ISSUE HARDLY In DOUBT
Catholic Church Should Win Dyer
Piano With Ease.

With but few days remaining before
the Dyer piano closes, victory is practi-
cally conceded to the Catholic church.
Since overcoming the lead of the Metho-
dist church they have steadily increased
their advantage and are now IN the van
by 1920 votes. Unless their COMPETE
tors have very considerable amount of
reserve ammunition, they should have
no difficulty in winning with ease and
will carry off the consolation prize.
The contest will close promptly at l
o'clock next Saturday. September 5th,
and Auditor Vogel will announce the re-
suit as soon after that hour as possible.
Of late interest in the race between the
two leading contestants has not been
very keen and it will be relief to the
merchants interested when the instrument
is awarded. The count last week gave
tie following standings:

Angry Feline Inflicts Wound.

Mrs. r. G. Mueller received a Sc

give one of her pet cats to an acquaint-
ance but the feline did not take kindly
to the idea. AS he was being placed
in bag he suddenly turned upon Mrs.
Mueller and sank his teeth into her
left hand. The bite was very painful
and within short time Inflammation
set in, the hand and arm becoming
greatly swollen. For a time it was
feared that tetanus might develop but
DR.. Jos. 81. Vogel, who has the case,
states that there is little danger of this
complication.

STRIKERS ARE LOSING.
Marine Engineers Show Weakness at
Norfolk-Boats Operating.

NORFOLK, Va, June lett looks today
as though the backbone of the marine en-
gineers strike in this district is broken in
favor to large extent, of the steamboat
and tug owners
The Old Dominion Steamship Company is
now operating several of its bay and river
steamers that have heretofore been tied up,
and the company has gotten engineers at
the old scale of wages. Other boats now
tied up WILL the Old Dominion officials
state, remain out of commission until the
engineers choose to return to work
If the engineers refuse finally to return
at the old scale the larger boats that have
been running on the southern routes of the
company will be sent to New York. and
smaller boats, with less all-round expenses
will be substituted.
The tugs of the Seaboard Air Line rail-
way heretofore tied up went out today with
their old engineers. who are reported in
the marine district to be working at the old
scale. The strikers have stopped talking
for publication. and this is taken as a
strong sign of weakness.

that there will be revision of the tariff

WOODMEN IN SESSION
INDIANAPOLIS GREETS THE FIT
TENTH CONVENTION.
Reports Show Gains in All Quarters
and Membership of More Than
Half Million.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, June 16.-The thir-
teenth session of the head camp of the Mod
ern Woodmen of America opened in
Tomlinson Hall this morning at 10 o'clock.
Mayor Bookwalter and Auditor of State
Herrick welcomed the delegates. The re-
Spouse was made by Lieutenant Governor
w. A. Northcott of Illinois, head consul of
the organization. The convention then got
down to business.
The report of Major c. w. Halves, the
head clerk, for the two years January l,
1901, to December 81, 1902, shows that on
the latter date the Woodmen had 664, 166
beneficial members carrying a total insur-
ance of 81. 161, 2S5, eco. The net gain was
125,3OS members and the net gain in insur-
ance $34S, 0S1 500. There also a net
gain of 1859 local camps, the total being
1854 in good standing December 81,
1902. During the term $500 death claims
were paid, the disbursements aggregating
$40, 1876, 435.
On January 1, 1903, there was balance
of S903,4S1 in the benefit fund and a bal
fund.
The per capita expense of management
for the year 1901 was "A cents, and for the
year 1902, SO cents.
AT the last national convention deter
mined effort was made to secure the adrnis-
sion to the socety's jurisdiction of several
large cities, the society's law barring all
cities having 100000 more population.
The committee submits an amendent to the
Woodmen law providing that the executive
council may in it's discretion establish and
maintain local camps in any part of the
excepted cities, if upon investigation it
finds it safe and desirable territory.
The committee also recommends that the
basis of representation be left as at pres
ent-one delegate for each 1909 members
major fraction-but that in not case shall
there be more than 325 delegates elected
to the national convention.
Touching on the admission of large cities
to the Woodmen jurisdiction, the head con-
sui says:
THE chief objection to the admission Of
large cities heretofore has been the difficult
ty in selecting the proper risks. There is
question but there thousands of
splendid risks in these cities whose mem
bership would be of great advantage. /
fully believe that under the direction of
the executive council means could be pro-
vided for the proper selection"
Head Consul Northcott gives over large
part of his report to the question of rate
readjustment, and submits several tables of
rates for the consideration of the con-
vention.

BALLOTING IN BERLIN.
Voters Sent From Strong to Weak Dis
tricts

BERLIN, June 16-The polling in the
reichstag elections began at 10 o'cIock this
morning and proceeded quickly under the
new, modified Australian ballot law, the
electors rarely staying in the booth longer
than a quarter of a minute.
In Berlin the balloting was not accom-
panied by the least disorder, even in the
so-called slum precincts
All the political parties resorted> to the
election tactics, often practiced in Ger
many, of sending voters from the strong
districts. where they are not needed, to the
doubtful ones. The law permits this.
Travellers, for instance arriving at a
town the day before election can vote there
on showing by proper credentials that they
are authorized to vote in the precinct where
they are permanently resident. This is for
the convenience of commercial and other
travellers.
AS too free use of this privilege
causes elections in some cases to be de-
clared invalid by the reichstag and new
elections ordered, the common practice now
is to colonize voters in doubtful districts
two or three weeks before the election, so
that they can get the police lists of
voters that long in advance, though the
law really only requires one days residence
The socialists have. it is alleged, sent out
some thousands of colonists from their
Berlin strongholds to uncertain constituent

Heaviest Vote Late.

The polls close at pm. The heaviest
vote is expected between and o'clock
as the workingmen of most of the factories
and trades have arranged with their en-
ployers to shut down at D.
The count in some districts will be fin
tshed at 10 pm, and the judges must fin
ish the count by o'clock the next morning
and send in the returns to the minister of
the interior. Consequently complete re-
turns will be accessible in Berlin soon after
o'clock but it is expected that two-fifths
of the constituencies will have to reballot
because the votes have been distributed
among three more candidates, in which
case, if no one gets a majority, the two can
didates receiving the highest number of
votes are balloted for a second time.
