The crowd fis guess 1 can shake hands with CHICAGO, Bept. . —The marchers in the Mg centennial parade tomorrow night will b compelled to tramp over the route with- out a musical note to cheer them. The Musicians' union tonight positively refuse to take part In the parade or to hav anything whatever to do with the Centen- nial celebration if the Marine band of Washington s to play at the mass meet- g In the Auditorlum Thursday night, which is to be the final act of the celebra- tlon. The union declares that its constl- tution forbids its members having any- thing to do with an event in which “en« lsted men of the government, take part. The unjon insists that the Marine Wand Le withdrawn or the union will not furnish musie for the parade, or for any other part of the Centennial celebration. The committee of arrangements for the Centennial informed the union tonight that arrangpments for the Marine band would stand no matter what action was taken by the union and the union at once de- clded it could not recede from its posi- tion, 80 nforming the committee. Play- ing by the Marine band Thursday night will therefore be the only music of the celebration. It was not the intention of the committee to use the Marine band for -anything but the mass meeting ALLEGED CONE_HPT OF COURT of Six Oompa: Upon to Explal in Clreular.

It fs alleged thet the Chinese had pla- carded the dead walls of Chinatown, threatening any man, Chinese or white, who raised hand or volce in defense of the accused Chinaman.

Stimulants again had to be administered to Mr. Robinson. SIBERIA AT DISADVANTAGE Its Merchants Say They Cannot Com. pete in © with Western Enterprise, LONDON, Sept. 28.—-An Odessa dispatch to the Standard this morning, reports that a conference of Siberlan merchants and traders was recently held at Tomsk, Si- berfa, with the object of developing Russian commerce with China. The meeting ar- rived at unsatisfactory conclusions, the bulk of the evidence adduced proving that tically impossible for Russian products and manufacturers to compete successfully in China against those of western Kurope and the United States. The administration of the Siberian rafl- road has declared it impossible without a ruinous loss of revenue, to greatly reduce the freight rates. It is reported from Askhabud, capital of | Russian Trans-Casplan territory, that 2000 000 acres of cotton, wheat, barley and vege- tables In that district have been destroyed by locusts.

Excited Armenians made a demonstration fn front of the residence of the governor and stoned a dctachment of Cossacks who attempted to disperse them Shots from the crowd and from persons on the balconies and roofs of houses In the neighborhood were answered by volleys from the Cossacks. According to the official accounts, two Cossacks and rioter were killed, but the Armenians, the darkness, carried off a number wounded persons. Similar rioting on the part of the Armenians occurred recently near Elizabeth Pol and at Baku and Kars. POPE PREDICTS HIS FREEDOM in of ROME, Sept. 28.—According to the Tri- buna, Plus X, on recelving the abbott of the celebrated monastery of Monte Cassini, in Campania, sald: ‘‘We shall soon meet, most reverend father, at Mont Cassini.' Then, noting the effect that his words pro- duced—the impression that his holiness cinots—he added: “Pray, for all things are obtained by prayer.” The pope is also sald to have told the abbott of the Benedictine monastery at Cava Del Tirenne, that he himself would inaugurate the jubllee of the Immaculate Conception. Vi n at the Failr, ROME, Sept. 38.—The negotiations for the participation of the Vatican In the St Louis exposition are proceeding satisfac- torily.

COTTON SHORTS ARE PINCHED Pay HY Order to Cover TI | Contracts. Forced to Prices In NEW YORK, Sept. 28.—There was rush of September shorts to cover in the cotton market this morning and the price for that delivery rose and fell in a manner that recalled the earlier days of the bull | campalgn. Closing on Saturday at 1112 cents, it opened this morning at 1116 cents. Then it was forced up five and ten polnts until 12:06 cents was reached, a net gain of about a cent a pound, or mearly 300 on & trading contract 3f 100 bales, At this level the demand subsided somewhat and reacted to 11496 cents, the decline being almost as rapid and sensational as the up- ward movement, It was notice day for September, and, while notices of considerable cotton were {ssued, they were reported to be promptly stopped by a broker representing the New Orleans bull crowd, and they evidently folt sure of covering the entire outstanding laterest.

