SMOOTH GIRL CRATER.
Dubuque Officers Think They Have
Landed Female Crook.

IandeQ TCndle STOONs
Special to Times Republican.
Dubuque, July 22.-Rose Ettinger, an
olive skinned beauty from the far east
was brought before Judge Carney yes
terday. She is accused of stealing
iewelry from the home Of M. Kohn
Sunday night and was arrested Mon
day at Green Island by Deputy Sheriff
Spielman.
Rose has seen about eighteen sum
mers and is believed by the police to
be one of the smoothest grafters they
have caught for long time.
Sunday night she came to the home
of Mrs. M. Kohn begged for some
thing to eat and then when this was
given her she asked II she could be
given lodging. This was done and in
the morning when the people in the
house awoke they We're surprised to
notice the girl had gone and with her
a fine gold watch and chain The po-
lice and the sheriff We're notified and
latter in the afternoon hearing she had
gone to Bellevue on the afternoon
train wired to Green Island to have
the station agent arrest her. This was
done and when the girl got that far
she was taken into custody and the
authorities at Dubuque notified.
Last night at the police headquar-
tiers when the girl was searched she
was found to have no less than five
bank books on her person and 1t is
this that leads the police to believe
she is a crook travelling around the
country and when she gets into one
town and is hard UP she can go to the
bank and draw money. She evidently

STEEL STOCKS HIT
Terrific Bear Attack on the Steel Cor
poraton Shares-Hundreds Of Hold
ers Got Rid of Their Stock.

| New York. July 22.-There was wild

Steel Corporation to sell their holdings,
which created a confusion that ex-
| tended to all parts of the market 1t

characterized the market for the last

part of hundreds OF persons. many hav-

point higher than the mark on the day

At par this represents a face value of
s1S,50O.0 900. AT yesterdays closing fig
ures. however, the value was only s6,-
100000. The losses for the day were s2.75
on each share of common and $3.S7k
on each share of preferred. The high
record for 1902 was 46A for common
and 9TA for preferred.
The reasons for the anxiety on the
part of people generally to sell Steel
stocks are being anXiously searched for
by Wall street traders, for they do not
seem to be altogether clear in view of
the recent reports of future business
for the mills controlled by the trust.
Many rumors We're current yester-
day, the most alarming of which was
the statement credited 70 insiders and
circulated freely by brokerage houses
that the next dividend on Steel COM
mon, which is payable Sept. 80, will be
the last for some time. Wall street is
practically unanimous IN the opinion
that it would be unwise to declare an
other dividend on the common stock on
the basis at which the stock sold yes

the present rate of dividends at least
ISIS per cent interest on the money in.

None of the prominent interests con-

finance committee said the question of

MELON CROP LATE.
Cool Weather Has Set Them Back
Fully Three Weeks.

Special to Times Republican.
Muscatine, July 22.-The melon crop
on Muscatine Island will probably be
from three to four weeks late this year.
owing to the cool nights, and cold
weather, which makes it impossible
for them to grow to amount to any
thing. A prominent grower from south
of Fruitland was in the city yester
day and stated that with only few
exceptions the melons We're scarcely as
large as an ordinary tin cup. when at
this time they should be almost ready
for market. The cabbage crop is very
poor this year, and the market does
not demand the output. Sweet pota-
toes are very promising this year and
with continued favorable weather a
good crop will result.
Same Conditions.
The same conditions prevail all over
Muscatine Island, tho there are one or
two patches where the soil is just right
and the melons are far in advance of
the others, some of them being as large
as half gallon jug. The crop will de-
pend largely on warm weather from
now an and late fall, for the shippers
saw if it coois early in September
there will not be the ordinary demand
for melons, because people do not like
them in cool weather,

Report That Anarchists Are
Preaching Doctrine of Dis
content to Labor Unions
MERGING INTERESTS AND AIMS
The Statement is Made That Anar.
chsts Intend to Abandon Explosions
and shootinss, and Are Secretly
Joining Labor Unions, While Pre-
serving Their Inner Circles.

Chicago, July 22.-Chief of Police
O'Neill declares that a movement for a
universal strike has been secretly fos-
tered in labor unions by anarchists
and that the day Of the bomb and dag
ger has passed by. According to infor-
nation in Chief O'Neill's possession.
the anarchists are joining the labor
unions, at the same time preserving
their inner circles, and are preaching
the doctrine of discomfort, while the
great mass OF labor, organized and UNI
organized, remain in ignorance of the
true state of affairs.
anarchists and certain labor leaders
are merging their interests and aims"
Chief O'Neill said. There are to be
no explosions, no shootings. They are
working toward a universal strike and
certain labor leaders have already been
thoroughly infected with the idea.
have this information from what re-
gard as reliable source. The great
majority of labor men are ignorant of

ment.
1.-The anarchists are not disclosing
their ultimate intentions, but are NOV
ing now to get control Of labor organ
izations. They join the unions, teach
new ideas, inculcate dissatisfaction
with capital and try to instill the i'm
preston that they are down trodden.
They hope by universal strike to
accomplish what they aimed at in other
directions Notice what labor leaders
in the past week, have been doing and
SAYING what they would do. There
have been hints that Chicago would
be made a cemetery-that other things
would happen. Some Of those people
talk as if they knew what they Were
talking about
Reports that the Chicago police de-
partment had given information 20
Swedish authorities concerning three
or four anarchists who appear to have
timed their movements In Sweden to
agree with those probably to be made
by Emperor William and King Oscar
have been verified by Chief O'Neill. He
gave the information in the first place
to the local Swedish authorities. The
anarchists left America several weeks
ago and went to Copenhagen, where
search is now being made for them.
