ation-J. p. Morgan says settlemeft
Must Come by Men Going to Work.

PITTSBURG. August 27.--It is learn
ed late tonight that President 4. j.
Shaffer has sent out letters TO all MEM
bers OF the Executive Committee of the
Amalgamated Association, inviting
their approval OF the peace plan agreed
upon last SATURDAY by the representa-
tives of the National Civic Federation
and the Amalgamated Association
headquarters officials. The plan pro-
poses:
First. That the New York offer Of
July 9th made by MessrB. Schwab
and Morgan be accepted. This pro-
vides that the tin-plate mills resume
under the scale signed for the year
beginning July IsI; that the hoop
company sign for all mills signed for

arranged, but not signed, for Painters,
Lindsay and McCutcheon, and the
Clark mill, leaving recognition of the
Union open.
Third That the United States Steel
CORPORATION formally declare its atti-
tude toward organized labor, this

President Shaffer assented to these
propositions and is now awaiting the
result of a vote by mail. If approved

deavor to secure an audience with tine
Steel Corporation officials in New York
city.
NEW YORK, August 27.-J. Pierpont

it was said his return had nothing to dc
with the steel strike or its settlement
The officials of the United States Steel
Corporation made the following state
ment: That reports that there are ne
gOtiations for a settlement of the stee
strike are erroneous. The United States
Steel Corporation has received no pro
posals for the settlement and his made
cent of the deseaced jurist, and that
to work, and many others are desirous
of resuming their places. The strike
can only be settled by the return of tine
men to their places"

STACKABLE REVERSED.

The Board of General Appraisers has
just rendered a decision reversing Col
Iector Stackable. The local collector
made a ruling some time ago that. the
mixture called Arabic" used for
painting roofs. should be placed under
the classification of paint, which re-
quired the payment of a high rate of
duty. An appeal was taken from this
ruling and the appraisers have Just de-
cided against the Collector by placing
the mixture in an entirely different
classification on which the duty will not
be so great. This decision is most
sweeping in effect and overrules the
local collector on every point, and is
one of most important made against
him.

HABEAs CORPUS BEFORE JUDGE
EsTBE.
Attorney General Cathcart Argues An
Afternoon-Federal Court Jurisdiction

II want to call your honor's attention
to the fact that this is an entirely new
and very n .OOrtant constitutional
question" said Attorney General
Cathcart this morning, in his argument
before United States Judge Estee in
the matter of the petition of Osaki
Mancichi for a writ OF habeas corpus.
The question here brought up did not
come before the United States Supreme
Court in the Insular cases just decided.
1t is a constitutional question OF the
greatest Importance here raised for
your honor's consideration, for the
first time and eventually. in all prob
ability. to be finally decided by the
court at Washington"
Cathcart occupied the whole morning
in the court discussing the question
of the judges jurisdiction in the case.
He held, from many decisions, that the
Federal courts have always declined
to review the proceedings of state and
territorial courts, except in cases
where extraordinary conditions, or on
some legal emergency, was shown.
Replying to an intimation of Estee
that the distance of Hawaii from the
higher court at Washington and the
lack of quick communication, might
constitute the unusual conditions that
would warrant federal courts interter-
ing. he argued that such was not the
case.
Cathcart very eXhaustively reviewed
a large number of decisions on the
question of the jurisdiction of the fede-
raj courts to review decisions of state
or territorial courts. By noon he had
finished this side of the question. THIS
afternoon he is arguing the question
that is to be considered If Estee taxes
Jurisdiction. of whether the conVlcuoh
of Osaki by nine jurors. or without an
indictment by a Grand Jury, after the
massage of the Newlands resolution
was legal. -
When Cathcart gets through the
LAWYERS will prepare briefs. and the
case will be submitted for decision.

TWO GREAT sWIMMERs.
Widemann and Leary in a Struggle fol
Victory.

SAN FRANCISCO. August 26.-The
special match swimming race between
II A. Widemann and Scott Leary to
settIe the still disputed question as to
the respective abilities of the two men,
will be swum next Sunday afternoon at
a local bathing establishment, where a
strafghtaway course Of seventy-hVe
yards may be obtained. W men
the men SWAN the seventy 'nVr-
yard race in the Olympic club tank
many believed that it should have been
called a draw, as the men were SO close
together that may believed Ihat IN sncn
cases a draw should have been deelar-
ed.
The 1OO-yard race resulted in the same
way, but Leary was called the winner
by four to six inches. Many of Wide
mann's friendE claim that they saw
Widemann in front, and never has there
been so much argument about SWIM
ming races. The outcome OF II all may
be several different events. AS Leary
showed positive Improvement in MS
races he may break several RECORDS
soon.
Widemann is without doubt the fin
est specimen of a swimmer ever seen IN
this city. But he is no longer as am
bilious as he was a few 5ears 26o,
whereas on the other hand tie youngeT
man, Leary, is full of ambition. HIS
wonderful work and great inproVsmeb
indicate that he may soon hold all OF
the worlds records for short distances
and he may be the swimmer that has
been looked for for so many years-rhe
one that will make the 100 yards in Less
than one minute.
The worlds record is held by ]. IL
Deerbyshire of England. He has made
10 yards in 1:01 2-5; while the Austra-
liam record is 1903 2-5, practically the
FRR0FH
1:O3h made by Leary last Friday even.
ing. 1t is believed that Leary woulf
have no trouble in breaking the wo"lc's
real 100 yard record, which is for
straightaway course in still water. The
English record for this is 1872 while flic
Australian is 1907. Leary Is the new
star in the swimming world, ana ne Il
just beginning to shine. His work IS al
the more wonderful as he has some
what crippled leg. The times made by
widemann and Leary viii stand, al
they were taken officially.
