LITTLE RIoTiNG OCCURS.
Police and Deputy Sheriffs Continue
to Guard Wagons.

Chicago, May 19.-No change was
noticed during the day in the method
of conducting street traffic by the
houses affected by the strike. There
was no abatement of police vigilance
and deputy sheriffs continued to man
wagons. Rioting, however, did not
mar the transaction of business to any
extent
Alderman Dever. chairman OF the

thing. He says that there are SO many

SHEA SPRINGS A SURPRISE.
Declares Teamsters Never Agreed to
Arbitration.

Chicago, May 19.-President Cor.
nelius z. Shea of the Transfers Inter
national union has thrown cold water
he had not considered arbitration in
any form between the Team Owners
association and the Teamsters' union
and that he had never agreed to arbi,
trate the question of whether the
teamsters should deliver to boycotted
houses.
The declaration of Shea came as a
explicitly stated that Shea had made
such an agreement. AT the time of
Shea's statement the team owners
were in conference selecting their
member of the arbitration board,
which they declared both they and
Shea had agreed TO.
81 am not going to arbitrate the
question of how they shall conduct
their business" said President Shea.
There will be no back door settle
ment When | am beaten | shall come
out and say So"
Gompers Corroborates Shea.
Like MIR. Shea President Samuel F.
Gompers of the American Federation
of Labor professed to be surprised to
read in the papers that the teamsters
had agreed to arbitrate the team own
ers proposition. He said:
Il have made no proposition to arbi-
trate this strike. | would not If
could and | could not If / would. All
can do is to pave the way, If 1t is
possible, for a peaceful settlement.
But the matter of settlement must be
taken up by the officers of the two re-
spective organizations-the Employers
association and the Teamsters. Any
statement that has been published
that l have proposed arbitration or at
tempted to effect a settlement is I'M
true. have no authority to take such
q course. The best can do is to work
for peace and try to bring the two
opposing parties together. If | can
find plan by which they can meet
then they must pass their own judg-
ment upon whether that plan is right
or not. That is the limit of my power
here"

REPORT OFFICIALLY DENIED.
Rojestvensky Has Not Asked to Be
Relieved From Duty.

Relieved From Duty.
ST. Petersburg, May 19.-The fears
expressed here that owing to the re-
ported nervous breakdown of Vice Ad-
miral Rojestvensky the Russian feet
In the Far Last would lose it's present
commander-in-chief turns out to be
unfounded. Captain Zilotti, the aide
de-camp TO Minister of Marine Avellan,
has given out a statement that Rojest-
yensky has not applied to be relieved
from duty. However, the condition of
the Russian admirals health continues
to be q source of anxiety. 1t Is con-
frmed that the report that he had APP
piled to be relieved may have arisen
out of the virtual decision, in view of
the condition of Rojestvensky's health,
to send Vice Admiral Birileff to Vladi-
yostok, where, in the event OF Rojest-
vensky's success in the coming battle,
Birileff will take over the supreme COM
mand of the Russian naval forces in
the Far East and occupy a post sim
liar to that of the late Vice Admiral
MakaroT at Port Arthur and of Vice
Admiral Skrydloff al Vladivostok.
Emperor Nicholas during the day
summoned Vice Admiral Birileff to
Tsarskoe Selo.
A junction was effected May by
the squadruns of Vice Admiral Rojest-
yenslly and Rear Admiral Nebogatoff.

the vicinity of the islands OF Formosa
and the Pescadores and then enter the
Pacific en- route for Vladivostok. This
is, however, purely speculative. Every
thing depends upon Admiral Rojest-
vensky's plans which, while as yet un-
disclosed, may include an extended
stay in Southern waters.
lt is reported that the contractors
who supplied the coal and provisions
to Admiral Rojestvensky In Indo-China
waters approached the French colonial
officials prior to the arrival of the Rus
sian fleet and arranged a rendezvous
at Kamranh and Honkohe bays. Con-
irmation of this report is, however,
not obtainable.

STOLE TO SAVE SONS LIFE.
Pathetic Story of Downfall of Des
Moines Cashier.

Des Moines, May 19.-Carl Nj. Spen-
GER, a former trusted employe of the
Des Moines National bank, was indict-
ed by the federal grand jury during
the day on charge of embezzlement
and for alleged fraudulent entries in
the banks books. The amount of
Spencer's alleged shortage and for
which he is being prosecuted will not
exceed $4,000
There is a pathetic story in connec-
tion with Spencer's confession, which
he made prior to the indictment. For
many years annually he had been TAX
ing an invalid son East for medical
treatment. He had been unable to
meet the expenses incurred by the
medical attention and to save the boys
life he took money from his employer
Another clerk suspected of the theft,
for which he was subsequently dis
missed from the bank, is completely
exonerated by Spencer's confession.

SIGHTED OFF THE COAST OF AMMAN
BELIEVED TO BE HEADED FOR

Singapore. May 19-The Russian
feet was in latitude 1880 north and
longitude 111.30 east (about 120 miles
northeast of Cape Varella, coast of
Annam) during the morning of May
16, according to report brought here
by the British steamer Hong Wan |.
The German steamer Segovia sight
ed forty-two Russian ships forty miles
from Cape Varella May Is, steaming
slowly north.
The latitude and longitude in which
the Russian feet was reported by the
British steamer Hong Wan l. does not
indicate that naval battle Is i'm
minent. The Russians were on May
16 only about $50 miles from the coast
Of AMMAN and apparently heading for
the waters of the island of Hainan,
near which, according to Hongkong
dispatch, $50 iunks laden with provi-
sions were waiting for the Russian
feet. Even In case Admiral Rojest-
vensky decides not to take these sup
plies on board or if the Hongkong re-
port la incorrect the Russian fleet May
16 was still about 700 miles from the
southern part of the island of For
mosa, where, it has been asserted, Ad-
miral Togo may give battle and it is
doubtful Ii the feet can now make
more than zoo miles day under the
most favorable circumstances.

it not benefit every organ of the sys-

nate the large amount of poison that
collects in the system9 Is not regulat-
ing the bowels beneficial to the entire

the proper condition of health? If SO,
why should it not he just as necessary
to open up the seven million pores in
the skin, which is the sewerage OF the
entire system, letting off the deadly
poison which thousands of people are
carrying about in their bodies perfect
