Chancellor of Syracuse University De- fends Oil Trust. o Syracuse, N. Y.. May 10.—Chancellor James R. Day ol use university has issued a statement violently at- tacking President Roosevelt for his recent utterances against the Stand- ard oil trust and incidentally berating /. R. Hearst, the press, Thomas W. on, the magazine “muck rakers,” Wall street, congress and the public generally. The chancellor's warm proclamation well may be entitled “Anarchism in the White House,” and will take place Wwith the address of his in which he eulogized John D. Archbold of the Standard Oil company, patron of Syra- cuse universit nd heatedly declared the term “tainted money™ all “tommy " that he would take for the uni- all the so-called tainted mil- ver five minutes. par “The amazing blunder is in the chief executive of the great nation attack- ing the business interests, judges and persons, in proclamations to congress and in interviews for the daily press. “There are two general forms of anarchism. The late practices of our president are the more dangerous of these two forms. That form of an¢ archism for which William R. Hearst is noted is harmless in comparison with that which takes on the forms of our institutions and laws and does un lawful, unjust and tyrannous things officially. Hearst can do little because his cloven foot instantly is seen wher- ever he steps. But anarchism clothed with official authority is covert, de- ceptive and perilous in the extreme. The press and people, who applaud it in the official form, shudder at it as Hearstism. They shudder at tlhe lesser Chancellor Day said in LAKE STRIKE - TO END. Indications Point to Early Settlement of Trouble. Cleveland, May 10.—President Keefe of the Longshoremen’s union, although known to be in the city since Tuesday, has thus far kept his whereabouts a secret. His reported movements and his conferences with different persons would indicate, however, that some- thing important is about to be done. It is pretty well established that nego- tiations are under way looking to an early settlement of the strike, but everything is being kept under cover and nothing definite can be announced. Conferences were held during the day between Keefe and several dock man- agers, Presideni Bush of the Lake Pilots’ Protective association, and John Patton, local "delegate ot the Longshoremen’s union The Brotherhood of Locomotive En- TROUBLE IS LOOKED FOR. Striking Miners at Harwick, Pa., to Be Evicted Saturday. Pittsburg, -May 10. — The armed guard has been increased at the Har- wick mine of the Allegheny Coal com- pany in anticipation of trouble next Saturday, when tlie striking miners are evicted froni.the company houses. No violence has been shown ‘as yet, but the company, officials fear an out- break at any tinie.. Groups of strikers sre constantly congregating on the streets, nonvnion iners are insulted and the feeling is ugly. The order to move followed the re- fusal of the miners to accept the terms offered by the company. So far but one:family of the seventy- five still remaining.at Harwick have obeyed the evicqen decree. b Kdwin Burritt Smith, one of thé best known lawyers in Chicago, is dead fol- lowing an illness extending over a lionaires would #ive to him. that he | Vil They applaud only the form of conld take the 1aint on the onat U¢ | anarchism that really threatens our| gineers is in session at Memphis, ak. ain the money in | Loy ie Tenn. . 3 vear. JAIL PRISONERS STRIKE. Refuse to Do Penal Work Till They Get Tobacco. ‘Washington, Pa., May 10.—Twenty county jail prisoners, composing the squad used in cleaning the public streets, went on a strike during the day which lasted until they were sup- plied with their daily alowance of to- bacco. Heretofore the county commis- gloners. had supplied the prisoners with tobacco, but an order was issued that no more be furnished. The sherift appealed to the commissioners, who rescinded the order.

HAS_BEEN AILING FOR SOME MONTHS ATTACK OF GRIP HAS DEVEL- OPED INTO A COMPLICA- TION OF DISEASES. Washington, May 10.—Senator Ar- thur P. Gorman of Maryland is erit- {cally ill at his home in this city. He- has not been in his seat in the senate for many months. Within' the last few days he had a severe sinking spell and his life was despaired of.

GONFIDENTIAL CLERK SHORT DEFALCATION OF $100,000 CAUSES SUSPENSION OF PHILADEL- PHIA BROKERS. Philadelphia, May 10.—The broker- age firm of Harrison, Snyder & Co. an- nounced during the day that defalca- tlons amounting to at least $100,000 had been committed by Edwin S. Greenfield, a confidential clerk. The discovery was made by expert ac- countants employed to examine the books of the firm. The peculations had been going on, it is said, for about #ix years. Greenfleld has not been arrested, but is under surveillance. The firm has filed a petition in bankruptey and Richard M. Vollum was appolinted re- ceiver. UPHELD BY THE VOTERS, Kansas Mayor Who Refused to En- force Laws Re-Elected. Kansas City, Kan., May 10.—Resign- Ing just before the state supreme court decided against him in ouster proceed- ings, based on his refusal to enforce laws relating to the liquor traffic and gambling, Willlam W. Rose, former Democratic mayor, was re-elected to that office at a speclal election. He defeated E. E. Venard, Republican, and David Harris, Socialist. The issue of the election was the enforcement of the prohibition and anti-gambling laws. Rose was sup- ported by the element which believes that the best interests of the city de- mand the licensing of joints and gam- bling halls, as they maintain that a strict enforcement of the law against such places deprives the’city of nec- essary revenue, The question of Rose’s right to hold the office will now be tested. The su- preme court held that its action in ousting Rose rendered him ineligible at this time. Rose contends that, as he resigned before the supreme court acted in his case, the ouster proceed- ings against him were ineffective. MISSED THE EXPRESS CAR. Robbers Hold Up Imperial Limited on Canadian Pacific. Vancouver, B. C., May 10.—The Im- perial limited was held up on the ain line of the Canadian Pacific rail- way near Kamloops, 250 miles from here, early in the day. The robbers compelled the engineer to uncouple the mail car from the rest of the train and haul it a mile away, where they rifled it of .the registered letters. The robbers were under the impres- sion that the express packages were in the mafl car, but when they found that the express was in another car they had not nerve enough to go back for it and slipped away into the hills. The robbery occurred near a small station called Furrer, between Kam- loops and Ducks. Special officers have been sent out from Vancouver to pur- sue the robbers. The bandits made no attempt to interfere with the passen- [ T
