LABOR RIOTS IN CHICAGO,
Three Men Seriously Injured Will,
Working NOn-Union Job,


CHICAGO, April 26-Three men were
seriously injured in the trades union labor
war upon non-union workmen today. The
injured are:
Patrick Tansey, teamster, seriously in
jured by mob
Henry Scheilhorn, teamster, badly beaten
by mob.
Stephen Gaul, carpenter slugged from
behind by three men.
Tansey and Schellborn were engaged in
hauling sand to the Western Electric build
ing. against which a strike is directed
They had dumped the sand in front of the
building, when a mob of fifty men, said to
be mostly pickets, began hurting bricks
stones and paving blocks at them. The
strikers then closed in on Tansey and
Schellhorn and pounded and kicked them
The arrival of the police dispersed the mob
and the injured men We're taken to their
homes
Gaul. who is sixty years of age was going
10 MS work when set upon. Oscar Mold a
union carpenter. was arrested and charged
with participating in the assault
A complaint was made today that the
girls who are to sing in the chorus which
is to be feature Of Dewey day have been
threatened with violence II they persist in
attending rehearsals. The threats are said
to have been made by union pickets and
their sympathiZers, who, according to Prof.
Gabriel katzenberger. have been standing
guard at the entrance to Steinway Hall,
where the rehearsals take place, frightening
some OF the girls away and causing general
CONSERVATION. The unions are arrayed
against the whole celebration committee
because the Dewey grand stand is being
built by non-union men. Prof katzenbergar
is in charge Of the chorus and has applied
to the police for protection.

HIS CAUSTIC COMMENTS
CAPT. CHADWICK MAY BE CALLED
TO ACCOUNT FOR THEM.
Not Likely That Anything Will Be
Done Until the Secretary's
Return.

A question that is agitating the friends
of Capt. F. E. Chadwick, U. s. N, is
whether he Is to be called to account or
disciplined in any way for his caustic COM
ments on the Sampson-Schley controversy.
Captain Chadwick had command Of Ad-
miral SIMPSONS flagship, the New York.
during the battle of Santiago bay and he
has always been an ardent partisan Of Ad-
miral Sampson. He has never attempted
to conceal his contempt for the course of
Admiral Schley, and has made a number Of
public statements to the discredft of that
officer. According to the friends Of Ad-
miral Schley, he has at last overstepped the
bounds of propriety, however, in recent
newspaper interview, and has rendered
himself liable to punishment for violation
of section 236 of the naval regulations,
which prohibits public criticisms of naval
officers by their colleagues.
His Alleged Utterances.
The alleged utterances Of Capt. Chadwick
that are objected to are as follows:
Every one of US feels the disgrace that
Schley has put upon us. 1t is not Sampson
or Schley that We care about or are anxious
to vindicate. 1t is the honor of the navy
that has been assailed. its esprit du corps
that has received a serious blow, and in the
opinion of officers it has been injurious to
us abroad by a disgraceful exhibition of
pettiness of which Admiral Schley has been
guilty.
Il have for him only contempt. 1 would
not shake his hand if he offered it to me.
and in this l believe l simply re-echo the
sentiments of almost the entire navy. If
Admiral Schley desires a vindication, let
him ask for an investigation of his conduct.
The men who fought the ships at the bat
tie of Santiago, and the general public,
am sure, desire such an investigation, and
will be willing to abide by the result, what
ever it may be-
Awaiting the Secretary's Return.
1t is said at the Navy Department that
the matter has not been officially brought
to the attention of the officials but it is
admitted that If that is done it will be IN
vestigated. 1t is not likely, however, that
any action will be taken in the absence of
Secretary Long, who has gone to Boston
and will not be back before next Monday.
The usual course of procedure in such
cases is for the Secretary to call upon the
officer for an explanation of his conduct
and in case the explanation is not satisfac
tory to order a court of inquiry. What
is regarded as making the offense of Cap
tain Chadwick more serious is that his
assertions were made in the absence and
inability of Admiral Schley to reply.

1t is learned that Mr.. Griscom's note is
founded on the State Departments instruc-
tfons to press vigorously the claim for in
dc mnity already lodged with the porte. The
note is not an utimatum in any sense, but
Is in continuation Of the expressed deter
mination of the State Department to eX-
haust all peaceful and proper means to
secure a settlement of these American
Claims.
1t is not doubted that the Turkish gov
ernment would speedily meet our desires in
that matter could the claims be adjust ed
privately and without the knowledge of the
European ambassadors in Constantinople,
but that is impracticable. The Turkish
government, it is believed, is embarrassed
at the necessity of settling all the claims
of European countries for large sums of
money, involved in the allowance of the
American claims. The expectant attitude
of the European diplomatic agents In Con-
stantinople during the active prosecution Of
the American negotiations is probably the
basis for such stories as that put afioat to
the effect that the Russian government was
secretly backing Turkey in opposition to
the settlement with the United States. 1t
is realized that the Turkish government is
not at all averse to the spread of belief in
the truth of that story, but Is held here
that there is no foundation in fact for it.

