STRIKE CONFERENCE FAILS

Continued from First Page)
 all railroad men present had been ask ed to participate in the sympathetic strike but what effect this request will have cannot be determined until this morning. The men who attended the meeting were very on-communicative but at it's close it was announced that there was no prospect of a settlement in sight and that the men already out would not go back to work to-day nor until the differences at Harlem River had been settled. One of the men who acted as spokesman said that matters stood just as they did yesterday morn ing when the swltchmen and brakemen went out. The meeting last about an hour and adjourned to no particular time, the calling of the next meeting being left to a committee of which T. J. Mohan, brakeman, was elected chairman.
 Yesterday afternoon a meeting of the local trainmens brotherhood was held at the Odd Fellows building and after the meeting it was reported on the streets that the passenger brakemen would be called out on strike. This was denied last night and it was said that no steps had been taken towards call ing out the passenger train brakemen except to ask that all trainmen and em- ployes of the road join in a sympa- thetic strike. this including passenger brakemen as well as others. There was talk last night that engineers and fire men would be asked to go out but this appeared to be mere rumor and no verif1cation could be secured from an authoritative source, All the strikers talked with appeared to be firm in their determination to stay out at least until the Harlem River dispute was settled. Among other grievances which the brakemen have is this: They say that they are not allowed extra pay except for time over twelve hours and that then the overtime must be more than half an hour or they are not paid for it. They want pay for all overtime over ten hours. This, 1t Is understood,

CoNspiRACY AGAINST CANADA.
The Alleged Plot to Overthrow Do
 minfon Rule i'm the Northwest.


 hinton Rule in the Northwest. Seattle. Wash, Nov. 21-The Evening
 Times of Seattle publishes an account to-day which is offered as confirmation of the story published in the San Francisco Call to the effect that a con- spiracy had been planned covering the entire northwest territory for the over throw of the Canadian rule and the es- tablishment of an independent repub- lie.
 The Times in it's article lays great stress on the story obtained from Fred Clark, formerly a stage driver in this city but who has been in the Yukon for some time and admits knowledge of the Order of the Midnight Sun, which is supposed to have been organ ized for the sole purpose of the rebel lion.
 It is claimed that the order was orig inally organized in strict secrecy in Dawson in 1900 and that from there it spread along the Yukon, with branches as far as Circle City in the one direc- ton and Skagway and Atlin in the other direction. It is claimed that men came to Seattle in the interests of the uprising and solicited support in the way of financial contributions. The Times says that no arms were bought. The total membership of the Order of the Midnight Sun is placed at 1,500, al though the members confidently ex- pected outside assistance which would bring the total of the army of insurrec- tion up to almost 5000.
 The Times says that in the early days of the organization a circular was is- sued and secretly distributed to disaf- fected miners on the upper Yukon in which nineteen different clauses were given as being reasons for an uprising. These dealt with defective mining laws, corruption of officials, royalties, liquor traffic and gambling, delays in the court, British Columbia alien act duties, miners and loggers' licenses, recording fees and boundary disputes.
 A similar circular was handed to these men at Skagway in which they were solicited for aid to support the enterprise. For time Clark made his headquarters at the latter place, it is said, conducting a junta of the order
 The plotters, according to the Times, anticipated no trouble in getting enough men together to overpower the mounted police at different towns of the interior. The raid was to be started on the bor- der, and as fast as a town was over powered a revolutionary government was to be installed. Local officials were to be seized and held as hostages
 The raid was to be started imme- diately after the close of navigation and the telegraph lines. to Dawson were to be cut in a dozen different places. The leaders are said to have believed that the Canadian government would be months in getting in men and that at last it would be compelled to make terms with the insurgents before they laid down their arms
 The conspiracy is said to be dead ow- ing to the publication of it's secrets.

 Meriden, Nov. 21.-The fourteen switchmen in the local yard of the New York, New Haven and Hartford rail road went on strike at 1 o'clock this af- ternoon. The manufacturers report that if the strike is not settled within week they will be compelled to close. This will throw over five thousand hands out. They had meeting tonight and appointed committee to wait upon the railroad officials. Provision supplies are low, and it is feared that the in- creased cost in getting supplies here by other routes will cause the prices to go up.
 Middletown, Nov. 21.-Freight ship ments here are tied up on account of the railroad strike. Nothing was re- ceived from points south this morning.

The Presidents Message.

