Tailor Shops Yet Running in Chicago, but
the Strikers Are Confident of
Victory.

CHICAGO. ILL, March ia delega-
tion from the striking tailors visited the
shop of Klein & Marks, 12S Fifth avenue,
this morning and called upon the 100 men
and girls employed there to quit work and
join the big strike. They we've also asked
to join the union and SO much excitement
followed among strikers, sympathizers and
employees that the proprietors closed the
place and called the police to clear the
rooms and passageways. Some of the
employees went to the strike headquarters,
but the firm expects most of them to re-
turn to work tomorrow, saying they were
scared out.
A form of agreement was drawn up by
the United Garment-workers' Union to-
day for the contractors to sign as basis
of settlement for their part of the strike.
The proposition was considered by the en-
ployers and rejected, the most obnoxious
part being requirement of bond of
$500 by each contractor to keep the agree
ment.
The contractors claim that only five
shops are closed and the strike-leaders say
all are closed except one. All Of the shops
that are running are under police protec-
ton.

Secretary Curzon Points Out the
Necessity of the British
Expedition.
THAT ADVANCE UP THE NILE
France Continues to Interpose Objec-
tions to British Operations in
the Soudan.

LONDON, ENG, March 10. - In the
House of Commons to-day Mr.. Labou-
chere, referring to the British expedition
to Dongola, asked the Government if any
alliance existed between Great Britain and
Italy.
Mr.. Curzon, Under Foreign Secretary,
said there existed no alliance or agreement
of any kind between the two countries
but the circumstances in which they were
placed He pointed to the expediency of
a friendly cooperation between the two
Governments in defense of their common
interests.
Mr.. Curzon also announced that M.
Berthelot, French Minister of Foreign
Affairs, had informed Lord Dufferin, the
British ambassador to France, that he
repudiated all responsibility for the state
ment made in reporting the purport of the
interview between the Minister and the
En- bassador on Tuesday, in which the
former is represented as having demanded
to know the reasons for the British expedi-
ton up the Nile and as having pointed
out the gravity of the consequence of the
movement. Such statements. NJ. Berthelot
had said, must have been published by
misinformed persons.
France, Mr.. Curzon said, had been in
formed of the intended plans of Great
Britain in the Nile Valley, but the French
Government had not as yet made any
reply.
The italian Government, Mr.. Curzon
continued, had informed England that
Italy would not evacuate Kassala, unless
the military authorities there should find
II in, r,oseihla ta hold fha f,1aco
Mr.. Balfour, First Lord of the Treasury
and Government leader in the House, said
that the British ambassadors to Paris.
Berlin, Vienna, Rome and st. Petersburg,
had been instructed to communicate to
the respective governments to which they
were accredited the grounds upon which
the English advance up the Nile Valley
had been made and also to point out the
fact that in order to meet the expendi-
lures required it might be necessary to
use larger sum than was at the disposal
of the Egyptian treasury and that the
Government hoped that the commission
of the Egyptian public debt would assent
to the expenditure of f500,000 from the
reserve fund, which was now f2, 500, 900.
The Governments of Germany, Italy
and Austria had given replies asserting to
this, but Russia and France had not an
swered. As the operations were in the
interest of Egypt, Mr.. Balfour said the
costs should naturally be betrayed from
the reserve fund. 1t was not possible, he
said, to form an exact estimate of the ex-
pense at present.
In the House of Lords Lord Salisbury,
in reply to a question from Lord Rosebery,
said the Italian Government had not
learned of the fall of KassaIa, which is
reg garded as extremely improbable.

The British Steamer Ethelred Outs aife
the Spanish Vessel.

-
the Spanish Vessel.
BOSTON, MASS, March 19.-An officer
OF the British steamer Ethelred, Captain
Hopkins, which arrived this morning
from Jamaican ports, reports that on
March IL, on the outward passage from
this port to Jamaica the steamer was
chased for an hour and a half by Span.
ish cruiser.
The Ethelred was steaming about eight
miles off Cape Maysi, the eastern end of
the island of Cuba, on the way to her des-
tination. She was going about twelve
knots an hour when a Spanish cruiser was
sighted. evidently on the lookout for the
supposed filibustering steamer.
The cruiser hoisted a flag and the fruiter
did likewise. The latter continued on her
way, but the warship started in pursuit
and kept IL up for a considerable time.
The Spaniard could not make over nine
knots an hour, and was no match for the
fruit vessel. When first seen by the Ethel
red another cruiser was in company with
the aggressive one, but apparently took no
interest in the proceedings. No shots
were fired from the warship, as the dis
tance was too great for any display of gun
practice.
1t is claimed that as the Ethelred was
outside the three-miie limit the cruiser
had no right to attempt to stop her. The
Ethelred obtained considerable notoriety
last summer by being fred upon off the
Cuban coast by Spanish gunboat.

