The Strike declared upon the
Great Northern railway last
night was called off and affairs
have assumed a more encourag-
ing aspect.
Neither side will say what con-
cessions were offered, but they
were of sufficient weight to in
duce the union to delay issuing
the strike order, which was to
have been sent out at 6 o'clock
last night.
Z The business men s committee
of the twin cities urged the men
to refrain, if possible, from tieing
up the road, and recon a
Splrlt or mutual concession.
After their conference with the
men the committee waited upon
General Manager Ward and heard
the company side of the case.
A conference was called at 10
O'Clock this morning, but nothing
can be learned OF the result.
While all those who are attend
ing the conference are very re-
ticent, it is reported that con
cessions satisfactory to the men
had been offered, and all that re-
manned was to decide upon GER

THE KINGS SLEEPING COMPARTMENT.
in gold The interior arrangements are
as perfect as they are elaborate and
closely follow the lines of several of the
American wheeled palaces.
The kings smoking room is coy
apartment in mahogany, with fine in
lays of rosewood and Satinwood. His
day compartment is in the colonial
style in white enamel. The furniture is
in satinwood inlaid with ivory. This
room is also treated in green, but of 4
lighter tone. Electric heaters are in
troduced. His bed and dressing rooms
are also in white enamel, with silver
plated fittings, the upholstery generally
being of 4 soft green shade.
In its general arrangement the queens
saloon is similar to that of the king,
with the addition that accommodation
is provided for Princess Victoria. All
the queens rooms are in white enamel,
and the predominating color is blue.
Her bedroom is draped in soft pink.
Adjoining this is her dressing room.
At the end of each saloon is the at
tendants' apartment, which is fitted
with a seat that can be turned into 4
bed for night travelling and also with
electrical appliances for cooking.
There are balconies to each saloon,
which are fitted with windows so that
they can be used as observation cars.
These balcony ends are heated by
steam. and the two saloons are gang
waved together so as to enable any
one to pass from one end Of the royal
train to the other.
To show the completeness and mod
ernness of the appointments it may be
mentioned that the kings saloon is fit
ted with electric cigar lighters, and
each compartment is provided with
portable table lamps.

succeed Justice Shiras, who is expected
to retire. Since June. 1901, Judge Taft
has been the civil head of affairs in our
Asiatic archipelago and has performed
his work in manner that has been
eminently satisfactory to the admins
tration at Washington.
When Justice Gray retired, it is said
that his place on the supreme bench
was offered to Judge Taft. who felt he
was still needed in the islands and was
therefore moved to sacrifice the OppOr
tunity. The president did not forget
this unselfishness and now feels that
the work in the Philippines is in such
shape that it may be taken over by
General Luke L. Wright. the present
vice governor.
Judge Taft, who is a native of Ohio,
was educated for the law. While still
in his twenties he was appointed a
judge of the superior court of Cincin-
natl. Elected to the position for an
other term, he resigned in 1890 to be-
come solicitor general of the United
States under President Harrison In
1892 President Harrison commissioned
him United States circuit judge for the
sixth circuit, which position he surren-
dered to take place on the Philippine
commission.
Personally Judge Taft is one of the
most gracious and kind hearted of men,
but several times during his career he
has shown that he possesses fighting
blood. At Yale he was noted for his
skill as boxer.
1t is related of him that after his re-
turn from college to his home in Gin
cinnati an editor of a scurrilous paper
made an attack on n member of his
family. In company with his father he
went to the office. and five minutes
later the editor who had written the
article was candidate for the hospital.
Judge Taft was married in 1886 to
Miss Helen Heron, a daughter of ex-

country, but it affords opportunities
for the prosecution of special work in
which he takes deep interest.
DR.. Hill is now in his fifty-third year,
and few men have attained such emf
hence in diplomacy and letters at his
age. He was a college president at
twenty-nipe and built up Rochester
university. He resigned this to take up
the study of international law, in
which he is regarded as an authority.
He is an expert in treaty making.
In his family relations he is fortu-
nate. His wife, who was Miss Juliet l..
Packer of Pennsylvania, is of German
descent and speaks French, Spanish
and German with ease. DIR. Hill is a
native of New Jersey.
Francis b. Loomis, present minister
to Portugal, who succeeds DR.. Hill in
the state department, is a trained news
paper man of much ability and besides
has had a considerable diplomatic ex-
perience. Under President Harrison he
was United States consul at Etienne,
France. Returning from that post, he
became editor in chief of the Cincinnati
Tribune
During the campaigns of 1884 and
1888 he had charge of the literary and
press bureaus of the Republican nation
al committee and accompanied Mr..
Blaine on his memorable campaign
from Maine to Wisconsin in 1884. In
the last campaign he was stationed at
Canton, the home of President McHin-
ley, whose personal friendship he en-
joyed and who appointed him minister
to Venezuela.
Mr.. LOOMS was recalled from Vene-
zuela because his course of action in
the Bermudez asphalt controversy was
displeasing to Castro. His course was
upheld by the administration, and he
was withdrawn only in the interest of
harmony. Immediately after that. he
was sent to Portugal
Charles Page Bryan of Illinois was
minister to Brazil until last September,
when he was named minister to Swift
zerland. Although confirmed by the SEN
ate, he has not been able to occupy that
post and will now go to Lisbon as Mr..
LOOMS successor. He is one of the
few officers in the service who are ac-
quainted with the Portuguese Ian
guage.

as private in a battery. His brother,
who commanded the battery, was
killed at Chickamauga, and young
Wright commanded it until the close of
the war.
After the war he studied law and for
| eight years was attorney general of
Tennessee. During the yellow fever
scourge in Memphis in 1873 he re-
manned in that city. He nursed the
sick, buried the dead, suppressed riots
and was instrumental in saving the
city from loot.
William Woodville Rockhill, who is
to be made vice governor of the Philip
pines, is at present the director of the
bureau of American republics. He has
had long experience in the diplomatic
service and has wide knowledge of
political conditions in the far east.
While Mr.. Rockhill will receive a
much higher salary as vice governor of
| the Philippines than he does as direct
or of the bureau of American repub-
| lies, his acceptance of the first named
place involves the REIMBURSEMENT OF
| many ambitious plans he has cherished
| looking to the extension of the present
| bureau into an institution far beyond
its present Importance and scope.
Mr.. RockhiIl has also served as Unit
ed States minister to Greece, Roumania
and Servia. He is forty-eight years
old.
While the latest exchange of dIplo-
matte posts was somewhat of a sur
prise, it really was the result and made
possible by the general shakeup of for
| eign ministers last September. The
present shift sends David Jayne Hill,
| first assistant secretary of state, as
minister to Switzerland: Francis 3.
Loomis, now minister to Portugal, sue
ceeds DIR. Hill in the state department,
and Charles Page Bryan. minister to
Switzerland, becomes minister to POr
tugal.
DR.. Hill has held the Office of assist
ant secretary of state for five years,
| longer period than that of any of his
twenty-four predecessors, excepting Mr..
Seward. The assignment to SwitZer-
land is said to be particularly pleasing
to him not only for personal reasons,
