CAPT. ROBSON TO WED
ENGAGEMENT TO MISS HULL IS
 ANNOUNCED.
AIabama's ~EEerO of the Merrimac' Will Lead Young Lady of Tuxedo Park, N. Y., to the Altar
 of Hymen.

New York. May 6.--(special.)- )-Mr. and Mrs. George H. Hull, of Tuxedo Park. N r.. have announced the en- gagement of their daughter. Grizolda Houston Hull. to Captain Richmond Pearson Hobson.
 On account of the recent death of Captain Hobson's father, the wedding, which has been set for May 25th, will be very quietly celebrated. without formal snvtsatf0us or Announcements. at the hom of tha bride.a parents in Tuxedo. only relatives aud a few in- timate fris Detn@ present
 This h3ssrylf te will represent an in- terestltik aiiSanee, fct enly from the fact that 1t unites distinguished names of the North with others of the South. but by uniting as 1t does the historic New England families of Hulls. Strongs, Farnhams and Doolittles. with those of the Salteustals and Brewsters from whom Captain Hobson is des- cended through his mother Sarah Groom Pearson. daughter of Chief Carolina
 Not only does this union affiliate families prominent contemporaneously in New England history, but the South ern ancestors on both sides are per- sonally associated in Southern history where Captain Hobson's forefathers, Hobsons, Pearsons, Moreheads, Whites and Williams. joined in helping to lay the foundation of North Carolina, Ten nessee and Alabama, with the Folks, Houstons, Longs, Jones, Eatons from whom Miss Hull is descended through her mother, Lucia Houston, daughter of Judge Russel Houston of Kentucky.
 It will be particularly interesting to the people of Alabama to know that Miss Hull is a great niece of Governor Houston, universally recognized as AIabamas great Governor.
 It is an interesting coincidence that Governor Houston appointed Captain Hobson's father. Judge James H. Hob son, then a young lawyer, to fill a vacancy on the bench of Alabama.
 The young couple will make their home at the old Hobson homestead, Magnolia Grove" at Greensboro.

rsTHMIAN COMMISSION.
Meeting of Executive Committee Held
 fin Washington.

Meeting of Executive Committee Held
 fin Washington.
 Washington. May 6.-Chairman Shonts having returned to Washington, a meeting of the executive committee of the Isthmian canal commission was held today. the greater portion of the time being spent in considering ques- tions relating to the civil service. Op- en expressions of discomfort and grumbling on the part of the employees in the canal zone and frequent resig- nations have impressed the commission with the belief that something must be done to make the zone more attrac- tive for young Americans. Therefore, todays meeting was devoted to con- sideration of many of these complaints and the planning of changes in the existing order of things.
 The most important decision was that there should be encouragement of salaries, the particular feature of which. will be liberal allowances in the lower grades. Provision will be made for leaves of absence on a more gen erous scale than In the past and the social life of the American colony will be developed. One decision which is calculated to make the Isthmian ser vice more attractive to young men ts that when employees have done credit table work on the Isthmus for a reasonable time they must be re-em- ployed in the civil service in this coun- try by transfer.

TRUCK GROWERS, LOSS.
Railroad Blockade at Chadburn, N. C.,
 Disastrous.

Charlotte, N. C. May 6.-A special from Chadburn. N. c, says:
 There has never been anything in the history of this State that compares with the railroad blockade here. More than S2OO,00O worth of berries have routed at the depot.
 The railroads are hauling carload after carload of fine but spoiled ber ries to the river and dumping them as so much garbage. The loss to the truck growers of this section will be at least $6OOOOO These figures seem absurd but are absolutely reliable. The Fruit Growers Express Company has failed to supply the refrigeration cars. The farmers are picking their berries as rapidly as they can and turning them over to the station agent here. but the situation Is growing worse. The express company is held respon- sibIe, and claims for S300,00O damages have been filed. Many Northern com mission merchants are here ready and eager to pay from $2 to S3 a crate for the berries if they could ship them. The situation is unique and interest ing Thousands of crates of the pret- tiest fruit are on the yard, and the rot ting berries smell from one end of the town to the other. Cars loaded with the dscaying fruit give forth juice and

Rus.Ian Ronts Prexing.

