GOMPERS DOES NO GOOD.
Non-Union Men Talk of Resuning
Work

New Bedford, March 9.-The result of
the visit of President Gompers of the
American Federation of Labor is dis
appointing to the strikers. They had
been led to believe that there was a
prospect, through Gompers, of securing
increased financial assistance, the
means to be general levy of the or
ganizat1On which he represents The
result was a promise of the same old
moral support which the strikers have
been receiving from time to time, and
which, as they have repeatedly stated,
does not fill their empty stomachs.
Gompers claimed that 95 per cent of
the support the strikers were receiving
came from the organizations allied with
the Federation of Labor, but he could
not guarantee any increase. 1t may
have done Gompers good to haul his
socialist enemy, DeLeon, over the Goals,
but the strikers wanted a promise of
more assistance from him. That they
did not get. In consequence there is
much talk this morning, especially
among the nOn-unioniSts, of returning
to work under the reduction. Two of
the prominent union leaders are out of
town on missions. The remaining lead
er of prominence, Secretary Ross of the
spinners, will leave Sunday night for
Washington. Whether the leaders in
their absence will be able to queu the
disturbing tendency which is beginning
to be felt must be proved by the events
of the coming week. 1t is beginning to
be freely talked among the disgruntled
operatives that the strike can last but
a week longer

CALIFORNIA WINE DEFICIT
Notwithstanding Prices Are Low
the Dealers Report a Scarcity.

San Francisco. Cal. March "a wide
of the wine industry in California has
been developed through the announcement
by the Associated Press of the sale of
large quantity of wine at eight cents per
gallon,
In an interview with Charles A. Welt
mer, one of the most prominent of the
California viticulturists, whose reputation
as an expert wine man is well known,
in F1IIrone Mr. TVettner said: sa'The sa lie
of 10000 gallons at from to cents

under execution of a bank and does not

by brokers of wholesale wine spectators

wine makers has been formed TO prevent
any long continued depression and it is
cent of the last vintage will be suffered
to go off at a sacrifice of cost of produc-
ton.
Quotations of prices for large cellars
of new wines are misleading to the pub
Ilc II II IS not undersLood that oI!y tng
cheapest common wines are quOteu ana
that before they are offered for distribu-
ton considerable additional expenses OF
removal, storage, treatment ana cooper
age must be incurred. Such prices are
available only to a few. spectators, who
have large storage facilities, capital and
expensive distributing agencies.
THE impression that there is an over
production or an unmanageaple supply IS
proved to the contrary by a months hard
work of careful investigation. There is
an actual deficit in the wine supply. The
annual consumption of California wines is
now about twenty-five million gallons
There is not more than three million gal
Ions of wine one year old in the hands of
the wholesale dealers and not more than
six million gallons in the hands of the
producers The last vintage was a large
one. but when ready for market it Will
be reduced by distillation of poor material
and evaporation, so that it will scarcely
supply one years demand, and the next
vintage will, without the slightest doubt,
be far short of the necessary demand.

The State Arsenal Packed Full
of Fresh Supplies
Sent by the Government to
Equip the Militia.
TEN TONS RECEIVED.
Applications For Enlistment of
Ten New Companies
Already on Hand, For Service
in the Spanish War.

Although it is stoutly denied that any
instructions have been received from
the officials at Washington, it is a fact
that the adjutant generals department
of Kansas as preparing for the emer-
gency of war.
Within the last 20 days a government
consignment consisting of uniforms, am
munition and camp utensils and
amounting to ten tons, has been re-
ceived by the department, and instead
of distributing the supplies to the diff
ferent companies in the state, as has
been the custom for years, the boxes
have been stored in the arsenal in the
basement of the state house and are
now being unpacked- This is the hrSt
time in the history of the state militia
that these supplies have arrived at one
time. Usually it has been shipped from
the government store houses only as it
was needed by the different companies.
All the state arms, consisting OF about
500 Springfield rifles, that in the past
were loaned to military companies or
ganized at schools throughout the state,
have been called in and are now piled
in boxes in the arsenal. There are now
sufficient uniforms and utensils to equip
a regiment besides the 1850 organized
men now in the Kansas National
Guard, but at least 500 additional rifles
would have to be secured from the gov
eminent to arm this number of men.
Assistant Adjutant General Boyd says
cured inside of four days.
The Illinois militia yesterday receiV-
ed 1000 new rifles from the Brooklyn
navy yard and guns of late pattern
are expected at Topeka before long.
There are now applications on file in
the adjutant generals office for the or
ganizatiOn of more than ten companies,
and inside of a week after call was
issued Kansas could send $3.50 men on
their way to the scene of action.
Three rooms are occupied by the ar
senal in the basement of the capitol
building, and just at present they pre-
sent a disordered appearance. Coats,
caps, trousers and overcoats are stack
ed in piles on the floor, unopened as
well as half unpacked boxes of the
same articles stand beside them, while
around the rooms are bales of blankets,
piles of frying pans, tin plates, KNAPP
sacks and canteens, boxes of ammuni-
ton and Springfield rifles in long mar
row boxes. Some of the supplies have
not yet been moved into the arsenal
and the boxes are piled together in the
basement hall
The last of the government apportion-
ment, consisting of 81 boxes of cart
ridges, was received yesterday.
If war is declared and a call for men
issued the Kansas militia department
will be found to be in readiness.

