The painters strike in this city becomes
more serious each day and the stand of the
contending parties farther removed from
each other. Another effort was made by in
terested parties yesterday TO settle the mat
ter on the basis of the master painters ulti-
matum, that they were ready to treat as
soon as the boycott was removed from
Fertig & Kevers. The statement is made,
however, that the men refused to listen to
any other proposition than a discussion of
the right of the union to discipline its own
members in any way it may see fit to do so.
The man who interviewed the painters yes
terday, while not stating that all the mem
bers of the union were for sticking to heroic
measures, said that the more aggressive of
the men dominated the councils of the union
and were set on fighting the matter to the
end. The state labor commissioners were
also unable to do anything with them yes
terday, although Commissioner Mccormack
who is a union man in good standing, pre-
sented the case in fair manner for all
concerned. In view of the fact that the
master painters are able to turn out all the
work they can find TO do at this season it
is thought that unless some step is taken by
the men to settle the matter soon the union
will lose what standing it has among the
employing painters of the city for some
time to come.

IRISH PUGILIST LOST
DIXON, THE COLORED BOY, AWARD
ED THE HONORS OF THE BOUT.
Dave SulIivan's Brother Jack Was
ImpuIsive and Stupid. and the Ref

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-Through the unlocked

Jack" Dave Sullivan, the little Irish pugilist,
lost the bout with George Dixon, the coored
feather-weight champion. tonight, at the Lenox
Athletic Club. The lads We're matched to go
twenty-five rounds at 122 pounds, and for ten
rounds Dixon had the call. He was SulIivans
master in nearly every instance, but in the tenth
round he more than outpointed his adversary. A
left-hand hook from Dixon, which caught Sullivan
on the head. almost put Dave out of the business,
but he pulled himself together, only to go to the
floor near the ropes from push. This occurred
very near the end of the round and Jack Sullivan
evidently thought that time was up. While Dave
was trying to regain his feet, Jack jumped
through the ropes and then ran back again. A
moment later, just as Dave stood erect Jack
jumped into the ring again and ran over to the
referee shouting: ''Time is up!'' "Time is upi'
Jimmy Covile, of Boston. who was referee
looked at the impulsive youngster in amazement
and then spoke to the timekeeper, who said:
1.-TWO forty, only and then Colville waved his
hands so to tell every that the bout was
over. Sullivan could not understand what was up,
as Dixon made effort to go at him,-and then
the whole ching flashed on him. He appealed to
the referee to let him continue, but ColviHes
hands were tied, and, under the rules, he had no
alternative. This sudden termination OF the fight
was a sad disappointment TO the spectators. as
Sullivan was not beaten when the hasco occurred,
and would undoubtedly have gone on for several
rounds. but Dixon had such advantage at the
time that there is question that he would have
received the decision IL the bout had gone the
limit. Dixon was not quite fast of yoTe,
hut he equally clever, and at no time dur
ing the contest did Sullivan have the upper hand.

Hustled Harper Mrs. Harper has been re-,
siding In Rochester with Miss Anthony for
the past two years, engaged in the prepara-
tion of this work. which is the most i'm
portant addition to the history of the woman
suffrage question yet made. Mrs. Harper Sc
lected for her reading such parts as would
give an idea of the scope of the work
There We're extracts from Miss Anthonv's
diary, when she was attending a Quaker
boarding school near Philadelphia. at the
age of seventeen, which showed the rigid
discipline and severity toward the youth Of
that day: few pages were devoted to Miss
AnthonyS experience in teaching and to
what Mrs. Harper called that period of her
fashionable career when she was interested
in dress and beaux." The part relative t6
larly interesting. Miss Anthony was sur
rounded with reformers. Her father was a
about his as Wendell Phillips. Frederick
Douglass. Elizabeth Cady Stanton and
others There was a period of unrest all
over the country. Gold had been discovered
in California; the first bin in New York
State had been passed allowing women to
own property and this was a rift in the
common law; the first woman's rights con-
vention had been called and the country
was dividing on the slavery question. Fred
erick Douglass had established the North
Star, in Rochester, Miss Anthony's home:
the fugitive slave law had been passed and
drunkenness was at its height. Miss An
thony was interested in all of these and her
friends were all reformerS She left her
school teaching and took up temperance
work; this was followed by labor on anti
slavery and then came her work for WOn1-
ans rights. Included in the recital of the
rights was the history of the bloomer cos
tune. The women who wore it were perse-
Cuted and their appearance on the streets
was the signal for the mob to attack them
until they had to take shelter in stores and
buildings They were chased and then We're
ostracised until they found that the costume
was injuring their cause and they dispensed
with it. Mrs. Harper read a letter which was
written by Miss Anthony in 1889 which,

suffrage question. The reading closed with

SPAIN WILL GET LITTLE.
May Not Receive Over $1,OOO,OOO for
the PhiIipnines.

