department of Washington univer-

the matter was not finally determined
until Monday.
Mr.. Ives, while holding his present
position with the university, was per-
mitted TO accept the position of direc-
tor OF the fine art department of the
Columbian exposition. In the latter
position he acquired reputation
for efficiency which has followed him.
1t was said of him at the time that
his executive ability in managing the
department was equal to his taste
on all matters pertaining to art.

CLAIM FILING HAS BEGUN.
The Last Act In the Opening of the
Indian Lands In Oklahoma
In Progress.

FL Reno, Okla, Aug. THE last act
In the opening of the Indian lands in
the Kiowa and Comanche reservations
began when the winners in last
weeks lottery were permitted TO file
on their claims. The filing began in
FL Reno for the III Reno district and
at Fort Sill for the Lawton land dis
trict.
At each place 1873 Of the lucky ones
were permitted TO file in the order
that their names were drawn from
the wheels. The fling at the rate of
$50 will continue daily until the en-
tire 10000 claims have been disposed
of. 1t is estimated that at least o.
900 or 5000 claims drawn at the lot
terry will never be fled on. There will
undoubtedly be a lively scramble for
them by the thousands of people who
did not win In the lottery.
The auction xle, by the federal
government, of town lots at Andarko,
Hobart and Lawton also began. At
each place thousands of people have
waited for days the opportunity to
purchase lots and begin business.

PRELIMINARY TO THE BATTLE


Pittsburgh, Pa, Aug. 7.-After
weeks of preliminary skirmishing, at
last the great battle between the 81
gantic Steel trust and the thousands
of men marshaling under the banners
of the Amalgamated Association OF
Iron, Steel and Tin Workers, is fairly
on. The talked of general strike
order was issued by President Shat
fer last evening, to take effect after
the last turn of the mills on August
10. What the result will be no man
can foretell, but judging by the eN-
pressed determination of both parties
to the controversy, the battle will be
waged to the very last ditch. Much
money will be lost, thousands on thou
sands of men will be idle, great suf-
fering is looked for and even blood
shed and death are possible and
feared.
The strike call includes practically
all Amalgamated men in the United
States Steel corporations employ not
now on strike. 1t was issued from the
AInulRdHutSu uooOChhtiOh hCuAHuoA
tiers and mailed to all Amalgamated
lodge officials, who are expected to
call their men into the strike. The
text Of the call follows:
"Brethren-The officials of the Unit
ed States Steel trust have refused to
recognize as union men those who are
now striving for the right to organ
ize. The executive board has author.
lied me to issue call upon all Anal
gamated and other union men in

row calls you to help in this hour of
need. Unless the trouble is settled
en- or before Saturday, August 20,

last turn is made on that day.
Brethren, this is the call to pre-
serve our organization. We trust you
and need you. Come and help us, and
may right come to II just cause.

TIE CITIZENS TAKE A HAND.
Eighteen Leaders of the Strike in
Tampa Spirited Away to He
turn No More.

Tampa, fla, Aug. 6.-The strike sit
uation tonight is one of bewilder-
ment on the part of the strikers, and
immovable determination on the part
of the citizens. No word has been re-
ceived from or about the Resistencia
leaders who were deported last night,
and the vigilantes are sworn to secre-
cy, further than they admit the men
will never return to Tampa. The ex-
act number of the men deported is
not yet known, but every prominent
leader of the strike is missing. 1t is
said that others are marked and that
deportation may take place at any
moment.
The kidnapping last night had been
well planned for days. A great open
air meeting had been arranged, to
which all the Resistencia leaders had
been invited, the purpose being to
catch them all in bunch. They were
all present. Music had been provided
and the streets were lined with thou
sands of people. Shortly before the
posse Of citizens reached the place the
news reached the strike leaders and
they quickly dispersed. The crowd
was not daunted, and commenced q
man-to-man search through the
streets, and snatched the men from
the crowds. They were placed in car
riages that had been provided between
heavily armed guards and driven
away.
The captured leaders were at once
driven to the county Jail, where they
remained on the outside under guard
for u few minutes. Then they disap-
peared and have not been seen or
heard of since. Various rumors as to
their disposition have been circulated
in the city to-day, it being most gen
orally reported that they were taken
into the gulf in an unknown and mys-
FERROUS vessel. All of the deported
strike leaders were Spaniards and
Cubans. The boldness of the whole af-
fair and the accomplishment of the
deportation without bloodshed is one
Of the remarkable features.

THE STRIKE MUST CEASE.
vaErant Laws viii be Enforced
Against All Refusing to Work.

Tampa, Fla, Aug. 7.--Altogether is
leaders OF the Rcsistencia Cigarmak-
ers' union have been seized and spirit
ed away by the committee of citizens
who have taken this means to stop the
strike troubles.
1t is impossible to learn what be-
comes Of these men, many of whom
have been prominent here in labor cir
cles. Those to whom they were in
trusted refuse to say what disposition
has been made of them. After this
vagrant laws are to be enforced
against those who refuse to work.
