The Chelsea improvements so far
include seven piers, the largest in the
North river, and cost many millions
The great steamship companies have
bid for the piers, but the prices fixed
as the minimum by the last city ad-
ministration have kept others out
The matter will now receive the ut
most attention as II is a fact that has
come home to the city administration
that eXtortionate charges for wharf

quest vote on the question of the
union Of the two parties. 1t had been
hoped that the conservative wing If

FOR SHONTS
GOES AFTER HIM ON
C00LIE LABOR QUESTION
Labor Leader DenounceS Can
al Chairman and Says He
Is Trying to Give Double
Cross to Organized Labor,

Washington, Aug. 13.-President
Gompers of the American Fedora
tfon of Labor, in an authorized state
ment today takes issue with Chair
han Shonts of the Isthmian canal
commission on some of the latter's
statements on the experiment of coolie
labor in constructing the Panama
Canal. Mr.. Gompers characterizes as
an absurdity the contention of Chair
man Shonts that the law with respect
to the exclusion of Chinese is only
applicable to the territory at the time
subject to the authority of the United
States and that the canal was ac-
quired subsequent to that date.
There is no such provision, says Mr..
Gompers, in the law referred to and
he cites the various publications of
law in this connection. Mr.. Gompers
declares that neither he nor James
O'Copnell, president of the Interna-
tional Association of Machinists, who
visited Mr.. Shonts, was able to per-
suade him from his position on the
eight-hour question, and they devoted
little attention to the subject of Chi
nese coolies, because, he says, Mr..
Shonts emphatically declared it was
not his intention to employ them.
The charge is specifically made by
Mr.. Gompers that Chairman Shonts
had sufficient influence with the
congress hostile to labor to secure an
nullment of not only the eight-hour
law, but the eight-hour principle in
the construction of the Panama can
al" The future" he says, will de-
termine the judgment of the people OF
our country upon that subject"

1000 REWARD FOR
CAPTURE OF STENSLAND

Chicago, Aug. 13.-The banks of
the Chicago Clearing House associa-
tion have offered a reward of $4,000
for the apprehension of Paul o. STEMS
land, fugitive president of the Amerl-
can Avenue State bank. So anxious
are the bankers to capture the accus-
ed official that a conference was held
this afternoon to decide upon some
action to asst the police authorities
in their search for Stensland and the
passage of resolution to pay this re-
ward was. the result.
The failed bank has two receivers
tonight. Judge Gibbons in the circuit
court this afternoon appointed the
Chicago Title and Trust company as
receiver, the appointment being made
on petition of one of the creditors of
the institution. Following the ap-
pointment of the trust company a do
mand was made upon Judge FetZer,
who was appointed receiver of the
bank by Judge Brentano In the super
ior court last week, that he turn over
all books and papers to the new re-
ceiver. Attorneys for Receiver Fett-
ger advised him to refuse the request
and a bitter contest as to who will be
receiver Is sure to follow.
1t is decided by all the attorneys
who asked for the new receiver today
that Fetzer's appointment in the su-
perior court was Illegal because Judge
Bretano was without proper jurisdlc-
ton when he made the appointment,

Roswell N. NJ, Aug. 13.-Hon. u.
s. Bateman, strong advocate of joint
statehood, in an interview given here
today, goes on record with a new
theory as a vote maker for jointure
with Arizona.
There is no show of single state
hood ip years to come" said Mr..
Bateman. "The Pecos valley, con-
sidered the best portion of the terri
tory of New Mexico, should be, and
probably will be annexed to Texas If
joint statehood is voted down. If Ar
iona were convinced that Chaves, Ed
dy. Lincoln, Roosevelt and Guada-
loupe counties would be annexed to
Texas in the event that joint state
hood would fail, she would certainly
prefer not to lose this best portion Of
New Mexico, to be ultimately forced
into a union with the remaining por-
ton of the territory. The republicans
would control Arizona and unanl-
mously If joint statehood should fail.
I'm the event statehood carries
there will be more emigrants to the
state of Arizona in one year than to
both territories in any five years of
their separate existence as terri
tories"
Mr.. Bateman has written to sena-
tors, the governor of Texas and to
President Roosevelt asking opinions
as to the annexation of the Pecos val
ley to Texas in the event that joint
statehood Is voted down.

Popular Young Society Man
Breaks Down and Confess
eS He Has Been Looting
Bank for Months.

