Winnipeg today. In conversation with
a correspondent Ward made the above
statement and said that the Dukhobors
had gone back to their villages only be-
cause the government forced them to
do so and because the weather made
tramping uncomfortable.
LAS soon as the summer is around
again." he continued, they will resume
their march. Having tested to their
satisfaction the hospitality of the farm
ers along the railraod tracks they will
have no hesitation in again taking part
in another fanatical search for Jesus.
They are now praying in tlleir villages
and altho quiet for the present move
ment is said to be on foot to induce
the entire Dukhobor population to join
in a missionary tour of the; world.
John the Baptist Is lost and cannot
be located and the theory t,f the people
living in the vicinity is that he is work
ing hard to accomplish his desire in
again attempting to march the Dakho-
bors to Winnipeg as soon as the
weather will permit"
One hundred homeseekers arrived
yesterday from the Dakotasi, Minnesota
and Iowa. They left last evening for

GERMANY AROUSED

Official Statement Says More Cruisers
Must Be Built to Protect and Extend
German Trade in South American
Countries.
Berlin, Nov. 29.-The> German fleet, to
which Emperor William and nearly all
his cabinet ministers, naval officers and
many other high in government circles
statement of the considerations which
belong, has sent to its several members
make necessary the building of more
cruisers for service abroad, especially
in South American waters. The COM
munication deals with German trade
relations there and goes into detail re-
garding the amount of present German
capital invested and the future possi-
biiities of German interests there. 1t
does not contain the least trace of jim
goisn, but concludes with a carefully
pi.rased parasl3eifl saying that Ger
mans must make UP their minds wheth-
er the business already created shall be
protected and extended or allowed to
languish; that if the former alternative
is accepted the navy must be increased
by sufficient cruisers to adequately pro-
tect trade.
BY Dec. 10 Germany will have seven
ships in the West Indies, but according
to present arrangements their stay in
those waters is indefinite.

Gently in the Belmont county courts to
Mrs. Caroline Meyers. Mrs. Meyers
had sued for $4,000. claiming that thru
an imperfect water system her property
had been damaged. She got a Judgment
for $500 and the city did not seem will
ing to make settlement. Yesterday
afternoon Sheriff S. S. Forwan went
to Martins Ferry and took possession
of the town hall. The building Is not a
pretentious one, but is sufficient to pay
a good many $500 judgments. The
sheriff was prevailed upon to withhold
execution until the council meets.

ENGLISH VIEW OF IT.
What Mosely and His Workmen Think
of America.

What MoseIy and His Workmen Think
of America.
New York, Nov. 29.-Alfred Mosely,
o. retired English merchant, who with a
number of workmen has made a SIX
weeks tour of this country to study the
industrial conditions here and In Cam
ada, says: Our trip, on the Whole,
was immensely satisfactory and we
we're all impressed with the up-to-
oateness of everything we saw. An
other thing that impressed us was the
courtesy and frankness of the Ameri :
can employers and the pains they We're
willing to take to explain the methods
in use at their respective factories ana
work" The delegates will report their
Impressions to the unions of their re-
spective trades on their return to En-
gland
Ternes Flynn. of the Tailors' Union,
said: counting the extra outlay in
rent and clothes, for food and all else
are cheaper, the American workman is
25 ner cent better off than the work
man In England. On the whole he is
far better cared for in the respect oi
good sanitation, general comfort ana
better equipment than we are, ana on
the whole he lives as long, or longer, III
the harness than an English workman.
This too old at SO principle does not
prevail among workmen, wherever else
il may be found. We speak from OBJ
servation. Here pauperism or penury
in old age is almost unknown. The rec
crds of English workhouses speak for
themselves

Great Britain and Russia at Outs on
Brussels Conferences

st. Petersburg, Nov. 2s.--It is Off
cialiy announced that Great Britain is
the only power that has replied to the
Russian note regarding the sugar con-
ference. The reply hoped that the Rus
sian government would still signify its
adherence to the Brussels convention,
but, If not Great Britain would be COM
PEELED to impose a retaliatory duty on
Russian sugar provided that the inter-
national commission decides that SUI
gar bounty exists in Russia. The Rus

Britains note declaring that such ac-
ton would be an infringement of the
Anglo Russian commercial treaty of
1859
1t Furthermore declares 1t regards an
infringement of the Anglo Russian
commercial treaty as a very dangerous
precedent for the regulated develop
ment OF international relations between
friendly nations. The Russian reply
concludes by offering to submit the

Judge Mcpherson of the United
States court is due to render a decision
on the telephone injunction case before
him. The testimony has been taken
and the arguments made to him. There
is nothing left nthe case but an abb
stract principle, if there ever was any
thing else The injunction was origin
ally secured by the Iowa Telephone
Company from Judge Sanborn at st.
Paul. There was criticism of the COM
pany for going outside the state to in
yoke the aid of the courts, and the at
torneys for the strikers brought the ac-
ton before Mcpherson to dissolve San
born's injunction. Again, the courts
have come in for some criticism be-
cause the case was so long dragged out,
and was made so expensive for the
strikers. They have freely charged
that this was done to cause the strikers
to give up on account of discourage
ment. AS matter of fact the strikers
failed utterly, and there has been no
strike on for long time. There never
was any great interference with the
telephones of the company, but many
threats, and the company wants to es-
tablish precedent to be followed in
similar cases in the future. In this sense
the labor organizations and the tele-
phone managers are both greatly in
terested in the outcome of this case.

says that it seems not improbable that
the policy OF The United States in al

dictated by sentiment usually does. 1t
adds that presumably some sort OF
temporary compromise will be ar
ranged, but the Americans may yet
discover that their constitution was
made for sober Englishmen, intent on
order, rather than for Spanish Amer
leans, who are like the Spaniards, but

SAYS TREATY is UNNECESSARY
Senator cuiIom Raises New Point Re-
garding the Canal.

Washington, d. c., Nov. Ex-senator
Cullom, chairman of the senate COM
mittee on foreign relations, inclines to
the belief that it is unnecessary for
the, United States to make a treaty
with Colombia in order to acquire the
right to build a canal across the 18TH
mus OF Panama. Mr.. Cullom will not
make positive statement to this effect,
but it is known that he may take this
position positively and publicly in the
near future. The theory held by Sen
ator Cullom and others who believe
that it is unnecessary to negotiate a
treaty with the Colombian government
is based on the belief that the United
States will acquire all the necessary
rights and privileges for building, the
canal when 1t hands over to the new
Panama Canal company of France the
s40,000,0o0 in payment for the title
which Attorney General Knox recently
decided valid.

Palma Accepts the Resignation of Cow
ernnent Secretary Tamayo.

Havana, Nov. 29.-At a special meet
ing Of the cabinet, presided over by
President Palma, 1t was unanimously
decided to accept the resignation of
Secretary of Government Tamayo, Sec
retary of Instruction zero assuming the
duties Of the vacant post until a new
successor is appointed. That President
Palma did not request Tamayo to re-
consider his resignation was unexpect-
ed by the nationalist party, which
hitherto has been in the front of Cuban
politics. The republicans are jubilant
at the practical removal of the presi-
dent OF the nationalist party from the
most important cabinet position, and
claim that this step means the breaking
up OF the party.
President Palma and late Secretary
Tamayo have always been close friends,
and 1t is rumored that the president
will provide a position for him in con-
nection with the work of sanitation.
