French AdUices RefUted-A Crisis
Thought Near.

Toxic. May 1O.-The government maintains
reserve but the Indo-Chinese situation seems to
be rapidly approaching a crisis. Following tbs
repeated assurances Of the French Foreign Min
lister, NJ. Delcasse. to DR.. Motono. the Japanese
Minister at Paris, that the vessels of the Rus
sian second Pacific squadron were outside ter
ritoriaI waters, the Navy Department here has
received trustworthy information that a part
of the squadron was inside Honkoha Bay the
morning of May 6. and It is generally believed
that Nebogatoff's division will use French
waters to coal. take on board other supplies and
clean bottoms.
1t is difficult to predict future events. The
Japanese government has been urged TO accept
Frances assurances that the Russian warships
have remained outside territorial waters and TO
act accordingly. The agitation against France
commercially is growing and despite govern
rnent repression a motion to boycott French
goods may reach a vote in the Chamber OF

BRUTALITY OF TROOPS.
Warsa50's Governor Refuses a Public
Investigation.

Warsaw, May 10.-A group Of factory owners
and other residents Of Warsaw presented a me
mortal to Governor General Maximovitch to-
day accusing the troops of barbarity and bru-
tality May l. and demanding impartial
investigation, in which representatives of the
people should share They said that the order
to fire on the crowd in Jerusaem-st was given
without exhausting other means for dispersal
giving the prescribed preliminary signals.
and when the crowd dispersed after the voley
the troops brutally harried those remaining in
the streets well those who sought refuge
in houses. hunting out, shooting and beating
women and children we'll as men They as
serted that a girl. thirteen years old. hiding
in a shed, was sabred by a policeman. and that
a boy who ran into a bedroom and crawled I'M
der the bed for shelter was deliberately shot and
mortaIly wounded
The petitioners having recounted number
Of similar instances the Governor General re-
piled that the use Of arms was made necessary
by the threatening bearing Of the crowd from
which the first shot was fired, making the re-
turn volley necessary. In such a conflict, he
added. sacrifices OF life were unavoidable. The
Governor General regretted the occurrence, but
said the crowd amply warned by the dec
Iaration that order would be maintained at any
cost. He admitted that the troops might on
some occasions have displayed unnecessary
harshness. but argued that the presence of an
officer with every detachment was not always
possible He denied the request for public in
vesugation but invited the petitioners to report
important violations of the law and present the
facts regarding cruelty in individual cases,
which he would be ready and willing inves-
tgate.

ARBITRATION OFFER REFUSED.

You viii therefore readily see that we have
the written right TO demand arbitration de-
mand that has been repeatedly spurned by the
employers in the presence Of Mayor Dunno Of
Chicago.
And why spurned?
Because they openly boast that they can spurn
It. and that the troops under your command win
shoot down him who dares to openly protest
against their action They hatter themselves
that the federal army is their ready tool to act
upon their suggestion-right or wrong-and they
therefore refuse TO have any inquiry made 10
whether they are right or wrong.
They can now say There is nothing TO arbi
trate'; but If a board should find there
something to arbitrate, public sympathy might
be too strong for them. and they might not be
able to crush out unionism once and for all" as
they openly declare they intend TO 90.
But can they do It? Is the army all that these
men think it is? Is it not fact after all, that
the power OF the army even rests to great ex-
tent upon the support of the people? What
would d few soldiers be against nation? With
out intending to be discourteous or suggesting
threat, we desire to call attention TO clear and
true statement Of this fact by General Benjamin
L. Butler, Of Massachusetts. in his celebrated
Lowell:
If the worhng1nen can be deprived of their
freedom and their rights by threats Of starvation
or themselves and their wives and children,
when they act according to the laws and their
own Judgments, then they had better be slaves
indeed, having kind masters, instead of being
free men who are only at liberty to do what
their IA -kmasters impose upon them, or starve.
And this question must be settled here and now.
L
know many Of the men who have been in charge.
They have made a mistake IN appeal to force.
When that weapon is tried they are weak and
you are strong. They have their mills and ma
chinery. their bricks and their mortar, and that
is the extent Of their power. You are stronger
than they. You have your right arms and your
torches, and by them will blot out this &C
cursed outrage.
"As God lives and live, by the living Jehovah
# one man is driven from his employment by
these men, viii lead you to make Lowell what
1t was twenty-five years ago-a sheep pasture
and fishing place; and I will commence by ap-
plying the torch to my own house. Let them
come on AS we are not the aggressors we seek
not this awful contest

CAUSE OF ONE THAT OF ALL.

The revolutionists well understood that a law
directed at Massachusetts, was in effect q law
against South Carolina. Franklin's saying that
eft we don't hang together will hang sep

Shall the farEightedness that was praised in
Massachusetts, be condemned IN Chicago? Or
shall that principle Of action that was praised
yesterday be condemned to-day? The thou

and deal with il as SUCH and make Of the
high trait Of manhood of which II is the
preston than to commit folly OF trying 10 crush
It. as George III tried to crush out the spirit Of
unity and independence Of the colonies.
Let as not awake to this fact just after It IS
forever too late.
We therefore trust that you will allow pres
entation Of the facts OF the case to you before
you permit any abuse of federal power by
breakers of the land-the constant suppltants for
governmental privilege. All that asking
IS that our voice be heard.
