A Missouri Injunction.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. 4.-,Tudge
Phillips of the federal court has issued
temporary injunction restraining the
officers and members of the Retail
Clerks National Protective association
and the Journeymen Tailors union
from enforcing their boycott on Kan
sas City clothing firm. The patrolling
of the sidewalk in front of the premises
was stopped by order of the court. The
cause of the trouble was the refusal Of
the firm to comply with the demands
of the union to close the store at night.
Judge Phillips said that the court had
no disposition to oppose the union, but
that the members had no right to stand
in front Of mans place of business
and accOst people who were about to
enter the store with the view Of de-
terring them from buying therein.

Ohio Electric Road Tied In.

IRONTON, o., Aug. 4.-Thc strike Of
the employees of the Camden Inter

dotte, w. Va. to Hanging Rock, o.,

driven from the cars in this city by
violence. Crowds gathered at street
intersections. hurting fruit, eggs and
other missiles at motormen and con-

Pool to Rinse Price Of Bread,

CITY OF MENlCO, Aug 4.-Thcre
is much popular Indignation here over
the formation of pool among the
bakers of this city to raise the price
of bread. This trade is in the hands
of half a dozen rich Spaniards from
old Spain, who have signed an agree
ment to charge prices mutually agreed
on and not in any way to enter into
competition, as they have done hither-
to. The agreement is for two years.
The daily papers point out that this
agreement is wholly unjustitiable, as
the price of wheat has not altered in
two years, while the taxes are the
same. The cost of living for poor pco-
pie and the lower middle class has
been increasing here steadily, and
meat has been rising for two years

NO COALITION PLANS
RussIa's Position Relating to
Sugar Bounties Defined.
GOVERNMENT NOTE misunderstood.
American Newspapers Had Inter-
pretcd 1t to Mean n Combine
In Europe Against Amer
lean Trade.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-Mr. NJ.
ROutkowski, the financial agent of the
Russian government at Washington,
has, by direction of the home authori-
ties, made the following official state
ment regarding the recent note of the
Russian minister of finance relating to
the Brussels sugar convention:
"In view of the erroneous interpre-
tation by many organs of the Ameri-
can press of the object and meaning of
the recent note of the Russian minister
of finance sent to various govern
ments, whose representatives have
signed the Brussels convention on sup
preston of bounties on sugar, NJ. Rout-
kowsky, financial agent Of the Russian
government in the United States, has
been instructed to communicate to the
American press that in case of the neg
alive answer of the powers to the above
mentioned note and the establishment
Of a countervailing duty on Russian
sugar the imperial Russian govern
ment shall consider the establishment
commercial treaties with powers so do.
ing and therefore free from obligations
imposed by them and at liberty not to
comply with their stipulations When
ever it will be to the advantage Of Rus
sia."
Many of the American newspapers,
NJ. Routkowsky explained, have inter-
preted the note referred to as move
on the part of the Russian government
to inaugurate European coalition
against American trade. Such an un-
derstanding, he declares. is entirely in
correct and does the Russian govern
ment an injustice. The note was sent
by Russia to the governments partici-
pating in the Brussels sugar confer
ence and also to the American govern
ment merely as an act of courtesy, the
United States not having been party
to that conference. In retaliation for
the countervailing duty against Rus
sian bounty sugars imposed by the
United States. Russia now imposes her
maximum tariff rates. The object Of
the statement, NJ. ROutkowsky says,
is to show that Russia is not engaged
in any effort to wage a campaign
against American trade, but to make
plain to the parties to the Brussels con-
ference that the imposition of counter
vailing duties against Russian sugar
will be met as it was in the case of the
United States. The question of the le-
gality of the countervailing duty on
Russian sugar is now pending in the
United States supreme court.

Viii Council lake Tri1

Members Of City Council are still
undecided in regard to their proposed
trip to Grand Rapids to attend the
convention Of the League of Ameri-
can Municipalities.
They had expected to go until q
few days ago but it is now rumored
that the citizens association will take
action to restrain the members Of
council from taking the trip at the
expense of the city.
There is some question of the aSso-
citation being able to stop members
from going, but there is no doubt Of
the power OF the courts to stop the
payment OF the bill of expenses. Last
year, however, the amount necessary
for expenses was drawn before the
members started upon the trip.
1t is pointed out that the amount
necessary to pay for this junket Of
the councilmen would pay the expense
Of dredging out the Christiana river
in front OF the wharf at Front and
Church streets and this would bring
in some revenue to the city while the
trip to Grand Rapids would not result
in anygood.
1t is not believed that members OF
Council would attend all OF the ses-
sions of the convention il they went

WILL SHOOT TO KILL
Stern Orders to Troops on
Duty at Shenandoah.
THE CAMP WAS REPEATEDLY STONED
An Ugly Feeling Against the State
Guard-SOldiers Are Frequently
JOstIcd and Otherwise An
nOyed In the Streets.

SHENANDOAH, Pa, Aug. A
double guard supplied with ball car
tridges surrounds the camp now, and
the sentries have been instructed that
II stone throwing is repeated they
must shoot to kill and investigate aft
erWard. One of the recent attacking
party, Lithuanian named William
Stoponitz, is under arrest and is con-
fined in the guard tent and the pro-
yost marshal is on the trail of others.
The entire Eighth regiment was
called to arms during Saturday night
as u result of three attacks made by a
band of men in ambush who threw
stones at the troops now in camp on
the plateau outside the town. These
attacks had become so frequent that
Brigadier General Goblin decided to
adopt stern measures. No disturbance
occurred last night.
Colonel Hoffman said that he did
not know whether the stone throwing
was done to annoy the troops or to
see what the regiment would or could
do.
Saturday nights occurrence demon
strates that we can be ready for any
emergency in three minutes" he said,
land hereafter we will stand no nom
sense and will give bullet for each
stone"
The colonel said there is an ugly
feeling among many persons against
the troops. Reports are being made to
him daily of soldiers being elbowed
and otherwise annoyed on the streets.
1t was the intention of Colonel Hoff-
man to give parade in the town
proper as compliment to the briga-
dicr general, but owing to Saturday
nights affair it was decided that it
would be better to have the parade
take place within the camp.
The soldiers spent quiet Sunday.
There was a large crowd out. The
regiment chaplain held services in the
morning and in the afternoon each
command gave q dress parade.

Mitchell Reports No Change.

WILKESBARRE Pa, Aug. A.
President Mitchell of the United Mine
Workers made another visit to Scran-
ton yesterday. Before going he said
there was no change in the strike situa-
ton. He did not think that an attempt
would be made to resume work at any
of the cOllieries the coming week.
From what he could learn the Oxford
mine, in the Lackawanna region, was
being operated by new men. None of
the old employees had returned. and
at meeting they pledged themselves
not to return. Mr.. Mitchell said the
same conditions prevailed throughout
the entire region. The strikers We're
still confident that they were going to
win. and so long as they felt that way
there was little probability that they
would report for work.