AS A RESULT DEALERS ARE DISQUIET Supply of Momey Sald teo Be Ade- auate, but Holders Are Walting to See What Wil Happen, NEW YORK, Sept. 28.—Wall street spent | another gloomy day which was devoted mostly to trying to pussle out where the unending stream of liquidation came from and what caused it. Information on the subject was extremely hard to get. It is pointed out that the great banks and cap- ttallsts were not heard of in warniug last yeur during the high range of prices, while they were sceking a profitable market for their holdings at that level. From this it s Inferred that.the buyers of a class which decides market movements would not be heard inciting others to buy it they were themsclves selling securities on such terms in the present market. There is, fact, rather a notable lack of public | quotations of authorities pointing to the cheapness of stocks which has been heard from time to time during the course of and at the price levels considerably above the present. But it is equally true that men seeking a market to realize ready money at forced sale of securities are not likely to miss any means of concealing their transactions. Source of Selling Orders Unknown. The source of selling orders in the pres- ent market is a baffiing mystery and infer- ences usually drawn from the personality of the brokers employed are almost in- variably at fault. The conditions which prompt the liquidation and the probable limits of its extent are consequently the | subject of grave disquiet and apprehen- ston. It was the faflure of stock jobbing oper- ations that brought the early selling, and losses reported were almost whoelly on paper, as the previous gains had been. | But later episodes represent the failure of enterprises In which extensive capital has been embarked at demonstrably unproduc- tive employment. Capital thus suuk is capital lost. Comptroller Ridgley's opinion expressed before the ' Maryland and Washington bankers that a ‘large percentage of the | loaning power has gone into unproductive interests”” formulates the dread of Wail street over the present situation. The present condition in the iron and steel industries, the high interest rates, especially on mercantile paper and the curtailment of production in other lines, caused the fear that overextension has spread to industrial and commercial lines, representing additional ‘‘unproductive in- to be followed by liquidation and contraction. The present course of the banks is ai- rected toward conserving commercial credits and to this end they are inex- orable to all promotions and financing pro- Jects. The miscarriage of the profects fs still the cause of most of the lquidation. While the great majority of Walk street' prominent men showed a decided disin- clination to talk for publication, inquiry among the very highest financial interests elicited statements that nothipg of a se- rious or untoward character is appre- hended. Opinion of Jacob H. Schiff, Jacob H. Schift of Kuhn, Loeh & Co., commenting upon the stock market and financial conditions, said: It is slmply a fever which must run its course, just as we had a buying fever | two véars ago and even last year. So the selling fever has now taken hold of the neople and reason counts for nothing. No matter what may be sald as to the causes which have brought about the pres- ent situation, prevailing conditions through- out the country do not justify the ex- isting great decline in substantial sequri- tles. The time will come when people Wil wonder how conditions such as we see now could have existed. It does not ¢ppear likely that the much feared money stringency will materialize. In fact, money is abundant now, only those | who control the supply are afraid in the incertain state of affairs to_part with it. The consequence is that we have a super- abundant supply of money on daily call, while time money cannot be had in large amounts. But this will change, especially as it is almost certain that with the ‘mability of corporations to finance their requirements, general business throughout the country, must, after a time, fall off, and when that | moment arrives we shall have a lar amount of funds seeking employment, These surplus funds will to some extent purposes, superabundant volume of cur- rency and we shall again witness an in- creased demand for securitfes. So that it | is not at all unlikely, though this may seem paradoxical. that when railroad earn- ings begin to decrease because of reduced general business the value of rallroad se- curities will begin to again increase. Carnegle on Easy Street. LONDON, Sept. 28.—The renewed heavy realization chiefly In the best Investment securities caused a demoralization on the stock market today, almost amounting to a panic. Consols once touched 87, being | a full polnt beneath the lowest reached during the Franco-German war. The heavy liquidation s said to he to the needs of American financlers speculators, Great apprehension wis regarding the position In Wall street and anxiety is entertained concerning the Stock exchange settlement here Wednes- day. There are rumors of probable failures | which in the best informed quarters, how- | ever, are sald to be exaggerated. The slump in United States Steel stock caused some anxiety as to its probable ef- fect on Andrew Carnegie's library endowe ments. It is stated, however, that Mr. Carnegle views the slump with the utmost complacency. An appeal to him today on this subject elicited the following response Mr. Carnegie never owned any second mortgage bonds or shares of the United States Steel trust. His bonds are first mortgage bonds covering all the property and are not quoted upon the Stock ex. change.

