EARLY NOMINAL PEACE.
Rebels Are Leaving Aguinaldo, TAX.
Ing Their Arms With. Them.

Rebels Are Leaving Aguinaldo, TAX
Ing Their Arms With: Them.
WASHINGTON, May 14-The belief is
current here that after few delays the
insurgents will lay down their arms and
disperse, at least during the rainy sea-
son. 1t is feared, however, that but a
small percentage of the troops under
Aguinaldo will actually deliver up their
arms, but while the negotiations are IN
progress one detachment after another
will quietly sneak off to the jungle or the
mountains, carrying with them the arms
and ammunition so universally dear to
the savage heart.
The process of disintegration, it is said,
has already begun, and it is believed to
be the real cause of the renewed over
lures for peace. 1t Is felt, however, once
the insurgents are broken UP into small
bands, although they may do something
in the guerrilla line they can never again
be massed in an army.
Aguinaldo had chance to concentrate
the insurgents around Manila when that
town was under the guns of Dewey 8
fleet and actfvels offensive operations by
the Spanish were out of the question.
Once his army is dissolved, however, it
will be impossible for him or any other
insurgent leader to organize another
compact army.
1t is believed the present overtures will
be pushed to conclusion, and at least
large fragment of the insurgents will
be disarmed AS to the rest. outbreaks
of small parties much like those of the
Sioux and Apaches will be expected for
months OF years.
Nominal peace, SO far as semi barbar-
Gus people can make 1t, is looked for be-
fore another week makes it's appearance.

WILL RETURN TO WORK.
Agreement Made for the Grain
ShOveIers Approved by the Men.

Agreement Made for the Grain
ShOveIers Approved by the Men.
BUFFALO, May 14.-The grain shovelers
will return to work Monday morning on
the agreement reached after / o'clock
this morning, at the conference between
representatives of the Lake Carriers, con-
tractors and shovelers. The agreement
was signed at the residence Of Bishop
Quigley. Attorney Goulder, Of Cleveland
acted for the Lake Carriers association
and Attorney George Cuneo, Of this city,
represented the shcvelers The agree
ment provides that the grain shoveiers
shall receive $1.S5 per LOCO bushels that
the contractor shall not receive another
mans pay; that superintendent shall
be appointed to guard the interests of
the men; that local board Of arbitra-
tors shall be appointed to pass upon any
grievance that may arise in the future
and that fourteen of Contractor Connors
boss scoopers shall be suspended, pend
ing an investigation into the charges that
they were identified with saloon or other
Objectionable business.
AT today's meeting of the shovelers the
agreement made at the conference was
approved. Some of the men, however,
are dissatisfied. Some little trouble is
expected from the discharge of the men
who took the strikers places. President
Mcmahon, of the grain shovelers' union.
said tonight that a good many Of the
new men would be received into the
union, but some would be rejected. There
are about 100000 bushels of grain afioat
here now. BY the middle of the week, it
is expected every boat in the harbor will
be cleared and future shipments of grain
will be handled expeditiously.

AGAINST THE CANTEEN.

Vigorous Resolutions.

First M. e. Church Adopts Some
Vigorous Resolutions.
At the First M. E. church yesterday
evening Rev. F. B. Cowgirl preached to
large congregation. The pastor present.
ed the following anti-canteen resolution,
which the congregation unanimously
adopted:
Whereas, The United States congress
in its recent session enacted a law abol-
fishing the army grog shop known as the
canteen, which law reads as follows:
THAT no officer Srivate soldier shall
be detailed to sell intoxicating drinks as
a bartender, or otherwise, in any post,
exchange or canteen, nor shall any other
person be required or allowed to sell such
liquors in encampment or fort, or any
premises used for military purposes by
the United States, and the secretary of
war is hereby directed to issue such gen
eral orders as may be necessary to carry
the pr row Of thld section into full
Whereas, Attorney General Griggs has
rendered an opinion which nullif1es the
law, and permits the demoralizing, DEATH
dealing canteen to operate practically the
same as it did before congress enacted
the law; and,
Whereas, The president has the uower
by virtue of his position as commander
in-chief of the army, to abolish the can
teen; therefore,
adherents of the First M e. church, in
our regular Sabbath morning service as
sembled, do in the name of God and the
homes of our land respectfully and ear
nestly urge upon President Mckinley the
such a way as to remove this dark stain
from our Christian civilization.
Resolved, That a copy of the resOlu-
| ton be forwarded to the president.

