HAZELToN. Pa, Dec. 4.-The strike
situation assumed new phase tonight
not anticipated by the Lehgh Valley
officials, and as result the latter are
greatly embarrassed. This was move
ment on the part Of telegraph operators,
which closed up most of the important
offices between Delano and Hazelton.
This includes the night dispatcher and

Tonight a meeting is being held by the

The situation now is ir the strikers favor
Most of the men who quit tonight are non-

that they will be able to prevent new men
taking their places.

representing the boards of the States of

Notwithstanding the alertness of the
Custom-house attaches and the revenue
officers considerable quantities of opium
have been smuggled into the city of late

officials have in consequence been some

the law-breakers, notwithstanding the

Most of the stuff, it was ascertained. is

not by the direct routes, being entered at
other ports and shipped hers by rail.
Yesterday the revenue agents made an
important capture of the drug. but were,
by reason of a little unfortunate haste, un-
able to secure the smnggler.
The officers were aware that much Of the
opium was marketed by the use of
"sweated" stamps-ihose taken from
boxes bought at sales of unclaimed lots of
this stuff which had been seized, and the

James LOAN and John Doe on five counts
with having conspired to defraud the
United States out of duty on opium by
smuggling it into the United States, be
resubmitted to the Grand Jury for further
investigation. District Attorney Murphy
also moved that the cases of Dunbar,
Blum, Jackling. Cardinell. Porter, Pad
dock. Linville. Kearney. Caro-, Patterson,
Garthorne. Ross. Berg, Lotan and Doe,
set for trial Wednesday, be continued. He
understood that certain of the parties
would demand separate trials, and the
Government desired further time to pre-
pare for a trial of the cases separately.
Judge Stott. representing ex-Collector
James Lotan, agreed to tie motion of the
District Attorney for a continuance of the
conspiracy cases. which were set for trial
Wednesday. The court asked that as
many Of these cases be tried together as
possible. and suggested the defendants be
divided into two classes, those who have
pleaded guilty or been convicted to form
one class and the remaining defendants
the other class. Judge St0tt asked that
the Gu st0m- house officers be tried together
and separate from The other defendants.
The matter was left undecided without
the cases being set for trial.
1t is understood the Government intends
to return another indictment. containing
more specific charges against the defend
ants, and also that several other persons
will be included.

bill will cause either general closing of
all sugar refineries In the eastern district
of Brooklyn or a big reduction in the
wages of employees. A. j. M0llenhaner,
an officer of the Mollenhauer Sugar
Refining Company of Brooklyn. whose re-
finery was only recently completed at a
cost Of S1.o00,000. spoke forcibiy yesterday
of the injurious effect of the new tariff bill
should it become law.
He said: Between 30, 900 and 45, 600 har-
rels of sugar are used daily in the United
States. which shows how important the
sugar industry is.
IF the Wilson bill becomes a law this
country will become the dumping ground
for the reineries of all other countries,
and we cannot compete with them unless
we reduce our prices, and to reduce the
price of sugar we would have to cut
wages"
According to Mollenhauer. there are be-
tween 800 and 6000 men employed in the
different reineries along the Williamsburg
water front, and nearly all of them are
heads of families. This would indicate
that at least 10000 persons will be affected
if the refineries in Brooklyn close.

tile latter says: 81 agree with Nansen's

To facilitate the search NanseD should

PERSONAL LIBERTY.
The Governor of Kansas Has Nulli-
fled the Vaprancy Laws.

KANSAS CITY. Dec. A Topeka
special says: Governor Lewelling has
issued an extraordinary circular ad-
dressed to all Boards of Police Commits
sioners in Kansas which practically
renders nugatory all vagrant laws.
He criticizes the manner in which exist
ing laws are enforced upon the unem-
ployed with regard to their being ordered
TO leave town and move on.
This, he says, is a violation of the right
of personal liberty guaranteed by the
constitution of the United States. and
there is no power in legislative or city
councils to deprive people of this right.
He regards the practice of compelling
vagrants to work out fines in houses OF
correction as in fragrant violation of con-
stitutonal prohibition. and calls on P olice
Commissioners to carry out the spirit OF
these suggestions.

PERIER'S POLICY.

PARIS. Dec. q. Casimir Perier in
the announcement of the new Min
istrv's policy said that the Gov
ernment would consider tho creation of
workmen's provident fund and would
deal with the question in assemblies. The
Govern meht, he insisted, would under
take nothing which might tend toward
the separation of church and state,
unless the country demanded ii, and would
reject all proposals for revision of the
constitution.
In the Chamber of Deputies the decla-
ration of Casimir-Perier's Capnet policy
was warmly appiauded, except from the
socialist benches.
The general discussion of the motion of
NJ. GrouSsOt for general amnesty was
closed and the Chamber, by vote of 257
to 226. refused to discuss the motion.
1t will thus be seen that the new Gov
ernment only had majority of 81 in the
