SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM e ALL INVITATIONS DECLINED Secretary Taft Will Not Visit " Any European Ruler. ‘Washington, Nov.: \.—There are in- dlcations that Secretary Taft's de- cislon to recur to his original itinerary and sail from Manila for Vladivostok on his homeward journey next Mon- day, Instead of the week following as he suggested to the president, was after all based upon International and not domestic consideration, Soon after it had become officlally known that he intended to return to America by way of Siberia and Eu- rope the foreign offices of various countries which he would probably traverse on his way to the Atlantic seaboard began to interest themselves in his itinerary. Diplomatic represen- tatives of some European governments have already been making inquiries at ‘Washington as to the itinerary pre- liminary to extending to him formal invitations to their various capitals. 1t has been found quite impossible for an official of his high rank to visit one European country as the guest of the sovereign without visiting the capitals of other countries through which he must pass on his homeward Journey. It Is believed here that a declaration of the administration that acceptance of invitations from these capitals would be inexpedient has led to the change in Secretary Taft's plans, which will then enable him to consistently decline all of them, for the German emperor not being in Ber- lin when the secretary reaches that city the secretary will not be under the necessity of making a beginning in that respect. KILLED BY BOY’S PRANK. Austrian Workman at Duluth Steps on Live Wire. Duluth, Nov. .—“To make the Aus- trlans jump,” was the ambition of several small boys in West Duluth and, securing a piece of hay wire, they attached it to an electric light wire and strung it in front of an Aus- trian boarding house. Yova Mehis, the first man to approach, stepped on it and was instantly killed. Three boys are under arrest. They are Ar- thur Emberg, Herbert Dalter and George Latartel, ranging from twelve to fourteen years of age.

New York, Nov. . .—The police have thrown a dragnet over New York and Railroad Employes of the United Kingdom Ordered Ont. : RESULT WILL BE SERIOUS Qeneral Tieup Would Not Only Para- lyze Industry, but Scon Would Starve Out the Inhabitants of All the Interior Citles. London, Nov. '.—The executive | committee of the Amalgamated Soci- ety of Rallway Servants has adopted & resolution to call a general strike. The resolution says: “The conference of representatives of the railway men of England, Ire- land, Scotland and Wales, realizing the grave responsibility involved in the declaration of a national railway strike, regrets that the arbitrary re- fusal of the rallway companies to meet the accredited representatives of the men, even to discuss a settle- ment by friendly negotiations, leaves no other course open but to carry out the mandate of our members, as dis- closed {n the result of the ballot, and Wwe therefore recommend that the ex- ecutive commiftes issue notice to the |. papers and to the whole railway serv- 1ce.” Riobard Bell, M. P, general secre- tary of the Amalgamated Soclety of Rallway Bervants and leader of the strike movement, said as to the effect of the resolution: “It means all that it says. Not only the members of the society but every man engaged in the railway service in the United Kingdom will get mno- tice. We took the opinion of our members and, knowing that and knowing also that thousands of men outside the soclety are in sympathy with us, we resolved to call on every one to come out.” Dispute of Long Standing. The British railway employes and the companies have been at logger- heads for some time on the question of recogumition of the Amalgamated Boolety of Rallway Servants and a new soale of wages and hours and finally it was decided by the em- ployes to reach a decision by ballot of the members of the society. Richard Bell, M. P., general secre- tary of the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants, in a recent address to a large body of railway men at Cardiff, said that a strike would be a terrible calamity and that the society intended to exhaust every means to reach a peacsful solution of the trou- ble. The council of the Rallway Com- penies’ association, in its reply to the men, pointed out that the council had no power to appoint representatives to meet the delegates of the unioms, as proposed, and discuss questions which affected the relations between individ- ual companies and their employes. The council, however, added that its members individually were unani- monsly of the opinion that no advan- tage could result from any meeting until the result of the balloting on the question of a general strike would he known. The seriousness of a rallway strike in the Unlted Kingdom is difficult to overestimate. It not only will para- lyze the industries, but soon will starve out the inhabitants of all the interfor ecities of England, where there are only a few days’ food sup- plfes on hand. ONLY TWO HUNDRED KILLED Latest Estimate of Viotims of Kara- tagh Disaster. New Bokhara, Turkestan, Nov. i— The firat reports of the catastrophe at Karatagh were exaggerated. Instead of 15,000 persons being killed only about 200 lives were lost. Most of these perished under the landslide, which buried 400 of the 600 houses of the town. Karatagh is situated in a small am- phitheater among lofty hills, the Kara- tagh mountain hanging over it on one slde and a river flowing on the other. At the height of the recent earthquake a great section of the mountain broke away and slid upon the town. Houses there were already falling on all sides from the violence of the earthquake and many of the luckless inhabitants, unable to escape through the narrow streets encumbered by debris, were caught and buried. No bullding in the town was left standing, the earth- quake levelling them all to their foundations. All the survivors were without shelter and a relief expedition ‘with supplies has left New Bokhara for the scene of the disaster. Nebraska Rallroads Enjoined. Omaha, Nov. .—An Injunction has been issued by Judge W. H. Munger in the United States court at Omaha against all railroads doing business in this state preventing 'the rallroads from putting in effect an arbitrary teconsignment charge of $5 per car on lumber and coal. The order was made upon application of lumber and coal dealers in Omaha. Hallowe'en Celebrators Fined. Pittsburg, Nov. .—More than 200 persons, a great number of them wo- men, were glven hearings in the po- lce court as a result of celebrating Hallowe’en. The charges were disor- derly conduct; drunkenness and vio- lating a city ordinance. The fines im- posed by pollce magistrates were from $3 or forty-eight hours in jaill to $10 or ten days in jail 8ale of Minn, Timber. St. Paul, Nov. |,—The g als- posed of approximately 26,000,000 tedt of timber at the annual gale held at the state capitol.

