REPORTS FROM CONSULs.
American Machines Needed in Bo-
bemia-Our Trade at Trieste.

WASHINGTON, May 26.-Mr. Frederic
Emory. chief OF the Bureau OF Foreign
Commerce of the State Department, made
public to-day another chapter of the work
entitled Commercial Relations of the
United States for 1900.' which is now In
course of preparation. The chapter made
public deals with United States trade in
Austria. and consists of reports from Con-
suls Mahin at Reichenberg, and Hossfeld,
at Trieste.
Consul Mahin, of Reichenberg, says that
the Bohemian glass industry is suffering
through American competition. Not only
has the market OF the United States been
largely lost TO Bohemian manufactures,
but II is apprehended that eventually We
will food European markets with glass
goods In machinery, on the other hand,
We have not made the progress in intro
ducing our goods into Bohemia that we
should The consul says; Not one Of the
thousands OF factories in this district con-
tsins an American machine. None is seen
on a farm-in fact. not machine OF any
sort IS seen there-and consequently IL re-
mains a virgin field for the Introduction OF
United States agricultural implements.
There arc possibilities or introducing many
OF our products into this district. but none
equaling those for machinery. Our ma
chimes would met with a cordial welcome
as the United States is held in high esteem
by Austrian manufacturers

PHILADELPHIA, May 26-At the begin
ming of the second week of the machinsts'
strike the situation in Philadelphia is as
follows: Sixty-seven firms out Of 80 have
gone from the ten-hour to the nine-hour
day basis without reduction in wages
thus $500 machinists out of 1000 i'm the city
are working nine hours day; the machin-
lists employed by forty-one firms, number
ing 1000, continue on strike for a nine-hour
work day; several large firms have offered
compromises in reply to the unions de-
mands, and, in some cases, where their
workmen did not belong TO the union, the
compromise was accepted; forty-two firms
have not been affected by the strike be-
cause their machinists are thus far insult
ficiently organized to make a stand with
any chance of success. Strikes will probably
be ordered at some of the latter class of
places should the union officials deem it
practicable to take such action.

POWERS TOO GREEDY.
Indemnity Demands Viewed by the
President as Too Exactfng.

OGDEN, Utah, May 26-On the way back
to Washington the President and members
of the Cabinet are devoting d good deal of
time to consideration of the Chinese Ques-
ton. The declination of the other powers
to join in the suggestion of the United
States with regard to scaling down the in
demnity demanded Of China was a great
disappointment, though it could hardly be
said that it was entirely unexpected. The
necessities of European powers for the
maintenance of their large armies and
navies are. perhaps. factor in their pres
ent action. The President and members of
the Cabinet feel that this government was
right in protesting against exactions which
might force China to the wall. From the po-
sition taken by the United States there will
be no retreat The demands of the other
powers are considered exorbitant and like
ly, If insisted upon, to result ultimately in
the Gripping or dismemberment of the en-
pire. The United States VIII continue to
urge this view at every opportunity. If the
powers proceed alone, and force China 10
accede TO their demands, this government,
o. course, will accept the share of the in
demnity assigned to il on the present basis.
II can distribute such amount as Is neces-
sary to liquidate the claims OF our citizens,
and subsequently determine. IL such
course should be deemed wise, whether all
the remainder should be retained by this
government its proper share.
The United States is not in favor OF the
proposed scheme to raise and guarantee an
international loan for China, out of the
proceeds of which she can liquidate her in
debtedness 10 the powers. Inc United
States is willing TO accept the bonds of
China without Endorsement by any power,
at per cent. interest. and thus make mani
fest to the world the sincerity of the Amer
lean profession proclaimed at the outset,
that the United States desires to help
China to her feet and preserve her pres
ent integrity.

MRS. M'KINLEY Is WELL
RAIN LAID THr.. DUST ON THE DES-
ERT WASTES OF NEVADA,
And the Presidents Wife Had an En-
jOyabIe Ride Into the Salt Lake
Basin of Utah.