SAVED HER DOLLAR
BY Chasing the Street Car COnduc
tor to the Bridge.

BY Chasing the Street Car COnduc-
tor to the Bridge.
Chicago Chronicle.
These street car conductors have
troubles of their own. A conductor has
to struggle with a company rule that he
must get off his car and run ahead to
see If the track is clear at each railroad
crossing and must personally inspect
every bridge before his car crosses it..
To most passengers this rule is a famil-
lar one, but 1t was not known to a dear
old lady, who came in from Wauwatosa
to spend the day with her daughter AL
most Immediately after she had boarded
the crosstown car at East Water street
the conductor said, Fare, please" and
she handed him a dollar. The coin had
hardly dropped into his large red paw be-
fore he gave a convulsive start, jumped
frantically from the car and ran away
Thief, stop thief" screamed the old
lady in a panic of alarm. He has got
my dollar
With an agility remarkable in one of
her years, she sprang from her seat and
scrambled from the car In hot pursuit of
the blue-coated bell ringer, who had so
evidently robbed her. The car was not
in motion and she found him standing on
the bridge. Grabbing him iercely by the
arm she shook it with all the strength
she could muster crying excitediy:
What do you mean, sir? What do you
mean? Give me back my dollar
The conductor happened TO be a very
good fellow, with winning way about
him, but it took some time for him to
make explanations that would induce the
old lady to return to the car, and when
she had finished her trip 1t was evident
that she still had a lingering suspicion
that she would have lost the dollar and
the man had she not been so spry

Amliation In Favor.

There are a few Independent local
unions in st. Paul which have not affili-
ated, or do not now affiliate, with the
national organizations of their .respec-
tive trades. This fact is deplored by
members of the trades assembly and
earnest efforts are being made &c induce
them to strengthen not only themselves
but the federation, by afsiiiation 1t is
pointed out by labor leaders that the
great trusts are setting the example of
national organization, and that the only
way IN which the trusts can be success
fully combatted is by meeting them on
their own ground and on their own
terms. The prominent labor leaders plain
y show that a purely local union is not,
distinctly, organized labor. IL reduced to
the necessity of & strike they can COM
nand no outside assistance They cam
not, Justly, oppose the Introduction of
outside labor to supply their places, even
outside union labor, for the unions of
these unatfiliated workingmen are not
recognized by any authoritative head CEN
ter. In the general revival OF business
and activity in union circles it is believed
that before long there will not he a sin
gle unafhliated union in the city.

on board expressed great satisfaction.
Port Said came near being a stumbling
block on the voyage, as the canal officials
refused to take anything but gold in pay
ment of tolls. The difficulty, however, was
overcome by getting an English banker
to cash the quartermaster's draft. The
total distance covered by the trip was
II ,951h nautical miles, and the time re-
quired to make 1T thirty-three days and
eight hours. The GIANT left Manila
March rs, homeward bound. Because Of
the defective machinery and for other
reasons the ship was compelled to make
Shanghai, and arrived there on March
81 with barely ten tons of coal in the
bunkers. On the way home man died

quarantine officer at San Francisco as
saying that the Grant Is the cleanest ship
he has inspected in his two years service
there.
Other vessels are being fitted out by the
quartermaster's bureau for the transport
service to the Philippines and many I'M
provements over those now in use and
suggested by the brief experience already
obtained are being made so as to insure
the health and comfort of the men en-

