THE STRIKE OVER
CHICAGO TRANSFERS VlCTORS
IN THEIR STRUGGLE
With the Packing houses-Gain All Points in
Contention Of Any Importance Termin.
alton Of the Trouble Preceded by Period
OF Strenuous Life for Police and People
Of the Windy City.

Chicago, June 5.-The transfers
strike was settled at 4 Is this morning
The men gain recognition of the union.
The scale agreed upon averages two
cents less than the men demanded. All
pickets will be withdrawn and the men
return to work at once.
More than dozen battles were
fought yesterday between rioters and
police, and the hospitals are crowded
with injured. The tiercest battle of
the day took place in the afternoon at
Sixteenth street and Michigan avenue.
The rioters stood on the viaduct and
hurled rocks at the meat wagons pass
ing underneath. The mob was the
most formidable in numbers and dar-
ing of any of the crowds that gathered
during the day. Before the mob could
be dispersed the police were compelled
to use revolvers. More than fifty shots
were fired, bullets passing over the
heads of the crowds, which finally be-
came frightened and scattered, but not
before many of the rioters and police
men had suffered serious injuries.
Driven by men covered by dust and
blood, many of them barely able from
exhaustion to hold the reigns in their
hands, thirty-six meat wagons entered
the main gates of the Union stock
yards last night amid shower of
stones, bricks, bottles and sticks. The
wagons, guarded by five police wagons
filled with blue coats and two omnibus
es crowded to the full capacity with,
policemen, were on the r.turn from Il
delivery of supplies to down town pro-
vision houses, after the tiercest day in
the strike of the packers teamsters.
Many of the drivers and officials at the
packing houses were cut and bruised
from head to foot. The police were in
even worse condition. The wagon
drivers had been working from 5 o'ocock
in the morning, driving from the stock
yards to the city business district and
back again, and had contested all the
way with mobs of strike sympathizers.
At the very entrance of the stock yards
last night, after all seeming danger had
passed, and employee of packing COM
pany was struck with base ball bat
and knocked from his seat. Many
others were struck at the same time by
a shower of stones, but the police were
too worn to offer resistance

RENTING UMBRELLAS.
Scheme Originated in Boston and IL
Taken Up by European Cities.


Taken Up by European Cities.
A Boston man has started an umbrel-
la renting scheme that is expected to
endear itself to humanity in general as
universally as have Goldfish balls or
brown beans. The Boston idea has
taken root in New York. which here
after Is to have main office with
branches in every American city of
100000 inhabitants. There will be sim
liar establishments in London. Paris
Berlin and other European cities. The
Boston idea is expected to reach to ev-
cry city where it rains. The heather
sitting in perpetual dryuess is therefore
about the only one who will escape con-
tact with the morally uplifting scheme
Of always having an umbrella to which
one is entitled. and perhaps even the
heather will rent an umbrella to keep
off the rays of the burning sun.
The new understanding company
has an authorized capital of $5,OOO.OOO.
and already has PIP umbrella dOpesi-
tories in Boston and its suburbs and
about 1916 In New York. between the
Battery and 23d street. These stands
are located in or near drug. cigar and
shoe stores, news stands and barber
shops.
The company sets up stand with
200 umbrellas and aluminium checks,
the latter about the size of a silver
half dollar. The checks are good only
until the end Of the year. no matter
when bought. With the checks Is q
pocket directory of the addresses of the
stands. The checks cost the patron 81

turns in his check and gets an umbrel-
la. The rain over, he leaves the um-
brella at any Of the company's stands
and gets a check. If the umbrella is
ruined while being used by the renter
he may turn 1t in and get either a check
or new umbrella.
The proprietors buy their umbrellas
in 10000 lots at 81 cents apiece. The
company makes its money from people
keeping the umbrellas after once taking
them out and from the loss Of checks.
The stand owners get about 10 per cent.
1t is designed to place the stands in or
near the public schools. so that parents
can be assured of umbrella protection
the year around for their children by
paying 81. Umbrella stands will be set
up adjoining baseball grounds, where
stockholders can get an umbrella with
out expense. Boys with backloads of
umbrellas will also be stationed. If the
plans are carried out. in theater lob
bies. Theater men say the scheme will
empty the lobbies quickly ON rainy
nights without expense to the house
and will add much to the comfort Of
stockholders.
A steam railroad in Boston has estab-
lished the stands at suburban stations.
The manager discovered that on rainy
days persons took the trolleys, as they
could get Off nearer their homes The
steam roads are now running the UNI

their passengers dry. who otherwise
might prefer the trolley cars.

