INDUSTRIES AFffCIfD
Prices of Meat. the Packers Claim
at Chicago Will Not Be Raised at
Present.-Strike Situation at Chi
cago, Kansas City and Omaha.

Chicago, July 13.-With no sign of
weakening on either side, the only ray
of hope in the butchers strike situa
tion today was the possibility that
arbitration may intervene to stop
labor war fraught with suffering and
privation to the strikers and heavy
loss to the packers, and higher priced
meats. In addition to the fifty thous
and employees already ON the strike
upwards of thirty thousand more are
involved indirectly, and most of them
will probably be made idle before
night. The strike affects the branch
industries where such articles as but
terine, soap, buttons and combs are
manufactured. The employees of the
canning departments have gone out
in body. In Chicago 10000 persons
are already out, and the number will
be increased before the end of the
week to $4,000.
The Office employees at the stock
yards were put to work today in the
packing houses as substitutes. The
superintendents claim that all vacan-
cies could be filed in few days. The
delay of the packers to agree to arbi-
tration is responsible for the strike,
said President Donnelly of the Butch
er Workmens union. ''They did not
make known here their position un-
til after the unions declared a strike"
1t will be an expensive war, but ap
parently will have to be fought out.
If the packing plants are idle for
two months it will eat up all their
dividends for two years.

THE CANADA FRUIT EXHIBIT.
Surprising Display Of Apples and
Other Fruits at the st. Louis
Worlds Fair.

st. Louis. July 13.-Leaving out
California, Canada quite holds her
own among the states and countries
of America in her fruit display at the
Worlds Fair. Even with California
included, when real domestic value
is considered, there is no exhibit in
the horticultural pavilion that COM
pares with that of Canada. Oranges
are beautiful to look at and luscious
to eat, but they can never take the
place in household economy tha:
the apple will, and for apples of high
quality and almost endless variety
Canada stands matchless.
In her display of apples alone Can
ada is showing ninety-four varieties
in their natural state, just taken out
of cold storage. In addition to this
fully fifty choice varieties are dis
played in bottles preserved i'm liquid
compounds. The average Fair visit
or expresses his surprise even at
this apple display, but when he is
confronted with from forty to fifty
varieties of choice pears, an equal
number of varieties of plums, seventy
different kinds of grapes, cherries in
endless variety. and to cap all long
list of the choicest peaches. he lifts
his brows in astonishment and asks,
Does all this fruit grow in Canada ?"
In the smaller fruits Canada is
equally well to the front.

SMALL FIGHTS
Russian Cavalry Attacks Japanese
. Right Flank.-Russians Attack at
Mo Tion and are RepuIsed With
Heavy Loss.

st. Petersburg, July 13.-An Official
communication from the Russian gen
eral staff says: According to informa
ton derived from Japanese sources
military staff, the Japanese attacked
the Russian position at Port Arthur
during the night of July 10th. They
were repulsed with enormous losses
1t is difficult to calculate even approx
imately the number of Japanese cas-
ualties. which amounted. it is said
to the immense figures of 10000.
The newspapers here were fairly
mobbed by people eager to buy ex-
tras. The members of the general
staff admit that the report should be
accepted with a reserve pending more
definite advices. They point out, how
ever. that the date comedies with
Admiral Togo's second attempt to-
send torpedo boat destroyers into the
harbor. A loss of 10000 besiegers in
an attack against the Notifications
with guns in position and the ap-
proaches sown with mines is consid-
cred quite within the range of posi-
bility if the Japanese stormed the for
tifications with their accustomed reck
lessness, especially if the mines were
exploded under masses of men. Ii the
reported loss of 10000 men is conlir
med, General NodZu's army is in des
perate straits, and General Stoessel

Japanese are landing troops at Sia

Russians to overwhelm a small Jap

their resources to the fullest and the
Russians again threw away many

Railway Horrors.

The killing of SO many people in
railway accidents is made the subject
OF well-tined editorial by the Indi.
annapolis News. After enumerating
the railroad slaughters of the past
few weeks The News says:
We refer to this case simply for the
purpose Of making clear one of the
causes for the disgracefully numerous
accidents on American railroads. The
people themselves are largely to
blame. They do not support the au-
tho7lties in the performance of their
duty-do not even insist that they
shall DO their duty. Public feeling.
which is m0mentarily stirred by a
railway horror, soon cools down, and
we all conclude that there is nothing
TO be done, that no one is really to
blame. We are solemnly assured that
the railroad men could not have TO-
tended to kill anybody, as though
that made the least difference. The
sufficient fact is that they do each
year kill thousands of people by their
negligence, by their disregard of law,
and by the violation of the rules which
they themselves have made. The sit.
nation is not likely to improve until
there is some honest effort 20 fix the
responsibility. and to punish the
guilty men. Already we have for.
gotten about the AWFUL wreck ON the
Baltimore & Ohio road few days
ago. The Purdue wreck is ancient
history by this time. Doubtless the
Rock Island wreck of Yesterday morn
ing will soon fade from memory. 1t
is disgraceful condition of affairs,
but the people themselves are largely
to blame for it.
