The United States, as shown by the census statistics, is growing twice as fast in pop ulation as Canada, which means that the gap between the two countries is broadening rapidly.
 These influences are bound to have an effect on Canada in the direction of annexation. The few persons whom the Canadian papers now find in their region favorable to political union with this country will steadily in crease. Some day they will be in the majority. Canada is gra- vitating into union with the Uni ted States just as surely as Cuba is, though the annexation in the Canadian case is not likely to come so sooneas in the other in- stance. This is a law of political

monia.

Judge Clinton n. Sterry, the able
counsellor OF the Santa Fe Pacific, is
reported seriously i'll at the California
hospital, Los Angeles.
The Los Angeles Express Of Au'
gust 8, in an article ON his Illness,
SAYS:
Judge Clinton n. Sterry is very i'll
at the California hospital A consul
tation of physicians has been held and
It IL believed that he Is threatened
with pneumonia.
Judge Sterry left about one week
ago for San Francisco, where he was
to be the leading counsel for the Santa
Fe company in the case brought by
the oil men of bakersfield district to
have the freight rates In and out Of
that section reduced. The case Is
now on trial before the railroad com
mlssiOners in San Francisco.
Judge Sterry returned home yester-
day very i'll, goiLS direct to Terminal
island, where his family Is passing
the summer. He was coughing and
breathing heavily when assisted to
his summer home at the island and
medical aid was ut once called. The
case seems to have assumed a serious
aspect and the doctors who consulted
about the matter spoke gravely re-
garding the possible development of
pneumonia. II was thought best ia
remove the Judge to Los Angeles as
soon as possible and for that purpose
a special train was sent down over
the Salt Lake road about $3.50 O'Clock
last evening.
The sick man vas accompanied Ia
Los Angeles by Mrs. Sterry, Dr. Fer

taken directly TO the California hospi
tai.

case and he regards the judges IN

is likely 10 be very critical. At noon
there was no perceptible improvement

Pittsburg, Aug. THE effect of

Is being watched with interest. II Is
generally Understood that the Car.

United States steel corporation to
keep the strike from closing down its
business. The Ilants are extensive,
the men thoroughly non-union and its
products so varied and of such ma.
ture that they can be but little affect
ed by the refusal of union men of
other trades to handle them. The or

Duquesne. BraddDCk and the upper
and lower mills In this city and the
Amalgamated people claim to have
made many converts in these non
union strongholds. Since the strike
of 1892 three unsuccessful attempts
have been made To- organize the Home
stead works. A mass meeting of the
workmen Of the upper and lower mills
will be held tomorrow night, when
President Shaffer will address the men
and endeavor to induce them to join
the association.
A rumor was current today that an
effort will be made to keep some OF
the workers from striking by Offering
them an advance In wages. In reply
to a question whether he thought the
men employed by the Federal Steel
company would come out, President
Shaffer said: That we leave To the
men. They have no scale that can
hold them from their obligations To
the Amalgamated association. They
have no scale that can he transferred
