TROUBLE AMONG TRANSFERS
Resort to Personalities in Debate
over Sending Aid to Chicago
Strikers.

PHILADELPHIA. Aug. lO.-An unex-
pected demonstration oeopcred late today
during the session OF the convention of The
International Brotherhood Of Teamsters. 1t
was caused by a telegram from the de-
partment store drivers of Chicago, asking
for financial assistance. The telegram,
signed by E. ]. Ryan, president of that
branch of the brotherhood, was as follows:
Two hundred men out and no Sunday
dinner in sight"
The delegates Immediately voted to send
$1,000 for the relief of the strikers. At once
delegates representing various other Chi
cago locals rose and demanded assistance.
There were several heated arguments and
one delegate accused the executive commit
tee of refusing to help the strikers. In
their eagerness to be heard the delegates re-
sorted to personalities, and President Shea
with difficulty restored order. 1t was
finally voted to send $500 additional to
Chicago, the money to be distributed among
the truck drivers, the coal wagon drivers,
the lumber wagon drivers and the piano
wagon drivers.
Michael f. Casey of San Francisco, third
vice president and member of the execu-
tive committee in an address said he had
no objection to sending the money If the
men needed it, but that he did not want
the conventions action TO be regarded as
an endorsement of the Chicago strike.
About 1900 men will be benefited by the ap-
proprations.
The report of the executive committee
real today criticized President Shea's con-
duct of the Chicago strike The report
stated also that the committee had decided
that Chicago local unions participating in
strikes after June p last were doing SO
without the sanction OF the committee.

The ship America, whic out the ex-

the winter Of 1904 and with large
part Of its coal and provisions.
NEW YORK. Aug. 1O.-A cablegram was
received at the office Of the Ziegler estate
confirming the Associated Press dispatch
from Honnlngsvaag and stating that three
attempts northward on the part of the ex-
pedition were made without success. The

carried out
The thirty-seven members os tne OK
pedtion. who returned to safety are all in
good health despite their deprivations and
prolonged Imprisonment in the Arctic, the
expedition having been severed from all
communication with the outside world since
July, 1903.
Anthony Fiala Of Brooklyn, n. Y. the
leader of the expedition, in a brief state
ment says
The rescue was most timely. BY my order
the America wintered in Nepitz bay, where
early In the winter OF 1854, the ship was
crushed IN the ice and became a total loss,
together with big quantities OF coal and
provisions
Supplies Of stores left at Franz Josef land
by various relief parties saved us very
serious pTivatiOns.
Three attempts to reach high latitude
failed The scientific work however as
planned was successfully carried out by
William J. Peters of the United States
geological survey.
Our rescue was due to the splendid efforts
of William S. Champ secretary Of the late
William Ziegler) commanding the relief eN-
petition, who, owing to the terr BILE weather,
failed to reach us last year, and to the
untirlng zeal of Captain hjeidsen and mis-
Norwegian officers and crew. who for six
weeks persistently forced their way through
solid foes Of ice and finally reached us.
An abundance of stores had been left on
the Franz Josef archipelago by the eX-
pedition commanded by the Duke of Abruzz
and the relief expedition, so that we did not
suffer serious difficulties on that score.

