Russians today evacuated New Chwang. THE ATTEMPT A FAILURE. Japanese Try to Break Through Rus- sian Lines. Liaoyang, July 25.—Two Japanese divisions have tried to break through Lieutenant General Count Keller’s left. General Herschelman, with the aid of reinforcements hurriedly sent forward, made a successful stand. ‘Details of the engagement are not yet known. The Japanese have left only two di- visions at Kaichou. These are strong- ly entrenched and on the defensive. Other Japanese troops formerly at Kai- chou were embarked on transports for the vicinity of Port Arthur. The cap- | ture of that stronghold has become a vital question for the Japanese. They have been able hitherto to adopt the offensive, but they realize that General Kuropatkin himself will be prepared soon to take the offensive and foresee that they must have a strong naval base. Port Arthur is the key to all Japanese operations. BATTLE AT SYBEL PASS. Engagement Results in Engagement of Russians. St. Petersburg, July 25.—General i Kuropatkin reports in a dispatch to the emperor that a detachment ol Russian troops commanded by Col- onel Tsybulsky gave battle in the Sy- bel pass July 17 to a superior force of The engagement resulted in the retirement of the Russians with the loss of 1 officer and 46 men killed and 4 officers and 182 men wounded. In another fight on the Mukden road July 19 several companies of dismount- ed Cossacks offered a stubborn resist- ance to the Japanese advance gnard. The Russians fell back on Siaosyr. One man was killed and thirteen wounded. The Japanese suffered con: siderable losses. JAPS HOLD SIGOW | PASS. Are Expected to Push Forward When Reinforced. Sinzintin, Seventy Miles.

Steamers Stopped Pending Re- ceipt of Orders Will Be Set at Libery. st. Petersburg, July 25.—The Asso- ciated Press is able to announce that Russfa has informally notified Great Britain that orders have been issued to the Russian cruisers in the Reéd sea not to arrest any more merchant- men and it has been agreed between the two powers that if, pending the receipt of these orders by the captains of the, St. Petersburg and the Smol- ensk, any other ships should be stop- ped and held as prizes these acts shall be regarded as not having taken place and the ships concerned at once re- leased. -~ While not admitting thé illegality of the Russian action in converting vessels of the volunteer fleet into war- ships after they had reached the Red sea, it is probable, in view of the fact that neutral ships did not receive pre- vious notice, that Russia, in order to remove the shadow of a cloud upon their right to fly the war flag, will formally notify the powers of their conversion into warships, thus putting all neutrals upon their gnard. In the meantime all the ships seized will be released unmless the captains refuse to show their manifests, in which event the procedure in the case of the Malacca probably will be fol- lowed. IN THE HANDS OF RUSSIANS STEAMER SCANDIA OF THE HAM- BURG-AMERICAN LINE IS CAPTURED. Buez, July 25.—The Hamburg-Amer- ican line steamer Scandia, seized by the Russians in the Red sea, has just arrived here. She flies the Russian naval flag, is commanded by a Russian naval officer and is manned by a naval crew. She will enter the canal. Her destination is not known. The Scandia hails from Hamburg and passed Gibraltar July 5 on her way to China. Hamburg, July 25—The officials of the Hamburg-American line declare that the seizure of the steamer Scan- dia by the Russians is inexplicable, as her manifests show that she did not carry any kind of war material for Japan. The company has asked the foreign office to take up the matter and secure an explanation. The Scandia had on board a con- signment of ammunition, a portion of which, it is asserted, was to hi.ve been landed at Singapore for transporta- tion to the German government sta- tions in the South sea. The other por- tion was billed to Shanghai for the Chinese government, Port Said, July 25.—The Peninsular and Oriental company’s steamer Cey- lon, homeward bound from Yokohama and Penang, has arrived here. She reports that the cruiser St. Petersburg of the Russian volunteer squadron sig- nalled her July 18 when twenty hours from Suez asking where she was from and where she was bound, after which the Cevlon wag allowed to proceed. svvv'vvvv“mvwvw"vm DR.F.

The cause of all female diseases is in the spinal column (small of the back) and T find it is unnecessary to adjust other than the cause; for the removal of the cause always allows the ‘ diseased organs to resume their natural positions and functions.