sized in his mind by the knowledge
that il he had been captured 10y
officials of Spain, or for that manner,
almost any other nation on earth, he
would have been promptly shot, he re-
mains sullen, moody and insolent.
He continues to pose as martyr.
Notwithstanding the fact that an army
officer is with him day and night, and
that his house is carefully guarded, he
has no doubt been able to commun-
icate with enemies of the nation. All
the soldiers of Uncle Sans army can
not cope with the Oriental cunning of
Il single man of Aguinaldo's caliber.
1t might be well to add by way of
parenthesis, that the guard is kept
about Aguinaldo's resideLce as much
to protect him from assassination as
to prevent him from communicating
with friends, for the young man has
enemies among his own people, and
plenty of them.
There is degree of grim humor in
General Chaifee's determination to
send Aguinaldo to Leavenworth.
From the minute General Funston col
Jared him until the present hour, he
has harped on his desire to visit
America. SO General Chaffee de-
cded to satisfy this great longing on
the part of the young man, and
stranye to say, he arrived at this de-
cision without consulting Boston"

from his earliest infancy that the only
people who really ought to do anv
manual labor were nirgers land moor
whites, it is reasonable to suppose
that he would have thought labor de-
grading. If in addition to being
reared that way his father and grand
father and his great grandfather had
been reared the same way it wouldn't
have been very surprising if he had
despised labor and had been impreg-
mated with the idea that the black man
had no rights that he was bound to
respect.
We do not criticise the Southern
Democrat so much as welfare stating a
fact that is well known to .every we'll
posted man. Where in the United
States are the lowest wages paid In
the South where Democracy has COM
plete control.
Where are labor organizations most
discouraged and where do they flourish
least ? In the South where Repub-
lican has no more show politically or
socially, unless he keeps his mouth
shut, than lame snail would have in
a race with a Kansas jackrabbit.
The Democrats of the South rob the
/ black man and defraud him of his con-
stituional rights, not because they are
afraid of "nigger domination" or be-
cause they hate the "nigger" and
want to drive away, but because they
want to keep him in a condition of
servitude. They have no particular
objection to the proximity of the col
ored race. Why more than half the
darkies in the South have aristocratic
Democratic blood in their veins. They
don't want the negroes to leave the
South. If the negro wanted to leave
they wouldn't let him. What they want
him to do is to stay and work. They
have little If any more use for the
poor whites than they have for the ne
groes. The men who have to work at
manual labor all look alike to them.
The Southern Democrats will domi-
nate the party. They have the votes
and the brains. There may be few
Populists in Kansas who are really
chumps enough to believe that the
Democratic party of the United States
as an organization is the friend of la
Dor, but that sort of Pop ought mot
to venture out among the cattle who,
at this season of the year, are eager
for anything of green and succulent
nature.

THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..


The talk of the Populist brethren
who advise going into the Democrat
ic parry has tendency to cause a
feeling of WEAKNESS to overcome the
auditor.
If the ropulist who advises going
into the Democratic party would be
frank and say that he gives that sort
of advice because it appears to him
that it affords the only possible chance
to get mex, to the pie counter, we
would have no criticism to offer. sThat
would be an honest statement. and if
getting hold of the Offices is all there
is in politics, then it would have TO be
acknowledged that it would be good
sense. The Democrats and Populists
united can't win in Kansas, but they
probably can come nearer winning
than if they run separate tickets, so
that it might be urged that it iS prac-
teal politics to get together under the
single name of Democrat, But when
they begin to prate about the Demo-
cratic party being the party of reform
and the friend of labor and all that
sort of rot, then comes the feeling of
extreme weariness. The Democratic
party never has reformed anything.
From the very nature of things the
Democratic party can't be the friend
of labor.
AT present both the brains and bow
els of the Democratic party is in the
South. Take up the Congressional
Record and run your eye over the
speeches. You will find that the bulk
of the Democratic speeches in both
the senate and lower house are made
by Southern Democrats The leaders
of the minority in both houses are
Southern Democrats.l
In the last 30 years the Democracy
has had control OF the lower house
of congress several times and every
time there has been a Democratic house
the speaker has been Southern Dem
ocrat.
The leaders of the Democracy of the
South, in fact, all the Democrats who
cut any figure in that locality are born
and bred aristocrats. They have been
raised to believe that labor is degrad-
ing. They are proud, naughty, born
with the spirit of domination, There
as some excuse for their being that
way. If the editor of this journal
had been born a slave owner; If he
had been reared to believe that he had
the right to order any black man to
wait on him; II he had been taught

