CHECKED BY GOMPERS
CIVIC FEDERATION DEBATE WAS
TENDING TOWARD SOCIALISM,
When the Presiding Omcer Called n
Ha1t-Many Topics Under Discuss
sion ON Friday.

CHICAGO, Oct. 16-Although questions of
dispute and of great interest to the wage
Garner and the employer, such as the "open"
shop, methods of paying wages, piece work
and bonus, came UP before the conference
of the National Civic Federation to-day, no
action has yet been decided on that will inn
prove the relations of the principals in the
controversy. However, it is not considered
improbable that before the session is
brought to a close some action that will aid
in bringing labor and capital closer together
may be taken. A number of the speakers
at the session to-day favored this, saying
the occasion was opportune.
Among those in attendance to-day were
Henry c. Hunter, commissioner of the Metal
Trades Association of New York; Marcus
NJ. Marks, president of the National Cloth
ing Manufacturers Association of New
York: j. n. Gum, OF New York; James Nc
Connell president of the International As

Structural Iron Workers; John Phillips, of
BROOKLYN; James p. Archibald of New
York; former Lieutenant Governor Coates.
of Colorado, and DIR. Josiah Strong, of New
York.
Laboring men predominated in the pro-
ceedings, and at one time, when the discus
sion becoming general, several in the
audience arose and talked on questions

PAY CHECKS DUPLICATED
ALLEGED FORGERY ON THE c., VI. &
ST. p. RAILWAY COMPANY.
Detectives Think They Have I'm
earthed Frauds That May Reach
Thousands of Dollars.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Oct. 16.-Special de-
tectives of the Chicago. Milwaukee & St.
Paul road have been assigned to investi-
gate what may prove to be most extern
sive series of forgeries.
Whether the amount involved is many
thousands of dollars or the single instance
that has come to light is the sole example
of the work of the forgers, is not known.
The forgery consists of a duplication, ac-
cording to statements of officials of the
road, of the pay checks of the company.
A few days ago. according to the story told
Col. John A. Hinsey, who is at the head
of the detective service OF the company
check was received at the paymasters
office in this city that had been cashed at
an interior point. The check was made
payable TO Jack Dillon" and was for $685.
1t was on form similar to that used by
the company, being an exact duplicate of
the railway check, save that it was print
ed instead of engraved. 1t bore what pur-
ported to be the signatures of the two Of
ficials of the auditing department that are
necessary to make the check valid and that
of the assistant paymaster. The check
bore the Endorsement of the supposed Jack
Dillon" and those of others through whose
hands il had passed.
Special detectives of the company are
now engaged in an effort to trace il back
TO the person who originally received it.
Up to to-day IL is said that only one Of
the forged checks has appeared at the pay
masters Office. 1t is considered by the de-
tectives, however, TO be incredible that
only one check was printed, filled in and
signed.

MANY SOLDIERS AT HOKODAT
AN ARMY OF 100000 MEN CONCEN-
TRATED BY THE JAPANESE.
Torpedoes Laid in the Ports of the
MikadO's Empire-Russia Build
ing Forts in Korea.

LONDON, Oct. T-Specal correspondents
continue to send in alarmist reports of the
Russo-Japanese situation.- The correspond
ent at Chee-Foo of the Morning Post has
gone to Wei-Hai-Wei whence he cables:
II am informed in trustworthy quarters
that Japan has landed troops at Ping-Yan,
at the outlet of Korea bay. 1t is currently
reported that the conference of the Russian
and Japanese authorities has been futile"
The correspondent at Hakodat, Japan, of
the Daily Mail announces unusual military
activity there, saying 100000 men have been
concentrated at Hokodat in readiness for
embarkation in event of hostilties The
ing laid in the ports of western Japan.
Other of the Daily Mails correspondents
report the recall by Japan of her military
commission. which has been examining the
Swiss hospital system, and the uneasiness
of Russian authorities as to the capabiIity
of Port Arthur to resist attack from it's
land approaches.
The Daily Mail points out that Hakodat
is the port which would be used in the
event of Japan sending an expedition
against Vladivostock, and says that such
a large concentration of troops there shows
that part of the Japanese army has been
quietly mobilized.
1t was rumored on the Cardiff Coal Ex-
change yesterday that both Russia and
Japan were seeking large purchases of
Welsh coal.
Cabling from Tien-Tsin. the correspond
ent Of the Standard says a visitor to Yon-
gampho. Korea, reports one Russian fort
already built there and another in course
of construction. The Russians are said to
be extending the boundary of their leased
territory south of Tae-San.
The Morning Post, discussing the rumors
OF the partition of Korea and of the erec-
ton of Russian forts at Yongamopho, ETC.,
declares that under no circumstances would
Japan consent TO the partition of Korea,
because to permit Russia TO absorb por-
tion would only be a prelude to the annex
alton of the whole of Korea. The paper
adds that the Anglo-Japanese agreement
provides expressly for the maintenance of
Korean integrity, and it is therefore un-
likely that Russia has erected the forts
referred to.

A dispatch from Salonica Yesterday

the life and soul of the insurgent opera

he was a boy of fourteen he saw his father
and grandfather tortured and dragged in
chains TO a dungeon. He has been de-
scribed as "the msot romantic figure in
the Balkans" He was popularity beloved
and stated to be the real instigator of the
abduction of Miss Ellen NJ. Stone, the
American missionary, in September, 1901,
in order TO procure through her ransom
funds to enable the Macedonian revolution
ary committee to organize the insurrection.
In 1895 Sarafoff. after serving as an officer
In the Bulgarian army, formed band of
desperadoes TO raid Turkish territory. Since
then he headed nearly 400 daring raids into

movement in Macedonia his name has con-
previously reported to have been killed. He

Alaskan boundary ommissiOners
Have Not Yet Taken a Vote on
the Matter i'm Dispute.

LONDON, Oct. 16.-It is stated on the
highest authority that the announcement
made by the London Morning Advertiser
to-day, that the decision of the Alaskan
Boundary Commission virtually comedies
the American case, is entirely untrue. The
commission, thus far has reached no de-
cision, and no vote mas been taken even in
the private sessions, which would indicate
Chief Justice Alverstones position. 1t is
quite true that the general trend of opin-
ion among those connected with the tribunal.
aside from the commissioners, is that the
ultimate decision will be in favor OF Ameri-
ca, but there is yet not the slightest war
rant for saying il has been reached.
Confirming the statement that no decision
in the Alaskan boundary arbitration has
been reached the st. James Gazette this
afternoon adds: There is. however. in

as judge, Miller appearing for the gov

Miller Outcault. of Cincinnati, as counsel
for Ryan. who also was present. Miller
then advocated that a fraud order issue
against Ryan, but on the presentations OF
Outcault that Ryan x Co. would eliminate
all Objectionable features of the turf com
mission and guarantee enough deposits
TO pay all certificates, Christiancy allowed
the concern TO continue on the observance
OF certain stipulations that were made In
