ANOTHER SCOTCH CANAL.
It is Proposed to Construct It From
Alloa to Arrocher.

According to United States Consul Flem-
ing, at. Edinburgh, In report to the State
Department the feasibility of ship canal
between the Forth and Clyde has been
for many years a subject of discussion in
shipping ard commercial circles in Scot
land. Several routes were suggested at
various times. but no definite steps have
been taken toward the preparation of
plans. At present the prospect of the con-
struction of such a waterway is, however
considerably brighter. A company of Lon.
don financiers Is taking an active interest
in the project, and has, 1t is said, adopted
the scheme put forward by Messrs. d. &
Z. Stevenson. prominent firm of harbor
engineers of Edinburgh. Messrs. Steven
son surveyed the route some years ago
from Alloa, on the Forth, to Arrocher, on
Loch Long. and are now making further
survey In detail, preparing plans, etc
The consul says he is informed that an
Edinburgh committee syndicate is act
ing in conjunction with the London pro-
moters, and that the sum of 10000 600
$4S 6G5, ,0O0) has been pledged, on condition
that parliament shall guarantee interest on
capital. The promoters are confident that
parliament will aid the enterprise to this
extent. In view of the importance of the
canal for naval purposes.
The consul says that the canal will affect
| an enormous tonnage, estimated by the
sanguine engineers at 100000 tons per
annum At an average rate per ship and
cargo Of SO cents per ton, this would yield
a revenue of about So. 4O6, $50.
The east and west coasts Of Scotland
are now connected by two CANALS name
ly, the Forth and Clyde, from Grange
mouth, on the Forth, to Bowling, on the
Clyde. and the Caledonian. constructed at
national expense. between Inverness and
Fort William. Both OF these canals are
quite Inadequate to meet the present wants
Of shipping. as they can only accommodate te
vessels Of small class. The first named

donian can only be used by vessels of
about 15O feet in length 38 feet beam and
II feet draft. Both canals are seriously
incumbered by numerous locks.

'RICKISHA MEN STRIKE
Interesting Account Of Recent Happen
ing at Osaka, Japan.

Consul Blllows at Yokohama has made a
report to the State Department in regard
to recent strike on the part of the
1inrikisha men in Japan, in which he says:
THE strike of the jinrikisha men at
Osaka was quite remarkable affair. The
situation bears some peculiar features, and
Is worthy of study because OF the light it
throws on the character of the people.
Osaka Is manufacturing city of 500, 600.
For travel about the streets of the city the
visitor has to depend upon the jinrikisha
each vehicle usually accommodating only
one grown person and requiring the serv-
Ices OF one puller In many cases the
puiler or kurumay owns his vehicle and
works on his own account. but In other in
stances several jinrkishas are owned by
the man who hires his pullers.
Ihe city Is intersected by rivers and
canals, on which boat service has lately
been established, SO as to enter into COM
petition with the business of the pullers.
The latter resented this and determined to
quit work on June II last. Accordingly, on
that day 1t was almost impossible to OBJ
tain a jinrikisha in any part of the city,
and the idle men gathered on the corners
OIL the streets to attack those of their fell
lows who had not Joined the strike and
were seen drawing passengers, or they as
sembled at the bridges and other points of
vantage to throw stones and other missiles
at the passing boats. A mob of strikers
also started toward the building where the
boat company has its headquarters with the
purpose of demolishing it, but they were
intercepted by the police and dispersed be-
fore reaching their destination.
Efforts were made to set some of the
boats on fire, and one boat was so roughly
handled that passengers. becoming fright
ened attempted to leave her before she
reached her mooring. Many of the men
passengers waded ashore.
The strikers held two mass meetings"
concludes Mr. Bellows. "At one of these
meetings the adoption of violent measures
was advocated even to the point of de-
stroying all the property of the boat COM
pany. AT the other meeting the feeling
seemed less intense. On June IA, however
matter had been adjusted and both lin
rikshas and the boats were again CARRYING
passengers, as usual. The strikers lost
their case

