early date. and that it will hold meetings
In every principal city of the dominion,
probably completing its Investigations IN
time to enable the government TO bring
in a general revision of the tariff at the
next session of parliament The general

tariff which would apply to countries pur-
suing a hostile tarin policy, a minimum
general tariff to apply to countries which
do not legiSlate IN a manner regarded as
commercially hostile. Below the general
minimum tariff there would be retained the
British preference.
In order to secure the withdrawal of

THE STRIKE LOST SIGHT OF.
Interest In Chicago Now Centering
On Charges of Bribery I'm Con-
nection with Labor Unions.

Chicago, June 1.-THE teamsters'

MISSOURI "LID" LAW UPHELD
day Is Not Class Leg
isIation.

st. Louis, June 14.-Judge Moore of
the court of criminal correction has
upheld the constitutionality of the Sum
day closing law, which had been at
tackled by motion filed by Casper
Carl, saloonkeeper at 1889 Clayton ave-
nue., on the ground that it is class Leg
islation
In his motion, Carl insisted that the
law was class legislation, because it re-
ferred only to one class, saloonkeepers.
When his motion was overruled he
pleaded guilty to the charge of giving
away liquor on Sunday and was fined
$50, which he paid.
Judge Moore said that the saloon
keepers license was granted him in
consideration of his promise to obey
the laws governing dramshops, Others
can give liquor away, he said. because
they are not bound by the license
which makes it possible for saloon
keepers to sell and which removes that
privilege from them.

st. Petersburg, June 14.-Instead of
publishing the text of its official reply
to the message from President Roose-
welt regarding the initiation of peace
negotiations with Japan, the Russian
government decided, with the purpose
of taking the public into its confidence
regarding the prospects of peace, to
issue a statement summarizing the
status of negotiations which will APP
pear in the form of communication
in the foreign Office gazette This
statement, which pays graceful
tribute 20 President Roosevelt's &C
ton, expresses in general way Rus
sia's willingness to negotiate, without
entering into particulars which can
not be considered to be definitely de-
termined until the receipt of the Jap
aneseTeply. The Russian government,
under the circumstances, has deemed
it best to leave to the Washington
government the publication of the Rus
