New Chemical Engine for North End
 House Will be Inspected.

The board of public safety is de- termined that the new chemical en- zine for the North Willow street en- zine house shall be in the annual eX- hibition or inspection of the fire and police department which has been set for November IT. It was not the in- tention of the makers to have the ma chine ready until late in the month, but the board got busy and wired the company in emphasis what the con tract called for and that if the engine is not ready on the date specified, 1t won't be needed. This had the desired effect and word has been received that it will be ready for the 18th.
 As to the men who shall occupy the rev engine house they have been al- ready appointed and are doing active service All that Is necessary is to have the chief of the fire department select them for the house It is the idea to keep the new men where they are at present stationed so that they may be under the conservatorship of the older hands as it were, and put some old timers in the new house. But there is no telling what this board will do, 1t has done so many and such strange things, and the man who con slders himself safe and intact in his present place, may find himself pushed up to the new house. It is proposed to have the new house occupied by De- cpmber i

TO STOP STRIKE
Decision Received With Joy .Ahsence of fConveniences
 of Life Sorely Felt.

St Petersburg, Nov 3.-The decls- ion of the strike committee to call or the strike at noon to-day was recelved with joy by all classes of the popula- tion as the absence of newspapers, electric light and other conyeniences of life is severely felt. The railroad men, however, have resolved to con tinue the strike which entails a con- tinuance of the high prices of provis- ions.
 A great demonstration is promised for Sunday when the bodies of the victims of the conflicts of Tuesday will be inferred. The strike committee sent deputation to Count Witte to day and informed him that the work men would preserve order at the fu nerals
 The amnesty manifesto did not ap- pear this morning and the radicals are impatiently' demanding the release of all political prisoners.

DAHILL'S FALL
The We'll Known 'Steeple Charlie" Tumbled Down
 Seventy.Five Feet.

J. Frank Dahill of 75 Grove street, Meriden, one of the best known 'Steeple Charlies'' in this section of the country, met with serious aeci- dent at the plant of the Randolph Gloves Co shortly after 1 o'clock this afternoon. He was painting an Iron smoke stack when the coupling of his seat gave way and he fell to the roof of building, a distance of 75 feet, and then rolled off onto an iron floor. fracturing one of his arms and receiv- ing other bruises. It is thought that his back is broken, but it Is not certain about that. Dr Pomeroy was sum- mOned and ordered the patient remOv- ed to the Waterbury hospital and ne was taken there in Lunnys ambu- lance. The rope dragged through the fastening and this helped to break the fall some, and probably was the means of saving his life. Jack" has been operating about town all sum- mer and never got scratch before. One of the last jobs ne did was the flag pole on the top of the Apothecar- ies' Hall building. where his presence on the top of the pole created conster- nation in the hearts of pedestrians on the street. Considering the severity of the shock he showed wonderful grit and everybody wondered how he managed to retain consciousness.
 The hospital authorities said at press hour that it was impossible to tell whether Dahill would recover or not.

RELIEF EXPEDITION.

Seattle. Wash, Nov 3.-Captain p. H. Jarvis, who commanded the relief expedition sent out by the United States government in 1897 to aid tue stricken whalers, stated to-day that if the whaling fleet now ice-bound in the Arctic was far eastward of Point Bar row it would be almost impossible fo: a relief expedition to afford them any material aid. as the difficulties of Are tie travel in the winter were such that it would be almost impossible to take sufficient food to aid so many men. Captain Jarvis states. however, that if the men can reach Point Barrow there Is hope that with the aid of the natives they may be able to survive the winter. Captain Jarvis is still hopeful. however. that the fleet will escape before the severe freeze-up of the winter.

BARON SPECK AT WORK
 ON DRAFT OF NEW TREATY
Will Inform This Government in Few Days What Germany Would Like-The Baron is Anxious ta Slave Off the Dreaded Tariff War that it is Said is Almost Sure to Come

Washington, Nov. 3-Baron Speck Yon Sternburg, the German ambassa- dor, Is expected to present in d few days to the state department the basis upon which his government is willing to enter upon negotiations with the United States government for new trade treaty or some kind of an ar engagement that will staye off the dreaded tariff war" which otherwise the department officials fear almost certainly to begin within four months The state department has, so far, fail ed to admit the German contention re- garding the arrangement" under Section 3 of the Dingley act, by the terms of which the United States se- cures favored nation treatment in the matter of trade with Germany. This German view was based on the fact that new treaties. exclusive in terms, had just been made with number of European countries, and that America was debarred from claiming the bene- fits of the special low customs rates named unless she entered into a special convention with Germany. But attention has now been called to the fact that this Dingley act arrange ment" is by it's own terms terminable upon one months notice from either party and it Is not doubted that with out prolonging the controversy over the effect upon the vitality of the Dingley act 'arrangements" of the new European treaties, Germany will give the requisite months notice be- fore March 1 next and thus terminate the life of the arrangement beyond question.
 Nothing is known officially as to the substance of Baron Sternburg's pro- posals. He may propose new ar engagement under Section 3 of the Dingley act, replacing the paragraph in the existing arrangement conferring minimum tariff rates upon American exports by new section limiting the minimum to a few articles of Ameri- can origin This has been suggested by the Germans on the ground that the general concession of minimum rates on all American products is a very much more valuable concession to America than this country is able to extend to Germany under Section ;;
 because the reduced duties therein pro vided for are limited to distilled wines, Vermouth, Argols, and works of art.
 Another course is the negotiation of general reciprocity treaty. Section of the Dingley act authorizing the negotiation of reciprocity treaties un- der specified conditions, has expired by limitation. The question of ex- pediency of negotiating such a treaty under his general constitutional pow CTS in view of the failure of the senate so far to act upon any of the pending reciprocity treaties. would have to be decided by President Roosevelt before the state department can enter upon the negotiation of details

MURDER TRIAL

For half an hour yesterday the trial of Ciriaco Capbianco for the murder of Angelo SOlomfta on the evening of July 2S, near the entrance to the Ran- dolph- Gloves Co.'S premises, was very dramatic.

Chicago, Nov 3.-While friends and detectives have searched for Miss Marie Louise Hill, member of the choir at the Moody church, student of so- clology and commanding the respect of those who knew her intimately, she has been prisoner at the Bridewell, committed to the institution on her plea of guilty as a shOplifter She was sentenced October 10, the day follow ing her disappearance, under the name of Annie Harold. ...-.
 Her dual existence and the mystery of her departure from her boarding place ended yesterday, when the ma tron at the Bridewell confronted her With her picture in newspaper and she admitted her identity.