Birmingham, Ala, Aug. 13.-With-
in twelve hours today Alexander b.
Chisholm, paying teller of the First
National bank, was arrested. charged
with the embezzlement of $4,000 Of
the banks funds, given a preliminary
hearing before United States Commits
sioner r. b. Watson, put under bonds
of $4,000, and, failing to make it, to-
night is in the custody of the United
States Officials at one of the princi-
pal hotels of the city, During the af-
ternoon w. l.. Sims and c. M. Hays,
manager and assistant manager of a
stock and cotton brokerage ware
house, were arrested, charged with
aiding and abetting the embezzlement
of National bank funds. They were
also given a preliminary hearing this
evening and Sims bond was fixed at
$4,000 and Hays bond at $4,000.
Both furnished bonds.
The shortage at the First National
bank was discovered while Chisholm
was on his annual vacation. The
bank had a large reserve fund on
hand and it was from this that the
amount was taken.
Officials decided to wait and allow
Chisholm to return voluntarily. When
he stepped from the train this morn
ing he was confronted by the federal
officials and several directors of the
bank, He at first stoutly denied any
knowledge of any shortage. but later
in the presence of the directors, made
full confession.
w. p. G. Harding, president of the
First National bank, said this after
noon that the bank would not lose the
whole amount, and that the defalca-
tion would not affect the institution
The bank has a capital 'of $1,000. 900
and surplus of 100000. When
Chisholm was arrested $4,000 was TAX
EN- from his suit case. He was bonded
by one of the large bond companies
for 100000. The difference be-
tween these amounts and the short
age has already been taken from the
undivided profits account of the bank
and charged to profit and loss.
Young Chisholm was one of the
most popular young men socially and
personally in Birmingham. He comes
from one of the best families in the
south.
1t is said that practically all the
money embezzled by Chisholm has
been used in speculation in cotton flu
lures and his losses have extended
over a period of several months. 1t Is
said that he traded under an assumed
name, made all his payments for
margins in cash and that not one of
his intimate friends knew aught Of
the transactions.

ONE FARE To.
CONEY ISLAND
OR BUST
PITCHED BATTLE OVER
EXPORTING SECOND NICKEL
New Workers Fight Street Car
Employees Rather Than Take!
Pink Trip Slip for a Ten Cent
Fare.

New York, Aug. 13.--The determ-
ination of the people to resist the
payment of a ten-cent fare to the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit company for
passage to Coney Island supreme
court Justice Gaynor having decided
that five cents was the legal fare,
lead to further excitement today.
Late tonight the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit company relaxed its enforce
ment of its rule that double fares
must be paid. Numbers of passen-
gers on cars bound from Coney Island
who would not pay the extra five
cents were allowed by conductors and
inspectors to continue on their way.
That the officials of Kings county
and the Borough of Brooklyn were
prepared to enforce Justice Gaynor's
decision became apparent during the
day. District Attorney Clarke, of
Kings county detailed one of his as
sstants to hear complaints of rough
treatment by the company's employees
because they had refused to pay an
extra fare. Mr.. Clark also announced
that prosecutions would follow every
pEONtll case vi bOI-
ough President Bird S. Coler issued a
public statement advising patrons to
pay but a single fare for a ride from
points In Brooklyn borough to Coney
Island and the police in the affected
district were ordered To be ready to
quell any fresh disturbance. Mean
time Acting Police Commissioner
Waldo revoked permits empowering
the company to employ special police
men to assist the regular men of the
company to put off its cars persons
who resisted any demands for the ex-
ira fare. Commissioner Waldo de-
clared that the ruling of Justice Gay
nor would be enforced and any rough =
ness toward passengers by company
| representatives would meet with ar
| rest. This was offset and complicated
| to some extent by an official opinion
! by Acting Mayor MCGOWAN later in
! the dav after a conference betweeen
him and Corporation Counsel Delaney
| that the Brooklyn Rapid Transit COM
pany had the right to refuse to carry
persons who refused to pay second
fare and the company's employees
might use force, il need be. in case
of resistance
/ Meantime, the company, through
its counsel, ex-Justice Edward w
Hatch, issued a statement defending
the right of the company to charge a
! ten-cent fare to Coney Island. f. ].
Calderwood, vice president and gem
eral manager of the company, backed
up this opinion by a statement that
business would be done "in the same
old way"
This afternoon the company's en-
ployes again began hating cars when

probable. 1t was thought the whole
question would resolve itself into liti-
cation to force the company to
