New York, Aug. s.-Rev. George S.
Miner, who has for some time been at
the head of rhe private school system at
foochow, China, isin this city. He says
missionaries in China do not approve of
the honors paid Minister WI Ting Fang

quoted as saying of Minister WI: How
much he influenced the course of our
government I do not know, but Ameri-
cans in China think we made mistake
in Withdrawing our troops 80 soon. The
Chinese are at this moment buying war
material in vast quantities. They are
spending money III that way and plead
ing inability to pay the indemnities be-
cause of poverty. The mandarin class
IN China are untrustworthy. We ought
not to take their word. Chinese diplo-
macy is not to be counted upon and our
government makes a mistake when it

ternoon with many notable passengers
on board. AT $3.50 O'clock in the morning
fire started in the linen room in the

however, as the passengers were at
luncheon in the saloon. clouds of smoke
rolled in, causing them to retreat to the
promenade deck. The crew was again
called to the quarters, single line of
hose was attached to one of the fire
plugs. the plank floor of the linen room
was torn up and the smoldering fire was
thoroughly extinguished.
The linen had been previously re-
moved, so no great damage was done.
There are two theories as to the origin
of the fire. One is that the metal over

other is that the fire resulted from de-

STRIKE RAISES PRICES.
Higher Prices on Tin Plates and I'm
,portations HEAVY.

New York, Aug. s-The Journal Of
Commerce says: Labor trouble in the
steel industry are beginning to be are
fected in higher prices for some Of the
products most directly affected. The
price of tin plates has for some time
been at a considerable premium above
the American Tin late Company's nom
inal price of s4.30 per box.
Sales are now reported as high as 81 so
per box premium. A number of orders
for tin plate have been sent to Great
Britain. In this connection 1t is of sig
nificance that the steamer Exeter City,
just in from Swansea, brought $4,000
boxes of tin plate, the largest single i'm
portation for many years. This is chief
ly consigned to an order believed to be
for the American Tin Plate Company.
The London market for tin plates ad-
vanced from lag Cd to los Sd within a
week. A general advance Of 10 per cent
has also been announced In the prices Of
tinware and enameled wares.

screw touched the steel cords and broke
them. Dumont Immediately stopped the
motor and the balloon began to descend
On1ortunately the cover of the aerostat

followed. The balloon collapsed and fell
rapidly. Luckily the frame caught on
the coping of the building and the hsi-
loon remained suspended, Otherwise
Santos Dumont would have been killed.
The balloonist escaped without a
scratch, however. The explosion Of the
balloon attracted enormous crowds. The
reception of Dumont upon reaching the
street was most enthusiastic, many Ia
dies clinging to his neck and kissing him
repeatedly.
NJ. Deutsch. who offered prize Of
100000 francs for rounding Eimel tower
and return to the starting point within a
given period of time, was SO affected by
the danger Santos Dumont had passed
thru that he told him he would rather
present him with the prize at once than
see him kill himself with experiments,
but the ballonist replied he had rounded
the Eiffel tower in such short period Of
time that he considered the result too
satisfactory to permit relinquishment Of
his attempts in the future.

Butte, Mont, Aug. S.-Judge e. w.

charges have been made in connection
with his decision in the Minnie Healey
mining case. has left for an extended
trip to the east. He left late last ,>sslt,
and Mrs. Adah Bracket, the woman
who is alleged to have unduly influenced
his decision. went on the same train as
far as Livingston. where they stopped.
Mrs. Bracket left for a trip to the Ma

nounced at Livingston that he was go-
ing to Chicago, and from there would
visit his wife and children at Buffalo
Prairie, Ill. Enemies say he has left the
state for good, but his friends deny it.
There is little likelihood that Judge
Harvey will take any action to prAse-
cute his accusers. The only way the
charges will be met. it is said, will be
counter affidavits, which will be filed in
court in opposition to the motion for a
new trial.

Remember. before you agreed to any

you to help in this hour OF need.
Unless the trouble is settled on or be.
fore Saturday, Aug. 10, 1901, the mills
will close when the last turn is made on
that day.
Brethren, this is the call to preserve
our organization. We trust you and
need you. Come and help us and may
Eight come to just cause.
III. j. sHAFFER."
President Shaffer added this state-
ment:
"The call goes to the vice presidents
of the districts in where there are mills
owned and operated by the National
Steel, National Tube and Federal Steel
companies. as well as to the officials Of
the lodges in the mills.
No notice has been or is being sent
to the managers of the mills. We think
their notice has come from the other
side and that they have had warming Of
this ever since the Inauguration OF the
strike. That ought to be sufficient"
The order given above is expected to
swell the number OF idle men to over
100000 men at the end of the week.
President Shaffcr was asked II the call
was not intended to go to the union me n
IN the Carnegie Steel Company. He said
that he could answer no questions on
that score. The Amalgamated Associa-
ton has lodges in the Upper and Lower
Union mills of the Carnegie Steel Com
pany, and foothold in the Homestead,
Duquesne and Braddock mills, the great
hulwark of non-unionism.
In conformity to statements that have
been made by President Shaffer before,
these men will be expected to join the
s.rik, as will all Amalgamatd men and
sympathizers in all plants of the United
State Steel Corporation. The other COM
uanies of the steel corporation not men
toned by the Amalgamated president.
and whose operations the association
will seek to hamper, are the American
Steel and Wire Company and the Amer
lean Bridge Company. In the wire COM
.pany the Amalgamated Association has
plant and the Joliet rod mill plant Of.
The company. The former is now idle.
In the plants of the American Bridge
Company there is no organization Of tie
men. The outside men handling and,
erecting the work OF the American
bridge Company are organized as the
International Association Of Bridge and
Structural Iron Workers. They are no.
affiliated with the American Federation
of Labor.
The attitude OF the federation remains
uncertain. and the president OF the
Amalgamated Association is unwilling
tc discuss it, saltho support has been
proffered by the officials Of the fedora
stion. This has been without the com
certed action of the federation executive
hoard. Many affiliated bodies of the
federation have annual or long term
contracts with their employers, and be-
yond financial and moral support it is
nard to tell how far the federation
may go.

there is likelihood that they will quit
the city in a body or return to work
within a short time. They adopted sew
eral different plans yesterday. but each

strikers tried to secure attorneys at
Key West and New York to come here
and take up their cases. but without
success. The leaders. however. are not