OGDEN, Utah, May 26.-The presiden-
tial train traversed the State of Nevada
to-day, and reached Ogden at $50 o'clock
tonight. The route lay along the Humboldt
river, through the Ruby and Wasatch
mountains and then descended into the
Salt lake basin. A stop of fifteen minutes
was made at ogden. A big crowd was at
the station and the local post of the G.. A.
r. was drawn up alongside of the track.
Governor Wells, of Utah, with Chief Justice
Bartsch, of the Supreme Court, Senator
Kearns and Judge James A. Miner had
como from Salt Lake to greet the Presi-
dent He appeared on the rear platform
and shock hands with a number of people,
but did not make any remarks.
During most of the journey to-day the
elevation exceeded 5000 feet and snow-clal
peaks were continually in sight from the
car windows. AT this season of the year
the ride across Nevada is exceedingly dis
agreeable. The heat is oppressive and the
dust from the desert is frequently blind
ing. Fortunately for Mrs. Mckinley one
of those heavy rain-storms which so rare
ly visit this region swept completely over
the State last night, laying the dust and
tempering the atmosphere. 1t rained also
several times during the day. The weather
seemed almost like a special Intervention
of Providence for the benefit of the gentle
sufferer. Mrs. Mckinley passed a COM
Portable night crossing the Sierras last
night, but the trip to-day was looked for
ward to with some apprehension. The rain
however, relieved the anxiety, and Dr.
RiXey reported tonight that Mrs. Mckinley
was standing the trip very well. She SUI
fere1 no inconvenience from the rarified
atmosphere.
The day aboard the train was passed
without incident. The President makes 1t
rule ordinarily not to travel on Sunday
but the present circumstances were so ex-
ceptional that he ignored his compunctions
in order that his wife might the sooner
reach home. No service was held aboard
the train. but the President and the mem
bers of the Cabinet kept quietly to their
rooms the major portion of the day. Once
or twice when the train stopped for water
they alighted TO stretch their limbs At
Carlin early this morning the President
shook hands with some of the people who
had gathered there, among them number
of Digger Indians who lived in the neigh
boring mountains.
Chicago. according to the present
schedule. will be reached Tuesday after
noon and the train is expected TO arrive
at washington Wednesday night.

ONE WILL LOSE HIS JOB
BOTH TILLMAN AND M'LAURIN CAN
NOT RETURN TO THE SENATE.
Latter's Unexpired Term Will Be
Filled by New Man Under the
Senator'S Agreement.

COLUMBIA, S. c., May 26.-It is under
stood that Senator McLaurin and Senator
1illman have a tacit agreement to contest
for the long term TO which Tillman was
elected last January. Under the state
Democratic party rules the candidate must
designate specifically the office to which he
aspires Whether McLaurin wins over Till
man or Tillman is reelected, McLaurins
unexpired term will be filled by new man.
There are four announced candidates-As
bury c. Latimer, congressman from the
Third district and said to be Tillman's lieu
tenant; d. s. Henderson, state senator from
Aiken Col George Johnstone, eX-congress-
man from the Third district, and Willie
Jones, chairman Of the state Democratic
executive committee and executive officer
of the South Carolina National Bank. Be
tween tombstone and Latimer there is
good feeling, and this race may be as in
teresting as it promised to be before the
conditions were changed and McLaurin, as
IL were, put on the offensive. The Governor
has the right to appoint regardless of party
action, and an effort will be made to get
HIM to appoint new men on the ground that
Iillman and McLaurin have overstepped
the bounds of propriety.
The State (newspape) editorially will to-
morrow call on third candidate TO go
into the race with Tillman and McLaurin,
hoping that the two latter will be de-
feated.

lNDORSED BY THE UNION
TUNNEL STRIKE TO BE SUPPORTED
BY NEW YORK UNIONIsTs.
All Work On the Subway May BE Tied
Up If Contractors Do Not Grant
Wages Demanded.

NEW YORK, May 26.-The Central Fed
Grated Union of New York, representing all
of the labor organizations of the city, to-
day at its weekly meeting indorsed tho
rapid transit tunnel strike. According to
labor leaders this will result in complete
tie-up Of work on the subway unless the
contractors accede 10 the demands Of the
striking engineers and rock drillers. The
action taken by the Central Federated
Union was in direct opposition to the
wishes Of its president John J. Pallas. who
has been laboring for some time to estab-
lish friendly understanding between the
employers and employees. Regardless of
this, however, the union decided that the
walking delegates who ordered the strike
should be commended and in the face of the
fact that the union iniorsed and approved
an agreement which has been submitted
to the subcontractors providing that all
questions of wages, hours, ETC., shall be
decided by arbitration, the members pres
ent voted unanimously to support and ap-
prove the action of the strikers.