President Roosevelt's message to
Congress is a characteristic docu-
ment, and it strikes popular cord.
The fact that it receives well-nigh
universal acceptance and commend
alton from all conservative men at
home and the great newspapers OF
Europe, Mexico and South America,
distinguishes it as a remarkable pro-
duction. The reader is Immediately
impressed with the style, for it is
written by scholar, versed in the
moods of words and their sentential
potency. The style is terse, simple,
vigorous, smooth, with the absence
of pomposity, spread-eagleism, -four
ish or ponderous words. The sem
fences express thoughts worthy of
the man, the statesman, the presi-
dent of great nation. The mes
sage is moderate in tone and shows
the masterful handling of profound
questions, questions that compre-
bend the best thought of the nation.
1t is redundant in recommendations
of a practical character, illustrating
the suggestive and resourceful quail
ties of the author, but is deliberative-
ly conservative and thoroughly dis
Greet. 1t presents a dispassionate,
consistent and reassuring view of
our national concerns. 1t is I'M
equivocally American, but con-
ventionally courteous toward other
governments. 1t shows the grasp
of great statesman, the polish Of a
man of letters, and the business
sagacity of the man of affairs. 1t is
strenuously expressive of the great
impulse of the country in patriotic
utterance. 1t should be generally
read for it is full of "meat;" read be-
cause the questions concern the
people intimately; read because it is
fine piece of literature; read be-
cause it comprehends affairs with
which all should be familiar. The
tribute to Mckinley and the part
discussing anarchy are especially
fine. No better or more profitable
lesson could be given for study Of
students of the more advanced classes
in schools than this message of the
President of the United States to
the 57th Congress.

There seems to be but little diff
ference between the two great po-
litical parties on national questions.
The financial question is settled.
An isthmian canal is advocated by
both parties, as is also Pacific
cable. Trusts must be controlled by
law is the sentiment of all. Anarchy
must be suppressed IS common de-
mand. The Philippines must be
pacified is a general expression.
"Freer trade" is desired by the
Democrats and they strongly oppose
the ship subsidy bill. In this latter
contention they have the support of
many Republicans.

SEIE-plSCIPLINE.

The method of maintaining dis
ciplne in the state prison at Folsom.
Cal, is declared to be very successful.
There are no dungeons or dark cells,
and none of the old modes of punish
ment are recognized in this institu-
ton. When new prisoner is re-
ceived he is informed that they have
three different bills of fare in the
prison. and that it is optional with
each man as to how well he lives. II
he is industrious, orderly, well-be-
haved and in all things conforms
strictly to the rules of the prison. he
is served with excellent food, nicely
cooked. He can have chops, steaks.
eggs, tea and coffee. milk and white
bread. If he is only fairly well-be-
haved and does not do his allotted
task properly, is inclined to growl and
grumble at the regulations of the In
stitution he is given ordinary prison
fare, mush and molasses, soup and
corn bread; and If he is ugly and in
subordinate he is permitted to feast on
unlimited quantities of cold water and
a rather small allowance of bread.
There is said to be an intense rivalry
among the convicts to enter the first
class, and once there it is very seldom,
that one of them has to be sent back
to a lower class.-Detroit Free Press.

KIDNAP THEIR WIVES.

Time has wrought but few changes
in the manners and customs of the
people of the Caucasus, and modern
ways are making but slow progress
One of the relics of the good OIL, times
to which the Caucasians especially
cling is the custom of kidnapping the
women whom they desire to make
their wives. Recently case of this
kind resulted in a tragic end. A PROM
inent inhabitant of the little Caucasian
town of Katuhagan. named Ismail Ogll
Ok tried to kidnap the sister OF his
best friends wife while his friend wos
absent from home. The girl resisted
his attempt to carry her off. aided by
her married sister The baffled lover
drew his sword and inflicted dangerous
wounds on both the ladies'. At this
moment his friend returned and. en-
ragged at finding what had occurred,
killed Ismail on the spot. Then he
cut off Ismails head and carried 1t
round to show the neighbors what
fearful revenge he had taken. In the
same district a young noblemau de-
sired to marry the daughter OF Il
neighboring land owner. and invited
the girl with her parents to grand
ball given at his castle. During tho
evening he found an opportunity of
decoying the girl into secluded part
of the house. where she was seized by
his men and placed in carriage. The
prince joined her and in spite of the
girls entreaties started out to drive
to a place where they could be mar
ried without much delay. The girls

PROHIBITION WINS IN CANADA.

The legal fight which liquor men
have fought for the past three years
against Manitoba's prohibition laws
has ended in victory for prohibition.
Three years ago the Manitoba legisla-
ture passed a prohibitory law which
forbade the sale or gift of liquor from
one party to another. The liquor mer
held that this was ultra wires, as such
laws should only be passed by the do
minion parliament. Pending the legal
fight all temperance legislation has
been at standstill. The dominant
party in every province and territory
except Quebec and British Columbia is
pledged tc prohibition if the Manitoba
acts were sustained. The other day

Josef Hofmann, the young pianist
who has lately been attracting unusual
attention from the musical critics, is
now in his early twenties and at the
critical point in his career. Thirteen
years ago. Josef, then little boy or
wonderfully sweet disposition, who
could not speak a word of English.
set the music loving public of America
on fire with his marvellous genius for
playing on the pianoforte. He was
prodigy with the promise of becoming
Rubenstein, and his tour through
the United States was something OF
succession of triumphs. Emotional
men and women who heard him per-
form wept with the joy of it, and
great things were predicted for his
future. Mr.. Hofmann since that time
has learned many things beside music.
He now speaks fluently in half dozen
languages, among them English,
French. German and Polish. He has
developed rich. deep voice, with a
touch of the bass in it. His hobby
is mechanical invention, and not un-
naturally his favorite novelist is
Jules Verne.
