BITTER FIGHT ON.
Strike Has Become General in Chi
CaqO StOCkYardS.

Chicago, July 27.-With all peace
negotiations broken off and with all
the allied trades unions employed at
the different plants, with the exception
of the teamsters and stationary engin-
eers, out on strike in sympathy with
the butcher workmen who quit work
two weeks ago, the stock yards strike
tonight had settled down to what prom
| ises to be one of the bitterest fights be-
tween capital and labor in the history
Of America.
As has been threatened for some
time, the allied trades employed in the
packing industry quit work when called
on today to assist the striking butchers
in their efforts to bring the packers to
terms. Ia several instances the men
did not wait for the official notification
from their leaders to 60 on strike, but
threw down their tools and quit work
Of their own vOlition.
At 6 O'Clock tonight the statement
was made by NJ. ]. Donnelly, president
of the butchers union, that every
union man employed at the stockyards,
with the exception of the teamsters and
engineers, had responded to orders for
general sympathetic strike. The en-.
gineers, he declared, would join the
strikers tomorrow mo1ning, and, unless
there was a speedy settlement Of the
difficulty, he said, the teamsters would
undoubtedly join their brother work
men in their struggle for supremacy.
According to Mr.. Donnel,y, today's
strike swelled the number of men who
have quit work at the stockyards in
Chiago alone to nearly 03, 900 persons.

RAIDS TO CEASE.
Protests of Britain and Germany
Heeded by Russia.

st. Petersburg, July 27.-Grand
Duke Alexis presided at yesterdays
council, which Count Lamsdorf, the
foreign secretary, and Vice Admiral
Avellan, chief of the admiralty depart
ment, and other high naval officials at
tended.
The result OF the conference removes
all doubts concerning the present atti-
tude of Russia with regard to the vol
unteel feet. The validity of the view
expressed in the British note regarding
the irregularity of the poaiA ion OF the
vessels was go far admitted that the
council agreed to waive the sight OF
search.
After long discussion. in winch
Count Lamsdorff took leading part,
it was decided that the present status
Of the volunteer feet was not sufficient
ly we'll defined according to intelna"
tional law to render further searches
and seizures advisable and that there
fore Russia, in the interests of friendly
relations Eith the powers should with
draw the authority given the voltnlteer
fleet in this respect.

KUROpATKIN NAY RETREAT.
OatmaneuVered, He Must Abandon
Lao Yang.

London, July 27.-Specials to the
London morning papers confirm the
news of active operations at the seat
of war. The Telegraph's Chefoo cor
respondent, under date of July 23,
says:
"a junk from Dalny reports that
last night Japanese fleet of 20 war
ships and 20 torpedo boats SQmbarded
Hwangshin for three hours, aod the
forts replied"
The same correspondent learns that
the japanese first army is being largely
reinforced by veterans from the re.
serves. The correspondent of the Stan
dard with the Japanese army, undel
date Of July "a says:
ut is difficnlt to understand the in
tentions OF the Russians. Kuropatkir
is evidently bent on a retreat north
wald, yet he fingers in the south, at
tracted apparently by Port Arthur" D."
The correspondent Of the Chronicle,
in dispatch dated at Mo Tieh Pass,
July 23, regards General Kuropatkin
as OutmaneuvsIed and anxious to
abandon Lao Yang without fighting,
but also reluctant to ietire while Port
Arthur remains uncaptGEed.
The Chronicles Yinkow correspond
ent reports that there was heavy fight
ing Saturday and Sunday in the neigh
borhood Of Ia Tche Kiao with General
Stakelberg's force, consisting of 20 bat
talions of infantry, brigade of artil-
lery and division of Cossacks.

JApSSEECAUSE
Russia Believed to Be Ready
TO End the War.
LOOKING FOR A GOOD EXCUSE
Opinion Expressed in Japan That
Action of Czsr's Fleet will In
tenslfy UafrlendIineSS.

