cumspection in all your Photographic
work, although it requires but a small
fraction of time to impress the sensi-

Wilkesbarre, Pa, June l0.-The eight
ening up process which has been in prog
ress since the anthracite coal strike began
four weeks ago today continues. All
classes of trades unions in the hard coal
belt have taken a hand in helping the
miners, and now the long predicted move
of the railroads in the region has been
made. The decision of these men at their
meetings held yesterday to refuse to aid
the companies in their fight against the
miners has encouraged the strikers greatly

from one colliery to the other. Some
of the Lehigh Valley trainmen declin-
ed during the past two days to handle
trains, and crews were recruited with
some difficulty.
The Lehigh Valley trainmen held a
secret meeting and decided that they
will not handle any coal mined at the
colliery or any soft coal sent over the
Hazleton division to displace anthra-
cite during the continuation of the
strike. They will continue manning
trains, carrying officers and deputies
and men recruited in the big cities,
ii they are not imported in such large
numbers as to enable the companies
to resume mining of coal with non
union forces.

CALLED ONKITCHENER
Schalk-Burger, Under Flag Of
Truce, Had an Interview.
The Boer Position at Rhenoster Kop
Had Become Almost Hopeless and
Mr.. SchaII<-Burger Once Mar
rowly Escaped Capture.

Pretoria, March 24.-Acting Presi-
dent Schalk-Burger, F. w. Reitz, ex-
secretary of state of the TransvaaI,
and Commandments Lucas, Meyer and
Krogh, with their secretaries and at
tendants, arrived here Friday, March
p, at 2:04 p M. on a special train
from Balmoral, about so miles east
of here. They came into BalmoraI
under a flag of truce.
Upon arriving here Mr.. Schalk-Bur-
ger and his party drove Immediately
to Lord Kitchener's headquarters,
where he had an interview with the
British general. The Beers then pro-
ceeded to the railroad station and en-
trained at 5 o'clock for Kroonstadt.
whence they will go out under a safe
conduct.
For week past Mr.. Schalk-Burger
and his colleagues have been station
ed at Rhenoster kop, north of Balmo-
raj, where they have been closely
pressed by British columns. The ad-
vance guard entered Balmoral Friday
night and notified the British of the
approach of Mr.. Schalk-Burger and
his party.
1t is reported that the Boer posi-
ton at Rhenoster kop had become al
most hopeless and that Mr.. Schalk-
Burger once narrowly escaped cap
ture.
London, March 24.-Nothing is act
ually known here of the intentions of
Messrs. Schalk-Burger, Reitz, Meyer
and Krogh. tt IS possible they have
only sought permission to traverse the
British lines in order 10 consult with
Mr. Steyn and the Boer generals De-
Wet and Delarey. But whatever their
object the news has been welcomed
in London as pointing to the POSSIBLE
'ty of peace.
Some correspondence, which was
dzed short time ago, when Mr..
Steyn narrowly escaped capture, prov
ed that he and Mr.. Schalk-Burger
were anxious to conclude peace. No
eXtravagant hopes, however, are being
built on the outcome of the move
ments of Mr.. SchalB-Burger and his
companions, chiefly because it is fear
ed that Delarey, in the flush of his sue
cess, will refuse to be a party to any
negotiations.

Took the Honors.

Indianapolis, Ind, March 22.-Fred
Gilbert, of Spirit Lake, Ia, again took
the hOnOrs at the Limited Gun club
shoot, winning the Grand Central han

Columbus, O., who killed rs straight,
but who missed the first bird of the
shoot. All through Hicks set the pace.
being in the first squad, while Gilbert
was several squads down the list.
Hicks had bit the advantage, too,
for he shot from the % yard mark,
while Gilbert was on the 80 yard mark.
It was the most severe handicap ever
given a man at the traps in Indian
apolis.
Considering the handicap with the
other experts shooting at yard closer,
the work of the Spirit Lake man was
all the more brilliant. He had some
fierce birds too, while Hicks had lit
tie the better of it in this; still the
fight of some of his birds was hard.
The two men divided first money
and shot off for the medal. There
were 81 entries in all and the first
money amounted to $2775O, netting
each man S13875, from which is sub
tracted his entrance fee of $25, max
ing a nice winning.
The second men were Rhoads, Head,
of Peru, and Fox, who divided $20810.
The third men were Alters, Worries, of
Charlottesville; Heikes, of Dayton,
and Budd, of Iowa. They split up
S138.75.
The fourth hole men were Rike, Of
Dayton; Clay, Phil, Young and Neal.
The money amounted to $694O, and
was split five ways.

BoRAcIc PRESERVED MEAT.
Comments on Its Exclusion From the
German Empire.

Berlin, March 22-The criticism
made in the United States of the exclu-
sion by Germany of meats preserved
with borax is answered here with the
statements that the prohibition ap-
plies to domestic and foreign meats
equally and that American exporters
have nothing to complain of that does
not apply to German preserved meat
dealers. But the agents here of Ameri-
can meat exporters say that this is no
answer at all, because bOracic meat
preserving is an unknown art in Ger
many and never likely to be much
used, 3s it is unnecessary to preserve
meat that is consumed where it is pro-
duced. Besides, they declare, the reg
ulations are aimed at America alone
and can serve no other object than
10 prevent American exporters from
competing with domestic meat pro-
ulcers.
