The SINGLE SKATERS
TO HOLD CONVENTION

is a matter of detail to be worked out.
The plans for the constitutional
convention are being scrutinized
closely. The long debate over con.
stitution and public discussion prior to
an election will, it is believed, give
that movement an impetus that must
be combatted by the single state sen.
timent of the Indian country alone.
Any argument from Oklahoma is re-
scented. 1t is realized that the back
fire" must come from the section
handling the separate state idea. For
this reason it has been determined
to hold a convention and neutralize,
as far as possible, the movement. Its
effect, as believed. will be to decrease
popularity of separate state move
ment. In doing this, it will reduce
the vote at the constitutional election.
This is important. as it mutilates the
showing to be made to congress by
the advocates for two states.

South McAlester, l. T., Sept. g.
Arrangements are being made to hold
single statehood convention in the
indian Territory. 1t is to be dele
gate convention on basis of possibly
twenty-five delegates for each of the
twenty-six recording districts in the
territory. The convention is to be a
strictly territory affair.
The convention will be held some
time in October and it is intended to
reaffirm the platform of the single
state convention held at Oklahoma
City. The purpose is to Offset the
effect of the state board and constltu-
tional convention now being held at
Muskogee.
So far it has not been decided where
to hold the convention. Ardmore,
Muskogee and this town are being
considered. BY way of avoiding any
town jealousies some suggest that it
should be held at Muskogee. but that

Berlin, Sept. 2. The spread of
cholera from two localities on the riv-
err Weichsel five days ago to thirty
four cases in twelve localities, extend
ing from the Baltic to the river War
the, $50 miles south, and its appear
ance in Hamburg, has given an I'M
pleasant thrill to the people Of Ger
many, for it may mean long and
steady fight, as in 1929, to prevent
the disease from getting beyond con-
troll.
In those years it is estimated that
100000 persons died in Russia from
cholera The Prussian government is
keenly aware of the possibilities of
the danger, which so far is not regard
ed as giving occasion for apprehen-
sion. A committee of the cabinet,
consisting of DR.. Studt, minister of
medical affairs; Herr Won Sudde,. min
lister of state, and minister of public
works; Herr Moller, minister of CON-
merce and industry and DR.. Won
Bethmann-Holweig, minister of the
interior, has the central direction of
the preventive measures. Numerous
psychologists have been sent into
tho infected districts to assist in the
surveillance of persons who have con,
| tracted cholera.
Cautionary notices are published in
all the towns and villages within the
affected area

RUSSIA WILL ING TO PAY;
MONEY MAY BE- ARRANGED

St Petersburg, Aug. 30.-The Asso-
ciated Press dispatch from Ports
mouth declaring that President Roose-
welt was authorized several days ago,
on behalf of Japan, to waive all claim
for indemnity or reimbursement for
the cost of the war and to cede back
to Russia the northern half of the is
land Of Sakhalin, leaving the ere
demption" price Of it to the arbitrA-
tion of a mixed commission, was re-
ceived too late here last night to
reach the general public, but its sig
nificance was instantly recognized in
the quarters where it became known.
There is. every reason to believe,
judging from the official expressions
persis:ently given out by the foreign
Office since the beginning of the nego-
tiations at Portsmouth, that this
proposition by Japan to waive the
question of indemnity goes far to-
ward removing the last, and, accord
ing to official explanations, the only
stumbling block in the way of peace.

cry disputed point between Russia and

the FIERCEST WIND BLOWING
Fata! Disaster Reported on Florida
Coast.

Fernardina. Fla, Aug. 30.--Twenty
men constituting all but two of the
crew of the American steamship Pc
onic, Captain James. bound from
Philadelphia to New Orleans with
coal, were drowned by the sinking of
that vessel off the coast of Florida.
The disaster was the result of a fierce
gale which ragged along the coast dur
ing the night and early morning.
Lashed by the storm. an immense
wave struck the vessel with terrific
force about 80 o'clock this morn
ing. The impact, coming just as the
vessel was making turn, caused a
shift of the cargo and the vessel lean
ed over and sank Immediately. The
accident occurred SO quickly that only
two of those who abandoned her. an
Italian and a Spaniard were able to
save themselves. They succeeded in
getting into life boat. reached
Amelia Beach about noon and on land
ing told the story of the disaster.
About midnight of Sunday, accord
ing to the story, during the heaviest
part of the storm, which had ragged all
day, the officers of the deck gave the
order to put further out to sea, fear
ing they were approaching the coast
too nearly. In the endeavor to turn
the ship was struck with a heavy sea-
the cargo shifted and she began sink
ing rapidly. In less than ten minutes
after the alarm sounded she had gone
to the bottom. One of the two sur
vivors was at the wheel at the time
the order was given, the other upon
watch. AS soon as the ship began to
careen these two men rushed for one
of the small boats. which they jump
ed into as the vessel began to sink.
With their knives they severed the
ropes as the waters level was reach
ed and the small boat was thrown far
out on the waves. They say that they
discovered through the blackness of
the storm the figures of part of the.
awakened crew into another of the
ships boats. I his was. however,
caught in a trough of the sea. thrown
violently against the yentilators and
then wedged fast. Their pitiful cry
for help could be heard as the ship

DUST THE DEMON.
A russle with Coffee.