REGARDED AS "ALLowANCE.,
Distinction Raised Over Money Given
Officials in Cuba.

The friends Of the administration in the
Senate are somewhat disturbed by the fact
disclosed in the reply Of the Secretary of
War to the Bacon resolution that the order
making the extra allowance to American
officers in Cuba designated that to the gov-
ernor general Of Cuba and the governor of
Havana as salary" The republicans are
prepared to defend the allowance, but the
designation of this allowance as salary
appears to present violation of law which,
though 1t be pronounced technical, may be
difficult to justify except upon the grounds
taken by Platt of Connecticut that the
power Of the President is above statutory
law when acting under military law.

WITHDRAWAL FROM CUBA
SENATOR MASON WANTS OUR TROOPS
SENT HOME.
Introduces Joint Resolution of Re-
quest to the President-SiEnifca
Military Transfer.

Senator Mason today introduced a joint
resolution in the Senate requesting the
President to withdraw the forces of the
United States from Cuba SO as TO turn the
government of that island over to the Gu
bans by the 4th of next July.
The resolution is preceded by a preamble
setting forth that in entering upon the
war with Spain the United States dis
claimed any disposition or intention to ex-
ercise sovereignty over the island: that
the United States is under treaty obliga-
ton to give independence to the Cuban
people; that the continuance of the United
States in possession of the island has eX-
cited the attention of the world and is ex-
citing the apprehension of the people of
CUBA: that under the Monroe doctrine the
island is safe from foreign invasion: thar
the Cubans have shown a disposition to
make their best efforts to govern them
selves and can undoubtedly do so without
endangering life or property. and that the
United States has done all that could be
expected of it
The full text Of the resolution follows:
That the President of the United States
Is hereby requested to withdraw the forces
of the United States as rapidly as NAV be
done with convenience and safety, and that
on the 4th day of July. 1900, all civil and
military power of the United States be
turned over and surrendered to the people
of the Island of Cuba
Senator Mason says that the Cubans must
be turned loose to govern themselves sooner
or later, and that the shortest way for
them to learn self-government is 10 begin
the practice speedily. They may have revo-
lutions at first, ne says. and perhaps xii!
as many people are killed in Illinois. bat
they will learn by experience to govern
themselves.
Significant Transfer
Orders have been issued for the transfer
of lis men of the depot battalion of the 1st
Infantry from Fort Leavenworth, Kan to
Havana, Cuba, of 1870 men of the depot
battalion of the 9Th Infantry from Fort
Sheridan, Ill, to Santiago, Cuba, and
eighty-five men of the depot battalion of
the Sth Infantry from For; Smelling, Mimi
to Havana. These transfers are made with
a view to the distribution of the men to
companies of the active battaliOnS in Cuba
A possible significant feature of the orders
for these transfers is that the selections are
confined to men who have not less than
one year to serve in their present enlist
ment. That is taken to mean that the
military occupation of CUBA is not likely to
be entirely abandoned for at least a year
to come.

ONLY HIS ARMY PAY.
DENIAL of Charge Concerning Lieut.
Brooks, Auditor of Cuha

Acting Secretary Meiklejohn of the War
department Is authority for the statement
that the charge which has been made that
Lieut. T. c. Brooks of the army, recently
assigned as auditor Of Cuba, is drawing the
salary fixed for the auditor of Cuba of
S4'oJo per annum and an allowance from
the treasury of Cuba Of 81 800 per annum
for Incidental expenses, making a total Of
officer as auditor of the island In addition
to his army pay of $2O70.96 per annum, is
an absolute fabrication and falsehood. The
fact Is, says Mr. Meiklejohn that Lieut..
perform the duties of auditor of the Island
of Cuba, and the only compensation he is
receiving for his services in that capacity is
his army pay.

Uncle Sans Big Canal.

A deep waterway at Nicaragua be-
tween the two oceans is already bus
mess and political necessity to
the United States. The trade with
China requires it, the government of
Hawaii and the Philippines require it,
and, if we hold to the Monroe doc
trine, the defense of a continent may
require it.
With gratifying unanimity the
House has passed a bill authorizing its
construction. But Senate action, it is
expected, will be delayed perhaps I'M
til the next session of congress.
Meantime the people should be well
aware of some important features of
the bill as it now stands. 1t makes
the government the proprietor of a
gigantic industrial enterprise which
will carry weight in the argument for
further extension of government own
ership of public enterprises, as rail
roads, telegraph lines, etc. This is a
departure from the conservative idea
of the past that ''the function of gov
eminent is simply to govern" There
is no doubt, however, that the canal
once built by government dollars must
be defended by the government.
The. bill also puts the whole $14O,-
100000 for buying territory and for
construction under the control of the
president. without any requirement
that contracts be submitted to the
representatives of the people for their
approval. This is said to be the larg-
est power ever delegated by congress
to a president, and while it shows
great confidence in President McKin-
ley, there is question if congress gives
over to him this tremendous RESPONSE
bility. and question as what effect it
may have, as precedent, on the action
of other congresses and other presi-
dents.
