GREENWICH PALACE.
de Fontenoy in the New
 York Tribune.

Marquise de Fontenoy in the New
 York Tribune.
 A scheme is on foot in England to revive the former glories Of Greenwich Palace as a royal residence. with the idea of bringing the crown in closer touch than at present with that toil- ing mass Of humanity which inhabits the east end of the mighty British metropolis. It may be recalled to mind that Greenwich was the residence of the Kings of England as far back as in the thirteenth century. Henry VIII and his daughters. Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth, were both born there, and King Charles II pulled down the ancient palace and errected the present stately and beautiful pile of buildings, according to the designs of Sir Chris topher Wren and Inigo Jones. With its terrace of a thousand feet in length skirting the broad reach of the river, and with old Greenwich Park. full orcen- tenarian trees, as background, it is in every way worthy home for the mon arch of agreat empire. King James II spent much time at Greenwich, but his daughter, Queen Mary, and her hus- band, William of Orange, converted 1t into a home for old and wounded sea- men of the Royal Navy. that is to say, into a species of maritime counterpart of the Invalides of Paris. This was, however. abandoned about 40 years ago, and since then the greater part of the palace has stood empty, only a small portion thereof being devoted to the use of the Royal Naval College, for which accommodation could easily be found elsewhere.
 Of course, the one drawback to the scheme is that the Thames is terribly polluted below London Bridge, and that the stream at Greenwich is apt to be foul smelling. especially at low tide. But when the works have been com pIeted, which by means of a series of huge locks will render the river from Gravesend up independant of the tides, this drawback will of course disappear, and it would certainly be no hardship for either the King, the Prince and Princess of Wales, or some others members of the royal family. to make use of the palace as suburban river side residence once more, even if only for two or three weeks. thus according to the masses in the east end of Londor Q glimpse of that royalty for whose benefit they are firmly convinced they are taxed.

THE U. S COURT
OF CLAIMS
White Intermarried Cherokee
Citizens Case Sent There
for Adjudication.

The senate yesterday agreed to an
amendment giving the United States
court Of claims jurisdiction in the
case Of the intermarried whites in the
Cherokee nation. This means that
the right Of enrolment and to ulti-
mately share in the distribution Of
land in the Cherokee nation must be
tried in the court Of claims and prob
ably appealed to the supreme court Of
the United States. The matter was
referred to the court Of claims last
year for an opinion as to whether they
should be enrolled as Cherokee citi
zens, and the opinion was never rem
dered. Now the case will be entered
on the docket and be heard in the
regular order of business.

No STRIKE
PROB ABLE
local Labor Unions Refuse to
Assume Responsibility
AgitatOrs Disbanded.

A mass meeting Of laborers was held
ht the opera house last night for the
purpose Of deyising ways and means
wor adjusting matters between the
waterworks and sewerage contractors
lnd their employees.
The meeting, which was largely at
tended by laborers, was called to order
BY Henry Workman, local president
bf the American Federation Of Labor.
The secretary Of that organization be-
ing absent, II. e. Ridenhour was Sc
ected for that position. After stat
#ng the object Of the meeting, the
chairman called for expressions from
hny one present who wished to talk
Roland Nave (colored) was the first
speaker and announced that, although
he did not work in the ditch, he be-
ieyed the men so engaged should re-
eeiye 81 per day Of ten hours or s150
iOr eight hours, or strike.
Al at this juncture the chair called on
al present who worked in the ditch
TO stand up, that he might know just
how many were really interested in
1.-THE question at issue. Less than one
.half the number present rose to their
feet, thus demonstrating that many
Of the most outspoken IN favor Of
drastic measures had nothing at stake
and, therefore, must be classed as agi-
tators only, since they have never been
employed IN the ditch.
Tat Hawkins and PHI Buford, both
colored, neither Of whom work ia the
bitches, also spoke infavor Of striking.
Mr. Dixon was the only man present
TO suggest that il might be better 20
work a little harder in the hope Of
getting a raise in wages rather than
to enter into a strike the final out
|come Of which could not be foretold.
Chairman Workman talked on the
Subject OF unionism, its powers and
hutics, not overlooking the evil as well
rs the good IN such organization.
On call from the chair, il was as
certained that fully half of those pres
ent were non-union men. who We're
seeking the sanction Of the unions 10
strike, but would in nowise be under
control Of the unions should such ac-
tion be taken. This condition Of af-
fairs. when brought out by well in
formed members Of the local organiza-
tions, opened the eyes Of union men
and they refused to shoulder tho re-
sponsibility OF a strike which would
be beyond their power 70 control
The meeting dissolved without any
definite action being taken, the con-
census Of opinion, As expressed, being
that each individual had a right to
exercise the great American privilege
Of returning to his labors in the ditch |
or not just he as chose.

to the horse business. The other oc-
cupantS of the patrol wagon said that
the horse was not on the sidewalk,
but on the Gavitt lawn, where it had a
right to be. Dusenberry said he saw
it when still two blocks away, and
it was on the sidewalk. The defense
should have introduced a number of
willing witnesses to prove that DuSen-
berry can't see two blocks at one
stretch, even on a clear day, but failed
to do so, and the conviction followed.
The manufacturing gentleman was
reasonably sure that the old pony,
which has been a pet of the younger
Mr.. Gavitt for the past 25 years, had
in no way infringed on the sidewalk
ordinance, so they took an appeal to
the district court.

Undecided How to Act.

Wichita, Kan, Sept. 30.-The question
of whether or not the state w. c. T. U.
will accept the building in Topeka do
mated by Mrs. Carrie Nation was left I'M
decided at the meeting yesterday after
noon The matter was taken up at
o'clock. There was a lengthy discussion
on the subject
The supporters of the proposition argued
that it would enable the union to edu-
cate young women and send them over
the state to do temperance work. Mrs.
Nation in offering the building did on
board of managers composed of members
of the Prohibition party. As the w. c. 7.
U. IS a non-partisan organization the OPP
position contend that it would be uncon-
stitutional to accept the gift under such a
condition. The expense of operating the
school was also given as a reason why
the building should not be accepted.
Mrs. Nation, who offered the building,
was present and addressed the conven-
ton concerning the gift
