Calumet, Mich. April 13.-The Cal umet & Hecla Mining Company today voluntarily advanced the wages of its 5000 employees ten per cent. This advance practially covers all the de mands that the men had to make, for nal transmission of which it was gen erally understood was to have been made to the officials of the company on the first of the coming month.
 The voluntary advance made by Cal umet X Hecla puts at rest. apparently, the chance for a strike in the mines of that great concern. There has been some talk of a sympathetic strike being among the possibilities. but it IS lis not now believed here that there IS a chance at the present time for such action to be taken.
 The employees of the Calumet & Hsc- la greeted the news of the advan ce made to them today with enthusiasm. General feeling of relief was evident n all quarters among the men that the company had relieved them of the Ee- cessity for asking for the increase in wages that had been decided upon. The contract matter is yet in abeyance. tut it is now felt that this will be disposed of satisfactorily to both sides.
 The strike in the other mines where workme,n recently walked out contin- ues. It is the opinion that the atti- tude taken by Calumet & Hecla will tend to aid a settlement of the difficult ties between these miners and their employers. Rumor is current that the employers have already decided to yield as gracefully as possible to the demands of the men. and that there will be a settlement within the week.

 Chicago, April l3.-Broomhall esti- mates shipments of 3,600,0 900 bushels. They also cable that general rains in Spain have extended to Castile end other regions. Our market showed an advancing tendency throughout the session. Short covering was at times rather general, induced largely by the continued complaints from the West and Southwest as to lack of moisture and weather being less favorable. The former leaders in the bear movement continue to talk friendly on wheat, and while they have been free buyers so far, the market has not made much headway on the bull side. This can be accounted for largely by the con tinued good weather and excellent condition of crops and area planted. Any unfavorable change in the weath- CT at this time could easily bring about sharply higher prices.

 New York, April 13.-Total sales of shares today, 1,549,2O0 Money closed at to 1-4 per cent; last loan. per cent. The potent factors in today's market were the removal of pressure from Union Pacific and the buying of the stock, which is taken to indicate that the accumulation of the stock has been practically completed, and the market for 1t will be free from the selling which has been a feature oI this stock for some time past An ad- vance in Northern Securities of nearly , points calls attention to the fact that the mandate of the Supreme Court will be handed down on Monday. and that this will be followed by the immediate distribution of Northern Pacific and Great Northern preferred stocks.
 The publication of pig iron statistics for the last month shows a production of about two million tons a month and consumption fully equalling the out put, and caused good buying of Steel Preferred, American Smelling and Copper. The strength in Smeiting was induced on pool manipulation and inside buying in connection with the reported plans of the American Smelt-
 ng Go. to acquire practical control of
 he smelling industry. Copper was taken in manner that stimulated a more confident feeling in the whole market. The market as a whole shows decided improvement, but in view of
 he advance of the last two days we would favor taking precaution on any further bulge tomorrow and waiting
 or a recession on which to get in again.

VESSEL TO GO 10 YOKOHAMA

Japan has invited Secretary Taft to
party of prominent officials, visits the
Mikado's kingdom on their trip to the
Philippines this summer, The invita-
tion has not come in official shape from
the government yet, but through the
minister here an intimation has been
given to Mr.. Taft that the N1ikado would
be exceedingly pleased to see him at
Tokyo.
Should Mr.. Taft accept the invitation,
it would not disturb the itinerary of the
Philippine trip, as the steamer on which
the party is going. one of the Pacific
Mail Steamship Company, necessarily
has to stop at the Japanese ports OF
Yokohama, Kobe, and Nagasaki.
Might Go to Tokyo.
It might be possible for the party
to leave the steamer at one Of these
places and go to Tokyo by rail. return
ing to reach the vessel before it leaves
japanese waters. No doubt the Jap
anese would entertain the American
Secretary of War in lavish style, be-
Heving that it would be an opportunity
to cement the ties of sympathy between
the two countries.
For the reason that too much official
significance in foreign quarters would
be attached to formal visit to the
japanese capital, Secretary Taft prob
ably will be disinclined to accept any
Japanese hospitality in an official role.
The japanese government would also
entertain Miss Roosevelt who viii be
one of the party.

LONDON, April 17.-Dr. NaEsen, the
great Norwegian Arctic explorer, who
is at present in London, seems to think
that affairs between Sweden and Nor
way have reached a stage verging on
revolt.

the historical side Of the Scandinavian

Arctic Exploration.
Continuing, ne said that Arctic explor
alton was r.ever further from his

the political crisis was over he might
lead an expedition to the Antarctic.

There are, of course: many other

HIS LATE PROMOTION
Long and Efficient Career of Officer Recently Appointed
as Head of the Revenue Cutter Service.
Sketch of the Man.

Antecedent to the retirement Of Capt
C. F. Shoemaker as chief of the Revenue
Cutter Service, on April l. President
Roosevelt has appointed Capt. Worth G.
Ross as his successor. Captain Ross Is
one of the most noted officers in the
Revenue Cutter Service. and his promo
ton to the office which he now holds
was in reward for faithful and con-
sistent work.
The work CT the Revenue Cutter Ser
vice has grown in Importance during
the last ten years, and as the head of
this arm of the Treasury Department
Captain Ross stands III the front rank
of Secretary Shaw's assistants. He is
particularly noted because of the fact
that he rose from the lowest grade In
the service to the highest.
His Official Career
Capt Worth G. Ross has been in the
United States Revenue Cutter Service
for about twenty-five years. having en-
tered as a cadet in 1877. He has served
through all the grades. and was pro-
noted to his present rank about three
years ago, since which time he has been
on sea duty upon the Atlantic coast. He
Cutter Mohawk, with headquarters at
New York
He mas served north. south, east and
west on vessels of the service, including
Bering sea and Alaska; on the practice
ship Chase as an instructor of cadets, IL,
which capacity he has made several
cruises abroad; as assistant inspector OF
nfe-saving stations and secretary of the
board Of life-saving appliances; on
boards for the revision of the reguia-
tions of both the Revenue Cutter Service
and the I.ife-Saving Service; throughout
the Spanish-American war with the
North Atlantic fleet in the blockade OF
the north coast of Cuba; and he has
written numerous articles and delivered
many lectures upon Revenue Cutter Ser
vice and Life-Saving Service.
1t is thus seen that he IS by actual
experience perfectly familiar with all
the work of the service, its ships and
its personnel He knows the character
and the needs of the service; and be
ing a man of more than average ability
and Intelligence, and OF progressive
ideas upon all service subjects, he is one
of the best officers TO administer its al
fairs.
In addition to the above he is the
senior officer OF the cadet graduates,

These men have been specially trained
and educated for the service. and III the
course of-eVents must control its work
and be held responsible for its efficiency
for the future
Captain Ross. however, represents no
particular element in the service, as a
large portion of the older officers are
his warm personal friends and sup
porters, and it is confidently expected
that his policy will be broad and
comprehensive one for the general well
fare of the corps.
His father. the late Gen. Samuel Ross,
OF the regular army, served through the
Florida Indian wars, the Mexican war,
and the civil war, with distinction.
Captain Ross is a member OF the Ioyal