NEW YORK, Nov. ia dispatch to the
Herald from Washington says: Instead
of paying Spain $40OOOOOO as an indemnity
for the cession of the Philippine islands to
the United States President Mckinley in
tends to reimburse her only for the debt Of
about $1,OOO,0OO contracted for public i'm
provements. President Mckinley and his
Cabinet have carefully noted that the sent-
ment expressed throughout the country by
the elections has been in opposition to the
suggestion to indemnify Spain to the eX-
tent first proposed. What will be paid by
the United States, according to the present
intention of the President is the debt con-
tracted by Spain for the establishment of
lighthouses, harbor Improvements and pub
lie buildings All told this does not amount
to a very large sum, being fixed at about
81, 900 600.
Friends of Spain in the diplomatic corps
say that it is an outrage for the President
to offer such q small sum. Perhaps it
would be the best thing for Spain if she
should rid herself of the Philippines, said
one of these gentlemen, but surely it is
not right that the United States should
satisfy only a small portion of the debt
leaving her with the remainder on her hands
and with a low treasury to meet it, -

KOkOmO Concern That Gets Its GOOb-

ers from the Philippines.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
KOKOMO, Ind, Nov. 1.-THE Spanish
wac has given impetus to a struggling little
factory in this city. A year ago Lane Bros,
of this place, discovered a process for max
ing butter from peanuts. The American
grown nuts were found not suitable and the
Spanish nuts grown in the Philippines were
tried. The latter filed the bill, but owing
to the expense the butter from them could
not be made to compete with the milk
product Now that the Eastern islands are
to become a part of Uncle Sans dominion
and the Philippine nuts can be obtained
cheaper a factory has been erected in this
city for the extensive manufacture of pea
nut butter, the plant being near large
dairy barn with the COW on the one side of
the road and the peanut on the other Strug-
Cling tor ascendency. The inventor of the
vegetable butter makes no secret of his
process. he buys Spanish peanuts by the
shipload and with a device turns them into
butter. The process is simple. The nuts
are carefully hand picked and every bad
one thrown cut, after which they go into q
cracker bakers rotary oven and are roasted
to a rich aromatic nut brown. Again they
are gone over to pick out the scorched and
brown kernels. After seeing that every seed
left is perfect the nuts are thrown into the
grinding hopper and ground as fine the
finest hour, but it is not flour. The oil in
the peanuts gives it the consistency of but
ter, and butter it is then and there, nothing
more being added. The product resembles
butter not only in appearance, but in taste
and smell. Not a thing but peanut enters
into its composition, not even salt. In color,
flavor, appearance and general consistency

clans who have used 1t pronounce it whole

nut milk or cream may be made by reducing
the butter with water, ranging all the way
from the richest jersey cream to the bluest
milk, the latter making a wholesome drink.

the results will encourage continental pow
erS to increase hostility toward the anneXa-
ton of the Philippines by the United States,
although they doubt that there will be any
more serious Intervention than acrimonious
protests, las the powers are aware that
Great Britain would not allow the United
States to be overcome by a hostile coali-
tion''
The Spectator says: ''The statesmen of
the continent universally fear the advent of
the United States in European politics. They
cannot rid their heads of the idea that if
they stand together, as when they coerced
Japan, America will similarly yield. But
their representations at Washington are
likely to irritate greatly the national pride
of the Americans, leading to a universal
support of President Mckinley in a reply,
which however moderate in tone, will in
effect be a clear defiance. The excessive
fear felt of an Anglo-SaXon alliance is
shown by the fact that the whole continent
sees in Lord Salisbury's Guild Hall refer
ences to America all manner Of menaces."
