A Rap at Herr Bebei.

The invitation to NJ. Jaures came
from the sOcialistic executive commit
tee of the ruling party and it was de-
signed to advance socialist opposition
to the governments Moroccan policy
and demonstrate the similarity of
views on foreign questions. The sub
ject chosen was the task of the social
democracy in the preservation of the
worlds peace and the solidarity of the
international proletariat. Allusions
have been made in the reichStag by
Chancellor on Buelow to the contrasts
between Herr Bebel. the German So
cialist leader, and Jaures, to the disad-
vantage of Bebel and an account had
been circulated in the newspapers, and
not denied, that the emperor made
complimentary notation on the margin
Of newspaper clipping concerning
Jaures. The governments action is
not known % the public yet.
The semi-official North German Ga,
zette will contain the news in the next
issue. Herr Singer. who next to Be-
bel, is the leading socialist in Ger
many. says the action of the govern
ment is ridiculous and a confession of
weakness.

sation was created here by the an
nouncement that Deputy Jaures, the
leader of the French socialists. had
heen prohibited by the German govern
nient from speaking in Berlin Sunday.
Inc proposed address attracted much
discussion, owing to tne significance
as toreshadowing a common program
to be adopted by the social democracy
OF the two countries.
.aures' secretary was seen last
night and said that the deputy was
preparing to leave for Berlin. He said
that Jaures knew nothing of the inter

INTRODUCTION ISSUED AGAINST
PROPOSED ADDRESS.
MIGHT LEAD TO VIOLENCE
Chancellor Won Guelow Raps Herr
sebel, Leading German Socialist,
and Speaks Complimentary of M.
Jaures, Whose Scheduled Address
in Berlin Has Been Forbidden.

Berlin, July 7.-Chancel!or Won Bue-
low telegraphed Prince Radolin. Ger
man ambassador at Paris, yesterday TO
inform NJ Jcures, the French socialist
ic leader, that the German government
thought it best 10 debar him from
speaking in Berlin July 8 as had been
announced The chancellors telegram
to Prince Won Radolin was:
The press has announced here that
Jaures will appear before sOcialistic
meeting here July 8. Against the per
sonality of NJ. Jaures have nothing to
say. | respect his views on foreign
policy and not infrequently agree with
them. l am glad that on several occat
sions he has promoted friendly rela.
lions between Germany and France.
The personal value OF NJ. Jaures is not
considered, but the political role placed
upon nim.
The leading organ of the sociai
democracy in Germany, the Vorwarts,
announces that the assemblage is
planned to have an immediate infiu,
ence by the social democracy on the
foreign policy. and the war of the
classes is to be promoted upon an in
ternational formation. Still more
clearly is the aggressive intention OF
the promoters of this meeting ex-
pressed in the organ of so-called scien-
tific socialism, the Newcocken. which
says: Revolution dynamited the Rus
sian-French alliance. Now it becomes
the historical task of the German SO,
cial democracy to do for the French re-
public what the holders power in Rus,
STA are no longer able to do-protect
them from exaggerated claims by the
use of force as the result of imperial
istic Germany's policy
This is outspoken as TO the direc-
ton in which this demonstration leads.
The German socialists would use the
presence here of Juares in Berlin to
cover by his person their hostile en-
deavors against the state and national
interests. The imperial government
cannot refrain from using the means
at it's disposal to prevent the party
from seeking to destroy the existing
constitutionality and established or

speeches, which it had been announced
were to be made by members of the
German reichstag and then says.
Even although it was to be expected
That Jaures would have tact and avoid
anything that might be unpleasant for
the German and French governments,
one cannot have similar confidence in
the German organizers of the meeting.
Nearly year ago Jaures had an OPP
portunity of convincing himself at Am
sterdam how far behind the more prac-
teal and patriotic aims of their French
colleagues the German social demoe-
racy stands in its contrad. ctory. doc
trinaire behavior.
in such circumstances the French.
German understanding would gain
nothing by the probable course OF
events at the proposed meeting and
therefore consider it advisable that
the public appearance of Jaures at
Berlin shall not take place.

Seized h.NOO Rinea.

Heisingf0rs, Finland, Sept 12.-The customs authorities today seized 5000 rifles in the possession of people in the neighborhood of JAkcbstad on the gulf of Bothnia, which were believed to be from the unnamed steamer sunk by her crew Sunday, as stated In these des- patches yesterday. The steamer was discovered by the customs officers twen- ty miles outside Jakobstad and on the captain declaring that she was loaded with rifles and ammunition she was ordered into port to be discharged, when suddenly several explosions were heard, the steamer grounded in shoal water and the crew escaped in a life boat What has become of the crew is not definitely known, but Finnish revenue cutters have been ordered to watch the coast line of the gulf of Bothnia for them.
 Further details of Sundays affair show that when the customs officers boarded the steamer they were re- ceived by twenty of the crew armed with revolvers. The chief customs of- ficer was permitted to visit tho cabin. where after negotiations lasting an hour he was told that he and hls fell low officers had the alternative of leav- ing the ship or being blown up with her.

