A SETTLEMENT LIKELY.
Cleveland's Street Railway Strike Likely
to Be Called Of.

Cleveland, June 21.-The effort to set
tie the strike of the street railway men
is likely to be successful and it is now
believed that a settlement may be
reached tomorrow. Through the eff
forts of the special committee of the
city council the officers of the company
and a committee of the strikers were
brought together to-day. The only
question at issue Is how many of the
old men shall be reinstated if the strike
is declared off. Yesterday the COM
pany received a proposition from the
men to the effect that all the men be
renstated save those who might be
convicted of destroying property. The
company said it could not discharge
the new men it had employed. AT the
conference to-day, which lasted al
most continuously from / o'clock in
the afternoon until 10 o'clock tonight,
these propositions were discussed.
Finally the company agreed to rein
state all but 100 of the old men, and,
with that offer under consideration, the
conference was adjourned until l
o'clock tomorrow afternoon. The
members of the council committee
think settlement will be reached.

Goddard Lost on a Foul.

Chicago, June 21.-Joe Goddard. the
Australian heavyweight, lost on a foul
to "klondyke," a local heavyweight, in
the fifth round of what was to have been
a six-round contest at the Adelpai theater
Tonight. After the first round the men
apparently forgot all about science and
went at it rough and tumble. In the
fourth round Goddard threw the colored
man and hit him while on the floor.

There should be some way Of solving

Why could not a joint stick COM

organized? This company TO buy and
sell unoccupied lands and to assist
purchasers to buy. The stock could be
bought on the assessment plan Of say
s. 90 per share and Sl.OO per month, or
bought outright for cash or land, the
lands purchased 10y the company to be
sold again on terms of easy payment.
such lands "a are not sold could be
rented out, the terms of such rental
contract could be so drawn that the
tenant would be bound TO improve the
land. One could hardly lose on the
stock in such company, for he would
have the real estate a. the last resort.
The rental Of such lands that are I'M

balance sheet for the year shows that
pension payments were 100000 less

S6,OO0,00O less than the payments for
the previous year, but pension agents
claim that this was on account of the

Some time since we mentioned the
fact that in certain West Virginia
town, strongly Republican, by the
way, no negro was allowed TO remain
even for a day. Recently few of them
have made the attempt to violate the
unwritten law Of the place, and an
open war is threatened. What Re-
publican campign document this
would make ifit had only happened
in a Southern town. All that we ask
Of the race is to refrain from being
fiendish yiOlators Of law, and then they
can walk our streets, engage in any of
the occupations of life and live under
their own roofs with none to modest or
make them afraid. The real friends Of
the negro live South though the eman-
oipatiOn proclamation was not signed
by Southern hand. No one, by the
way, ever signed it in the interest of
the negro, but in the interest Of the
combined existence Of these United
States.

Some one has said that the mere
meeting together of representatives Of
the leading nations of earth TO confer
as TO peaceful settlement of interna-
tional differences was of itself emphat-
ic testimony to the fact that the ten
dency of the age was towards peace
rather than towards war. This may
h. true, but isn't il nevertheless sad TO
know that i'm these closing days of the
18th century christian nations cannot
agree TO have peace rather than war
under all conditions? There are said
TO be 2S,O00,000 christians i'm our country
alone. How many in the other ma
tons represented in the conference We
90 not know, but of course their name
Is legion, and yet it is conceded that
these christian people will not agree
not to fight. England, Russia and
America could command universal
peace, and why not? There can be
but one answer. Imperialism rules
with iron hand. The desire for more
territory is burning aud consuming.
The Christ proclaimed "peace and
good VIII, sRe IN says larger do
mains and oTfrer suoi KS from whom l
can exact taxes and demand loyalty.
TheSkfhrist said: "Do unto others as
you would have them do unto YOU"
but England says, 1--WE will shoot civ
ilization into savages and make them
pay tribute to our Queen. The Christ
said, 600 preach the gospel to the ma
tons Of EARTH" but Uncle sam says,
Eve viii give them old Glory and so
make good citizens Of them"
That the Peace Conference should
adjourn without practical and benef-
cent results having been accomplished
simply amazes Us. Some one has had
the boldness recently to say that peace
costs more than war. None but an
army contractor or political Spectator
with a "pull' Oh the "powers that be"
could have made so reckless a state
ment. Would that the men who
c.amor for war could be made to do
all its bloody and beastly work.
How long think you the present war
would last if Hanna was made to make
one march in ranks or fight tone battle ?
Would Shafter have gone to the field
at all without his hammock? Would
Mr.. Mckinley be patriotic on Sl3 a

tax burden and the war burden. Where
is the man wise enough to show them
how they may unload? Reliefis need
ed rather than the glory born of victory.
