RELATES THE EVENTS THROUGH
WHICH A BIRD IN THE HAND BE-
CAME TWO IN THE BUSH.
Week after week followed with
dreams Of home, of green fields and
trees and brooks, in~terssersed with
glimpses of sad, patient, Sympathetic
faces of nuns and the rustllng of their
holy garments, which seemed like the
sound Of angels wings, and Renee
awakened to a realization that the
former were but dreams and the rest
full assurance that the latter we're al
ways near to comfort and protect her.
Some spoke of ship fever contracted
on the voyage during which two men,
bers of the crew bad died, notwith-
standing the fact that she had been
ashore a full month before falling III
Others shook their heads and whi@
pered something about a strange dis.
ease, lately found among the Indians
that seized upon the mind as well az
the body. All agreed that it would
need every effort to strengthen the
weakened frame and renew the brain
that seemed to rally most tardily. In
reality 1t was the double blow of the
news of her lovers unfaithfulness, and
the sight Of the man she feared AMI
whom she believed to be dead. coming
as 1t did after the fatigue of her long
voyage and close confinement Of her
stuffy cabin, that proved too great a
shock to tho crvou system of the
young girl.

general.
While the action of the company
in refusing to confer with union
with view to an amicable settle
ment of the strike is a disappoint-
ment to those who had expected a
different line Of action on it's part,
the strikers and their sympathizers
believe that they will be able to
convince the company that their
action was taken in haste and that
it is to their interest to not only
recognize the union but to settle
hte strike as well.
The reason that the company has
not brought the men working at
Post Falls to this city to take the
places of the men on strike is ex-
planned by the fact that the men
are all members of the union,
which is one of the best organized
crafts in the country The state
ment OF the company to the effect
NAi"C INV AiCH at L OSL ais would
come to Spokane can be seen to
have been nothing but an idle
statement made for effect.
The company is tied up today
Just as tight as at any time since
the strike was inaugurated, and
there is no prospect of a better
ment OF the situation as far as the
company is concerned; in fact,
each day adds to the discontinue.
as the amount of work that is pill
ing up promises to seriously inter
fere with the proper working Of
their big plants.
When questioned today as to
where the company could secure
men to take the places of the strik-
ers, business agent Allen of the
| union said that if he wanted to
secure nonunion men himself he
would not know where to look for
them, so thoroughly has been the
organizing Of the men throughout
the country.

COMPANY REFUSES TO
TREAT WITH THE UNION

All negotiations for a settlement
of the differences existing between
the Washington Water Power com
pany and the electrical workers
union have been called off.
The Washington Water Power
company. through its general man
ager, NJ. A. Huntington. positively
refused TO talk to the committee
from the various labor organiza-
lions which waited upon him yes
terday with a view TO a settlement
of the present trouble.
Mr. Huntington stated that he
would treat with his former en-
ployes as individuals tut that he
nor the company which he repre-
scented would positively refuse to
recognize the union or confer with
any committee from any labor or
ganization which represented the
union.
In view of the fact that the cleo
trical workers have agreed to leave
all questions in dispute to board
of arbitration, the action of the
company can only be explained by
its utilization with the organization
known as the Manufacturers AS
ISOLATION and a bitter antagonism
on the part Of the stockholders Of

NEW HAVEN SUFFERERS

her friends in San Francisco. Fred r.

and their house was SO badly damaged

particulars as follows: They took
their bed and bedding and canped in

three nights. Fred r. Mother was wish

ladies and mothers with babes in arms
They took also Fred R., mother and

two baskets strapped on his back.
Some Of the way they had to have Dian

tentative amendments were either pre-
pared by the attorney general at the
reouest of senators or submitted to me
by senators. AS many Of those amend
ments Including among others the
substance of the so-called Long, Over
man, Bacon and Spooner amendments)
1 stated that / should be entirely salts
fed 10 have them in the bill; as to
others, I suggested notifications which
would make them satisfactory; as to
none did I ever say, either to Mr.
Chandler or to any one else, that
should insist upon having them in the
bill as a condition Of my approving it.
On the contrary, l always was most
careful to state that was not trying
to dictate an yparticular programme
of action In no case, either in the
case of Mr. Chandler or in the case of
any one else, was there the slightest
opportunity for any honest misconcep-
ton of my attitude or any belief that
1 had pledged myself specifically to one
and only one amendment or set of
amendments, or that I would not be
satisfied with any amendment which
preserved the essential feature of the
Hepburn bill as it came from the house.
You will doubtless recall that in the
course of the several vigits that you
personally made me we discussed a
number of these proposed amendments
trying to find out for which one there
could be obtained a sufficient body to
assent to secure it's passage and the
passage of the rate bill.
ITO almost any amendment proposed
by any one I found that there were
other excellent men who objected, or
who at least wished to change it, and I
finally became convinced that 1t was
impossible for senators with advantage
to use me as the intermediary in COM
ing to an agreement with their col
leagues, especially when they only COM
municated with me through another
intermediary, and earnest suggest to
all to whom 1 spoke that they should
communicate with you, whose purposes
and mine were identical. About this
time 1 was informed BY various demo-
cratic senators that they could not
come to an agreement upon any amend
ment and that the best chance for sue
cess lay in passing the Hepburn bill
substantially unchanged. I was in
formed and believed that this was
Senator Bailey's view; and number
of the republican senators who favored
the bill expressed the same opinion.
Shortly after this you, in company
with Senator Cullom, called upon me
with the amendment which Is now COM
monty known as the Allison amend
ment. / told you that while I should
prefer the Long and Overman amend
ments, yet that your amendment was
entirely satisfactory. Your amend
ment does not in the slightest degree
weaken or injure the Hepburn bill. II
| merely expresses what the friends o.
the bill have always asserted was i'm
piled by the terms Of the bill, I may
| add, that my own opinion that your
! amendment in no way cranged wheth.
or by diminishing or enlarging. the
scope of the court review as provided
in the original Hepburn bill, Is also thu
opinion Of the attorney general, or Mr.
Root or Of Mr.. Taft, Their judgmen
