END THE WAR QUICKLY.
Would Hurt the Republican
Party's Chances.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-Senator Bur
rows of Michigan, III an interview with
areporter, said in part;
"Unless the war in the Philippines
speedily ends, it will become an inn
portant political factor, and its continu.
ance will make the outlook for Repub.
hcan success uncertain, to say the least.
If l could have had my way, we would
have simply taken coaling station or a
base of supplies in the island of Luzon,
we would not have paid penny to
Spain, and we would have our foothold
in the east without the sacrifice of life
and money"
He said he believed in securing a
share in the markets of the Orient for
our people and further said in part:
cat the same time, we must not over
look the fact that we may run counter
at any moment to England, France or
Germany, and l believe that England,
now apparently so friendly. will strike
at us the moment we cross her thres-
hold.
"If our participation in the eastern
trade is to be purchased at the cost of
an indefinite war in the Philippines,
we will pay very large price for what
we receive.
"The president is acting wisely, in
my opinion, in endeavoring to restore
peace and order in the Philippines by
sending an increased army to assist
General Otis.
1--WE must remember, however, that
although we have now been fighting
some time, we have conquered terri
tory only about 90 miles to the north of
Manila and 10 miles to the south, a
mere bagatelle compared with the i'm
mense area of the archipelago. II the
additional troops sent to General Otis
cannot restore peace, congress will have
to deal with the problem and ought to
have, by Dec. 1, some definite informa
ton upon which to act.
"You would not now abandon the
philippines? ?" suggested the reporter.
al do not see how we can get away
now," said the senator. 1--WE cannot
surrender our ships to Aguinaldo ana
say to him that he can murder our sol
diers. Now that we have commenced,
the only thing we can do is to end the
conflict as soon as possible, After that
is done, the question of the disposition
of the islands or their permanent reten.
tion rests with the people and with con.
gress."

CAR MAGNATES FIRM.
Determined Not to Give Up to
the Strikers.
DIRECTORS APPROVED THE POLICY
President Everett Said the Company Had
Nearly All the New Men wanted-Strike
Leaders Claimed Satisfaction at Condl-
tion of the Boycott.

CLEVELAND, Aug. Whether the
boycott upon the Big Consolidated
Street Railway company is having any
effect or not, the company shows no
indication of a desire to change its
policy with respect to the strike. A
special meeting of the directors of the
company was held. At its conclusion
President Henry A. Everett was asked
If the strike had been discussed. "In-
cidentally it was," was the reply.
els it the intention of the company
to move for settlement of the striker"
was asked.
"No," said President Everett. 1--WE
are going ahead as we have been doing
We are hiring new men all the time
and we now have nearly all we want
Some of the new men are being dis
charged when found to be not the men
we want and others put in their places.
We are satitied with the situation. And
might say in reference to the state
meDt that there is q division in the
board Of directors that the board has
been unit from the beginning and it
is now unanimous in favor of the policy
being pursued"
b On the other hand, the leaders of the
strikers profess to be very much encour-
aged by the working of the boycott and
they say they must surely win because,
they declare, the public is with them.
The president of the union has been
busy all day listening to the complaints
of merchants and others, who claim
they have been boycotted without war
rant, and when he discovers that the
person who complains is innocent of the
charge of having ridden on a Big Con-
solidated car he gives notice to union
men accordingly.
Secretary Bishop of the state board
of arbitration arrived in the city to
look over the situation. He said he
was willing to undertake an investiga-
tion of the strike if one was desired.
He had a conference with president
Everett, but refused to say what trans
pired. 1t was intimated that he may
visit the strike leaders today.

Suffering for the Former
Pupils Sake.

Thirty-two square inches Of cuticle
were the other day taken by physicians
of Waterloo, Ia, from the arms of II
volunteers, one of whom was a woman,
and successfully transplanted to the
body of young man, VIII Barrett, in
order to save his life.
Barrett was severely burned in fire
several weeks ago and his wounds
would not heal. The woman who vol
unteered to make the sacrifice for him
was Miss Lydia Hinman, principal Of
the high school, and the unfortunate
young man was one of her favorits
pupils. The other volunteers were his
former schoolmates.

This notice was sent to Mr..
Porter Price on the 22nd day Of
August, and after notifying him,
and the fabricator, that calls him
self Presiding Elder, and they had
sent people, ministers, and men,
bers of their church to my wife to
try and have her withdraw 1t, and
let it go, as 1t would be so bad for
poor Porter Price. And il would
have such a harmful effect on our
dear little church, that our poor
little Porter, superintendent OF our
Sunday School would loose
what little respect people ever had
for him, and then what would we
do for Prosecuting Attorney.
Oh dear, too bad too bad. will say
right here that John James pulled
the string, and Tom Collins had
poor little Porter at the tips of his
fingers, while Porter came loaded
down with law books, Tom had
the little church Manual, good com

about as bad as Prosecutor Petit

highest standing both in church
and community as good and fair
citizens as we have In the county.
My wife had some twelve or fifteen
witnesses, all members of the
church. Porter had deposition
taken, from Miss Ida Reasoner,
which the chairman threw out. He
had one other witness, Mrs. Waller
on the stand and her testimony was
thrown out. These committeeman
brought in a verdict of "guilty" but
