to close, leaving a district of 100000
without their principal market. Seven
ty-fye cars loaded with ice were in rail
road yards waiting to be unloaded. The
packers refused to employ union labor to
unload them and were unable to get non
union men.
Advertisements in many papers out of
Chicago offer So a day to men to take the
strikers places. The wage demanded by
the strikers is from $3.50 to $3.50. Ship
pers were notified that no cattle would
be bought and the dearth of a supply sent
prices up % per cent.
The transfers were informed chat all
members of the alleged trust were will
ing to sign the schedule except Swift &
Co., Nelson Morris & Co. and Armour Il
Co. Notice was sent from the Transfers
national headquarters in Chicago to Oma-
ha, Kansas City, st. Joseph, st. Louis
and other cities where the packing houses
have branches, instructing the union en-
ployes to hold themselves in readiness for
sympathetic strike.

1000 women and girls at Libby, Mcneil

for the packers, admit that half of the
union scale is paid in most departments
and say a great loss would be inflicted
upon them if they recognize organized la
bor If the strikers persist in their
course, the packers assert, the public
will be without meat, the packing houses
also holding two-thirds Of the eggs and
poultry on the market.
Drivers of delivery wagons in all of
the ten big State street department stores
went on strike Tuesday morning. The
refusal of the proprietors and managers
of the stores to sign the agreement sub
mitted by the National Transfers Union
and the Parcel Delivery Drivers Union
precipitated the strike.

CHICAGO'S BIG STRIKE.
Transfers Tie-Up Threatens Both
Meat and Ice Famine.

The Transfers strike spread it's results
throughout all sections of Chicago Mon
day. Disorder and bloodshed followed
efforts Of the packers to move their meat
wagons. A series of riots occurred on
the West and North sides. Serious trou-
BILE was experienced on the South Side.
Two score or more of trouble makers
were arrested. A number of policemen
were seriously injured.
One peculiar feature of the general sit
uation is the fact that the strikers kept
in the background. The disorder and
bloodshed followed the movements Of
their sympathizers or alleged friends.
Meat wagons under the ban of the
Transfers Association were blockaded
in a systematic manner by street cars
as we'll as by brother union teamsters
not on strike.
Chicago has been experiencing both
meat and an ice famine. The ramifica
tons of the striking packers are extern
sive, all labor bodies lending their full
quota of moral and financial assistance.
At the stock yards, Saturday and Mon
day, there was an utter absence Of bust
ness, while not pound of meat was be-
ing delivered by the packers, who gave
the ultimatum Of no recognition Of union
ism. The small number of independent"
butchers and packers at the yards were
unable to furnish a sixteenth of the local
demand for meats. The downtown hotels
and large restaurants were not only short
of meat, but also of ice, while the coal
teamsters threatened, if patronage of the
meat packers was continued, to cut off
the supply of fuel. Ice dealers were no
titled that any attempt on their part to
supply the hotels would result in a strike
against them.
The coal and ice supply of the Fulton
market, the large downtown distributor,
was cut off and the market was forced

It Of time the conference would be con-
sidered ended and his majesty's govern
ment would not be bound in any way by
the present declarations.
The Beers asked to be allowed until
Saturday night to give an answer, and
the result was seen in the termination of
the war.
The signing of the peace agreement on
Saturday night last was carried out with
the least possible ceremony. Lord hitch
ener and Lord Miner, and Gen. De Wet
and others. representing the Orange Free
State, and Gen. Schalk-Berger and 9TH
ers Of the Transvaal government, quiet
ly met in the dining room of the resi-
dence occupied by the burgher delegates,
adjoining Lord Kitchener's house in Pre-
tora.
The document lay on a table, ready.
Amid profound silence the Boer leaders
took pen, in order of precedence, and
affixed their signatures, thus surrender
ing the independence for which they had
so CALAMITY struggled.
The announcement of peace in South
Africa was hilariously celebrated in Lon
don Monday night. There was a tremen-
dous noise in the streets, pandemonium
Of horns and cheers and the coarse jests
Of costers.
Women. many carrying babies, boys,
drunken loafers and others, glad of any
excuse to defy the law and order, were
the principal elements in the ragged pro-
cessions passing and repassing through
the principal streets.
The Liberal members of the House of
Commons declared freely that peace in
South Africa might have been secured a
year earlier and upon better terms had
not the British government been so OBJ
durate. In some quarters the comment
on this "peace with honor ending of
the war was that "Great Britain has the
peace and the Beers have all the honor"

GREAT LOSSES IN LIFE.
More than 100000 Persons Dead on
Both Sides in Conflict.

