ANTARCTIC EVAPORATION.
Gauss Arrives at sIm0nstown, Cape
 COIony-A New Land.


 Simonstown. Cape Colony, June g. - The German Antarctic steamer Gauss arrived here this morning and will re- main about three weeks to refit and then will proceed homewards. The ves- sel shows outward signs of her exper- fences in the ice. The expedition has been a great success and not a single casualty occurred among those on board throughout her stay in the Antarctic re- gions.
 After sailing from Cape Town Decem- Der ', 1901, the Gauss called at Kergue- len island, where a party was landed. The vessel reached floating ice Febru- ary IA, 1902, and was ice bound on Feb- ruary P in latitude 66:S0 and west longi- tude 90. The expedition discovered a new land. which they named Emperor William II land. It was covered with ice with the exception of an inactive volcano. The expedition was icebound here for almost year, the ship being fast in pack ice. The crew went into winter quarters, and many scientific in- vestigations were carried out during this period. Several expeditions with NO3o oAAA oiCA5ANs 4GlI l1EG IMlllIGI ters, but found the season too advanced and their progress was hampered by fearful snowstorms and darkness. The Gauss made her way out Of the ice with nothward flowing currents, and leaving the ice April of this year she proceeded to Durban, passing Kergue- Ian island and callding at St. Paul and New Amsterdam islands.

LOCKOUT ENDED.
Important Action of New York Elm
 pIoyers' Associations.

New York. June 9.--The executive committee of the Lumber Trades asso- citation, the Association of Dealers in Masons' Building materials and the New York Truck Owners association decided to-day. after conference with the committee of the United Board of Building Trades, who yesterday left the fusal to expel the Material Drivers union, to open their yards for the deliv- cry of material tomorrow. This ends the lockout which the material dealers decided upon with view of putting an end to the building strike and the strike of the material drivers.
 The revolters from the board of build ing trades have reorganized and signed an agreement. It recites the differ ences which have existed and concludes ics, which was accepted by the mater ial dealers. This proposal declares that the organizations will not interfere with the free use of any supplies delivered by any members of the dealers associa- tions, no matter what conditions, or by whom they may be made, handled or de- livered, and that they will not take any part in any trouble originating with the material drivers or material handlers, or any other unskilled labor.

NOT AN ELELTION BET.
Governor of Kansas Marrtes but Not
 Because of n Wager


 Because of n Wager
 Kansas City. Mo-, June 9.-Willis J. Bailey, governor of Kansas, and Mrs. Ida B. Weed were married in the First Congregational church in this city this evening. Immediately after the cere- mony Governor and Mrs. Bailey left for Topeka It had been Governor Baileys intention to make trip to his old home in Illinois, but this was postponed be- Ecause of pressing business relating to the flood.
 An interesting incident of Governor Bailey's recent campaign was story that he had promised to marry if elect ed governor. After his election he was the recipient of letters from women in all parts of the country offering them- selves in marriage. Governor Bailey said to-day: Long before the election Mrs Weed and I were engaged to be married. I never made promise with any one that I would take wife if were elected governor of Kansas. That was story started by some of my Kansas friends. They meant it in 8 good-natured way, but really had the joke on them"

Barriers Give May and Waters Sweep
 Over City.
 St. Louis, June 10.-Word was receiv- ed here at 2:1O o'clock this morning that the water is rushing into East St. Louis from the south side in torrent. and people are fleeing for their lives. The heavy pressure that tore away the Illi- nois Central embankment swept other barriers aside and flowed on in a tor rent into the southern portion of the city. There is no means of communi- cation except by telephone, and the ex- citement is so great that little can be learned. One report has it that the en- tire city is being flooded, but it cannot be confirmed.

American Zionist Convention.

Pittsburg, June 9.-After a stormy session in which Dr. J. Leonard Levy of Pittsburg and Dr. Emil G. Hirsch of Chicago were criticised by a delegate for having not attended the convention, the Federation of American Zionists ad- journed tonight. The most important business transacted by the convention was the adoption to-day of a resolution by which the Federation will in future join with Jewish Philanthropic societies in aiding oppressed Jews throughout the
 world, instead of devoting all its atten- tion to providing homes for Jews in
 Palestine.

QUAKER CITK TEXTILE STRIKE.
Eighsy-one Firms Out of 500 Have Granted the Demands.

Granted the Demands.
 Philadelphia, June 9.--Eighty-one firms out of over five hundred in the city have granted the demands of the textile workers and the majority of these have opened their establishments for work. Some of them are closed be- cause of a scarcity of material on ac- count of the strike. Three firms signed the union scale to-day, they being the Ferguson Hosiery company. the Carl Schlatter Dye company, and the EIec- tric Dye Works. The two dyeing com panies besides giving their employees the fifty-five hours week have also con- ceded the increase in wages from SIP to SIS a week. Of the 1S0 dye houses in the city. twelve have garnted both the shorter week and the higher wages, and seventeen are willing to give the increase in wages but not the fifty-five hour week. The employees of the latter class refused to go to work unless both demands were granted. Only one of the sixty-three ingrain carpet nanu- facturers has granted to his employees both the fifty-five hour week and the 10 per cent. increase in wages asked for by the ingrain carpet weavers.
 The rug weavers, copwinders, spool CTS, worsted and woollen yarn workers and the loom fixers met to-day and voted to stay on strike until their de- mands are granetd. The work of or ganizing those who are not affiliated with the union continues, and the labor leaders express themselves as gratified with the progress of the work in this line. The leaders are giving much at tention to the Manayunk district, where many of the strikers went back to work. They hope by the end of the week to again bring these workers out.
 The manufacturers, as a rule, are not discussing the situation beyond ex- pressing the belief that the strikers cannot win all the manufacturers oys4 ito their way of thinking.

