MORE UPROAR IN
ZIONIST CONGRESS
CLOSING DAYS MARKED 81
GREAT DlscoRp.
zangwill, the Novelist, Hooted and
Pelted With Missiles When He
Attempted to Speak.

Basel, Switzerland, July 29.-Today
will mark the ending Of the Zionist
congress, as at sunset the gathering
will be declared adjourned. Yester-
days session, as discordant as the ones
that preceded It, was void of all actions
that could lead to definite results.
At the morning session resolution
was submitted from the executive COM
mittee declaring that it was inadvisa-
BILE to accept the offer of Great Brit
ain of lands in South Africa for the
establishment of an autonomous Jew
ish colony. The resolution, however,
extended the thanks of the congress
to the British government for its kind
offer.
The resolution followed the submits
sion of report from committee that
had visited the site of the proposed
South African colony, and had found
that the country was uncultivated and
inhabited by troublesome bands OF
blacks.
Immediately upon the reading of the
resolutions of the executive commit
tee, Israel Zangwill the novelist, and
one of the English delegates, who is
leader among the Territorial Zionists,
offered a substitute. AS the substitute
was read the congress went into an
uproar.
Mr.. Zangwill's resolution accepted
the offer of the British government tc
put at the disposal Of the Jewish ma
ton a large and fertile territory fol-
colonization, with autonomous rights
under British suzerainty, but added
that the territory originally offered
was not suitable, and asked that Great
Britain substitute other territory.
Attempting to make a speech in sup
port of his resolution, Mr.. Zangwil
was hooted and all kinds of epithet:
were shouted at him as he was peltet
with missiles of various sorts.
Delegates to the number of 120 gave
notice that they desired to discuss thu
resolution. Not being allowed to talk
they proceeded to make it impossible
for any one to be heard, and after sew
eral of the delegates had engaged il
fights the chairman suspended the ses
sion.
The afternoon session was repeti
tion of the one in the morning. Speak
ers, owing to the tumult, could no
make themselves heard, and when tn
session was adjourned for the da
amid scenes of great disorder, neithe
the substitute resolution Of Mr.. Zang
will or the original from the executive
committee had been put to vote.
Both resolutions will come befor
the congress today.

GOOD BOND BUYING
Stark Tusearawas 6s Were Active and
Stronger at Cleveland.

Cleveland, o., July 2S.-The bond
purchases were the distinctive feature
in yesterdays business on the Cleve-
land stock exchange. OF the $4,000
worth of bonds sold, Stark -Tuscarawas
6s lead with three sales Of five each.
The price for these lots was up "a and
n point from Wednesdays price of
S5. At the close, however, one Stark
bond sold at So. Certain prominent
men who are in close touch with brew
ing affairs throughout the state are
very bullish on Stark-Tuscarawas Sc
curities. They say that the men at the
head of the consolidated companies
made great success of the individual
companies, and it is reasonable to ex-
pect similar success for the merger.
Cleveland investors, as class, how
ever, have not taken hold of the Stark
6s very readily. Yet at current prices
the yield should be an attractive one.

NO HOHENz0LLERN
Norway Would Sooner Be a Republic
Than Turn to Germany.

Chicago, July 2S.-A special to the
Daily News from Berlin says:
Statements in the English press to
the effeSt that the kaiser sought the
czars supoIt for Hohenzollern candi-.
date for the Norwegian throne are
mistaken. Christiania statesmen say
that Germany is the last country in the
world to which Norway would turn for
a king because it fully realizes that the
selection of Hohen2ollern would not
only bind Norway hand and foot to
Germany, but would inevitably provoke
complications in England.
If neither a Swedish nor Danish
Prince were available it is almost GER
tain that the Norwegians would found
| a republic and choose Nicholson or
Nansen as it's first president. The peo-
Pile would abandon the monarchy with
reluctance because they are conscious
that the only republic in Northern
Europe would occupy lonely position
and could not rely on the whole heart
ed sympathy of the surrounding king
doms. Besides the establishment of a
republic would require sweeping
changes in the Norwegian constitution
and would generally revolutionize the
governmental system.

identified with reform movements.

QUARANTINE
Enforced by Memphis Against State
OF Louisiana.

Memphis, Tenn, July 2S.-Not be-
cause it feared the importation Of
yellow fever or through any dread of
it's spreading should 1t get within Its
borders, but in order to prevent what
locked like a boycott from surround
ing towns, Memphis today shut it's
gates TO refugees from New Orleans,
and q strict quarantine was declared
against the entire state of Louisiana.
The action was bitterly fought by To-
cal health authorities, who contended
that it was absolutely unnecessary and
would only tend to hurt the good name
of Memphis as the most sanitary city
IN the south, The Merchants and Cot
ton exchanges, however, made a strict
lemend for quarantine, and the city
officials reluctantly consented. 1t was
declared that a quarantine was so
necessary that without 1t business
would have fallen off hundred per
cent in the next week.

OUTCRY AGAINST &.
PROPOSED CRUISE
OF BRITISH CHANNEL FLEET IN
THE BALTIC.
The Berlin Press Claims British War
ships Have No Business in
Those Waters.

Berlin, July pa great victory Is
being raised against the proposed
cruise of the British channel feet in
the Baltic. Conservative newspapers
say that the act of the British admiral
ty in directing the channel feet to
cruise in the Baltic is on par with
England's usual insolence, and that,
considering herself the mistress of the
seas, she intends to treat the Baltic
as an open sea, in which she can do
anything she likes.
The press claims that the Baltic
must be regarded as being exclusively
under the control of the countries bor-
dering on It, and as Sweden, Denmark
and Russia border on 1t, they are TO
have much to say in the latter, and,
therefore, owing to their friedliness TO
Germany. she must be considered as
the mistress of the Baltic.
EXPLANATION OF KAISER'S
VISIT.
London, July 29.-The Berlin corre-
spondent of the London Daily Express
says that the explanation OF the
kaiser's recent visit to the czar and the
king of Sweden is that the kaiser is
preparing an important counter
stroke to the British naval reorganiza-
tion in the North Sea. The outcry OF
public opinion over the proposed Bal
tic cruise of the British channel fleet
he adds, is due to the usual press cam
paign.
