Pencils In Schools.

Something that children need to be
warned about is the exchange Of pep.
ellis and the wetting of the latter in
the mouth, says the Philadelphia In.
quirer. The spread of diphtheria in
school has often been traced to
this cause. Pencils may become in.
fected by being kept in one box so

ing pens or pencils see to IL that each
child's writing material is kept separ.

THE CHICAGO STRIKE.

After day and large part of the
night spent in conference with both
sides in the Montgomery Ward Il Co.
strike in Chicago, Mayor Dunno late last
night announced that he had made no
progress toward settlement of the trou-
BILE, and he did not seem hopeful that an
adjustment will come in the near future.
Further conferences were to have been
held TODAY, but it is not thought by
either the employers or the strikers that
any arrangement will be redchd.
The great obstacle to the settlement IS
that the teamsters insist that the strike of
the garment workers, now four months
old. be arbitrated before the teamsters re.
turn to work, AMI the employers insist
that the teamers return to work before
anything is done concerning the gar
ment workers.
Mayor Dunno endeavored last night
to bring about joint conference, but
neither side would consent to meet the
other.
The firm of Montgomery Ward Il Co.
succeeded in sending more goods to the
freight depots yesterday than at any
time since the wagons were under police
protection.
MAYOR Dunno declined last night TO
discuss the charges brought to his atten-
ton that bride had been offered for the
settlement of the strike.

A fight between union and nOnanion
men which attained almost the magni-

The nonunion men fought desperate
ly, but were overwhelmed BY numbers
and were compelled to run. All OF them
sustained scalp wounds, and James f.
Galley, one of the union men in the at

His injuries are not serious.

The Fleets.

Hong Kong. April l5.-A number of
colliers from Cardiff, and and Durham
have arrived here and are awaiting or
ders. The cargoes of the ships, it is be-
lieyed. are intended for Admiral Rojest'
yensky.
Annoy, Chins, April Is. (Noon). No
reports as to the whereabouts of Admiral
Rojestvensky's fleet have reached here
vet. The officials stationed here say II
is certain that the Russian warships have
not vet entered Formosa strait.
London, April l5.-The fact that the
whereabouts of the Russian feet are
known and those of Admiral Togo ale
screened causes many speculations. The
Russians seem to invite conflict in the
open sea, while Togo and the Japanese
admiralty realize how much would be
staked on an open battle. All this leads
to but one conclusion, to the minds Of
experts. Togo will strike, but it will be
in the nature of a surprise attack such as
was his first blow at the Russian Port
Arthur feet. He will try to pick of the
big Russian battlesbips piecemeal and
he will make sacrifices, but it will be of
his torpedo boats and other small craft.
His main feet will be held together and
he will risk an opeu battle only when he
has to.

dare to be outside the city walls. The
savage tribes, called head-hunters, made
their homes in the mountain jungles, and
were always watching to catch any unfor-
tunate seen wandering away from the
towns protection.
While the Myrtledene was dischargng
her cargo, a heavily armed party was
made up to make q trip inland. Being
able to take care of themselves the
head hunters did not modest them. The

in the gruesome possession Of 100 human

About two years ago the Myrtledene

The American ship Benjamin Sewell
which was wrecked in Formosan waters
sometime ago, which story is told in Of
fetal correspondence, issued at the State

savages caused the death Of eight mem

rest in a horribly cruel manner. The
Formosa islands belong to the govern
ment OF Japan, who warned the islanders
not TO repeat such acts in the future.
But something more impressive was de-
sired by this government, so more posi-
tive measures were adopted but the
japanese government who found great
difficulty in making the natives under

Big Bail for Mrs. Chadwick.

Mrs. Chadwick, when arraigned in the
United States District Court at Cleveland
Ohio, yesterday, pleaded not guilty to the
new indictment recently returned against
her by the grand jury, charging her with
aiding and abetting Cashier A. B. Spear,
of the Oberln Bank, in making false en-
tries in the bank books and in making
untrue statements to the Comptroller OF
the Currency. Spear was also arraigned
yesterday and pleaded not guilty to the
Joint indictment. The court increased
Mrs. Chadwick's bail from $50, 600 to
s27, 900. OF the 81, 900 added, IS, 900
was to cover the new indictment, while
81 900 was named on each of two OF the
old indictments, upon which no bail had
been specifically fixed heretofore.
In reply to question Of Attorney Wing
counsel for Mrs. Chadwick, in court yes
terday, District Attorney Sullivan stated
that Mrs. Chadwick would not be tried
on any ofthe indictments standing against
her during the present term.
This is taken to mean that the gov
ernnent will not try Mrs. Chadwick
again unless she escapes punis hment on
the conspiracy charge upon which she
was recently tried. 1t is known that
Mrs. Chadwick's attorneys are quietly
at work in another attempt to secure
bail for her. Including the bond de-
manded in the state courts for the re-
lease OF Mrs. Chadwick, it will now re-
quire a total surety OF $47, 900 to obtain
her release pending the decision Of the
Circuit Court of Appeals on the motion
for new trial.
Mrs. Chadwick was apparently in
much better health yesterday when she
appeared in the courtroom than during
her trial. She was fashiOnabIy attired
in black silk costume with big pic
ture hat.

Miss SUSAN B. ANTHONY as an
advocate of divorce lelped to make
things lively during yesterdays ses
sion of the National Council of Wo-
men in Washington. Trouble began
with the introduction of resolution to
the effect that the organization pledged
itself to cooperate with Church and
State to ascertain what are the chief
causes leading to divorce. Divorce in
this resolution was referred to as the
cause of most disastrous results in family
and State. The resolution also declared
"that we, the National Council of Wo-
men, practice and teach better methods
of scientific and spiritual marriage, which
must result in the higher preparation for
offspring" Miss Anthony asserted that
she did not consider divorce an evil by
any means, as 'it is just as much
refuge for women married to brutal men
as Canada was once refuge from bru-
tai masters" She declared that she
would never vote for a resolution that
will cut women off from refuge from de-
signing and brutal men. There WAS
some pretty plain talk, but in the end
the resolution was adopted.
