In New Bedford-SIni Riremrn ut Work.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Jan. 28.-The officials Of
the King Philip mills made a determined effort
to-day to end the strike of the spinners and
failed. The spinners are now moro hopeful
than ever OF winning. This morning Agent
Chase called n committee of ring spinners to the
office. 1t was composed of six girls. He did
not talk to thcm No representatives of the
strikers. Instead he offered each 81 q day to
return to work Immediately. They refused to
consider tho offer. for they looked upon 1t rs an

but they contend that the reduction exceeds

agreed that tho first company to submit within
the month following the opening of q strike
should submit to a heavy fine. 1t is further said
that oil losses incurred by the New Bedford mill
men will be made good by the manufacturers In
the agreement.
NEW BEDFORD. Mass. Jan. 26.-The most in.
t%eresting developments Of the day in the strike
situation here is the alleged discovery of the
Bpinners that the mission of Mill Superintend-
ents Knowles OF the Acushnet mill ana Burgess
Of the Pierce, who are now on their way to Eu-
rope, is to- buy yarns. This is important in its
supposed bearing on the manufacturers idea Of
the termination of the strike. II the spinners'
surmise is correct the mill officials intend to
now test the strength Of the union. which alone
has been able to dictate terms to the corporation
in the past. The New Bedford spinners have
once failed to close the mills here owing to the
Introduction OF English yarn. the source Of sup
ply for a long time being unknown.
At n meeting OF the mill flremen this evening
1t was voted not to strike. This action was taken
because the old scale of prices has been offered
to them by the treasurers until q settlement OF
some kind is reached. This is not significant
that the treasurers expect a speedy settlement:
however. In order to comply with the terms of
insurance the fires must be kept going. and the
treasurers are willing to pay former wages for
this purpose.

STATE MEDICAL SOCIETY.

Or. Roo or Rochester to ne Named for Fresi-
dent-Dispensary Abuses Not to Bo Discussed.
ALBANY, Jan. 26.-At this evenings session
of tho State Medical Society there was q lively
contest before the Nominating Committee
over the physician to be selected as the next
President of tho society. Tho three principal
names considered were those OF DR.. j. o.
Roe Of Rochester, DR.. Willis G. Macdonald Of
Albany, and DIR. Henry L. Ellsner Of Syracuse.
The committee decided on Mr.. Roe for this
office, and he will be recommended by the COM
mittee when they make q report at to-morrow's
session.
The question Of free dispensary abuses, o burn
ing theme to the greater Now York practitioners,
has been completely side tracked. and will not
be brought up at the meeting OF the society.
The members greatly differ on this question.
and, as it was originally agitated by the New
York city physicians, many mem ers of the
society think it should be left to them to find u
remedy for the existing abuses of medical charity
rather than inject it In the discussions Of the
State Society.
These physicians do not approve Of the Sui.
Ivan bill introduced in the Legislature, which
empowers the State Board Of Charities to super
wise dispensaries and approve their incorpora-
ton. They do not think such powers should be
lodged in a lay body, but are not yet agreed on
any other plan of supervision. This Is one Of
the most important questions to be determined
before q suitable bill can DO framed.

said:

races have since been the Governments stanch'

battles with the English, in 1918, 500 OF tho
little fighters, intrenched, kept several thousand
of their antagonists at bay for many hours, and
when finally they surrendered, only thirty.six
were alive TO hand over their rifles.
One of the Gurkhas scored well tho other day
against an Afridis, when the latter suddenly
jumped up from behind q bush and fired ut close
quarters. The Gurkha fell to the ground at
once, pretending to have been killed, whereupon
the Afridis rushed up to the supposed corpse
with tho intention Of performing his accus-
toned mutilation. But when his enemy was
within a few yards of him the sporting Nepa-
lnise jumped to his feet with q laugh and planted
a bullet in tho Pathan's heart.
Although the Gurkhas are principally Of Mon

Japanese moro than the inhabitants Of the Cobb

VANCOUVER, Jan. 26.-In spite Of the assur-
ance of friendliness at Washington. the Cham
bers of Commerce and the British Columbia
press are reiterating their demand to the Cana
dian Government over and over again. "Close
the passes" is their cry as they watch the Klon-
dixie trade drifting to Puget Sound. The sale of
outfits at Seattle is stupendous, and Canadians
are crying out that their Government is afraid
to stop the Americans from robbing the Do
minion OF her gold.
The Chambers Of Commerce Of British Co
lumbia jointly telegraphed to the Canadian
Government yesterday that unless the United
States, discontinued charging SO a day to
Canadians to conduct them across the strip of
alleged disputed territory at Skagway and

closed to Americans. The following telegram