YEAR OF JUBILEE.
PapaI Bull Decreeing 1t Is Expected
at Washington Soon.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-The papal
bull issued in Rome within the last few
days, decreeing that the year 1900 shall
be a jubilee year throughout the church,
Is expected here shortly, and will be an
nounced in all churches throughout the
country. The issuance of a bull on the
subject gives it special solemnity. 1t has
been the custom to hold jubilees of the
church every twenty-five years, and at
one time these were the occasion for
the gathering of a vast concourse at
Rome to receive the special DISPENSE
tons and indulgences allowed during jul
bilee years 1t is expected, however, by
the highest church authorities here that
the jubilee next year will be quite gen
orally celebrated throughout the world,
thus giving 1t more universal aspect,
instead of being centered in Rome,
though doubtless 1t will lead to many pill
grimages to Rome and the gathering
there of distinguished churchmen.
The jubilee next year is considered
more important than that held every
twenty-five years, as it ushers in a new
century and comes at a time when Pope
Leo is old and very feeble, his nine
tieth year having been completed in
March.

BARN FIRES IN PLENTY.

NefghborhoOd OF Twelfth and Cedar
Streets Has Some Excitement.
What is believed to have been an in
cendlary fire destroyed barn in the rear
or SS5 Cedar street shortly after II
o'clock last night, burned two horses and
also badly damaged a barn in the rear
of 5S5 Cedar street 4
Residents ms thesAneighborhood of the
flre were considerably frightened when
the flames burst from the barns, as the
houses are mostly frame and built closely
together 1t wasafeared that the fire
would spread, but the department got
control of the blaze quickly and allayed
apprehension.
The barn entirely destroyed, together
with the horses, wassrented by the Ma
tonal Laundry company. James Nanki-
veil, manager of the laundry, who lives
at 5s5 Cedar street, said he thought the
barn had been set af1re. The loss on the
barn Is $500 and on the horses $125.4
The barn back of No. 585 was occupied
y by several of Sheriff Wagener's horses.
1t was damaged to the extent of $3.50
Early yesterday morning barn barely
block away was burned with two
horses. The neighbors are somewhat ex-

DIAZ Is COMING.
The President of Mexico WITH Be
the Guest of Chicago.

\
the Guest of Chicago.
CHICAGO, May 14.-Word has sen re-
ceived here by the officers of the Chicago
Autumna1 lh;stival association that Pres
ident Porfirio Diaz, of Mexico, will be the
guest of the association during the fes-
tivai next October. He will be accom-
panied by several of the members of his
cabinet, and will travel in a special train
placed at his disposal by the association.
The news was received with great salts
faction by the officers of the association.
While they had dispatched an envoy to
the Mexican capital with the mission of
delivering special invitation to Presi-
dent Diaz, there was uncertainty as to
the outcome of sthe effort to, bring him
here.
The visit Of the president, will of course,
be an event Of great interest, as well as
significance. 1t is understood that one
consideration that Induced him to avail
himself of the invitation was the oppor-
tunity afforded 70 set at rest the rumor
which obtained rsorne publicity that he
did not feel at sliberty to come to this
country because Of unsettled conditions
in Mexico, andsfthe fear that political
complications might arise which would
imperll the present1regime there.

BUFFALO, N. Y, May 14.-Notwith-
standing the adjustment of the grain SHOW
cling trouble, the labor situation here, 80
far as the commercial interests of the
port are concerned, is threatening. The
tie-up of the freight and ore DOCKS which
was said to be the result of the scoopers'
strike, is still on. The ore handlers now
cut number 1900. The freight handlers,
who said they struck out OF sympathy
with the shovelers, now refuse to go back
to work until their wages are raised to
IS cents per hour for outside work The
house men also refuse to go to work until
they secure an increase in pay. With the
exception of the elevators, therefore,
nearly everything on the docks will be
tied UP for some time to come.
The coal handlers say they are being
underraid and that the contract bosses
failed to make fair accounting with
them. They demand cents a ton for
trimming and so cents a car for box cars,
instead of 40 cents. The ore men demand
II cents ton, the rate which they claim
prevails in Cleveland. Both freight and
coal men ask that the railroads and
steamship lines do away with the boss
contractors and deal directly with the
men.
Thus far no attempt has been made to
adjust the strike, owing to the fact that
the men have not yet submitted their
grievances in proper form Their de-
mands will be placed in writing at a
meeting to be held tomorrow.
