THE RIGHT TO STRIKE.

Judge Adams of St. Louis has dissolved the injunc-
ton he recently issued forbddng the officers of railway
brotherhoods from ordering strike which had been
thOr1Zed by the trainmen represented.
In rendering the decision Judge Adams said he found
the claims of the railroad company that the rainmen
satisfied with wages and conditions proven nor
was it shown that the had conspred interfere
with interstate commerce the mails.
The decision establishes the right of union to strike
If settle its disagreements with employers in no
other way and the right of officers of the union to act
representatives of the when the strike is ordered
and during its progress.
Labor everywhere will hail the decision as most
important to them John Mitchell says it is zone of the
greatest victories for labor fought in the courts 1t
shows that the personal liberties of cannot be fooled
with even by the courts"
In effect the decision is that the courts will not COM
pei to work for unsatisfactory employer nor
will they compel any number of men, organized
gained, to fill positions not satisfactory.
There was much doubt as to the nature of the
decision when should be handed down But the ssr-
ing Of the temporary injunction served the purpose
sought-that of keeping the from striking. To this
extent 1t outrage upon the tranmen, for if they
wanted to strike they had the right So the Judge
decides. The wisdom unwisdom of the proposed
strike not in question.

work has been abandoned

COUNT ZBOROWSKI
KILLED IN A RACE
His Automobile Is Wrecked and He Is
Thown Against a Rock.

NICE, France, April Count Ell
lott Zborowski, Of New York, was
killed today in an automobile hill
climbing race between here and La
Turbie. His car turned a sharp angle
too quickly, turned over and was
wrecked. The count was hurled
against a rock. his head was split and
he died instantly. His friend Baron
de Ia Sage, who was acting as Count
Zborowskfs Chauffeur. was badly in
jured.
The course, which is fifteen kilome-
ters long, is known as being most dan
gerous. 1t runs around sharp corners
along the cliffs of La Corniche (the
name given to the road leading from
Nice to Genoa). 1t was covered by
last years winner under IL minutes.
Baron de Pallange is also prominent
In the social and automobile world.
His wounds were at first believed to be
fatal, but after the baron had been
carried to hospital and examined
the surgeons did not pronounce his
Injuries necessarily mortal.
zborowsh, who expected to cover
the course IN fifteen minutes, had q
machine weighing 1000 pounds. He
leaves a widow 49,.
DIES MONIES, Iowa, April Count
William Elliott zborowski was a ma
tive of Boston and member of the
well known Elliott family of Des
Moines. He came by the name of
Zborowsh and the title Of count
through a native of Poland, who mar
ried his aunt. His uncle had been
banished from Poland and had located
in New York, where he became wealthy
through the purchase Of property.
When he died he left all to his nephew,
William Elliott, Upon the express con-
dition that he assume his name and
title. In 1891 he eloped with the
Baroness de Steurs. wife of the min
lister from The Netherlands to France.
In South Dakota, later, the baroness
secured a decree Of divorce and mar
ried Elliott. The baroness is the
daughter of the late William Carey,
of Boston, and a granddaughter of
John Jacob Astor. Both Elliott and
the baroness Were worth several mil
lion dollars in their own names.

Zborowslki's chauffeur, died tonight of
his injuries.

representatives Indulge in a Bit of
April FooIishness.

Employees and members of the house
had an hours quiet fun with unsus-
pecting sOlons before they tumbIed to
the fact that yesterday was April l.
The fun started with a telephone call
for Representative RosenwaId, who was
lmportuned by voice supposed to be
that of a constituent to bail him out of
the workhouse. The story that came
over the wire was to the effect that
Mr.. ---, whom the legislator knew
we'll, and who at times does look too
long on the cup that cheers, had sep
arated himself from all his cash, ac-
cumulating an uproarOus tide. Pend
ing the payment of $40 fine, Mr..
languished at the wOrkhouse
The same story was sprung on a half
dozen other members, and the joke was
not disclosed until two of them came
together in an attempt to borrow funds
to get their constituents out of limbo.
The fun-making ended when Mr..
Shearer was told that a Mr.. Stiff want
ed to speak to him at a certain num-
Der, which the unsuspecting Mime
apolis law maker discovered was the
ST. Paul morgue, when he attempted to
accommodate Mr.. Stiff.

DANGER OF UNWAsHED FRUIT.
That Sold on the Streets Is Full of
Disease Germs.

On that bunch Of cherries you Buy
from the Italian on the street corner
and eat with so much relish are Clus-
tered four or five millions of dangerous
disease germs. Exceedingly minute
they are, and the flavor of the fruit is
in no wise impaired by their presence,
but there they are just the same-mi-
crococci, bacilli, spirilla-Whole faml-
lies of them.
When we eat an unwashed pear
about 100000 bacteria are carried into
the system, twice that number on a
handful Of garden strawberries, and
still larger numbers on raspberries,
grapes and currants. The most infest-
ed fruits are cherries, with 100000
bacteria to the half pound; currants,
with II, 5000 and grapes, with $780,
900.
man will readily consume a half
pound Of grapes at a sitting, and if the
state of his health leaves him open to
the attacks of disease, it can be appre-
ciated what a tremendous risk he runs
of poisonous infection by the germs.
Not many weeks ago inquiry was
made into the state Of the surface air
in this city The air for several feet
above the ground was found to be lit
orally swarming with bacteria. Now 1t
is matter of everyday observation
that the fruits exposed for sale on the
sidewalks and curbs of New York are
placed at no great distance from the
pavement. In many instances they are
so near the ground as to be in the very
center of the germ bearing strata Of
air. The inference is obvious. Yet in
spite of these facts not one in a hum
dred who hastily buys an apple or
banana on the corner gives the matter
Of bacteria the slightest thought, and
not one in a thousand goes the length
of taking the sanitary precaution Of
washing the fruit.-NeW York Press.

