its destination.

the situation was explained, and the
necessity for prompt action plainly seen.
The cab was waiting outside and Mar
gsret ran upstairs to put on her bonnet.
and came back looking so sweet and
blushing so prettily that James Peruke
felt a tremulous thrill run down his
spinal column and come out at the tips
OF his fingers and toes.
And now a cloud began to settle over
the household and person OF Solomon
Boggs. Day after day went by, yet
James-James who was to marry Eliza
beth--did not come. The old gloom and
melancholy settled over everything. Pen
nyboy renewed his purpose OF going into
the tobacco business and began TO make
inquiries for a suitable shop.
Again and again did Mr.. Boggs go up
TO the Office OF the seventeenth inspector
of the royal inkstand, but an innexible
attendant said that Mr. Peruke was en-
gagged and could not be interrupted under
any circumstances. The first functionary
was in despair.
Finally The Daily Termagent came
out with a graphic account Of a Eor-
geous reception given by the wife OF the
Hon. James Peruke. at which noble per-
sous were present In great numbers.

In a secluded street where lodgings

figure, and where the principal features
OF the landscape consisted Of washed

SCOT emanating from the chimneys. lived
James Peruke.
Right across the court from James
Peruke lived Margaret Mullins, and be-
tween them there existed a romantic
feeling that belonged to sylvan groves
and babbling brooks, and was entirely
out Of place In such a locality.
James Peruke belonged to that I'M
fortunate class OF persons who are poor,
but proud. lie held a very inferior po-
sition In the office Of the Honorable the
Secretary OF the Coastwlse Trade, where
he consclentiously performed the tasks
OF nineteen high officials, who OH their
parts lent Il tone Of dignity 10 the office.
But tho love that existed between
James and Margaret was not bread
and butter sentiment, the lack OF these
clements indeed being the only draw
back TO it's happy contamination. IL
was an affection that had been cement
ed by years OF close companionship
and toll, and which babe fair to live
on forever In spite of the sings and
arraws OF outrageous fortune. Often
and often had impossible schemes for
getting along in the world been pro-
posed by James, and others equally Inn
possible by Margaret, but their very
impossibility rendered them fruitless,

they were, and not until this A. r. q.

meeting were in full accord with the
American Railway Union and agreed to
stand by the union to the end.
President Debs said at the close of the
meeting that the American Railway Union
had made its last overures to the general
managers. 1t had gone more than half
way. If the present proposition was
ignored or rejected the strike would be
renewed with greater force and continued
until the railway people gave in. The
people had been appealing TO the railway
union TO stop the strike. Hereafter they
must appeal to the railway managers.
The burden of further trouble and loss OF
business must rest on their shoulders.
Mr.. Debs added there had been no re-
Taxation of the strike. 1t is on in force
and would remain so until an affirmative
answer comes from the general managers.
If such an answer were received the strike
would end in twenty minutes. He init
mated that the union bad reserve forces
which it could call into action and that
they would be felt in their full strength If
necessary. He said the labor unions were
patiently waiting to be called upon TO join
in a sympathetic strike and declared that
twelve or fifteen were to-day induced to
wait until an answer had been received
from the general managers.

Judge 0rosscup Will Hold Them to a

CHICAGO. July 13.-Judge Grosscup TO-
day called the Federal Grand Jury before
him for supplemental instructions direct
ing an investigation OF the railway man
ayers. After hearing a statement from the
foreman that the jurors had decided to ad-
journ until Tuesday. in order to return to
their homes for Sunday, and giving con-
sent to the adjournment, the court said:
ut is my duty to give you further in

FIGHT TO A FINISH.
That Is What Sovereign and Debs
Propose to Do.

CHICAGO, July 13. - General Master
Workman Sovereign was seen this even
ing after he had received the decision of
the Managers Association and the Fed
Grafton of Labor.
"Well," said he. "the general managers
treat us with silent contempt and condemn
US TO death. l suppose they expect us to
die without any resistance. but they are
mistaken. We shall try to tie up all the
rords. but IL we cannot do that, we can at
least tie up one road and keep it tied up.
I have seen Debs tonight and we all
agree that there is but one thing to do and
that is to fight on to the end and with re-
newed energy"
AS to the declaration of the Federation
of Labor Sovereign said: 'It is too ver-
bose to merit much consideration. 1t is
far better as to it's rhetoric than as to its
logic. We are in crisis. This document
deals with theories. What we need is
action. Sympathy is not what we want.
We want coalition of forces against cor
porate powers, and unless we can get it we
might a s well at once consent to be serfs.
The strike has just begun. l think the
position taken by the Federation of Labor
will only weaken their own forces. l be-
ieve the local unions will give us their
support. 1 see no way but to fight 1t to q

test. By Misrepresentation and duplicity
certain corporations assume that they
stand for law and order and that those op-
posing them represent lawlessness and
anarchy. We protest agains this assump-
ton as we protest against the inference
that because certain individual or GER
tain class enjoy monopoly in particular
lines of trade or commerce it necessarily
follows that they are entitled to mono
poly in loyalty and good citizenship.
while we may not have the power to
order strike of the working PEOPLE of
our country, we are fully aware that q
recommendation from this conference to
them to lay down their tools of labor will
largely influence the members of our af-
filiated organizations. and appreciating
the responsibility resting uDon US and the
duty we owe to all. we declare it to be the
sense of this conference that a general
striKe at this time is unwise and contrary
to the best interests Of the working people.
We further recommend that all connected
with the American Federation of Labor
now out on sympathetic strike should re-
turn to work, and those who contemplate
going out on a sympathetic strike are ad-
vised 10 remain at their usual avocations.
"In the strike OF the A. R. U. we recog-
ize an imDulsive, vigorous protest against
the gathering and growing forces of plu-
