Mayor Harrison Urges the People to
 Keep the Streets Clear.
 CHICAGO, July 1S.-The riotous con- duct of the strikers of the Kellogg Switchboard company and their sym pathizers during the last four days i'm peiled Mayor Harrison to issue proc lamation urging all people to remain away from the scene of the trouble and calling upon the rioters to cease from their work.
 The proclamation insists that all peo- pie must keep off the streets near to and refrain from gathering in crowds around the Kellogg plant and declares that all persons who do this or in any other way interfere with the work of the police by the forming of blockades will be promptly arrested and punished.
 Heavy rain prevented possible trou- ble by dispensing the mobs, and the work of handling freight from the plant of the Kellogg company was not interfered with as much as on former days.
 Unless the company recognizes the unions involved in the big strike Albert Young, president of the Teamsters' un- ion, says the city will be plunged in darkness. The plan is to shut off the power of the Chicago Edison company, which supplies the Kellogg plant. This is to be done by stopping all deliveries of coal to the company and paralyzing other. sources of supply through the diff ferent teamsters' locals.

OFFICIAL STATEN ENT.

State Department Makes Public Facts
 Regarding Jewish Petition.
 WASHINGTON, July 18.-It is an- nounced by the secretary of state that the incident created by the question of the presentation of the Jewish petition to Russia is closed The state depart ment made public the correspondence that has taken place respecting the pe- tition.
 The official statement of the facts is as follows:
 The Russian government has de- cl1ned to receive or to consider the pe- tition in relation to the condition of the Jews in Russia signed by several thou sand citizens and cabled to St. Peters burg by direction of the president.
 At the conference on Tuesday, the l4th of July, at Oyster Bay the presi- dent conferred with Messrs. Leo N. Levi, Simon Wolf and Oscar S. Straus in regard to the presentation of the pe- tition and decided to send the following dispatch to MT. Riddle, the American charge d'afaires in St. Petersburg:
 You are instructed to ask an au- -dience of the minister of foreign affairs and to make to him the following com munication:
 ''Excellency-The secretary of state instructs me to inform you that the president has received from a large number of citizens of the United States of all religious affiliations and occupy ing the highest positions in both public and private life a respectful petition addressed to his majesty the emperor relating to the condition of the Jews in Russia"
 The full text of the petition accem- panied this letter to the Russian minis ter of foreign affairs.
 This was sent on the 18th of July, and on the same day MT. Riddle was informed by the Russian minister for foreign affairs that in view of the pub licatons which had appeared in the newspapers the Russian government wished to notify him that the proposed petition would not be received under any circumstances, and that this reso- lution of the Russian government was taken independent of any considera- tion of the substance or the terms of the petition. .r--..

In neither case was liquidation. in Wall street due to depression in legitimate business, be- ing confined to the stock market and financial influences. Conditions con- tinue satisfactory outside the region of specula ton, many reports indicating further improvement. During recent months the two disturbing factors have been labor controversies and weather conditions, but each week has brought better things in these two respects un- til the outlook contains much that is encoura ging. Crops are making rapid progress, and the army of unemployed is diminishing.
 Railway traffic is heavy, earnings thus far reported for July exceeding last years by 13.6 per cent and those of 1901 by 1922 per cent. Extensive preparations are being made to move the crops and it is hoped that no block ades will occur, although there is some doubt as to whether adequate motive power can be secured. Retail trade in seasonable merchandise is fully up to the average, and there is less than the customary midsummer quiet among wholesalers, while the preparations of jobbers and manufacturers indicate confidence in large fall business.
 Bank exchanges at New York for the week were 9.6 per cent smaller than year. ago and 192 per cent less than in 1901, while at other leading cities there was loss of 8 from last year and gain of 3.4 over 1901.

REINDEER AND PRAIRIE DOG.
One Is Increasing and the Other Df- minishing i'm Numbers at
 8 Rapid Rate.

The purchase and distribution by the federal authorities of herds of Siberian reindeer in Alaska have been already, if official reports can be trusted, of no inconsiderab1e benefit to natives who have suffered privations from their own reckless extermination of game in earlier years.
 The cynomis ludovicianus is the long scientific name of the short prairie dog, which has been, over large areas of the western country, more of nuisance than many people imagine. Until re- gently he spread over 68 counties in Kansas, to say nothing of his occupancy elsewhere, damaging local crops to an extent not in keeping with his unobtru- sive dimensions All kinds of poisons were. tried on him in vain till the recent discovery of 8 new one, it's constitu- ents not disclosed, which sweeps him off the earth, root and branch, so to speak, leaving of his hide and hair neither bark nor animation; good riddance of this damaging marmot, which, with its companion in sin, the pocket gopher, has cost the western farmer no end of money by it's ravages.
