LEADERS OF Strike
SEE President
PRESENT A PETITION PROTEST
ING AGAINST SENDING OF
TROOPS TO CHICAGO.
Nations Chief Administers Mild Re-
buke and Declares Unions Must
Obey the Law-Will Support Pre-
servation of Peace.

Chicago, May lion Wednesday
President Roosevelt told labor leaders
who waited upon him to protest
against the use of federal troops in the
teamsters' strike that the union must
obey. the laws just as the corporations
must obey them. He rebuked his call.
ers for casting slight upon the army.
He said no request had been made
upon him for action by the federal
government, but that he would stand
by the mayor and the governor in their
efforts to preserve order.
Situation More Quiet.
Chicago, May 12.-The quietest day
since the inception of the strike was
experienced Thursday There was a
minimum of violence and street dis
turbances, partly due to the heavy rain
storms. The most important move
made by the union leaders, with the
most significant failure, was the at
tempt to have Mayor Dunno take the
policemen off the wagons. President
Dold, of the Federation of Labor head
ed committee of Is that called at the
city hall. This was followed by dele
cation from the Department Store De-
livery Drivers union, bearing a special
protest of the same sort. Mayor Dunno
issued new orders to the police depart
ment to uphold the law He also in
Dictated an unyielding attitude on the
question of the police riding on boy
cotted wagons, and refused to accede
to the strikers demands. Mayor
DUNES position was that it is impos-
sible to protect 1000 wagons with the
policemen on foot and that the ext
gencies of the situation demand that
the police must ride.
Drivers Will Stand Pat.
Chicago, May 15.-Gradual extension
of the transfers strike until practical
ly all of the IS, 900 union drivers in the
city are involved in it was the policy
decided upon Saturday night at the
meeting of the Transfers joint council.
At that meeting the drivers received
the ultimatum of the team owners,
who met Friday night. The employers
told the union men they would have
to make deliveries to concerns with
which they had contracts regardless of
the question of whether the drivers of
these concerns were on strike or not.
To this the teamsters refused to con-
sent. AS soon as team owner orders
his men to make deliveries to concerns
which are boycotted and discharges
men because they refuse to obey orders
his teamsters will be called out:
Another death was added Saturday
to the list of seven homicides at
tributed by the police to violence re-
sulting from the great transfers
strike, when Harry Grady, No. 3713
Emerald avenue, died in the Provident
hospital. He succumbed to a bullet
wound inflicted April 20, when he and
his brother William were called to the
door of their home late at night and
shot down by unknown men.

day. Two men dead and another barely
alive were found in heap of rubbish
piled up against railroad freight cars
near the station Friday morning. They
had been there since last Wednesday
night at 8:15 o'clock, at which time
every clock in town stopped. State
ments that 400 persons were injured
are correct, but most of these suffered
only slight bruises. Forty-fiye persons
are receiving hospital treatment. On
account of lack of accommodations
here, the wounded are being taken to
larger towns.
Fire Completes Havoc.
To add to the general confusion and
distress, after the tornado had passed
fire broke out and burned up all that
remained of the buildings on one OF
the business blocks. So far, it has
not been possible to find out whether
or not any bodies were cremated, but
it is highly possible that such is the
case.
The havoc wrought by the tornado Is
complete. Out of town Of 1000 peo-
pie, not more than score Of houses
are intact, while two-thirds OF the
buildings are totally wrecked. The
storm formed south of Olustee, near
the Texas line, and took northeast
erly course through well-settled Sec
ton. At eight o'clock it was observed
by the people of Snyder, but the usual
funnel-shaped formation was lacking,
although the roar was plainly heard
for some time before the storm broke,
Many were of the opinion that it was

the sky became suddenly dark, and a
terrific downpour of rain began, last
ing for several minutes, when It stop
ped almost as suddenly as it had COM
menced. A few moments after an ON
inous calm followed, and then the tor
nado struck, tearing buildings to
pieces as though they were made of
paper.
A Call for Aid.
+ A relief committee, headed by b. Dow
den, chairman, has been formed and the
following appeal for outside aid has
been issued:
"To the People of the United States:
This place was almost totally obliter-
ated by cyclone on the evening of May
10. The people here are dividing their
all, but have not enough to relieve the
pressing necessity. Neighboring towns
are strenuously supplying us with hos
pital supplies and food. Fully 300 fam
lilies have been ruined by the storm;
1900 people are more or less dependent
on the good will Of the generously in
clined to tide them over the present dis
trees. Money is urgently needed. Prop:
erty loss, including crops, stock, homes
and other property will reach $500, 1000,
with q portion of the stricken district
vet to be heard from. Almost continu-
GUS rains since the cyclone have rem
dered many of the roads almost impassi-
BILE. The stricken people have helped
the less fortunate to the extent of $500
in cash, besides dividing food, provi-
sions and clothing with those who lost
their all. In view of these circum-
stances, we ask assistance from the
American people"

ASKING QUESTIONS.
The Art OF Interrogation Should Re
Devoid of Impertinence.


Devoid of Impertinence.
"Do not ask questions" is the worst
piece of social advice which age can
give to youth. A man who never asks
questions is the dullest fellow in the
world. He had better ask too many
than too few. We can defend ourselves
against curiosity, out no armor ayails
against Indifference. We must resign
ourselves to be bored to DEATH
What is the secret of the art of in,
terrogation? Putting aside quick sym.
pathies, which lie at the root>of every
social art, we believe the most essen
tial quality for those who would excel
in it is directness The art of asking
questions so as to learn, instruct, please
and influence is not the art of beating
about the bush The questions which
offend and silence are the questions
which suggest some Interior motive. 1t
Is a found out scheme which makes
men angry. Anything of the nature
Of a trap Keeps us on our guard. II
we once fall into one we resolve il
shall be the last time. Suspicion kills
confidence Interrogative hints are ut
terly useless. The average man does
not dislike to be questioned. He hates
to be Startled, crossed, interfered with.
reproached. wearied, or betrayed. He,
hates the questions which are not ask
ed with d simple intention.
There are questions which are asked
not because the asker wants to know
but because he intends to tell Others

mans opinion, are really intended to
reflect upon his character Some men

In order to put difficulties in their way
Strings of meaningless questions ire
poured out by those who desire to pre-
tend an interest in some subject which
they neither know nor care anything
about.
We believe the conclusion Of the mat
ter to be this: The art of Interrogation
is a serious branch of the social art
Well asked questions are of the essence
Of agreeable intercourse, but the in
terrogative mood will not justify an
impertinence, an interference. a verbal
