STATE HOUSE DESERTED.
Everybody Gone but the Clerks and
Some Mechanics.

The state house is as nearly deserted
this hot weather as is possible, and
those poor, overwo rked, underpafd and
perspiring clerks and under officials
who have to be the man behind the
gun while the real politicians and cor
pulent Office holders are away III
cooler climes, are trying to worry along
and do the work with a boiler shop at
tachment.
A gang of mechanics with hammers,
chisels and sledges are pounding away
continuously on the iron beams pre-
paratory to putting on a few more
patches of plaster 50 as to use up the
present appropriation. After the plas-
tering is finished someone will prob
ably leave a spigot running and the
plastering will then have to be done
again. But anyway, the n echanics are
giving the best imitation of a boiler
factory that can be found. A boiler
maker would feel perfectly at home
anywhere in the state house. The noise
is terrific, intense and N addening- The
few who have to work put in half the
time swearing at the mechanics.

MAY SHORTEN WAR.
British Derive Comfort From
Mrs. Kruger's Death.

New York. July ga dispatch to the
Tribune from London says:
The death of Mrs. Kruger may have
some influence in shortening the war
Mr.. Kruger himself has been reported
to be exceedingly Respondent over the
military operations and the correspon-
dence between Reitz and Steyn han JUS
tilted his encouragement. His domestic
bereavement may cause him to lose
heart for continuing a hopeless strug-
gle His doctors have been warning
him for months against the conse-
ouences of excitement, since his heart
action is abnormally weak.
The story is brought by influential
South Africans that General Botha was
strongly disposed to surrender, but did
not consider himself at liberty to do
so against the judgment of Mr. Kruger.
General Botha has a family to provide
for, and is without resources. South
Africans assert that he is dependent
upon allowances which Mr.. Kruger has
agreed to make for him if he continues
the struggle as long as possible.
There is no practical method of veri-
flying these explana tons, but this &C
count comes from South Africans who
ought to know what they are talking
about.
The newspapers refer IN tones of
sympathy to the death of Mrs. Kruger
It is expected that the British army in
South Africa will pay to her in death
honors which her former position would
have demanded

If New Men Are Put on Freight
Handlers Will Go Out.
Finally the Sailors May Take
the Matter Up.

San Francisco, July 22.-It has been
decided to make the strike of the team
sters a final issue between the employ
ers and employed in San Francisco
This morning about a thousand drivers
win go to their places of work as usual
and viii be discharged. This is accord
ing to programme. BY nightfan every
large draying establishment in the city
will have its trucks in the barns. The
teamsters state that they will pass the
matter up to the employers and the
final decision will be made by them.
statement made BY a prominent
drayman was to the effect that the
Draymen's association had decided
upon the step about to be taken only
after long elaboration and with many
miSgiyingS, as such a step meant mon
etary loss. distress and dubious cOndi-
ton of affairs. the outcome of which
ters of the Brotherhood of Teamsters the
sentiment was that the matter had
passed out of the hands of the employ
ing draymen and that they had cast
their lot with the other merchants in
the town opposed to unions
Estimates vary as to the number of
men and the far-reaching effect of the
teamster tie-up for the matter has not
as yet reached the proportions of a
strike. There are over 1000 men driv-
ing teams that are connected with the
heAAAOAs Unions lHdL constitute LIE
team drivers executive council. Then
this body is affiliated with the Water
Front association which embraces men
that are more or less connected with or
dependent upon the teaming business.
This includes stevedores, porters, pack
ers, warehouse men, marine hremen
and engineers, and in affiliated branches
perhaps about 5000 more In the event
of a strike being ordered all these
would of necessity go out in sympathy.
There is likely to be some lively times
on the water front. Non-union men will
have to do the driving. In that event
the longshoremen will refuse to handle
the merchandise brought to the var
ious vessels by non-union drivers and
the coasting vessels will either tie up
or go away in ballast.
Should non-union longshoremen be
secured to handle the merchandise then
the sailors will go on strike and refuse
to work the ships. The outlook seems
to be for a general tie I'D.

Pollock was in that neck of the woods
spending a vacation and he discovered
the island was for sale. He bought it
and received a patent from the crown.
There are no inhabitants on the island
and not a house. The camping party
will take their tents with them and en-

Grain, Provisions, Cotton and Stocks. JI-
CORRESPONDENT Christie Grain and Stock
Co, Kansas City, Mo-
New York. July 22.-The stock market
last week established material gains in
spite Of the opening weakness and the re-
action at the close.
The recovery was clearly due to the Of
fetal announcement regarding the reor-
ganization of the board OF directors OF
the Northern Pacific Railway company.
This was an indication to the general
public that harmony has been restored
interests which unfortunately were at
loggerheads last year
The Importance of this sentiment, tire
some as it may seem to repeat the fact,
has been fully appreciated in speculative
operation is secured for the western rail-
roads, but that many personal anlmoSi-
ties have been buried and that changes
have taken place IN holdings OF stocks
which are Of the strongest supporting
character to prices
1t is true that stock market fluctuations
have not been absolutely determined by
what has taken place but certainly land
this is of the highest importancel there
sta bility of improvements.
1t is considered probable that the
changes in the Northern Pacific board
contemplated by the agreement Of last
Nav will be effected this week Many
Wen informed persons believe that more
nounced in the course of the next two OF
three weeks. Some Of these, it is in
ferred, relate TO the Union Pacific rail-
road that will probably tend to increase
the investment standing of that stock.
There are some points with regard to ale
finances of Union Pacific upon which en-
lightenment is really craved by the pub
lie These relate to the offsets in the way
in which the management of that great
property must have had in mind when,
by creating an increased charge of four
million dollars interest ahead OF the conn
pany's stock 1t lessened the superficial
attractiveness Of Union Pacific common.

ty For David Woodall's Death
The responsibility of the city in the
death of David WoodaI, the colored
man who was electrocuted while re-
pairing an electric light in Potwin is
being further investigated by A. B.

Woodall.
The tests OF the electric light plant

ployes of the light plant who were to
assist in the Investigations and Mr..
Anderson they did not meet and the ex-
animation was postponed
Il believe" said Mr.. Quinton this
morning, that the investigation will
result in the confirmation of the belief
that the wires and apparatus of the city
electric light plant is in a bad condi-
ton I have heard it expressed by a
number of experienced men that nearly
every wire running into the plant was
grounded If this is found to be the

Disaffection caused by banditti is
