PRAYER IN MACHINIsTs STRIKE
'Woikmen Asked God to Help Them
Before They Presented Demands.

b1 Chicago May 24.-The efficacy of
prayer in securing a reduction of hours
of labor and increased pay has been test
ed by the employees of the Troy Laundry
Company. The agitation for shorter
workday reached the machinists there.
Although few Of them are members of
the union the foreman of the Shop Com
mttee is the Rev. c. Ii. Doolittle of the
Peoples Full Gospel Mission, who. be-
ing a practical machinist, works at his
trade at intervals.
When the men met to consider the de-
mands. Mr.. Doolittle opened the meet
ing with prayer, in which the l5O en-
ploycs joined.
A committee was selected to wait on
the manager and present the demand for
a nine-hour day and Q per cent! increase
in wages. The committee received an
audience, but the company said that
conditions did not warrant such large
Increase in wages. A counter proposi.
ton was made. Offering 8 per ad.

Chief Engineer Bond stated that Sho-
man was not employed by the Water
Department but by the Snow Pump
Company.
He also said that Mr.. Shoman was not
machlnst but an erecting engineer,
and was employed by the year by the
Snow Company to erect pumps.
Shoman also told the committee of ma
chlniSls that he was an engineer, but
the Buffalo union intimated that he was
n machinist. Local machinists claim that
at any rate it is bad job and that
much better one could be done in this
city.

Frank James Beaten.

Jefferson City, Mo-, Jan. 3.-Frank
James, brother Of Jesse James, the noted
bandit, has lost in his fight for the door
keepership of the Missouri house Of rep
resen natives. No man at the capital has,
it is said, worked harder than he for an
appointment. James personally applied
TO the different members of the legisla-
ture to give him recognition for the ben
eft of future generations of his family.
The decision was reached in the Dem
ocratIc caucus after an night session.
James name was presented by Judge
j, T. Hawkins, a venerable member, who
pleaded eloquently for the candidate.
On the first ballot James received but
fifteen votes. On the second ballot
James withdrew his lame, "thanking
from the bottom of his heart" those who
had given him support.
James surrendered to Governor Crit
tenden years ago. after his brother Jesse
had been killed by Bob Ford. and ever
since has lived an upright life.

KITCHENER TALKS PEACE.
Meets Committee of Burshers and
Assures Them Forgiveness If
They Will Come to Terms.

London, Jan. 3-The censorship has
just permitted news of the following
peace tentatives to emanate from Pre-
toria:
about the middle OF Decem ber
number of prominent burghers who had
had submitted and were living in the
Pretoria district formed peace commit
toe, which included prominent former
members Of the Volksraad. The comit-
tee resolved to attempt negotiations, and
accordingly, in response to suggestion,
Lord Kitchener attended meeting Of
the committee on December 21 and ad-
dressed the meeting.
"He said he was glad to meet a comit
tee desirous OF bringing the war to an
end, and he assured them that they
could rely upon his assistance in every
way calculated to further that object.
he proceeded to point out what he thinks
tho folly of a continuance OF guerilla
warfare. since the British government
would never permit the re establishment
OF tn0 bOer government.
"Mr Chamberlain's statements in par
lament, Kitchener contendeL, clearly
showed that there was no wish to op-
press the burghers. On the contrary,
the British proposals foreshadowed an
enlightened government in which the
burghers would have prominent share.
ensuring the rights OF property and the
ancient laws and customs of the burgh-
srs.
Lord Kitchner urged that it WAS use
less to continue the present inhumane
struggle, pointing out that the powers
had refused Mr. Kruger's requests for
Intervention. The burghers he said had
taught a good fight. but they had been
overpowered, and there was no dishonor
in the leaders recognizing this fact.
he reminded them that there we're hosts
OF Boer prisoners wsiting to be restored
to their families.
Referring to his proclamatons to the
country Lord hitchner said that unfor-
tuna ely these had not been allowed to
reach tho burghers and he trusted that
tho committee would make known the
facts to the Beers in the field, as he de-
sired to give them every chance to sur
render and wished to end the war in the
most humane means possible. He prom
ised to give the committee notice If COM

PEELED to abandon concilatory for harsh
or methods.
Going on to explain his recent procla-
nations confirming the statement that
those who had brdksn their oaths of neu
trality would be trested in the same way
as the 9th fe, he told the committee that
all would be accommodated and protect
ed. He said it was imperative to clear
the country of inhabitsnts.
The committee, which included Gen
Cronjes brother, cordially thanked LORD
Kitchener, and promised to print the
ch in Dutch and to circulate II

CUDAHYS THREATENED.
Letter Received Similar to That
Sent by Kidnapers, But Be-
lieved to Be a Hoax.

Omaha, Neb., Jan. 3-Another letter,
printed with lead pencil, was received
by e. A. Cudahy this afternoon, demand
ing the Withdrawal OF the reward offered
for the kdnapers. The fact that the ad-
dress was printed in similar style to the
former one gave rise to the suspicious
before 1t was opened that it was from the
same source, but Mr.. Cudahy stated to-
night that it was a rank imitation, and
said he did not attach the slightest sig
nificance to it. 1t was mailed in the
postoffice about $3.50 in the afternoon.
He showed the letter to a reporter, who
called at his home to verify report that
another letter had been received from
the kidnapers, and said it was evidently
patterned after the fac simile OF the for
mer letter that had been printed. He
stated that it was of the same class as
several others that had been received
from various points, except that it had
been printed. He p, inted out that there
was a marked dissimilarity between it
and the one received from the kidnapers,

general wording Gf it, as we'll as in the
spelling. Apparently, every word that
WAS possible of misspelling was misspel-
led. The letter demanded the with
drawal of the Cudahy offer Of reward
and of the city's offer as we'll, under pen
atty not only OF trouble Tor the children,
but the destruction of the entire "Cud-
ahy family" The epistle closed with an
injunction to "head this warning"
Edward A. Cudahy. Jr, failed today
to identify j. j. Grove as one Of the men
who kidnaF ed him. Cudahy appeared
at the city Jail and confronted Grove in
the Bertillon room.
After looking at the suspect five min
utes or more young Cudahy remarked:

the ore who stood guard over me, and il
he had anything at all to do with the
kidnapping l did not seem him.
Grove was then released.
Secret Service Agent witten today
stated positively that he saw Pat Grove
in St Joe. Mo-. the Friday after the kid
napiug. He does not think he was one
of the kidnapers.

Kruger Has Bronchitis.

The Hague, Jan. 2.-Mr. Kruger is
suffering from slight attack OF bron-
chitis. While there is no anxiety as to
his condition, he is obliged to keep to

Mrs. Heymans, Van Khuysen and
Coert during the day issued the follow
ing bulletin:
"Mr. Kruger has for some days been
suffering from recurrance of bronchitis
which, in view of his age and the effects
of thI climate, makes it necessary for
him to be more than ordinarily careful"
