induce the government to negotiate
new treaties with France, Germany,
England and other European coun-
tries. 1t is the conviction of the
most thoughtful minds of this country
that the prosperity of American agri-
culture, commerce and manufacturing
industries depends in a preeminent de-
gree upon the foreign markets to
which our surplus products may be
exported"
Herbert Bradley, traffic manager of
the federation, in a short address,
pointed out the apparent disregard
on the part of the millers of the de-
tails of shipping the product. Flour
bags are often placed in cars he
said, that have just discharged a car
go of coal. BY the time the bags
reach a seaport and suffer several
transfers before they reach the for
eign dealer they do not present a de-
sirable appearance"

Detroit Specially - The good
qualities of American -four are fully
appreciated by the English consumers.
At the first convention of the Millers'
National Federation, which opened
here yesterday with 800 delegates
present, a memorial from the British
-four buyers was read in which they
declared that the American product
was preferable to that received from
any other foreign country and urged
the American millers to ecure the
establishment of a more satisfactory
transportation rate 81 as to compete
with the European trade.
Transportation rates and the reci-
procity treaties negotiated by Commits
sioner Kasson are two of the most
important subjects that the millers
will consider at their three days ses-
sion. They allege that the railroads
and ocean lines Disseminated against
-four in favor of wheat in making
freight rates.
In, his address yesterday afternoon
President B. A. Eckhart of Chicago
gave a comprehensive resume of the
milling industry as it exists today.

Gently have failed to show a proper
appreciation of the Importance of the
milling industry in that they not only
refuse to make fair and reasonable
freight rates for carrying the product
of the mills, but actually discriminate
against -four for export, although such
a differential is unwarranted by the
relative cost of carrying the commo-
dities. The ocean steamship lines are
still discriminating against -four for
export in favor of wheat for export,
thus giving the foreign miller an I'M
due advantage over the American mil
Ter.
THE action OF foreign countries in
closing their doors against our flour,
either by a high protective tariff or a
registration duty, should stimulate the
members of the federation, as well as
the millers of the country, to favor a

MANY FAIR EXHIBITS INSURED In LONDON

A very interesting demand for in
surance upon exhibits at the st. Louis
Exposition has arisen at Lloyds,
London, where risks ~aggregating
more than $780, 900 have been placed.
Very much larger sums will be writ
ten as the time for shipping draws
near, exhibitors seeming to be par
ticularly anxious to secur their pro-
lection unusually early this year. This
haste is natural in view of the sharp
advance in rates at the time of the
Chicago Exposition in 1898. So great
was the inquiry for insurance then
that as high as 5 iguineas per cent
was paid for the risk only between
May and October, the period of the
exhibition.
Present assurances are effected on
a basis varying from / to 10 gum
cas- per cent, according to the risks
incurred. In some cases the policies
cover the whole risk, including break
age, sea damage, and total loss aris-
ing from any cause from the time the
goods leave the warehouse until they
return to their destination after the
exhibition. In other contracts only
total loss is covered either by fire or
wreckage at sea Or both. Every class
iication of exhibit, which includes
both English and German goods, is
severed by these policies, but they
chiefly consist of those which require
great care in handling, such as glass
wars, s~tatuary, pictures, and stuffed
animals. 1t is anticipated that good
rates Of premium will be maintained,
for at the Chicago exposition several
fires occurred which in some cases
resulted in considerable loss for the
underwriters. For this reason exhibit
tors who can guarantee that their
show goods will be placed in perma-
nent buildings can effect their insur'
ance on better terms Than those who
exhibit in temporary structures.
Such risks rank among the most
interesting written by underwriters
anywhere. In some cases a variety of
different hazards are covered, which

Seven Hundred in Chicago
Break Contracts
MUST STAND BY AGREEMENTS
The Suspended Men Are Members of
the B1acksmiths' and the
Transfers Unions

Chicago, June 10.-Radical action
was taken yesterday by powerful Ia
Dor leaders to check contract break
ing by labor organizations. Seven
hundred union men find themselves
suspended from membership for fail
ing to live up to agreements signed in
supposed good faith with their employ
ers.
The drastic action of suspension Is
believed by students of the industrial
problem to carry a more wholesome
lesson than injunctions or civil suits
The International Brotherhood of
Blacksmiths and the Transfers Ma
tional union are the organizations
which have administered this lesson.
The two DEGREES, issued in separate
cases, we're both issued after careful
Investigations, in which the suspended
men were given ample opportunity to
defend themselves.
The International Brotherhood of
Blacksmiths found its Chicago local,
No. IA, guilty of INSTRUMENTATION in
refusing to live up to an agreement
signed with the Chicago Metal Trades
association, which was broken by a
strike in sympathy with the helpers,
who went out two weeks ago.
The Transfers National union de-
prived 300 of it's st. Louis members
of their union cards for failure to
obey the dictates of their officers,
cease supporting the freight handlers
in their strike in that city, and return
to work.
For the last two months i%rresponsi-
BILE labor leaders have been calling
strikes, regardless of agreements,
verbal and written. Business men
have become alarmed, and even the
rank and file of organized labor has
voiced it's protest. This feeling of
disapproval reached the stage last
week where it had to be recognized,
and the blacksmiths and the team