Tokio, May 6.-(4 a. m.)-Four Rus- sian torpedo boat destroyers from Via divostok appeared westward of Hok- kaido off Sutsu yesterday.
 They seized and burned a small sail ing vessel and imprisoned the captain and disappeared to the northwest. They were evidently returning to Vla- divostok There is a possibility that they have destroyed other small craft, although no reports to that effect nave been received.
 The object of their visit is not clear. It is thought that probably they hoped to torpedo the Japanese patrol at night and 1t Is also suggested that the Vladi- vostok vessels plan a diversion to as- sist the fleet of Admiral Rojestvensky.

 (Signed) Edward F. Dunne,
 Mayor of Chicago"
 Dunne Is Confident.
 The Mayor tonight expressed him self as confident tha tthe serfou part of the strike was over and that there would be no more disturbances in the streets.
 Sheriff Barrett expressed views simi- lar to those of the Mayor. He believed that with the deputies and the police, the situation could be controlled. Dur ing the day the sheriff swore in as deputies several hundred of the em- ployes of the stores against whicn strikes have been made. One hundred and fifty deputies were sworn from among the employees of the seven ex- press companies.
 The strike was extended somewhat during the day by walkout of the employees of several wholesale grocery houses that so far have not been con- nected in the trouble. Forty-four drivers were called out in three estab- lishments.
 Tug men also Joined the ranks of the strikers, although no formal order was issued by the union to which they bs- long. The strike began when the men of the steamer Grace, owned by the O. B. Green O., refused to make deliver les of coal or other merchandise to the Peabody Coal Co. or the J. V. Farweil Go The officers of the tugmcn's union were informed of the action taken by the crew of the Grace and they notihed the concerns which employ their men that no more coal would be hauled for firms where a strike existed.
 No action was taken by the tugmen' 8 union on the question as to whether its members will be permitted to work on boats which haul merchandise to boy cotted houees. The order as yet only affects the delivery of coal to and from these concerns.
 Nineteen hundred workmen employed in constructing new factory town for Sears, Roebuck & Company. re- turned to work today after being on strike for over twenty-four hours. The origin of the strike was demand for increased wages pressed by few men, but discountenanced by officers of the workmen's union.

Tokio, Japan. May 6.-(Noon .)-Al- though none has been sighted, it is believed the larger vessels of the Vlad- ivostok squadron accompanied the tor pedo boats which appeared west of Hokkaido yesterday. It is doubted that the torpedo boats would venture across unless escorted In the heavy sea which was running when they burned the sailing vessel
 All the crew of this vessel except the captain, who was captured, succeeded in landing, but a steamer dispatched to the rescue of the burning derelict was forced to return on account of the storm. The Russians poured kerosene on the deck of the sailing vessel and withdrew after having ignited the sur face of the oil. The torpedo boats have not been reported today.

Rws.Ian outIm,n.


 St. Petersburg, May 7.-Admiral Me- bogatoff's junction with Vice Admiral Rojestvensky is now considered by the admiralty as practically assured, and hope for a successful issue in the ap- preaching struggle for mastery of the sea is greatly encouraged thereby.
 If Vice Admiral Kamimura fails to prevent a juncture of the Russian fleets. as the admiralty here believes he has, the impression Is strong that Vice Admiral Togo will not dare risk an open battle against the united di- visions of Rojestvensky and Neboka- toff, but will content himself with tor pedo attacks and possibly long range action. being prepared to draw ofr in the event that he Is unable to make an impression. If the fleet reached Vlad- ivostok intact naval officers here claim that victory is won. Although there Is little more than 100000 tons of coal at yladivostok, with the reinforcement of the fleet by the Gromboi, Rossir and Bogotir and the torpedo boats and sub- marines now in the harbor there, they claim that Rojestyensky could drive Togo off the sea and leave Field Mar shars Oyama's army stranded in Man. churia.
 Simultaneously with the increasing tension over the approach of a sea battle, comes news that Field Marshal Oyama is pressing the Russian right along the Liao River north of Fako- man, as if he is beginning a general engagement.
