mainly from concussion or from broken

The works are situated on the New Jer-

half miles from Gibbstown. The dead men
belonged in Paulsboro and the injured live
in Gib5stown. All were employed in the
works, the women in the casing house The

A DELICATE QUESTION.
BalfOur Does Not Want the Powers
Policy Discussed.

LONDON. March 26.-An important dis
cussion took place in the House of Com
mons to-day during consideration of the
Foreign Office estimates. John Morley, in
the absence of the Liberal leader, Sir VIII
liam Vernon Harcourt. criticised at length
and with great vigor the action of the pow
ers in the Graeco-Cretan affair. and invited
the government TO take the country into its
confidence by clear definition of policy.
He said autonomy was a mere phrase. be
cause the Porte reserved the power 10 dis
cuss its form and its details. 1t had been
admitted by Lord Salisbury that the event
ual outcome would probably be the an
nexation of Crete to Greece. yet in spite OF
this decision Great Britain assisted the
powers I'm the blockade. In this way Great
Britain was made to pursue "A policy op-
ment, and against the sympathy and the
convictions of the English people. How
could autonomy, he asked, be worked out
without the cooperation of the Cretans?

CHICAGO. March 26.-Frank De Haas

James A. Hart, of Chicago. were the four
baseball magnates who met here to-day

though. judging from what information
they gave out, they did absolutely nothing
of public interest. Mr.. Brush came back
from Indianapolis this morning after hav-
ing left here for the Hoosier capital only
night before last.
1t is apparent that some baseball deal is
''on." but just what it is cannot be learned
tonight. IL is surmised however. that it
means the transfer of the Cleveland Club
to another city. as has been limited at for
a long time. One thing is significant; the
four ma gnates-the Robisons, Brush and
Hart-all left for indianapolis tonight
Perhaps this may mean that Indianapolis
is to be converted into a National League
city. De Haas Robson Is greatly wrought
up over the antagonism to his proposition
to play Sunday baseball at home and he
declares that If he is thwarted in his at
tempt to make his club pay in this way,
when he believes the majority of the peo-
pie want Sunday games. he will dispose
of his club to Brooklyn, ST. Louis any
other city that makes the most favorable
practical offer The four magnates were in
the greatest OF good humor this evening.
Undoubtedly there will be further develop
ments on the object of to-day's conference
in a few days.
An Associated Press dispatch says the
meeting of the magnates had evidently
been made by appointment, and telegram
received during the day gave some color to
the report that it was proposed to remove
the franchise of the Cleveland club to Mil
waukee. This could not be substantiated
however. and none of the men at the meet
