Avon crossing. Mr.. R. B. Harvey
and son were on the wagon. They
claim that the train gave no signal,
and they saw nothing of it until the
danger signal was blown. They were
prevented from hearing it on account
of the noise made by the mill. Mr..
Harvey saw he could not cross the
track safely, so he undertook to turn
his course and not cross. But before
he could clear the track the cow-catch-
er struck the left wheel of the wagon,
breaking it into pieces, knocked the
boy out of the wagon, and the lead
mule was knocked about 20 feet down
the road and cleared of its harness.
1t got up, walked back to the wagon
and fell dead. The shoulder of the
horse was badly bruised and it will
probably die. The boy was senseless
for few moments, but soon recovered.

He Takes Issue With Gompers on
Strikes.

CHICAGO, Dec. 18.-The second and
last day of the authorization and con-
Citation conference in session here, and
composed Of practical and experienced
men representing both capital and labor,
was marked by the first speech of the
conference as unequivooally in favor OF
compulsory arbitration of labor disputes.
This speech was delivered by the ven
cradle Hugh Fl. Lusk, ex-member OF
parliament of New Zealand. Mr.. LUsk
received the closest attention, for while
the great majority of other speakers dis
agreed with him, deeming compulsory
arbitration 1mpracticable in this coun-
try, his story of the success of the sys-
tenn in New Zealand aroused their deep
est interest Mr.. Lusk, in reply to Mr..
Gompers' assertion last night that it
was the laboring man right, under any
and all circumstances, or merely because
he pleased. to strike, declared that Mr..
Gompers was designating as liberty
what should be calledtlicense.
''In New Zealand, said the speaker,
''we want no such liberty. We do not
want to cause suffering among thou
sands Of our fellowmen merely because
we please to strike"

don Preacher Editor on Gambling.
KINGSTON, Jamaica, Dec. 18.-Serious
riots growing out of race feeling took
place in the streets of this city last
night. The chief rioters were several
hundred negro soldiers of the British
West India regiment, who were sup
ported by natives of their own color.
They attacked civilians in the street and
maltreated many so badly that they
were taken to the hospital and are I'M
der treatment for severe injuries.
Lieutenant Colonel Allen, who is In
command of the regiment, endeavored
to control his men but was unable TO do
so by persuasion. He then organized
the police and swore in citizens to aid i'll
keeping the peace.
The soldiers and petty officers have
refused to surrender to the police ana
defy their officers. IffSSst of them are In
the military camp and the streets Rls
guarded by the force of police and vol
unteers under Lieutenant Colonel Allen.
Severe measures will be taken against
them.
There is great unrest in the city and
vicinity and race feeling is at high
pitch. 1t is feared that something will
precipitate riots like the former fa5al
outbreaks.
Meetings in the vicinity of the mill
tary barracks have been abandoned I'M
der orders of the authorities and the
civilians have been warned to remain in
doors until the trouble Is over.

cLAYToN-BULWER TREATY.
BritOns Want Something In Exchange
For Its Abrogation.

LONDON, Dec. 18.--The Westminster
Gazette says:
owe all desire many things which are
barred by our neighbors' rights and we
can often get them for a price. The
Clayton Bulwer treaty may be vexa.
tious and obsolete, but it happens to ex-
ist We would have been willing to
abandon part of it without compensa-
ton, but if asked to abandon the rest we
may fairly ask for some kind of COM
pensation.
1.-The senate irritates us, not by the
exorbitancy of its demands, but by
it's apparent assumption that it can
abolish the treaty merely by calling it
inconvenient OF out of date. The way
out of the present difficulty is to get the
vexatious Alaskan boundary question
settled against the abrogation of the
Clayton Bulwer treaty. We can part
with the latter and oblige America with
out sacrificing anything vital or sub
stantially altering inevitable facts; but
we ought to get in exchange some
consideration from the United States
Governments -

cit is difficult to see, F." says Mr.. Died
rich, chow the proposed national legis-
lation can have any other effect in the
long run than to enhance the price of
the daily bread SO needful to every man,
woman and child in this country.
1t is impossible to understand, he
says, how the proposed duty can in
crease the crops of wheat throughout
Germany, or decrease the appetite Of
the German people.
At present, however, the consul says,
there seems little doubt that the pro-
posed law will be passed by the reich
stag. As large portion Of the impor-
tation of wheat is American grown, this
will seriously affect the interests of the
American farmer
"a duty OF 40 or so cents on every
bushel of wheat" concludes Consul
Diedrich, "cannot fail to be well nigh
prohibitive and the consequence will be
more limited markets. tiercer competi-
ton and lower prices to the producers. "