JAPAN NOT RESPONSIBLE.
Burning of Churches Due to Individual
 IPreKnOuaibIes


 Tokio Sept. 12.-Some American press comments attributing the burning of churches as an insult to foreigners and an outburst of anti-foreign sentiment have been received here with profound regret and surprise. An Associated Press representative has interviewed on this subject an old diplomat and statesman under the old cabinet, whose name is withheld by request. He said:
 Japanese youths and the lower classes are peculiarly excitable. No case of rioting has passed without col lateral issues which have no relation whatever with the primary object of the rising. The unfortunate occurrence against the churches and American vis- ltors Is more similar. Rioters have not the power of discrimination with for eigners of various nationalities. The unfortunate occurrence in regard to the American visitors was not a de- liberate insult to them as citizens of the United States. They simply were made a target by an excited, crazy mob.
 Nothing is further from the truth than to infer that Japan involves Pres ident Roosevelt in the unsatisfactory peace settlement. She is as grateful as ever for his good offices. Only the Government and plenipotentiaries are held responsible for disappointment of national expectations at the close of a costly war"

Many Killed or Wounded.

Tifis, Sept. 12.-Many Social Demo- crats were killed or wounded at 10 o'clock last night in a conflict with Cossaeks at the town hall and many were trampled to death in a subse- auent panic. Two thousand Social Democrats had forced an entrance into the town hall which was closed owing to the celebration of & religious holi- day, the beheading of John the Baptist.
 According to the official account the crowd roughly handled the commissary of police. whereupon the third company of the Poltava regiment was sum moned. The commander of the conn pany ordered the demonstrators to dis- perse, promising not to arrest them if they obeyed. Shots were then fired on the Cossacks from various places. A number Of rioters assembled in a neighboring house. broke through a wall leading to the hall and opened fire with revolvers on the Cossacks and police, wounding a Cossack and a DO. liceman. The Cossacks thereupon fired on the rioters. Oficial figures give the casualties as twenty-three killed and fifty wounded

 Honolulu, Sept. 12.--A dead man held the wheel of the schooner Charles Levi woodbury during several hours of the night of August on her trip here from Laysan island. He was Japa- nese member of the crew and died watching the wheel. He was found still holding 1t. and the vessel al- though. greatly damaged by hurri- cane, reached port in safety.

St. Petersburg, Sept. 12.--A holy war has been proclaimed in the Caucasian districts of Zangezur and Jebrail. where Tartars are massacreing the Armenians without distinction of sex or age. The country is swarming with bands of Tartars under the leadership of their chiefs. Many thousands of Tartar horsemen have crossed the Perso- Rus sian fontier and joined the insurgents in destroying Armenian villages. At the village of Minkend three hundred Armenians were slaughtered. Des- patches say that mutilated children were thrown to the dogs and that the few survivors were forced to embrace Islamism in order to save their lives.
 Naphtha firms are cut off from the delivery of oil fuel to the shipping com panies which are now confronted with the necessity of suspending their ser vices and discharging their employees, which would result inv leaving thou sands with no means of subsistence.
 The salt works at Baskunchak have been obliged to close owing to the scarcity of fuel and this will paralyze the fishing industry.

DEMANDS ARE REFUSED
GREAT STRIKE OF FREIGHT
 HANDLERS MAY COME.
General Managers of the Twenty-two Roads Entering Chicago Hold Conference and Decide to
 Take Firm stand.

Chicago, Sept l2.-Demands of the members of the Freight Handlers Union of Chicago for an increase of 10 per cent in wages; for an arbitration of their demands and the demand for a conference was refused today. The general managers of the twenty-two roads entering Chicago notified Presi- dent P. J. Flannery of the union that negotiations were ended. The news of the refusal of the general manager to grant the increase in wages, arbi- trate their dispute and the declination to hold a conference was received angrily by the men. They immediate meetings to consider the action of the roads.
 At the meeting of the railroad of- fcials there was little discussion as to what the action of the railroads should be. The meeting lasted only few minutes and before adjournment the officials of the railroads had pledged with any committee of the freight handlers. It developed after the meeting that the general freight agents and general managers had communi- cated with the freight handlers as in- dividual employees and informed each of them that the railroads were paying the highest wages It was possible to pay.
 Notwithstanding a feeling of cen fdence said to have resulted after in- dividuaI interviews with employees that there will be no strike, the railroad companies are going ahead with prepa- rations for one. The preparations are precautionary Cots are being hauled to the freight houses and hundreds of men have been tentatively hired to take the place of the union men should they vote to strike.
 Chief of Police Collins has been com municated with and he will furnish the freight houses with police protec- tion.
 The agreement which expired last June and which the union is seeking to re-establish with a. 10 per cent. wage increase is the one adopted as the basis of settlement of the big strike con- ducted by former President Curran of the freight handlers.
