Chicago, Aug. 12.-Oficers Timothy
Devine and Charles 7. Pennell, pa
trolmen, were killed here today in a
revolver battle with what is supposed
to have been a gang of thugs. Much
mystery surrounds the shooting for
both men died before an adequate ac-
count of the affair could be obtained.
Deviue died in the ambulance on the
way to the hospital and the other
man died on the operating table. The
fight occurred just before dawn near
Jackson boulevard and Ashland ave
nue., in the aristocratic section of the
west side. The fusilade of shots
aroused the neighborhood. Citizens
who heard the dying policemen groan
hurried to their assistance and saw
men running away. Officer Pennell
meanwhile had staggered a hundred
feet to a patrol box and sent in an
alarm. The police soc had six men
in custody. Before Pennell died he
vas able to gasp out a few words,

men.

Be Good.

Atlantic City, N. j., Aug. 12.-Geo.
Llewellyn of the Citizens Alliance of
Wilkesbarre, called upon Senator
Quay here and asked him to use his
good offices in an endeavor to end the
strike of the antracite coal miners.
Senator Quay, after his talk with Mr..
Llewellyn, said:
I am ready to do anything in my
power to bring about a settlement of
the strike in the anthracite region"
The senator said he deeply regret
ted the present difficulties and that he
was willing to meet the miners and
operators, or both, if it would aid in
restoring industrial peace. Any sug-
%gestions, he said, that may be made
by Chairman Llewellyn will be
promptly taken under consideration.

Session Of Congress.

Washington, Aug. 12.-Advices re-
ceiced here indicate that President
Roosevelt will call the senate in ex-
t%raordinary session early in Novem-
Der. Ever since it became evident
that nothing would be accomplished
as to reciprocity with Cuba at the
recent session of congress, runners
of a more or less definite nature have
been in circulation that the president
would call an extra session either of
the entire congress to enact Cuban
reciprocity legislation, or Of the SEN
ate to ratify if possible a reciprocal
treaty with Cuba. During the past
week it has been stated that it was
the purpose of President Roosevelt to
call a special session Of the senate
early in September. 1t can be stated
on authority that he has nc such in
tention.
His time and that of many mem
bers of both political parties will be
occupied during September and Octo-
Der. 1t is understood to be the belief
of the president that a session held
for the purpose of ratifying a reci-
procity treaty with Cuba would be
much more likely to be fruitful Of re-
suits If held after the November cleo
lions than if held before. 1t is assur-
ed that the question of relations with
Cuba will enter largely into the ap-
preaching campaign and it is stated
that the president feels the demo-
Gratis will be less likely to offer seri-
Gus opposition to a reciprocity treaty
after the election than they would be-
fore that time. A treaty with Cuba
practically has been prepared. It re-
quires only the finishing touches and
the signatures of Minister Quesada
and Secretary Hay to make it ready
for presentation to the senate. No
definite date, it is understood, has
been fixed upon for the meeting of
the session in November, but that it
will be soon after the elections, it is
reasonably certain. The president, it
is said, hopes to have the reciprocity
question cleared away entirely be-
fore the regular session Of congress.
