Strike at stock Yards at an End.

Chicago, June 27.-It was announc-
ed by the packers this morning that
the stock yards strike was settled last
night, and that the men were all back
at work today. The strikers in the
several departments were given an in
crease in wages. Armour IL Co.
issued n statement saying that the
wages now are fully up to those paid
in 1898, which was the highest ever
paid.
1t appears the packers were mis-
taken in supposing that all trouble
had ended. While the unskilled men
returned to work those in several
other departments struck, crippling
the work. Several hundred painters
struck this morning for an advance.
1t is believed that the packers, rather
than have a general strike at this sea-
son, will grant the demand.

BoERs STRONGLY DENOUNCED.
Kruger's Misgovernment q fostering Sore
Critical Point Has Been Reached.

After denouncing in the strongest
terms the attitude and actions of the
Beers. with great deliberation and en-
phasis. Chamberlain said: The Trans
vaaFs enormous secret service fund has
procured IL friends and advocates in ev-
cry country. The way the British sub
3ect there is treated is not only a menace
to them all. but interferes with our
prestige among the natives, who now
regard the Beers and not the British
as the paramount power. Beside the
breaches of the London convention the
Transvaal is fiagrantly violating the
equality that convention was intended
10 secure. Its misgovernment is
fostering sore. poisoning the whole at
mosphere of South Africa.
-Four times since independence was
granted we have been on the verge Of
war with the Transvaal. 1t is erroneous
to say the British government wants
war. but il is equally erroneous to say
that the government will draw back
now that it has put its hand to the
plow. We hope the efforts that are-now
being made Will lead to an amicable ar
rangement. for Great Britain only de-
sires justice: but there comes a time
when patience can hardly be distin-
guished from weakness, and when moral
pressure becomes a farce that cannot
be continued without loss of self-re-
spect / trust that time may never come
in this instance. but if il does Britons
Will insist upon the means to find a re-
suit essential TO the peace of South
Africa"
The speech was warmly applauded
In reply to a vote Of thanks Chamber
lain said he had spoken from the heart
because he believed they had reached a
critical turning point in the history of
the empire. and that the whole world
was watching to see how they would
issue from the difficulty

AT THE PEACE CONFERENCE.
GerInany Accepts Arbitration, but Will
Have None of Disarmament.

London. June 27.-The correspondent
of The Daily News at The Hague says:
THE German delegates yesterday
privately informed their colleagues that
they had received Instructions to accept
the principle of a permanent tribunal
of arbitration as outlined in the Anglo
American plans. This and the speech of
Colonel Gross Won Schwarzhoff, plainly
intimating that Germany had made up
her mind against the Russian idea of
disarmament and had reached the con-
clusion that the time had arrived to tell
the world so, are the twoi great events
of the whole conference Neither has
been published as an official act of the
German government, b1t everybody
knows that Germany viii not recede
from the position taken up.
Il interviewed many delegates, some
friendly to Germany. others hostile.
They We're unanimous IN declaring the
SchwarZhon speech n smashing blow.
The effect was tremendous within the
conference when Schwarzhoff pointedly
exclaimed: Germany is rot ruined. on
the contrary her wealth, cont ntentedness
and standard of life The used these
English words1 are daily increasing
Altogether his speech was the great
nobody expecting Germany to reject the
Russian proposals in so brusque and un-
conditional a manner.

Washington. June. 27---The presi-
dent conferred with Alger on the Otis
cable of yesterday describing the sit
uation in the Philippines, and in
which Otis asked for an effective force
of 80, 600.
As Is per cent of his force is unfit
for duty, the lack will have to be sup
piled by forwarding men, and as the
number Of sick is likely to be in
creased the department will be under
the necessity of keeping up a steady
flow of recruits to the island.
Recruiting officers reports indicate
the ability to supply thousand men

believed, Ito meet Otis needs. AL

Pana, Ills. June 29.-An state troops

conference wi n Major Cabanis. COM
mander of the troops. and Sheriff Dow
rey. decided to place on duty 100 special
police. who are patrollirg every street.
All mires have been closed and the ne
groes are taking their departure as rap

Many blacks are patrolling the streets
in a boisterous manner, making threats
against the lives of the operators. who
they claim by closing their mines in
tentionally threw them out of employ
ment. which they aver is not according
with their contract.
The general opinion seems TO be that
the closing of the mines coming with
the removal of troops was in accordance
with an understanding between Govern
or Tanner and the operators. meaning
the disposal of the colCred labor from
the south as well as the troops. and the
final settlement of the strike. Everybody
is anticipating trouble again between
the whites and blacks before n final
settlement

ANY Ono Would Do.

Bishop Lawrence of Massachusetts,
tells good story ON himself and Presi-
dent Eliot of Harvard. When Phillips
Brooks was elected bishop, President
Eliot met DR.. Lawrence. who was then
dean of the Episcopal Theological school
at Cambridge and said to him: 1.-The
church has made the greatest mistake of
lifetime. Brooks was the pivot around
which we revolved in Boston. Now you
have spread him all over the state. ANY
one would have done for bishop
Years after, when Phillips Brooks
had gone to his reward and Dean Law
renee had been chosen in his place, he
met President Eliot in the street again.
The latter was warm in his congratula-
tions- MY dear bishop" he said, II
inust congratulate you. The church
couldn't have made better selection. I
thought you should have been the choice
when Brooks was chosen

After my second child l had very
good health until last winter when /

very much and miscarried. / came
very near dying. and the doctor said
must have an operation, which fright
ened me very much, and concluded to
write to you for your advice, and take
your medicine. Was troubled with the
whites, great pain in back and hips,
sometimes when lying down or sitting
was unable to get up. Would have
such pain in groins could hardly walk.
II can say l have never seen any
thing so wonderful as Lydia E. Pink

wonders for me. Hoping that many
of Inv suffering sisters may be led to
take your medicine from reading this
