SEERESS WAS STRAIGHT
ONE FORTUNE TOLD CORRECTLY
Chicago WOman's Skepticism Is
Jared by Strange
Experience.

Chicago, Aug. 29.-Mrs. A. H. Hoffman
Of this city was formerly merry skeptic
when fortuna tellers and seeresses were
mentioned. She averred that the seventh
daughters were seven-ply frauds and that
they should be run out of business on the
charge of obtaining money under false
pretenses. Now she is marveling at the
powers displayed by one of the tribe and
vowing that this particular queen of magic
has several aces on all the necromancers
of old.
Some weeks ago. merely fer amusement.
Mrs. Hoffman visited a North Side seeress
and after having crossed the mystic palm
with unmyStic silver was given sundry in
formation. She was told that she had a
brother-which was correct-and that the
brother was working in a far-of country.
which was also correct, as the brother,
Leyland Hill, was at the time employed
in Las Vegas, N. NJ. The fortune teller
then informed Mrs. Hoffman that her
brother was soon to suffer from a serious
accident and then exclaimed that he was
doomed to die. Mrs Hoffman went home
and paid little attention to the gloomy
forebodings until a week ago, when she
received a letter from Las Vegas. Open
ing it she found that the first paragraph
read:
Dear SISTER, have fallen of scaffold ard
am now in the hospital.
Yesterday Mrs Hoffman received a teIe-
gram. 1t read:
Your brother dying; operation necessary,
but probably unsuccessful Come at once.
The message was signed by the warden
Of the Las Vegas hospital.

COMBINE SHOULD YIELD
Situation AnaIyxedr by Two Labor
Leaders.

New York, Aug. 29.-Frank P. Sargent,
grand chief of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen, before leaving this city
last night for his home in Peoria, ILL.,, said
Of the steel strike:
think that, as President Shaffer of the
Amalgamatsd Association has receded from
his original demands Mr. Morgan could af-
ford to be magnanimous and settle the strike.
My interest in it lies in the fact that the
settlement of the strike will have such far
reaching effect generally.
The same tone was adopted by Henry
White, general secretary of the United
Garment Workers, who said:
Mr. Shaffer has modified his demands and
made some concessions reluctantly at our
intercession. The executive officers Of the
Amalgamated Association regard Mr.. Morgan
very highly and believe. him to be broad
and fair-minded. They have not as high an
opinion of the officials of the United States
Steel corporation, however.
Mr.. White said that as soon as word IS
received from President Shaffer to go
ahead with negotiations, Professor jerks,
John Mitchell Samuel Gompers and the
other members of the committee on con-
ciliation will meet in this city and try
to arrange peace proposition.

PITTsBURG RESUME
Disbursement of Strike Funds to
Begin Next Week.

Pittsburg, Aug. 29.-The strike situation
continues quiet and devoid of interesting
features While the strikers still express
satisfaction with the prevailing condi-
tions, the steel corporation is slowly but
steadily increasing its forces at the plants
already in operation and is preparing to
open more mills. With this end in view
and because of ample police protection,
the American Tin Plate company is said
to have made its Star plant, in this city.
school of instruction. Skilled men are
in charge who are instructing other men
in the mysteries OF tin plate making.
When the novices show sufficient degree
Of proficiency they are to be sent to other
plants. Managers of various plants Of
the company will be there every day plac-
ing and teaching the new men. The man
agement OF the works says that 25O men
are at work there now, but this is denied
by the Amalgamated officials They also
claim that the plant is so small that it
would take many years to turn out enough
men to work the other plants
President Shaffer officially denied sew
eral stories printed in the papers to-day.
He said there was no truth in the report
that the Amalgamated Association was
making efforts to effect a settlement of
the strike by trying to force the United
States Steel corporation into arbitrate
through the courts, and that John R.
Byrne, a small stockholder and former
labor leader, had been requested to Join
in petition asking for the appointme q
OF board. This statement is also denied
by Mr.. Byrne.
The report that the Amalgamated
lodges were voting on a peace proposition
was also denied by Mr.. Shaffer, who said:
There has been no vote Of any kind taken
by US The lodges may have taken votes on
their own account, but none has been ordered

Ambassador COnstaHs Declares He
VIII Never Return.
NesU KOrk SW4s Special SersIes
Paris, Aug. 29.-It Is now said that the
government was considerably astonished
by the decision of N. Constans, French
ambassador to Turkey to leave CONSTANT
nople. The government certainly did not
dictate his departure. NJ Bapst, council
lor OF the embassy, has informed the gov
ernment that M. Constans did not trouble
himself to accredit him as charge daft
faires. An interviewer who met NJ. Con-
stas jcurneying west was struck by his
complete lack OF anxiety to return to Con-
stantinople. He was asked If he would
speedily return to the Turkish capital and
said in reply: Never in my life. 1t is
the end
NJ. Constans admitted that NJ. Grande,
one of the directors of the quay company
was formerly his private secretary. He
said he was utterly disgusted by the sultan
not keeping his promises, adding: Even
at the last hour previous to my departure
he tried to prevaricate."
NJ. Constans is convinced that France
will carry out honorably the. dispute he
has energeticalIy undertaken. What
struck the interviewer, who saw him in
Vienna, was that VI. Constans was much
interested in French domestic politics.