TO FREE FERRIS ASHES.
Chicago Friends Are Investigating
Story From Pittsburg.

Chicago, March 9-The Chicago
friends of the late George w. G.. Ferris
are much perpleXed over the news from
Pittsburg that the ashes of the inventor
of the Ferris Wheel are held by Under
taker Hudson Samson pen( 1g the pay
ment of the funeral expenses. They
have written to people in Pittsburg ask
ing for more definite information about
the matter and are reserving all action
until replies come to their inquiries. 1t
is believed they intend to pay the obli-
cation.
The Ferris Wheel was purchased by
Robert W. Hunt & Co Mr.. Hunt was
seen last evening at his residence, GA
Division street.
Il hardly know what to think about
the matter he said. 1T seems a
strange, unWarranted proceeding if the
story is correct. Common decency
would at least dictate that a mans
ashes be turned over to the proper per
son to receive them and be given due
respect. But it does not appear plausi-
BILE that the friends of Mr.. Ferris in
Pittsburg would suffer his remains to
receive such an indignity. They are
members of the firm of Hallsted &
which Mr. Ferris was conducted If we
find on investigation that the facts are
as reported the Chicago friends of Mr..
Ferris will take steps to rectify the
matter.
1T is true that Mr.. Ferris died with
out making a will, but he had a large
life insurance, and even if it were all
taken to settle his accounts the court
would have appointed an administrator

ANOTHER ROUTEF FOR GRAIN
Westerners Get a New All Lake and
Rail Line From Chicago.

Cleveland. March 9.-The steel steam
ers Saxon, German, GFecian, BritOn and
Roman of the Menominee Transit com
pany. which is practically NJ A Hanna
& Co and the Globe Iron Works com
pany, were chartered yesterday for two
years by the new Canadian-Atlantic
line, which will operate them between
Duluth, Chicago and Parry Sound.
Headquarters of the Canadian COM
pany are in Ottawa, Ont, and it has an
elevator and terminal facilities at Par
~ Sound. The steamers, which were
built for the coal and ore trade, will be
fitted up for grain by the Menominee
company before delivery on May 1. The
steamers can carry about 100000 tons
or ore in season, and the chartering
of the vessels means that NJ. A. Hanna
& Co. will want much more wild ton
mage.
The significance of the deal is that it
gives westerners an all lake and rail
line from Chicago and Duluth The line
will cut into the southern trade.

FOUND WHAT He WANTED.
Supt. Stryker's Position Sustained by
Justice Brewers Opinion.

superintendent Stryker has discovered
that by a decision rendered by Judge
David J. Brewer, now on the supreme
bench, while one of the judges of state
supreme court, district school boards
have no right to purchase charts, maps,
globes and other school accessories
without a vote of the district. Mr..
Stryker has contended for some time
that the school districts were being reg
ularly robbed by the purchase of such
accessories at enormous prices, and he
believes that this discovery will put a
stop to it. 1t is one of Mr. STRIKERS
plans to include maps, charts, globes,
ETC.. in the text book law at the next
session of the legislature.
IF school officers would take advant-
age of this decision said Mr.. Stryker,
and of the law which provides that no
action is legal unless taken at a regu-
larry called meeting, all members being
notified, they would save themselves
much unnecessary annoyance, and the
schools of the state a large amount of
money now practically wasted

Webb McNaII Continues to Enforce
Insurance Laws-AlI of Them.

Insurance Commissioner McNalI is to-
day mailing copies of a circular letter
to all fire insurance companies doing
business in Kansas, advising them that
they must obey the valued policy law
or get out of the state. The letter con-
tains a copy of the valued policy law,
and also the chapter of the session laws
of 1897 on the liabilities of fire insurance
companies.
The letter concludes as follows:
1.-The department will require in the
future that this law be complied with,
and where there is a total loss on real
property the insurance companies will
be required to pay the face value of the
policy, unless fraud at the time the pol
icy was obtained is made to appear"
