STRIKE 15 SPREADIG Iron Ore Handlers at Two Har- _"bors, Minn., Walk Out., i [ INDUSTRY MAY BE TIED} UP Many Mines Have Been Compelled to Close, Rallroad Crews Have Been Laid Off and Traffic on the Great Lakes s Threatened. Duluth, July 18.—The ore traffic on the Great Lakes wlll be tied up, half of the mines on the great Mesaba range closed down and the business of the two range rallroads practically suspended by the strike of the labor- ers on the ore docks at Duluth and Two Harbors, which is now in prog- ress, unless a settlement is reached at once. . The Duluth men,‘to the number of 780, have been out for two days and the Two Harbors men followed them at midnight. The men ask an increase of 25 centg a day, pleading the increased cost of living. The company claims that it had already reached an agreement with the men by which they were granted an increase and agreed to work during the remainder of the year. No ore has been shipped from Du- luth since Saturday night. The train crews have been laid off and the open pit mines where mining is done by steamshovels are closed down. The underground mines are still being worked, the ore being placed in stock plles. If the strilo continues it will affect thousands of men. The traln crews, vessel crews and mine workers will all suffer from enforced idleness. Superfor, Wis., July 18.—The strike of the dock workmen at Duluth and Two Harbors ore docks threatens to spread to the Allouez docks here also. If it does the marine Interests will be hard hit. At present the Allouez docks are taking care of many of the boats turned away from the other ore docks, but if the men succeed in get- ting the Superior crews to go out the ore carrlers will be left without car- goes. It will result in the tying up of many of them in the event of a walkout. PREPARING FOR A STRIKE Cots Placed In Western Union Office at New York. New York, July 18.—Officlals of the Western Union Telegraph company are apparently preparing for a strike of telegraphers by placing beds in the offices of the main building at 195 Broadway. Fifty wooden cots and 100 mattresses have been carried into the building and fifty more cots have been ordered. Robert C. Clowry, president of the Western Union, declined to talk of the move. . Joseph F. Ahearn, president of the operators’ local union, when informed of the fact, said he would appeal to the health board. “The placing of the cots in the Western Unlon building,” he said, “Is a violation of the hotel and lodging- house laws. Through our counsel we will enter a complaint to the health commissioner at once. The health authorities would not permit it in Chicago and they cannot permit it in New York.” The move, the operators’ officials were Inclined to belleve, Indicated that the telegraph company would re- fuse to arbitrate the demands of the men and that the \visit of United States Labor Commissioner Neill to the Pacific coast to bring about peace would be in vain. Small Going to Chicago. Oakland, Cal, July 18.—After a meeting of the telegraphers in West Oakland President Small said: “I ex- pect to leave Oakland within the next forty-eight hours for Chicago. I will recommend that our executive board meet in that city next Tuesday. The insinuation that frictlon exists be- tween the officers of the union is non- sense.” TARIFF REVISION MUST WAIT Decision Reached at Conference at Oyster Bay. Oyster Bay, L. I, July 18.—Presi- dent Roosevelt, Senator Hopkins of Illinois and H. E.’Mlles, representing the Wisconsin Tariff Revision league, discussed the subject of tariff revision during luncheon at Sagamore Hill Senator Hopkins, on leaving Oyster Bay, sald that the conclusion was reached that no tarift revision .should be undertaken until after the next presidential election. “It would be suicidal to the Repub- lHean party,” the senator added, “to undertake a revision of the tarift dur- _—_% g the mext congress. After the pres. idential election I belleve it will be the duty of the Republican party to revise the tariff and that it will be done.” Mr. Hopkins remarked that he be- Heved such an argument would appeal to and' be accepted- by the Republican revislonists in all parts of the country. Fourteen Persons Injured. Butler, Pa., July 18.—Fourteen per- sons were Injured, sever serlously, in A street cav collision on the lines of the Butler passenser rallway at the Standard sttel car works' terminal at Lyndora, a suburh cf this place.

Madison, Wis., July 18.—The 1907 sesslon of the Wisconsin leglslature, which has just adjourned, was &0 longest of any in the history of the state. Some of the bills which were enacted into law are of more farreach- ing Importance than any measures which have been; considered for years heretofore, ' One of the most important is the “public utility” measure, which gives the rallroad rate commission author- ity to regulate and control every pub- lic service corporation in the state. -It is sald to be the most comprehensive and drastic law of its kind ever enact- ed and its enforcement will be watched with keen interest. Among other bills passed of great importance were the 2-cent rallway fare bill and the life insurance meas- ures. The rate bill was vigorously fought by the railroad commission, notwithstanding which it becomes ef- fective Aug. 15. The life insurance measures were fought by the home company—the Northwestern Mutual—as well as by the large Eastern companles., After some concessions were made on both sldes the two more Important meas- ures were passed. One regulates the mode of electing directors of life in- surance companies, practically prohib- iting proxy voting, and the other puts a limitation upon the expense charges in policies.

Von. In Germany “von” implies nobility, and all persons who belong to the no- bility prefix “von” to their names with- out any exception. Persons who do not belong to the nobility cannot have the right to put “von” before their names. A man who is knighted for some reason, however, has the same, right to put “von” before his family name as a person of anclent noblility. For instance, when Alexander Hum. boldt was knighted he became Alex- ander von Humboldt. All his descend- ants, male and female, take the prefix, g Haven of Rest. It 18 desirable that each sex should occasionally escape from the other.
