INTEREST IN THE TOBACCO WAR
London Spectator Fakes n loom
View from the British
Standpoint.

LONDON. March 29.-The tobacco war
here has created a degree OF national in
terest far greater than that usually asso-
ciated with trade disputes. Academic or
gans, like the Spectator. devote many COL
umns to a serious discussion Of the results
Of such a wholesale disintegration of a
British system by American capital. The
Spectator draws a curious comparison of
the rival methods. English capitalists. :"
says the paper. will risk millions in trade
war with the greatest pluck, but American
capitalists will actually sacrifice them rather
than be beaten. Such wars are the en-
ioyment Of their otherwise rather dull
and overworked life. They will feel dis
graced II they do not win and will stake
their last dollar on exchanges which. TO
them. are fields of glory or humiliation.
What else have they to live for? Politics
offers no career. They cannot found fami-
lies. in the English sense, and as for luz
ury. they. enjoy 1t like the Roman mobiles
while they, have it. or do without in Sc
rene content"
These characteristics, the Spectator de-
duces, bode i'll for British trade, and IL
prophesiss an attempt to coerce the re.
taller, on the part Of the American COM
pany, which is now brought up all stand
ing against British check in the form of
the dull passivity OF the retailers neutral
ity between the combines, in which, con-
eludes the Spectator. there is unquestion-
able strength. for you can blow up ST. Paul's
sooner than a quagmire."

THREATEN STRIKE AT HAMMOND
Hog KILLERS Union objects to Treat
ment Of John Palm and Son
OF Omaha.

CHICAGO, March 29.-(Speciai Tele-
gram.)-A general strike among the $500
employees Of the @. II. Hammond company,
packers at Hammond, Ind, is threatened.
Unless John Palm, the superintendent of
the hog killing department, and his son.
George, are dismissed from the employ
OF the company the mon say they will go
out on strike. 'Tyrannical treatment" and
IAN overbearing disposition" are the charges
made against Palm and his son. The feel
Ing against the two officials is said to be
intense and it is predicted that the men
will stand on their demand for dismissal.
A committee from the Hog Killers union
waited upon General Manager X. II. Bell
today and declared that unless Palm and
his son we're discharged by 8 o'clock Tues
day morning they would go out on strike.
The committee assured the general man.
ager that II their demands were not COM
piled with a general walkout would re-
suit.
The officials OF the company are inclined
to make light Of the threat and declare
they will not comply with the demands OF
the men.
Superintendent Palm and his son, who is
a foreman under him. went to Hammond
from Omaha a year ago. The elder Palm
was formerly superintendent with the Nell
son Morris company Of Chicago. If a gen.
eral strike results 1t will be the first in
the history OF the company. Any inten-
ton of violence is disavowed by the menu
bers Of the Hog Killers union. They say
that they will have the support Of every
labor union in Hammond in their fight.

BISMARCK STILL IN ISOLATION
Cut on from Mail Service, with Little
Hope of Immediate
Relief.

BISMARCK, N. D., March 29.-This is the
fifth day OF the isolation Of Bismarck from
the world because of a mid-prairie lake
at Mckenzie. Practically nothing was &C
complished today toward relieving the sit
uation. Tonight a worktrain and a train
load Of passengers are at the scene of the
blockade, but 1t is not believed a cross
ing will be effected before tomorrow at
best. A platform is being built at the edge
Of the overfowed track tonight as a land
ing place for barges which are to be used
in transporting passengers.
No mails have reached the city since
Tuesday and there is a loud demand here
that something be done to relieve the local
situation. There has been a very slight re-
duction in the depth OF the water today,
but the indications are that there will be
no material change for some time yet. II
is predicted by those familiar with the sit
uation that 1t will be impossible to move
trains across the tracks for several days,
II not weeks.
Reports tonight state that the Missouri
river has broken below the city and is clear
of ice from Glencoe. thirty-ive miles be-
low here, to Fort Yates. The ice has not
yet broken here or at Washburn. The
river here fell fifteen inches during the
day.
MANDAN, N. D., March 2s,-This after
noon an eastbound train was sent from

sengers at McKensie over the flooded dis
trict when the wind went down. Postal Of

to send all eastbound mail west and It will
be sent around by Helena over the Great
Northern. A special train with eastbound
passengers went west today to be sent east
by the Burlington. Another bad snow
storm is raging here tonight.

MILL MEN ADVANCE WAGES
Accede to Demands Of Operatives and
Thousands of Employees Are
Benehted.

BOSTON, Mass, March 29.-The advance
of 10 per cent, which was granted TO the
1000, employees of Fall River cotton mills
early In the month, has become general in
southern New England. 1t is estimated by
April Z fully $4,000 hands in this section
will have had their wages increased.
PROVIDENCE, r. l., March 29.-Employes
of cotton mills in Rhode Island, Massa-
chusetts and eastern Connecticut to the
number Of q, 1000 will come under a is per
cent advance in wages, beginning April Z,
notices to this effect having been posted
today by the Lippitts, tho Goddards and
B.. B. and r.. Knight, who control prac-
tlcally all OF the cotton manufacturing of
this state. 1t is thought that the smaller
concerns will follow the leaders and that
the increase will become universal in this
section Of New England.
LOWELL, Mass, March 29.-The strike
Of 1000 cotton mill operatives in seven of
the largest mill plants here has been
averted for a week at least, with a possible
revocation of the strike order within a
few days.
The textile council was called together
tonight, and after q long conference 1t
voted to postpone the strike pending the
efforts Of the business men to settle diff
culties.
Tonight 1t does not appear hat the wage
question is any nearer solution than when
the ounci early In the week made its de-
mand, or when on Wednesday night the
council Voted to order a strike. The mill
agents have said that they cannot raise
wages and from the beginning OF the con
ference they have held to that view>
FALL RIVER, March 29.-The cardroom
employees Of the Pocassett mills complain
that they are not receiving the full 10 per
cent advance recently agreed upon by the
manufacturers Their grievances will be
considered by the Carders' association

went out on strike today at the Globe Star
mills OF the New England Cotton Yarn

branches to meet a committee Of the asso-
citation to arrange Jointly for the wage rate
for the coming year and the summer shut
down. Heretofore the association has met
each trade separately. The departure from
the established rule is said to be due to the
fact that many green blowers, formerly
members of the American Flint Glass
Workers union, have become affiliated with
the Bottle Blowers association. 1t Is I'M
derstood that both branches will ask for an

BERLIN. March 29.-Andrew d. White,
the United States ambassador to Germany,

cided as to whether he will do so at some

did the other American ambassadors and
other ministers, II he would remain during
his term, and Mr.. White gave him his gem
eral assurance that he would. This assur-
ance. however. Is not regarded as a bar to