order of Chief Gerald tn Mobile.
 By request of Chief of Police A. $. Gerald, Robert William McCollum alias William McCollum alias Robert Will Hams. q street car conductor of this city was arrested in Mobile yesterday afternoon on charge of bigamy.
 When he stepped from a Louisville and Nashville train in company with Ada Belle Moore. woman of Mont gomery, living at the corner of High land Avenue and Smythe Street, he was immediately seized by Gulf City officers. The Moore woman was held on a charge of suspicion.
 Mrs. Robert Williams of 12 Martha Street, West End, swore out the war rant against McCollum a o'clock yes terday morning before Justice Taylor of West End. She says that she is the legitimate wife of McCollum and that they were married in Rome, Ga, nine months ago.
 The police became suspicious Monday when a marriage license was issued to McCollum by the Probate Judge. At Ii o'clock Monday night Sergeant Miles Smith was informed that McCollum and the Moore woman had married and had boarded a train for Mobile. It was intimated to him that McCollum had wife in this city and he immediately tclephoned Mrs. Robert Williams at her home a few minutes before o'clock Mrs Williams stated positively that the man was her husband and expressed willingness to enter prosecution. Two patrolmen were sent out to her home and she was escorted to the office of Justice Taylor where the warrant was sworn out. Sergeant Smith was in formed at once that the warrant had been issued and he communicated by long distance telephone with Lieutenant Davis of the Mobile police force advis- ing him to instruct his men to be on watch for the couple and arrest them.
 The marriage license from the probate office was issued in the name of Robert William McCollum. When ar rested the prisoner gave his name as William McCollum and during his stay iu Montgomery he has gone under the name of Robert Williams. He is said to be about 37 years old.
 Deputy Sheriff $. S. Belser will leave this morning to bring his prisoners back to Montgomery. They will be taken to the county jail as the case Is felony under the law.
 At police headquarters it was stated last night that McCollum may also be wanted by the United States Govern ment on a charge of desertion from the army.

NO QUICK TOUCH WORK
PICkPOcKETS FAILED TO MATE
 RIALIZE IN MONTGOMERY.
Publicity Given by Police Captain Tay- Tor in Reference to Expected
 Advent of Light.Flngered
 Gentry Prevents Theft.


 The warning sent out by Captain W H. Taylor of the Montgomery polio force, directing citisens to be on tn l'watch for pickpockets, had the desire' effect yesterday. Not a single case o pickpocketing had been reported t the police department at late hou last night and the chances were tha there was not a person in Montgomer! who had suffered at the hands O thieves.
 It is believed that the supposed gans | of pickpockets who did so much worl in Atlanta and Mobile during tht Presidents visit, passed by Montgom' cry without making any attempt te perform any thefts here. The reason assigned for this is the publicity given out regarding the pickpockets: The streets of the city were throngeo with thousands of people yesterday from the depot to the Capitol but eaen and every member of the police force was last night proud of the fact that the police docket was extremely hgnt: At o'clock only thirteen cases had
 been docketed for the entire day, ana all of the prisoners arrested were
 charged either with suspicion. disor-
 derly conduct, drunk, fighting or as-
 sault and battery.
 The police force of the city handled
 the ldTkc CfOWob oyStoh1sASohAy
 had the line of march cleared to and
 from the Capitol. All members of the day and night forces, detectives and plainclothes men were in service. At II o'clock yesterday morning. an hour before the arrival of the President, ropes were stretched at the street cor ners intersecting the line of march or the presidential party in the down. down district, to prevent vehicles rom IA vehicles that happened to be inside the lines were allowed to get out, but no more were allowed to come within the prescribed territory until the Pres ident had departed from the city. A few minutes before 12 o'clock orders were sent out by the police department for all street cars to stop running be- tween the hours of 12 noon and D. m.
 Captain Taylor was kept busy rounds in his buggy. He first visited the union station, where he found ev- erything in the proper shape. squad of four patrolmen. under the command of Sergeant Miles Smith, and two de- tectives were stationed at this place The program given out on the day be- fore was slightly changed as this squad did not get into carriages and go swiftly to the Capitol to enforce the SIdlc ffDuSG SQudu SdPtdIH thought it more advisable to keep this squad at the station to await the re- turn of the presidential party. The largest squad was that at the Capitol. Patrolmen were stationed all along the line of march. Miles Smith and Offf- cers Curbow and Jordan, who were at the depot, accompanied the procession to the Capitol, and, after the speaking began, they returned to the station.
 Police Chief A. Gerald spent the day
 fin his office and gave orders to his
 men. When seen last night he was
 gratified over the results of the day.
