Court, and representatives in Con-
gress did the same thing. While
perhaps the feelings OF the judges
we're hurt and their sensibilities
aroused and touched, the court did
not invoke libel proceedings. Sena-
tor Edmunds and Mr.. Choate, now
our Minister to England, who ap.
peared in the income tax cases, and
other celebrated counsel in the case
did not throw up their hands in
holy horror and feel that the honor
and virtue OF the court, or their own
honor, was ct stake because the
press denounced the decision as po-
litical. 1t is almost impossible to
take up any great dsily paper>with-
out seeing some criticism on the
courts. Everyone in public position
must expect criticism. The man
who escapes it is an angel on earth
and only needs the fat of God to
make him an angel in Heaven. This
jury, / dare say, will be criticized
for rendering this report. II you
had not rendered such report you
would also have been criticized.
One element says you will be damn
ed il you do; another element says
you will be damned il you don't.
You cannot escape criticism. The
man who attempts to get into the
current OF public favor sooner or
later will be eugulfed because pub
lie sentiment is fickle-nothipg is
more 80. One day it places a man
on the highest pinnacle of popular
favor; the next dav it lays him in
the gutter Of contempt, There is
only one thing to do and that is
Duty.
Your report, on the whole, is a
most admirable one. For your I'M
firing labors, for the dignity with
which you have demeaned your
selves while in the courtroom and
its annex, and for the service you
have rendered to this community,
the Court desires to tender you its
heartfelt thanks. You are now dis
charged, gentlemen, for the term.

MAY STRIKE AGAIN.
Business Agent Says Chicago Union
lists May BE Called Out.

CHICAGO, Aug. 22.-Unless the plans OF
the leaders miscarry every union man con-
nected with the Building Trades Council
will be called out on strike before Labor
day. The plumbers have already been or
dered out, and it is the intention that all
other unions whose men are working shall
follow suit. Owing TO increased activity In
the building trades within the last few days
many union men have been put to work, In
some places with the consent of the bust
ness agents, and 1T is the purpose of the
unions to stop the work wherever the
bosses believe they had won a victory and
show them that the labor organizations are
still in the fight. The business agent of one
of the largest unions in the building trades
said: 1.-The contractors have come to be-
lieve that it is comparatively easy sailing
for them now. and accordingly have been
undertaking some large jobs with the idea
there would be no further trouble from the
unions. They will find to their disgust that
many of the men whom they suppose to
be %nonunion men have become members of
the unions, and they will simply be unable
to do any work. 1t is the only thing that
is left the unions unless they propose TO
give up their fight. The idea of helping the
contractors along in their jobs has been a
mistake which is generally recognized now,
and they will find there is a lot of fight left
among the men yet"

BY THE EARTH
DISAPPEARANCE OF A CRUSHING
MILL AND OTHER PLANTS.
Disastrous Cave-In Above a Kansas
Mine-BuiIdfngs and
cry Literally Swallowed

GALENA, Kan.. Aug. 22.-The large
crushing mill of Representative Bowersock
and other parties at Lawrence was swal-
lowed as If by magic last night by an i'm
mense cave-in on the south-side ground.
1t was among the largest mills in this dis
trict. The cavern occurred without a mo-
ment's warning, forming a perfect circle.
The ground has continued breaking loose
more or less since that time. The largest
cavein-in in the history of this mining dis
trict occurred a short time before / o'clock
this afternoon on the Ohio ground, taking
in part of the Nightingale plant, including
derrick, tramway and tanks. 1t had been
considered dangerous since Saturday, the
force of men coming out at that time.
However, they have been working in and
on the ground more or less since. This
forenoon they worked in the ground, and
were moving machinery from the top.
When the collapse occurred all were at
their dinner. This mine has been in opera
ton for twelve years, and was one of the
greatest producers in the district.

MAY DEMAND REDRESS
SIXTEEN NEGROES COMPLAIN TO
THE CONsUL.
Say They Are Subjects of Her Maj
esty and Were Beaten by New
York MODS and Policemen.

NEW YORK, Aug. 22.-The British con-
sui in this city states to-day that he has
received sixteen complaints from colored
men claiming to be British subjects, who
state they were injured in the recent race
rioting in New York. These men claim to
be natives of British possessions in the
West Indies.
The Herald prints the following: Inter
national complications may follow the negro
riots. Alfred Atkins. a British subject, who
was one of the victims of the mob and
later of police cutrages, has appealed to
the British consul for redress. Atkins is
a parlor-car porter, and while he was on
his way to his home from the Grand Cen
trail Station, ignorant Of the race war
then going on, he was beaten and almost
killed by whites. He was rescued by po-
licemen, but barely escaped even rougher
treatment at the hands of the police.
Atkins is about thirty years of age and a
native of Kingston. Jamaica. He is en-
ployed by the New York, New Haven &
Hartford road. He described his expert
ence yesterday. Il arrived at the Grand
Central Station about s O'Clock Wednesday
evening, Aug. Is. from the White noun
tains,' he said. L had not heard of the
riots then going on, and 1 started for my
home. / got to Forty-first street, when
a mob of white men seized me, crying out:
There's another of the black devils!"
They knocked me down. L got up and ran
north to Forty-third street, the mob follow
ing me all the way. They caught me
and dragged me back to Forty-frst street.
Somebody told a policeman that / was in
nocent, and he took me away from them
and into a drug store. He called an ambu-
lance and my wounds We're dressed. My
face was cut in half a dozen places, and my
right eye was swollen shut. They started
to take me to the police station, but on
the way the ambulance was stopped for
half an hour near Ninth avenue. A mob
surrounded il and men spat on me, the
policemen offering no objection. l was kept
at the police station until 2 o'clock i'm the
morning, when they said there was no
charge against me and told me to go, with
half a dozen other negroes. There was a
mob still outside the station and 1 begged
TO be allowed to remain. They let me stay
until 4 o'clock, when Captain Cooney came
and ordered me and several others out. 1
was the last to leave the station, and he
said to me: Il hope the police will catch
you before you get home and beat you to
DEATH" 1t was raining then and the mob
had scattered. i was not molested on the
way home Atkins has been under treat
ment since then at the New York Hospital.
He called on the British consul, who said
he would investigate his case.
&C. Clive-Bayley, who is British acting
consul general during the absence in Eu-
rope of Percy Sanderson, said that Atkins
had called on him, said he was a British
subject and had been dubbed without
cause during the riots. He was told to
nave his complaint put in legal form. Mr..
Clive-Beyley told Atkins to come back after
he had done this and he would consider his