Lawyers Defeated by Real Estate and
Insurance Team,

A game Of base ball was played on the
grounds Of the Georgetown University cam
pus Saturday afternoon between clubs rep
resenting the lawyers and real estate and
insurance men Of the District of Columbia,
which resulted in a defeat for the former
by a score Of 10 to Z.
The real estate and insurance people had
such a short time in which to organize they
were compelled to take on a few who do
not follow the business in order to make
the requisite number to start the game
The game was marked by many fine plays
by players of each club and was very in
teresting up to the sixth inning when the
real estate and insurance people made
runaway finish" of 1t by scoring sixteen
runs in the three remaining innings.
The clubs were composed of the following
players:

ASLEEP FOR SIX WEEKS
Recommended Cures Pour in Upon G
E. Allen at Long Branch.

special dispatch to the Baltimore Sun
from Long Branch. N. j.. yesterday says:
Cures for c. Endicott Aliens strange af-
Fiction are pouring into Long Branch from
all parts of the country. Allen has been
asleep, except at slight intervals for the
last six weeks. He has been a patient at
the Monmouth Memorial Hospital for 1--WE
weeks. His present condition was brought
about by overwork and anxiety.
Allen is being treated by electricity. He
drinks three quarts of milk daily and is
aroused two or three times a day He re-
mains awake less than three minutes at a
time. His mind is a blank regarding his
present ailment and how 1t was brought
about, he being able to refer only to incl
dents which took place in his childhood.
Remedies are being received by the dozen.
One person suggests music another hug
ging. while Professor Herman wants to
hypnotic Allen.
The case OF Allen is a puzzle. The ply
sicians at the beginning were almost con-
fident that he would be well in a couple OF
weeks. Now that five weeks have passed
and his condition has not improved, the
only perceptible change being a decrease in
his weight, they have given up prophecy

men, in every relation of life, at all times
and in all places, William Reynolds Single
ton showed that he knew and understood
that art. and there was reflected in his
character the luster of that light which
ever burns upon the altar of our fraternity.
He erected for himself a monument that
Will endure when this granite shall have
crumbled into dust and this bronze have
been destroyed by rust; he builded 1t in the
hearts of his brethren and in the memories
OF fraternity which teaches that charity
and love and the influence of a good name
shall extend beyond the grave and into the
boundless realms Of eternity"
Other Addresses.
The formal dedicatory services followed,
after which brief addresses were made by
Senior Warden William H. Singleton Of
Pentalpha Lodge. a son of the deceased.
and Frank H. Thomas, the first worshipful
master of William r. Singleton Lodge. A
feature of the ceremonies was the beautiful
singing by Masonic octet of Lead, Kind
ly Light" Come Unto Me- and Still, Still
With Thee"
The monument is the tribute Of the fra
ternity to one of Its most honored and ven
Grated members. Mr. Singleton was mas
ter Mason for more than sixty years, and
was renowned Masonic scholar. He was
grand secretary of the Grand Lodge for
more than a quarter of century.
U. 3. G. Dunbar was the sculptor Of the
monument. which is an excellent bronze
bust of the deceased, mounted on a pedes-
tai and base of polished granite. 1t is ap-
propriately inscribed and is in every way
worthy tribute to the memory Of the
lamented grand secretary.

FIERCE FIGHT IN CHURCH.
Two Negroes Killed and Six Wounded
at Camak. Ga.

A special from Camak, Ga, says:
Two killed and six wounded, four of
them. 1t is believed. fatally, is the result
of a row at a negro church here tonight, in
which pistols and razors played a deadly
part.
The entire negro population of the town
is terrorized as result Of the ARRAY and
it is impossible to learn the real cause of
the trouble. The shooting started over a
dispute Of some sort. There was then a
wild rush to get from the building. and 1t
is believed that many of tho wounded were
hurt In this. Women and children were
trampled under foot by men. who, with
knives and pistols in their hands, were try
ing to escape foes armed in the Same man
ner.
AS yet 1t is impossible to learn the names
of those who did the shooting. It seems
that nearly every negro man in the build
ing was using either a pistol or knife.
and it may never be known whose efforts
to kill were effective.
