An Excellent Entertainment.

Burns hall was filled to it's ut
most capacity last Saturday even
ing to witness the entertainment
given by the ladies dramatic as
ISOLATION. AS a rule, amateur
plays are not we'll rendered.
Those that take part do not seem
to appreciate the meaning of the
author of the play and as a result
the performances fall fat With
out desiring to be fulsOme ia our
praise of the entertainment given
by the members of the assOcia-
ton, we but echo the consensus
of opinion, when we state that
every character represented in
the comedy'of "The Detective in
Petticoats'' was excellent and in
thorough rapport with the part
to be played.
The smoothness in which the
Entertainment went off was
sufficient evidence that the
young ladies had given vast
8amount of time and study to the
Irrespective characters they rep
Presented. The stage settings
were in most admira BILE taste and
agood Judgment. The costumes
were very appropriate and the
overtures by Beebe's orchestra
could not have been better. The
cast was as follows:
Detective Myrtle McCurdy

HAS JURISDICTION.


Chicago, June Judge Kohlsaa'
Wednesday decided that the fedora
courts have Jurisdiction over the bill
for injunctions brought by the express
companies against the striking team
sters.
The attorneys for the teamsters de-
MED that the federal courts has juris'
diction over such bills. basing theil
contention on the declaration that the
express companies are not engaged In
interstate commerce.
President Shea Of the teamsters
union appeared before the grand jury
Wednesday afternoon and was ques-
toned for two hours. He told the
story Of the working Of the information
al and local teamsters unions. He de-
MED any conspiracy on the part Of the
labor leaders and insisted that much
of the trouble that has taken place
in the city streets had been caused by
the private detectives and other rep
resentatives of the employers associa-
ton for the purpose Of exciting sympa-
thy against the, strikers.
It was announced Wednesday night
that certain of the labor leaders will
Thursday present affidavits to the
grand jury declaring that Attorney
Meyer of the Employers Association
and Chief of Detectives Buckminster
who has acted for the same organiza-
ton are responsible for all the murders
committed in connection with the
strike. They will also endavor to Sc
cure indictments of the officials of the
Employers leaning company for i'm
porting men from other cities under
false pretenses.
The strike Wednesday was, contrary
to general expection very quiet. NO
riots worthy of the name having taken
place in any part Of the city. There
we're few fights, but in none OF them
was anybody seriously injured. The
only increase to the number OF strik-
ers consisted Of the twelve teamsters
employed by the Weaver Coal company
who went out when ordered to make
deliveries to the American Express
company.
All the business houses involved In
the trouble reported Wednesday night
that more wagons had been sent out
than at any time since the commence
ment of the strike and that they were
in a position now to increase their
force Of drivers each day to the full
limit which the police are able to fur
nish protection.

SHEA BEFORE GRAND JURY.
President Of Teamsters' linton
Tells OF Having Been offered
RIO,OOO to Call strike.

Chicago, June 2.-The interest in
the teamsters' strike Thursday CEN
tered In the grand jury investigation.
President Shea has stated that he was
offered $4,000 two years ago IT, order
strike Of teamsters employed by one
business house in order that rival
might be benefited. Albert Young, the
former president of the teamsters said
he was going to tell the grand Jury
the $4,000 story and give the namrs
Of those present when the offer was
made. President Shea intimated that
coal dealers were back Of the strike
of teamsters when an attempt was
made some time ago to induce the
owners Of 'slSyserapers' to use gas In
Ctead Of coal for fuel. He also rs.
serted that the 100000 paid for strike
benefits did not come from the team
sters' organization.
It was stated by President Shea that
the strike would end IL the employers
other than the express companies
would take back their men without
requiring them to collect packages for
the express companies.

counsel. To determine accurately the
legal phases of the postal frauds, the
president designated Mr.. Bonaparte
and Holmes Conrad to investigate the
subject and on their report he tool
decisive action without hesitation.
Eminent as a lawyer and as a pub
licist and consistent advocate OF civil
service reform, Mr.. Bonaparte has moi
been supposed to have more than an
academic interest in the navy. In the
upbuilding Of the navy, however, he
is known to be in perfect accord with
the president and doubtless will carry
into effect the views Of Mr.. Roosevelt
in the strengthening of the naval es-
tablishment.
Mr.. Mortons announcement OF his
expected retirment followed confer
ence with. the president lasting about
an hour. 1t had been stated with
authority that Mr.. Morton would re-
tire July 1, provided the president
would accept his resignation from that
date and Wednesdays statements there
fore ofHicially confirms what has been
known for several weeks. When he
retires he will have rounded out ex-
actly one year Of cabinet life. He
succeeded William. H. Moody Of Mass
acIrlseNs, VINO became attorney gem
eral. Secretary Morton gave out the
following statement:
paul Morton announces that he
will retire from the cabinet on July
1, 1905. He will go to New York to
live and will become associated with
Mr.. Thomas r. Ryan. It IS under
stood that Mr.. Morton will at once take
active charge Of the plans for the con-
Etruction Of the proposed comprehen-
sive system Of underground rapid
transit lines in New York city for
operation in connection with the ex-
listing surface lines"
Mr.. Morton has considered a num-
Der Of fattering offers from railroads,
corporations, and commercial enter
prises since tie certainty Of his with
drawal from the cabinet became
known. Rumors Of his acceptance Of
various positions have been circulated
but all proved untrue up to Wednesday.
when it was announced authoritatively
That he had accepted the management
Of the subway at a salary Of $4,000 a
year and with q contract for long
term Of years.

EASY TO cR1r1c1sE.
Those who staid Safe In 81. Peters,
burg Are Severe Critics Of Those
who Fought.

St. Petersburg, June 2.-According
to the dispatches from Baron Ferzen,
the commander Of the cruiser Izumrud,
the battleships remaining In the fight
were still in squadron formation when
he was cut off, and this increases the
deep resentment felt here at the sur
render of the ships. The Novoe vre-
mya even declaring that the offers
ought to be courtmartialed and shot
for hauling down their flags and turn
ing their ships over to the Japanese.
The paper cites articles of the naval
regulations forbidding commander to
surrender except as a last emergency
after taking measures to destroy his
ship. 1t points out that 1t required
only the opening Of the sea cosks. to
send the ships to the bottom. The
crews would be given good chance for
life, the paper says and cites the ex-
ample of the cruiser Rurick of the
Vladivostok squadron, which after the
fight with Admiral Kamimura in Aug
ust last, went down heroically with
colors flying.
The report from Lieut.. Dournove Of
the torpedo boat destroyer Brayi tell
ing how that boat was disabled on the
first day of the fight and escaped to
Vladivostok through the midst Of
hostile fotailla or destroyers, being
obliged even to burn her woodwork
to reach the harbor, awakens CLEAN
of satisfaction; and though the Izum-
rud failed to reach Vladivostok her
destruction at the hands of her own
crew is regarded with almost equal
pleasure.
The saddest note for st. Petersburg
is struck by the destruction Of the bat
tleship Alexander III, which was man
ned by sailors of the guard and Off
cered exclusively by men prominent in
society and at court. Her crew served
during the winter time as a regiment
of the guard of which the Dowager
Empress was honorary commander.
