POLES OPPOSE ALLIANCE.

Meet In Chicago and Declare Agalnse
Any Deal with Great Brlt.ia
CHICAGO. July 1.-THE Polish resi-
dents of Chicago. at a meeting here
last night, denounced the Anglo
American alliance.
In opposition to the promoters OF
the meeting and in favor of the Anglo
American alliance, John NJ. Sienkie-
wicz made q bitter speech, in which
he pleaded with those present to
stand by America and Poland first.
before protesting against alliances
with the English people, who have
always been in sympathy with Po-
land and her cause. He said that
though the Poles as liberty-loving
people will always stand ready
to help the Irish people, yet he
claimed that they must first stand by
Poland and her cause, which. In q
way, would be furthered by indorsin9
and favoriug Americas alliance with
England. He urged that the reason
for the alliance was the near struggle
of England with Russia, in which
event the Poles would have a chance
for liberty. for England and America
joined together would annihilate the
Russian power. The Irish people
would, in that event. side with Rus
sia, Poland's enemy. because Russia's
victory over England would mean
freedom to Ireland. The result of his
speech was that when the resolutions
were offered opposing the alliance of
America with England, those present
were about equally divided on the
vote.
Mass meetings for and against tho
alliance will be organized all over the
city among the Poles, and resolutions
of protest and Endorsement will be
sent to Washington by the Poles

belonging to him. Fisher is in Jail

arrival at Little Rock Mrs. Fisher left
him and went to her brothers home
Fisher got lawyers aid and after .
few weeks his wife gave him 5000 and
he returned to Sedalia, resuming his
work as q rag picker. Fishers
friends persuaded Mrs Fisher to re-
turn to him, and she came to Sedalia
Friday, but brought only 5000 with
her. This led to quarrels and at 2
o'clock this morning Fisher shot his
wife in the right leg because she
would not turn over the remainder of
the money he had given into her
keeping. The woman now says she
gave 1t to her brother at Little Rock.

woke up from dream Of being chokedi

most stided she threw on her wrap
per and cropping her way to the door

The house was . double one and the

and the other tenants, whose careless,

sitting by the neighbor's hearth she
wept silently and dared not look into
the future.
Early in the morning Mr.. Hope
heard the news.
He remembered it was by his advice
that all the milliner's money was in
vested in that now ruined stock. Poor
little woman! What could he do for
her? He could not offer her money or
home. A home? Why not? He
smiled at the thought and the little,
milliner's sweet face. sweet though no
longer youthful. appeared to him with
new charm. Hastily leaving his house
he sought and found Miss Jane.
When he asked her to marry him

AN IRON FOUNDRY AT SEA.

Tho Usual Luxuries Of Such Work
Ashore Entirely Missing.
A foundry at sea had not been heard
of before the cruise of the Vulcan. says
the Engineering Magazine. Whatever
other kind Of naval repair work had
been executed heretofore on board
ship. that Of making large brass and
iron castings had not been attempted,
In her facilities for this new line OF
work the Vulcan stands pre-eminent;;
and alone. That the unique equipment
for foundry work was successful IS
more than shown by the fact that thou,
sands of pounds of iron and brass cast,
ings were made and finished for the
ships of the fleet. The brass furnaces:
were kept in almost constant service,
sometimes running OF two heats q,

the work far into the night, much to.
the discomfort Of the men, who were
trying to get some sleep and rest be7
fore another days work. In Iron cast
ing not more than one heat was rum
of in a day, and that usually about 3
o'clock In the afternoon. For after
filling the molds and dropping bottom,
it was practically impossible to do
much more In that part Of the ship till
the next morning. Kipling has sung
for the Scotch engineer and stoker, but
there was no heaven-born genius on
board the Vulcan to treasure up the
memories and scenes incident to drop
ping bottom. The usual luxuries OF
such ashore were entirely missing.
Like the fiery furnace of old. the heat
seemed seven times more intense than
1t was wont to be ashore.

woman and her one helper were kept
busy the first few days and Miss Jane
thought her visions of success were
not so unfounded as to be ridiculous,
for money flowed freely into her cof-
fers. But after the first excitement

there was plenty Of spare time for

Mr.. Hope sat In the pew just In

and held her hymnbook while they
both sang. At such times she felt

to repress 1t and say her responses rev.

when Mr.. Hopes pew overflowed.
Fall came on apace and the little
milliner found it necessary to consult
the banker again. This time she told
him she had 500 in money. but not
another penny. Would he advise her
to turn this into flowers and feathers