Mandersop, who is in Washington, held
out until to-day for delegation to the st.
Louis convention instructed for him. To-
night he wired that be would be guided by
what his friends in Nebraska thought was
best. The provisions of the compromise
briefly stated are these: The State dele
cation will be for Mckinley, but Mander-
sons name will be formally presented to
the convention unless it is apparent that
the Ohio mans nomination is assured.
All district conventions are instructed to
abide by the agreement, and the Mander-
son people have Senator Thurston's word
for it that the terms will be carried out.

THE STRENGTH OF ALLIsoM
There Is a Bright Prospect of His Getting
the Nomination.

There Is a Bright Prospect of His Getting
the Non,iadtton.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 49,
While the Mckinley men are claiming the
earth, so to speak, the Allison contingent
in the House disdains to juggle with fig
ures, but is 'laying low" like Br'er Fox in
the fable. They hug the idea tenaciously
that unless Mckinley has an inalienable
right to the nomination, and that his lien
cannot be dissolved in the supreme mo-
ment of work of the ST. Louis convention,
Allison is destined to capture the plum
and in that conviction they find comfort
and contentment.
''The strength of Allison" said Repre-
sentative Perkins of Iowa, editor of
one of the leading Allison papers in the
United States, ''is to be found in the pc
culiar position he occupies between the So
called leaders in the race. His connection
with the race has been happily free from
irritation and friction. To partisans of
Mckinley and other candidates he appears
in the character of a peculiarly amiable
compromise candidate. The solution of
the whole vexed question in favor of Ali
son, in my opinion. is the steadily grow
ing bitterness between partisans OF these
men. 1t must sooner or later occur to
them that Allison is a man whose candi-
dacy will provoke less hostility than that
of either Mckinley or Reed.
1.-THE level-headed men who will repre-
sent the Republican party at ST. Louis will
consider what will happen after the elec-
ton. Republicans ought to consider that
if they should come back into power the
party will be on trial again. 1t is more i'm
portant that this trial shall meet reasona-
BILE expectations. and give hold upon sue
ceeding elections that whether it shall be
Mckinley or Reed who will lead the Re-
publican phalanx to victory in November,
for conclude that Republican victory is
inevitable. That election should insure
for US a new lease of political life and we
should be careful that in nominating our
candidate we strike nc deep wounds which
will open and bleed after the victory Is
won. In this respect Allison is strong.
He is in the happy relation of second
choice 10 almost every other candidate
where preference is not for him first. He
is making no enemies and is under obli-
cations to no man. The partisans of
other candidates can gravitate to him
with clear conscience and Allison can ac-
cept that nomination and run his race
without having hedged himself about with
promises and com promising entangle-
menfs waiting to be redeemed after he
takes his seat. If the nomination of Nc
Kinley Is not conceded Allison will be the
man.

WASHINGTON, d. e., March 10.-Sec-
retary Carlisle had long conference with
the President this morning on the subject
of enforcing the neutrality laws as against
filibustering expeditions leaving the
United States to aid Cuban insurgents.
On his return to the Treasury the follow
lowing telegram was dictated and sent
broadcast:

ports that filibustering expedition for Cuba

muda, off Great Egg Harbor inlet. yesterday

General Garcia and several followers. If the
vessel is carrying an expedition consisting of
arms and men, in violation to title 81, Revised
Statutes of the United States, seize her if she
arrives within your jurisdiction. The fact
that vessel carries q cargo of arms is not suf-
ficient of itself to authorize seizure. If nee
essary communicate with any revenue cutter
and with the United States Attorney.

Copies of this telegram were sent to the
Navy Department, to Captain Shoemaker,
chief of the revenue cutter service of the
Treasury Department, to the Spanish Min
lister here, to the Attorney General, the
Secretary of State, and to all Collectors of
Customs along the Atlantic coast from

District Conventions.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND, March 19.-The
Republicans of Indiana to-day held their
Congressional district conventions for the
election of delegates and alternates 10 the
National Convention and for The nomina-
ton of candidates for Congress. William
McKinley's name was well received at all
conventions in the thirteen districts and
most of them indorsed him for President
or adopted the stronger course of instruct
ing their delegates to vote for him until
his name was withdrawn or his nomina-
ton had been accomplished.
The Second District convention was di-
vided between Allison and Mckinley and
the delegation was uninstructed. The
Seventh District practically sent Mckinley
delegates. Harry S. New of Indianapolis,
who is a Harrison man from intimate
when elected one of the delegates that he
would vote for Mckinley if the conditions
remained as they we're at present. The
other delegate Is a McKinleyite.
Resolutions indorsing Mckinley were
ADOPTED in the First, Third, Fourth, Fifth,
Sixth, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth. Eleventh
and Twelfth districts and the delegates SO
instructed. The Thirteenth District de-
clared for him, but did not so instruct the
delegates. Most of the Endorsements were
carried through without opposition. The
Second District renominated Hon. A. NJ
Hardy of Daviess County for Congress.
Marcus r. Sulzer of Madison was nomi-
mated in the Fourth; Congressman ]. N.

