BAD FOR ORE TRADE
Strike of Masters and Pilots
Viii Affect Minnesota.
Special to The Globe.

DULUTH, Mimi, Sept. 1s--The
strike of the Masters and Pilots asso-
sociation promises to do a great deal
of harm to Duluth and the Iron Range
interests of st. Louis county if it con-
tinues. The Injurious effects will be
at first confined to the lakes, but will
Immediately extend to the mines and
iron ore railroads of the Steel corpora
ton. Moreover, the fight may extend
TO other fleets than those in which
Commodore Wolvin is interested.
The tying up of the Pittsburg steam
ship fleet, which seems to be progress
ing as rapidly as the boats arrive at
lower lake ports, will affect shipments
TO the extent of several million tons of
ore from Minnesota before the end of
the season. The steel corporation is.
of course, the biggest producer and
shipper of iron ore in the lake region
and employs several thousand men on
its two railroads and in the mines.
If the season of navigation for the
corporation is to end at this time on
account of labor troubles a large per
cent of these employees will be dropped
from the pay rolls. The ore movement
Will experience a very serious set
back. at any rate. The steel corpora
ton is well provided with iron ore at
present, and 1t is claimed that it will
be able to get through to next spring
If not another cargo is forwarded for
1t this year.

From London and Constantinople
encouraging news has been received.
From London it is reported that the
British government will send a fleet
to Turkish waters, while reports from
Constantinople say that Great Britain,
France and Italy have intervened to
prevent the continuance Of massacres
in Macedonia. 1t is said that yester-
day the representatives of these powers
advised the sultan of their dissatis-
faction with the methods Of suppress
ing the outbreak and declared that the
massacres must be stopped. 1t is said
that they made special reference to
the excesses committed by the Turkish
troops in the vilayet of Uskub, where
the revolutionary outbreak is inSignifi-
cant and affords no excuse to the SOL
dlers for pillaging and burning the
villages and killing the inhabitants.
The porte is said to have replied
that Turkey is simply carrying out the
wishes expressed by the powers which
urge the sultan's government to adopt
energetic measures to suppress the
revolution as speedily as possible. The
report that these powers have taken
such action has been received with
satisfaction by the Bulgarian ministry.

FLOOD SITUATION IS
GRAVE AT La CROSSE
River Rises Steadily, Entering
the Town, Submeraing Farm
Lands and Doing Damage.

LA CROSSE, Wis, Sept 1S.-Not
for many years has the water been SO
nigh and destruction In this vicinity
so great as now. Thousands of acres
of farm lands along the river are sub
merged, stacks of hay and grain swept
away, live stock in fields drowned and
inestimable damage inflicted. The
flood has entered La Crosse and in the
lower portion of the North side fifty
families have been forced to move out
of their homes. The river has over
flowed the Milwaukee tracks on the
IeVee and goods were moved out of
the lower floors of long row of whole
sale houses, which it was expected
the water would enter.
The river is still rising half an inch
an hour. The stage is 12.5, half a foot
above the danger point.
Pettibone park, the handsome new
$15O,O00 pleasure ground, is entirely
submerged. The mill dam and part of
the mill at Misha Mokwa are washed
away. AT Mondovi both mill and dams
are out, a house and barn have been
washed away and much live stock
drowned. Communication with the
rural districts in this vicinity is entire
ly cut off, owing to innumerable bridg-
es being washed out Three saw mills
in this city have been forced to stop
work, and thousands of dollars worth
of lumber and. wood piled UP in the
yards is in danger of being washed
away. The local weather observer pre-
diets the river will rise nearly foot
more at this point.

now overlooking the long brick wall
In Riverside park, and it is expected
the water will go nearly a foot higher
before the crest is reached. The water
is now all around many of the business
houses in the Polish settlement in the
First ward, and South side residents
are beginning to fear that that section
of the city may be inundated, as is
generally the case when the river
comes up so high. An endeavor is be-
ing made by means of dams to prevent
the approach of the water there.
The steamer st. Paul, of the Dia-
mond 10 line, which was crippled at
Hastings in the early part of the week
by colliding with the drawbridge there,
came down in a crippled condition this
afternoon. The wheel on the left side
of the boat cannot be used, and the Ga
zelle, of st. Paul, has been secured to
take her place. The boat backed down
through the -Winona drawbridge and
took the better part of an hour in get
ting through. 1t was a close call in
getting her under the high bridge, there
being less than two feet between the
top of the smokestacks and the bridge.
