The Feature of the Decorations.
The choicest gems of the dollhouse shed
their fragrance from the tables, while the
gallery was fcstooned with smilax, behind
which mandolin orchestra discoursed the
sweet and subtle airs of Spanish land. The
China table service alternated in red and
yellow, the Spanish national colors-a deli
cate and at the same time novel tribute to
the nation that stood sponsor to the great
discoverer. But the feature of the decora-
tions that attracted the greatest attention
and was productive of the greatest enthus-
asm was the Administration building in

the middle of the hall Fronting it was a
miniature inlet and a grand canal, both
filled with water, and between them
lovely piece of green sward, hedged with
flowers. The miniature building itself was
illuminated from within by electric lights,
while a prismatic fountain tossed the
choicest of perfumes high in the air in hues

moments before President James w. Scott,
with Vice President Morton leaning on his

corridor and into the brilliantly lighted

rested at right angles. Covers were laid

failed yesterday with liabilities which may
reach 500, 900 or more. Charles Burkhal-
ter and John H. Burkhalter, who compose
the firm, made a general assignment
through Stern & Rushmore, attorneys, to
Charles II. Fancher, president of the Irving
National bank. They gave preferences ag'
gregating $3.50, 161 All the preferences are
for borrowed money. The partners of the
firm are cousins. Both live in New Jersey
Charles at East Orange and John II. at
Glen Ridge.
An Old-Established Firm.
The business was established in 1929, and
has passed through several generations and
various changes in style. Feb. 1, 1886, the
style was changed to c. Burkhalter & Co.,
composed of the present partners Charles
Burkhalter, of the present firm is a nephew
house. The partners have declared right
along that they We're worth $500. 600 over
and above all liabilities. Charles, the senior
partner, has been in poor health for six
months past, but has been able to attend to
business off and on.
Very Heavy Liabilities.
John III. Burkhalter was at the store yes
terday. He said: we preferred only
our confidential debts TO secure money
which we borrowed from our friends Be-
sides the preferences there are, should
think, about $50, 900 in notes out, and the
rest of our Indebtedness is for merchandise
Mr.. Burkhalter could not tell definitely
what the liabilities We're, but finally ad.
mitted that he thought they We're between
500 600 and 500, 900 The assets, he said,
aren ominally larger than the liabilities.
Creditors Are Much Excited.
The failure has caused a great deal of ex-
element among the creditors, and some
very severe criticism. The firm has always
stood we'll in trade circles, and its paper
sold well. On the strength of this reputa-
ton, it is said, the partners borrowed large
sums of money up to within day or tive
of their failure. They also bought goods
on credit this week. Their purchases were
made and borrowed money was obtained
fec:ly solvent.
May Ise Something Left.
y creditor said after interviewing John
II. Burkhalter that if the liabilities did not
reach 81 ,oe0oe0 there might be something
LETT for the unsecured creditors. He hoped
they would not exceed 500. 600 which Mr. [
Burkhalter put the limit. but he felt
quite sure that they would amount 10 |

LIBERTY is A SUCCESS.
Triumph of the Principles of the Ameri-
Republic.

The republic founded in the land which Co
lumbus discovered, the speaker said, had been
mistake. 1t had stood the test of a century s
trial 1t hal esta blished and guaranteed equal
rights to all; it had educated the people in com
mon schools supported by the people; it had
raised the largest armies of modern times
when its life was at stake, and at the successful
Termination of the war that army had melted
away AMI gone into the pursuits of eace. An
archy had no success with its do trines here,
and socialism took no root. Religion was abso-
lutely free; it was not supported by tax laid by
the state, but the United States was a Chris
tian country The world had been the gamer
by the establishment of this government;
wealth had been accumulated. but the coudi-
ton of the people illustrated the universal dis
tribution of the wealth. In everything that
makes existence a pleasure the U1ited States
offered advantages far beyond other lands.
Literature and intelligence fourished and the
demand for higher education taxed the re-
sources of the country. The press was free

England the MotherIand.
Edmund Burke, speaking in the British par
lament with prophetic voice, said: "A great
revolution has happened-a revolution made,
not by chopping and changing of power in any
of the existing states, but by the appearance of
q new state. of new species, in part of
the globe. 1t has made great change in all
the relations and balances and gravitations of
power the appearance of a new planet would
in the system of the solar world Thus the
humiliation of our successful revolt tempered
to the motherland by pride in the state created
by her children. If claim heritage in Ba-
con, Shakespeare, and Milton, we also acknowl-
edge that it was for liberties guaranteed Eng
lishmen by sacred charters our fathers tri-

CLUBS AND STONES
Resorted to by Desperate Strikers
at Duquesne
TO PREVENT MEN GOING TO WORE
The Arrival of The sixteenth Regiment Pats
a Stop to Further HostiIities -Geasral
strike situation

HOMESTEAD, Aug. THE moral suesion
of clubs and stones was adopted by a few
desperate strikers at Duquesne today.
Yesterday it became evident that break
was imminent, large number of strikers
having gone back to work Foreman
Mileslodee, of the mechanical department,
was ordered to report with thirty men
this morning. A number of the strikers
determined to stop them, and twenty men
went from Homestead to assist.
BY z o'clock this morning 300 men
gathered about the gate and as fast as the
boys arrived they were ordered home.
Foreman Mileslodge made some resistance
and was stoned and beaten. The deputy
sheriffs were hemmed in by the crowd and
unable to help him. Hugh Boyce, the
boss carpenter, managed to
RUN THE GAUNTLET
and got in safely though sharply chased.
Another man also managed TO get inside,
and then the strikers proposed to storm
the works.
A telegram was hastily dispatched to
Brigadier General Wiley. and the Six
teenth regiment was sent on q special
train.
AS soon as the soldiers marched up the
street, be strikers fell back. and further
violence ended. None OF the repairmen
would go to work this afternoon, however,
being too frightened.
Treasurer Curry of the Carnegie COM
pany says a majority of the old men at
Duquesne wish to go back to work.
Nothing new at Homestead.
