from the utterance there in favor of unity

viction that the strike here was about
ended. The prophets have erred evidently
as the meeting this afternoon has strongly
demonstrated that the A. r. U. has not
suffered disbandment yet and not one

here is entirely over.
During the day a number of trains de-
parted and arrived; one Tor San Francisco

were heavily guarded and doubtless will
be for some time.
There has been considerable talk in

EGG HARBoR CITY, n. j., July 10
Forest fires that have been raging in this
section for several days past have swept
| over ali area of more than 5000 acres. Last
night the condition of affairs looked Sc
rious, and the residents for Sc vera miles
| around were called out to fight the flames.
Although they met some success in chang
ing the course of the fire. there is still great
danger that many buildings will be de-
stroyed. Among the buildings already
burned are those on the farm of Congress-
man j. j. Gardner, including his fine coun-
try residence.
Near Bridgeport the dwelling of Captain
Gus Williams was also destroyed. A fierce
fire is now sweeping through the dense
woods in the lower part of Galloway
Township, and is headed directly toward
Hewttown. 1t is impossible to form any
estimate of the loss at present. The prin-
clpal losers. however, will be the owners
of the timber lands, large sections of
which have been swept by the flames.

But No Attention Will Be Paid to
Uncle Sans Secret Service
Chief.

JACKSON, Miss, July 15.-The Missis-
sippi Leg isla,ure at its last session passed
an act authorizing the Governor, the Aud
itor and the Treasurer to issue treasury
warrants in denominations of So, should
IL become necessary to tide over the finan.
cial crisis. The issue was limited to
100000. 1t was the intention of the Legis-
lature to have the warrants pass as money
all over the State.
Immediately after the passage of the act
the State Auditor contracted with the ST.
Louis Bank Note Com pany for the print
ing of the warrants, and the first INSTALL
ment of $4,000 was delivered to the State
Treasurer and placed in circulation a few
weeks ago.
Yesterday Governor Stone received a
dispatch from w. W. Hazen, Chief of the
United States Secret Service at Washing
ton, demanding that the Governor send
to him all of the unsigned warrants that
have not been placed in circulation. Mr..
Razen also telegraphed the ST. Louis
Bank Note Company that the plates be
turned over TO the Government.
In an interview Governor Stone stated
that he would not comply with Hazen's
demand in any particular, anu that the is
sue Of the special warrants will be con-
tinued until the full issue of $500. 600 is COM
pleted. The State officials regard Hazen's
demands as unwarranted interference and
will OF treat it seriously.
They say that the demands were based
on the assumption that the special war
rants resemble too closely United States
cnrrency and are yiolatiye of the lave of
the United States. This is denied by
Governor Stone, who says The act of the
Legislature is sustained by the best legal
authorities in the country. The Auditor
