PEACE in PAWTucKET.
State Troop. Will Probably 30 Win
drawn.

Pawtucket, r. L., June 16.-Actioh
which the authorities hope means the
beginning of the end of the reign of
violence incident to the street railway
strike was taken yesterday by High
Sheriff Hunter c. White removing his
deputy sheriffs from the street cars.
He did this on representations made to
him that the deputies accomplished no
good purpose, but melted the crowds to
violence.
After the withdrawal of these men
the city became quiet. The 1880 troops
ordered out by Governor KimbaE
Thursday are still on duty, but if con,
ditions warrant they will be withdrawn
gradually, the first installment to leave
today. There was no rioting during
yesterday.
The first duty Of the militia, which is
assisting the local authorities to main
tain order in connection with the street
railway strike, was to clear the streets
of the debris which accumulated dur
ing the night, or had been placed on
the tracks to hinder the resumption
of traffic.
When this had been done the street
railway company was notified by Cen
eral Tanner that the road was unob-
structed and preparations were made
to send out cars.
Although there were no disturbances
during the night there was no relaxa-
ton Of the vigorous measures put in
force. There is a strong feeling con-
fined to one class of citizens against
the deputy sheriffs who have dis
charged firearms during the strike
This feeling was caused by the shoot
ing yesterday of the Peterson boy. The
feeling towards the militia is more
friendly.

CORONATION MAY BE F,Asco.
Public Greed Causes Fear That Il
Viii Sc a Great Sham.

London, June 19.--The coronation as
a public spectacle, threatens to be q
fasco. So serious and imminent has
this possibility become that the London
Times and other papers are printing
alarmist letters Urging the authorities
to take steps to prevent its failure be-
fore 1t is too la le.
The rapacity of the hotel keepers and
greed of the seat spectators are the
reasons. With scarcely more than a
week before the coronation, not so per
cert of the seats i'm the huge stand
have been sold. Thousands of people
residing i'm the suburbs and country
who had planned to come and see the
King crowned have now decided to stay
away, while a large proportion of Lon
doners will avail themselves of the OPP
portunity to enjoy a holiday elsewhere
in preference to submitting to the in
convenience of the extraordinary po-
lice regulations which will be enforced
on the coronation days.
1t is freely said that unless the stand
proprietors admit the public in a body
and gratis, or practically gratis, the
King Will pass To his coronation

city Measure.

Washington, June 16.-After talking
with a number of the leaders in con-
gress regarding Cuban reciprocity,
President Roosevelt today determined
to send message to congress affirming
his attitude on the subject. The presi-
dent has earnestly considered the mat
ter several days, and 1T is stated that
the action of the anti-reciprocity repub-
lican senators yesterday in deciding to
hold out against the policy advocated
by the majority of the party did not
influence the president in the least in
deciding to transmit his message to
congress today.
The presidents action, it may be
stated from sources close to him, was
influenced on the bround ground of the
duty of the United States to Cuba and
of fairness to the new republic. 1t has
been pointed out to the president that
his warmest political supporters are In
the section of country where there is
the greatest opposition to reciprocity
west and northwest-and that he
should remain content with the stand
he had taken without actuating his
views in a special message. 1t is
known, however, that the president did
not hesitate to arrive at the conclusion
that he would not let his political pros
poets interfere With what he regarded
as his plain duty. The president was
further led to conclude that the rela-
lions of the United States and Cuba
must necessarily grow closer, and that
the Omitted States should not at the
outset, after its declared purposes
toward the island, assume a position
contrary thereto, and thus arouse the
suspicious of the Cuban government as
to our real intentions toward it, 1t is
stated that the presidents positive dec
laration in his message today as to the
duty of congress will probably end his
active efforts to bring about recip

EXCITEMENT IN CORN.
The July Option Takos an Upward
Jump OF 3 1-5c.


Chicago, June 49,. Excitement broke
out in corn shortly after the end of the
first hours trading Shorts were badly
frightened because OF the tight man
ner in which the bulls We're holding
stuff, and In their anxiety to cover to
avoid further loss they bought every
thing Offered until July sold at G6asc.
AT this figure long stuff came out for
profit and the price slipped back to
65&c. Shorts continued to cover in
July corn feverishly up to the close of
trade. Gossip on the floor had it that
the elevators We're against bull
manipulators and that they were rush
ing in contract stuff. This was given
as the reason why the bull crowd let
the price jump up so high this early in
the month. 1t is thought the culmina-
ton OF the corner is to be brought
about within the week. July kept on
she upward jump and closed strong,
