ders to Quit.
New York, July 18.-There was no
change in the status of the meat strike
today and matters have assumed the
phase Of a deadlock. The plants
against which the strike is directed
remain closed, no deliversies of beef
being made and what meat is sold
is taken away in purchasers wagons.
Meat is becoming scarcer on the East
side and the temper Of the people is
beginning to be felt
Matters will be further complicated

The secretary of the International
Brotherhood of Stationary Firemen

The engineers have not yet taken
any action, but it is believed they will
be guided by the action Of the fire

TAKE EXTRA PRECAUTIONS
ENTRENcHING THEIR
POSITIONS AS THEY CLOSE
IN ON TATcHEKIAO.

st. Petersburg, July 18.-The Jap
anese are continuing to advance on
Tatchekiao, following a scientific plan
and entrenching their positions as they
move forward. They appear to be TAX
ing extra precautions in the case Of
Tatchekiao, on account of their knowl-
edge that General Kuropatkin is there
personally.
According to a dispatch from Lieu
tenant General Sakharoff, dated July
15, the wings of Generals Oku's and
Nodzu's armies have joined at Fang
chi, ten miles southeast of Tatchekiao
The Japanese are also reported to
have occupied the Notifications at
Pintzau, about seven miles north of
Kaichou, and were still proceeding to-
wards Newchwang, which had not
been occupied July Is.
A detachment of General Kuroki's S
force is reported to have reached the
village of Tszhakche, forty miles east
of Liaoyang on the Fengwangcheng

STRIKE
SPREADS
Twelve Thousand Other EN-
ployes of Chicago Yards
Likely to 60 Out.
Ultimatum of Packers Not Ac-
ceptable to the Strik-
ing Employees.

Chicago, July 18.-While peace ne
gotiations between the meat packers
and the striging butcher workmen are
tagging, agencies have been set at
work to prevent the outbreak of fur
ther violence.
The union has warned all members,
in placards printed in five languages,
to heed the Instructions given and to
refrain from disorder and told them
plainly they would not be supported
by the organization if guilty OF law
lessness Chief OF Police O'Neill has
recommended to Mayor Harrison the
revocation of the licenseeof any saloon
in which strike disturbance started.
Meanwhile, with every hours delay
in reaching a settlement, a sentiment
in favor OF a sympathetic strike is
growing among the $4,000 other en-
ployes of the stock yards The tenn
per of the union men was reflected by
President Donnelly, who said:
1--WE will die fighting before sub
mitting to arbitration as proposed by
the packers. Their system of arbi-
Inhalation of trade unionism in the
oCOSh d1uo. 4
Indications all point to an end of
the peace conferences for the present
at least and the beginning of new hos
tilities. President Gompers of the
American Federation of Labor has al
ready left Chicago, presumably to go
to New York.
The strikers have replied to the ul-
timatum of the packers demanding an
answer to their proposed plan OF az
bitration. The nature of the reply
cannot be learned.
The packers declare that they are
not worrying over possible strike
of the fremen. They say they have
men who can keep the fires going and
if failure came and the machinery
stopped the meat in cold storage
would keep for a long time without
spelling.
In anticipation of the strike spread
ing to other trades and the possible
necessity of housing a large number
of men in their plants the packers
caused nearly 5000 cots and blankets
to be taken into the yards during the
day in freight cars and distributed as
needed among the various houses

Refuse to Discuss Seizure of Mails by
Russians.
Berlin, July 1S.-The foreign office
here confirms the report of the seizure
of the mails of the North German
Lloyd steamer PrinZ Heinrich by the
Russian volunteer fleet steamer Smo-
lensk in the Red sea, but declines to
discuss the political features Of the
case at this stage and does not indi-
cate what steps it intends to take.
The news reached here too late for
most of the evening papers to COM
ment on it. The Tageblatt says:
"A speedy explanation of this Rus
sian action against the empires postal
flag is imperatively necessary. Steps
must be taken that disavowal is
made that such Russian arbitrary acts
are avoided in the future"
The Lokal Anzeiger thinks the seiz-
ure will be most hard to justify and
says that if it is found that the Rus
sian action is contrary to the law of
nations, the German government will
not hesitate to apply remedy in its
widest sense.

FLEET
ESCAPES
Port Arthur Squadron Said to
Have Succeeded in Reach
ing KaichOu.
Sound of Heavy Firing Heard and
Warships are Distinguish
able at Sea.

Tatchekiao, July 1S.-There is rea-
son to believe that the whole or part
OF the Port Arthur squadron has come
north into the gulf of Liaotung.
The sound of the firing of heavy
guns is heard seaward. Warships are
distinguishable firing in the direction
of Kaichou. 1t is surmised that they
could only be Russian vessels.
St. Petersburg, July 18.-Reliable
reports from Tatchekiao during the
afternoon brought the startling an
nouncements of the presence of Rus
sian warships off Kaichou, which they
are said to be bombarding, and of the
arrival of Japanese transports and
torpedo boats off the port of New
chWang.
The admiralty was unable to con-
firm or deny the report, not having re-
ceived any communication from Rear
Admiral Without, but the officials gen
orally were not inclined to credit
them. Ii true it would mean that Ad-
nliral Without has got the Japanese
transports at his mercy. In this case
Admiral Togo would hasten to their
rescue and engage the Russians. This
may also explain the absence Of pos
tive news of the Japanese occupa-
tion of the port of NeWchwang an.
the cautious advance of General Okus
column.
The foreign office has received a
telegram from the Russian consul at
NeWchWang, dated July IA, but he dl
not mention the approach of the Jap
aneSe.

The marriage of Mrs. Helen Grill

at high noon at the home of Mr. and

The Distant Stars.

Speaking roughly, we have reason.
from the data so far available, to be-
lieye that the stars of the Milky Way
are situated at Il distance between
100, 100000 ana 2OOOoO,HW times the
distance from the sun. At distances
less than this it seems likely that the
stars are distributed through space
with some approach to uniformity. We
may state as general cohclusion indi-
Gated by several methods of making
the estimate that nearly all the stars
which we can see with or telescopes
are contained within sphere hot like
" to be much more than 20D.Ono,0OO
times the distance of the sun.
Granting that all the stars we can
see are contained within this limit,
may there not be amy number of stars
without the limit which are invisible
only because they are too far away to

Certain species of crabs cover them
selves with seaweed in order to de-
tcivc their foes. One crab was seen ~
the naturalist Eisig in 1873 to pluck
of zoophyles, those plantike animal
colonies which grow on shells and
stones, and to fix them on tho spineA
and hairs of it's shell. A still deeper
romance Of defensive tnctics Is to be
found In the case Of certain hermit
crabs. They live In the CASTOR shells
of whelks and crawl about, house on
back. One claw is bigger than the 9th
er, and this Is an adaptive feature, for
when the crab retires into it's house
the bigger claw Is tucked across the
mouth of the shell to bar the way
against possible intruder. More curl
Gus still Is the habit of one species
which tolls along with Il sen anemone
