GERMANS CELEBRATE.

Anniversary or Their First Ameri-
can Settlement Observed.
The anniversary of the first settlement
Of the Germans in America at German
town, Pa, was celebrated at Cincinnati,
Monday with the largest demonstration of
the kind ever known in that oity. Over
100 German societies participated. There
were parades in the morning and over n, 900
people assembled In the geological garden
in the afternoon. Carl Schurz was the ora
tor of the day, with speeches by Mayor
Tafel, ex-Mayor Caldwell and others, to-
gether with exercises by the Turner's and
music by union chorus of the musical
societies. Mr.. Schurz spoke on sovereign
citizenship, holding that citizenship was
higher than partisanship. He said bosses
were as dangerous as monarcAs; that
bosses we're really the chiefs of brigands
whose only object was booty.

CHARNLEY STILL At LARGE.

Shortage a che Presbyterian Treas
urer May Reach 100000.
Charles NJ. Chsrnlsy Of Chicago, whs Il
alleged to have enbezzled at least Ss0.0oc
from the treasury Of the Presbyterian
board for aid Of colleges, 10 still at laEge,
but, although the ofllcials Of the American
Surety Company will not admit the fact.
they do not deny that he is whore they can
and him at any time they want him.
It is said that an understanding has been
effected between Charnley's friends and
the surety company, but the present indi-
cations ere that there is little hope Of
Charnley being able to make things all
right. Daniel T. Hunt, manager of the
American Surety Company, admits Charm
ley is short probably $50, 900 and that the
company Is on his bond to the extent OF
h00O. He could not be induced to say
what action the company would take In
tAs matter.
Many Presbyterian colleges and acade-
niles are partly dependent upon the board
for aid. Fear is expressed that some OF
them will be seriously embarrassed. 1t Is
said that the defalcaticns may reach 500,

rHE NEWS OF THE DAY
SOUTH DAKOTA HAPPENINGS IN
CONDENSED FORM.
Hearing in the Injunction Case of
the Railroads Against the Conn
missioners Railroads Claim to BE
Losin. Money--Cther Items.
Railroad Commission Trouble.


The application for an injunction to re-
train the South Dakota railroad commits
,in,i from putting into effect the rates re-
emily adopted, came on for hearing in the
federal court at Sioux Falls September y.
In their bill of complaint the companies
aontended that they were losing money in
the state. and that any reduction in rates
would be con,iscatory. The commission
claims that the roads are operating at il
profit in South Dokota. The discrepancy
arises over disagreement between the
commission and the companies on the
division of profits. The commission claims
that not enough credit is given to South
Dakota for the through business original
ing in this state.
The Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul
claims to have lost $4,O44, 5)S.41 on South
Dakota lines in the five years. The Chi
cago and Northwestern and Omaha claims
to have lost $685., 550.l6 during the same
period. The commission says that this loss
is not real, but the result Of artistic book
keeping. No decision has as yet been
rendered

WORSE THAN PAINTED
ALASKAN AUTHORITIES ARE
MUCH ALARMED.
Worst Class OF Criminals on the
Pacific Coase-Gov. Brady Will
Notify Authorities In Washington.

Alaska Authorities Alarmed.
The authorities of Alaska have awak-
ened to the serious nature OF the situation
at White Pass. They see in continuance
Of the camp at Sksguay, as now consti-
tuted, possibilities of crime and various
other evils of great magnitude. Steps will
be taken to break up the camp by dispers-
ing the lawless element that has gathered
there.
Col. F. 8. Chadbourne, state harbor
commissioner Of California, says Collector
Ives and q force of deputy United States
maEshals have determined to raid the town
Of Skaguay and clean out the whisky
smugglers and saloon men and rid the
camp Of the disordsrly elsment. 1t is the
refuge Of the worst class Of criminals, con-
fidealce men and thugs on the coast.
Serioas - u the situation at Skaguay
aud White Pass, q portrayed by letters
and man returning from Csmp Oscillation,
land appalling - i the condition Of the
trail over the mountain barrier between
the s. 600 gold hunters and tho paradise
ON the other side, the accounts published
from time to time seem 10 have but family
portrayed the actual state Of affairs.
Made desperate by their failure to get
over the trail, and by the terrible hard
ships they have been compelled to endure
in the hopeless struggle against the odds
of the past weeks, the miners have become
suspicious Of each other and quarrels are
an hourly occurrence. Every mans hand
is raised against every other man.
Gov. Brady is quoted as saying the sit
uation is laden with trouble, and he intends
TO notify the department at Washington of
the condition of affairs.

Laboring Men Addressed by tho
silver Champion.
The feature Of the Labor Day celebra-
ton at st. Louis, Mo-, September was an
address by w. J. Bryan at Concordia Park.
The biggest crowd ever seen in the park
greeted the speaker. His speech through
out was enthusiastically applauded. Pre-
vious to the meeting Mr.. Bryan reviewed q
parade of $1,000 laboring men.
Mr.. Bryan spoke in part as follows:
While I find pleasure In participating In the
exercises of this day I am also act,,ated by a
sense Of duty, because tho observance OF Labor
Day affords me an opportunity for the discussion
Of those questions which especially concern the
producers Of wealth.
The labor organization has been one Of the
most potent influences in improving the condi-
ton OF the wage earners. Labor organizations
are almost entirely responsible for the fact that
skilled labor wages have not fallen as much as
prices, although they have not always succeeded
In keeping employment up to full time.
While giving to these organizations credit for
what they have done, 1t Is only fair to suggest
that neither labor organizations nor any other
form Of protection can secure to labor perman-
ttnues to fall. The idle man Is the menace to the
man who has employment and the number Of
Idle men must necessarily increase II We have q
money system which constantly lowers the
market value of the products of labor.
Arbitration Of differences between large cor
