TO DISCUSS TRUSTS.
Ralph M. Easley Explains the Work
of the Proposed Chicago Meeting.


of the Proposed Chicago Meeting.
New York. Aug. 21.-Ralph NJ. Eas-
ley. of Chicago, secretary Of the civic
federation, is in New York on business
connected with the proposed conference
on trusts and combinations, to be held
in Chicago from September IS to 16.
Mr.. Easley is enthusiastic about the
prospects of the conference.
I would like to correct an impress
sion that apparently prevails in some
quarters that the conference is to be
distinctly an antitrust meeting" he
said THE conference is really called
for the purpose OF discussing educa-
tionally trusts and combinations and
their uses and abuses. 1t will be a
representative, nOn-pOlitical meeting of
many of the ablest men in the country
The delegation from Nebraska, head
ed by W. J. Bryan, will be an interest
ing one, as Mr.. Bryan has telegraphed
that he will positively be present.
In speaking of the New York delega-
ton, Mr.. Easley said that although it
appeared to be largely composed of
men whose sympathies were supposed
TO be with the trusts, yet it would
meet many western delegations COM
posed entirely of antitrust men.

SITUATION IS SERIOUS.
Government Accused of Provoking
Paris Riot

Paris, Aug. 21.-The papers of this
city on commenting on the riots which
took place here yesterday are unani-
nous in prOnOuncing the situation to
be of the most serious character. The
conservative and nationalist organs ac-
cUSe the government of provoking yes
terday's bloodshed by unjustihable ar
rests.
The GauIois reproaches the cabinet
for not having taken measures to pre-
vent the excuses.
The radical, reVisiOniStS and repubH-
can papers insist on the necessity of
more hrmness on the part of the minis
try and declare the ministers must de-
fend the republic against secret ma
chinatiOns and attempts at an upriS-
ing.
The radical press protests against the
disorders and hopes the police Will pre-
vent a recurrence of them.
The Figaro expresses the belief that
the troubles are over and says the gov
eminent has decided to act with the
utmost VigOr against NJ Guerin, the
president of the anti-semite league who
with some companions has been barri-
caded in the headquarters of the league
since August r. It is also said the
premier, NJ Waldeck Rousseau thinks
there will be no further disturbances in
the streets of Paris The Rappel blames
Sebastian Faure, the anarchist orator,
for provoking troubles at a time when
it is the duty of everybody to urge
The Petit Bleu and other papers urge
the government in view of the serious
ness of the situation to reaSSure the
provinces by fastening the proceedings
in the prosecution of the cases of those
who have been charged with conspir-
ing against the republic.
The Rue de ChabrOl, in which is To-
Gated the building in which NJ. Guerin
and his companions are entrenched and
its neighbour god today presents an ev
cry day appearance. The investment of
the besieged anti-semites is being
closely maintained and the windows of
the house have been closed. A doctor
who visited a sick inmate of the head
quarters reports that the morale of the
besieged party is excellent, but that
they are worn out by the prolonged
loss of sleep.

FUNSTON ORIGINAL.
New Story About the Popular Kansas
Soldier.

The Ohio State Journal is responsible
for this story about General Fred Fun
ston:
1t was before the battle of Caloocan.
He had had no sleep for two days and
was in bad shape He therefore rolled
himself up in some leaves and went to
sleep. Meantime the division received
orders to advance. but Funston could
not be found. Many scouts had been
killed, and it was feared that the col
onel's curiosity-for he was colonel
then-had led him into trouble. Rres-
emily, however, a glimpse was caught
of his red hair in the tangle, and later
they found him shrOuded in leaves. As
this is the way bodies are prepared for
burial in that part of the world, they
got more and more apprehensive with
each step, until. at length, some on
shouted: Colonel are you dead or
alive?" Neither grunted the colonel,
as he rolled over for another nap; I'm
sleeping.

MORE STUMBLING BLOCKS.
Appraisement For North Topeka
Sewer May Be Set Aside.

A plan has been matured among the
councilmen to rescind all steps that
have been taken in the proposed North
Topeka sewer matter since the ap-
praisers We're appointed and have a
new appraisement. 1t is probable that
this would prevent the construction of
the sewer this year.
The reason given for the proposed ac-
ton is that the appraisement is ridic-
ulOusly unequal. There have been some
omissions and these have contributed
to make the affairs more complicated.
City Attorney Bird and Mayor Drew
think that the council can do nothing
else than go ahead now that the pro-
iect is SO far along.

AT THE STATION HOUSE.

The police doing duty in West Scran-
ton have had very little to do the past
month, but with the approach of the
glorious fourth their troubles begin.
In fact, they began Saturday night,
when every cell in the station house
was occupied.
In cell No. n woman was locked
up, who, in seeking her husband in the
company of another woman, got mixed
up with her rival and a real hair-pull-
ing, nd-to-hand fight followed. She
was arrested and fined $500 yesterday
morning.
In cell No. ., a man who formerly
held the office of burgess in nearby
town, peered through the bars, his face
almost unrecognizable from blood
which flowed from cut on his fore
head. He had trouble with colored
man on Robinson street. He paid $500
for his trouble.
Cells and 4 were occupied by COR
dinary drunks." but in No. s a Polan-
der tried to shake the bars from the
CELL and kept up a continuous per-
formanCe for several hours. He was
fined $500 for doing his turn.
The woman refused to state her
case "till she got to the court house"
the squire demanded a hearing forth
with. according to law" and the Po-
lander he gave limitations of Hans
Nix the telephone inspector. The
scene was very realistic and reminded
one of visit to an insane asylum.
