New York, May 5.-Police reserves
were called out during the day in
many different parts of New York to
Quell disorders growing out of various
strikes.
The subway strikers gathered IN
upper Broadway in such large num-
bers that a policeman was stationed
at every block between Sixty-fourth
and One Hundred and Tenth streets.
A crowd of men gathered around two
foremen at Forty second street and
Broadway, who were putting men to
work in the subway, and the feremen
were nearly rushed off their feet. Men
applying for places were threatened
and the reserves of the West Forty
second street station were ordered out
to scatter the crowd. On seeing the
police coming the crowd dispersed.
From Broadway to Fourth avenue
in Forty-second street there was a
long line of policemen guarding the
subway. A rumor that could not be
traced to reliable source reached the
ears of the police to the effect that
negroes were to be substituted for the
strikers.
Five hundred striking laborers on
the Brooklyn subway attacked men
who were working at Rockaway ave.
nue., near Liberty avenue, and forced
them to stop work. Reserves from
two precincts were necessary to re-
store order. Ten arrests were made.
Fourteen hundred employees of the
Chelsea jute mills in Greenpoint,
Brooklyn, went on strike and handled
roughly some nonunion men who tried
to 60 to work. The reserves were put

TO HEAD OFF STRIKES.
Important Action by Chicago Fedora
= ton Of Labor. - =

Chicago, May 5.-Advocates of in
dustrial peace have won victory in
the Chicago federation of labor that
will be a check on mushroom strikes
and it is believed will prevent repe-
tition of the labor controversies that
have marked the last two months.
Two weeks ago the federation re-
fused to adopt peace compact pre-
venting all unions less than year old
from starting a strike, but now it has
decided to make it's executive board
a mediator in all disputes and ordered
all affiliated locals to submit their
troubles to this board for adjustment.
This course will insure peace nego-
tiations before a strike is called and
will bring to an end such walkouts as
those at the Deering harvester plant
and in the laundries of the city. 1t
also will probably head off trouble at
the Mccormick harvester works, at
the numerous restaurants and at the
freighthouses.

GUESTS OF BENEDIcTINEs.

VISIT monte SdSSinO.
Monte Casino, Italy, May 6.-Em-
peror William and King Victor EN-
manuel arrived during the morning,
accompanied by Crown Prince Fred
erick William, Prince Eitel. the Duke
of Aosta, the Duke of Abruzzi, the
Duke of Genoa and the Count of
Turin. They were accorded an en-
thusiastic reception.
The scene was extremely pictur-
esque.. Quaint crowds of peasants,
friars and sisters gathered from miles
around the village to see the extra
ordinary spectacle of two sovereigns
and six princes at Monte Casino. The
reasons for the visit were the part
taken by Emperor William in assist
ing the Benedictine institutions in
Prussia and the promise which he
made to visit the celebrated mother
house here.
The Rev. Father Krug received the
emperor and King Emmanuel in most
cordial manner and expressed his ap-
probation of the honor conferred on
the abbey by their visit.

ANOTHER BIN BURSTS.
Fiaxseed Spols Railroad Track and
Wrecks Shed.

Duluth, May 6.-Another of the con-
crete bins OF the Peavey elevator sys-
tenn at Duluth burst during the morn
ing. With it went $4,000 bushels of
flax and as it rushed upon the ground
it poured under the railroad trestle
with such force as to raise the track
three feet, crushed through the side
of a train shed opposite and poured
grain forty feet into the house. This
is the third accident of the kind and
the fourth bin to give way. Two of
them collapsed about three years ago
and another on April 16, this year.
The accident was not unexpected,
however, for since the bin burst three
weeks ago this one has shown signs
of weakness. More than half the
grain was removed from it. The only
apparent cause for the giving way of
the bin is some settling in the foun-
dation, as there is no give in the struc-
ture ITSELF and the foundation must
be absolutely solid.

