1t was declared also that the drivers
for grocery houses which delivered
goods to any firms where the strike
exists would be ordered to join in the
lockout.
To Fight to Finish.
While the labor leaders were in
conference delegates of the Employ
ers' association, Commercial ex-
change, and Representatives of outside
Industrial organizations met and de-
clared that they would fight to a finish
for an 1'open shop" in Chicago.
Subscriptions were taken during
the day to strengthen the Employers.
leaning company, a weapon with
which the transfers union is to be
actively fought and last night Presi-
dent Mark Morton of the company,
who is brother of Paul Morton, sec
rotary of the navy, had over 10000
at his disposal and had ample assur-
ances from business men that he
could have as many times that
amount as was necessary.
Warn leaning Companies.
Throughout the day the officials of
| the transfers union were active in
| scattering warnings where they had
no ground according to their rule for
calling a strike One of the first
places where they called was the Of
| flee of the Parmele company. This
company has contract with all the
railroads entering Chicago for the
| transportation of all baggage between
| the depots and downtown hotels and
employs many drivers. They were
warned that if they made any deliver
les to or from any of the boycotted
stores their men would be called on
to strike at once. Similar warnings
were given to the baggage and parcel
delivery firms and especially to the
coal dealers. 1t is the intention OF
the transfers union to shut off as fa1
as possible all supplies of coal from
the establishments where strikes have
been called.
Situation More Measuring.
The situation last night was on the
whole far more reassuring. The la
Dor leaders say that they will if neses
sary call out every union driver in
| Chicago and will make appeals to the
freight handlers and railroad men il
| they find they are not able to win the
strike by themselves. No action il
this direction has been taken as yet
but the officials of the transfers I'm
ion say that it will be undertaken as
soon as circumstances demand.
Large Stores Without Drivers.
The number of teamsters on the
strike was nearly doubled in the early
part of the night, and as a result
nearly all large stores on State stree
will be without drivers this morning
Strikes were called in Stevens
! Bros, Boston store, Siegel e. Cooper
Mandel Bros. The Fair one of thu
largest department stores in the city
did not wait for it's drivers to strike
but told them they could go. The!
had expressed themselves as de
termined to strike, if called upon tt
make deliveries to any of the othe
stores where strikes had been called
The men at the Boston store had sail
that they would not make deliveries
and were all discharged. Among
others against whom a strike was or

No mass meeting in a municipal campaign ever before brought togeth- CT in Phoenix such an audience as that which gathered at the Doris theater last night It was not only an audience of numbers but of intelligence. Many women were present for the campaign has become one which is of interest to all. Most of those there sat atten- lively throughout the two hours of speechmaking interested to the last.
 Chairman Marshall of the republican central committee presided. Before in troducing the speakers of the evening MT Marshall said that he desired to say something in his own behalf. He had he said lived so long in this community that he had sup posed that he was pretty well known. Yet within the last day or two several of his friends had come to him and asked him on this occasion to define his position on the issues of the campaign. MT. Marshall presumed that reference was had to the subject of gambling. His life he said in Phoe- nix had been an open book. He was willing to stand by the record. He had been always opposed to gambling and vice in every form and he was now op- posed to them. But he recognized that the republican party should all ways be looked to for reforms and he believed that the reforms for which a clamor has been raised would be more quickly secured through the republican party than through any other He be- lieved that the present republican members of the council and the repub- lican members which should be elected would act upon the wishes of a major ity of the voters of the city.

GOING OUT OF BUSINESS
BigelOw the $l,5OO,OO Milwaukee
 Bank Defaulter.

Milwaukee, Wis, April 26.-Frank c. BigeIow the defaulting bank president. when interviewed by the Associated Press representative today said: "I owe John I. BrOadhead one of the heirs of the estate of F.. H. Broadhead s10O.- 900. l expected Broadhead to reach the city today but up to a late hour this afternoon he had not arrived. I ex- pect to make satisfactory arrange ments with him when we meet with regard to the amount of the indebted ness to him.
 q resigned as executor of the estate of Henry w. Payne and probably will resign as executor of the Broadhead estate. These are the only estates with which have any connection.
 'I resigned as director of the Wis consin Telephone company and severed my connection with the Northwestern Mutual Life insurance company and the Milwaukee Electric Street Railway and Light company"
 It is known that the Bigelow hold ing in the large Milwaukee electrical concern was turned over to the bank some time ago with various of the en- terprises which leaves him entirely free from m-anN- business propositions. Geo. r. Miller also eNecuJOf en the Payne estate stated tonight that he had closely scrutinized all the secur- ities of that estate since BigelOw's downfall and found them intact. No successor has yet been chosen to fill the vacancy in the bank caused by the removal of Bigelow. It stated positively that BigelOw will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. This statement was made by one of the directors to- night

