O for the Honor.

Paris, May 22.-The committee in
charge of the quadrennial Olympian
games, at it's meeting at the Automo-
bile club Tuesday, selected Chicago as
the place for holding the contests in
1904.
Chicago was chosen unanimously.
Henri Breal presented Chicago's
claim. Count Penaloza urged the
claim of St. Louis. Baron Coubertin
presided. The meeting was brief, as
the choice of Chicago was a foregone
conclusion. Baron Coubertin said to
the correspondent Of the press:
Chicago well deserved to be the scene
of the next Olympic games, in view of the
enterprise shown by her citizens and the
efforts put forth by her university. There
is every promise that there will be a great
gathering in 1901, in view of the enormous
subscription being raised.
The meeting at which the matter
was decided was held in the Automo-
bile club. 1t was presided over by

large firms have settled down to a
fight, and have opened headquarters
in Odd Fellows temple, where daily
meetings are held. At their session
Tuesday afternoon they refused to

Closed the Works.
Dunkirk, N. Y, May 22.-Because
700 machinists employed at the
Brooks locomotive works struck
Tuesday for a nine-hour day and
12h per cent. increase in pay, Presi-
dent Frederick H. Stevens directed
Superintendent McNaughton to issue
an order closing the works until fur
ther notice. This throws 1900 men
out of work. The Brooks Co. is one
of the firms included in the American
Locomotive company, and it is impos-
sible to say how long the lockout will
last. The locomotive works is the
principal industry of the town, and
its closing will be a serious blow to
business men.

the Pacific coast where a number of
warships are under construction, and
it is expected that eastern yards hav-
ing naval ships to build also will be
affected. The war department was
informed that the strike was likely

Word has reached the department
that government employees are con
tributing funds in support of the
strike movement, but no attention
will be paid to this matter.
