SONS OF THE REVOLUTION.
A Banquet Given by the Illinois Branch
ut Chicago-The President Gen.
erals Speech.

Chicago, June 6.-Edwin Warfeld,
Of Maryland, president general Of
the National Society Of the Sons Of
the American Revolution, was the
principal speaker at a reception and
banquet given by the Illinois branch
of the society last night at the Chi.
cago Athletic club. In response to
toast to the national society and his
native state, Maryland, Mr.. Warfeld
referred to the splendid work the
society is doing for the cause Of
patriotism. He said It is not only
perpetuating the memory Of the men
who by their services and sacrifices
during the war Of the revolution
achieved the independence of the
American people, but it is inspiring
our citizens with q reverence and re-
gard for the principles of the govern
ment founded by the heroes Of that
immortal struggle for freedom. Re-
ferring to Maryland, he spoke Of her
splendid record in the revolutionary
period, and claimed that she always
responded to the call of duty and
patriotism; that her statesmen were
able, her soldiers and sailors brave.
He referred especially to Admiral
Schley as the hero of Santiago.

A STRIKE SETTLED.
Packers and Their Teamsters Come
to an Agreement.
MEN START DRIVING WAGONS TO-DAY
A Report That Packers May ignore Proml-
nsnt Strikers to BE Discussed at .
Confcrencs-A Driver Severely Beaten
and His Wagon Demolished.

Chicago, June 6.-Quiet reigned in
the turbulent stock yards district
yesterday, as a result of the settle
ment OF the meat teamsters' strike.
Soon after the agreement--which is
a compromise-was ratified by the
men, a report, coming from some
source, spread that the packers had
determined to take back only team
sters who had not been active in
the strike. That the companies
would exercise a choice in taking
their former teamsters seemed not
to have occurred to the men before,
and on investigation it was found
that several workmen employed in
the yards had recently been dis
charged. These men declare that
they have been singled out because
they were strong union men and
strike sympathizers. This is denied
BY the packers, but the statements
Of the discharged men are being
carefully investigated.
Had the compromise agreement not
been effected, this would have been
a red letter day in the strike, as the
packers had planned to send wagon
train of 135 loads Of meat into the
heart of the city yesterday morning.
Instead Of another day Of rioting and
broken hands there was peace and
the ripple of laughter as the two
sides Of the controversy good
naturedly discussed the ending Of
the trouble. When the members of
the conference separated yesterday
morning the strike was virtually at
an end, but the agreement of the
committeeman had to be ratified by
the packers and the teamsters. This
caused some further delay and II
was not until yesterday evening that
all arrangements had been COM
pleted for the strikers to return to
work to-day. Meanwhile the only
teams called for were to deliver meat
needed.
The men who have been discharged
are members of the Stock Yards En-
ployes' union. Late last night a
conference between Mr.. Donnelly and
A. W. Leonard, superintendent of the
Union Stock Yards Transit company,
was arranged. Mr.. Leonard will be
asked to reinstate the men who have
been discharged and, unless he con-
sents to do so, 1t is said that the g.
300 butchers employed in the differ
mt packing plants will be called out
IN strike.
Apparently ignorant Of the strike |
settlement, men sympathizing with

CUBA SUGAR LANDS.
Truman q. Palmer Testifies Before the
Senate Committee on Cuban Relations
Many Estates owned BY Americans

Washington, June 6.-Truman G..
Palmer, Of Chicago, was q witness
yesterday before the senate commit
tee on Cuban relations. For the
past four years Mr.. Palmer has been
engaged in the promotion Of beet su-
gar interests. He gave list Of II
American corporations which, be
said, have 5sS,727 acres in sugar-pro-
ducing lands in Cuba with an annual
capacity Of 255,425 tons. OF these
II companies ten have on Ale war
claims against the government Of the
United States aggregating s9,669,954.
The largest of these claims, for ST.
1883, was filed by the Constancio
Sugar company with an estate Of 81
900 acres and an annual capacity Of
$1,000 tons.
Mr.. Palmer also presented a list
Of estates owned by individuals who
are citizens Of the United States and
who reside in the United States, but
most Of whom are either of Cuban
or American birth. This list in
cluded Al estates Of 368,7s6 acres,
with an average sugar-producing ca
pacity Of 394,49 tons. OF these Al
estates ,5 fled war claims against
the government Of the United States
aggregating $13,64s,544. Mr.. Palmer
deduced from the figures given in
this connection that only 30 per cent.
OF the product was supplied by farm
ers who do not own their own facto-
ries.
When Senator Platt asked what
had induced witness to manifest so
great an interest in the legisla Jon
he replied: Because l be-
lieve that II this tariff reduction leg
islation fails l shall have no difficulty
In securing the means Of building at
least one beet sugar factory a year"

HIGH WATERS IN KANSAS
Many Acres Of Corn Flooded sad Small
Stock Drowned by the Floods
Trains Tied Up

Topeka, Kan, June 6.-The high
water in Kansas rivers shows small
signs of subsiding. The Arkansas
river is yet very high and much dam
age to property has resulted. It is
thought, however, that the stream
has reached its highest point and
that fall may be expected within
the next few hours. The Cotton
wood and Neosho rivers in Lyon
county are far above the high water
mark. The water has overfowed the
banks to such an extent as to ruin
many acres Of corn and drowning
much small stock on the farms. A
washout on the Santa Fe near En-
poria yesterday afternoon tied up
all the trains on the main line. On
the Argentine-Emporia cutoff the
conditions are such that no trains
at all can be run.

TOM RICHARDSON ELECTED
SECRETARY OF THE PROGRESSIVE
UNION OF NEW ORLEANS.
His Splendid Ability Calls Him to a
Wider Field of USE
fulness.
fspecial 10 The poatl

New Orleans La, January 25.-Tom
Richardson of Houston was tonight uuani-
mously elected secretary and manager OF
the Progressive Union of New Orleans.
4 ~
Mr.. Richardson is at present in Kansas
and his intention In reference to the above
can not be nscertained
The election OF Mr.. Richardson to this
very important position is splendid recog-
rition Of his ability. lie is one OF the
best workers 10 his line that this country
has ever developed.
As a successful promoter OF big public
enterprises he has no equal. he Is an
energetic and tlreless worker and does not
know what failure means In anything that
he undertakes.
He was recently elected secretary Of the
Texas commission for the st. Louis expo
sition, but should he accept the position Of
secretary of the Progressive Union OF New
Orleans be will likely have 20 give up his
position as secretary Of the Texas com
mission.
The Progressive Union Of New Orleans is
what the Business League Is to Houston,
more extended and more important in It's
scope, in that proportion as New Orleans
Is a larger and more important city than
Houston.
The many friends Of Mr. Richardson in
Houston have cause to congratulate him
upon his election 10 such an important
and responsible position, and his accept
snce viii mean a distinctive loss TO Texas.