Delcasse. In an interview afterwards, NJ
Constans said he would not return to
Constantinople until the dispute is set
tied. NJ. Delcasse at to-day's conference
stated that NJ. Constans had acted in per-
feet accord with the the views Of the gov
ernment. The ambassador did not think
the sultan would hold out very long,
while as to the possibility of war between
France and Turkey, M. Constans said it
was quite out of the question.
The Echo de Paris says it learns that
II the sultan does not satisfy the French
demands within twenty-four hours, sur
veillance over the young Turkish party in
France will no longer be enforced

Familiar Declaration From
Steel President Schwab.
REJECTS BURNS PLAN
Window Glass Workers President
Suggested Arbitration.
SAYS STRIKE HURTS BUSINESS
Mr. Burns, Not Discouraged, VIII
Again Take the Matter Up
With MIR. Schwab.

Indianapolis, Ind, Aug 29.-The plan
of arbitration for the settlement of the
great steel strike submitted by Simon
Burns, president OF L. A. 3002, the ma
tional organization of window glass work.
ers, atSd also the head of the knights Of
Labor, has been rejected by President
Schwab OF the steel trust. Another propo-
sition will be submitted to him by Mr..
Burns tomorrow. The latter, who ar
rived here early to-day to attend a meet
ing of representatives OF the three window
glass combines and the jobbers associa-
tions, said that his first plan of arbitra-
tion, which was made public last night.
was submitted to Mr.. Schwab Aug. q,
but that he received no reply to 1t until
yesterday when Mr. Schwabs secretary
telegraphed him from New York that his
chief would not consider the proposition.
Said Mr.. Burns:
l submitted my. plan to Mr. Schwab merely
as a suggestion, ard if there is anything in it
that is objectionable to the trust officials it
can be modified When l return to Pittsburg
tomorrow l shall take the matter up again
with Mr. Schwab in the hope Of making some
kind of an arrangement whereby the strike
question be submitted to arbitration.
think that a start toward settlement of the
strike should he made somewhere at once,
as it is hurting business. If it is true. as Mr..
Schwab says. that there is nothing to arbi-
trate, why. cannot see where mis- side would
be injured by submitting TO arbitration. 1t
would be different, OF course, if the matter
should be submitted to interested parties, but
that was not the plan. l think that President
Shaffer Of the An.algamated Association has
acted fairly in agreeing to submit his side
OF the trouble to arbitration.
Mr.. Burns thinks that if Mr.. Schwab
would agree to arbitration, J. P Morgan
and his assistants in the steel combination
would not interfere. He believes that the
entire matter, so far as the trust is con-
cerned, could be left in the hands of Mr..
Schwab, and that it will depend on him
whether or not the strike is for the pres
ent settled by arbitration. When asked
what effect he thought a defeat of the
strikers might have on organized labor,
Mr. Burns said that it could not help
but hurt organized labor throughout the
country. At the beginning of the strike
Mr.. Burns came forward with a. PROPOSE
tion to give a part of his salary to help
the strikers. and he has taken an active
part from the start in trying to bring
about q settlement.
Mr.. Burns proposed an arbitra-
tion committee selected from such
men as Archbishop ireland, Bishop
Potter, Seth Low, NJ. A. Hanna and others
Of like prominence, who, after having the
entire matter explained to them by both
sides to the controversy, shall have alb
solute authority to decide upon terms of
settlement, their decision to be final and
accepted by both parties.

SCHLEY AND HOWISON

B"ttdtN0, WrShtsagtOS.
Washington. Aug 29.-It is distinctly
asserted by officials of the navy depart
ment that no notice of withdrawal has
been received from Admiral Howison but
so much secrecy and mystery attends all
such announcements as to give rise to all
sorts OF speculative conjectures. 1t is
generally assumed that the Schley ad-
nerents do not really desire to have
Howison taken off the court but rather
to go as far as they can without accom-
publishing that result in the direction of
convincing the country In advance that
the tribunal Is packed and so secure a
certain discount in the popular mind from
any of the findings that might prove dis
Quieting.
The Impression prevails to-day that w.
H. Stayton. who has been suspected for
some time of being quietly at work on

est OF Admiral Sampson While it is
pointed out that it would be somewhat
unusual for one of the witnesses. as Ad-
mlral Sampson is, to have an attorney,
there would be nothing irregular about
II, since the court itself has full au-
tnorlty In all such matters It is not the
ordinary procedure for the defendant in

but Admiral Schley will be very ably rem
resented, and such is the Importance Of
this court that no one has questioned its
propriety In the same way the i'm

Cox of Brainerd Arena Roughly Handled by
Three Men Having Faces Painted and
Wearing False Boards.
Another Chapter in the Strenuous Life of the
Editor THE Outrage Condemned
on All Sides.

