tonight to discuss the advisability Of
going on a sympathetic strike. Twen-
ty-two unions were represented. with
a total membership of $4,000 men. OF
these unions nineteen came to the meet
ing with instructions to strike If the
meat cutters and butchers asked them
to do so.
The men now on strike did not ask
the allied unions to go out. but urged
them to remain at work until after the
return of President Donnelly to the
city on Monday, the union leader hav-
ing left the city tonight to visit ST.
Louis and other points where the strike
is in progress. 1t was finally decided
that no action would be taken until
after the meeting Of the Packing
Trades central body, a committee hav-
ing general control over all the unions
at the yards This body will meet on
Monday night and will consider the
question of a sympathetic strike.
1t was announced tonight by men,
bers of the firemen's union that they
will go to the packers with an ultima
tum on Monday They have grievances
of their own they declare. and they
don't wish to work with the non-union
men that have been placed in the
plants since the strike.
The San Francisco call., 1904-07-17

CHICAGO, July 16.-At to-day's
conference between the strikers and
the packers the former were repre-
sentd by Michael Donnelly, president
of the Meat Cutters Union; John
Floersch and William Sterling. The
representatives of the packing COM
panies were ]. ogden Armour, Arthur
Meeker, T. J. Cononrs, T. F. Swift, E.
F. Swift, Edward Tilden, Edward
Morris, Edward A. Cudahy, ]. E.
Mauer and w. F. Burrows.
The question of arbitration was first
taken up and after prolonged discus
sion the representatives of the union
agreed to waive the ground they had
taken when they insisted that the arbi-
tration should mean only an advance in
wages. They agreed to accept the de-
mand of the packers that the decision
of the arbitrators should cover the
entire scope, Of the strike and its
causes q
The question of taking back the men
who had gone out on strike was then
considered. Donnelly insisted that all
the men should be taken back pending
the arbitration. The packers insisted
that the men be taken back in the or
der in which they applied for work and
that as many of them would be given
places as the packers could find room
for. The packers declared that they
would not discharge the men they en-
ployed. Donnelly asked that the pack
ers agree to reinstate the old men
within a week and the packers refused
to make the agreement. This final an
swer broke off negotiations, and the
representatives of the union left the
meeting.
Working conditions at the local yards
were improved further to-day. More
than 200 more men were at work and
distributed through the various plants.
At Armours plant more than 1000 hogs
and nearly 400 cattle were slaughtered.
AT Morris & Co.'S twenty-five more
butchers were at work than yesterday
and $50 hogs were killed during the
day. At Swift's the operations were
increased considerably. T. F. Swift
said tonight:
"The local market has suffered moth
ing because of this strike. Thus far the
country at large Is being supplied with
ALI the meat it needs. With few ex-
ceptions. the prices remain just as they
were before the strike"
A mass meeting of the trades unions
allied with the meat cutters and
butchers was held at the stock yards
The San Francisco call., 1904-07-17

Prior to this time the strikers had in
dulged in no violence.
When the Sheriff went to South ST.
Paul after his conference with the
Governor he held a conference with
superintendent Burns Of the Swift
Packing Company. The latter ex-
pressed a desire to take a number Of
men into the yards and plans were
made.
The invaders, when they marched
up to the entrance, were surrounded
by strikers and a fight began. In a mo-
ment all was confusion. Major Tuffie
Of the Minneapolis branch of the COM
pany, who was with the invaders, was
badly injured. Sheriff Grisim rescued
him from the strikers, who were
pounding him. The fighting line
stretched over a hundred yards. While
the fight was going on ten men ran the
blockade of the pickets and several
others managed to slip through by
themselves. 1t is claimed that in this
manner twenty-five men were taken
into the yards.
After the fight Sheriff Grisim called
the strike leaders and the pickets to-
gether and issued a forceful statement
of the situation. He declared that if
the strikers persisted in their course Of
blockading the public thoroughfare he
would be compelled to call upon the
Governor for aid. The Sheriff's state
ments were met with long arguments
and protestations that the law was be-
ing observed.
Sheriff Grisim ordered the abandon
ment Of the Gordon Of pickets. The
men assented, but as soon as he left
the scene the Gordon was again formed
on orders from the business agent OF
the union and the work OF holding up
every man attempting to pass went on.
Nothing will be done at the plant to-
morrow. The men will be kept within
its walls.
On Monday an effort will be made.
backed up by the full resources Of
the Swift Company. to open the plant
with a large force and keep it in oper-
alton. Serious trouble is expected.

ABYSSINIA
Will SEND
A MINISTER
King MGlGlik to Be
Represented in
Washington.
Special Dispatch to The Can.

ROME, July 17.-Advices from Jibutil
state that King Menelik has decided
10 send Ras Makonnen 10 Washington
as Abyssinian Minister.
Ras Makonnen. who has often been
termed the Abyssinian Hannibal. is one
Of the most strenuous and interesting
chiefs in Africa to-day. He has long
been close adviser Of King Menelik and
IN many instances has shown himself
q far more astute statesman than even
the willy Nenelik. He it was who
prompted the treaties of 1884 and 1885,
which heralded the agreement between
France and Abyssinia. He has won
great fame as military leader as well.
Probably his greatest work was his
valuable assistance TO the march Of Ex-
plorer Bonchamps toward the Nile,
where Il was expected that Bonchamps
would meet Colonel Marchand and
solve by the back-stairs policy the
Egyptian question.

