A NIGHTS FROLIC.
Walter Edwards Scores Hit of seasoI at C0aino.

Walter Edwards Scores Hit of Season at Casino.
 Walter Edwards and his company seems to have struck the popular chord in entertaining Montgomery audiences. Again last night, the Casino was filled with an understanding and appreciative audience that seemed to enjoy every moment of the evening.
 The performance is an ideal one for a summer theatre "A Nights Frolic" Is a well written three act farce comedy and Is completely filled with unusual and unexpected complications of the original plan. There's a hearty laugh in every act even for a man who has the blues but an ordinary person should at least get ten good laughs out of every act If conditions last night were normal as they appeared to be.
 MT. Edwards does not have half so much to do in "A Nights Frolic" as he did In Fun in Boarding school the bill for the first three nights of the en- the same characteristic style that has made him popular with Montgomery theatregoers. MT. Edwards. however. Is far from being the Waoae sh1w nov Fir Fhe man" was finished and no opportunities in the part escaped his notice. The MT.

STAMPEDE FOR WORK
CHICAGO TRANSFERS SCRAMBLE
 FOR OLD JOBS.
Only Small Percentage of Drivers Who Walked Out in Windy City Can Re Accommodated for
 the Present,

Chicago. H.. July 21.-Teamster strikers who last night gave up their long struggle against the employers, broke ranks today in a stampede for work. The barns of the strike affected firms were besieged by men who have been idle for months and whose places have been filled by non-union men. The employers in many cases announced that there were vacancies for only 8 few. Of more than 1000 men who quit work not more than 1,400 or 1,5e0 will be reinstated during the next few days
 The coal teamsters and truck drivers did not join In the rush for re-employ- ment today. The order of the team sters' joint council which authorized the surrender was for all men on strike to ask for reinstatement this morning. Both the truck drivers and the coal teamsters baked at this and planned to hold meetings tonight and fight 1t out, till they can go back to work like union men," However, the boycott against business houses has been lifted officially by the action of the council, and 1t fs thetic strikes of teamsters.
 Nearly every one of the strikers of the department stores filed application for reinstatement In many cases the men were put to work immediately. At one store a number of men who obeyed the order to strike stood in line today and signed applications forfeiting their right to wear buttons of their union exposed. The express companies which fought their battle virtually alone and apart from the others are not to take back any of their former employees. Police protection will not be withdrawn for few days at least, as clashes be- tween non union men and unionists are feared when the latter return to work.
 The union button and the street blockade against non-union drivers, popularly looked upon as cardinal prin- ciples of the teamsters union, will no more be tolerated by any firm that has been affected by the teamsters' strike just ended, if resolutions adopted at a meeting today are carried out. Repre- sentatives of any branch of industry affected by the strike pledged them- selves to stand for the "open shop" and to enforce the rules put into effect by the Employers Association members several weeks ago.

.CHINA'S NOTE
 IS SERIOUS Of Deep Significance to
 United States. IMPORTANT CONFERENCE Roosevelt and Root Consult at
 Sagamore HILL stand Taken by the Celestial Empire May Threaten "Open Door" Pol-
 Icy in Manchuris, 1t is

Oyster Bay, July 21.-President Roosevelt and Elihu Root. who as- sumed formally last Wednesday his new duties of Secretary of State. were in conference tonight at Sagamore Hill Among the many questions con- sidered by them none is fraught with deeper significance and importance to the United tSates as that relating to an Identical note which the foreign office of China within a day or two has sent to tho powers neutral in the far eastern contest between Russia and Japan. The text of the note made public this evening by President Roosevelt Is as follows:
 Having viewed with profound regret the unfortunate interruption of peace- full relations between Japan and Rus- sia, the imperial government now learns with sincere qualification that negotiations are about to commence for the restoration of peace and amfty. But in the present conflict Chinese territory has been made the theatre of military operations. therefore 1t is hereby expressly declared that no pro- vision affecting China without the ap- proval of China being previously ob- tained which the treaty of peace may contain will be recognized as valid. The diplomatic representatives of Chi na in Japan and Russia have been in- structed by telegraph to communicate this declaration to the governments of Japan and Russia. respectively"
 On Its face the note appears to be q simple declaration that no termination of the peace conference affecting Chi nese territory will be recognized as valid without the approval of China Is previously obtained. It really means far more than that as 1t Is construed here. The United States in common with other nations. is interested par ticularly in the "open door, to Man. churia and behind China's simple de- claration lies the whole question of commerce and tho commercial relations of u great empire.