Special to The Journal
Bralnerd, Mimi, Aug. 29-It is a siren
uous life that w. s. Cox, editor of the
arena, seems to be leading these days.
only the other day, after having INDUCED
IN some inuendoes in his gladiatorial paper
ne was chased up street and into butch
er's ice box by Al Ferris, lawgiver, bank
er and political boss of Crow Wing county.
Lastnight the editor was boldly kidnapped
taken off to a secluded place and treated to
shower bath Of tar, by three disguised
men.
Mr. Cox Is apparently not popular in this
community. At least, he seems to have
acquired some enemies who have not liked
the utterances of his paper But the
community, while 1t laughed at the specta-
Gle OF the fleeing editor and the enraged
legislator brandishing a hammer in hot
pursuit, does not at all approve of the
"hltecap method Of showing disapproval
OF the Arenas course and last nights out
rage is condemned roundly by everyone.
including the redoubtable Mr.. Ferris him
self and the other enemies Cox has made.
And SO there is the greatest interest in
Mr., Cox's promise to discover and prose-
cute both criminally and civilly the bold
trio that filed his hair with tar last night.
1t happened this way:
How the Deed Was Done.
Mr. Cox and a friend, Fred Stout, chief
clerk in the Office Of the Missabe & Iron
Range road. went calling on two young
ladies at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. e.
B. Mccullough. The quartet was sitting
on the front porch when three men with
false boards and painted faces suddenly
appeared. Stout was told that he was not
the man wanted and that no harm would
befell hi1n If he kept hands off. One Of the
men thrust revolver in his face, while
the other two laid hands upon Cox and
sought to carry him bodily to a buggy
standing in the road.
Stout was not intimidated, but tried his
best to save his friend Cox, whereupon
the man with the revolver struck him over
the head with his weapon, cutting the

then incontinently lugged off and Stout
hurried down town to give the alarm.
Cox Returns All Betarred.
There was great excitement and parties
were formed to pursue the bold trio and
rescue the unlucky editor. But no trace
of either could be found. But little be-
fore midnight Cox struggled into town in
pitiable condition. His hair and face
and clothing were covered with tar and
he was laboring under great excitement.
He managed to tell his story-which was
brief and tragic The kidnappers, he said,
had driven him rapidly to point be-

yond the Brainerd company's lumber MILL
two miles east of the city. There they
halted while one man held him, second
covered him with a revolver and the
third took off his hat and poured the tar
over his head and shoulders. The men
then vanished without a word and left
him to find his way back to town. as best
he could.
The editor declares that he knows who
two Of the men are, despite their painted
faces and false boards and that he will
forthwith take steps to secure satisfaction.
intimating that civil as well as criminal
suits will be brought. Stout also has
good case for assault against the men, and
if their identity is established he, too, may
prosecute.
Mccullough IL Angry
About the angriest man in town, how
ever is E. B. Mccullough. Not only was
his home invaded, but it is asserted that
one Of the men pointed a revolver at his
daughter. Mr.. Mccullough says that the
matter will not be allowed to rest, but
that he will do his best to run down and
punish the perpetrators of the outrage.
1t is generally believed that the white
cappers are friends of Mr.. Ferris, but it
is not believed he inspired or was even
cognizant Of the plot. Cox has made
other enemies than Ferris and is cordially
disliked by many for the policy he has
pursued in his paper. Nevertheless, the
hlgh-handed outrage Of last night is not
palliated, and public sentiment will justify
vigorous prosecution if the kidnappers can
be found.
Few Words Were Spoken.
The newspaper man seems to take his
strange adventure very lightly and is at
work to-day as though nothing had hap
pened. He is keeping his own counsel
pretty we'll. If he believes that Ferris
had anything at all to do with the kid
kapping, he has at least not said SO in
any public or semi-public way.

to I n a correspondent, II said
to the men, What are you going to do
with me?' No reply was made and these
were the. only words spoken, except that
a little later one of my assailants re-
marked TO the fellow who was sitting
upon me and holding me down in the
spring wagon, Don't hurt him.
After we reached the stopping place

while another took off my hat, turned back
my coat collar and smeared me with tar.
Not word was spoken and this part of

particular resistance after 1 was dragged

up for the occasion"
When the editor reached town he lost
no time in finding his friend Stout and In
getting cleaned up and securing a change

$750,00O during the day to Chicago, of

At least $1,OOO,oOO was sent from the

New York exchange was quoted yesterday
in Chicago at so cents discount, which is
the shipping point and in the afternoon it
was at 80 cents, so that it was cheaper to
make shipments than take exchange.

Brainerd, Mimi, Aug. 29.-Sheriff Tan
ner OF Morrison county has traced the al
legged murderers of John McGrath to

Ing closely to the descriptions furnished
by young Paul McGrath, who was with
his brother at the time of the murder
and only escaped death himself by
jumping from the cars
The officers are assisted in the search
by citizens, stimulated by the reward Of