There is something fairly demoni-
acal in the way coffee sometimes
wreaks its fiendish malice on those
who use it.
A lady writing from Calf. says
"My husband and |, both lovers OF
coffee, suffered for some time from a
very annoying form of nervousness.
accompanied by most frightful head
aches. In my own case there was
eventually developed some sort of af-
lection of the nerves leading from the
spine to the head.
81 was unable to hold my head up
straight, the tension of the nerves
drew it to one side, causing me the
most intense pain. We got no relief
from medicine, and were puzzled as
to what caused the trouble, until a
friend suggested that possibly the cot
fee we drank had something to do
with 1t, and advised that we quit it
and try Postum Coffee.
I'VE followed his advice. and from
the day that we began to use Postum
we both began to improve, and In
very short time both OF us were
entirely relieved. The nerves became
steady once more, the headaches
ceased. the muscles in the back of my
neck relaxed, my head Strengthened
up and the dreadful pain that had SO
punished me while used the old kind
Of coffee vanished.
I'VE have never resumed the use Of
the old coffee. but relish our Postum
every day as well as we did the
former beverage. And we are de-
lighted to find that we can give Il
freely to our children also. something
we never dared TO do with the old
kind Of coffee" Name given by Pos
tum Co., Battle Creek. Mich.
Postum Coffee contains absolutely
no drugs Of any kind, but relieves the
coffee drinker from the old drug

Japan with the exception of payment
of indemnity had practically been ar
ranged on a basis satisfactory to both
sides, but that Russia would never
pay an indemnity. If the latest pro-
posals of Japan mean that she valves
all claims to indemnity of any kind
or description, giving up all idea OF
reimbursement for the expenses of the
war in any guise whatever, and, in
place thereof, is prepared to accept
for the restoration to Russia of the
northern half of Sakhalin, redemp'
ton price to be fixed by an unbiased
commission, this price to be deter
mined upon the actual value of the
island and not to take into account
Japan's war expenses or to carry a
concealed indemnity to Japan, there
is reason for the assertion that in all
probability, Japan's proposal was
never understood here in this way,
and for the deduction, according TO
the Russian official statement, that
the stumbling block to peace can be
removed and that there ought to be
new and prompting basis for the
continuation of the negotiations.

Chicago, Sept. 2. - An acute stage
has been reached in a new labor war
in Chicago. Nineteen of the larger
job printing houses of Chicago were
without union compositors this even
ing, the result of a series of strikes
inaugurated by Typographical Union
No. 16 against members of the Chi
cago Typothetae, the purpose of the
strikes being to compel the Typothe-
tae as an organization to accept the
demands of CLOSED shop" and that
eight hours constitute days work.
Further strikes are expected in case
other houses undertake to do work
for concerns for which the strikes
have begun as the result of the post
ing of notices Of an intention to in
augurate open shop" and mine
hours" where it is claimed contrary
conditions had been the rule. Pend
ing such assistance to strike affected
firms the strike leaders pronounced
the strike complete and declared the

in the nineteen printing houses in
volved, printers to the number Of
nearly 800 are idle. The strikers
claim that eight large establishments
will remain neutral not accepting
work for houses where strikes are in
progress and that in the eight and
elsewhere $500 members of the union

Asked 10 Furnish Money for Russian
Indemnity.
HIS CHANCE FOR GREATNESS,
Unique Request Made of Rockefeller
The Item Concludes With
Lengthy Arguments Showing 5ene-
fits Such an Act Would Confer.

Paris, Aug. 29.--Owing to the re-
ports from Portsmouth indicating that
the question of peace between Russia
and Japan hinges solely on Russia
paying an indemnity to Japan, the
Matn cabled a remarkable appeal to
John d. Rockefeller at Cleveland. The
appeal in part follows:
1.-The question of money threatens
to unloosen afresh and with redoubled
violence the scourge of war. Presi-
dent Roosevelt is making noble and
heroic effort to end a struggle be-
tween two nations whose populations
amount TO one.seventh of the entire
population of the globe. His initia-
tive honors America in the opinion
Of tho civilized nations.
"The question arises as to whether
another American would not share
the glory of Mr.. Roosevelt and COM
plete his work by overcoming the sole
obstacle now hindering peace. He
would thus demonstrate the might OF
money in powerful and generous
hands.
"The Matin, constituting itself
spokesman for this sentiment, adj
dresses the richest citizen of the
world"
The item concludes with lengthy
arguments showing the immense
benefits >such an act would confer up
or civilization.
