vile Included in the Strike
Order.

: NEW YORK, July 2S.-The He
brew clothing. makers of this city
today, for the first time, observed
the American Sunday. They were on
strike. Trouble has been brewing be-
tween the tailors and the contract
ors for some time, and today it Gull
minated in the general strike of the
workers, which was forecasted yes
terday. 1t is claimed by the strikers
that $4,000 workers have responded
to the call of the United Brother
hood of Tailors, and that not only
this city, but Brooklyn, Newark and
Brownsville are affected. The num-
Der out in this city is estimated at
5000. The United Brotherhood of
Tailors had hoped that the strike
might be averted until September,
when the agreement for the year
between the workers and the con-
tractors would expire, and when
work would naturally cease until
new agreement had been arranged
The workers assert that the cor
tractors were not willing to wait,
and that now when there is plenty
of business they wished to force
strike. They say that the contractors
broke through the terms of the ex-
listing agreement by refusing to pay
their hands on the day specified,
and that they, to better ensure the
success of their scheme to force a
strike, locked out several hundred
of their employees.
The contractors allege that slack
work and few orders compelled them
to knock off some of their men. They
deny having any unwillingness to
live up to the terms of the agree
ment, and that they were anxious
to force the men to the actions taken
today. But, however these things
may be, one thing is certain, that
tailors were dissatisfied, and that
they have demonstrated this by re-
spending instantly to the call issued
by the United Brotherhood of Tail
ors, the leading spirit of which is

was wrecked.
1t was lucky adventure for him,
for in the place he landed he found the
Schroderianium. Next year he was
sent to procure it. 1t grew only in one
place, hillside used as a burying
ground by the black natives. The
flower was held sacred, and the nation
absolutely refused to allow the collect

beads and trinkets weakened their
devout resolution, and the matter was
hnally compromised. He was allowed

state department to be photographed.
1t has been decided to send a fac simfle

rather have had the original document.
but this could not be entertained.
The constitution is kept in a steel

A combination lock protects it's price

Yesterday, however, the steel doors
were swung open in order to allow a

today the foundation of the govern

AS is we'll known, there are in the

the other the original draft in the writ

CANADIAN PHOSPHATE MINES.
They Are Not as Remunerafive as
They Formerly We're

They Are Not as Remunerative as
They Formerly Were.
The phosphate mining interests of
Canada are in a. state Of utter collapse
at present, and to remedy this state of
affairs the Canadian Mining associa-
ton proposes to- endeavor to induce
the dominion and provincial govern
ments to introduce the general use of
phosphate fertilizers on Canadian
farms, through the agency of the ex-
perimental farms, says the New York
Sun. AS an illustration of the stagna-
ton of this branch of mining, it may
be mentioned that three years ago
5000 men were employed in phosphate
mining in Ottawa county alone, while
today not three score men are thus
engaged. The cause of the collapse is
the competition in tf1es English mar
kets of the phosphates of Algiers and
the high-grade product of Florida,
which can be worked and marketed
much more cheaply. The mining men
point out that lands in Georgia have
advanced in price from SO to $50 an
acre through the use of fertilizers
Many, in fact most, of the farms of
Quebec have been exhausted by the
wasteful and unscientific farming of
the inhabitants, and so the necessity
of doing something to improve their
farming methods and thus relieve the
phosphate mines will be pressed upon
the government.
Phosphate was mined extensively in
Canada until recently. The principal
mines were in Ottawa county, and the
output averaged from 10000 to 81, 900
tons. The higher grades were shipped
to Europe and the lower found a mar
ket in the United States. The large
profits led to tie opening of new
mines, and considerable of a boom
took place. The excitement culminat-
ed in the formation of the General
Phosphate corporation, limited, with a
capital of 100000, and 1850 acres were
acquired in Ottawa county, at an out
lay of f9S,000.
High-salaried and inexperienced men
were engaged both in London and at
the mines. Then followed the develop
ment of high-grade phosphates in
Florida, and the flooding of the Euro
pean markets Herewith caused a big
drop in the price of Canadian phos-
pilates. The mines were compelled to
suspend or reduce operations, and the
shipments fell from 10000 tons in 1889
to 5000 tons in 1894. This year there is
practically nothing doing.
AS frequently happens in such cases,
the chief gamers have been land spec
ulators rather than the mining COM
panies. One block of land purchased
from the government for $1,000 was
sold for $4,000. 1t consisted of 1000
acres, and half this area was resold
for 100000 and capitalized in a COM
pany at S450,O0O. A property of 100
acres bought at a sheriff's sale for $15
was finally disposed of for $125,O00 cash.
The mine owners feel that at present
their only hope is the general adoption
of superphosphates as a. fertilizer by
the Canadian farmers.

HIS MALADY FEIGNED.
California Courts Have No SYM
pathy for Reporters who Sham
Insanity.

Insanity.
New York Evening Post
A sad blow at Journalistic enter
prise" has been dealt by an unfeeling
judge in California. An ambitious
young reporter on the Los Angeles
Herald, who had wearied of ordinary
assignments, conceived the idea of
winning fame by getting up a sensa-
ton. So he feigned insanity, was
brought before the court for eXamina-
ton, was pronounced a subject for the
asylum, and was sent to the state in
stitution at Highlands. After staying
long enough to get material for a
good story he wanted to get out,
but in order to secure his release, was
obliged to tell the whole story of his
deceit. The judge who had committed
him cited him to appear to answer the
charge of contempt of court, and SEN
fenced him to pay a fine of $2C0 or
serve 100 days in jail. The judge ac-
copied the plea that no disrespect for
him personally had been intended, but
explained that contempt of court was
not an offense against the person of
the judge, but against the government,
because it is an unlawful interference

tice by the tribunals created for that
purpose. In this case the reporter, by
deceit, had caused the machinery of
justice to be set in motion, involving
considerable public expense, and when
brought before the court acted in a
disorderly and insolent manner to in
duce the court to make an improper
and Illegal order. The judge pro-
ceeded to express these views upon
the plea that a journalistic criminal
ought to be treated more leniently than
one not in 1.-The profession"
POSSIBLY, from the standpoint of a
reporter, such conduct may seem right
and proper. 1t is possible even that in
some quarters an attempt to deceive
court Of justice, and by deceit to
procure an improper and illegal order

of considerable public money. and re-
sulting in the sending of a sane man
to an insane asylum-may be looked
upon as legitimate journalistic en-
terprise. L hardly think, however.

citizen would so regard it. One who

SHIFTED CITY LIFE,
An ALLIGATOR Invadcs n Town
and Meets His. Doom.

New York Press
A sixteen-foot alligator crawled out
of the st. John river, at the foot of
Main street, Jacksonville, Fla, one
day last week, and leisurely waddled
up the street toward the center
of the city. Main street is one of the
principal streets of Jacksonville, and
the appearance of the alligator created
good deal of CONSERVATION among the
hundreds of people there. Every man
with a pistol started shooting at the
reptile, but the bullets did not worry it
a bit. After promenading four blocks,
and squelching with it's tail too
familiar newsboy, it received a wound
from rife which caused it to slow
UP, a little. Then it started UP a
leaning telegraph pole, thus exposing
its vulnerable parts, and was soon shot
to death. Nine big alligators have been
killed recently at the foot of Main
street, but this is the first that has
ventured up town.
