Chicago. May 3.-The fighting yes
terday in the streets was even more
fierce and savage than that of the day
before. The strikers and their sym,
pathizers attacked the non-union men
al every opportunity, assailing them
with bricks, stones. clubs, knives aud
any other offensive weapon upon which
they could lay their hands. The fight
ing occurred in the heart of the busi-
ness section of the city, men being
shot down within 200 feet of the retail
store of Marshall Field & Co.. and

their own lives.
! In many instances men walking
along the streets who had no active
connection whatever with the strike
were assaulted by hoodlums, who beat
them first and later accused them uf
being strike-breakers.
| A notable instance of this kind was
that OF Rev. W. X. Wheeler. pastor Of
the Ninth Presbyterian Church. who.
while passing the corner of Desplaines
and Adams street. on his way to the
Pennsylvania station, was attacked by
three men who knocked him down and
beat him numerically, until the timely
arrival OF the police saved him from
critical injury. Mr.. Wheeler managed
/ TO hold one of his assailants until the
police could arrest him.

When the employers received this
tiltimatum they notified the team OWL

quest that no discrimination be made
in deliveries an effort would be made
to have all existing contracts between
the team owners and the business
houses and the railroads cancelled.

PICTURESQUE yaeanese Memorial.

Fusan. Korea. May 3.-The anniver~-
sary of the battle at Yalu was ccIe-
brated by General Kuroki's army Moa-
day. with spectacular fetes. Soldiers
representing all military organizations
managed to work with remarkable ef-
feet.
The valley in which the head
quarters is encamped was transformed
into park by utilizing streams. grass
plots and hill sides for the reproduc-
tion of Japanese scenery.
An altar with a tablet in memory OF
the army's dead was erected on the
summit OF the hill. The approach 10
the altar was wide avenue through q
grove OF trees studded with artificial
cherry blossoms and crossed by fri-
umphal arches. Other features Of the
decoration were an equestrian statue
representing General Huroki. and re-
production of the Yalu battlefield.
Shinto Buddhist services in memory Of
the dead soldiers were held at the
altar, with troops massed at the fOcf
of the hill.
Race, tracks, theaters,. and pro-
fusion of unique decorations were laid
out on the plain. Several hundred Of
hcers lunched at tables spread under
the trees. and amusements which fol-
lowed included a procession represent
ing the Samamuri warriors and follow
ers of feudal times. Horse racing. the
atricals and wrestling completed the
days program.

LAND OFFICES PROTEST.
Colorado Officials Object to Proposed
Consolidation.

Washington. May I'm response to
a call for reasons why the land offices
at Lamar and Del Norte should not be
consolidated with the land Office at
Pueblo. Commissioner Richards of the
General Land Office to-day received
letters from the officers of both offices,
stating reasons why, in their opinion,
the proposed consolidation should not
be carried into effect.
The Del Norte officials in their letter
say that consolidation of Del Norte will
work n great hardship on the public,
as 1t would compel those having bust
ness before the land office to travel
over 800 miles and at considerable en-
pense. II is the opinion OF the Off.
cials that the business of the Del
Norte Office will be larger during the
coming fiscal year than during the
past. Business commenced 10 increase
during April and up to the 25th of the
month the receipts were $1,000.
1t is expected by the local officials
that the action of the State Legisla.
ture in appropriating funds for sur.
veys of reservoirs and irrigation enter.
prises has already encouraged settlers
to file on government lands In this dis.
trict. 1t was pointed out that the COM
missioner's letter contained an error
as to the expenses for the past nine
months. These were $2.063 instead of
2,403, as stated in the letter. The
actual expenses were less than one
third of the receipts. consequently,
under a strict construction of the rule
the office was not in the class liable
to consolidation.
officials of the Lamar land Office
write that the Lamar district contains
over 100000 acres of unappropriated
land and that 100000 acres will be
added to this amount when cancella-
ton of entries now under way shall
be completed. One reason given fo
the recent falling Off in receipts is that
the introduction of the BROOKS $40
acre homestead bill operated against
entries. Parties held of from making
entries and final proofs in the hope of
getting the benefit of enlarged priv
:leges contemplated by the passage OF
the bill.
The ofiicials state that the prospects
are encouraging for q considerable in
crease in business and there Is much
greater need for the retention OF the
office at this time than for many years
past,