More than 100000 Persons Dead on
Both Sides in Conflict.
Three hundred thousand men, women
and children comprised the population of
the South African republic and the Or
ange Free State when the war began.
Although it is impossible to get the ex-
act figures, it is estimated that the sur
vivors of the conflict number only about
1874, 900 persons, the death list, therefore,
numbering 10000. OF the survivors 1871,
600 are women and children, who are
congregated in the British concentration
camps: $4,000 men are prisoners of war
in the hands Of the British, while 1000
soldiers will quit the field as a result of
the signing of the terms Of surrender.
Boer leaders who were in position

or even an approximate number of their
compatriots in arms. British officers.
however have sought information from
prisoners and from natives of South At
RIGA who had penetrated the Boer lines
and their estimate of the total number
of Boer soldiers is 5000. This, how
ever, may be in excess Of the actual
number of able-bodied men in the ranks.
In order to crush this seemingly insig-
nifcant force it has required 325, 900
British soldiers, aided by the most mod
ern arms and accouterments. The Brit

HOW PEACE CAME ABOUT.
Details of the Movements Leading Up
to the Agreement.

to the Agreement.
A parliamentary paper gives the CORE
spondence preceding the Boer-Britlsh
peace agreement. From this it appears
that Gen. Schalk-Berger (acting presi-
dent of the TransyaaD informed Lord
Kitchener March II that he was prepar-
ed to make peace proposals. A month
later the Beers delegates submitted
propositions.
On April IS the war secretary, Mr..
Brodrick, refused to entertain any prop
osition based on the independence of the
republics. Subsequently President Steyn
Of the Orange Free State and Gems.
Schalk- Berger and Botha declared that
the surrender of independence must be
submitted to the burghers in the field.
The British government expressed sur
prise at this attitude, but announced its
willingness to accept the Beers surren-
der on the same terms that Lord kitch-
ener had previously offered Gen. Botha,
and to give facilities for a consultation
of the BOer commands.
On May II Gen. Schalk-Berger and
Mr. Steyn informed Lord Kitchener that
the burghers assembled at Nereenlging
had empowered a commission to nego-
tate peace terms, subject to ratification
at Vereenigng. Lord Miner, Lord
Kitchener, and the Boer commission met
May 10.
The latter offered to surrender the in
dependence of the republics as regards
foreign relations; to surrender part OF
their territory, and retain self-govern-
ment under British supervision. These
proposals were forthwith rejected.
The same dav Lord Miner Gen. SHUTS
and Judge Hertzog drew up form of
agreement, to be submitted to the con-
ference at Vereeniging, for a yea or nay
vote. This was very similar to the final
agreement, and with few alterations, was
approved by Mr.. Chamberlain, who, in
giving notice of his approval, told Lord
Miner he must inform the Beers that
unless it was accepted within fixed linn

NO SUCCESS FROM SIN.
Fruits of Iniquity Follow in This
world and Hereafter.

Rev. Bascom Anthony preached at
Trinity Methodist Church last night
a strong and eloquent sermon upon
THE Sin OF Seeking Success at the
Sacrifice of Principle" The conclusion
rached by the speaker was that no
success, builded upon wrong or in
justice was capable of enduring.
Mr. Anthony contended that even in
this world good always met is regard
and guilt it's punishment, though to
outward seeming conditions might ap-
pear to be reversed. No fixed success,
no secure and permanent advantage,
could result from a course of action
intrinsically wrong, but to the good
man, who lived out life's allotted span
in the fear of God, with charity to-
wards his fellows. and with an earnest
desire to keep in the straight and mar
row path, there was the assurance OF
peace and quiet days on earth and OF
a glorious and blessed heritage here
after.
A man cannot receive the pardon of
God who seeks to retain the fruits OF
his own iniquity. He must restore that
which he has obtained dishonestly or
unfairly if he expects to have descend
upon him that peace (which passeth
all understanding.

fashion. The crime that this place
breeds will eat up the license that it
pays the city. in court costs alone, a
hundred times over. The injury that
it brings no amount of money can re-

SNOW HURT SCHEDULES.
Trains Delayed by the Unusually
Cold Weather.

The unusually cold weather has in
terfered with the running of the rail-
way trains for the last two days. Some
of those from tine North have been
delayed considerably because of the
extreme conditions that have been en-
countered Especially has this been
true on lines like the Southern, that
pass through the mountains. Drifts
of snow have covered the tracks, MAX
ing progress slow. Saturday showed
greater delay to the trains than yes
terday though some were still run
ming considerably behind.
