announcement has been issued in st.

nets are engaged In an endeavor to
induce Germany to abandon her de-
mand for the surrender of the In
stigators of the antl-foreigu outrages
as a preliminary to peace negotia-
tons. The Vienna correspondent
of the Daily Chronicle asserts that
Russla's reply to the German note
is very friendly, but that, although
it appears to consent TO Germany's
proposal, it practically disapprovCs
by asking whether it would not be
best to open peace negotiations first
and to make the punishment of the
instigators of the outrages the first
discussion. According to theBerlin
correspondent OF the Daily Express
Germany will make new proposal
namely, that the great powers form
an international court to try the

Russian Financier Says Chinese Rail-
road Contracts Will Come Here.
Adolf Rothstein, the Russian dnancier,
says Of the Chinese Eastern Railroad:
up to the present time we have expend-
ed some 100000 but before compile
ton an additional $1OO,O0O,0 900 will be
disbursed. The road will not be COM
pleted for, should say, quite fifteen
months, as we find we shall have to bore
tunnel some four and half miles long
on the Russian side of the Hardin. the
headquarters of the railroad. The bene-
fits which American manufacturers Will
derive in the shape of contracts will be
most important. The proposal for the
awarding of the immense contracts for
material, ETC., have to be first submitted
to the Russian Government, as it has
guaranteed the payment Of interest on
the bonds of the road. Mr.. White, the
minister Of finance, has assured me, how
ever, that he will place no obstacle IN
the way of contracts being sent to the
United States, which, in diplomatic Ian
guage, l take it to mean that he might
object to the filing of orders in other for
eign countries. 1t is hard at the present
stage to arrive at other than approximate
figures Of what the material and rolling
stock contracts for the Chinese Eastern
Railroad will amount to, but l consider
that they will reach an aggregate. OF

Officers by Worlds w. C. T. u.

Except for the boycott and 300 extra
policemen on duty, but little remains to
tell of the great strike on the st. Louis
Transit Company's system, inaugurated
May s. Cars are in operation on all the
lines without hindrance, and are well pat
ronized, except on those running north
and south. Many thousand persons, be-
cause of the boycott and through sympa-
thy for the strikers, patronize wagons
and buses manned by ex-street railway
employees. This is especially true in the
north and south sections of the city. The
other day the rest of the force of Sheriff
Pohlman's posse comitatus, about 600
men, was mustered out Of service for
good, the board of police commissioners
deciding they were no longer needed.

transactions in Iron Slow, Wooden
| Goods Market Unsatisfactory, and
Cotton in Similar State-Contest Over
Lake Freights Won by Rockefeller.

r. G.. Dun &Co's weekly review of
trade says: 'The long effort to hold nom
inal prices for iron at Pittsburg has ceas-
ed, and the associations now recognize an
open market in which Bessemer is offered
at $40 and billets at $26, with gray forge
at SIT. Scarcely a single transaction is
reported. The calculation that the wooden
goods business was large enough and
good enough to stand anything is not yet
justified. The market is growing unsat-
isfactory and it is no longer denied that
some of the best works have closed or
materially reduced force. The demand
for mems heavy goods falls much below
expectations. With partially different
causes the cotton goods market reaches
a similar position. The boot and shoe
industry makes slow progress. Leather
holders complain Of too little business to
make market. Hides at Chicago are
also a little weaker. Failures for the
week have been POT in the United States,
against 181 last year, and Fl in Canada,
against % last year."

LAND INVADED BY MINERS.

Claims Un1awfu11y Staked in kiowa

The Kiowa and Comanche reservation,
which is soon to be thrown open to white
settlement, is being invaded by miners.
Frank McMasters, a mining expert OF
Oklahoma City, who has just returned
from the Wichita mountains, says more
than 5000 miners have already taken up
their claims in the mountains, and defy
the police to make them leave. They
claim that the bill opening the Kiowa
and Comanche country provided that as
soon as the President signed the act the
Wichita mineral lands were to be opened
to settlement at the rate Of $40 an acre.
A big mining camp has been established
on Otter creek, near Mount Scott, and
1000 prospectors have already located
their claims there.
