HIS REASON FOR DELAY

| HERALD Bureau, HILLsBoRO, N.
NJ, June 2. Special to the HERALD
Pat G srrett was on the stand all the
morning. His entrance into the court

Witness had made many attempts to
serve warrants on Lee aud Gillilsnd

He was positive that Kearney and Lee
opened the fight, but Kearney fred

FAMINE
IN IRON
The Unprecedented Demand
For The Great Staple
Sends Prices Up
SW AMPBD With ORDERS
In the Report From All Steel
And Iron Mills And Re-
publican Prosperity
Is Upon Us.

CHICAGO, June 2.--Because of what
is pronounced to be an unprecedented
famine in iron prices of all manufac-
tured goods into which the great staple
enters are soaring to dizzy heights.
The increase ranges from 10 to 1OC
per cent and every class of consumers
is affected, from the railroad that buys
locomotive to the householder who in
vests in lawn mower.
The conditions are said to be ripe not
only for a continuance of the top notch
figures, but for quotations higher still,
as the consum ption shows no sign of
diminuition.
Steel and rolling mills, blast furnaces
and iron founders are swamped with
orders. The pig iron on hand at pres
ent is not enough to provide for q
week. consumption.
The improvement in general trade
conditions with the accompanying ac-
tivity in all lines is the only reason the
trade authorities advance for the boom.

To Be Discussed BY Presi-
dents Council Of The
General Federation
A STRONG OPPOSITION
From Many Leading Woman's S
Clubs To the Suggestion
That Clubs Form State
Unions Only.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, June 2.-Muct
interest is being manifested among
club women in the meeting of the
presidents council of the general fede
ration which opened here for a three
doys' session this morning.
State officers, directors, and vice
presidents to the number of several
hundred were present when the gath
ering was called to order by Mrs.
Rebecca D. Lowe, of Atlanta.
The opening session which was taken
up with routine business was followed
by q luncheon provided by the
Alumnae ASSOCIATION of the Girls Nor
NAL and high schools. The afternoon
was spent in visiting places of historic
interest about the city and the real
business of the session was consequent
ly deferred until the gathering reas-
sembles tomorrow.
A discussion of the programme for
the Milwaukee biennial will be held,
but the interest of those present cen
ters chiefly in the lively discussion ex
pecteG over what Is termed the
Worcester proposition.
A proposition has been made by q
large club of Worcester, Mass, that
the local clubs Withdraw from the gen.
eral federation. retaining their mem
bership only through the state fedora
tions While this would greatly sim
plify the plan of organization and work
of the federation the proposition has
nevertheless met with vigorous opposi-
ton from certain well known clubs that
are reluctant to give up their direct
representation for the general good.
While the proposal is not of recent
origin, having been made and rejected
at the Louisville convention in 1896. it
has recently been agitated more effec-
lively than ever before and it is consid
cred impossible for the present council
to adjourn without taking tome action
in regard to the matter.