.PERDICARIS
CHAMPIONS
RAISSOULI
Seeks to Make the
Bandit Ruler Of
Morocco.
Visits France On Mission
in the Interest Of
His Kidnaper.
Late Captive Whose Case Gave Secre-
tary Hay Much Worry Now
Actively Intriguing

PARIS, July 16.-Ion Perdicaris ar
rived here to-day from Tangier on an
important mission, which will occupy
the next two weeks. He called at the
American embassy, lengthily conferred
with ambassador Porter and also ar
ranged for a meeting with Foreign
Minister Delcasse next week. Perdi-
caris intends to strongly urge upon
the Government officials and Parlia-
mentary leaders the necessity for the
adoption of a forcible policy toward
Morocco as the only means of averting
disaster.
"The situation at Tangier has be-
come desperate said Perdicaris.
STRONG measures ere requisite to
avoid serious consequences. Frances
policy of pacific penetration promises
to be entirely inadequate to meet the
danger. The present plan of sending
forty French Algerian officers to Tan
gier TO bolster up the police is likely
to bring on the very catastrophe
France seeks to avoid. 1t will excite
intense animosity. and if an outbreak
occurs these forty officers would be
useless to maintain order. If, however,
large force-say of 10000 men--is
landed, it would end the disturbance
and give lasting object lesson of
French power. 1t might involve a
skirmish and possibly some bloodshed,
but it would be insignificant compared
with the grave menace of an extensive
rising and possible massacre, through
policy of excessive mildness."
1t was suggested to Perdicaris that
two French warships were now held
at Toulon in readiness to meet the
emergency of an uprising at Tangier.
He replied:
The warships might better be at
Tangier than at Toulon. In case of a
rising it would be over before the ships
arrive 1t would also be impossible
to get a British military force from
Gibraltar across in time. Moreover, /
stopped at Gibraltar on my way here
and the Military Governor said he had
no orders contemplating a Gibraltar
relief force going to Tangier on an
emergency"
Perdicaris says he fully recognizes
the difficulties in the way of France
adopting force, owing to Parliament
ary opposition and political complica-
tions in Spain and Morocco. There
fore, he is prepared to propose an al
tentative measure. This is nothing
short of giving RaissouH authority to
deal with the situation in Tangier.
II know this will excite SURPRISE -
said he "as the public has the idea
that Raissoui is a common robber.
This is entirely erroneous. 1 consider
Raissouli to be the strongest man now
available to deal with the situation.
While it would be an experiment, yet
/ am convinced that it would be better
to try the experiment than to allow
the situation to drift into complete an
archy. Raissouli says he can maintain
order, and / believe in giving him a
trial."
Perdicaris frankly says that Gum
mere, the American Consul, and the
British Minister at Tangier are
strongly opposed to giving Raissouli
any authority.

ST. PAUL, July 16.-The first clash
between the Sheriff's force and the

come to stay at the Martha Washing
ton Hotel Manager Caldwell said to-
day:
We've given the system a fair trial
and are convinced that for a wonnan's
hotel girls have a decided advantage
over boys. There are a few women in
the house who object to the innovation,
but they would object to anything. The
beIlgirls attend strictly to business.
They are neat and orderly and perform
their errands with dispatch. They are
more reliable than boys. You know
they said at first that girls could not
handle luggage. Well, any bag or
bundle that a woman can carry into
this hotel our girls can carry to her
room without hurting themselves.
Heavy luggage is sent UP, as it always

TOXIC, July 16.-The imperial
headquarters staff officially denies the
reports from st. Petersburg that the
Japanese lost 10000 men in a battle
near Port Arthur on July 10 or IL.
Not shot was fired on either date.
PARIS, July 17-Light is breaking
at last upon the situation at Port
Arthur and the land operations on
Liaotung Peninsula since the first of
the month. The official denial from
Toxic of the report that sc, 1000 Japan
ese were killed or wounded in a battle
on July 10 or II is accepted here as
final proof of the falsity of the rumor.
which at the outset was received with
credulity.
But, while this tale of japanese dis
aster proves to have been without
foundation, details are being received
of two severe reverses which the jap
anese suffered on the land side of Port
Arthur during the present month, re-
ports Of which heretofore were ex-
tremely vague. 1t is probable that the
account of the loss of 10000 Japanese
was but an exaggerated version of the
last Of these two engagements.
JAPANESE TWICE DEFEATED.
On July 3 the japanese attacked
Port Arthur, according to information
that has reached the Foreign Office
here. and a battle lasting all day oc-
Cured, the Russians stubbornly hold
ing their positions. On the morning
of July the Japanese renewed the
attack, repeatedly charging the Rus
sian works. They were beaten back
with heavy losses and toward night
abandoned the attack. The Russians.
protected by their fortiflcations, suf-
fered but slightly.
On July and 9 another battle oc-
Cured. The situation this time was
reversed, the Russians attacking and
the japanese defending positions