BROOKLYN, N. Y, March 19.-Con-
ventions were held by the Republicans in
the five Congressional districts OF Kings
County tonight to elect delegates to the
National Convention at st. Louis. The
following were chosen:
Second District-Theodore B. Willis and
George III. Roberts Jr.
+ Third District-Timothy L. Woodruff
and Walter B. Atterbury.
Fourth District-Granville w. Harmon
and Joseph R. Clark.
Fifth Observation-Disclosures W. Wurster
and Ernest J. Keltonb bach.
Sixth District-Henry C. Saffen and
George w. Palmer.
The contest in this city over the election
of delegates to the st. Louis Republican
Convention was more of a local affair than
National one. The Willis Wurster fac
tion carried the Second, Third and Fifth
districts, and the Worth faction the
Fourth and Sixth districts. The former
faction favor the candidacy of Governor
Morton for the Presidency, and it is
thought that the Worth faction also
favors Governor Morton, as Mr.. Worth is
an adherent of Mr.. Platt's.

convention. held at Potsdam to-day, Hon.

REPUBLICANS OF MIssOURI.

The State Committee to Decide the Nwm-
Der of Conventions.
ST. LOUIS. Mo-, March 19.-The Repub-
lican State Committee will meet here to-
morrow to decide whether one or two con-
ventions will be held in Missouri this year
The Filley and Kerens factions are divided
on this question and lively contest is ex-
pected. The former favors holding two
conventions-the first to elect four dele
gates-at-large to the convention and the
new State Committee, and the second to
nominate officers. Should the plan be
carried out, Filley will undoubtedly be
one of the delegates to the st. Louis con-
vention. The Kerens- Walbridge faction
desires but one convention, and hopes by
this to gain time in which to so arrange
the contest for delegates that Mayor Wal
bridge will secure the gubernatorial NOM
ination and Kerens be chosen one of the
delegates-at-large In any event it is con-
ceded that the delegation from this State
will favor Mckinley for President.

VERY SERIOUS OBJECTIONS.
Minister Berthetot Speaks of the English
Erpedition.

PARIS, FRANCE, March 19.-In the
Chamber of Deputies to-day NJ. Berthelot,
Minister of Foreign Affairs, said that
there were serious objections. both finan-
cial and political, to the British expedition
against Dongola, and that representations
had been made by France to the Govern
ment of England and to that at Cairo, ne
gotiations resulting from which were now
pending.
M. Berthelot added that France had de-
clined to accede to Great Britain's request
to take $500, 900 from the Egyptian reserve
to meet the expenses of the expedition.
The expedition was not defensive one
but an offensive act.
LONDON, ENG, March 19.-The Morn
ing Post will publish dispatch from
Paris saying that the Chamber of Deputies
is satisfied with M. Berthelot's statement,
which is regarded as having been patriotic,
although pacific.

Wilhelm of Pennsylvania secretary. For
three hours and half behind closed doors
the conference proceeded, involving the
uniting of bimetallism and protection as
National issue. Remarks were made by
Senators Teller. Jones of Nevada, Carter,
Mantle and Cannon. President Dornan of
the Manufacturers Club OF Philadelphia
expressed the opinion that tariff duties
could not be made high enough to protect
our manufacturers if our country remained
on gold basis.
James Dobson. the great carpet manu-
facturer, came out. unquali6edly for free
coinage, by international agreement if pos
sible, otherwise by independent action.
He believed that independent action would
induce international action. Free coinage
might create temporary disturbances, but
it was the quickest stway to perform relief to
mills ali over the country, which were suf-
fering.
Henry A. Frye of Philadelphia said
that the sooner we took indepe ndent
action for bimetallism the better it would
be. He declared for protection and BIZ
metallism. Charles II. Clarke, editor of
the Manufacturer of Philadelphia, said he
had labored in season and out of season to
convince the manufacturers that protec-
ton would only prove efficacious in con-
junction with the restoration of silver;
that he was now happy TO have so many
representatives Of the industrial interests
of the country present to meet the Sena-
tors who had voted against the Dingley
bill and to personally verify his declara-
ton.
Richard Campion declared himself in
favor of the restoration OF silver, but
thought that the cause of bimetallism was
not advanced by the defeat of the revenue
measures.
Several opinions were expressed of re-
gret at the loss of the Dingley measure,
bur no opinion antagonistic to the restora-
ton of silver was uttered.
The Senators present defined their posi-
tion in such manner as to make it plain to
the manufacturers that there could be no
protective-tariff legislation either at this
session of Congress or the next without
the. rehabilitation of silver or bimetallism,
and protection constituted an indivisible
issue before the country. Some of the
manufacturers themselves indorsed the
position as being the logic of the country's
necessities and political conditions. The
issue was clearly defined, but no attempt
at organization was made.
The intensity of the interest shown
demonstrated determination to rescue
the country, if possible, from its impend-
ing industrial and financial ills. Charles
Heber Clarke invited the Senator's to a
meeting to be held at the Manufacturers
Club, Philadelphia, at an early date.
Many strong letters in harmony with the
purpose of the meeting were received
from manufacturers throughout the coun-
try who were unable to be present at this
particular meeting.
The incidental mention of the name of
J. Donald Cam eron for nomination for the
Presidency met with cordial approval.
