would serve 100 families or more, have
been applied for, than there is money to
pay for them. In establishing new routes
we shall always give the preference to
those proposing to serve the largest num-
Der Of families. For instance, in my own
state, Kansas, have been told that it is
very difficult, in the western counties, to
locate routes which will serve 100 fami-
lies. I have replied, expressing my regret
at the fact, but saying that other states
were ready to supply the requisite num-
Der Of families per route and would have
to be considered first If we had enough
money to establish routes Independently
Of the number of families served, this
new order would not be necessary, but
under the circumstances now existing it
is necessary.
$50 far as know now, no existing
routes in any Of the states will be dis
turbed. The question has not even been
considered have complaints on my
desk that certain routes in some of the
western states do not deliver 500 pieces
Of mail per month. In time that question
will be investigated and If the charges
are well grounded. 1t is possible such
routes may be abandoned in favor Of those
proposing to serve more people. But the
Investigation, If made at ALL Is a good
many months in the future. I do not res
call whether any Of these alleged short
routes are in Minnesota or the Dakotas
| or not"

quent upon them, and promoting good
feeling between capital and labor. In the
future all grievances, no matter what may
be the bone Of contention, arising between
employer and employe in the building
trades will be submitted to a board of
arbitration, and there will be no suspen-
sion in building operations during the
dispute or controversy.
Samuel w. Gompers is largely respon-
sible for this agreement, which has been
assented to by the Employers Associa-
ton Of Building Trades the District Of
Columbia Council Of Allied Trades and
the Central Labor Union, an affiliated
body Of the American Federation OF La
Dor. Those who are parties to the agree
ment assert that the plan win be
adopted In other large cities.
Text Of Agreement.
The agreement entered into provides
that. This board shall consist Of ten
members, equally divided between the
associations represented The members
Of the board shall be elected annually by
their respective associations at their regu-
lar meetings for the election Of officers.
Whenever any matter is referred to the
board, before considering the case the
board shall agree upon an umpire, and
the umpire thus chosen must not be con-
nected with the building trades He may
act as presiding officer and shall have
the deciding vote.
The duty of this board shall be to con
slider such matters of mutual interest and
concern to employers and workmen as
may be regularly referred to it by either
of the parties concerned and to transmit
Its conclusions thereon to each associa-
ton concerned for its government Spec
ial meetings shall be held when either OF
the parties desires to submit any cues.
t1on to the board for settlement
"A majority vote shall decide all ques-
tions, and three members Of the board
representing each party shall constitute
quorum In no case shall any matter be
considered with an unequal representa-.
ton. Should any member be directly in.
terested In the matter to be considered
he shall not be eligible to serve on The
case and the president of the association
he represents shall appoint a substitute
In his place.

RUSSIA KEEPS QUIET
News OF the American Petition Kept From
the People.

49, F..
st. Petersburg, July S.-President
Roosevelt's decision to forward to the
Russian government the petition In be-
half OF the Russian Jews has not been
published here. The foreign office has
made the following statement:
1.-THE car alone can decide whether the
petition will be received, but Alexander
III. would never have received such a Pc
tition. The petition from the Guild hall
meeting, called by the lord mayor Of Lon
don in 1891, was returned thru the foreign
office as announcement" The foreign Of
flee hopes the Americans will not invite
such slight. They would resent an anti
lynching petition. The foreign office has
no special interest in the question, except
a desire that international relations re-
main unframed, since the matter Is purely
domestic and belongs to another ministe-
rial department.
| In an article which, in official circles,
| is declared to be inspired, the Novoe
| Vremya combats the claim Of the United
States government that Russia should
grant American Jews free access to the
| Russian territory" ~
| The Novoe Vremya declares that If
all American citizens were admitted to
| Russia, ''it would not be long before
| thousands Of Jews who have left Russia
for various reasons would return in the
guise Of American citizens. just as they
are doing in Rumania II Russia acceded
| to the United States wish it could not
refuse to grant similar privileges in the
case Of other countries, and would soon
undergo a perfect invasion of foreign
| Jews.
I The Novoe Vremya also refers to the
! United States restricting immigration and
says: while Russia in no way assumes
| the right Of criticizing the internal
| measures Of the United States, on the
other hand 1t win not tolerate the least