RavIings Found Guilty.

Valdosta, Ga. July 2l.--The Jury in the case of Milton Rawlings. charged with the murder of the Carter chill dren, returned verdict of guilty without a recommendation to mercy at S:45 o'clock tonight.
 Rawlings was in court when the verdict was read and for the first time since his trial began he showed the effects of the terrible strain un- der which he has been laboring. Af- ter hearing the verdict he sat for twenty minutes a perfect picture of despair.
 The court took a recess until Mon day when Jesse and Leonard Raw lings will be tried on the same charge.

An Enhancement.

Tokio, Japan, July 21.-2. p. m.-A special telegram from Otaru says that the Russians defeated at -Daline were about 800 strong and with six field and three machine guns, and taking the fullest advantage of the typographical character of the district, offered the most desperate resistance. The Rus sian positions were hidden among a thick forest. and it was impossible for the Japanase gunners to make cor rect observation. The cannonade however, was opened by the Japanese at o'clock on the morning of July and was kept up until dusk. The Japanese infantry gradually gained ground, closing in on the enemy's line of defense, awaited an opportunity for the final charge. It was nearly two hours past midnight when the enemy s first line of defense. strengthened by barricades and trenches. was taken This success was vigorously followed up but 1t was not until o'clock on the morning of July that the enemy was driven out of the second line of its defenses and victory secured, with the trophies of four field and one ma chine gun. The nature of the ground exposed the Japanese assailants to great disadvantage and risks.
 It was believed that owing to the short supplies of ammunition and pro- visions the Russians at Sakhalin could not hold out much longer.

The newspa- per will demand from the railroads honest methods and fair dealing. in their treatment of the public. and when they will be exposed and condemned. But in criticising the acts of the rail- road, the newspaper will never be in- tentionally unjust. To the reflective mind. the diffculty of adjusting local rates, satisfactory alike to the people and the interests of the roads Is ob- vious. Where unjust rates are found in freight schedules It should be the duty of the newspaper in behalf of the public to call attention to such frreg- ularities. in plain. respectful terms, when the roads. always alive to reason and their own interests, will seldom fail to give attention to the matter and make prompt correction of their own volition. Let the motto be a square deal for the railroads and a fair deal for the people. and a fair man for
 In conclusion. the relative position of nenswapers to the railroad may be briefly stated. The relation of each to civilixa tion Is potent. far-reaching and indispensable in their respective sphere. They are largely dependent on each other. But for the roads the great dailies as now conducted could not exist; and but for the newspaper. the roads could not prosper as they now do. It follows, therefore. that only the most intimate relation should shbsist between the newspapers and the railroads. since their interests are intimately blended. These conditions should inspire for all time the utmost friendship and good will between the representatives of these great agents of human progress.

New York, July 21.-Arrangements for the accommodation of the Russian and Japanese peace envoys during their stay in New York city have been com pleted. Twenty of the choicest rooms in one Fifth Avenue hotel have been engaged for Baron komura and his suite. The Russian envoys will be cared for at another hostlery near by on the avenue.
 No nefinite plans for any form of en- tertainment in honor of the Japanese envoy who has just started East from Seattle will be made until the party arrives and Baron komura Is consulted With the exception of some small enter tainments being planned by few of Baron Komuras intimate friends, among them Baron Kaneko. who was classmate of his at Harvard. 1t is not thought likely that the party will ac- cept any social invitations until after the conclusion of the peace conference at Portsmouth.
