ONE FATAL HALF-HOUR
Would Plunge Us Into War
With England.

LONDON, Jan. 6.-Sir Edward Clarke,
solicitor-general, speaking at Plymouth
tonight. said, with reference to the
Behring sea dispute, that Lord Sails
bury was only asserting doctrine
laid down by the United States gov
erment years ago, namely, that no ma
ton could claim sovereignty over the
open sea. Hostilities between England
and the United States, said Sir Edward,
would shock the conscience OF the
world, and even the contemplation of
such hostilities would be an outrage
upon civilization and humanity.
at is to be hoped that Lord Sails
bury's offer will he accepted; but if an
English vessel is seized on the high
seas, and violence is used toward Brit
ish subjects, one fatal half hour would
put 1t beyond the power of the two
countries to settle the difficulty by ar
bitratiou."

the theory III the case or not, the oppor-

have been improved. The process is not
difficult to comprehend. Silver bullion
is now in the neighborhood of S1.O3 per
ounce. When the government was
required to become large purchaser
it was much lower, perhaps about 80
cents. In the speculative period it went

THE OFFICIAL PAPER.

By practically unanimous vote OF
the council last night, the DAILY GLOBE
was chosen the official paper of the city
of St. Paul for the ensuing term. The
vote was an expression Of confidence IN
the GLOBE and a recognition of its de-
votion to the interests and welfare OF
st. Paul for which we cannot but feel
grateful. While warning upon no other
city, and while approaching the fact
that the interests of the Northwest are
identical, the GLOBE comedies no rival
in its jealous championship of st. Paul,
and it CONSTITUTES the action of the coun-
Gil as a recognition of that answering
loyalty. In behalf of its army of read
ers-by far the major portion of st.
Paul-the GLOBE returns thanks for the
compliment extended it.

FIGHTING A TRUST.
North Dakota's Indignation al
the Harvester Combination.
Special to the Globe

Special to the Globe.
Is FARGO, n. D.. Jan. 6.-The news of the
formation OF the American Harvester COM
pany with headquarters in Chicago, was re-
ceived in this city with considerable dlstrust at
lis inception, but very smooth and seemingly
plausible explanation made by its managers
at the time partially restored confidence in
tile scheme. But upon an examination of
one of the contracts of the new combination
it)is discovered that the American Harvester
company is nothing more nor less than a
gigantic machinery trust at the head OF which
is a company which has heretofore con-
trolled only the Mccormick machinery. The
assertion has been made that the prices of
machinery would not be advanced by the
new concern. Contracts show that the price
of harvesters will be advanced $50 in the
Western states and S25 i'll the Eastern and
Middle states. This is $40 discrimination
against the Western, or principal wheat
producing sections. Further than this, by
the terms OF the lease no extras will be fur
nished purchasers of machines against whom
there is due and overdue paper. In this Sec
ton there is over S3.000.OO0 of paper due
various machinery firms, all of which,
according to the new deal, must
be taken up before other machinery or
extras to present machines can be obtained.
The movement was inaugurated here to-day,
headed by the most influential farmers IN
. the Red River valley looking to the forming
of combination against the carrying out of
the terms in contracts. The best legal ad-
vice in the West will be obtained. and when
the matter is taken to the courts an endeavor
will be made TO have existing contracts an
nulled because of failure of the new concern
to carry out terms in supplying of extras and
other provisions thereof. A bill is now being
prepared under advice of leading attorneys
of this state, looking to the passing of such
legislation as will have n tendency to meet

GLASGOW, Jan. 6.--The disturbances

them by the railroad companies have
not yet ceased, in spite of the presence
On the scene of the eyictions of
large forces of police, backed up
by the troops. Serious rioting
was resumed to-day at Coatbridge
about nine miles from here, On the
Menkland canal, the chief center of the
iron manufacture in Scotland. The pO-
lice anu troops, who have now been al
most continuously on duty for forty
eight hours, passed weariSome night,
as the strikers, now driven to extreme
desperation, are making the widest
threats. However, the strikers practically
abStained from violence through the
night, but this morning they mustered
at an early hour abut the dormitory at
Coatsbridge, occupied by the non-union
men who have been employed in place
of the strikers. After pelting the build
ing with stones the rioters made
a rush forward and Stormed it
in the most approved fashion. The
police on duty at that spot made a gall
ant defense, using their batons freely,
and charging the strikers III spite of
showers of stones hurled at them on
all sides. During the conflict num-
Der of the police and still greater
number of the strikers were more or
less seriously injured. The rio
ters were finally repulsed just
as strong reinfOrcements of police and
troops were being sent to the scene of
the collision. After the first excite
ment by the collision between the po-
lice and the rioters at Coatsbridge had
subsidized the police succeeded in
placing under lock and key
six prisoners captured during the
fray. The police could have arrested
many more of the rioters had they felt
so inclined. but they contented them
selves with making prisoners of six of
the ringleaders, or most vio-
lent members of the mob of
strikers. 1t is thought that the
object of the strikers in at
lacking the dormitOry Of the non-union
men at such an early hour was to pre-
vent the men who have taken the strik-
ers' places from going to work this
morning. The majority OF the nen-
union men are now at work unaer po-
lice protection, where such precaution
is found necessary.
