SETTLES SHovELERS' STRIKE.
Eut Other Troubles Still Leave Buffalo
Situation SariOuA

Situation Serious.
BUFFALO, N. Y, May 1.-THE ele-
vators, crippled by the sympathetic
strike of the monthly men, did little
work yesterday, but three being op-
Grated. Contractor Connors, however,
says men to run the elevators can be
secured. Mr.. Connors has agreed that
the officers of the new Grain Shovel
ers' union would be permitted to re-
tain their offices and that he would
give work only to such men as might
be sent to him by Mr.. Donovan, the
new inspector appointed by Bishop
Quigley. Bishop Quigley said that this
agreement removed the last obstacle in
the way of satisfactory settlement,
and that so soon as the other strikes
were settled the grain shovelers would
return to work.
The strike of freight handlers, coal
beavers and ore men will be difficult to
adjust, as every freight dock has its own
system and rate of wages. The agree
ment of the men to stand together rem
ders it impossible for anyone to effect a
settlement unless all come to terms.
The grievances Of the ore and freight
handlers and coal beavers are similar to
those of the grain shovelers. They
complain of the saloon boss system and
low wages.

Addresses u Meeting of fAnti-Imperis:lists
at Boston.

Addresses 4 Meeting of Anti-1mperi.lists
at Boston.
Boston, May ia conference OF
members of the Anti Imperi alist league
was held at Young's hotel yesterday.
The event of the meeting was a strong
address delivered by Ex-Governor Bout
well, president of the league, in which
he upheld the position of Auginaldo and
answered Secretary Long.
Before reaning his paper he said that
the first part of what he was about to
say had been submitted to the executive
committee of the league and it had
been approved.
Ex-Governor Boutwell, began by de.
nying the charge that the Anti-Imperi-
alistic League organization was engaged
in improper dealings with the army in
the Philippines, but stated that it was
the purpose of the league "to bring the
army out of the Philippines by quiet in
fiuence of the American people at
home, acting through the channels of
intercourse or communication; but,
failing in that effort, as fail we may,
then we propose to SO act as to summon
the army from the Philippines by the
authority of the votes of the American
people and without thought of the con-
sequences to men or to administrations.
AS between Aguinaldo and the presi.
dent, Aguinaldo is in the right and
the president is in the wrong. Aguin-
aldo can only bring the war to an end
by the surrendering of all rights to self
government in himself and in his peo-
pie and by the recognition of right in
the president to govern and tax 8,000.-
900 Filipinos in whatever manner shall
to him seem expedient."
A set of six resolutions was then Of
fered demanding justice to the Fill
pinos, .'whom we made our allies in
the war with Spain," and denounce the
war against them as an act OF treach-
ery. The fifth resolution states that
.'the policy Of our criminal aggression
against that brave, betrayed and un-
fortunate people is already evident in
usurpation of the illegal powers by the
president in the unjustifable censorship
of the press, and in the threat of perse-
cution for treason Of an eminent and
patriotic citizen who was acting strictly
within his legal rights.
The last resolution is as follows: "Re-
solved, That we protest against this at
tempt to degrade the great republic into
great empire, to destroy its moral
leadership of the world and to make it
succumb to ideas and principles which
it was born to oppose, and we solemnly
appeal to the conscience of the Amer.
ican people TO frustrate it forever by re-
turning with tenfold loyalty to 'the
spirit Of '76'''
