ALL WORK TO BE TIED UP
STRIKE ORDERED BY BUCHANAN
AGAINST THE IRON LEAGUE.
All Employees Of Contractors Who
Hold Membership I'm the New York
Organization Must Quit.

NEW YORK. Nov. president Frank
Buchanan of the Bridge and Structural
Iron Workers of America has ordered a
strike the country over on all contracts
held by the Iron League of New York.
Forty thousand men 80 the building trade
and go buildings under construction are
affected by his order. Outside OF New York
the contracts held by Members of the Iron
League are few. Only a few buildings in
Philadelphia. P~ittsburg and st. Louis will
be affected. Mr.. Buchanan claimed to-day
that 5000 men will walk out in New York,
and that 10000 building mechanics will be
thrown out Of work by their action.
After Sam Parks had tied the contracts
OF the Iron League for months last spring
the employers formed a housesmith's union
of their own from members Of Parks's
union and ironworkers from out OF town
who were willing to sign the arbitration
agreement. The union now has a member
ship of 5000. TIL league claims it has more
men than it actually has work for.
Conferences between President Buchanan
and a joint committee of ironworkers and
the Iron League have been in progress this
week. Concessions had been made on both
sides, but the split came yesterday when
the ironworkers refused to receive into
local union No. 2 the new organization or
hOuSeSmithS as a whole.

LONDON, Nov. Z.-Some surprise IS ex-
pressed In official quarters at the quick &C
ton taken by the Washington government
In announcing its attitude regarding the new
republic of Panama, which. though not &C
cepted as a formal recognition, is universal
~ taken as tantamount thereto. Particular
interest is attached to Secretary of State
Hays expression that Panama has accom-
plished' its independence. The view taken,
as expressed by a British officer to a repre-
sentative of the Associated Press Is: BE
fore anything formal can be done, the people
of Panama must vote to separate them
selves from their former allegiance and must
prove their ability to maintain, or rather
the inability of the Colombian government
to upset their government. Colombia could
then have no protest, recognized by moral
or international law, against the powers of
the world recognizing Panama formally. OF
course, If the United States sends a note to
the powers. intimating its belief that Pana-
ma has practically established, or as Secre-
tary Hay says, accomplished" its indie
pendence, and expresses the intention of up
holding Panama I'm that condition., there is
not the slightest doubt that every power
will formally recognize what would then be
the obvious independence of that state

SAM PARKs'S WARNING.
Says He Is the Victim Of q Practice
Tint should BE stopped.

NEW YORK, Nov. 7.-After he left his
cell here to begin serving his sentence of
two years in Sing Sing Prison for extor-
ton Of money from employers, Samuel
Parks. walking delegate of the local House
smiths and Bridgemen's Union, called about
him a number OF newspaper men to bid
them farewell. In so doing he made the fol-
lowing statement: 1T has taken only a
little more than seven years to get me here.
1t has been a hard fght and I've lost. I'll
be forgitten in less than a year except by
some of the boys who thought there was
some good in me and / am sorry for it.
Every laboring man in this country should
remember me for years to come. 1t should
be a warning to them. I'm the victim Of
a custom that is older than 1 am and that
is the habit of having money transactions
with employers. That put me here.
THE salvation of the unions lies in stop
ping that practice at once. They must give
up fines, waiting time, back pay for strikes
and everything like that. That's the loop
hole through which this grating as they
call 1t creeps In. The employers never
leave any tracks. 1 could name 100 en-
ployers here who have made a practice of
using labor unions against competitors. l
know plenty OF employers who have made
fortunes by the use of money, buying
young fellows who never made more than
a couple of dollars a day, but who have
been in authority in their unions"

NO SHOW
Minneapolis Cannot Secure Repub-
Ifcan National Convention.
MINNEAPOLIS Tribune.

Minneapolis Tribune.
Minneapolis hasn't one chance in a thou
sand for getting the Republican national
convention next year. said Thomas II.
Shevlin, national committeeman from Min
neSota, yesterday.
Mr.. Shevlin has been in the northern part
of the State for several days, inspecting
his mill properties. and knew nothing about
the mention of Minneapolis as a possible
The idea struck him as prepOstrous, and al
this late day he did not think anything
could be done, even if the business men OF
the city were a unit in asking for the con-
vention.
The national committee will meet in
Washington on Dec. 9 for the purpose OF
selecting the time and place for holding the
next convention. Several cities are making
an active canvass for the honor, among
them Chicago, st. Louis, Detroit and Pitts
burg. Mr.. Shevlin says that he personally
prefers Chicago. That city is so big. has SC
many hotels and other convention conven-
fences that are ready all the time, and is
so centrally located that other cities must
have extraordinary advantages to COM
pete with Chicago. St. Louis will be in
the thick of its exposition next year and IL
is not thought that a national convention
could be taken care OF satisfactorily.
Next to Chicago MIR. Shevlin prefers Pitts
burg as the convention city. II know little
about politics, however" commented Mr..
Shevlin. Il have been too busy TO pay much
attention 10 those matters. There is SO
little to be done in national politics just now
that / have devoted most of my time TO pri-
vate affairs. No: / don't think Minneapolis
has one chance in a thousand for securing
the convention"

SINFUL MRS. MOSQUITO.
of Teachers Learn OF q
Family with No Bad Males.
Norristown (Pa.) Special.

