FLORENCE is IN A BAD FIX
Strike Has Spread So Generally that
Living Has become a Difficult
Accomplishment.

FLORENCE, Aug. S1.-The employees OF
forty different callings have Joined the
strikers of last Friday. The town appears
to be in state of siege. Troops have
been recalled from maneuvers and every
square In the city is occupied by soldiers.
Infantry with fixed bayonets and cavalry
patrols are on guard in Florence. Six
thousand troops in addition to a number
of policemen and carboniers have been
concentrated in the city. Plenty OF other
soldiers are available should order be dis
turbed. The summer exodus has left the
town partly empty and a number of other
persons have left, fearing trouble.
The regulations have been made more
rigid since the strikers have been commit
ting acts of vandalism. All meetings OF
persons have been prohibited and hun
dreds of persons have been arrested. These
measures have frustrated the efforts Of
the anarchist and socialist elements to
profit by the strike to soment trouble.
The tramway operatives and the gas
men are among those who have Joined the
movement. The troops have been ordered,
as far as possible, TO maintain the. public
services.
Arrangements have been made for fifty
tons OF bread to be brought daily into
Florence from outside thescity and nobody
will be allowed to purchase more than two
pounds at time The troops are slaugh-
tering animals to provide meat The water
supply Of the city is assured. Owing TO
the cutting of the gas. pipes certain por-
tions of Florence are now lighted with
torches. The cafes are closed.
The populace condemns the strike as out
Of proportion to the small question in
volved
1t is estimated that 40, 900 men are idle
In Florence. The municipal newspapers
have ceased to appear as a result Of the
| strike.
Certain workmen who were repairing the
belfry of the English church, on Minchil
street, refused to Join the strike. The strik-
/ threw petroleum over the board fences
surrounding the building and set it on fire
| The flames were extinguished before seri-
Gus damage was done. Numerous arrests
were made and the jails were filled to over
! flowing. Large numbers of prisoners have
been transferred to neighboring towns.
What is most feared in Florence is thai
the strike contagion may spread to Milan
Genoa and other Industrial centers.
GENEVA, Switzerland. Aug. 31.--AlI the
| employees Of the tramway lines OF this city
went on strike today because the manage
mont of the electrical workshops whe is OF
American, dismissed forty men employed In
the shops and offered them positions as
conductors. II Is feared the strike will
extend to the men employed on the steam
ers plying on the lake of Geneva.

MANILA, Aug. S1.-Governor Taft was
given a banquet by the American Chamber
Of Commerce OF Manila last Saturday
night.
In an address, replying to a toast, the
governor discussed the future Of the Phil
ippines. He said the United States would
retain the islands indefinitely, with the
view Of educating the Fillpinos to a state
of self government and other conditions
which would enable them to decide whether
they desired TO become Independent or be
made into a state like Canada or Austria
liza under Great Britain. Governor Taft
said he believed the relationship between
the two peoples would be continued and
that the Americans were here for the ben
leht the Filipinos. He said the Americans
'did not desire the islands for selfish pur-
poses, but promised that American capital
would get fair treatment here.
Continuing, the governor expressed his
belief that commercial interests must ulti-
mately rely upon Filipino labor, although
a temporary relaxation Of the immigration
restrictions was possible. He said the
United States civil commission would again
recommend congress to give the Philippine
islands a gold standard OF currency, as the
present huctuating standard was a disad-
vantage to everybody.

Luke e. Wright, who acted as civil gov
ernor during the absence Of Judge Taft
spoke at the Chamber Of Commerce din
ner. He EXPRESSED the opinion that the
true future OF the islands depends upor

miles west OF here last night probably was
the worst that ever happened in this section

Investigation shows that the storm which
wrought such damage % the train was
but 100 feet in, width. From ell reports
| 1t is evident that the engine escaped the

1t remained standing on the track while the
six coaches in the train were picked up
as II they were feathers and rolled over
and over down the steep embsnkment. Four
of the coaches caught the full fury of the
storm and we're carried much further than
were the other two In these four coaches
occurred all OF the deaths and the ma
jority Of the injuries. Engineer Mitchell
apparently was unaware Of the approach OF
the storm cloud but many Of the passen-
gers state that they saw a funnel-shaped
cloud approaching, but had scarcely time
to move in their seats when II struck the
train. rhe fact that the brakeman upon
the Inflated train was a new man Is prob
ably responsible for the fact that the
! baggageman escaped alive. The baggageman
was in one Of the rear coaches instructing
the brakeman how to light the lamps when
the storm struck. The baggage car was
one of those that received the storms full
force and was literally smashed to splint-

Great credit is given by the passengers tc
Conductor Kensie for his heroic work ir
rescuing the injured. Although himself
suffering from severe injuries he refused
any aid and set to work with great grit ant
heroic courage to- relieve the injured from
their perilous positions and not until the

receive medical attention for his 0wI