are treated with salicilic acid and boraclc
acid as preservatives, and are otherwise
adulterated. These will be excluded from
the United States when the new law Is
put into full force.
Notices of the new law have been sent
eign governments, large exporters and
others interested, and just as soon as the
agricultural department is satisfied that
the knowledge of the new law has been
sufficiently disseminated it will be en-
forced strictly. DR.. w. H. Wiley, chief
Of the bureau of chemistry, will test sam
pies of all cargoes coming into this coun-
try to determine their purity.
Speaking Of his new work and Of the
effects that will be produced by the law,
DR.. Wiley said:
Dr.. Wiley Explains.
Complaint has been made that the
government will be put to extra expense
in carrying out this new series of regula-
lions. This Is not the case. Appraisers
take samples of imports to assess them,
and it will be no more trouble for them to
take samples for our tests when we want
them. We do not expect any additional
expense except in the laboratory work
here in Washington, which has already
been provided for.
THE suggestion that we will delay the
entry of shipments has been made, but
is not well founded. We have made sc
many tests Of the kind that the samples
can be submitted to us, the examination
made and the verdict rendered in time
! to prevent any material delay.
We anticipate that the notices we have
sent out will put the exporters on theil
guard and we hope to see the law become
strictly effective without the seizure Of
half dozen cargoes. We mean to BIZ
strict and have let the exporters know
as much. To seize and condemn an en-
tire shipment or cargo is a serious mat
ter to the man who tried to deceive thu
officials and it is not likely that man,
will take the risk. One or two cases o
this extreme step may be necessary, bu
after that things should go along SMOOTH.

WILD TIME AT ,ToNKA
Storm Said to Be the Worst Ever Known

Storm Said to Be the Worst Ever Known
There.
Minnetonka felt the full fury OF last
nights storm, and one man who has lived
at the lake twenty years, is sure that It'll
surpassed in fury any he ever witnessed
there. He was in cottage 100 feet from
his own when the storm broke and was
unable to see his cottage thru the blind
ing rain, altho anxiety for it's safety
sharpened his eyes.
Perhaps the rain was not actually
driven thru stout planks, but 1t would
be hard to convince people who have
what they regarded as weather-proof
houses, and still were soaked The rain
was driven with such force that it found
every crevice and in many Of the cottages
penetrated to almost every portion Of
them. Altogether many of the lake resi-
dents had a very uncomfortable night.
1t was necessary for the men of near
ly every household to get out in the
storm to protect their boats. unless they
had been taken care Of unusually well,
and the number Of boats more or less
damaged was very large On the upper
lake II. B. Gates boathouse was blown
down and his fine launch, the Winogene
was considerably damaged A tree blew
down at the same place and battered a
corner Of the cottage In its fall. Sunken
Or beached sail and row boats scattered
the shores this morning. AT Breezy
Point Milo Phillips row boat was lifted
entirely over the dock and landed on top
OF another boat. u 4D98H
The chief damage was from the blow
ing over of trees and many cattage own
ers are lamenttng the loss of fayorites.
This cause, added by some washing Of
the tracks, delayed the Milwaukee trains
| this morning and the residents along this
line were obliged to take the other roads
into town. BY noon, however, trains
were running on their regular schedule.

MI u

Many Northwestern Routes to BE Adam
doned at Once.
Special to The Journal.
Omaha, July 3.-The rural free delivery
of mail turnout the west has been practi-
.cally wiped out by the recent ruling OF
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
Bristow, who has ruled that no free deliv-
cry route shall be continued unless 100
families are served and 5000 pieces Of
mail matter handled monthly.
The ruling is the result Of Bristow's
recently announced position on the rural
delivery system, in which he declared that
rural delivery has been making too rapid
strides and must go slower. Superintend-
ent Rathbun Of the free delivery said to-
day:
1.-THE enforcement Of that order will
wipe out 80 per cent Of the routes In this
district, comprising Minnesota, both Da-
kotas, Nebraska and Iowa, and will also
affect other western states in the same
way, especially Colorado, Montana, Wyo-
ming and Utah.
All the field men have been called In for
consultation and a modification will be
asked for. The farmers thruout the
states affected are preparing petitions
which they will forward to Washington,
asking that the rule shall not apply to the
thinly settled western states.

hour. In st. Paul, where, however, the
storm did little damage, the wind moved
so miles an hour for three consecutice
minutes. The local wind, the liveliest
that has been recorded since last summer,
blew down loose branches, small trees,
some poles and signs. and many wires.
Half a hundred telephone wires were made
useless along the Twin City system and
as many more along the poles Of the
Northwestern company. The long dis
tance lines Of both companies were still
more unfortunate. No messages could be-
telephoned to Duluth, and the lines to-
Anoka and Lake Minnetonka were all that
gave good service thru the night.
Electric lights were not affected except
at some private plants and at a few points
in the northern and western suburbs,
where street lamps Of the General Electric
company were extinguished. Little in
convenience was reported by the telegraph
companies.

Washington, July 3.-The new pure food
