REASONS FOR THE STRIKE.
Textile Workers Issue Statement
on Conditions.

Philadelphia. June THE Working Com
mittee of the Central Textile Union, COM
posed of one delegate from each union on
strike, met at strike headquarters to-day
and considered the situation.
After five hours session the committee,
in conjunction with the Executive Board of
the textile workers, issued long statement
to the public. giving reasons for the strike
of over 1900 men. women and children.
The statement says that the strike was
ordered for sanitary reasons; that it was
necessary, because the health of the women
and children was at stake
The statement called attention to the
fact that children were compelled to work
ten and three-quarters hours a day in the
mills from Monday to Friday, and six and
one-quarter hours on Saturdays. The state
ment also declares that the textile industry.
as shown in statistics produced before the
Anthracite Coal Strike Commission. is dead
lier than the mining industry: that the
workers in the mills. where Is always dust
are subject to pulmonary diseases. The
statement also asks for the support Of the
public and reiterates the willingness of the
workers to meet their employees for con-
ference.

Marseilles Juno 7-More than a hun
dred persons, passengers and crew, were
drowned near Marseilles to-day in a COLI
sion between the Insulaire and the Iiban,
passenger steamers. belonging to the Frais-
senet Steamship Company Of Marseiles.
The Liban sank and seventy-seven passen-
gers were saved, while the remainder per-
ished.
The steamer Liban left Marseilles this
morning on her regular passenger trip to
BaStfa, Corsica, and was run down and sunk
by the Insulaire off the Marie Islands.
ATTEMPT TO RUN
STEAMER AGROUND.
The collision was witnessed from the
pilot-boat Blechanp, which was about two
miles distant. The Blechamp Immediately
repaired to the spot to render assistance.
The force Of the collision had cut a great
hole in the Libans side and 1t already was
making water rapidly.
The captain saw that the only chance was
to run the steamer aground, and the Liban
was headed full speed for the shore; but
within seventeen minutes after the collision
and while still in deep water the fore part of
the steamer plunged beneath the waves,
and few minutes later 1t had disappeared.
In the meantime the Blechamp, the
steamer Balkan, also belonging to the
Frassinet Company, and other vessels had
drawn near the sinking steamer and were
making desperate efforts to rescue those on
board. The Blechamp picked up forty per-
sons, many of whom were at the point of
exhaustion.
TERRIBLE SCENE
AS BOAT WENT DOWN.
Officers of the steamer Balkan describe
the scene just before the Liban disappeared
as a terrible one.
AS the vessel was sinking it was inclined
to such an angle that her masts struck the
water, causing an eddy, which made the
work of rescue most difficult.
A mass of human beings was clinging TO
the laundering vessel and uttering despair
ing cries as it went down.
At the same time the boilers exploded.
intensifying the horrors. For few mo-
ments the victims were seen struggling in
the sea, then the waves closed over them
and all was silent. Of about 200 passengers
who were aboard the Lban more than half
were drowned.
The Balkan launched three boats. and the
other vessels did all possible to save the
victims in the short time that elapsed be-
tween the time of the collision and the sink
ing of the Liban.
Up to o'clock this afternoon thirty bod
les had been recovered

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Washington, June THAT important ne
gotiations, international in extent and bear
Ing some relation to the attitude of America
and Great Britain toward certain events in
which Russia is interested, are now under
consideration. was made evident to-day by
the hurried visit Of Ambassador Choate to
Washington.
Mr.. Choate arrived at the capital early
this morning and was with the President
for nearly two hours. being a guest at the
White House at luncheon. In the after
noon Secretary Root called for him at the
Willard Hotel and took him for a drive.
during which call was made on Attorney
General Knox.
This evening LIr. Choate dined with Sir
Michael Herbert at the British Embassy,
and later took the midnight train for New
York.
No official statement of any kind was
made as to the topic Of any one of the
conferences in which the American Am
bassador to Great Britain participated. But,
in view of the fact that the Jewish situa-
ton in Russia and the Manchurian ques-
lion are two topics of great Importance
in the minds of Cabinet members. it is pre-
sumed that Mr.. Choate came here TO ex-
press his views at the solicitation of the
President.
There is ample reason to believe that
Ambassador Choats conferred with the
British Ambassador. Sir Michael Herbert,
on the impression given out by Ambassa-
dor Mccormick that the larger part of the
news Of the Jewish situation in Russia
comes to the American public through
English sources. Secretary Hay, however,
is known to be skepticai on this question
and it is said at the State Department that
Americas attitude is based on news reached

intends to call on President Roosevelt to-
morrow TO discuss RussO-Amertcan relations
and especially the agitation in the United
States aroused BY the cruelties to Hebrews
in Kishinev.
The administration here is fully aware
that the Russian Government Is much an
noyed that the display of anti-RusSian SEN
timent at mass meetings in the United
States still continues. although the Rus
sian Government stated that every endeayor
will be made to prevent recurrence Of the
cruelties in Bessarabia and to punish the
guilty. besides having already dismissed the
Governor of the Province in which the riot
ing occurred.
Mr.. Mccormick. Ambassador to Russia,
will confer with the President in regard to
the Kishinev disturbances. Mr.. Mccormick.
before leaving ST. Petersburg, was satisfied
that the Russian authorities were inclined
TO do all possible to better the situation.

KNIGHTS AND LADIES OF SECURITY
RESERVE STOCK OF ZINC
AT JOPLIN is EXHAUSTED.
Unprecedented Stringency in Market
Is Expected to Cause Heavy
Advance in Price.


REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Joplin. No., June There has perhaps
never been time in the history of the Jop-
lin district before when the reserve stock
of zinc ore was completely shipped out.
There were not 800 tons in the bins last
night from one end of the district TO the
other, and every pound of this was sold.
while some purchases Of the output of this
week have been made in advance of the
production of the ore.
The buyers succeeded in gathering up the
ore without creating any particular stir and
without materially advancing prices. but
the rub will come this week, now that the
reserve stock has been wiped out entirely
and the output less even than the very low
average sales for this year.
Beginning this year with some II 00D tons
OF reserve zinc ore, the sales are to-day L.
90 tons less than the same period of last
year, and the surplus has all been marke ted.
IhlS places the output OF this year about
2i.eJ0 tons behind that of last year. High
er prices for both zinc and lead have caused
this year output to sell for 1915 633 more
than the larger output Of last year. Five
months of this year have passed and the
total value of the ores sold has aggregated
a,3oo.sA. II an average Of this value is
year. will be very close to 100000 1t is
the largest value of any previous year, eX-
cepting 1899.
The highest price paid for zinc the pa st
week was $40 per ton, but nearly all ore
assaying better than 81 per cent zinc found
a ready market at that figure. Some ore
may have been marketed at lower basis
figure. but If SO the seller got caught on the
wrong size OF the market. There were
shipped during the week total of 1856 tons
of ZINC. nearly fourth of which was from
the small amount of reserve stock in the
bins week ago. The assay basis price was
81 per ton of ~ per cent zinc. though some
ore sold on a straight bid brought the
equivalent OF S}s basis.
The output will be small for several
weeks more, even should the weather re-
main settled. as ii was the latter part of the
past week. and the present conditions are
forcing a stringency into the situation that
may cause rapid advances in zinc prices
during this month.
follo"lnS are the sales of zinc and lead
in pounds by the companies and individuals
named in the various camps of the joplin
district for the week ending June s, 1875:
