THE CZARINA, ALIx OF HEssE.

accordance with Russian imperial Gus
tom it will be performed in the i'm
perial chapel Of the Peterhof palace,
credited with being the most magnif1-
cent chapel in Russia.
1t was 2:45 p. m. when the guns of
st. Peter and ST. Paul fortress opposite
the winter palace in this city, conveyed
the glad tidings to the people of the
Russian capital. The effect was cleo
trical. With the boom of the first gun
the people in the streets, who had been
momentarily expecting the event for
twenty-four hours, stopped to listen
and count the guns. Only thirty-one
are fired for a girl. When the thirty
second doomed and the people were
aware that at last an heir to the throne
was born there were scenes of rejoic-
ing everywhere, and before the salute
was finished the whole city had bios
somed out with flags and bunting and
the shipping in the harbor was
dressed. Then the bells Of the church
es began to ring wildly.
In the meantime the announcement
had been telegraphed to the most re-
mote corners Of the empire. In all the
towns and cities the glad tidings were
spread with the clangor of bells and
the booming of cannon. There is al
ready revival Of the talk that, with
the succession to the throne assured,
the emperor will follow the example of
the house of Romanoff and go to the
front.
In receiving the congratulations of
his court yesterday, the emperor in a
brief reply said: II am happier at the
birth of son and heir than at a vic
tory of my troops, for now I face the
future calmly and without alarm,
knowing by this sign that the war will
be brought to happy conclusion"
The empress and the heir to the
throne are both making satisfactory
progress

NEW PLAN PROPOSED
Mayer of Chicago Has Been Asked TO
Settle Strike.

Oh 90, Aug. 13.-Mayor Carter II.
Harrison was asked today to do what
he can toward settling the stockyards
strike. With all prospects of peace or
even peace conferences gone, the re-
tail meat dealers and grocers last
night decided to ask Mayor Harrison
to take position in the present con-
flict similar to the position taken by
him in the streetcar strike last fall
The street railway strike was settled
through his efforts. At meeting of
the retail dealers committee of ten
persons was also appointed to wait
upon the mayor. Representatives of
the strikers were at this meeting and
expressed themselves as being, salts
fed with the plan to ask Mayor Harri-
sons assistance in the controversy.
Previous to the decision to request
Ma yor Harrison to intercele for
peace, Cornelius, Shea, president of
the international Brotherhood of
Transfers, declared in an interview
that there would be no more sympa-
thetic strikes of the members of his
union. He declared that all the pack
inghouse teamsters now on strike
would stand pat" meaning that they
would remain on strike.
A riot in crowded Fifth avenue with
In a square of the city hall, and re-
calling the Transfers strike two years
ago, when missiles were hurled from
the windows of Office buildings, capped
the climax of disorder in the stock
yards strike yesterday. During the
day half a dozen men were hurt in
various encounters and shots were
fired during an attacn on a trainload
Of strike breakers" All told, yester-
days violence was more widespread
than in any previous twelve hours of
the strike, although no mob of great
size took part in any of the assaults.
Even President Golden of the team
sters' union was attacked while trying
20 rescue Max Falk, a union teamster
who was driving wagon loaded with
meat. Four hundred persons had pur-
sued Falk, not knowing he was a un-
ionist, and were attacking him when
President Golden appeared. When
Falk produced a union button Golden
mounted the wagon, took the reins
and urged back the mob. Stones and
sticks were showered at Golden and
Falk before Golden, who suffered many
injuries, was recognized.

RAPID TRANSIT N SIX WEEKS.

There has been so much uncertainty, even In
the minds of the Rapid Transit Commissioners
as TO the date of the practical completion Of the
underground railroad that Mr.. McDonalds ex-
plicit promise 10 open Il for general traffic in
the first week Of September comes as an agree
able surprise. The nOrthcrnmost section may
not be in operation before January. but over
the rest Of the route trains are confidently ex-
pected 10 be running in about SIX weeks We
observe with particular satisfaction that an in
terYal long enough for careful test OF the
equipment and thorough instruction OF the EN-
Qloyes has been reserved. The operating COM
pany will be able 10 pat on experimental trains
early IN August and should be justified in assur-
ing the public a month later that every neces-
sary condition Of safety. regularity and con-
venience has been supplied. The acting chief
engineer is convinced that all requisite precau-
lions have been employed but 1t is Of great i'm
poItance 10 the company as well as to the public
that his opinion should be confirmed or possible
defects corrected before the road is opened 10

actual traffic viii create some problems which
cannot be solved IN advance, but everything
that they learn In August Will be of direct SER

Now that the subway is virtually completed

hearty appreciation Of the general care. skill
and expedition with which a gigantic undertake

public to bear necessary discomforts patiently
for the sake OF benefits to come, has felt COM
PEELED 10 denounce outrageous some things
done and left undone by contractors with the
consent Of the commissioners. Forty-second-st.
Park Row and Elm-st, in particular have fur
nished exasperaung examples OF indifference TO
the rights Of the public. Such abuses should
not be forgotten or condoned, for if they were
they might be repeated in future undertakings
which are probably inevitable.
II IS fair to say that the Rapid Transit Com
mission has firmly applied the lessons OF ex-
perience on the section below the POstofice,
where the work is going forward IN way
which leaves comparatively little room for COM
plant. But presumably the limit Of ingenuity
in preventing annoyance TO the public has not
yet been reached, and the commission will be ex-
pected to insist on the employment of improved
methods as fast as they are developed. II was
necessary, or honestly believed to be. to offer
the contractor for the first underground road
great inducements. Nobody now doubts that
the subway company possesses an enormously
valuable franchise, from which great profits
will be derived Henceforth II Will be the duty
OF the commission TO obtain far better terms for
the city and TO exact a scrupulous regard for
the pecuniary interests of individuals and the
convenience Of the community.
