ANDERSON. Ind, Aug 2S.-A decided SEN
sation was sprung to-day when the Wire
Nail Trust announced its intention Of start
ing its plants in this city, which have been
closed down for the past month because
the men refused to accept wage reductions
ranging as high as 10 per cent. The men
are being called in one at a time and told
that the trust means business now; that
1t intends to start the plants at once: that
individually the men can accept at once
their old positions and return to them, and
in case the old men do not return other
men will be shipped in that can do the
work. 1t is understood that there has been
no break among the workers and that the
six hJDdred strikers stand solid and will
fight to the last 1t is learned through I'M
official sources that the trust is ready to
ship in Alabama negroes and Hungarians
on twenty-four hours notice and will oper-
ate with them. They have built a fourteen
foot solid plank fence and barb-wire barri-
cade around their plants and are ready to
take care of the men inside. They attempt
ed these methods at Cleveland last week,
with poor success, and failed on the same
methods at Salem. 1T is thought that the
entire city will rise and protest against
such a move. The men are very quiet now
and are well organized In all of the trust
mills. Most of the plants are closed and
the men in the others are organized and
ready TO go out on call. Meetings are be-
ing held tonight.

WASHINGTON Aug 2S.-A few days ago
Secretary Alger issued order to General
II. V. Boynton now at Chickamauga Park,
to make thorough and searching investi-
CATION of all the hospitals in Camp Thomas
and to report instantly any lack Of atten-
ton to the inmates, any inefficiency in the
medical officers or any need of supplies of
whatever kind. General Boynton's atten-
ton was directed to the sensational charges
made by one DIR. Terry against the con-
duct of the hospitals at Camp Thomas, and
he was urged to make a prompt report of
the exact conditions as he should find them.
Tonight the following telegram was re-
ceived by Adjutant General Corbn:

tails under secretary's order Results ex-
ceedingly favorable in all essential features.

qualities should be sent to London. 1t is

cal ends, and only the peculiar character

personal character and admitted abilities,
command the highest respect in the diplo-
matte circles of Europe. He is just the
man who is needed at this time, when
new international policy is enforced upon
our government.
One of the unfortunate features of our
diplomatic service is that our representa-
tives abroad are not compensated sufficient
ly to enable them to live as representatives
of much lesser governments live in the
leading capitals of Europe, and ex-Presi-

exactions. We doubt not. however, that III

a trained diplomatic service. Heretofore we
have had little to do with the diplomatic
complications of Europe. and only when we
became involved in difficulties with partic-
ular governments was experienced diplo-
macy a supreme necessity. AS rule, we
have met such emergencies by the appoint

perative qualifications for foreign missions.
