Another Labor Trouble Has Decend-
ed Upon Paris.

Paris, Dec, 2s.-The strike here of
men employed in the various branches
of food supply began to assume Sc
rious proportions to-day. The bakers
assembled at the labor exchange and
adopted resolutions favoring a strike
throughout the baking trade to begin
to-day, declaring in favor of a general
strike in all the branches of the ALI
mentation trade, and announcing their
intention not to resume work until
Parliament suppressed the municipal
employment agencies.
Anticipating demonstrations, the
military and police took elaborate pre-
cautions.
The bakers this afternoon attempted
to make manifestation In front of the
Luxembourg palace, where the Senate
was sitting, but 500 mounted police
took possession of the surrounding
streets, and the project of police, M.
Lepine, personally conducted a rigid
suppression of the disorder. The ac-
ton of the police completely broke up
the demonstration.
The determination of the police to
prevent street demonstrations has had
the effect of checking the strike and
leads to the belief that 1t will not
spread. Twenty-four arrests were
made

REYES IS TRYING TO
RESTRAIN COLOMBIA.
Says War With Panama Means War
With United States.


Washington, Dec. 23.-"War on Pana-
ma means war with the URited States"
is the substance of cablegrams which
Gen. Rafael Reyes, the Colombian min
lister, is sending to the Bogota govern
ment and to his more influential fol-
lowers throughout Colombia.
Realizing the gravity of the situation.
Gen. Reyes is endeavoring to bring the
Colombian people face to face with the
conditions here. He is convinced that
the United States will not permit a
Colombian army to land within the ter
ritory of Panama.
Gen. Reyes has not been in any
hurry to complete his mission in Wash
ington, thinking that in the meantime
the war feeling in Colombia would sub
side. Dispatches. however, which he
has received from President Marco
quin and other influential CoIombians
nave caused him to hasten his work
and 1t is his present intention to re-.
turn to Colombia and assume personal
command of the army as soon as he
mas filed his statement at the State
Department.
In Colombian quarters II is pointed
out that unless Gen. Reyes soon re-
turns the war party in Bogota will
gain the upper hand, and his hitherto
predominant influence there will be se-

Liverymen and Undertakers Will
Run on the "Open shop" Principle.
Chicago, Dec. 23.-The struggle be-
tween the liverymen's and undertakers'
associations and the livery drivers

ais is to be a fight to the finish, all
efforts looking to settlement of the
strike by Cancellation having been aban-
doned tonight.
At meeting tonight of the en-
ployers affected by the strike it Vas
decided to open for business tomorrow
morning on the open shop" principle
and employ union or non-union men.
Before this decision was reached, ar
rangements were made to petition one
of the Circuit Court judges the first
thing tomorrow morning for an in
junction restraining the strikers from
interfering with the business of the
employers.
In anticipation of opposition by the
union men, the employers tonight call
ed upon Chief of Police O'Neill for
further police protection against vio-
lence and picketing. In reply Chief
O'Neill said: 1.-THE police have been
ordered to extend you the utmost pro-
lection in carrying on funerals. If you
experience the slightest trouble call up
the 1aa rest notice station and If that
does not help, call me up"
Chief ONeill's plan is to have police
men accompany all funerals in cabs.

WILL ISSUE BONDS
TO BUY FRIARS' LANDS.
Philippine Securities to the Amount
of $1,000, 900 to BE Sold.


of $7,OOO,OOO to BE Sold.
I Washington. Dec. 23.-President
Roosevelt and Secretaries Root and
Shaw had an extended conference to-
day regarding the issue of bonds for
the raising of money with which to
pay for the friar lands in the Philip
pines Secretary Root is in receipt Of
a cablegram from Gov. Taft, announc-
ing that the contracts for the purchase
of the lands were signed yesterday
afternoon. The provision for payment,
Governor Taft indicates, is that the
government shall use due diligence in
the necessary surveys, examination of
title and sale of bonds and shall con-
summate the purchase within the
period not exceeding six months from
the date of contract.
Unless new surveys shall differ
materially from the Villegas survey,
the exact amount OF the purchase
price of the lands is $7,739, 7S4. The
lands to be purchased aggregate $4,000
acres.
Gov. Taft's cablegram concludes as
follows:
LAS soon as our recommendation is
received will pass act reciting making
of contract and authorize you to issue
bonds much the same form as law
authorizing issue of certificates of in
debtedness."
At the conference to-day 1t was de-
termined to authorize the issue of ST.
900, 900 of per cent. Philippine bonds,
redeemable after ten and within thirty
years.
They will be offered for sale early
in January. An act OF the last Con-
gress provided for the issue of such
bonds. They will be accepted by the
government as security for the de-
posit of public funds.
Some details concerning the issue of
the bonds yet have to be worked out,
but no doubt is expressed that a ready
market for them will be found in this
country. During the past seven months
an aggregate of $4,000, 900 of per cent.
Philippine bonds have been issued and
fioated in the United States In patches
of $4,000 900 each. More than half of
these bonds are now on deposit with
the government as security for public
money. Bonds previously issued were
sold on terms regarded as favorable
900 commanding a figure above par.
1t is believed that the forthcoming
issue will bring good price.
