NEW YORK WILL BE PARALYzED.
All Employees of Elevated and Subway
Roads on Strike.

New York, March THE long
threatened strike of the employees of
the Interborough company, operating
the subway and the elevated railroads
of Manhattan, was determined on at a
meeting of the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers and the Amalgamated
association of Street and Electric rail-
way employees, held in Harlem tonight.
This action followed the receipt from
General Manager Hedley, of the Inter
borough company, tonight of letter
declining to agree to the terms of the
amended demands of the representatives
of the men at meeting held with the
officials of the company today. The
strike has been ordered to be put into
full operation at a. m. About 5000
employees of the subway and elevated
system are affected by the strike, which
will tie up all the traffic except surface
trolley lines.
The utter impossibility of the multi.
tude of travellers in the upper part oi
the island reaching their places down
town tomorrow is one of the most ser.
ious features Of the situation, and it is
feared will be the cause of much dis
order.

CRISIS AT HAND.

kuropatkin Must Break Through Jap
anese Lines or Lose.
= Niu Chwang, March Reports late
Monday evening and early this morning
show that the surpeme crisis Of the
great battle is at hand, if the armies
are not already clinched in a final
struggle. The vast armies of Field
Marshal Oyama and General Kuropat-
kin will, in the course of day or two,
enter general engagement, the issue
of which must be the signal victory of
one and the utter crippling of the other.
The last news from the front is that
General Kuroki's scouting parties have
joined those of General Nogi and they
are already in touch with one another
back of Telling. This at once tells the
terrible peril which besets the Russian
commander and at the same time hints
at a means which may prove his saliva
tion. The Importance of this news lies
in the fact that it shows conclusively
that Kuroki, commanding the Japanese
right flank, has thrown his right wing
far to the east and north of Mukden,
the storm center of the present opera
tions, while Nogi, battle SCARED from
Port Arthur, has hurried his powerful
brigade of veterans to the west of Muk-
den and, cooperating with the much
extended and weakened japanese left
flank, has, by joining communications
with Kuroki. completed the envelop.

WATER PUT UPON ARID LANo.
Three Sisters Company Applies for
Patent-Only Settlers Can Buy.

Patent-Only Settlers Can Buy.
Salem-The Three Sisters Irrigation
company, which has contract for the
reclamation of 27 900 acres of arid land
in the Deschutes country, reports that
water has been placed on 5000 acres,
in addition to the $4,000 already pat
ented. The state land board directed
the engineer to examine the land, and
if found as reported, to apply for pat.
ent from the United States.
An important question has been
raised regarding the qualifications of
applicants for arid land that has been
reclaimed under the Carey act. The
Federal law, which grants this land
to the state, specifies that it is to be
sold to actual settlers at the cost of re-
clamation. Recently the state land
board addressed letter to the Federal
land department, inquiring whether
sales of land will be restricted to those
who have actually settled upon it. The
answer received is in the affirmative
This means that, although man
may apply for land without taking uI
his residence upon it, he must make
the preliminary showing that he in
tends to become settler and before ht
can secure deed he must show thai
he has become a settler. In othel
words, the land can be sold only tt
those who will make their homes upo1

SHE MAY REPAIR AT MANILA.
United States Will Protect Blockade
Runner Carlisle from Japanese.


Washington, March Upon the
advice of the department of State, Sec
retary Taft has cabled to Governor Cen
eral Wright at Manila permission for
the British steamer Carlisle to remain
in Manila harbor until she has made
necessary repairs to her machinery. In
adopting this attitude in anwser to the
appeal of the ships captain, the State
department has added new construc-
tion to international law relative to
rights of belligerent ships in neutral
harbors.
The Carlisle is a British ship, but
she was chartered by the Russian gov
ernment and loaded with arms, ammu-
milton and food supplies for the Russian
garrison at Port Arthur. She sailed
from Vladivostok November 20 last,
but SO effective was the Japanese block
ade that she was unable to reach Port
Arthur. While cruising outside the
blockade line, she lost her propeller.
In disabled condition she drifted into
the harbor of San Miguel, Luzon.
The captain and supercargo, the lat
ter a Russian, went to Manila and
sought protection for their ship. The
State department was consulted by ca
BILE and granted the request, SO the Car.
Isle is to wait at Manila, where she
could be more carefully watched. Il
is probable that, as japanese warshipE
are reported outside of Manila harbor
she will be permitted after making re-
pairs to intern on the same conditions
as were imposed on in the case of the
Lena at San Francisco.

President Roosevelt Installed as
Chief Executive.
MULTITUDE SEES The CEREMONY
He Swears Fealty to the Constitution
Amid Scene Of Brilliant
Splendor.

v
Roosevelt took the oath of Office before
a vast gathering of the people he has
been elected to serve. The attendant
scenes were not unusual. Inaugura-
tions from the time the east front of
the capitol first became the setting for
the ceremony have been much the
same. Many of the central figures
have officiated in like capacity on other
occasions when presidents have acceded
to the highest office in the gift of the
American people. Chief Justice Fuller,
in administering the oath, repeated a
solemn function he has performed four
times-today his last. Yet, with all
this repetition, nothing was jaded and
everything appeared new.
The official entrance was dramatic.
All except those who participated in
the ceremony were seated. When the
justices of the supreme court, with the
exception of Chief Justice Fuller,
emerged from between the Corinthian
pillars and marched down the sioping
carpeted aisle to their stations, they
were greeted with applause. The JUS
tices wore their robes and skull caps.
Then came the members of the diplo-
matte corps in their gorgeous uniforms,
and they evoked thunderous applause.
Throughout this scene the demeanor
of the multitude was that of interested
expectancy. The enticing prospect Of
seeing the gorgeous and stately pageants
in review detrated in no manner from
the keen interest in the less brillian,
program in immediate prospect. The
attraction responsible for the assembly
of so vast throng was demonstrated by
the tremendous burst of applause which
heralded the presidents approach.
President Roosevelt came forth from
between the massive pillars quietly ant
composedly. He was escorted by Chic
Justice Fuller. With measured treat
in harmony with the dignified step o
the chief justice the president advanced
in state down the long aisle of distin
guished guests. By this time all wer
