Concessions the Carriers Offer.

Last night at a big meeting of the
grain shovelers. held at st. Budgets
hall, President Mcmahon made a report
of the doings of the conference commit
tees. He stated that the proposition
submitted by the grain shovelers had
been laid on the table by therspresenta-
tives of the Lake Carriers association,
and that the latter had made coun-
ter-proposition. The Lake Carriers, Nc
Mahon said, had agreed to accept all of
the terms contained in the proposition
of the grain shovelers with the ex-
ception of the abrogation of the con-
tract which Corners had. They had
agreed to take the entire supervision
of the work out of Corners hands, to
let Bishop Guisley appoint a superin-
tendent. to give the power to the grain
shovelers of appointing their own boss
scoopers. and they agreed to the ap-
pointment of a local board of arbitra-
ton.

Buffalo. y. Y, May 10.-while the
strike situation remains unchanged aft
er a day of great quietness there is
hope for a speedy settlement of the
trouble. The grain shoveiers are OBJ
durate in that they still persist that
nothing will satisfy them except aboli-
ton of contractors and midd emen- They
assert that they can furnish sufficient
bonds to guarantee that they them
selves can handle all of the grain which
is transported by the Lake Carriers
association But last night it was
learned that the Lake Carriers asso-
citation and Contractor Connors are will
ing to make concessions of a radical
kind of the scoopers-even more lib
eral than any yet announced. Bishop
Quigley, who was chairman of the con-
ference held Monday night, said last
night that he had his report of the pro-
ceedings prepared, and that it contained
no suggestions or propositions from
him other than those which were made
al the conference, and that the report
would be made public today.

The Suns Motion.

An astronomical fact now as former
~ causing no little perplexity to some
is that the suns motion-which un-
questionably and indisputably is ex-
tremely quick-does not change the
relative position of the solar system to
the fixed stars and the consultations
more than it actually does, and there
are some who on this account are in
clined to doubt the actual motion OF
the sun in space.
The investigations of astronomers
have nevertheless established one thing
as certain-namely, that the sun moves
through space at great speed-esti-
mated by some scientists at 16 miles q
second-carrying all the planets. satel-
lites and other cosmical bodies along
with it, but this motion of the vast
luminary. while affecting. Of course,
the real motion Of the planets in space,
does not in even the slightest degree
affect the relative motion Of sun and
planets.
Even under the supposition Of go
great rate as 10 miles in one second,
this relative position of the sun to the
fixed stars would, astronomers declare,
be hardly perceptible in a century. on
account of the almost inconceivable
distance Of the latter-the conclusion
being. therefore. that many thousands Of
years must pass before the suns proper
motion in space can change the conig
uration of the star groups

AS defensive weapon the value Of
the machete is small Even it's offensive
effect depends less on the weapon itself
than on the continual and skillfu]
usage made of it by the Cuban peasant
from his earlier age which inparts a
peculiar training to the muscles of the
wrist and arm of the operator. The
consequence of this skill is that when
ever quarrel occurs between two
''guajiros or ''monetros' they settle
the matter with their machetes as cour-
ageously and tenaciously as two game
cocks. and generally both parties are
seriously injured for life or are killed
on the spot.
Owing to this fact and to the nata
raj kindly disposition of the Cuban
peasants, they are not a quarrelsome
people and respect every body. to be
equally respected With the machete
few curious accessories are used. The
principal are thin strip Of leather
closely tied to the right wrist. a small
round piece of grinding stone to sharpen
the edge of the tool. and whenever the
machete is employed to cut down the
