THE PRESIDENT IMPROVING.

Greatly Benefited by the Baths at Hot
Springs, Va.
Hot Springs, Va, May 1.-THE re-
assuring news forwarded from Apia by
Admiral Kautz was a source of relief
to the president The extent to which
he is being allowed freedom from Of
fetal cares is evidenced by the fact that
not even this welcome information
was forwarded to him, his knowledge
of the fact being given through the
press representatives here. The presi-
dent expressed his pleasure over the
renewed assurances that the Samoan
situation is so peaceful. With the
tripartite commission now at the ISL
ands further bloodshed is not antici-
pated.
Whether it is the effect of his alb
solute relaxation from duties, the dry
atmosphere, or is the result of his
medicinal bath yesterday morning,
this treatment having been begun yes
terday or of them all, the president is
recuperating rapidly. A gentleman who
has known him for many years after
seeing him yesterday said he never
knew the president to appear to be
in better health.
Friends of the executive are much
annoyed by stories that Mr.. Kinley is
smoking excessively and injuriously.
Friends in our new island possessions
have sent him quantities of cigars OF
various brands, but they have remain
ed untouched. An after peal cigar
is source of thorough enjoyment to
the president, but he does not indulge
himself to an extent that is harmful.
A number of commissions were sign
ed by the president yesterday, most of
them being" army promotions.

GENERAL FUNSTON'S STATE PRIDE.

Kansas Can Be Found sin the Vicin-
1ty Of the Band WaRon.''
Kansas City, May 11.-Under date
Of Stanford University, CAL, The Star
prints excerpts from letter from
Brigadier General Frederick Funston,
whose brilliant work with the Twen-
tieth Kansas regiment in the Philip
pines has won him fame, to Professor
s. l.. Kellogg, fellow student in the
Kansas State university. In his letter,
which is dated April 10, the Kansan
gives the first intimation SO far made
by him regarding political career.
He says:
II cannot think there is much in the
talk about doing the handsome thing
by me. Politically the rank and file
of the Republican party might be will
ing, but how about the bosses? There
are mighty few Offices that l would
have, and the one or two in the gift
of the people of Kansas l have not the
gall to ask for"
General Funston apparently remem-
bers some of the criticisms in connec-
ton with his Cuban campaign when he
says: Nov I have proven a dozen
times at the risk Of my life that /
am not fake" and 1t is his main hope
that his record in the Philippines may
satisfy the former critics. Continuing
General Funston mentions some Of the
battles in which he and his men en-
gagged in in the Philippines, saying:
I'VE had number of good stiff
fights, in which all Of the troops be-
haved splendidly and carried every
thing before them. Kansas can always
be counted on out here to take place
In the vicinity of the band wagon"

MILL WORKERS WAGE SCALE.
The Employers Arc Urging Speedy
Settlement This Year.

The Employers Arc Urging Speedy
Settlement This Year.
Pittsburg, May 11.-Contrary to the
usual routine of wage settlements in
the iron, steel and tinplate industries.
conferences on the new lists will be
held this year in Detroit Immediately
following the adjournment of the ma
tional convention of the Amalgamated
Association Of Iron, Steel and Tin
plate Workers which will be about
May 80 The manufacturers desire an
early conference and prompt settle
ment this year. They want to abolish
the usual summer suspension, which is
inaugurated on June l, the time the
Amalgamated scales expire, and con-
tinues until the new rates are agreed
upon and the lists signed, which usu
ally means a full month or six weeks.
Under the stress Of market demand
this year the manufacturers are I'M
able to keep their mills closed for
such a period. They are already far
behind in their orders, and close
down lasting from four to six weeks
in the summer season would mean the
loss of trade from which they could
not recover during the balance of the
year. If prompt settlement of the
wage scales is made at Detroit it will
be the first time in many years that
the organized mill workers have been
steadily employed during the summer
months.

A COMPROMISE IN SIGHT,.
End OF the Buffalo Strike Seems Near
at Hand.

