ing Made.

Woods Hole, Mass, Sept. 1.-The
United States cruiser Olympia dashed into
this port this forenoon, landed a force and
seized all telegraph, telephone and cable
stations, thereby cutting off all communi-
cations with Martha's Vineyard and Eliz-
abeth Island
OF course the seizure and the destruc-
tion of Geographic and cable facilities
were flgurative, and it required the deci-
sion of an umpire to make plain whether
or not the point attempted by Admiral
digginson had been won. AS the landing
was made, the telegraph and telephone
offices were entered by sufficient force to
have destroyed the property, or at least
the instruments, and at the same time a
boats crew had located the cables with
graphing hooks and had held them a
sufficient period to have allowed for the
cutting of them, there seemed to have
been no question that the move had been
entirely successful.
The Olympia appeared off this port sud-
denly early this morning and imm ediately
two boats put off toward shore. One
was a launch and the other was whale
boat. and in them was detachment under
Lieutenant L. M. Everhardt. The launch
landed here, while the whaleboat lay off
shore and at once began graphing for
the cable. The men under Lieutenant
Everhardt rushed to the office Of the Mar
thas Vineyard Telegraphic company and
| then to the telephone station and carried
out their orders to make the seizure. Hav-
ing accomplished this work they returned
to their launch, joined the Whaleboat and
returned to the ship:
This move cut off the only commun1ca
ton with the islands of Nantuck and
Marthas Vineyard, which are very impor-
tant observation stations.

Money for the Strikers.


Chicago. Sept. 1.-More than half the
usual business of Chicago is at a standstill
to-day in honor Of labor. The plants rep
resented in over 800 labor unions, as we'll
as banks and the stock exchanges and
board Of trade were closed while organized
labor celebrated its annual holiday. Dur
ing the morning hours great throng of
workingmen passed in review through the
down-to streets. A novel feature of
this parade was a contribution of money
for the striking anthracite miners thrown
into a number of outstretched American
flags borne along the route by several of
the unions In the afternoon picnics
were held at many of the adjacent parks.
Senator w. e. Mason In an address
said:
''One Of the first questions that con-
fronts us Is the question of organization
and it is the most important question that
,cOnfronts the laboring men Of the United
States to-day. The laboring man is the
producer; the producer to be prosperous
must find the consumer. We doctors,
lawyers, preachers, teachers are prosper
Gus when labor is employed at fair and
honest wages and anything that inter-
feres with the prosperity Of labor is an
interference with the prosperity of the
nation and hindrance in the march of
Civilizations ~
In speaking Of the question, of, the re-
cent INJUNCTION III the anthracite coal
strike, the senator said: \.

The Only Point the Mclean Faction
Will Contend With the
johnson Forces. d
Otherwise Tommel Johnson the Big
Clevelander Will Dominate =,
the Convention. -
The K. c. Platform Will Be Reaf.
firmed and Bryan Will
J. Be Endorsed. -

Sandusl1y, Ohio, Sept 1.-Some OF the
delegates are already here for the state
democratic convention which opens to-
morrow. Nominations are only for four
state offices and there are no heated
contests for places on the state ticket.
AS the result of county conventions
which indicated that the Mclean element
was taking no aggressive part except
in the selection Of state committeeman,
and as most Of the delegates are friendly
to Mayor Thomas l.. johnson of Cleve-
land, who will be chairman Of the con-
vention, the indications are that the con-
vention will be harmonious and without
unusual features except in the ovation
accorded Mayor Johnson. While it is gen.
orally conceded that he can name the
ticket and dictate the platform, there is
no slate announced
1t Is conceded that Rev. Herbert 8.
Bigelow can have the nomination for Sec
rotary Of state If he will accept 1t, but
since the Mclean element secured the
organization in the home county by re-
eecting Lewis G. Bernard as chairman
Of the executive committee at Cincin-
natl, Rev. Mr.. Bigelow's acceptance may
remain in doubt until after a conference
between Johnson, Bigelow and other lead
erS.
Everything is conceded by the Mclean
men to the Johnson element. When the
delegates meet Tomorrow evening by
congressional districts it will be deter
| mined what faction secures majority Of
the twenty-one members of the state
committee and that is the feature and
| the fight of the convention.
| The Mclean men, while not in accord
| with Mayor Johnson's views on national
and state policies, will not make a fight
on the Johnson PLATFORM The platform
will make a stand on franchises and
other state issues, but it will also reaf-
firm the Kansas City platform and in
| dorse Bryan.
The democratic convention that nomt-
mated Colonel James Kilbourne for gov
ernor last year did not mention BRYAN
or the Kansas City platform.

tiated in one of the labor Organizations.

the prospect. They have already been
at work two days and will probably re-
port this evening. The butter has dis
tinctly weedy flavor. The ordinary con-
sumer migrt not detect it, but these but
Ter sharps are keener than razors

past summer has been good for the pas
lures and the weeds, and the cows being
allowed to hustle for their own provender
and not knowing that they were going on
record at the state fair. partook Of too
many weeds. There are about PTS en-
tries Of butter and cheese this year, fifty
more than last year. Most Of the ex-
htbits come from Minnesota, but there are
several entries from Wisconsin,, and New
York. North and South Dakota and Iowa
are represented in the list.

of Engineer Ira F. Wallace and Fireman
John Robertson, who were killed in the
wreck on the Chicago & North Western

slowly. Water had formed an eddy which
scooped out the earth under the ties and
as soon as the heavy engine reached the
weakened section it capsized and the en-
g1neer and fireman were pinned under the
heavy machine.
One mail car went over the engine and
was wrecked, and Mail Clerk Fernholz
