LOCKSTEP ABOLISHED.
Chicago House of Correction Changes
Method of March.

Chicago, July 27-The lockstep has
been formally abolished in the Chicago
House of Correction by Superintendent
John Sloan. Hereafter offenders con-
fined there for any period of time will
march two PAGES apart, heads erect,
hands and arms by the side and with
the keeping time step.
Superintendent Sloan and his staff
of assistants experim ented for a month
with the inmates of the house of cor
rection before deciding that the lock-
step could be done away with
For q number of years various charit-
able organizations and humane persons
have been striving to induce prison au-
thorities to substitute the free and
rythmicaP' step for the Iockstep. At
first a great deal of opposition was
manifested wardens and guards in
sisting they could not control the pris-
oners in line without it. Recently, how
ever, several leading prisons decided to
abandon the lockstep while other insti-
tutions in Ohio, Minnesota, Wisconsin
and Michigan are seriously considering
the proposition.

BROOKLYN BRIDGE.
Travel Resumed but Public View
Patched Rods With Distrust-

New York, July 27.-Although travel
has again been resumed over the
Brooklyn bridge, many people look at
the network of patched rods with sus-
picion.
All the broken rods are on the ex-
trerne northern one of the four big ca
bles that support the bridge. The rods
that broke are almost in the exact cen
ter of the bridge and are on either side
of the center slip, the name given to
the sliding apparatus that allows the
halves of the bridge to move together
or pull apart with the expansion and
contraction of the steel structure and
with the natural swaying of the bridge
A remarkable feature of the accident
is that the breaks are not all new.
Some of the fractures are eaten with
rust and look as if they were broken
months ago. Only three or four of the
breaks look clean and new.
The sight was a wonderful one when
the order came to let the people cross
the night of the accident.
The tramping thousands looked like
huge collection of picnickers- 1t was
hardly apparent that few of them mad
ever walked across the bridge before
It seemed more as if they had come to
the bridge expecting that they must
walk across it than that they had been
forced to do SO. There was no danger
and not a casualty.
1t was due to the excellent police ar
engagements that the order of the NOV
ing thronged was maintained. Police
men We're strung along the railing on
the south side of the promenade keep
ing the crowd continually on the move
Curious ones who stopped to look at
those behind them were firmly pushed
along, and for an hour there was hard
1y a halt in the procession
Every truck that went over the bridge
was filled with passengers. The good
nature extended to the truck drivers
and with hardly an exception they al
lowed men and boys to climb upoI.
their wagons.

reason for making such a disturbance
about cleaning up. SO some people be-
lieve, is to give employment to a. large
number Of men, and thus assist the adj
ministration in defraying its political
debts.
The sanitary policemen are given un-
limited discretion in CONCERNING
vaults, and the board never investi-
gates to see whether the condemnation
is just or not
A great many cases have occurred
which illustrate the workings OF this
system Yesterday, the crematory peo-
pie received a rush order to clean a
vault in Potwin. A wagon was sent
out, and it was discovered that the
same vault had been cleaned by the
crematory on July II. Many instances
are reported of cases where the vaults
are condemned without sufficient cause.
Instead of going over the city and hav-
ing the worst places cleaned first, the
sanitary policemen seem to be endeav-
Oring to make a record for the number
of condemnations made. This is no
doubt due to the laudable desire of the
sanitary policemen to make a good
showing on their weekly reports to the
board.
By attending to the worst cases first,
it is claimed that the crematory could
handle the work satisfactorily, and that
the city would not be put to the ex-
pense of building a chute, and hiring a
man to take charge of it. The chute
would probably cost 81, 900 and the man
$50 a month.

England Is Notified of Trouble
in Store For Her
Unless She Speedily Arrange 3
Peace in South Africa.
ROLE OF PEACEMAKER
Will Be Assumed by Emperor
William of Germany.
His Efforts VIII Be Backed Up
by Gear of Russia.

