If the machinists of Chicago and the

here will be shortlived; of the delegates

nothing and fight the battle on the or.gi-
mai issues the strike will probably last
for months. The situation is one of ifs. -
The strikers of this city now claim to
have nine signers to their contract all
Of whom are small contractors; the en-
ployers insist that not only have there
been on defections from the association
but that on the contrary there have been
a number of acquisitions to their ranks
since the strike began. VIII lie they ad-
nit that number of the firms are losing
money they claim that several of the
shops are holding their own and that
on the whole the employers are not sur-
fering as much financially as the men.
They claim the strikers have lost nearly
5000 in wages since they chose to quit
work. They still insist there is much
dissatisfaction among the men and that
they are looking for a reasonable pretext
on which to return to work.
SITUATION IS UNCHANGED.
The machinists' strike situation remains

employers show any signs of weakening.

Carrie Chapman Speaks on Female
Suffrage.

Mrs Carrie Chapman Gait, the noted
lecturer on woman's rights, addressed
a large audience at the Church of the
Redeemer last night on the subject of
woman Suffrage" Among other things
she said:
''The day of opposition to the enfran-
chisement of women on the part Of the
the strenuous efforts of the evil politt-
clans who largely control politics that
is the great stumbling block to the prog
resS of our cause. These men realize
that if women, with their high standard
of morality, are permitted to vote. their
power will soon be shattered A careful
study of the statistics of all the churches
in the country show that fully two
thirds of their membership is composed
Of women. On the other hand, the pen
itentiary reports show almost a solid
majority of men.
Il do not stand here tonight to advo-
cate any particular laws for the regula-
ton Of the liquor traffic. or to say what
laws should be enacted to prevent the
evil of prostitution; but when I know
that the Stars and Stripes are floating
over houses of prostitution in the Phil
1ppineS, l do say that it is time for
American women to be allowed to have
powers to remedy such shame. Do not
think that I believe that with the adj
vent of universal suffrage for women the
millennium will come. There IS no short
cut to the millennium That must be
worked out by time But I believe that
the acknowledgment of women is step
that must come.
81 am not here tonight to ask you to
grant women suffrage, but do ask that
when you go to your homes this even
ing you will give the subject careful and
conscientious consideration.

FIFTY YEARS OF WORK
GERMAN METHODIST EPISCOPAL
CHURCH CELEBRATES AN
ANNIVERSARY

The fiftieth anniversary of the German
Methodist Episcopal church, on Olive
street and Van Slyke court, was cele-
brated yesterday nearly every member
of the congregation being present to do
honor to the day The church has the
distinction Of being the first German
Methodist Episcopal church in this part
of the state. 1t was first built in 1851,
on the corner of Sixth and Broadway,
and was used for half dozen years
or more. Then another edifice was built
on the corner Of Sixth and Rosabel. In
1893 the present structure was built The
congregation started with about seven
members, and nowssr4a according to Rev
Frederick Kopp, of st. Paul, who gave
it's history, it has 315 members.
At the mornig exercises Bishop Isaac
w. Joyce, of Minneapolis, preached the
sermon in which he referred touchingly
to the good work of the congregation and
said he hoped that it. would meet with
as much success in the future as it
had in the past.
Rev E. J. Funk of FarlbauH. who
presided over the afternoon meeting, told
of the work of the congregation during
the time he was pastor He had charge
OF the congregation when the present
church was built, and he said the old
days formed pleasing part of his men,

Rev Mr. Kopp spoke with much fer
vor about the work of the congregation
in the early days when there were only
a few members. Then there was much
to do but the faithful few never for
a moment thought of giving up, feeling
that in the course of time their work
would tell and they would live to see
the results of their labors Now there
were few of the old members left, but
they We're still faithful to the church
and their familiar faces could be seen,
he said, almost any Sunday. Rev. G.

CHAIRMAN LEAVTTT THINKS STATE
INSTITUTIONS ARE ENTITLED
TO SOME CONSIDERATION
MANY RESORT TO BROKERS
Offers Made That Are Acceptable to
the Board, and These Will Be
Considered Unless Com
panies Act.

Insurance men in Minnesota are con-
siderably exercised over the stand taken
by Chairman S. w. Leavitt, of the board
of control, over the insurance Of the
state institutions. Mr.. Leavitt has taken
up the question of fire insurance direct
with the companies in an effort to Sc
cure uniform and reduced rates. In his
letter, dated st. Paul May "a. he states
that something over month ago the
board called Rater Fisher. of the Mime
sofa and Dakota Underwriters, and two
or three of the general agents and ex-
planned the situation. Mr.. Leavitt says
that he finds upon investigation that IN
surance on similar properties in other
states Is cheaper. while practically the
same companies carry the business. This
he does not think is either just Or
equitable. The letter concludes:
After waiting a month we have let
ter from Mr. Fisher informing us that
he has done nothing in the matter; that
many of the companies object to writing
insurance over the heads of their local
agents, and saying he could do nothing
We think that several millions of state
property is entitled to as much consld-
Grafton at the hands of insurance COM
panies as a line of elevators, and believe
that this matter should be taken up in
a DuSlneSS-like way and properly settled
We have written a letter to Mr.. Fisher
regarding the matter, but find that he Is
out of the state for an indefinite period.
We have propositions from several re-
sponsible brokerage offices offering to
place all Of the insurance of state prop
critics at a certain rate in companies
satisfactory to us, if we place the entire
matter in their hands. This we shall GER
tainly do unless some understanding is
arrived at Immediately whereby we can
cancel present policies pro rata and re-
insure at a satisfactory rate. I write
you. hoping you will take a personal
interest in the matter. and try and assist
us in arriving at a satisfactory basis. We
do not wish to do our business through
brokers' office, but if compelled to do
so. we shall not hesitate to establish
our purpose in that way.
