Satisfactorily Explained.

NEW YORK, July 1.-The work Of rais-
ing the sunkeH Mohawk of the Starin
Line, which went down Saturday night
with 600 passengers aboard. just after
leaving Glen Island continued this
morning. The Merritt & Chapman
Wrecking Company. which has the con-
tract believes that it will soon be able 20
tow the vessel to a dry-dock on Staten
Island
Investigation has failed TO throw light
on the accident. Myndert Starin stated
that the buoys anchored by the Govern
ment, had been driven by storms from
their places, but thus far this statement
has not been borne out by the investiga-
tons of lighthouse board inspectors
When the vessel struck the rock it
sank an less than twenty minu -es. Only
her upperdeck. snokestack. and paddle
boxes remained above water So far the

sued Saturday by Mr. Shaffer, President
of the Amafgamated Association, and
ratified by the advisory board on Satur-
day
This marks the beginning Of the strug-
gle between union labor and the United
States Steel Company The battle could
not be averted- Men familiar with the
situation knew this weeks ago, when
both sides were predicting peace, as they
were aware of the fact that peace could
not come without the surrender of prin-
cirles either by the union or the trust
The majority of the United States Steel
Company's plants are operated by non
union men and when the AmaIgamated
Association demanded the recognition If
their union and the signing of their scale
for all of the plants, the much-taIked-of
harmonious relations Of the trust and the
union ended suddenly.
A compromise seems out of the ques-
ton and, unless one can be arranged. the

DEVICE TO SCARE WOLVES.
~s<a M w- W M Automatic Gun Recently Invented That Will Protect sheep from
 Natural Enemies.

Examiners in the patent office have learned by experience that it is a mistake to jump at conclusions re- garding the usefulness of inventions. X contrivance at which they were i'm ciined to rol<e- a good deal of fun. de signed to frighten wolves on western. prairies, was patented less than three months ago, and already it has come into considcra ole use in the sheep growing districts in that part of the country. says the Presby yteran Ban ner.
 The device is an automatic gun which gees off at regular intervals, soaring the wolves away from the Hooks. Ii -consiSt4y- of q sort of box which contains q clockWork attach mcnt with a small steel barrel pro jecting from one, end. A magazine, also with the box, is loaded with blank cartridges, which are fired by the clockworli once in ten minutes or so. By the help of a simple machan- ical attachment the intervals be- tween the discharges are made as long or as short as may be desired.
 Wolves do not attack sheep in the daytime, and the gun needs to be in operation only from sunset 10 sun rise It is the period of 1amhing that the focks are in danger, the fierce wolves raiding them and carrying off the lambkins. and hence the apparat- us described is intended to be em- ploycd exclusively during that sea son. IL may be that the wolf, which is g decidedly intelligent animal, may learn the deception after awhile and realize that the automatic gun has not man behind it. Tn Russia # has been found that wolves are afraid Of the humming of telegraph wires.

v ---s - s- Women In Holland

A great change has come over pub lie feeling in' Holland as to girls in the upper classes earning their own livelihood. The. prejudice against women working for livelihood has almost disappeared and even rich women sometimes choose q profes. sion. They number doctors, dentists, many=ot theAn first rate, photographs CTS, and gardeners. About 1000 girls hold posts as assistant chemists, some 5000 arc nurses, trained in the White--Cross homes, and on a par with the very best of their profess sion. A woman is curator of the natural history museum in Haarlem and another holds the same post at Utrecht, while third is head dis penser at n hospital in Amsterdam. The railway, post and telegraph off res are largely ssaved by women clerks, who altogether outnnmber the men.
