Rumors of Overture.

Chicago, May 3.-A report was current tonight that President Shea of the Teamsters Union had made overtures to the Employers ment of the strike. Shea's proposition 1t is said. was for the employers to reinstate all the union teamsters now on strike with the exception of those who prior to the strike had not been employed on wagons which have been taken over by the Employers Teaming Association. The employers, It Is as- serted. refused to consider the proposi- ton in any manner. declaring that they practically won and they would con tinue the fight until the teamsters organization was broken up It was with this intention that the Employers Association was organized and the members of the association would not lose any ground they had gained In their fight to eliminate the union team sters and their sympathetic strike which the members of the association declared had been held as a club over the heads of the business men of Chica- go When rPe 'ess Questioned tonight about the report that he was anxious for set clement on the terms given above, President Shea denied 1t. but the denial was made in a manner that left the inn pression that such a compromise had been offered by him.
 A meeting of the Employers Asso- citation was held tonight at the Union League Club and plans for calling on Governor Deneen for the State militia was discussed. After the meeting 1t was stated by the committee appoint ed to consider the question that "the members of the Employers Association are unanimously of the opinion that the police cannot deal with the situa- tion and steps will be taken at once in a legal way to get the troops here"
 Alfred S. Austrian, an attorney, who is employed by the Employers Asso- citation, ieft tonight for Springfield to lay the matter before Governor Deneen.

BIGELOK'S INCAPACITY
KNEW NOTHING OF SOUND BUsI-
 NESS MANAGEMENT.
Milwaukee Bankers Are Recalling Evi- dences of the Past and Remem-
 bering stunts Done by De- faulting Banker.

Milwaukee. May 3.-Further indica- tions are daily being recalled by Mill waukee bankers of Frank c. Bige- lows incapacity for sound business management, They are reluctantly confessing that he often indicated his weakness.
 One of the latest proofs of this, which comes to The Journal from a man whom 1t was told by a Milwau- kee banker, is that within the last eight months MT. Bigelow came to him three times with request that he ex- change him checks for $50.000 each. The first two times the banker accom- modated him. The last time he re- fused.
 This man now fgures,' says The Journal informant, that the bank ex- aminer was due at one time or pos sibly twice, during this period, and that Mir. Bigelow needed money to square up certain accounts at the bank. He could not deposit his own checks in the bank for any such purpose very well. but the check of another man might be accepted.
 If he raised s1oo.ooo from one man, how much did he raise altogether? If the banks funds were short several hundred thousand the bank examine er would doubtless find it out. Under the plan of asking for personal checks from other bankers, MT. Bigelow could
 tice~for instance the day aftec the bank examiner arrived. The checks he received from others in the instance cited were returned in comparatively short time, whereupon MT. Bigelow all was ever the wiser as to what had happened"

An prlton. Eye our stage.

London Globe.
 From what we have seen and heard of the American stage, the art Of play writing Is in its infancy in America z MT. Augustus Thomas Is. to our mind the most skillful of American play wrights, and one light comedy Of his. in which a clergyman and q prokes-' sional pugiIist played important parts; reached a very high level; but the rank and file of dramitists in the States have a great deal to learn. One circumstance which greatly impedeH the progress of the drama on the other side of the Atlantic is the want Of. actors who can play ordinary. natter of-fact characters, who have nothing very vigorous to do. and. indeed. httla to do at all except stand still. and look and talk like gentlemen. The Amerl- can actcs excels In the gun" drama. He can wear leather brooches and ham, de a revolver. but in the more subtle passages of life he is out of hiH elex ment. Mir Pinero's Lefty" we heaxs suffered severely from the inability of the actors to realize the characters which they were playing. Americana do we'll in eccentric parts, but they lack repoSe.

Alexander, Vice-President James Hazen Hyde and Vice-President Gage Tarbell, of the Equitable Life Assurance Socie- ty, to appear before him in the Supreme Court on May 11th for the purpose of being examined and making a deposi- tion as to the facts and circumstances under which the so-called amended charter of the Equitable Society was adopted.

BRIBERY ALLEGED.
Sensation in PropositiOn to Lease Phil-
 adeIphia Gas Works.

0uetpmt1 0hB WOEAks
 Philadelphia, May 3.-One of the sem sations of the day in the proposition to release the Philadelphia Gas Works to the United Gas Improvement Com paoy was the reading at a mass meet ing held at the Academy of Music to- night of an affidavit made by Robert Dorman, a carpet manufacturer, that bribery was resort&d to when the United Gas Improvement Company se- cured It's present thirty years lease of the gas works in 1897.
 Mir. Dornan's affidavit was read by William J. Tilden, secretary of to- nights meeting. The affidavit says that through the instrumentality of Israel w. Durham, the Republican lead CT of this city, syndicate known as the Ridgeway syndicate" was formed to bid on the lease fin 1897 in opposition to the United States Gas Im- rrovement Company and that he (Mr. Dornan) and a friend were requested to become members of the syndicate. Mir. Dornan and his friend joined the sym dicate and a bid, better than the United Gas Improvement Company's was made
 MT. Dornan concludes his affidavit by directly charging Mir. Dolan as the rep resentative of the United Gas Improve ment Company, with the corrupt use of a large sum of money and other val uable considerations to induce the Ridgeway syndicate to withdraw its bid for the lease. T hope thereby" he says, "to establish fraud upon which legal proceedings can be based to void the existing lease to the United Gas Improvement Company and restore the property to the city. thus enabling 1t to offer a new lease in open compett- tion to the best bidder"

PARTY sToRMBOUND.
President Roosevelt Is Hedged I'm by
 Rain and Su0w.

Rain and Sn0w.
 Glenwood Springs. Col. May 3.-For three days the Presidential hunting party has been storm bound in the mountains. Rain and snow have fallen continuously and tonight there Is no sign of a break. The roads are muddy and the trails accordingly dangerous for horsemen. The hunters intended to move to the East Divide Creek on Mon- day but as the party will break up Saturday the camp will likely be nov ed to the head of Garfield Creek as soon as horsemen can get through. Mountain streams are raging torrents and most of them cannot be crossed.
 Grizzly bears are the only kind of game that will be hunted from now on. Thus far this king of the Rocky Mountain beasts has eluded the Presi- dent, who is anxious to get one. Ten brown bears have fallen to the party, one of good size.
 President Roosevelt is expected here Saturday night instead of Sunday morning. If camp Is located on Garfield Creek the party will ride to Glenwood Springs. crossing the Grand River at Soutk Canon. The Presidential special will leave Glenwood Springs at a. m.. on Monday morning and reach Denver at D. m., that day. This Is more than an hour faster than the best passenger schedule. The train will be made up of the private car, Rocket, a Union Pacific Railroad library car and a baggage car. A pilot carrying officials of the Denver Rio Grande Railroad and news paper men will be run ahead of the special as far as Denver.