End OF the Buffalo Strike seems Near
at Hand.
Buffalo. May 1.-THE trouble be-
tween Contractor Corners and the
grain shovelers lie nearer settlement
today than at any time since the ship
ping season opened. The prospects
now are that before the end Of the
week the whole matter will be straight
ened out, the grain blockade will be
raised and the men will be at work.
Between the time when the meeting
Of the grain shovelers, at which Bishop
Quigley submitted his report Of the
Monday night conference with the
Lake Carriers, ended yesterday after
noon and 10 o'clock last night the
aspect of the situation changed COM
pletely. In the afternoon the grain
shovelers and their leaders and ad-
visers apparently were firm in their
determination to accept no compro-
mise. Today the leaders seem pre-
pared to make terms along the lines
laid down IN the last proposition made
by the Lake Carriers, which provided
for the appointment Of general SUI
perintendent, who should have entire
charge of the unloading Of grain at
this port, and who was to be appointed
by Bishop Quigley and paid by the
Lake Carriers association, Mr.. Con-
ners, the present contractor, merely to
draw his commission until the end of
the year, when his contract expires.
This change of attitude WAS brought
about by conference held at Bishop
Quigley's residence last night. After
the conference Bishop Quigley said:
1.-THE Indications are that settle
ment will be reached very soon. The
leaders are In a much better DISPOSE
ton, and appear to be prepared to &C.
cept reasonable terms. The COM
mittee will meet here again tomorrow
night. l think arrangements looking
to settlement of the trouble will be
made then"

RAILROADS AND COAL MINES
Individual Operators Dictated To b.
the transportation Companies.

Individual Operators Dictated To by
the transportation Companies.
Washington, May 11.-R. @. Brooks,
Of Scranton, Pa, and Walter ]. Null
lin, of Wooster. o.. were before the
Industrial commission yesterday. Both
are mine owners in their respective
localities. Both complained Of the dis
elimination of the railroads which own
coal mines. and both spoke favora5ly
Of the labor organizations.
Mr. Brooks said that in the anthra-
cite regions nearly all the railroad
companies control coal mines either In
their own behalf or for their officers.
The competition which this condition
Of affairs caused was very disadvan-
tageous to the independent coal mine
operators. The Independent mine
owners had nothing to do with fixing
the price of their product, as the rail-
road companies insisted upon doing
that service for them. The railroads
could afford to lose money in the mines
they run because of the profit they
secure in carrying coal. This fact al
lowed them to depress the profits of
the Independent operators to very
low level. The railroad companies had
the power to fix the price 80 that they
could close every Independent opera
tor, but did not exercise it, he sup
posed, because it would be too fragrant
. violation of what was right, and
would result in legal restrictions
which would break their power. They
preferred merely to allow the indie
pendent miners to exist, and their low
prices forced the mine operators to
grind down prices for mining coal.
Mr.. Mullin also complained of the
competition of the railroad owners Of
coal mines and of their exorbitant
prices for transportation. The opera
tons of the labor organizations, Mr..
Mullin said, had been in the interest
of the mine owners, because they in
sured more stable prices and a certain
security in many ways which could not
otherwise be had. Notwithstanding
their organizations. the wages of min
ers had decreased to the extent Of
about IL per cent in the past IL years.
This was due to the increase in the
output,

CHAPTER TX,
THE INTERPRETER.

To Mary's surprise the table was only
laid for two persons. 1t was essentially
o mans table; it was small and was
spread with nice clean cloth and SER
viettes; its dominant note was a cruet
stand.
"Take that seat" said Alan Stacey,
with gesture to chair. at will be
a simple lunch, warn you. If I eat a
big meal now, | am no good for the rest
of the day. Some people like regular
dinner at midday I believe it means
apoplexy if you only eat enough and
sleep soon enough afterward. What
have you today, John?"
"An omelet, sir" said John, land
cold beef and salad"
"a luncheon for king, if the ONE
let and salad are properly made. Don't
you think 80, Mrs. Conway9' said
Alan Stacey.
II do" said Mary, wondering
whether she ought to be honest and say
that dish of scrambled eggs was the
nearest approach to an omelet that she
had ever tasted in her life.
IT have little Frenchwoman who
makes both to perfection, he went on.
"some people like to make salad at
table. l don't. know several delight
full houses where it is the task of the
young ladies to dress the salad, and
they do it with diffidence which re-
suits in loathliness. Tell Maltids that
this omelet is excellent, John"
Every good, sir. )"
Mary ate her portion and allowed
herself to be persuaded into taking
little more, but she refused wine and
persisted in taking only water. 81 must
keep my head clear" she said firmly.
II want to do your work and myself
justice this afternoon.'
Alan Stacey tried hard to override
her, because, as he said, they ought to
have mild celebration of their first
days work and their first meal togeth-
er. It is true that he liked and respect
ed her the better that she held firmly to
her point.
s'When the book is finished, Mr.
Stacey" she said, "if you then think
my work worth celebrating, I will do
