Latest Reports Indicate He Is Very Much

GEN. uRlBE-uRlBE is NOT DEAD

New York. Aug. 19-The trouble III
ehezueIa and Colombia, it Is under
stood from South Americans here, is d
conflict in which the liberals of both
countries have united against the cleri
Gals. According to liberal Colompians
aere the government of President Cas-
tro of Venezuela is LIBERAL while that of
colombia is clerical. Raul PareZ, sec
rotary of the liberal diplomatic agency
Of Colombia, said:
The Colombian and Venezuelan cler-
,acals organized an invasion against the
liberal Venezuelan government, and on
the other side the Venezuelan and Co
lombian liberals made common cause
and prepared themselves to meet the
invaders at the frontier. General Tribe
Tribe is q the head of the Colombian
element OF that army. Probably he was
he commanding general who obtained
the two victories of July 20 and Au-
gust 8.
Venezuela has no reason to declare
War against Colombia because the cler-
ical invasion has been completely de-
teated and before two months elapses
the liberal party will be in power in
colombia. On the othe" hand. the cler
'cal government Of Colombia is not in a
position to declare war against Vene-
nzuela.''
Two communications have been re-
reived from General Tribe Tribe by DR..
A. j. Restrepo, representing the liberal
party in this country. These not only
overcome all doubt as to whether Gem
7eral Tribe Tribe is alive, but convey
the further news that he Is in the thick
of the conflict. One was letter dated
August l at San Cristobal, Venezuela,
and the other cable dispatch dated
August TO-
The second message said: complete
victory over invaders under General
Gonzales Valencia" This means that
Tribe Tribe, in charge of Venezuelan
and Colombian liberal forces repealed
the Colombian clericals who We're in

GAINS by BOTH SIDES.
Amnlgnmated and Steel Trust Break
About Even Today.

Pittsburg, Aug. 16.--Both sides made
material gains today in the great
strike being Waged against the United
States Steel corporation, by the Anal
gamated association. The remaining
force at the plant of the National Tube
works at McKeesport joined the strik-
ers and that great plant is now prac-
tlcally silent. The strikers also made
some gains among the men at the
lower Union mill Of the Carnegie COM
pany in Pittsburg. but there is direct
conflict in the claims made by each
side as to the exact conditions Of that
plant. The strikers say they will force
1t to close down, while the managers
insist they have not been hurt and the
plant will be kept moving.
The material gains of the manufac-
turers were at the Painters mill in this
city and the Crescent mill Of the
American Tin Plate company in Cleye
land. At the former surprise was
sprung on the strikers and the two
mills, one with a crew Of old employees
who struck on the first order. were
going before it was known any such
move was contemplated. 1t is said an
other crew will be put on shortly and
the managers assert many of their old
men will come back. There was no
said the old employees will not do picket
duty for fear Of being blacklisted in
the future.
American Tin Plate officials say they
have half the mills in the Crescent
plant moving. They gave the repre-
sentatives Of the Associated Press the
following official statement today:
las a result Of the attempt by the
American Tin Plate company to start
it's Crescent works at Cleveland in
twenty-four hours half the mills were
put in successful operation, manned
largely by former worknen who have
seeded from the Amalgamated asso-

having succeeded, the company will in

Republican Candidates on State Ticket
Are Visited by Inquisitive Committees.
Des Moines, Ia, Aug. 1.-THE fact
has been made known that committee
called on Mr.. Cummins before the con-
vention at Cedar Rapids and tried to
get from him an expression in regard
to his attitude toward the amendments
l., the mulct law proposed by Abrams,
OF the anti-saloon league and others,
but Mr. Cummins declined to commit
himself in favor of the change or any
changes.
1t was then determined in case of
h,G nominate that these same men
would accuse Cummins of having
planned to recommend to the legisla-
ture changes in the mulct law that
would be offensive to the radical pro-
hibitionists. Several attempts have
been made to get him to commit him.
self IN advance on possible legislation
which the legislature may pass. 1t is
claimed that the next legislature is sure
to make notifications of the law mora
favorable to the liquor sellers and tho
opponents of Mr.. Cummins desire that
he shall say now whether he will APP
prove or veto the bills. Mr.. Cummins
and his friends will not do anything of
the sort. The republican campaign
will be fought on the platform and not
otherwise.
Since the convention an effort has
been made to draw John Herriott, can
didate for lieutenant governor, into the
same trap, but Mr.. Herriott quietly
told the committee that he was not
submitting to interviews at this time.
Mr.. Herriott, as presiding officer Of the
senate, Will name the senate commit
tees which will have to do With the leg
islation of the next session. From his
place in the chair he will be able to
WELD a more powerful influence on leg
lslation than any other of the nominees
on the state ticket-but Mr. Herriotts
views are we'll known and he does not
regard 1t as necessary at this time to
enter on a discussion of a subject long
since closed. 1t Is presumed that other
candidates on the state ticket have
been approached by the committees
and that the legislative candidates will
all be subjected to rigid examination.

MAY BE TURBINE LINERS,
London Wonders About the New 1-2
Day Line From I1erehayen.

London, Aug. 19.-The statement
made by Lord James of Hereford in the
house of lords foreshadowing a new
fast line of steamers between Bere-
haven, County Cork, and America, has
already given rise to much discussion
and speculation as to the precise nature
of the project.
Lord James said the steamers would
be built in this country, and the omis-
sion of the words ''and owned" after
built lends color to the idea that the
new line will be run by an American
company. AS the steamers are to ac-
complish the voyage in four and halt
days it is believed they will be worked
on the turbine principle.