Toxic, July 27.-The acts Of the
vladivostok squadron in the Pacific
and of the volunteer feet in the Red
sea strengthen the belief here that Rus
sia Is deliberately seeking to effect
America, England and Germany, in the
hope of finding an avenue for retiring
gracefully from a disastrous war.
There is no argument over the right of
Russia to seize neutral vessels carrying
actual contraband of war, but the wis
dom of destroying neutral prizes with
out trial, unless the subject is to in
volve other powesr, is generally ques-
toned.
1t is believed that America will re-
fuse to recognize Russia's extended list
OF contrabsnd and wilIspeedily demand
a limitation to articles reas0nably con-
traband, in order to protect her large
Oriental commercial interests.
1t is expected that Great Britain will
protest against the sinking of the
Knight Commander and demand trial
for seized British steamers, and that
Germany will make second and more
vigorous protest.
The Vladviostok warships are hover
ing about the course Of the steamers
from San Francisco, probably with the
hope of overhauling the liner Korea.
Warning, however, has been given to
the Korea and shs has chance of elud-
ing the RUssians.
There will probably be other seiz-
ures, and whatever be the determine
tion of the legal questions involved, or
whatever diplomatic action be taken,
it is confidently believed here that the
seizures will create feeling of intense
irritation and unfriendliness against
Russia in America, England and Ger
many.
Japan is anxious to localize the COM
bat and avoid involving other powers,
but views with unfriendliness the acts
of aggression against friendly neutrals
and treaty violations Instantaneous
to herself. In the latter connection
Japan regards the affair Of the passage
of the volunteer fleet through the Dar-
danelles as of more Importance than
the acts Of the vessels subsequent to
such passage.

RUSHING IN nrN.
Packers Striving to Flll the Places
of the Strikers.


Chicago, July 2s.-Little if any ad-
vantage was gained by either side in
the stoekyards strike today and there
is no hope tonight of any immediate
settlement of the difficulty. Realizing
that they have one OF the hardest prob
lens to contend with in the history Of
the packing industry, the packers are
leaving nothing undone to gain the
upperhand in the struggle with their
10000 union employees who are on
strike.
All day long, workmen from outside
points were rushed to Chicago and
taken to the stockyards to fill the
places of the strikers. Tonight it was
announced by the packers that 1000
new men were now installed in the
different plants at the stockyards.
With these men and with the arrivals
that are expected each day, the packers
expect to get their affairs IN such shape
that the strikers will be compelled to
seek truce in the hostilities and seek
a peaceable settlement at the dictation
OF the Employers.
Although the receipts of livestock
today were small, compared with re-
ceipts on corresponding days under
normal conditions, still many cattle,
hogs and sheep were left in the pens
tonight unsold.

GREAT BRITAIN pACIFIED.
Settlement of Red Sea Seizures
Satisfactorily Arranged.

st. Petersburg, July 27.-The Asao-
ciated Press is able to state on the
highest authority that the Russian and
British governments have agreed on a
mutually satisfactory basis for settle
ment Of the question OF the status of
Russian volunteer fleet steamers in the
Red sea and the seizures by them of
British ships. A few minor points
still remain unsett led, but these will
probably be cleared up tomorrow, and
it is not expected that tuIther compi-
cations will arise.
Great credit for thesatisfactoiy term
ination of this incident is due Foreign
Secretary LamsdOif, who, it is ad-
mitted, acted in the calm and concilia-
tory spirit worthy Of great statesman.
The attitude Of Sir Charles Hardinge,
the British ambassador, both for mod
Grafton and dignity, also evokas praise.

APOLOGY AND DAMAGES.
Basis of British Settlement o
Knidht Commanders Loss.

London, July 2S.-The British gov
ernment is taking energetic action rela-
tive to the sinking of the British steam-
er Knight Commander by the Vladivo-
stok squadron. All information re-
ceived by the government tends to es-
tabIish in the official mind the belief
that an outage has been committed
for which no excuse exists in inteIna-
tional law.
The demands which will be made on
the Russian government will include
compensation to the owners OF the ship
and to the owners of the goods on
board the Knight Commander, an
apology for the action Of the Russian
cruisers and an agreement that in
structions shall be given which will
prevent a repetition of such action.
British shipowners are up in arms
over the danger which shipping is now
running and are bombarding the gov
eminent with representations looking
to the thorough protection of their in
terests.

Crops About Junction civ.

Junction City--IIaying is nearly fin
ished in this locality. The price Of
this product has been higher this sea-
son than usual farmers realizing from
$S to $l2 per ton, not baled. Harvest
ing is progressing rapidly, and thresh-
ing will begir in two weeks. Grain
will make better crop than was ex-
pected, as the heads are we'll filled and
the grains plump, While the stand IL
not so thick as usual, the yield will
fall but little below tho average.
Prunes are almost a failure in Northern
Lane and Southern Benton counties.
Some prune orchards, in fact, have
been grubbed up there.
