In an editorial article regarding the
formation of great Industrial combina-
tons. the Church Standard says: 1T is
curious TO see how the socialistic ten
dency is being swept on by individual
will; but the social demand is growing
quite as rapidly as corporate power
and in the end, society will always be
found mightier than the greatest OF its
parts. Yet in human hands power is a
perilous possession. Let US hope that
the newborn socialism of corporations
may be wisely used. If it shall be so, it
may guide the modern world into many
a good thing in the coming century; if
rot it may collapse as suddenly as it has
risen"

STARVING RUSSIANS
Hungry in Many Provinces Be-
cause the Crops Failed.
Destitution is Said To Re Wide
spread Over the Southern
Part of the Country.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 15.-The day on
which the first fruits of the harvest were
blessed in the churches, which was
celebrated throughout Russia this week.
must have been a day of mourning in
many provinces. The outlook has grown
worse every week during the last fo1r
weeks. Even vegetables, including
potatoes, have been largely burned by
the scorching heat in some districts
The approaching winter will be one of
the gloomiest Russia has ever seen.
The government has already begun
preparations for the feeding of the popu-
latlon IN districts where starvation is
threatening. By a law adopted some
time ago, the Zemstvos, or district
assemblies, are relieved from RESPONSE
bllIty in the matter, the famine relief
funds being now turned over to the
central government. Agents of the
ministry of the interior are engaged in
buying grain, though the Russian press
Is forbidden to mention the matter
The precise object Of this prohibition is
difficult to divine. 1t cannot be DOS
slble that the government thinks the
gram spectators can be taken unawares
and the secrecy with which the prices
and the localities of purchases are in
vested can hardly be conducive to econ
OmY
The latest trustworthy reports show
the crop conditions about August |. /.
Excessive heat and ardity prevailed
during the preceding six weeks. This
cut off the development of the grain and
unduly hastened maturity Sufficient
rainfall was had only in the western and
Baltic provinces. The winter grains
naturally suffered comparatively little
from the weather, and the harvest of
winter grain will be short in the PROV
inces OF Keiff, PodoIia, Bessarabio and
hhersOn, in some portions of the black
earth districts, particularly the PROV
lnces OF ChernigOff, POltava, VOlhynia,
kOursk, in the provinces of Minsk,
GrodnO, kOvOnO, Niebsh and Smoloensk,
in portions OF the Baltic territory. in
Finland and in a portion OF the central
region.
In the remaining portions of the en-
pre- the winter grains will shade off from
below medium to very bad, and the Off
cial report adds that "the condition OF
spring grains is below that of winter
grains" The harvest Of spring grains
Will be satisfactory in the southwest. the
Vlstula provinces and portions of the
northwest. 1t is bad throughout the
immense southwestern territory between
the Dneiper and the UraI. Percentage

NOT APOLOGIZE TO GERMANS.
Doubtful if Chinese Emperor Will
Beg Pardon.

Berlin, Sept. LIT is now very doubt
ful, according to a dispatch to the
LOkal Anzeiger from Basel, Switzerland,
whether Prince Chun will come to Ber-
lin to make formal apology for the
murder OF Baron Won Ketteler. Mem
bers OF the expiatQry mission say:
Under present conditions we can
never go to Berlin. We would rather
die than accept them" 1t appears that
they object particularly to Prince Chun's
attendants prOstrating themselves be-
fore Emperor William inasmuch as this
is a special honor reserved for the
emperor OF China and would involve a
recognition of the kaiser's equality. The
following confirmation is given regard
ing Prince Chun's speech to the kaiser.
Prince Chun intended to say.
1.-The Chinese government regrets
that Baron Won Ketteler was killed .
but the German government dictated
the following form:
1.-The Chinese government begs pardon
for the murder of the German minister,
Baron Won Ketteler."
The Chinese in Basel are trying to
give the case International prominence
by emphasizing the fact that one OF the
dignitaries selected for prostration was
made a baronet by Queen Victoria,
while another has the cross of the legion
of honor,

Steel Magnates Are Winning.

Pittsburg, Sept. 3.-It was believed
that yesterdays cre,litable labor demon
stratiOn would give impetus to the steel
strikers cause and strengthen them in
their great fight, but the Developments
today were all favorable to the masters.
Thirty-twO new wOrkmen from Phila-
delphia, all said to be skilled, entered
the Star works without molestation:125
machinists returned to work in the

plants and II imported men went to
work at the steel hoop mill at Monessen.
At Duquesne no further efforts we're
made to get the men out and the works
were in full operation. Painters and
Lindsay & McCutcheOn's mills were run
ming with increased forces. 1t is stated
at McKeesport that the Demmler Tin
plate works will be started within 48
hours with its old employees. Three
mills were put on the night turn at the
Clark plant last night The other six
mills are operating in full in daytime. 1t
is claimed by the managers that they
have had many applications from
former employees for work, but had re-
fused them all, as the plant is now fully

Caught On a Crossing.

Wenatchee, Wash. Sept. "a fearful
accident occurred here today, resulting
in one killed and two injured. A delivery
cart belonging to the Wenatchee Trad
ing company was on it's way from the
steamboat landing and contained Mr..
Gle, who was driving, and two boys,
one named William Foley. The cart
was following a bus and reached the
railway crossing just as the Great North
ern train, No, 3, was coming into town.
The bus drove across in front of the
train, but the delivery horse reared and
jumped against the train, being caught
between the tender and baggage car.
The occupants OF the cart we're hurled
against the train with fearful force and
the Foley boy was thrown 40 feet and
instantly killed. The other boy is per-
haps fatally wounded. Gile, the driver,
was hurt only slightly, being cut and
bruised. The horse was killed. The
families of the boys are broken hearted
over the accident. 1t is not understood
how the driver of the cart could have
made the mistake of trying to cross
ahead of the train, as the bus ahead of
the cart had a narrow escape, missing
the train by few feet only.

to produce results in the near future.
The conference between the committee
from Milwaukee, and the amalgamated
officials, the continued Efforts of Presi-

the impeachment of President Shaffer;
the march of the strikers of McKeesport

approaching, and that an important

Still More Counterfeiting.

The Secret Service has unearthed an
other band of cOunterfeiters and secured
a large quantity Of bogus bills, which
are so cleverly executed that the aver
age person would never suspect them Of
being spurious. Things OF great value
are always selected by counterfeiters for
imitation, notably the celebrated Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, which has
many imitatOrs but no equals for indi-
gestion, dyspepsia, constipation, nerv-
business and general debility. The
Bitters sets things right in the stomach,
and when the stomach is in good order,
it makes good blood and plenty OF it.
In this manner the Bitters get at the
seat of strength and vitality, and re-
store vigor to the weak and debilitated.

Nearly 30 plow manufacturers of the

After the meeting it was announced
that the proposed consolidation was
practically a sure thing from present
prospects, and that about $4,000, 900
would be represented in the Organiza-
ton when it should be completed. The
recent rise OF 10 per cent in the price of
plOws and the proposed consolidation is
the result, the manufacturers say, of an

material and ruinOus credit system
that has prevailed for years.
