Chicago. May 20. - Peace in the
transfers strike is still hanging in
the balance, and. although it is gen
orally expected that settlement will
soon be reached, it seems tonight fur
Their away than it did twenty-four
hours ago.
1t was confidently asserted by the
Team Owners Association that the
transfers had consented to arbitrate
with them the question of whether or
not union transfers should make de-
liveries to the boycotted houses. Presi-
dent Shea, of the Transfers union,
today upset their arrangements en-
tirely by declaring that he had never
agreed to any such proposition.
Members of the Team Owners asso-
citation. however, stated just as posi-
lively that the officials of the Team
sters' union had agreed to such an
arbitration.
This misunderstanding caused a
halt in the impending settlement and
a meeting was arranged for tonight
between the team owners and the
teamsters.
At the headquarters Of both crgani-
cations it was denied that such a
meeting was to be held. 1t is posi-
lively known. however, that arrange

PEACE HANGS FIRE:
STRIKE NOT SETTLED

ments were made for the conference.
For the first time in several days
the spirit of riot broke out today, and
there were numerous fights between
non-union men and the union team
sters. One of the disturbances at
Twenty-second street and Indiana ave-
nue. blocked all traffic and delayed
street cars for half an hour. The po'
lice were compelled to use their clubs
vigorously in order to dispense the
crowd, and made several arrests. The
non-union driver for. the wholesale
grocery house of Steel. Weddles &
Co., the original cause of the out
break. through no cause of his own,
was badly beaten before the police
could save him. In some portions of
the South Side vigorous antagon-
ism to union men have developed, and
the teamster wearing union button
in driving through those sections
meets with abolt the same treat
ment as a non-union man does when
passing the teamsters' headquarters.
Several union teamsters were attack
ed today near Twenty-siXth and Went
worth avenue, and their union but
tons torn off. The union men were
also vigorously punched before max
ing their escape.

Torture of the Boot. -

AS late as in the seventeenth CEN
fury and in such civilized and ad-
vanced countries as Scotland, Spain,
Germany and France, the barbarous
instrument known as the boot -
was commonly used to extract infor-
nation from reluctant witnesses, or
to extort confessions from accused
persons. Sometimes the boot was
made of iron and heated to an I'M
bearable degree on the foot Of the
helpless victim. In his novel, "Old
Morality Sir Walter Scott alludes
to it as made of this metal. But in
those rough times four stout planks.
hastily nailed together often sufficed
for the purpose. Between the side
of the case and the leg of the per-
son it was desired to torture wedges
were inserted and hammered in. The
result was excruciating agony.

BATTLE is IMMINENT;
LEAVES FRENCH WATERS

suits of Rojestvensky's movements
are being awaited with intense inter
est in official circles.
ST. Petersburg.-Vice Admiral Bril-.
eff, who has been named for the SUI
preme naval command in the Pacific,
will leave for Vladivostok on May 25
to assume charge there and make
preparations for repairing and reft-
ting the vessels of Vice Admiral Ro-
jestvensky's fleet when they arrive.
BY imperial command Vice Admiral
Birileff will have all the rights and
powers of a commander of the army
and the commander of the Vladivos-
tok garrison will be subject to his or
ders, thereby avoiding the possibility
of any conflict of authority in case of
siege, as at Port Arthur.
81 have no intention of relieving
Vice Admiral Rojestvensky of the i'm
mediate command of the fleet If he
is we'll and able to perform his duties
on his arrival at Vladivostok, said
the admiral, who is small of statue
and scant of hair, but keen and alert
in bearing. 81 have high respect
for his qualifications as a fleet com.
mander, and there will be plenty for
us both to do.

END OF TRANSFERS STRIKE.
Indications Again Point TO Peace In
The Labor Quarrel.

Chicago, May 22.-All the indica-
tons tonight point to the end of the
teamsters' strike within the next "a
hours, it being predicted by both the
employers and labor leaders that the
trouble will be over within that time.
At 8 o'clock tonight President Shea,
of the Transfers union, and Attorney
Meyer, who has full authority to set
tie the strike from the Employers
Association, were locked together in
a room at the Auditorium Annex.
They refused to state what matters
were under consideration, but from
other sources it was learned that
President Shea was making an effort
to secure the best terms possible for
his men before consenting to recon-
mend that the strike be called off.
After the meeting between Shea and
Mayer, the former reported directly
to the transfers joint committee
which met at the union headquarters
and continued its deliberations until
a late hour The sole power of call
ing off the strike rests in this body,
and it was freely predicted on all sides
during the early part of the night that
it would at some time before tOmor-
row noon announce that the end had
come. Several more of the leaders
of the strikes at the public schools
were today sentenced by Judge Mack
to terms in the parental school. The
boys were all under IA years of age
one of them being but -.

similar measure was adopted by the
Russian authorities at Port Arthur at
the beginning of the investment OF

that vladivostok is expected to be-

pany J. Kruttschnitt, vice-president
of the Southern Pacific, and Others
appeared before the senate on inter
state commerce today Mr.. Hearne
told the committee that in some in
stances the steel corporation sold its
products cheaper abroad than in this
country.
Judge Gary said products were sold
abroad at cost or less in order to keep
mills running to their full capacity
and this cheapens the cost to the do
mestic buyer.
Mr.. Hearne declared rebates and
determinations had stopped since the
rpassage of the Elllins law. He was
opposed to comforting rate-maliing
: powers on the interstate commerce
= commission. Mr.. Hearne denied that
any rebates were granted to his COM
pany by the Santa Fe road, and said
that his company received only the
price of the coal after freight charges
had been deducted by the Santa Fe.
Mr.. Krutteschnitt made statement
showing the prices of transportation
of commodities. He said the safety
appliances had cost the roads very
large sum. To equip the roads with
