AMERICAN REPUBLICS.
Executive Committee of the Bureau In
SehSiOn.

Executive Committee of the Bureau In
Session.
The executive committee of the bureau of
American republics was in session today in
execution of the direction of the ministers
of the American republics to complete the
details for the assembling Of the second
lies in the City of Mexico. The committee
decided that the conference should assem-
BILE next year some time between the months
of April and July, when the climatic condi-
tlons of Mexico are at their best. The
Mexican government will be requested to
fix the exact date within the limitations
laid down, and also to send invitations to
the other American republics to partici-
pate. No changes have yet been suggested
in the program for the congress as tenta-
lively framed by the executive committee.
The indications are that no objection will
be made by any of the nations to the arti-
cles proposed by the committee as proper
for the consideration OF the congress, and
the only change that may be expected is in
the direction of additions to the tentative
program.
Every nation represented at the congress
will have one vote. The smallest-little
Uruguay-will be as potent in the confer
ence as the United States. Each nation
may, however, delegate as many repre-
sentatives as it sees fit. In the first con-
gress the United States had ten delegates,
twice as many as Mexico, while many of
the South American republics had but one
representative. In the approaching con-
gress an effort will be made to keep our
numerical strength down to the average of
delegation to number more than five per-
sons.

WILL RESORT TO ARBITRATION.


Abolish sympathetic strikes.
CHICAGO, June 15.-Sympathetic strikes
are to be a thing of the past if plan of
arbitration can be agreed on by the build
ing trades unions and the associations aft1li-
ated with the Building Contractors Coun-
cil A declaration 70 this effect will come
today from the delegates who participated
in the joint conference with the contractors
on Tuesday and Wednesday and who were
in secret caucus all of yesterday. debating
plan of settlement of the labor trouble.
1t was agreed practically by the delegates
that the demand Of the contractors for
abolition of the sympathetic strike was one
which could be granted without detriment
appointed to prepare a resolution which
would give formal expression to this senti-
ment A subcommittee was formed to draft
a communication to the Building Con-
tractors Council on the same subject.
The subcommittee will send to the Build
ing Contractors Council today a general
statement of the position of the delegates
on the sympathetic strike question. 1t will
declare, as near as can be learned, that the
sympathetic strike should be abolished. At
affirm the determination of union labor to
preserve the Building Trades Council. The
arbitration plan which has been drawn up
provides for the establishment of a perma-
nent arbitration board, and also a board of
appeals, which shall act speedily and ad-
just every difference promptly as it arises.
Pending the finding of the board, work
strikes and lockouts will be eliminated and
in no case will building be DELAYED

HE WOULD NOT ACCEPT
ADMIRAL. DEWEY NOT A CANDIDATE
For VICE PRESIDENCY.
Frank Statement From the Hero OF
Manila Has Not Changed
His Attitude.

Admira, Dewey, who returned from his
western trip on Wednesday, will remain
quietly at his country home, Beauvoir,
Just outside of Washington. until the lat
ter part OF IS month, when he will go to
Newport to attend the session of the gem
eral board Of the navy, of which he is
president. The admiral was seen today by
an Associated Press representative and
asked whether or not he would define his
position relative to the vic" presidential
nomination. He replied that, inasmuch as
he had not been offered the nomination it
would perhaps be presumptuous in him to
say that he would or would not accept it.
But 1t was suggested. many demo-
Gratis throughout the country are discuss
ing the desirability of placing you on the
ticket with Mr.. Bryan
Il have never contemplated being a cam
didate for Vice President replied the adj
miral, with his usual frankneSS. Il am
not a candidate for nomination for that
office and would not accept the nomna-
ton If Offered. My position is unchanged;
l stand where L have stood for the
past three months.
Sessey VIII Not Accept.
In an iilerview printed in the New York
Herald today Admiral Dewey is thus
quoted:
II have no hesitation in saying that my
position : just this: Some time ago the
leaders, or those whom we have always
regarded as the leaders. asked me If 1
would allow my name to be used in connec-
ton with the presidency. After thinking
this pr, position over several weeks i said
Yes and accordingly announced that If
the peopie wanted me to serve in that
capacity would gladly do so. But thank
God they do not appear to want me. In
these days the people do not select the
President. The choiSe is now made by
few political leaders who put their heads
together and fix up their slate before the
convention assemblies"
1t will thus be seen that the admiral had
no second string to his bow when he made
the announcement that he would be can
didate for the presidency If the people OF
the country wished him to be.
The above statement was submitted to
and approved by Admiral Dewey.

CALIFORNIA; BOOM SCOTT.
One of the Delegates Discusses His
Availability.