troduced. The senate committee was
induced to inject an amendment de-
ferr1ng operation of the bill until 1905,
but yesterday rescinded that action and
decided upon favorable recommended
ton for the bill as originally drawn.
The action of the senate committee
yesterday was the result of a hearing
given officers of the guard, who urged
the passage of the original bill, and Of
fered arguments sufficiently conclusive
to prove their contentious.
Among the officers who appeared be-
fore the committee yesterday We're
Adjt Gen. Libbey, Col. Charles Van
and Maj. Geo. c. Lambert, command
ing the First artillery. These officers,
with others, urged that the theory of
life tenure Of command is not con-
duciVe to the best effort, and that any
field or general officer who could not
in ten years service win reelection
could not hope to render the state the
highest type of service.
Few states have the life term system
Of Minnesota, and many states require
not only field and general officers. but
line officers to stand for reelection
every year. The present bill is not
drawn to affect line officers, as the
code is so strictly drawn that undesir-
able or unsatisfactory material can be
easily Weeded out.
With few individual exceptions the
national guardsmen are united in sup
port of the measure, and so deep is
their interest that a relay of officers is
at the capitol daily explaining merits
of the bill to the legislators who are
unfamiliar with the states military es-
adjustment. The bill does not legislate
anyone out of office, but requires that
an election shall be held at the end
of ten years service by any field or
general officer.
Among the officers who would be
Immediately affected by the bill are
Brig. Gen. w. B. Bend, Col. Joseph
Bobleter, commanding the Second in
fantry; Col. c. Nee. Reeve, command
ing the First infantry; Lieut.. Col. Geo.
L. Meade, Of the Second infantry;
Lieut.. Col. Johnson, of the Third in
fantry; Maj. Wright, senior major of
the Second infantry. Several other Of
fcers would be affected within the en-
suing year, and scarcely a field officer
in the brigade would escape its opera
ton more than four or five years.

CUT OFF FAT PERoUIsITEs.
Fryberser Wants Legislature to AboI.
ish the Fee System.

The house yesterday ratified Fry
bergers plan, which contemplates the
abolition Of fee compensation for state
and county officials.
A concurrent resolution offered Mon
day by Mr.. Fryberger provided for the
appointment Of a committee of one
member from each congressional dis
trict and like number of senators to
investigate the fee system and draft
bill or bills designed to do away with
fees and fix the compensations for the
several offices.
Yesterday Mr.. Fryberger called up
his resolution and offered slight
amendments, which in effect provide
that fees shall be abolished so far as
practicable. The resolution was adopt
ed without debate or dissent.
Its adoption by the senate may rea-
sonably be expected, as it is now too
late to get action on the proposed bills,
could they be agreed upon by the spe-
cial committee before adjournment.

MR.. CLEVELAND AND
HIS ST. LOUIS TRIP
Never Had an Intention of Going Fur
Their Than the Missouri City.

PRINCETON, N. J., April Former
President Cleveland made the following
statement tonight relative to his in
tended visit to st. Louis to attend the
dedicatory exercises of the Louisiana
Purchase exposition:
Il have had no intention of going
any farther than st. Louis and intend
returning as soon as possible by the
most direct route, and yet in some way
it has been given out that I was to go
to the Pacific coast and visit California
and Colorado and L don't know how
many other states and territories, and
in consequence of this I have received
numerous letters from good people liv-
ing in these localities making requests
based entirely upon the truth of these
reports. 1t may be amusing to those
who start such rumOrs, but it produces
a reverse effect on those who are made
the victims of so absurd a canard."

these are the facts as furnished by
several members of the Master Plas-
terers' association. When seen yester-
day evening, the members of the Jour-
neyhen union would not say anything
for publication.

might as well be now as any other
time. The master plasterers, as far
as L can see, Will not give in one inch;
they're doing all they should now"
Mr.. Cullen added: The solution of
this trouble lies, to a great extent, with
the building public. If it will stand
building that such a course as grant
ing this demand would entail, we will
certainly pay it."
The report that the master plaster
ers have submitted to the iOurneymen
a demand that they sign an agree
ment to work for no other than union
master plasterers was denied entirely
by member of the Master Plasterers'
association late last night. He said,
however, that such a matter had been
preached by several members at re-
cent meeting, but that no official ac-
ton had been taken in the matter. He
further emphasized the fact that the
immediate matter at issue was the fact
of the additional so cents per day de-
manded by the men over the 81 hitler
to paid them.
A meeting of the Master Plasterers'
association has been called for Friday
night at o'clock in the Builders Ex-

INTERVIEW BETWEEN KING
EDWARD AND THE POPE
1t Seems to Be a Very Difficult Matter
to Be Brought About.

ROME, April although no official
confirmation has yet been received,
the news that King Edward VII. will
visit Rome at the end of this month
has produced a great impression at
the Vatican. The ceremonial initiated
by the German emperor forms a prece-
dent for the procedure which may be
adopted on King Edwards visit. The
rule is for non-Catholic sovereigns to
leave the Quirinal and go to the resi-
dence of their representative at the
Holy See, whence, from neutral ground
they can proceed to the Vatican. King
Edward, like the shah Of Persia, has
no representative at the Holy See. The
Vatican proposed to the shah that he
should start from the residence of an
other diplomatist, but this the shah re-
fused to do. AS it is impossible to
make the same proposal to King Ed
ward, all the diplomacy of the Vatican
is being brought into play to secure an
interview between the king of England
and Pope Leo.
