ROYAL LABOR COMMISSION.

After . Stormy Session the Chairman Clears
the Room.
LONDON, July Sat the meeting Of commit
tee "a Of the royal labor commission, which
took place today, there was a stormy exposition
Of views, which resulted In the court being
cleared by order of the chairman.
The excitement commenced when Mr..
Donovan. stevedore, was questioned in regard
to tho composition Of the shipping federation.
and, in reply. began a warmly worded speech,
feelings that he peremptoriiy silenced the
bold stevedore."
Ben Tillett, the well-known labor leader,
followed Mr.. Donovan, and be also commenced
the delivery of what seemed to be long speech
upon labor matters In general, when the Earl
Of Derby stopped him impatiently, saying:
Il cannot listen to all these details. Kindly
condense your remarks"
Mr.. Tillett was then permitted to resume
his remarks and pronounced himself as being
in favor Of the mlnieipalization OF the docks,
saying that the state municipalities ought to
cooperate In the work, erect workshops and
find employment for all.
The state, according to Mr.. Tillett, should
provide technical education for youths and
adults, and should find the necessaries of life
for all. Mr.. Tillett added that In his opinion,
if a lady would not work she ought not to eat.
THE state continued the labor leader,
SHOULD be the universal employer, and as it
WAS the recognized duty Of the state to teach
convicts trade, the state should at least ex-
tend the same benefit to the poor non-crimi-
nails"
Mr.. Tillett then began making serious charges
against certain persons, when the Earl Of
Derby, whose patience had long been upon the
point OF being exhausted, ordered the court to
be cleared

The Greatest Storm Known in the North
west in Twenty Years. .,.
CHICAGO. July "A dispe tch from st. Paul,
Mimi, says: The greatest hail storm known in
the northwestern twenty years passed over large
portion of North Dakota yesterday afternoon,
cutting down 10, 600 acres Of grain Just head
ing out in Ransom and Sergeant counties The
haiIstones were Of tremendous size and COW
cred the ground. No definite estimate OF the
loss can be made, but il is feared it will reach
at least S200, 900, and leave several hundred
farmers in destitute circumstances
CALLAwAy. NEB., July 3.-A terrific hail

COUNCILS HAVE THE POWER.


Witnesses Can Be subpoenaed to Testify
Before the Investigating Committee.
PHILADELPHIA, July 3-President Judge Al
iison Of the court Of common pleas this morn
ing handed down a decision of the court up
holding the authority of city councils to APP
point a committee vested with powers to sub
poena witnesses and place them under oath
before receiving their testimony.
The decision Of the court arose through q
suit in equity brought against Henry H. Yard,
who refused to be sworn or to testify before the
Keystone Bank investigating commi ttee. The
refusal OF Yard to be sworn and the subsequent
entering Of q suit by the city solicitor
to compel him to submit to being
sworn raised delicate question Of constitu-
tional law. Yard has been indicted by the
grand jury for criminal conspiracy with
the public funds. The contention of Yards
counsel in their arguments before the court of
common pleas was that city councils had
no authority to appoint a committee vested
with powers 70 compel citizens to appear be-
fore them and testify under oath, and that in
addition under the Constitution of the United
States every man is guaranteed the right to
answer no questions before a tribunal Of justice
that will tend to criminate himself.
The opinion Of the court in addition to
affirming the right of councils to appoint the
COMMITTEES was that Yard must appear before
that committee and submit himself to being
sworn, but that under the bill Of rights he could
refuse to answer any questions that he thought
would incriminate himself The remedy Of the
committee then il to appeal to the courts, sub
init 70 them the questions asked Yard and the
court will decide whether they are of nature
to incriminate him

The Waters Receded in the Morning, bu
Rose in the Afternoon

The Waters Receded in the Morning, but
Rose in the Afternoon.
Los ANGELES, CAL. June 3.-The desert lake
at Salton caused a surprise yesterday by the
fact that the water receded in the morning, but
commenced to rise again, showing that the
limit has not been reached. A dispatch re-
ceiyed from Salton yesterday afternoon said:
If the water comes from the Colorado river
there must now be enough between here and
the river to nearly fill this basin and most
likely reach the main line of the Southern
Pacific. All the fiat part of the basin 10 now
covered with water and the depth will increase
much faster. Section men are making effort
to save the railroad spur. but the water is very
hot and it is feared the men cannot endure it.
The water is warmest at the bottom. Two out
fits were started out by Superintendent Muir
of the Southern Pacific. one from salton and
the other from Ogilby. Both parties started
in wagons with q supply of water and pro-
visions and they will make an effort to locate
the exact spot where the water comes through
the sand hills from the Colorado river or New
river as the case may be.
The Colorado river is almost as high as 1t
was last winter on account of melting snow
in the mountains. The operator at Sslton tel
eRraphed last night that the water was rising
very slowly, but there was no danger Of it reach
take six months to do 20, and long before that
time it is believed the desert will be dry from
evaporation.
A reliable report from Salton states that the
boat sent out by the railroad company was
forced to return, they having Travelled twenty
five miles on the desert lake. The force Of the
current made further Roadway impossible.
The latest news received reports the water still
rising. The theory advanced that water now
running into the Salton basin is
caused by the barrier washed out
Pilot Knob is exploded by the fact that the
flood Of February this year carried twice the
amount OF water of that OF a month ago. and
would have run into the desert if an inlet ex-
isted Careful investigation proves that the
barrier between the Colorado and rim Of the
desert was only ridge of four feet. This was
ascertained in q survey made several years ago,
The Colorado river has been falling for over Q
week past, and is lower today than the same
day last year. II the water il running from
the gulf the amount must increase daily, as the
difference in the level is great
late dispatch from Salton says q strong
wind last night forced the north shore Of the
new lake back about 200 yards.

not helped his cause, as he and his friends last

their declaration that Mr.. Parnell was
