WASHINGTON, June .S.-The Chicago
has sailed from Tamatatee, Madagascar,
for Delagoa. The ship was on her way
around the Cape of Good Hope to Bra
I'll, but owing to the unsettled state of
affairs in the Transvaal, she will be re-
tanned in that vicinity as long as may
be necessary to afford protection to the
American interests in that quarter.
These interests are considerable, both
in the number of Americans resident in
the Transvaal engaged in mining oper-
atoms, and in the volume of American
capital employed in mining industry.

MILLS TO CLOSE
Failure to Agree on a Scale Will
Cause Tin Plate Factories
to Stop.
Amalgamated Workers Commit
tee Not Empowered to Accept
Terms offered,
And Will Have to Receive New
Instructions 80. Chicago
Packers.

PITTsBURG, June 27.-All the tin plate
works in the country will be closed at
midnight on Friday as the result Of the
failure to settle the wage scale ct the
conference in Chicago. Fully 50, 900
persons will be effected by the shut
down.
The conference, which opened in Chi
cage Tuesday morning, closed Saturday
evening at 6 o'clock, without arriving
at an agreement. The workers wage
committee, acting under instructions
received from the annual convention
held i'll Detroit last week, made a de-
mand for an advance of 20 per cent. The
present wage scale expires on June 30,
and members of the Amalgamated AS.
ISOLATION are not permitted to work
after that date unless the new scale is
signed.
About $4,000 skilled workers are
members Of the association, and as
many more are dependent upon them
and will be idle while the skilled men
are unemployed. Nearly rs per cent Of
the tin plate workers of the country are
employed in Western Pennsylvania
mills. The scale for the tin house men
or unskilled labor was arranged several
weeks ago, and provides for a big ad-
vance to some of the workers, and aver
ages nearly 20 per cent. All the tin
plate mills in the country are union
mills, with but four exceptions. Some
of them may continue in operation, but
it is not likely that they will. Secre-
tary Williams Of the Amalgamated as
ISOLATION stated that all negotiations
are off for the present. and Mr.. Will
Jams said that the manufacturers Of
fered them IN advance, but it was not
as much as they wanted, and as the
committee had no authority to do any,
thing except what the convention de-
cided on in Detroit, just a month ago,
the conference was brought to an end.
It would be impossible, he said to refer
the matter back to the subordinate
lodges this week, much less arrange for
another conference.

VIOLENCE CONTINUES.

Non-Unlon Employees Driven Fro Their
Car At Cleveland.
CLEVELAND, June 28.-There was q
serious outbreak of violence on a cal
manned by non-union men in South

crowd of 90 or more men boarded the
car. They had previously placed q
plank across the track. When the
motorman alighted to remove the oh.
struction the crowd pelted him with
eggs and stones and finally chased him
half q mile. He was seriously injured
and the mob desisted only when he
begged for mercy. The conductor wa.
treated similarly. Then the crowd
took possession of the car and broke all
the windows.

Cochrane and marched to the tourna-
ment grou nds six blocks away. Colo
mel Roosevelt rode as a commander,

sion of the parade Hon. Frank Springer,

Big Strike of Packing House Employees
Considered More Than Likely.
CHICAGO, June 27.-About 300 men
actually engaged in the killing Of hogs
Joined the ranks of strikers at the stock
yards during the day, in demanding an
increase in wages of 25 cents a day. No
trouble is a~pprehended by the police.
1t is asserted that unless packers make
concessions to their employees, a strike
which will effectually tie up the stock
yards industries will take place July l.
The trouble so far has been confined to
the unskilled laborers. That the situa.
ton is regarded as rather serions by the
packers, was indicated by the fact that
several of the largest packing houses
refused to buy hogs.

BRITAIN is READY.

Nr. Chamberlain Discusses Transvaal AT.
fairs in Unmistakeable Terms.
BIRMINGHAM, Eng, June 2S.-Joseph
Chamberlain, secretary of state for the
colonies, addressing the Unionists of
this city during the evening, reviewed
carefully the Transvaal question. In
the course of his speech he said that
owing to the enormous military prep
arations of the government of the South
African Republic, Great Britain had
been compelled to increase the British
garrisons in Cape Colony and Natal,
entailing an additional expenditure of
e5OO, 900 annually.
IF the reforms which Lord Ripon
proposed in 1894 had been accepted"
said the minister, "there would have
been no raid and no crisis at the present
time. But the raid tied the hands of
the government and prevented the ap-
plication of pressure"
Mr.. Chamberlain said the govern
ment had tried to establish friendly re-
1ations with President Kruger, but all
advances had been
Received With Contempt.
After denouncing in the strongest
terms the attitude and actions of the
Beers, Mr.. Chamberlain, with great de-
liberation and emphasis, added:
"The T~ransvaal's enormous secret
service fund has procured it friends and
advocates in every country. The way
the British subject is treated is not only
a menace to them all, but interferes
with u prestige among the natives,
who now regard the Beers and not the
British as the paramount power. Be-
fore violating the London convention
the Transvaal is fagrantly violating
that equality the convention was de-
signed to accomplish. Its misgovern-
ment is a fostering sore, poisoning the
whole atmosphere of South Africa.
The Dutch in Cape Colony and Natal
would be in the happiest condition, but
30 long as the disease of
Hatred and Suspicion
prevails in the Transvaal it is impossi-
BILE to stop the c%ontagion.
-Four times since independence was
granted we have been on the verge of
war with the Transvaal. It is erroneous
to say the British government wants
war, but it is equally to say
that the government will draw back
now that it has put its hands to the
pillow.
1--WE hope the efforts that are now
being made will lead to an amicable
arrangement, for Great Britain only
desires 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-respect. / trust that time may
never come in this instance, but if it
does Britons will insist upon the means
to find a result essential to the peace of
South Africa"
