He Sees a Fight Made by the People Against

LOUISVILLE, Aug. 14.-Augustus Van Wyck.

prominent Louisville man two days ago at
Saratoga. had this to say:
90 SEQ the fight in kentucky this year is that
Of the people against a corporation. 1t is
simply another Louisiana Lottery case that
the people down there had to fight for years
before they could throw tho yoke Off their
necks. 1t will BIO the same thing in Kentucky.

road is the Louisiana Lottery.
why. that situation in Kentucky sizes itself
to all outsiders 1t is the cearest case | ever
saw OF a corporation bent on putting men in
office that it can absolutely control and using
it's power to keep out OF Office those that will
not obey its command. This is perfectly clear
to me. and will be surprised IL the people do
not resent at the polls such an unwarranted
aud outrageous interference with their rights
as citizens"
In this interview Mr.. yanWyck simply took

Considerable alarm has been created in the
minds Of some Of tho parents OF boys on the
schoolshp st. Marys. now on a cruise abroad.
by the reports Of the vessels condition brought
back by young John Riis. the l7-year-old son
OF Jacob A. Riis. the writer. Young Ris ar
rived here on Saturday from Gibraltar where
he and two other boys deserted tho ship, on
which they were apprentices With w. T..
Clarke. young ltiis returned home. but he does
not know what became OF the third youth
According to Ris ana Clarke. the ST. Mary's
was in rather bad condition when they left
her. and the boys aboard had to undergo
many hardships Young Riis. when seen last
night at his home in Richmond Hill. l.. l.. said
the ship leaked continually.
The boys" he continued, were put to the
pumps twice day in order to keep the water
In the hold from rising past tho danger line.
The pumps were worked about tw enty minutes
| morning and night and the water each time
would be about three feet deep in the hold,
When the ship was in port. the pumps wero
worked only once day The vessel is over
fifty years old and is not properly caulk ed. In
tho slightest blow she rolls fearfully.
THE food on tho voyage across tho ocean
consisted only of salt meat hard tack. potatoes

Often tho boys would pass their plates for
more and it would be denied them. bad as 1t
was. Five or six Of them had bOis on their

to the inferior food we were eating. When we
reached the first port at tho Fayal Islands, and
later at Lisbon. we expected that the diet
would be changed. as we had always got pretty
good things to eat before in port. but we
we're disappointed. While the vessel was kept
cruising in tho Sound there was little
| to complain Of but the trouble all began when
she started for the other side"
Since Riiss return parents OF several OF the

nothing can DO done IN the way Of Investigate

TAMPA CIGARMIKERs YIN.
A Virtual Revolution in Making Clear Ia
vaua Cigars There.

TAMPA. Fla. Aug. 14.-Atter a combined
strike and lockout which lasted five weeks. and
during which twenty-five cigar factories have
been closed and 5000 cigarmakers idle. Il!
differences between the employees and EN-.
ployers were finally settled to-day. The man
ufacturers granted every demand made upon
them and tho changes rendered necessary by
these concessions will amount virtually to a
revolution in the methods Of producing clear
Havana cigars in the United States.
The cigarmakers demanded the abolition in
each factory 9th scales for weighing the flller
tobacco issued to them. This was the main
point at issue. Under the new rule which goes
Into effect when the factories open tomorrow
morning. no check will be kept upon the ma
terra issued to the men for making into cigars,
Another demand was that all factories should
adopt a uniform scale Of wages. Hitherto each
factory has had its own scale. and the cost of
production Of the same grade of cigars varied
considerably: This had its effect on wholesale
and retail prices.
The resumption OF work will call for 5000
more cigarmaksrs than are here at present.
that number having returned to Cuba since the
troubles began: Another rehu will be that
oigarmakers will command higher wages than
have ever prevailed before.

SHAMROCK's SPARS ARRITE.

Of wood
Ths metal pieces are painted in imitation Of
wood but there were some scratches in the
paint and the metal underneath looked like
aluminium. 1t is hardly to be expected. how
ever that Designer Fife would risk ordering 4
mast and boom Of this metal in spite OF tho
fact that he is credited with having sacrificed
everything to secure liGhtncss above and be-

are very light. as Is proved by the fact that
only three small ropes were necessary to hoist
the mast aboard the Furnessia at Glasgow.
one OF he officers and several OF the sailors
Of the steamship said they believed the spars
were OF steel, and everybody who saw them
yesterday was Of the same opinion.
Tho Furnessia brought also a dingy and n
lot Of running gear for the cup challenger. The
consignment will probably be taken to the

News of Kruger's Ultimatum Causes Little
Surprise In British Capital.
LONDON. Oct. 1.-The stolidity, if
not the placidity, Of the English charac-
fer never was better shown than it is in
London now, when England is face to
face with war. The audacity of the
Transvaai dispatch momentarily
stunned the public, and it was only
unde, the glare Of the music hall lights
and listening to the stirring bars of the
national anthem and other patriotic
airs, that the effect Of the momen,ary
rebuff was lost in demonstrations that
shook the rafters.
The first minister to speak publicly Of
the ultimatum was Lord James OF
Hereford, who, speaking at Aberdeen.
said: "The government has done every
thing in their power to preserve peace.
However, diplomacy is ended and the
hopes of peace are virtually destroyed
and that not by the action Of the queen 5
government. President Kruger has
sent an ultinatu,n. If we were to With.
draw our troops at his bidding we
should suffer the greatest humiliation,
and the government would deserve to
be hunted from Office as craven towards.
Nothing remains but to commend our
course to the god Of battle and arms
and to implore his blessing upon the en-