Majestic on Wednesday and a wireless telegram has been sent to the captain of the ship asking him to have the actor held by the English police if he is aboard the vessel. Search also is being ‘made by the Children’s soci- ety and the police for Della MacKen- zie, one of the girls whose stories re- sulted in Hitchcock’s indictment. It is learned that Miss MacKenzie left her home Oct. 1 and that she had been seen in the company of the actor shortly before his disappearance, ENTIRE CREW PERISHED Russian Mutineers Not Killed Jump Into the Sea. St. Petersburg, Nov. i—According to the official report of the recent mutinous outbreak of sailors at Vladi- vostok the crews of three torpedo boat destroyers, the Skory, Serdity and Trevotshny, mutinied, hoisted the red flag and shelled the port, doing con- siderable damage to buildings and kill- ing some soldiers and civilians. The 3kory, on board of which were three revolutionary agitators, including one woman, took the lead in the mutiny, the crew rising at the instance of the agitators, killing the commander of the boat and wounding the other offi- cers, who were overpowered and con- fined below decks. The fire of the re- bellious torpedo boat destroyers was answered by the batteries ashore and from the gunboat Mandjour and the torpedo hoat destroyers Grosovoy, Smely and others. They surrounded the Skory and poured a raking fire into her, which battered her to pieces, exploded her two boilers and caused fire to break out on hoard. Nearly all the mutineers of the Skory were killed on the vessel. The three or four sur- vivors threw themselves into fhe sea. The mutiny on board the Trevotshny was quelled by her own crew after six of the mutineers had been killed and six wounded. General Count Unterberger, com- ARE YOU WRETGHED IN BAD WEATHER? Kceping the Kidneys well Has Kept Many Bemidji People Well. Many Bemidji people find that bad weather brings on a dull pain in the back, or rheumatic aching, neuralgia, nervousness, irritability and weakness. If, when you get or take cold, it “settles on the kidneys,” and there is a shivery, chilly sensa- tion in the back, it shows kidney weakness, which is often the begin- ning of disease. Doan’s Kidney Pills should be used persistently until the chilly feeling is gone, and the flow of urine is natural. Doan’s Kidney Pills have saved Bemidji people much suffering. Mrs. L. Kane, living at 615 Fourth St., Bemidji, Minn., says: “I have been a sufferer ‘from kidney com- vlaint for a number of years. Doan’s Kidney Pills have given me the greatest relief and I am willing to have my name used as I am con- fident anyone using them will receive great benefit. My trouble seemed to be of a dropsical nature and I have suffered much from rheumatic pains. My system seemed to be filled with uric acid and I felt very miserable indeed. I procured Doan’s Kidney Pills at the Owl Drug Store, used them carefully as directed and derived great benefits. For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

There is reason to believe an under- standing was reached by which the steel trade will be saved from ruinous competition, which has been threat- ened. The notable weakness of steel billets, it is said, will also soon be a thing of the past. Bechtel Is a Free Man. Minneapolis, Nov. ).—William F. Bechtel, indicted insurance man, who was convicted once and acquitted once of grand larceny in the first degres, is free from charge of crime. On motion | of John F. Dahl, assistant county at- torney, Judge John Day Smith nolled the indictments against Bechtel, thus bringing to a close the history of the Minneapolis insurance investigation, Bechtel was recently granted a new trial because of the improper conduct of the deputy sheriff in charge of the Jury that convicted him. Bank WIIl Lose Little. Akron, 0., Nov. .—Joseph Dangel, president of the Dollar Savings bank, has been appointed receiver of that Institution in consequence of the sui- cide of Fred A.

Insanity Is Thaw’s Defense. New York, Nov. .—Announcement 1s made that insanity is to be the plea in the defense of Harry Kendall Thaw, whose second trial for the slaying of Stanford White will begin on Dec. 2 next. Martin W. Littleton, chief coun- sel for Thaw, it is stated, has not adopted this course as merely a theory on which to conduct a successful de- fense, but because he feels certain of the unsound mental condition of his client. ECONOMY THE POLICY. Pennsylvania Directors Decide to Re- trench, Philadelphia, Nov, —Declaring that the outlook for raising new cap- ital next year is unsatisfactory the directors of the Pennsylvania Rail- road company have decided to re- trench and after their meeting, at which they declared the usual semi- annual dividend of 3% per cent, they gave out a statement that economy would be the policy of the great cor- poration during 1908. The announce- ment came somewhat as a surprise in view of the statement issued from President McCrea’s office- Wednesday that the present earnings of the com- pany are 11 per cent greater than they were at the same period last year. It is learned that the statement for the six months out of which the semi- annual dividend will be pald shows a net surplus after all charges and divi- dends of more than $8,500,000.