SOME D0INGS OF "THE BOSS. ).

Sundays correspondence to the
Topeka Capital from their Washing
ton correspondent contained the fol-
lowing items in regard to some.of the
things the editor of the REGISTER
finds to do in Washington:
Washington, ID. c., March l.
One of the items in the appropriation
bill for the Department of Agriculture
provides for experiments to perfect the
manufacture of syrup from sorghum
cane. Congressman-at-Large Charles
F. Scott is exceedingly anxious that
some of the experiments conducted
under this provision shall be made in
Kansas. In a communication aG-
dressed to the Secretary of Agriculture
regarding this matter, Mr.. Scott said:
There is perhaps no other crop
which can be so successfully grown in
Kansas as sorghum cane. 1t resi- lists
any ordinary drouth and yields a
good crop nearly every year
For some reason the syrup made
from it by the present process does
not command as good price in the
market as the syrup from sorghum
cane grown in other states. do not
know why this should be the case, nut
have no doubt the scientists under
your direction could find out
eff the cause should be ascertained,
and the difficulty remedied, the result
would be a very material addition to
the income of the farmers of Kansas,
and it is for this reason that strongly
urge that some of the experiments be
conducted in our state"
Some time ago the Grand Army Post
of Bartlesville, Ind. Ter, requested
the Secretary of War to send it a
cannon to be be placed in the city part
at that place. The War department
official granted the request under the
condition that the post bear the ex-
pense of transportation of the field
piece from Washington. The cannon
was received at Bartlesville, but when

which was $40. Col. Bartles of that
city, relieved the situation by volun-

understanding tina: he be reimbursed
by the organization as soon as the
money could be raised. Some con-
siderable time elapsed, during which
no effort was made to repay Mr.
Bartles, when he concluded to take
possession of the cannon and notified
the Secretary of War he would hold
the same until further directed. The
Grand Army post of Sedan, Kan,
hearing of the controversy, requested
Congressman-at.L Large Scott to ask the
Secretary of War TO transfer the
cannon to its post. Mr., Scott saw the

AGUINALDO COMING.

LeaNcnWOrlh IllucN.
Some time ago The Times stated
that arrangements were being made
for the transfer of Agunaldo from the
Philippines to the military prison at
Fort Leaveuworth. That such is true
is substantated by the following
article from the American, the leading
paper published in Manila.
$50 the Boston contingent of the
insurgent forces desire Agunaldo's S
presence in the United States. Well
they will get him.
Aguinaldo's great hankering to

Grafton of General Chairee, who does
not think it would be right TO compel
him to en.er the land he pines to see in
the dead of winter.
Aguinaldo has been white elephant
on the hands of the authorities ever
since General Funston landed him at
Malacanang, and no one has realized
the fact more distinctly than the ele-
phaut himself. He is not deep man,
nor is he capable of much concen-
trated thinking. But he is filled with
Oriental shrewdness and craftiness,
to which add huge amount of con-
ceit and double the amount Of general
cussedness found in the average man,
and the result is very dangerous
individual, providing he is allowed to
remain among a people who cannot
easily disengage from their minds the
idea that he is n chained giant.
In spite of the fact that he claims
he is amigo and willing to accept the
supreme authority of the United
States, he has repeatedly violated
every bit of confidence, consideration
aud kindness shown him. He has
been given place to live in, has car
riages, and servants at his beck and
call, in word has lived better since
his capture than he ever dreamed of
doing before. In spite of the fact that
he has been treated more as a guest OF