Wholesalers Of the West and
North Organize
$1O,OOO,O 900 CONCERN IN OHIO
The Wholesale Grocers of Canada have
Organized a Combine with Head
quarters at Toronto

Chicago special)-A combination of
wholesale grocery companies, with a
capital of $40, 000, 900, is being formed
in Ohio by Frank G. Let's of Chicago,
who is vice president Of the National
Grocer company, of which H. N. Hig-
inbotham is the head. Announcement
was also made yesterday of the organ
ization Of the Canada Groceries COM
pany, limited, having a capital of S.
100000 and headquarters at Toronto.
This company includes nearly all of
the large grocery concerns in Canada.
According to Mr. Let's, who is pres
ident of the Western Grocer company,
owning and operating a number of
grocery houses in Iowa, Minnesota
and Missouri, this plan of cooperation
of jobbers has been decided upon as
the best way to bring to terms the
various trusts with which grocers have
to deal to avoid determination. Mr..
Let's says the combinations he has
formed are not trusts and that event
ually it is expected to organize groc-
cry houses from New York to the
Rocky mountains. Combinations will
be organized in New York soon.
The stock in the Ohio combination
will all be owned by Ohio people, most
ly by those interested in or owning
grocery houses. Mr.. Let's and his
brother, N. M. Let's, who is in Ohio
now completing the details of the
scheme, will not control any stock, but
the former probably will be president
of the united companies, of which
there will be about 80. Practically
every jobbing point in Ohio will be
combined under one head. There
are about 46 jobbing points in the state
and approximately 100 wholesale groc-
cries.
Mr.. Let's says nearly all the gro
cerymen have signified their willing

be steering its course in this direction.

Fol more than three weeks the pro-
phet has been pointing his telescope,
figuratively, of course, toward every
corner of our land for a storm cloud,
but each morning his doleful prophecy
has been: Fair today and tomorrow"
From Maine to Virginia the farmers

ly seems that the financial loss by the
drouth in the East will be greater
than the loss by flood in the West.
HAS the Western inundation any
thing to do with our scarcity of rain?'
the reporter asked.
Eyes, indeed" he replied. you see
the high atmospheric pressure which
has been prevailing over the Eastern
states would not let a storm in. They
have emptied themselves over the
Mississippi valley-hence the floods"
What are the necessary conditions
for a good hard storm in these parts.
Mr.. Forecaster?"

This is certainly the worst spring

but it does not seem naturally that it
should keep up much longer"
During the month of May less than
one-third of an inch of rain fell here
During the last generation the only
May which compares in any way with
this was that of 1880, when a little
more than four-fifths of an inch fell

THE EASTERN DRouTH.
The Loss on Account of It Will Reach
Millions.

Boston special.)-At Office of the
Massachusetts board of agriculture it
was said that unless rains and warm
weather came at once the estimate of
a loss to the farmers of New England
of $40, 900, 900 will not prove too large.
This estimate is based on the value
of agricultural products in a normal
veal of $135, 900, 900, divided as fol
lows:
Hay and forage, $43,5 SOC, 900; cereals,
1900, 900; vegetables, 1884, SOC, 900.
The loss on these crops is already
as per cent and the probable loss on
live stock and livestock products ow-
ing to the failure of hay and forage
brings the total loss up to considerably
more than $4,000, 900.
Drouth conditions throughout New
England are about equally bad. In
Vermont the hay crop is already so far
gone that hay is selling at retail in
the country at $50 a ton, an unpre-
cedented price.
In New England hay and grain prom
Uses to be almost complete failures,
and in Maine, where great quantities
of potatoes are raised, ruin faces the
farmers.
In this state the tobacco crop will
be a failure, and truck farmers are
already ploughing up their crop to get
the land ready to plant again when
rain does come.
Rhode Island and Connecticut are
slightly better off, owing to the char
acter of the soil, than northern New
England, but their losses will be en-
ormous.

sters were the first to realize its
strength.
On Monday, May IS, the black
smiths helpers, employed in the shops
controlled by the Chicago Metal
Trades association, went out on a
strike. They had made wage and
hour demands a month before, but had
agreed that, pending settlement or
arbitration, there should be no lock-
out OF strike" This restriction they
found irksome and tossed it aside.
When the helpers struck the black
smiths of local No. Ia refused to con-
tinue at work, although they, too. had
an agreement which stipulated that
there shall be no strike or sympa-
thetic strike" during it's life. Their ac-
ton reused the wrath of the Metal
Trades association, which protested
to the Chicago officials of the union.
Business Agent ]. P. Williams Of
the blacksmiths tried to get the men
back to work, but they refused to
go. He then telegraphed to the in
ternational president, John Slocum,
who sent Vice President P. H. Cum
minis of Cleveland, o., to investigate.
A week ago Slocum also arrived in
the city and became c%onversant with
the situation.
A second attempt was made to force
the striking blacksmiths to live up to
their contract, and, when they refused,
Slocum and Cummins took drastic &C.
ton. They notified the men that if
they did not resume work their local
would be suspended and they would
be without standing in the labor
world. Even this threat had no eff.
feet and the action was taken.
The officers Of the local were noti-
fed that it was suspended and the 400
members received individual cards in
forming them they were no longer in
good standing.
Il would prefer to have ten men in

cree, than 400 who cannot live up to
