America as has been any president
in the history Of the republic"
Compares Roosevelt and SvdnAv-

Mr.. Dickinson compared President
Roosevelt, amid the enthusiastic
cheers of those present, to Sir Philip
sydney, sans peur ct sans reproche."
Dealing with international feeling,
Mr.. Dickinson said:
we of the United States have long
ceased to boast that we alone are the
champions Of liberty" He cited the
recent dispatch Of Joseph Chamberlain,
the colonial secretary, declaring that
the constitution of the Cape Colony
should not be suspended, as an instance
of Great Britain's love OF liberty. He
declared that America deeply sympa-
thized with Mr.. Chamberlain in his
recent accident, and concluded by say
ing:
Great Britain and the United
States can make the worlds freedom
wider yet, not by alliance but by an
understanding that we, the English
speaking nations, mean well by the
rest of the world and that the other
nations must not attack either one of
U.s."
Mr.. Dickinson was loudly cheered
Lord McNaughton, lord Of appealing
ordinary, replying to Mr.. Dickinson,
declared that American legal decisions
were now held in respect in Eng
land equal to that with which the old
English legal precedents were held in
the United States.

COMMITTEE OF EMPLOYEES WILL
MEET THE GENERAL
MANAGERS
EACH MEETING TO
BE A SEPARATE ONE
Railroad Officials Say They VIII Be
Glad to Receive Representatives of
the Men Direct, But Declare They
Will Not Treat With Union Dele
gates at All.

CHICAGO, July 8.-Through the eff
forts of Chairman Job, of the state ar
bltratiOn committee, a series of meet
1ngs have been arranged for 10 o'clock
tomorrow morning between the general
managers of each of the roads and a
committee of five men from the same
line.
Chairman Job went to each railroad
separately and asked the general man
ager if he would receive a committee
of the strikers. In every instance he
was informed that the committee
would be received if it was understood
that it came from the employees of the
road and not from the Freight Hand
lers' union. Then Mr.. Job reported to
the men his success with the railroads
and secured their consent to the meet
ings. 1t was arranged that each COM
mittee should consist of five strikers.
The conference will be held at 10 a. M
These committees will not of them
selves be empowered to settle the
strike and whatever the agreement
may be, if any agreement is reached
at the meeting, it will be reported
back to the officials of the union at 2
p. m. for approval and no action will
the officers of the union.
Thinks Settlement in Sight.
Chairman Job said tonight that he
thought he had inserted the entering
wedge for the settlement of the strike
The men have all along insisted"
he said, that they would not meet
the managers unless they were re-
ce1Ved as members, of the union. The
managers have said that they would
confer with the men at any time pro-
V1ded they came as employees of the
road with grievance to be adjusted.
OF course, l cannot tell what will come
from the meetings, but the differences
in the demands of the men and the
concessions of the roads are so slight,
that recognition Of the union is prac-
tically the only thing at issue. The
men show a disposition to be less stiff
in this respect, and I hope we have
entered upon the beginning of the
end
President Curran Talks.
President Curran, Of the freight
handlers, issued the following state
ment tonight:
1--WE have offered Ito submit the is
sue to arbitration. l had long. con-
ference tonight with Mr.. Job, of the
state board of arbitration, and we
suggested that committee of five
freight handlers in each of the fifty
or more freight houses in Chicago
be appointed to call upon the railway
managers by which they are employ
ed and present our grievances.
II readily agreed to Mr.. Jobs sug-
gestion, and the committee will be APP
pointed at s o'clock tomorrow morn
ing. These committees will confer
with the railroad officials at 10 o'clock
and at o'clock in the afternoon will
report results to the executive COM
mittee of the Freight Handlers union.
The reports of these various commit
tees will decide the duration of the
strike / feel assured that the difficult
ty will be amicably adjusted before
tomorrow night"

Capt. Croskey, master OF the

regarding Wake island. In the mid
Pacific, owned by the United Statesf

San Francisco report. On his outward
voyage from this port last June
Capt. Croskey stood up by Wake ISL
and. He passed close to the land and
saw what he supposed to be NUM-
Der of shipwrecked men. He brought
the troopship to anchor and was pre-
pairing to send a boat ashore when
the men on land put out ii 9 small
boat. They proved to be Japanese,
and when they boarded the vessel
asked for medical supplies for sick
companion. Capt. Croskey said:
..They told me they were fishing
and gathering guano. They were
placed on the island BY fishing
schooner and had ample food to subs
sist on. Wake island, as chartered

died away into inarticulateness.
They were very quiet for long, long
space, and then the man, gnawing his
nails in the darkness, said:
eff there could be but chance!"
"Chance of what, my dear?" she
asked him.
"That I might escaped" he exclaimed.
Although he could not see her face
in the darkness, he could imagine the
look of hopelessness that was stealing
over it.
"But, of course, there is no chance!"
he said, almost in moan. "Confound
it all, if fellow could only lie down
and go to sleep, and stay asleep until

An hour later, when they were pre-
pairing for bed, he gave a sudden gasp
''By all the fodder of Hayville, feel
it coming on now!" he calculated.

II hours ahead of it's schedule time