DO% o TO e 76 s 0 o7 64 ez HARMONY IS THE WATCHWORD McKinley Club gratulates Itself on the Smecess of Its Efforts in that Lime. XTI A special meeting of the MoKinley club was held at the Millard hotel night and plans were made for continuing and strengthening the harmony movement in- augurated by the club, The matter, after being discussed, was referred to the cam- paign committee with power to act, It is probable that the club will arrange for holding meetings in connection with the different ward clubs, and also for one monster mass meeting after the republican county convention, at which the leaders of | the factions heretofore existing in the re- publican party will be called on to make speeches, The editorial paragraph in The Bee reading: “The machine has been thrown into the scrap plle and the anti-machine has been sent to the machine shop for re- pairs,”” was referred to and endorsed as expressing in brief the sentiments of the club and the obltuary of the party fae- tions. This resolution was unanimously adopted: ‘Whereas, Through the effor of our president and_harmony committes the re- publicans of Douglas county have held a meelin%”lnr the purpose of promoting har- mony tween the rival factions of the party, and ‘Whereas, The meeting resulted to the good and welfare of the republican party of Douglas county, therefore be It Resolved, That we, the members of the McKinley club, congratulate our president and harmony committee, and heartily en- dorse their efforts to obliterate all factional lines within the party. Later In the evening were introduced and adopted: Resolved, That it is the sense and pur- pose of this club to actively support all the regular nominees of the republican party in the coming election. Res ved, That it s the duty of the members of this club not only to vote but to personally solieit and urge all republi- cans to come out and support the whole republican ticket, and also that it is the duty of the members of this club to make a special effort to get out the entire re- publican vote by securing the registering of all unregistered voters and having those who have changed their residences securc the required transfer m[')eng Resolved, That this club heartily en- dorses the enthusiastic meeting held in ‘Washington hall under the auspices of this club, and that we express our thanks to all_those who attended the meeting as well as to those who took an active part in it The next regular meeting of the club ‘will be on the night before the republican primaries, and the succeeding regular meeting on the ulght before the election. They will therefore probably be simply perfunctory meefings. Frank Crawford, chalrman of the program committee, an- nounced that he is already arranging for a serles of talks by prominent republicans of Nebraska and other states, which will be given at the regular meetings after the electlon. Candidates Tullls, Troup, Elgutter and Stockham were present in response to the fnvitation of the club to candidates, and in turn addressed the meeting. They con- | gratulated the club on the success which its efforts to promote harmony have so far met and expressed the hope that actual and permanent harmony will be brought about through the club. President Foster urged that as many new members as possible be secured and that every member from this time until the polls close, be an active worker for publican harmony and success. J. E. Van Glider and John W, spoke along ‘“harmony” lines.

