MAY BE BIG STRIKE.
Freiaht Handlers Give Railroad Man.
aaers An UItimatum.

Chicago, Sept. IL. - Forty eight
hours were given the railroad mama
gers yesterday to respond to the de-
mands of the freight handlers for
skigher wages. In case satisfaction Is
refused, the union stands ready to pre-
cipitate what threatens to be the sec
ond great labor struggle in point OF
numbers involved of this year.
The freight handlers say they have
5000 men in their union In Chicago.
This is nearly twice as many workers
as were involved in the teamsters'
strike. Should the truckmen go out,
the effect of their struggle would be
similar to that of the drivers. 1t would
strike directly at the commerce of the
city.
An ultimatum to this effect was
prepared at a big mass meeting OF
freight yard employees which overflow
ed Wostas hall at 1872 West Lake
street 1t will be delivered this morn
ing to the railroads entering Chicago
by President p. j. Flannery and the
executive committee of the interna-
tional union.
The railroad officials generally are
prepared to refuse to accede to the
union demands, as they have done for
three months, although some of the
general managers last night indicated
that they would be willing to hold an
other conference with the union COM
mittee.
STRINGS to the UItimatum.
In spite of it's definite provisions the
ultimatum Isl not SO arbitrary as de-
clared by the officers of the union
Several strings are attached which
render the danger of a strike less inn
minent. President Flannery said that
1t would be necessary for the members
in any event, to take another vote be-
fore a walkout is ordered. 1t is pro-
posed to do this as soon as the answers
are received from the railroad man
ayers.
The freight handlers say they will be
satisfied If the railroad officials agree
to arbitrate the dispute or even if they
consent to another conference. The
demands amount to an average In
crease of 10 per cent in the pay of the
truckers, stevedores and yard men. On
ly upon the absolute refusal of the
roads to consider the demands Will the
strike become certainty
Should a walkout be ordered before
the end of the week the union leaders
declare that 5000 employees hired by
twenty-two of the twenty-four main
line roads entering Chicago will quit
work. The two roads excepted are the
Alton and the Pennsylvania. Several
officials expressed doubt regarding the
effectiveness of strike order on the
Northwestern road, where it is ad-
mitted that the freight handlers are
poorly organized.
Discount Claims Of Union.
Railway officials say that the union
officials make too great claims for their
organization.

PUTS A CHECK ON DIVORCE.
Canadian Synod Loads Anglican
Church in War on Separation.

Quebec, Sept 11.-No clergyman
owing obedience to the church of Eng
land in Canada hereafter can solem-
nize marriage between one divorced
person and another as long as the 9TH
er party to the divorce is living.
This was the decision reached re-
Gently by the general synod Of the do
monion of Canada, representing every
the Atlantic to the Pacific, and from
the American boundary to the Arctic
Ocean.
The bishops were unanimous on the
subject, nineteen of them being pres
ent. Only eight of the clergy opposed
it. But the laity almost defeated It,
the majority of the canon lay votes
being only nine. The Canadian branch
OF the Anglican church Is the first In
the world to take this action.
A strong fight was waged all day in
the synod for permission now for the
marriage of the innocent party to a
divorce on the ground Of justice. The
convincing argument the other way
was the facility. with which Canadians
obtain divorces and then remarry here
and also the number Of divorced
Americans who come to Canada to be
married.
Bishops Doane Of Albany, Tuttle of
Missouri, and Morrison of Duluth.
spoke strongly on the evils Of divorce
in the United States and a statement
Which had great weight in producing
the adoption Of the canon was that
made by George c. Thomas of Phila-
delphia, who said an American judge
told him he dissolved ten times as
many marriages as any Clergyman
solemnized.

No Time Tables.

Lew Dockstader, the minstrel man.
went away from Washington the last
time he was there with a new story to
tell. He was walking along 1'ennsyl-
vania avenue, down near the Capitol
and he met gorgeously arrayed col
ored man. From his head down the
glory of the man decreased, as does
the intensity of light, inversely as the
square of distance. His hat was SUI
perb. his coat fine, his trousers only
so so and his shoes mere beris; but
below his cleaning shirt front was a
double -breasted, low-cut, white waist
coat.
Hold on" said Mr.. Dockstader
Don't you know you are not allowed
to wear a vest like that before six
o'clock"
The gorgeous colored person paused
Go on, white man." said he; Il
don't low nobody to write no time ta-

Party Will Be Fined Heavily.

Houston, Texas, Sept. 1.-THE MAX
ing of goo-goo eyes is now a misde-
meanor in Houston. The law has just

Ream of Chicago and New York. it
develops, was the hero of the big po-
ker game on the high seas in the mid
die of the Atlantic about week ago,
which was told of in the dispatches
from New York. On the Kaiser Will

much fine gold that belonged to sew

George Westinghouse, the man who
invented the air brake, and the honest
man recently selected by Thomas F.

The Kaiser Wilhelm landed in New
Ream stepped ashore just 100000 rich
er than he had been a few hours be-
fore. The night before the landing,
the last game played in the saloon,
did the trick. The four financial stars
played to crowded saloon. The game
had been going on steadily for four or
five days, but on Wednesday night the
limit was taken off and the financiers
loosened their belts and fell to.
The betting started low enough, but
as the time left for play dwindled the
stakes grew. Big hand followed big
hand, and at last the watchers got a
universal and unanimous headache ev-
cry time they tried to count the mon
ey. Some of the men in the crowd
whose cigars exhaled a certain strength
of their own, decided that the United
States mint had broken loose and
formed combination with the Bank
of England, with the joint riches of
both on the gaming table.
Final spIurge Decided On.
After several small jackpots of $25.-
600 and other such trivial sums, the
quartet of gamesters, after trying to
quit for long time, and falling down
before the fascination Of the gama,
agreed on one grand finale, where all
limits of the past were to be dwarfed
and forgotten.
And then the fun began. The hand
was dealt around and the betting
started. Before the players drew cards
for the final Titanic struggle there was
over $40. 900 in the pot. After the draw
the game continued to grow faster and
fiercer.