Speech and Shakes Hands with All
Present.
Glenwood Springs. April 30.-Unique
in the history. OF Colorado was the
church 3ervice held at the old Blue
school house on the West Divide creek
today and attended ~ President
Roosevelt and his hunaag party and
all the ranchmen and their families for
miles around. The little district school
building was not tenth part large
enough to accommodate the congrega-
tion and as a result the organ was
moved to the platform In front. On
this platform seats were provided for
the President and his party. the Rev
Horace Mann OF Rife. Colorado. who
preached the sermon, the choir and
the trustees of the church.
The members OF the congregation
stood or sat on the ground. or In their
conveyances. which were grouped
around the building. The sermon by
the Rev. Mann was OF an unusual kind.
II began with story. teemed with
slang OF the Western flavor. and was
full OF advice suited to a congregation
inuring itself to the hardships of
mountain life. II touched upon the re-
sponsibilities of the position of presi.
dent as well as the characteristics OF
some OF the men who have occupied
that exalted place.
After Rev. Mann had concluded the
President spoke about ten minutes.
He expressed his well known views on
good citizenship. the morality OF man.
patriotism and duty to the home and
country. He was cheered heartily
heartily throughout his remarks. After
the services were concluded he shook
hands with every man, woman and
| child present. The services at the
school house were begun at II o'clock.
Long before that hour the ranchmen
and their families began to assemble.
Many persons drove or rode horse
back from New Castle. Rifle and other
towns from five to fifteen miles away.
The Presidents party presented pic
turesque appearance as 1t came up.
The members of 1t were on horseback
and dressed In hunting clothes. They
had no others at the camp. Many Of
those In the congregation wore their
best. The dresses and hats of the
women were snowy and In striking
contrast to the mud-spattered tan
duck. blue jeans and other rough ma
terials making up the costumes OF the
President and his fellow hunters.

SLACPILE NOTES.

The Atlanta Journal says:
 Not a man will be left behind on Ire southern trip to Macon and Jacksonville if present plans announced pan out. The complete squad consists of two back shoppers, seven slabmen, five infielders and three outheders, and from this ar ray at least sixteen will be forwarded down to finish the exhibition campaign of the year. In these battles no slabman will be relieved of complete nine round go unless driven to cover and so these final gameswil put the finishing touches on few jobs that are now hanging in the balance.
 The team leaves Wednesday forenoon, opening with Smiths Maeonian outfield the same afternoon. Two games are billed O. the journey down to the Central City while Friday, Bob Benders Jays will be the opposing array. Friday, Saturday and Sunday will wind up Jaytown, with stop over in Macon Monday for the closing exhibition contest of the spring season.

 The Southern League lost a chance to have a star when Gleason refused to come to Birmingham. The St. Louis Globe Democrat says of him:
 Gleason will be on third for the Browns and he is due to stay there as long as he plays the game he did Thurs day. Rockenfeld was out of the game Thursday because of illness. and he was still unwell yesterday. the trouble being an attack of ehills and fever, which forced him out of the game for couple or days down south. Manager McAleer dc es not think it wise to take Gleason of third as long as Dumping Is play ing the game he did Thursday.
 "Rockenfelds work at third has not been by any means as bad as his record will show. He has made but one error in the series, and that an excusable one as he stumbled while throwing to first He has not the whip for third baseman how ever. and when the base runners get to moving faster will have trouble in beating them out. Gleason not only has better style of throwing for a third baseman, but has had lot of experience at that bag as we'll. As long as he holds his own with the bat Gleason is due to stick at third, but if he fails to bat McAleer will have to make another try with Rockenfield or Moran.
