SECURING NEGRO LABOR
To Supplant Strikers in Steel Mills
Negro Emigration From h South

Cleveland, O., August 1.-THE big
steel combine is utilizing negro labor
to %supplant its white workmen in the
Newburg mills here. Already a couple
of hundred of brawny colored men have
come to the city from Pittsburg, Home
stead and adjacent iron centers in
Pennsylvania. They are brought here
by n of their own ace who is acting
as agent for the Steel Corporation.
When the colored men arrive they are
sent to the mill where a large dwelling
house is used as a domicile.
Many more negroes, it is said, Will be
brought here and a general emigration
of colored workmen familiar with the
manufacture Of IRON and steel, from
the south, is ~prophesied by a colored
agent of the steel corporation.
The negroes from Alabama and Ten
nessee. according to the same authori-
ty. see in this strike a glorious oppor
tunity to improve their condition and
they are focking north in large num-
bers.
1t is also asserted that the Steel Cor
poration has given authority to its
agents to gather all the colored iron
workers possible and to center them
at the various points Of the strike.
It is claimed that the men who are
going into the mills here are practical
iron workers having lone similar work
elsewhere.

Hobson Advocates a powerful Navy

Madison. Wis, August 2.-Captain
Richmond P. Hobson delivered an adj
dress at the Monona Lake assembly
before 5000 persons today, taking Tor
his topic, THE American Navy
The address was a vigorous and elo-
ouent appeal for a stronger navy.
Every congress, he declared, should
appropriate at least s25, 000,0 600 for new
warships. The United States was des-
tined to become a great world power
and it was fitting that it should have a
navy strong enough to maintain 1t IN
every portion of the globe. This nation
was the natural protector of weaker
nations and the principle of the Mon
roe doctrine and the blessings or free
institutions should be extended
the world. To accomplish
this great task the United States should
keep a strong fleet in h Orient and
retain one at home, both of which
should be capable of holding their own
against any European fleet or ccnlbina-
ton of European fleets.

A SOFT COAL SYNDICATE
Formed With Fifty Million Dollars
Capital.

New York, August 1.-THE Mail and
Express says today:
1t was learned today that an under
writing syndicate of possibly 5O,OoO,o 600
had been formed to finance the consol-
idation of the bituminous coal proper
ties along the Norfolk and Western
Chesapeake and Ohio, and possibly also
the Hooking Valley, Baltimore ana
Ohio and other railroads in west VIZ
ginia, western Pennsylvania n ONO.
The syndicate will include prominent
banking interests of this city, PhlIaoei-
phia and Baltimore n perhaps Pitts
burg and other western cities. Judge
E. H. Gary, chairman of the United
States Steel Corporation, is understood
to be one of the leading spirits in the
deal and this is interpreted by some as
meaning that the steel trust will con-
troll the output. This. however, is not
true. Judge Gary, it is believed by
some, may represent ]. P. Morgan &
CO.. but this is not yet certain.
The design is to run the solft coal
business in harmony with the anthra-
cite trade, which Mr.. Morgan in a
measure controls.

ETHICS.

Frank W. Stiles, editor of the SPRING
field (Vt) Reporter. writing to a news
paper trade journal, says it is well
known that the code of medical ethics
does not allow physician to advertise
other than a business card, giving his
name, address and office hours, under
penalty OF being classed as a quack
But here is sample of ''news,b SAYS
Mr.. Stiles, that the dear doctors dearly
love to see in print, provided some cor
respondent will send it to a reputable
weekly, without money and without
price,
Mrs. Jane Calamity. who was skill
fully operated on for appendicitis, last
week, by Drs. Blank, of Skedunk, VT.
assisted by DIR. Blank, OF Joptown, N.
a., and DR.. Blank, of Wrapper Factory
Maine, is gaining rapidly under the
care of Miss Nellie Lallapaloosa, a
trained nurse, of Boston, and expects
TO De out very SOON"
The above is an actual copy of an
item sent to Mr.. Stiles paper a few
days ago, excepting the names, with
the statement that it would please the
doctors. AS doctors are not allowed to
advertise it was shorn of all advertising
matter and read:
Mrs. So-and-So, who was operated on
Tor appendicitis last week, is gaining
rapidly and will be out SOON"
Mr.. Stiles says that's call the news
that's hit to print, unless the gentlemen
who yank the 'vermicilli' from long
suffering public are willing to nav
reasonable advertising rates for ex-
plotting their operations.