&NOTIlStOWn ifd.b Specldl-
It's the wicked female mosquito, never
the male, that so frequently and persistent
ly stings mankind, and spreads malaria and
profanity throughout many parts of an af-
fiicted world. This fact came out In the
process of instructing over half a thousand
schoolma'ms in their closing institute here
to-day, and not one OF them raised her voice
in protest against the imputation thus put
upon the feminine gender, plural number!
Professor Schumacher, of the West Ches-
ter State Normal School, was the orator of
the hour, and his topic was: "A Diminutive
Musician, the Mosquito"
Starting out with a description of the
origin of the pesky insect in stagnant
water, the professor also told of it's fitting
time-the period when the pest begins to
sing and bite, and then remarked that this
was the exclusive role Of Miss or Mrs
Mosquito. Nine hundred times a minute her
wings fan the air, for she has wings, like
other creatures feminine; and 800 times a
minute men mistake the buzzing wings for
a voice, a note of warning and of danger.
But not all these mezzo-soprani have a
taste for human blood-only about one in
lis an antidote for mosquito bite, if used
Immediately after the insect has sunken
her snout into your flesh"
The new familiar theory that the mosquito
is the carrier, II not the propagation, OF
malaria was proven by statistics, and which
tests the professor recited to the teachers,
and he explained the theory, in substance,
thus: Malaria Is due to the fact that in
the red corpuscles of the blood of man-and
woman-exists a little animal, not a
microbe. Miss or Mrs. Mosquito comes
along, takes a drink of this infected blood
goes away, and after three days there is
an evolution within the insect that impreg-
mates it's future bite with malarial germs.
Between the three-day interval, however,
the bite of the insect is not dangerous as a
diSease-bearer.
"An mosquitoes are not notwithstanding
The one that stands on her head, as 1t were,
while she vengefully bores into your flesh,
iS tho mQlarial kind. the one that Stands
parallel to your person, or on her feet, is
not q disease-bearer."

TO TAKE THE FIELD
COLORADO TROOPS HAVE BEEN Or
DERED TO PREPARE FOR WAR.
Mining at the Bottom of
the Imperative Order-TroubIe
Is Feared.

DENVER, Col, Nov. 7.-Orders have been
issued by Adjutant General Bell to every
organization of the Colorado National Guard
not now in Cripple Creek to be in readiness
to take the field. 1t had been planned to
reopen the mines at Telluride next Monday
under military protection. but in view Of
the impending strike of coal miners in the
Telluride mine managers decided to defer
action. 1t is presumed the troops are to be
held in readiness to proceed to coal camps
where miners will go on strike next Monday
under orders from the national executive
officers Of the United Mine Workers Of
America
Adjutant General Bell has announced his
intention of recruiting the National Guard
up to 5000 men. News from Trinidad is
that the exodus of miners to other coal
fields has set in. A number have purchased
tickets to points in Texas, Indian Territory,
Missouri and Illinois. Many Italians and
Austrains will leave for Europe. The opera
tors nave issued instructions to their miners
to bring their tools out of the workings at
quitting time tonight. Those who do not
go back to work Monday will be treated as
strikers. 1t is said the Mine Workers Asso-
citation has large sums of money deposited
here for strike purposes. All unions in the
northern fields will hold meetings and by
referendum vote adopt or reject the schedule
submitted by the operators at the confer
ence just closed. The schedule is a con-
cession on the part of the operators and
equivalent TO a raise of from j TO 10 per
cent. over the present scale. The eight
hour question was we'll thrashed in the
conference, the operators insisting that they
cannot grant eight hours until such time as
the remainder of Colorado is on an eight
hour basis.
TELLURIDE, Col, Nov. All union
men working at the Liberty Bell mine were
called out on strike by the miners union
on the ground that the company. owning
the property is discriminating against union
men. All the large mines in the Telluride
district are now closed.

DIPLOMATIC AGENT NAMED.
Mr. Philippe Bunau-variIIa to Repre-
sent the New Republic.

