Finljanstaja Gaseta, the organ OF
Bobrikoff, the governor general OF
Finland, regrets that the boundary
line between Sweden and Finland
was not drawn along the Jorne in
stead of the Kalix river when the
treaty of Fredrikshamn was conclud-
ed, in 1909. One of Bobrikoff's agents
has even gone so far as to distribute
the paper in Haparanda. Mention
should also be made of the habit of
the Russian gendarmes stationed at
Thorne to take strolls over to Hapa-
randa to chat with the people. On
such occasions the gendarmes wear
their uniforms though they enter a
foreign country.
The Goth birthday of Edward Grieg
was celebrated with grand concerts
in the largest cities in Norway. Grieg
spent the day in Bergen, his native
city. Flags could be seen waving in
profusion all over the city and even
in rural communities. Between 200
and 800 kilograms were received,
some from America and Africa.
Bjornson proposed cheers for Grieg
at the opening of the concert in Ber-

himself was the signal for tenn
pest of cheers.
Gov. Douglas of Ostergotland has

Inc threat of DIR. Sigurd Ibsen to
resign from the Norwegian cabinet
mad its desired effect. Both Stang
ana konow retired, and Captain Hef-
'ye mas been appointed minister of
war: This change in the cabinet is
!n'ehded to mean continuation of
tne negotiations carried on between
sweden and Norway with regard to
tne establishment of separate con-
sular service for Norway. Minister of
otate QUAR- recently expressed him
sel1 very frankly on the present sit
uatlon to representative of the Don
neorog, Danish paper. II am firm
~ convinced he said, that the
change which has just taken place in
the complexion of the Norwegian
government will be very favora BILE
10 the development of even better
relations between the Norwegian and
the Swedish people. In Norway, as
well as in Sweden, practically all
leading politicians have committed
themselves to a speedy settlement
OF the consular service question, and
the Swedes are realizing more and
more strongly that the Norwegians
are entitled to consular service of
their own. On this point the retir-
ing members agreed with us. But
they were afraid of the manner in
which it is proposed to settle the
question, namely, by means of identi-
cal laws which cannot be changed by
one party alone-they were afraid
that this arrangement may limit the
sovereign rights of the Norwegian
authorities when they, at some fu-
ture date, may decide to reorganize
the foreign service. We, who consti-
tute the present government of Nor
way, do not share this fear. We be-
heve that the proposed plan will be
OF the greatest Importance by way
OF creating a better feeling between
the two nations, and clear an old
controversy out of the world. I be-
lieve the question will be definitely
settled at no distant day. The at
titude of the Swedish government is
really such that the whole question
might have been settled several
months ago; the only obstacle being
the large amount of work with which
the Swedish government haus been
loaded down. In short while Nor
way will have consular service"

 WASHINGTON, Oct. 1-The execu- tive council of the American Fedora ton of Labor has issued the following address to organized labor of America ::
 t'The executive council of the Amer ican Federation of Labor has recently addressed organized labor by circular on subjects, including bills, which will Z be introduced in the forthcoming ses- sion of congress in the interest of the wage earners of our country and which were committed to us by you through your representatives at the last A. F. of L. convention. Since then the exec utive council has held several sessions, and of all legislative measures the eight hour and the anti-injunction bills have received our especial attention.
 While we seek to avoid and avert strikes and industrial disputes, any at tempt to cripple the right of labor as a last resort to strike in defense of our rights simply means Iabor's enslave- ment, for industrial tranquility by agreement through the methods of con ciliation and fair arbitration is only possible and attainable when the work CTS are organized and have the liberty to exerGise their constitutional rights.
 The men in the organized labor movement are law abiding, faithful and loyal citizens. They have no de sire for immunity from the laws gov. erning other citizens, but they most emphatically resent and protest against the actions of courts convicting men for acts, which they have the legal right to perform and then, too, without the right of a trial by jury of their peers" tas

LEXINGTON, s. O., Oct. 1.-During
 the seven hours devoted to the trial of | James H. Tillman seven of the state s witnesses were heard. The state still
 has a number of witnesses to be called. Dr. B. W. Taylor, who was on the stand when court adjourned, concluded his testimony. In answer to ques- ton by counsel for the state he said the operation was necessary to prolong life. After an examination of the i wound he entertained no hope for the recovery of MT. Gonzales. MT. Con- gales was under the influence of an anasthetic when he first saw him at the hospital.
 The testimony given by M. c. Wal lace, a compositor on the State, who preceded Mr. Hoyt on the stand, was to the effect that MT. Gonzales told him while lying in the office of the State something to the effect that he could not live
 Judge Gary in ruling that the state ment which MT. Hoyt said Gonzales made to him was admissible held that all the requirements of law relative to the admission of dying declarat tions had been met. The defense then objected to the Introduction of a verbal statement If there were any written statements made by Gonzales. When court recon vened MT. Hoyt testified that MT Con gales made the following statement to him:
 He said that he left the State office to go to dinner; he was walking along Main street toward the state capitol and he got nearly to the City Railway transfer station when he saw Jim Till man coming from the capitol with two men whom he did not recognize. He said there were several people standing around the corner and that he saw if he kept on his course along the edge of the pavement he would brush against these men, and to avoid them he cut diagonally across the pavement toward the corner of the transfer station, and as he was going across he saw TiIlman pull big pistol and shoot. He said that he turned and faced him and exclaim- ed: Shoot again, you coward. You have killed mel He looked Ti1lman in the face, and Tillman held the pistol to- ward him, but did not shoot He said that then some gentlemen ran up and helped him. He said that as he shot just about the time I'illman shot-that he fTillmanl exclaimed, T have done what you said, or, I have taken you st your word, or something like that"

WATCHING RUSSIA.
Picking Awaits Action of the MuscO- vites In Manchuria.


 PEKING, Oct 1.-Attention here is concentrated on Oct. 8, the date fixed by Russia for her evacuation of Muk- den and Newchwang. Russia's action in fulfilling or ignoring her agreement to evacuate will be the chief factor, it is considered, in determining her rela- tions with Japan.
 Prince Ching, the president of the foreign board, assures the foreign min isters that he is continuing to resist the Russian proposals. Prince Ching told M. Lessar, the Russian minister, that Russia should carry out her agree ment first and then the other conces- sions she requires in ManchuTia would be discussed. The Chinese papers as- sert that M. Lessar is pressing for Rus sian control of the customs and mining rights in Manchuria, in addition to the proposals embodied in the last Russian evacuation scheme.
 Uchida Yasuya, the Japanese minis ter, is opposing the Russian demands. Sir B. M. Satow, the British minister, and United States Minister Conger have limited their representations to friendly advice. Uchida is negotiating for the inclusion of the opening of Mukden, Tatungkao and Antung in the Japanese commercial treaty.

 The czar, replying, said that the em- peror's words of welcome had touched him deeply.

The cordial under standing between Russia and Austria and the complete harmony in the ac- ton of their governments constituted valuable pledge for the success of the great work of paciffcation on which they were mutually agreed. The hu- manitarian aim pursued, proceeded the czar, excluded all partiality and must be attained with f1rmness and perse- veranoe by methods which were most fitted to insure real and permanent pacification. He hoped, he said, that these efforts would contribute to the strengthening of the general peace.