RIVER FALLING AT ST. LOUIS.
Flood Passes aud Better Conditions
 WtiA Prevail,

Washington, June 9.-After a slight fall during Monday the river at St. Louis began to rise slowly this morn- ing, reaching a stage of 377 feet at il a. m., and at p. m. was still at that point. This is no doubt the maximum stage that will be reached and the de- cline will begin Wednesday morning. The fall of Monday. is believed to have been due to breaks in the levees above. The crest stage of 37.7 feet is two- tenths of foot higher than the maxi mum stage of May 19, 1858, and three and seven-t tenths feet below the great high-water mark of June 27, 1S44. The Missouri and upper Mississippi are falling steadily. In the lower Missssip- pi the rise continues. No changes are indicated from forecasts previously is- sued, and no stages of really danger ous nature are indicated from the wa ter now in sight.

FOG AGAIN PREVENTS RACE.
Big Cup Defen dsrs o zee More Prevented
 From Meeting.

New York, June 9.-Fog again to-day prevented race between the three ri- vals for selection as cup defenders. The start was set for 11:a0 a. nl.. but at that hour a thick bank of fog overhung Sandy Hook where they lay.
 It was clear within the Hook when, at D. m. the Constitution left for the starting line. The Reliance and Colun- bia followed half an hour later, all three boats in tow. The Reliance and Columbia were two miles from the starting line when the fog shut down and they returned to the Hook, follow ed later by the Constitution.
 The yachts will race tomorrow, weather permitting, under the auspices of the Atlantic Yacht club.

FLOOD SITUATION.
Highest Mark Ever Established at St.
 Louts-E Efforts to Relieve Suffering.

Louis Efforts to Relieve Suffering.
 St. Louis, June 9.-The Mississippi flood, which last night began to recede after reaching stage of 37.5 feet, be- gan a. rapid rise to-day, establishing the highest water-mark ever recorded in St. Louis. The rise was rapid after the dawn of day, the water creeping up from 37.1 feet, steadily increasing until at noon the stage had reached 3775 feet. From that time until tonight the river remained stationary.
 What has caused the rise is problem atical. Forecaster Bowie says the rise will be of short duration and the de- cline consequently will be rapid.
 It is estimated that 5000 refugees have found shelter in St. Louis and vi- cinity., It is estimated that 4,000 people are still living in flooded homes in Granite City, Venice and Madison. A supply boat has been outfitted and it will make daily trips to relieve suffer ing.
 The flood situation in East St. Louis IS Sllll CIlllCdl' IldSL lAlSiit IL Nuo bC- lieved that the flood had been conquer ed and work on the levees was stopped, but the additional rise of to-day caused work on the levees to be resumed and all business was abandoned once more.
 The viaduct leading from East St. Louis to Eads Bridge, which has been the viewing point for thousands of people, was ordered closed to-day as it is believed the water has weakened the abutments and rendered the bridge dangerous. Trains crossing Eads Bridge must stop at the relay station and pas sengers are taken by boat to land and transported to places where waiting trains can be boarded.
 Reports are received constantly that river thieves are continuing to loot sub merged houses of the three stricken cities north of East St. Louis. Re- ports indicate that both the Missouri and Mississippi rivers are falling above here. The heavy winds of last night probably had much to do with fore ing back water from lowlands into the channel and helped to cause the rise. For this reason it is believed that the flood crisis is over and tomorrow will see steady decline which will continue until normal conditions prevail once more.

POPE'S DECLINE.
Tho Ponttfr Certainly Weakening but Still Directs Affairs of Church.

Paris. June 9. - A dispatch to the Temps from Rome says the pope's re- ception of the pilgrims to-day was due to the fear of the vatican authorities that his failure to receive them would cause exaggerated reports of his i'll health. The correspondent adds that the pontiff is certainly weakening, but he says the pope continues on foot, directs the affairs of the church with his accus- toned clearness of mind and to-day dis cussed the affairs of the Oriental mis- sion with Mgr. Savelli.

RECORD OF PARKS:
NEVER LOST STRIKE
The Man Who is Charged With
Labor Extortion in
New York,

New York. June 11.-Soon after be-
ing liberated on bonds signed by eN-
Chief of Police Devery. Samuel Parks,
the business agent charged with brib-
cry. was rearrested on similar charges
made by Louis Brandt. builder, and
other employers. The specifications
of the charges are that he accepted
money for calling off and preventing
strikes, and the proof was very eX-
plicit.
Samuel J. Parks has one record
which Is probably unparalleled. In less
than seven years he has ordered more
than 5000 strikes in New York and
has not lost one of them. The COM
plete history of Parks life would make
interesting reading. and it would be a
record of action. Born in County
Down. ireland. he went to Canada
when he was II, and he has shifted
for himself ever since.