PANAMA, Nov. IN. Philippe Bunau-
Varilla has been appointed diplomatic
agent of the republic of Panama at Wash
ington. He is one Of the financial agents
of the Panama Canal Company. His first
official act was to officially notify the juflta
that the United States has recognized the
de facto government of the republic of
Panama. The news has caused great re-
joicing here, and was telegraphed through
out the country. Preparations are being
made to celebrate the event with great en-
thusiasm: NJ: Philippe Bunau-varilla is
now In New York.
On the most trustworthy authority the
correspondent is authorized to say that the
Republic of Panama will assume the Colom-
bian governments canal obligations and
that arrangements with that end in view are
already making.
General Tovar and his staff. who were
unable to catch the royal mail steamer
O~rinoco, which sailed from Colon on Thurs
day for Cartagena, will. with the troops
commanded by General Tovar, leave Colon
for B~arranquilla probably tomorrow.
News from the interior provinces is to the
inequalities and are joining the independ-
ence movement.
The news of the recognition of the indie
pendence of the republic of Panama, cabled
this morning by NJ. Bunau Varilla, the dip
lomatic agent at Washington Of the repub-
lie, spread like lightning throughout the
town, and the heavy downfall of rain
which prevailed could not dampen the en-
thusiasm which dominated the
over the announcement. The day was de-
clared a holiday, and even the foreigners
in Panama Joined in the jubilation. All the
public and private buildings were adorned
with the national colors. and crowds head
ed by bands playing the national anthems
OF the republic and of the United States
paraded the streets. When the United
States legation was reached the enthusi-
asm and excitement We're so great that peo-
pie filled the air with wild cries for the re-
public of Panama, the United States. the
Agent Bunau Varilla- All kinds of popular
entertainments are preparing on an extern
sive scale. Despite the enthusiasm good
order prevailed throughout the day, and
this is taken as a demonstration of the fact
that the people of the isthmus appreciate
their status as a separate nation.

Crossed Channel in Kite Boat.

LONDON. Nov. 7.-After several fall
ures, f. Cody to-day succeeded in cross
ing the channel in his kite boat. He left
Calais at IL O'Clock last night and reached
Dover thirteen hours later. He encountered
much shipping and had some narrow es-
capes.
Cody had previously made two unsuccess-
full attempts TO cross the channel from
Dover to Calais in a collapsible boat drawn
by a kite, on Oct. 10 and Nov. 4 respectively.
The kite he employed was somewhat on the
principle of a box kite and was capa-
BILE of lifting several tons. The boat
weighed four tons and was decked with
canvas. 1t resembled a miniature submar-
inc boat. 1t combined steering gear, which
manipulated the kite and the boats rudder
together.

GREAT OYSTER DEMAND.

Milwaukee Sentinel.

Milwaukee Sentinel.
People are consuming more oysters this
year than ever before" remarked Charles
a. Higgins yesterday, and sales have been
at least one-sixth larger than they were
last year. Good times, good stock and fair
ly cool weather is responsible for this con-
dition, 1 should say.
1.-THE supply OF oysters does not come
from Baltimore any more. The Monu-
mental City may be said to be out Of the
market at the present time. The trade has
shifted over TO Connecticut, and all the
oysters received in Milwaukee except the
blue points now come from New Haven.
There are 1900 gallons of the Connecti-
cut oysters being shipped into Milwaukee
daily. but not more than one-tenth is con-
sumed in the city. You see, we are one Of
the largest shipping points for the bivalves
in the country, the tributary territory being
Wisconsin, northern Illinois, northern Iowa,
South Dakota, Minnesota and the northern
peninsula OF Michigan.
80 far as lake fish are concerned, I can
only say that they are fast becoming a
luxury instead of a cheap food. The catch
is much smaller and prices are higher
While L don't believe the lake fish will ever
be annihilated, / believe that unless the
States bordering the great lakes take some
united action or the general government
takes the matter up and passes and en-
forces laws to protect them, they will soon
become so scarce and dear thai none but
the wealthy people will be able TO eat them.
I'VE now get our whitehsh from Lake SUI
perior. Lake Of the Woods and the lakes up
in Canada. To give you an idea of the de-
crease IN lake HSn, let me say that q year
ago last week l handled 1900 pounds of
lake trout alone, while this year, with a de-
mand fully as good, L could only obtain
5000 pounds.
There is not much change in ocean fish.
The catch of mackerel has been light, and
Norwegian bloaters were never so scare as
at the present time. L paid $42 a barrel for
them right off the schooner last week. They
are brought over TO this country by Nor
wegian fishermen.
I'VE are shut OFF entirely from the game
trade, the law preventing us from selling
proach to this at the present time is tame
pigeons, for which there is a fairly good
demand. The hotels are able to get game
birds i'm the open market in Chicago. You
can find them displayed down there in the
open market. but il seems TO be the policy
OF the Wisconsin Legislature to drive every
thing possible away from Milwaukee. We
sell them. but we are not and there is no
use trying"