the present agreement, United States either must conclude such reciprocity treaty or submit to the withdrawal of the most favored nation privilege and the imposition on American imports into Germany of the full maximum tar if rates which in many cases would be practically prohibitive would probably cause such an outcry from the great exporting interests of this country as to force congress to retaliatory Iegisla- ton and mark the beginning of a great tariff war. If Mir. Tower is finally inn pressed with the soundness of the Ger man contention respecting the inap- plicability of the existing arrangement to the new European treaties and pro- ceeds to draft a reciprocity treaty the is sue will Ee transferred squarely to the
 United States senate at the next ses- sion. This outcome is stated as prob able.

Germany Cancels an Ar- rangement With the U. $.
PROPOSES A NEW DEAL
A Reciprocity Treaty Involving a Longer List of Articles. The Situ- atiOn in Shape to Furnish Busi- ness for the Senate.

Berlin, April 26.-The imperial gov ernment, preparatory to excluding the United States from tnz privileges of the new reciprocity treaties signed re- gently with seven European states, has formally notified the American govern nient that the tariff agreement between ieTmany and the United States of July 10. 1900, will terminate on March l, 1906, the day that the new treaties go into effect. but that Germany stands ready to negotiate a reciprocity treaty with the United States.
 The German view is that the United States cannot reasonably expect a share of corporal benefits given by Germany to certain European states in exchange for other specific tariff re- auctions. without giving something in return.
 Washington, D. C.. April 26.-It is admitted by the state department that negotiations have been progressing for the last few months between the American embassy at Berlin and the foreign office respecting the existing reciprocity agreement between America and Germany but that the department has not been notified that Germany had decided to terminate it. The ef- feet of a declaration of that kind will be very serious unless a substitute is found, then possibly the United States and Germany will become involved in a disastrous tariff war.
 The situation briefly at this moment is as follows: In July 1900, a tempor- ary arrangement was entered into be- tween America and Germany under section of the Dingley act, whereby in return for the reduction of duty on German brandies, still wines and works of art entering the United States, Ger many agreed to give our products the benefit of tariff reductions accorded in the European clause above named. Germany has now withdrawn the agreement with these countries and is disposed to refuse the United States the benefit Of the special rates under ! the old Dingley convention.
 The state department holds that the new conventions are really nothing more than amendments Of-the original treaties and that therefore the spirit of the Dingley act agreement would seem to cause it to apply equal force to the new conventions. Correspond
 ence is now passing to clear up this l difference of views.
 In the background is a well recOgniz- 1 ed purpose on the part of the German | government to cause the United States | greatly to enlarge the list of articles , named in the Dingley agreement but | these are limited especially in tht l Dingley act but that object can be at l tained only by the negotiation of an entirely new reciprocity treaty. If the German government denounce;

 The details of the construction Of the vessels remain to he worked out but in addition to these which will be buII- in the United States it is quite likely that a yard will be constructed at ga Baltic port to be managed by Russiau workmen but under American engine ering and mechanical supervision. the Russian admiralty being extremels- anxious to utilize the rehabilitation of the navy for the encouragement of the ship building industry at home in or der eventually to render the countE5 independent of foreign yards
 The admiralty accepted Schwab's propositions strictly on their merits. he having convinced the authoritIcs that he can produce for Russia war ships vastly superior to anything now afloat at present or projected by any other government They will be mon ster 1s,0OO ton vessels of enormous horse power and a peculiar type. com bining the prOjectile resisting power ot the battleships with the speed and wid.- radius action of the cruiser. They win be delivered fully equipped with a~ nor and ordnance The remarHabl- advance in naval architecture and con struction of these American built shir is a guarded secret. but it Is believeI IL will involve the use of nickel steel of greater tensile strength which. tt the machinery, boiler. frames. etc. wil give greater power with decreased weight
 Mir Schwab guaranteed to create a vessel of 80 percent higher esncIencv than any now existing ft is under stood however. that not all the ships will be built by the Bethelem com pany as the time for delivery is a fac tor, Russia desiring that the ships be turned over as early as possible Wh.,r the Bethelem company will supply thc armor and ordnance. other American yards will therefore profit in the con struction of the hUlls- This Is in ac- cordance with the wish of the admiral ty. the Russian authorities in placing such a large contract having no des.r- to arouse hOsulities among the rival factories in America. the motive being merely to take advantage of Americau ingenuity in building up the navy.

of Aroostook has there been a season

This fact will have great effect in