MARIE, Mich, Sept. o Tonight the situation in the Canadian Soo, which has been the scens of rioting by the discharged employes of the Lake Su- perior company all day, I8 very grave No reinforcements of militia have arrived from outside and the only defcnse against the mob, which grows every hour, is a more or less demoralized police forcs and @ small company of militlamen. An as- sault upon the office bullding by the mob early this afternoon before the arrival on the ground of troops was successful and a mass of frensled rioters secured pow sesslon of the ground floor, destroving everything movable that came in their path. A crowd of the office staft with drawn revolvers prevented thelr galning access 1o the upper floors of the bullding. Every window and door in the bullding is smashed in. The arrival of troops on the ground, armed with ball cartridges. about 2 o'clock restored some semblance of order. The rioters then contented them- selves with throwing stones at the win- dows and threatening the soldiers, who prevented any approach toward the build- ings ¢ The greater number of the mob are ig: norant Itallans, Finns, Norweglans and Frenchmen, the latter, perhaps, the hard- eat of all to handle. All have been drink- ing more or less, although the bars this evening obeyed the order to close up. The mob is one that cannot be reasoned with und the man they'seem most anxious to get at is Mr. Coyne, the assistant man- ager, who in the absence of Mr. Shields, is in charge of the works. Mr. Coyne has discreetly kept out of sight all day. Company Supplies a Howse. Late this afternoon the leaders of the mob held a conference and demanded that the company house the men In their hotel and boarding house and feed them until the money for thelr wuges Is forthcoming. In order to appease the men this demand was granted and tho men Nave taken possession of the White house, a large boarding house operated by the company. Provisions are belug sent there and the nen procceded to oM b mouster mass meeting at this placs. AN M.m are making the most inflammable grave fears are entertained for the out- come after this meeting adjourns. An attempt I8 belng made to start the - street car system In the Canadlan Soo, which suspended operations this morning, after an attack had been made on ff. Inasmuch as most of the rioters were not in the street at the time the trip was made no disorder was encountered. It is estimated that there are 2,000 men In the Soo tonight and these are enforced by all’ the idle rabble in town. A train carrying 400 more woodsmen is expected to arrive tonight. The local police force is being strengthened by the addition of all the deputies who can Le found, each man being given a badge and a revolver and orders to use the latter when neces. sary. Considerable feeling has been aroused over the shooting of two IFren men by the police durlng the trouble this morning. Rioters claim that the police used their revolvers when it was unneces- Neither of the men was seriously hurt. The mob threatens an attack on the police headquarters with a view of ef- fecting the release of all men who have been arrested. Both this bullding and that occupied by the fire department Is guarded. The problem today developed is beyond the officials of the company. Apparently thelr only hope Is that the anger of the men will spend itself and the men will get out of town by degrees. ™ Meeting Quie The mass meeting of the men held tonight in the ““White house,” the big boarding house of ‘the company which has been turned over to the men, was unexpectediy quiet and orderly. An attempt was made to allay the passions of the men by in offer made by the Brotherhood of Woods- maintained among n to furnish an attorney free of charge, to collect all pay checks left in his bands. ‘The meeting broke up without any particular confusion or disorder. About 10:30 an alarm of fire was turned in from the pulp mills and the department re- sponded, but no blaze could be discovered The turning in of the alarm was evidently the work of some of the rough element who has gathered In large proportions tc help along the work of disorder. An effort was made late today to get a body of the rioters to cross the river to the American side and put the power house and strpet y out of commission, but it was not successful. On account of this rumor the local company of state troops wus mo. | bllized at the armory and some exira po licemen were put on duty. A battalion of regulars from Toronto, the Grenadiers, are expected to arrive at 7 o'clogk tomor- row morning and their coming is awalted with feverish impatience. Fallure to Pay Angers. A meeting of the employes of the cow pany was held today and its proceedings were sald t0 be of the most heated cha: acter. The particular grievauces Which seem to have inflamed the men to acts of disorder was the promises to pay today when the men who made the promises, the employes believe, knew they could hot be fulfilled. After this meeting adjourned the men went In @ body to the office of the company determined to get thelr money or “‘get satisfaction,” as they put it. On the a of the offices which were guarded by police, the following notice was posted: Oficers and employes of the Consolidate | Lake Superior company: The president and directors in New York have been u able to raise the money to pay today the wages and salaries now due the men and officers of the company. Advices tecived from New York this morning indieate that our president and directors have a plan to not only pay the men but to start up the works (hat seems to promise success. The plan has the endorsement and prom ised support of Bir Wiltrec Lautier, yre- mier of Canada. and the Hon. G. W, 'Ross, premier of Qntario, and it is expected to produce the essary money Inside of thirty davs. While we regret very much the Inabllity of the company (@ pay today. b
