Harlem Observations of the Liking of tho

MANY people living In flats In Harlem have
been complaining recently Of mice In their

quite still when the piano is being played. but
scamper about at other times. Occasionally
when the player has stopped for a few minutes
the mouse begins to race up and down the
strings. This is apt to be alarming II the
player Is woman. In some parts Of the Harlem
fiat district residents have come to know when
a mouse is discovered In the piano. The dis
covery is always announced by shrieks from
the women and a sourrying across the floor.
As a rule the mouse escapes. and It Is some
times a week before the woman will 20 near

Literature to Be Dropped and John

Iy-Other Business Interests.

NEW YORK, Nov. @.-John W. Harper,
of the firm of Harper & Bros, who assigned
yesterday TO the State Trust Company, said
to-day that the members of the Harper
family will soon meet the officers of the
trust company and representatives Of other
creditors for the arrangement Of the bust
ness. 1t Is believed that all the creditors
will give the Harpers their active support.
The periodical publications of the house will
be continued, with the exception Of Litera-
ture in its American form. The firm will
probably return to its earlier policy, that
of importing an imprint edition of this
English weekly. The editor of Literature
in this country. John Kendrick Bangs, has
editor of the Bazaar has yet been appoint
ed to succeed Mrs. Sangster. The circula-
ton of the Monthly, President Harvey stat
ed to-day. has been favorably affected by
the reduction of price. An annual reduction
OF $4,000 in the expenses of the house has
also been effected. chiefly by reducing SAL
aries. Mr.. Page and DR.. Findley have
joined the staff of the Doubleday q Mcclure
Company, and from that firm may be ex-
pected the promised encyclopedia and the
new lO-cent magazine.
President Harvey states that the North
American Review will not be added to the
publications of Messrs. Harper * Bros,
but Will remain am Independent enterprise.
Modern machinery will be substituted for
the old-fashioned Harper plant, and the
saving thus effected will be large.

twelve days of tiresome and tech

court and counsel. Five hundred and four
talesmen were examined, but only fifteen
could stand the test, a large majority of the
candidates for the jury box being ruled out
because of conscientious scruples concerning
capital punishment, circumstantial evidence
and expert testimony. OF the fifteen tales
men who were accepted three, Daniel
Fraad. Abraham Altmeyer and Morris
Braude, were eventually excused by the re-
corder or the ground of Ill health.

ADMIRAL wATsoN.s REPORT.
The Capture of yizan by Marines
from the Battleship Oregon.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-The following
cablegram has been received at the Navy
Department from Admiral Watson, dated
Cavite. Nov. %:
wilde reports the capture Of Vigan on
Nov rs, by the Oregon's landing force under
Lieutenant Commander McCracken with
Lieutenants Mccormick, Bostwick, john
ston, Captain Williams and Lieutenant
Bermeleye OF the marine corps. The land
ing was covered by the Callao, Tappan
commanding, and the Samar, Muslin COM
manding. Slight resistance; no casualties.
Inhabitants welcomed the flag. McCracken
is holding Vigan until relieved by the army.
Lieutenant Gilmore is well, with seven men

Sosichen, a newspaper artist, who was with
Gilmore seven months and escaped. Brought

Crdanetao crew were killed, except the four
following, Farey, Greene, Power, Burk.
Names OF the Gilmore party are Walton,
yandoit. Ellsworth. Brisolese, Anderson.
Edwards, Peterson. Some wounded were left
at Balar. Gilmore has no news from them.
The above dispatch taken in connection
with the advices received to-day from Cen
.eral Otis, describing the success of the
movements of the army under Young. en-
cOurageS the naval officials in the belief
mat perhaps Dy TINS time the American
prisoners referred to have already been re-
leased. With the naval contingent at
Vigan, only twenty-five miles away TO the
west and the army advance probably little
further distant TO the southeast, the town of
Pangued is nearly surrounded and there is
little chance for the escape of the insurgent
force there IL they attempt 10 cucumber
themselves in their retreat with the prison
ers. Taking the list Of prisoners OF Gilmore's
party given in the cable from Admiral Wat
son as being at Bangued, the records of
the Navy Department show that the follow
ing men must have been left at Balar. on
the east coast of the island. where the
YorktOwn's boats crew was captured last
spring. John Dillon, Charles A. Morissey.
Ora b. Mcdonald, William n. Rynders,

Altogether the news from both army and
naval sources to-day is highly encouraging
20 the officials here. as indicating the prac-
tical end of the opposition of the insurgents
I'm the north Of Luzon. So far as known
the only formidable force Is that left In
Cavite province under General Tryan, and
that operating in Panay.

RECOGNITION OF UNION
BY GLASS
FROM TABLEWARE TRUST.
Independent Plants to Open Next
dered in the Kansas District.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Nov. 29.-At a confer
ence which has lasted several days. the
National Glass Company. otherwise known
as the tableware combine tonight
granted unexpected concessions TO the
American Flint Glass Workers Union,
which insures the men a material advance
and recognition of the union by the manu-
facturers. The original demand OF the
workers was for a 10 per cent. advance on
the present wage scale and recognition.
The agreement reached tonight gives to all
workers an advance of at least D per cent.
and recognition of the union. 1t was agreed
that nonunion men should receive advances
ranging from 10 to 80 per cent, in order to
put their wages on an equality with the
union men. Over 5000 men are affected by
the settlement and a protracted strike has
been averted.
