Negro Disturbs Bay State Republicans


In Massachusetts, Republicans
are disturbed by the agitation for
reciprocity with Canada and it
looks now as If Senator Lodge,
who seems to hold the Republic
can organization there in the hol-
low of his hand, would capitulate
horse, foot and dragons. The
Senator has stood out until now
against every demand for more
liberal relations with the Domin-
ion, but the pressure upon him
has become 80 great that predic-
tions are freely made that reci-
procity will be one of the planks
in the Republican platform. The
Democrats have been in favor of
this reform for several years, and
they will again declare for it III
unequivocal terms. Another mat
ter which has set the Massachu-
sets Republicans by the ears, is
the appearance upon the stump
of Isaac B. Allen, a negro, who in
slsts upon receiving a nomination
for Congress. This is not the
first time that Allen has shocked
the feelings of the Republicans in
his state. There are several
| thousand voters i'll the City of
Boston, and many of them are in
the Eleventh District, which AL
len desires to represent. Two
years ago this district, which is
normally Republican, elected a
Democratic Congressman because
of factional fights on economic
and other issues. This, however,
is the first time the race issue has
been raised there and the progress
of the colored brothers canvass
for the Republican nomination IS
attracting much interest. Should
Allen be nominated, his defeat
would follow as a matter of course
for the Massachusetts Republl-
cans favor the election of negro
Congressman only in Southern
States; on the other hadd should
Allen fail to get the nomination,
whoever does get it will be knit
ed" by the colored voters of the
district. The NJ II husetts
Democrats have decided to nomi-
nate William l.. Douglas, the
famous manufacturer of shoes.
for Governor. Being practical
business man, a large employer of
labor and deeply interested in
reciprocity issue, he is expected
to poll a heavy vote, and while
he cannot hope to be elected, his
candidacy will greatly strengthen
his party and help the election of
Democrats in one and possibly
two districts which are usually
safely Republican.

BLAZING CAR RAN AWAY.
Created Conformation on the Chi
cngO Elevated.

Chicago. July 22.-Blazing fiercely
from wheels to roof, a runaway motor
car on the Metropolitan Electrical
Railway to-day whizzed by hundreds
of waiting passengers, led by a fire
engine a chase of more than a mile
and was not stopped until reaching
the crowded loop in the downtown dis
trict used by the four elevated roads
of the city. The car was brought to
a stop by the temporary shutting off
Of the power at the supply station,
the engineer of the power house hav-
ing been notified that a runaway car
was speeding downtown.
When the car was first found to be
on fire it was detached from the train
and was run past the Aberdeen street
station. so that neither the rest of
the train nor the station might catch
fire The car was left alone, and
fire engine was called.
For some reason. just as the fire.
men were making ready from below
the elevated structure to send a stream
Of water on the blaze. the car sud-
denly started. With no one on board,
and leaving a trail of fire and smoke
behind the runaway began the wild
race down town.
When the car stopped at the loop
entrance. the fire engine. distanced in
the first part of the chase, came up
and put out the fire. but not before
the car was a charred wreck.

ONLY FOUR APPLIED
AT FORT WORTH PLANTS,

Fort Worth, Tex, July 22.-But four
of the strikers applied for work at
the Swift and Armour packing plants
to-day when the whistle blew. The
great majority of the men preferred
to await the report of the committee
that had been appointed to treat with
the packers. The report of the conf
mittee was not satisfactory to the men,
being in efEect that the packers would
take back only such men as they could
with no intention of letting go those
that had been engaged since the strike
began.
In the midst of "a stormy meeting,
the order of President Donnelly was
received to put the strike in effect
again, and pickets were at once placed
around the plants
The first attack on non-union man
occurred at noon. A negro laborer was
set upon by a squad of union pickets
and choked. He managed to escape
without serious injuries. A force of
deputy sherffs was at once sent to the
plants to preserve order
The packers assert that they will be
able to run the plants even if the engi-
neers and firemen are called out, as is
threatened tonight.

controversy were equally determined
as to the merits Of their respective
cases.
The arbitration board conferred sep
arately with each committee and later
the two bodies met in joint confer
ence again and threshed out the whole
matter. At its conclusion President
