The latest thing In American uniforms is

company of the United States. and is armed
with Lee rifles. The uniform consists Of
white singlets, blue lavalavas with red fac
ings, red sashes, red turbans and the usual
cartridge box accouterments.
The lavalava Is short skirt made of
cotton cloth; the effect is something like a
highland kilt The snglet is a sort of dou-
biet or waistcoat.
Almost the first service the Tutuila Ma
tional Guard was called on to perform was
to arrest chief who had destroyed the
house and property OF another Samoan be-
cause the latter had cooked and eaten a
fish, which according TO Samoan customs
was reserved exclusively for the chiefs.

Sheriff Harvey telegraphed from Hazleton

Der of armed deputies be sent to the Halle

The tragedy at Shenandoah has made a

Groups Of Idle miners are gathered every

conservative of the strikers deplore the ac-
ton Of the Shenandoah mine inviting an at
tack from the sheriff. They say that IL the
men had pursued theesame course that the
miners of this region are doing In keeping
away from the mines there would have
been occasion for bloodshed. Other
miners think the calling out Of the militia
will strengthen the lines of the strikers In
the Lehigh and SchuylkiH regions.
View of the Operators.
The operators look upon the affair as the
beginning of the end. They say the miners
in the Schuylkill and Lehigh districts who
want To go to work, but who have been pre-
vented by intimidation, will now flock to
the mines, and there will be no difficulty in
keeping the colleries In operation.
Ex-Sherim James Martin, who was at the
head OF the deputies at Lattimer three
years ago. when twenty-one miners Were
killed, and over fifty wounded, says in ar

In Duluth last night, the arsaory building

all, coming down to the bedrock a prOtec-

of Imperialism. free silver and other 'lsms"

defense Of the tariff policy carried out by
the republican party and devoted a large
part Of his speech to that phase of the
question. He referred briefly to the Chi
nese question. only calling attention to the
fact that the republican national convention
adopted resolution expressing the hope
that the American ministers and residents
of China would soon be rescued. while the
democrats ignored the subject entirely,
probably for fear that it would not be con-
sstent with the issue of miiitarism they
have raised. The senator expressed him
self as personally in favor of holding the
Philippines permanently, but little by little,
as they developed. giving them the rights
of self-government