NORTH PLATTE, Neb., June 1b.-The
California delegation to the republican ma
tional convention passed through here last
evening, travelling in two special sleepers.
The delegates are united in their support of
Irving NJ. Scott. "the man who built the
Oregon" for Vice President. George c.
Pardee one of the delegates-at-large, said:
Mr. Scott's greatest availability is that he
is from California the greatest state OF
the west. The Pacific coast should be rep
resented on the national ticket because OF
the large figure the Philippine question will
cut in the coming campaign. We are next
to Hawaii and the Philippines. and are
more directly interested in them than per-
haps any other section of the country.
The Nevada delegation Is also on the
train. One of its members stated that
Nevada would stand shoulder to shoulder
with California in support of Mr Scott.

Strategic Position Occupied by the
British.
SON OF GEN. CR0NJE In COMMAND
Beers Attack Reconstruction Train
North of Rhenoster River.
BRITISH CASUALTIES TWELVE

LONDON. June 15.-The war office issues
the following dispatch from Lord Roberts
PRETORIA, Residency, June A. 10:4(
pm.-Klerksdorp surrendered on June . to
an armed party sent on by Hunter.
kitchener reports that the Beers at
tackled a reconstruction train early this
morning few miles north of RhenosteI
river. He sent out mounted troops and
drove off the enemy before they could dc
damage. One man was killed and eleven
wounded, including two officers.
"a messenger from Klerksdorp reports
that Cronje. who commanded there, deter
mined to surrender as soon as he knew fol-
certain that Pretoria was in our possession
His example has been copied by many in
the neighborhood.
1.-The court house is now said to be full
of arms"
Strategic Position Gained.
By the peaceful occupation of l<lerlssdorp,
announced by Lord Roberts, the British
have gained strategic position of some
Importance, as the town is not only the
terminus of another railroad to Johannes
burg, but it is within easy reach of the
dVierfontein railroad.
The Cronje who surrendered the place is
a son of the famous General Cronje. now a
prisoner at ST. Helena. The son was prom
inent during the siege of Mafeking.
Apart from the fact that Lord Roberts
dispatch comes direct from Pretoria, show
ing the telegraph line is reopened, the
only other point of interest is the fact
that the Beers whom Gen. Methuen was
reported to have so utterly routed have
sufficiently recupcrated to attack a recon-
struction train.
A dispatch from Kimberley reports the
capture of the well-known pugilist, Jim"
Holloway. who was an adjutant in the
Beer army and who blew up the bridge at
Fourteen Streams. Holloway was among
party of federals captured in the west
ern part of the Transvaal.
The Afrikander bond congress opened at
Paarl today, with seventy delegates, in
cluding seven assemblymen, present.
Crisis in Cape Colony Affairs.
1t is feared at Cape Town that the par
liamentary deadlock will lead to a tenn
porary suspension of the constitution, and
there is much anxiety in regard to the pos
sible outcome of such a grave step.
Sir John Gordon Sprigg Is experiencing
much difficulty in forming a cabinet. Mr..
Schrener pcrsisting in his refusal to sup
port ministry dominated by Cecil Rhodes,
owing to personal antipathies. A coalition
seems impracticable. Messrs. Rose-InneS
and Solomon are not inclined to accept
subordinate position in a government
composed of nominees Of the South African
League If Mr. Schreiner is dissatisfied
with the personnel and pledges of the new
ministry the latter will be unable to pass
imperial measures. and a dangerous dead
lock will enSue. which may lead to a grave
constitutional crisis.

government for the forfeiture of sG4, 900
worth of jewelry from Mrs. Philis +.
Dodge, Judge Brown. In the United States
district court today denied the motion Of
the attorneys for the government asking
for verdict on the three counts in the in
formation and waiving the one alleging
fraudulent intent. He also denied a motion
made by Mrs. Dodge's attorney instructing.
the jury to bring in a verdict for Mrs
Dodge.
The judge then charged the jury, saying
that the whole question was whether the
jewelry was brought in under false pre-
lenses or not.

Hearing Given Railroad and Steam
ship Lines.

Assistant Secretary Hackett Of the Navy
Department gave a hearing today to rep
resentatives of the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad Company. and the Cromwell Line
of steamers and the Southern Pacific Rail-
way Company, to decide a disputed ques-
tion concerning the award of the contract
for the transportation of sailors and
marines between eastern and western
points in the United States. The Chesa-
peake and Ohio company had the contract
for this service last year. with the result
that the government made considerable
saving in the transportation of sailors and
marines to warships at various ports. 1t is
understood that the company has been
underbid. however. for the transportation
service for the current year by the Crom-
well Steamship Line and the Southern Pa
cific Railroad Company. acting in COM
bination. The Chesapeake and Ohio COM
pany has raised a question as to the regu-
larity of the bid of the other two COM
pantes and the matter has been referred to
the assistant secretary for adjudication.