SCORE OF LIVES LOST.
cLYcE LINER SAGINAW SUNK III
A COLLISION WITH THE
STEAMER HAMILTON.
ACCIDENT OCCURS IN A F0i

Unfortunate Vessel Is Struck About
Twenty Feet From the Stern and
Cut Clear Through, Sinking in
Few Minutes-Believed That Fully
one-third of the Sixty Persons on
Board Went Down With the Ship.
New York, May GA dispatch from
Norfolk reports that the Old Domin-
ion liner Hamilton and the Clyde liner
Saginaw were in collision and that
number Of passengers were drowned.
A long distance telephone report to
the Evening World places the number
of drowned at twenty. The collision
occurred at 12:40 a. M, off Hog ISL
and. The Saginaw was bound for
Philadelphia from Norfolk. She car
ried crew of forty men and twenty
passengers. The Hamilton carried
full crew and more than one hundred
passengers. Soon after passing the
Jersey coast the Hamilton ran into a
fog, which lasted all night. 1t is be-
lieved that this fog was responsible
for the accident. The Hamilton was
soins Ct three-quarters speed off Hog
island when the passengers were sud
denly thrown rom their berths and
in an instant all was CONFUSION and as
the passengers managed to reach the
deck they learned that there had been
a collision. In the fog could be seen
dimly. across the bows of the Hamil-
ton, steamer about her own size.
Those On board the other steamship
shouted that they were sinking and
in reply to questions answered that
their boat was Clyde line steamer
and that the name was the Saginaw.
; The Saginaw had been struck about
twenty feet from the stern on the
starboard side and her stern had
been cut through as cleany as if it
had been done by men in a drydock.
The stern
Sunk Almost hmm ediateIy
and the forward part drifted several
hundred yards. AS soon as possible
the boats of the Hamilton, which had
been made ready after the collision,
were lowered. The thick fog made It
impossible for the crew of the Hamil-
!, ton to work quickly and in the few
minutes before the boats reached her
- Saginaw was going down. She
sG.JIed slowly and then went down
with a suction that almost drew the
heats of the Hamilton after her. In
the darkness could be heard the cries
of those on the Saginaw. In the wa
ter. and elinging to. wreckage was q
number of persons and as many as
possible of these were pulled into the
boats of the Hamilton. When the sur
vivors were taken on board the Ham
ilton they were made comfortable and
after waiting around to pick up any
one that might have clung to wreck
age the Hamilton proceeded on her
way. She was only slightly damaged.
The Saginaw was sunk in ten fathoms
of water and her masts were left
sticking out of water.
According to dispatch from Fort
ress Monroe the number of persons
rescued by the Hamilton was twenty
nine This report places the number
Of drowned at thirty.
Hog island, off which the wreck oc-
CURED, is on the coast of Virginia, a
short distance above Cape Charles.
Washington, May GA special to
the Star from Newport News says
twenty y-nine of the passengers of the
Saginaw were drowned and that nine
were rescued.

ALL LAUNDRIEs CLOSE DOWN.
Chicago Employers Will Not Attempt
to Resume,

Chicago, May 5.-Serious as is the
shortage in clean linen in Chicago this
week promises to bring a far worse
condition of affairs unless the laundry
workers. strike is ended. Rather than
continue doing business with a Grip
pied working force every large steam
laundry in the city has closed down.
The proprietors have decided that
even the suburban firms must lock
out their workers and have sent a
committee to Evanston to request the
firms there to join in the fight.
The hand laundries of the city are
overrun with pleas, but should they
run day and night they cannot relieve
the situation The Chinese laundry
men are working overtime and enjoy

London, May 6.-The opposition to
the proposal of the chancellor of the
exchequer, Mr.. Richie, to abolish the
duty on grain, which has been voiced
by numerous chambers of agriculture,
crystallized in a meeting of the asso-

don during the day. With only three
dissentients the large assemblage,
after a heated attack on Mr.. Ritchie's s
"wobbling policy in connection with
this tax" passed q resolution strong
ly condemning the proposed action
and appointing a deputation to call on
Premier Balfour and confer with him
on the subject. It is not believed
the protest will have any effect.

FOR CONQUEST OF HAYTI

PIcKENS CHOSEN TO LEAD

Part in the. Scheme and Eventually
Be Chosen President of the Society.
Form of Government to Be Set Up
Planned to Be Somewhat SociaIistc
in Nature.
New York, May civilian Pick
ems, the negro who won the junior eX-
hibitiOn prize at Yale, has been asked
to become the head of a new Afro
American republic to be established
in Hayti, says a World dispatch from
New Haven, Conn. In his Grafton,
which won the prize, Pickens dis
cussed Hayti's freedom and declared
against it.
The scheme is to effect conquest
of the island of Hayti by American
negroes and to set up government
Utopia1 in character. The junta Of
the movement is at Sturgis, KY, and
the correspondent of the society is N
L. Musgrove. He asks that Mr.. Pick
ems act as secretary and board mem
Yale man would eventually be chosen
as president of the society," It. is also
suggested that he take the lecture
platform and raise funds for the Or
ganiZation.
Mr.. Pickens, when seen, said he had
the matter under consideration and
would seek advice before enlisting his
services in the movement. Discuss
ing the plan he said:
innovations and novelties of gov
ernment are proposed after Hayti has
been overcome. While the govern
ment would be republican in its polit-
ical formation it would be admins
tered as gigantic corporation, of
which all members of the society
would be stockholders. All land titles
and franchises are to be vested ir
the state. All dangerous and incor.
rigible criminals will be provisioned
and set adrift on the sea to seek other
shores.
agriculture, manufacturing and
all other profitable industries are to
be encouraged.
