President Talks Live Stock.

Washington. May 2S.-For the pur-
pose OF enlisting the sympathies OF
President Roosevelt in a larger e.port
market Tor merican meats, f. j. Hag-
e1Darth oil Denver. president of the
National Live Stock Association, called
at the White House yesterday. So
great was the Presidents interest that
he has promised to deal with the sub
ject in his next annual message to
Congress, and will take up other mat
tiers of vital Importance to live stock
men
Nothing can compensate for the
loss of market, except to get that
market back" said Mr.. Hagenbarth to
the President. I'VE have lost more
than S100.000,000 annually for the last
three or four years in export market
for meats alone through commercial
misunderstanding that have resulted
in tariff retaliation against meat from
this country. Germanys discrimina-
ton has been the most severe, al
though the loss of the French market
has cost live stock interests $40. O0O,-
600 annually.
The President encouraged Mr.. Hag-
enbarth to continue his explanation.
and then asked him what he proposed
as a solution.
Reciprocity preferably, and il we
can't get that, retaliation" replied Mr.
Hagenbarth. The President agreed as
to the remedy. although he thought
that reciprocity and retaliation could
both be adopted by the United States
"a reciprocal arrangement with coun-
tries that were disposed to be friendly
commercially, and saving the retalia-
tory methods for countries that were
inclined to treat the United States
with unfairness. He agreed with Mr..
Hagenbarth that the subject was one
that should go before Congress and
the people, aid asked the president of
the live stock association to present a
brief that would inform him of the
associations position. Mr.. Hagen
barth promised to put the brief in the
Presidents hands by July list.

Chicago Strike Continues.

Chicago, May 2S.-Nothing devel-
oped to-day tina. would indicate an i'm
mediate settlement of the teamsters'
strike, which has been in progress
nearly two months. That the labor I'M
ions are of the belief that the fight
will be a long one was demonstrated
at the meeting OF the Chicago Fedora
ton of Labor to-day when arrange
ments were made for holding strike
demonstration on July 4.
According to the present plans it is
the intention TO hold a monster parade
of the strikers and the affiliated unions
unless the controversy has been ended
before that date At the meeting to-
day each union affiliated with the CEN
trail body was represented by three
delegates at the request of President
Dold.
The strike situation was discussed
in all its details and the sentiment of
the meeting was that the transfers
should continue the fight until the
seven express companies should offer
some sort Of a compromise. The Off
Gals of the express companies are still
obdurate in their declaration that no
concessions need be looked for from
their side, so the matter of settlement
through this channel seems as remote
as ever.
With over 1000 policemen and depu-
ties of the sheriff detailed on strike
tuty. the employers declare that dur
ing the present week they will be able
to demonstrate to the strikers that any
further continuation OF the fight Will
be suicidal to the teamsters' union.

Anxiety in Russia.

St Petersburg, May %, 2:15 a. M
In this momentous hour the emperor.
the admiralty and the Russian public
are waiting breathlessly for the Japa-
nese to furnish authentic news of the
fate of Vice Admiral Rojestvensky and
his fleet. in which the hopes of the
Russians are conferred. The official
disposition is to construe Tokio's ST
lence favorably, but at the same time
the strategic reason for such silence is
recognized.
The public after the premature jubi-
lation of Saturday night, is inclined to
reverse its attitude and to become pes
simistic.
The report sent to Washington by
the American consul at Nagasali of
the sinking of five Russian warships,
Including battleship and repair ship,
was accepted as the most definite and
the most authentic piece of news re-
ceived up to midnight, and undoubtedly
produced bad impression. The fear
was expressed that the battleship sunk
Wright have been Rojestvensky's flag
ship, the Kniaz Soavaroff, on which
the Japanese undoubtedly would con-
centrate their fire.
The sinking of the repair ship KAN
chatka, which was filled with the most
modern machinery, might, it was
thought, prove later to be more Sc
we're loss than that of a warship, but
a. the admiralty where crowds congre-
gated Sunday afternoon and evening,
the opinion was expressed that if Ro-
feSyensky had cleared the gateway to
the sea of Japan with no greater loss
than that reported by the American
consul, the passage had not been
dearly purchased, and especially If
later reports should prove that the
Japanese losse were proportionate.
Probably no one In Russia displayed
such intense anxiety as the Emperor.
Grand Duke Alexis, high admiral; Ad-
miral Avellan. head Of the Russian ad-
mtralty department, and Admiral Wir-
enus, chief of the general staff Of the
navy, to Tsarskoe-Selo, and remained
closeted with them up to late hour
last night, impatiently awaiting infor
nation, and porting over charts.
The only news received by his ma
Jesty from Russian sources were dis
patches from Russian agents and con-
suls at Chinese ports, which contained
nothing but current rumors. The only
time the Emperor left the members of
the cabinet was to attend services in
the chapel in the Alexander palace,
when the chaplain prayed for Rojest-
<yensky's success.
when the Washington dispatch con-
tanning the information sent by the
consul at Nagasaki arrived

Sight Throuph Brick Walls.


DR.. Paul Sollier, director of the San
atorium for Nervous Diseases at Bou-
logne-sur-Seine, tells 4 remarkable
story of sight through brick walls and
around corners which he is studying in
n of his patients. The man, whose
V trouble began as the result of
falling from a train, is a good hypnotic
subject, and is being treated by sug-
g%estion. In the course Of treatment
DR.. Sollier accidentally discovered that
when %hypnotized the man could see
him when his back was turned. In Or
der to test this remarkable 'eyeless
sight the doctor made the following
experiment: Having as before
plunged the man into a state Of deep
hypnosis, in the course Of cerebral
awakening, I went into q closet separ-
ated from the laboratory by a hall
staircase over sixteen feet wide, q wall
fifteen and one-half inches thick, and
preceded by a small vestibule having
access to a gallery shut off by a glass
door. When inside the closet I made
a movement with my hand as if to
draw him toward me, and Immediately.
he rushed to the door of the laboratory.
The noise he made because he was not
allowed to 60 out at once apprised me
Of the success Of the experiment.

Something to Think About.

How to live comfortably with ones
neighbor-that is the problem; to avoid
the knocks and frictions which draw
lines to mems faces and toe often con-
tract their souls. 1t is paradoXical, but
true, that the larger the soul becomes
the more room it creates for itself
a margin Of quietness in which it re-
mains untouched by petty jealousies
and hurts. By the practice of charity
and u%nselfshness a life builds for it.;
self more stately mansions wherein
it may dwell in peace.
A song in ones heart, a smile upon
ones lips, CHEEKY, a wholesome message,
Of good will on ones tongue are won
derful helps to all kinds of people.
There are so many burdens of borrow
and care and poverty and sin; so many
doubling, discouraged, tempted hearts.
To comfort and to make strong. to
lift up and to bless-are these not mis-
sions worth while? Try it, friend, and
prove how truly your wv heart and
mind are cheered and made brave by
your very endeavor to carry sunshine
into dark niaces.
