but he served to attract considerable
attention in Caribou, last Saturday at
ternoon. And well he might, for it was
one of the oldest sights imaginable.
Attached to the bicycle and used as the
motive power was a horse--harnessed
the same as if hitched to a wagon, the
whiffletree being fastened below the
handlebar. The young man held the
reins in his left hand. while with his
right he welded a whip-a branch OF a
tree he had cut, and seemed to have
considerable difficulty in getting the
horse to so where he wanted him to.
When last observed he was headed
toward Pressure Isle.

between Norway. ami Sweden, yet the
sympathy Of great many Americans
will incline to Norway. The two chief
reasons for this are. first. that the

from both these countries have come to
the United States in the past third of
a century, and no better immigrants
have reached our shores in that time.
They make the best kind OF American

such immigrants as those from Nor

STRIKE is PROBABLE

STRIKE OF PRINTERS
Trouble Likely to Begin in St. Louis
and Cincinnati Today Will
Certainly Snread

indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 10.-FrOm in
formation given out tonight by James
NJ. Lynch, president of the Interna-
tiOnal Typographical union, a strike OF
union printers employed in typOthetae
shops in st. Louis and Cincinnati may
occur tomorrow, and within few days
at least 100 cities throughout the Uni
ted States may be involved.
Il have received a telegram from St
Louis stating that 1000 printers in that
city today agreed TO demand the eight
hour day" said Mr.. Lynch last night.
Information from Cincinnati also in
dicates that "a strike may be called to-
morrow. OF course / am unable to
say that printers in these two cities
will strike until it is seen what action
the typothetae IN these cities will take.
In all cities throughout the United
States where there is not an existing
agreement standing beyond January !,
1906, and in which the typothetae re
fuses to grant the demand, a strike will
occur. AT this time 1t looks as though
a strike will occur. Should it occur it
will be one of the most notable in re-
cent years.
THE question has been brought at
this early date by the action of the
typOthetae in Chicago and Detroit. and
by the decision of the National Typo
thetae. l went TO Niagara Falls dur
ing the meeting of the National Typo
thetae and asked for a conference be-
tween the Typothetae and the Typo
graphical union on any proposition that
might lead TO a settlement of the ques-
ton. My proposition was refused"

SIMPLE JUSTICE.
Russia Will NO Longer Discriminate
Against American Goods.

Oyster Bay, Sept I0-At the conference
last night between President Roosevelt
and the Russian peace ENJOYS, NJ. White
BY direction of the emperor of Russia
presented the following communication:
Some years ago in consequence Of
misunderstanding in the Interpretation IF
the most favored nation clause. there
We're established in Russia on several
articles of American production, customs
duties on higher scale than those levied
on the same articles when imported from
other countries.
His majesty. the emperor of Russia
has commanded me 10 inform the presi-
dent of the United States that he has
been pleased TO order the diScontinuance
OF the levying Of such higher duties on
American products IN order that hence
forth American manufacturers should pay
the same duties as imports from other
countries"
referred 10 by NJ. Witte in his communica-
ton TO the president, and which by di-
rection of the czar have been discOn-
tinued, grew out of the imposition in
the early part of 1901 by this government
OF q differential duty ON Russian sugar
imported into the United States. Follow
ing this action of the United States was
the Issuance in retaliation OF an order
OF the Russian minister of finance. which
became effective March 9, 1901. imposing
maximum duties on certain American ar
ticles. the Increases ranging from 20 TO
| so per cent. Generally stated, these ar
ticles were cast iron wares: manufactures
OF iron and steel: iron ard steel boilers,
tanks. bridges, pipes, etc, machinery,
sewing machines, motors, dynalnOs, por-
table engines, locomotives and locomotive
cars, locomobiles and fire engines,
The controversy with Russia which in-
volved the imposition by the United
States of a countervailing duty on Rus
sian sugar by the United States grew out
of the allegation by American producers
that Russia was paying a bounty to her
sugar producers.

VISIT is PURELY SOCIAL

Oyster Bay. Sept 10.-Baron Kaneko,
the special commercial envoy of Japan
to the United States. spent three hours
today with President Roosevelt.
Throughout the recent peace negotia-
lions Baron Kaneko maintained the
closest relations with the president,
acting as an intermediary between the
japanese government and Baron Ko-
mura and the president. 1t can be said
that Baron Komura trusted him as he
trusted nobody else.
Baron Kaneko arrived on the 1890
D. m. train from New York. Awaiting
him at the station was one of the presi-
dents carriages, in which he was con-
Veyed to Sycamore Hill. After luncheon
the president and Baron Kaneko ram
bled through the woods for more than
two hours, returning TO the presidents
house in time to reach the village for
the soc train for New York.

low the expiration Of the franchises

the baron was asked.
yes. in a degree / think it has" he
replied. America sustains very
friendly relations in trade and COM
merce with Japan. I have formed
many charming acquaintance in this
country, and my sojourn here has been
very pleasant"
Hedged a Little.
Baron Kaneko was asked if Japan
was interested In the operations of
railroads in China or railroad conces-
sions IN that empire.
NO; not at all: not that l know of, "
he responded. "Of course, by the
terms of the treaty just concluded with
Russia we take over a part of the
Manchurian railway, but that is ia
pans only interest in China as far as 1
know"
Referring to the recent rioting in To-
kio, Baron Kaneko said:
while personally 1 have received no
dispatches on the subject, ] am as
sured that the rioting which occurred
was only d spontaneous upheaval of
sentiment due to a misunderstanding
of the situation as TO the treaty con-
cluded at Portsmouth. Now that a
correct understanding of the situation
is becoming general the trouble has dis
appeared. There is no anti-American
sentiment in Japan. Our people have
the greatest respect and admiral ton
for President Roosevelt and the high
est regard for America"
