Great Textile strike in Massachu
sets Begins in Earnest.

Great Textile strike in Massachu
sets Begins in Earnest.
Fall River, Mass, July 25.-The
textile strike began in earnest this
morning An attempt to operate the
factories failed on account of lack of
sufficient operatives applying for wrok.
The crowds booted the few workers
that responded, but there were no other
demonstrations.
Feeling is high over the proposed
reduction in wages, which precipitated
the strike. The order announcing the
reduction, which averages IL l.2 per
cent, went into effect today. More
than $4,000 operatives, employed 10y
nearly forty corproatinos, are affected.
The reduction is the second made in
Fall River within year, the last hav-
ing been a cut of ten per cent, which
eventually extended to all the cotton
mills of Southern New England. The
reason given by the manufacturers for
the wage reduction is that the manu-
featuring industry is tsill in poor shape
and the margin of profit exceedingly
small on most goods. For nearly four
months, in spite OF the ten per cent cut
made some time ago, the mills have
been running on short time.

RED CROSS FUNDS GONE.
Over Four Million Dollars Missing
and Gar Orders Inquiry.

Over Four Million Dollars Missing
and Gar Orders Inquiry.
Berlin, July 25.-Fresh scandals Of
enormous proportions have arisen in
connection with the management of
the Russian national Red Cross funds.
Eight million rubles, or 81, 1870, 900. is
missing from the central treasury,
available for the needs of Kuropatkin 5
army. The loss came to light in con.
sequence of the demand of the province
of Cherson for an acknowledgment of
its contribu of 100, 900 roubles.
An examination of the books in St. Pc
tersburg and Moscow revealed this dis
crepancy, which seems to be part of
a system of thievery practiced since
the beginning of the war. Nicholas is
reported to be outraged at the existence
of such corruption among the aristo-
cratic classes intrusted with the Red
Cross arrangements. He insists that
the culprits must be punished, no mat
ter who they may be.
One of the most fragrant instances of
Russian rapacity, which is notorious
in this country, occurred a few weeks
ago when the czarina sent the Prus-
sian regiment of which she is the hon
orary colonel set of magnificent drum
cloths, embroidered in gold and pre-
cious stones. When the drum cloths
reached Germany they were mere rags
having been entirely despoiled of theil
gems and costly decorations.

APPLES GO EAST.
Unusually Early Shipment From
WalIa Walla.

Seattle, July a5. -Washington hor-
ticultural products will be the first
froom the states of the Pacific North
west to reach the markets of the East
this year, the first consignment of APP
Piles from Eastern Washington having
been made several days ago. Two car
loads of the famous Red Astracan va
riety were shipped from the Blalock
fruit farm at Walla Walla last week.
and with the shipment of apples was
also carload of cherries from the
same orchards.
The shipment of apples in July is ex-
ceptionally early. The first week in
August is considered we'll in advance
of the season. The com bined shipment
of apples and cherries is something
heretofore unheard of, save in the state
of California, where apples are picked
in the southern part of the state and
cherries in the northern.

AFTER THE WMCT.
Believed Russian Fleet Is Lying in
Wait for Her.


London, July 26. While in insur-
ance and shipping circles there is in.
tense indignation over the sinking OF
the British ship knight Commander,
naval men who areposted in the prin-
ciples of international law declare that
the Russian Vladivostok squadron was
we'll within its rights when it sent the
vessel to the bottom.
Russia, declared prominent rear
admiral last night, can sink "a vessel
which they can prove was loaded
either wholly or in part with contra
band of war. You can expect soon to
hear that the big American ship Shaw

~, for Japan with an immense cargo
of foodstuffs in the shape of flour.
canned goods and picked meats on
board consigned to the Japanese gov
eminent has been sent to the bottom.
ave have reason to believe that the
object of the British fleet is the capture
of this vessel, the Queen, of the Pacific
Mail fleet, and the japanese steamer
America Maru. The latter, however,
is still in American waters and you
can depend upon it that she will be
kept there until the war is, oevr. As it
would be almost impossible to get
these vessels back to a Russian port
they will likely be destroyed if cap
tured.
