Those Who Struck With Them. | TORONTO, Ont., June 10.—The Interna- | tlonal Machinists’ Association in conven- | tion to-day decided to extend financial | ald to non-union men who went out with members of the sssociation. President O’Connell stated that officials were not restricted as to the amount non-union men should receive, but be added that in any event it would be sufficient to induce them to remain in ths fight to the end. Since May 20 over $46,006 has been dis- tributed among strikers, and as vet no ;exu!ar system of bencfits has gore into orce. A resolution was passed asking the American Federation of Labor to levy an assessmer:t, as provided for in their con- stituticn, to provide funds for the strik- ers. In the event of a long-drawn-out fight an appeal for aid will also be made to the trade > nizations of Great Brit- ain, who were sted by the machinists in_their struggle for an eight-hour day. Regarding the question of finances Pres- ident O'Connell said that a_special strike | fund amounting to over §150,000 was still SALINA, Kans., June 10.—Professor | Frank D. Tubbs, recently removed from the chair of natural science in the Wes- an University for alleged heresy, said to-day of his case: 1 knew nothing of the movement to oust me until the thing was actually done.

W., WASHINGTON, June 10.—There is fresh trouble in Korea for Americans, and the protected cruiser New Orleans has been sent to ook after the interests of citizens of the United States. This is inconsequence of information sent by in consequence of information sent by | A cable message was recelved at the Navy Department to-day from Captain Sperry, commanding the New Orleans, announcing his departure from Chefu for Chemulpo. The visit of the New Orleans to Korean waters will be the first paid by an American warship in many months. Recently Mr. Allen cabled the State De- partment that American interests would be endangered if McLevy Brown, the financlal expert of Korean customs. were removed, and he protested against his re- moval. Mr. Brown is still in office, but ance of an Amerfean warship at Chemulpo will undoubtedly _impress the Government of the Hermit Kingdom. Additional information received in Washington throws further light upon the attitude of Mr. Brown. In order to meet interest on the Japanese loan, ac- cording to these later reporis, Mr. Brown without consulting the Government made preparations for floating an English loan for $1,000,000. The Government de- clined to sanction the loan and took measures contemplating Mr. Browr’s re- moval. The order for the loan was re- voked, and a loan of the required amount was placed with a French bank. The in- fluence of Great Britain and Japan and the attitude of the United States Minister resulted in Brown's restoration. Emphatic denial is given the reports that M. Paploff, the Russian Minister, urged Korea to remove Brown. On the other hand. it is known that under his instructions he was to refrain from med- dling in any matters which did not affect | Russian interests. There are very large mining interests In Korea. the mines be- ing owned chiefly by T. Sloat Fassett of New York.

Porter, speaking to-day before the Chesterfield Chamber of Commerce on the ‘‘Epidemic of Industrial Pessimism in the United Kingdom,” said: “It Is extremely doubtful whether the United States is preparcd now to compete in the markets of the world in manufac- tures except in iron and steel machinery and the coarser grades of cotton goods. The tariff indicates that American econo- mists and statesmen do not belfeve the United States is yet able to take an in- Britain.” Mr. Porter expressed the opinion that Great Britain’s backwardness in electrical science was ‘‘due more to absurd restric- tions and laws than to 12~k of enterprise,” and he said that Great Britain needs “bracing up in new, not old, industrial problems.” “Those that argue that Great Britain’s commercial supremacy is at an end be- cause the value of American exports or the total of the foreign commerce of the United States exceeds Great Britain's for one year,” continuer Mr. Porter ‘‘might find the argument upset by the first bad harvest. Many complicated economic problems must be faceu in the United Statec. The magnitude of American un- dertaking may be impressive, but these have corresponding dangers. In spite of European mutterings there is littie likeli- hood of a combined European tariff war against the United States, because the nations concerned are so hopelessly in- volved in tariff conflicts between them- selves. Great Britain's free trade policy may have injured her home industries, but it has strengthened her foreign trade. On_the other hand, the United States is finding considerable difficulty, both at home and abroad, in negotiating commer- cial treaties.” L CAPTAIN J. M.

NEW YORK, June 10.—The World has the following from St. Petersburg: Sen- ator Beveridge has been conferring with the Russian Forelgn Ministry relative to concesslons for steamship service be- tween Vladivostok or Port Arthur and some port on the Puacific coast of the United States. He found the Russian Government already prepared to open up this route by starting a line of steamers between Vladivostok and San Franclsco for carrying trans-Pacific malls in con- nection with the Trans-Siberian Rallway, which will be completed by the end of this year, it is thought. Two steamers, the Manchuria and Mon- golia, each 345 feet long, of 5000 tons bur- den, 4075 horsepower and 16 knots speed. are building at Trieste, Austria, for the East China Rallway.Company, which al- ready has a fleet of twenty-elght steam- ers for the Yellow Sea traffic. | The Manchuria has already been launched and will be delivered to the Russian Commissioners in July. The Mongolia will be finished in the autumn. The opening of the new service has been fixed for December. The passage between Vladivostok and San Francisco is ex- pected to occupy twelve days. The Trieste Ship Building Company has Just signed a further contract with the Commissioners of the Russlan Govern- ment for the construction of two other steamers of 6000 tons and 400 feet long for the same service.

Members of the Hull (Massachu- setts) Yacht Club committee said to-day that the accident to the Shamrock IL with the postponement of the America's cup race, would place the North Shore races too late in the fali. It was pro- posed to-day that Mr. Lawson should of- fer his $1000 cup for a special race at the time of the series off Newport. —_— Murdered in Jail.

On a certain public occasion in Berlin a year ago Mr. Stern felt aggrieved at the tone of speeches made by two eminent Americans who were present.