New York, July 27.-Following the
information cabled that rumors of an
important step toward enforcing peace
between England and the Beers had
pervaded the house of commons for
several days, came a speech by Gibson
Bowles, Conservative, that caused q
profound sensation. says the London
correspondent of the World.
Mr.. Bowles gave the government
solemn warning that unless peace were
made IN South Africa before spring
extremely grave complications would
confront England in Europe
The speaker declared further that
the negotiations had been proceeding
within six months and were still ac-
tive with the object of inducing or en-
forcing peace. In view of these condi-
tions, he said, England could not per-
sist in outraging the feelings of the
great powers without paying a heavy
penalty.
A ministerial contradiction of the
statements made by Mr.. Bowles was
looked for, but none came.
Upon inquiry in the lobby of the
author of the warning, q World CORE
spondent learned that Mr.. Bowles, who,
though a Conservative, is somewhat
disafected and more or less antagon-
tstic to the ministery, referred in his
Prem Ter Dekuyper of Holland, aided by
Queen Wilhelmina, by which he had
succeeded in interesting the emperor OF
Germany and the car of Russia SO
far that their negotiations were fast
approaching point where England
could no longer safely ignore them
Edmond Robertson, member of the
recently Liberal parliament, corrobO-
rated what Mr.. Bowles had said, and
declared that he spoke from his own
knowledge of the situation.
These public utterances, uncontra-
dicted by the government, taken in
conjunction with President kruger's
return to The Hague, and with the
journey of Mr.. LeEds, diplomatic agent
of the South African republics in
Europe, between Berlin, Brussels, The
Hague and Paris recently, point to i'm
portant developments at an early date
AS previously cabled, it is said that
the kaiser is to enter the role of peace
maker, having been empowered by
Kruger to act for the Beers; that the
kaiser is willing to take the initiative
in order to popularize his relations
with the German people, who disap
prove his friendship for Great Britain.

and the possible final results continue to
be discussed in Wall street TO the eNclu-
sion Of almost all other topics. The great
est stress appears to be laid upon the
damage to the corn crop, but some Of the
reports of crop experts yesterday sug-
gested the ACCESSIBILITY Of paying atten-
ton to the situation as regards wheat.
The Northwestern Miller, the st. Louis
Modern Miller" and Mr.. Snow. the sta
tistician OF the Orange Judd Farmer
have lust published their summaries ana
they agree pretty close in their estimates
of an unprecedented yield Of winter
wheat.
Their estimates are based largely on
actual threShing returns According to
Mr.. Snow, who has a high reputa ton for
conservatism, there is q prospect that the
records will be broken with yield OF
from 425 millien to 40 million bushels in
winter wheat. What is still more remark
able is that, notWithst anding recent re-
ports of considerable damage In the lower
Spring wheat regions. this expert IS WILL
ing to concede a spring wheat crop OF
about 300 million bushels.
These figures tally closely with many or
the estimates made by the transportation
companies and it is worth while to COM
pare them with the actual government
returns on winter and spring wheat Tor a.
series of years past.

SHOCK IN NEVADA.
An Earthquake is Followed by
q Severe storm.

Salt Lake, Utah. July 27.-A section
rs miles wide through the Nevada des-
ert from Deeth, as far west as Carlin.
experienced a series of heavy earth
quakes yesterday afternoon. The vibra-
tons were from north to south and at
one or two points lasted for fully FIVE
seconds. At Elkos New, the shock was
unusually severe. The high school
building, a big new brick edifice was
badly cracked by the violence of the
vibrations and other buildings were
slightly damaged. The earthquake at
this point was preceded and followed
by remarkable meteorological phenom-
ena. For some time preceding the
shock the air was perfectly still while
the heat was extremely oppressive. A
few minutes after the shock however, a
violent wind and rain storm accompa-
MED by heavy thunder and lightning
burst over the city. the rain continuing
for several hours
At Deeth goods were shaken from
shelves of the stores. The shock was
not felt so miles north of Elko.
