A design suggestive in every detail of the history of the United States has been adopted for the official pen- nant of the Jamestown Ter-Centen- nial exposition to be held by the shore of Hampton Roads near Nor folk next year. The design is the work of Mrs c. T. Sheppard, wife of the secretary of the Jamestown Ex- position company. The pennant is triangular in shape. The height at the staff is thirteen inches, one inch for each of the thirteen colonies that grew out of the first settlement of English-speaking people on the soil of this hemisphere at Jamestown. It is forty-six inches in length, having one inch of length for each of the forty-six states now in the Union. There are three stripes; one of red, one of white and one of bluea The stripes converge at the point or acute angle of the triangle of the flag. In the center of the flag is the official emblem of the exposition. The em- blem is delineated in gold and is sur rounded by circle of thirteen gold stars. Except for the official em- blem the colors are the same as those of the national flag.

General Rennenkampf, the Rus sian cavalry leader, who never made one good stroke during the campaign in Manchuria, although he seemed to have every advantage over the poorly mounted Japs, said recently that the war would have to be fought over in order that Russia may have revenge. Every great conflict at arms develops this sort of warrior, full of fight after peace is declared. Tn this country there were men who insisted for twenty years after Appomattox that the war must be fought once more. h the south the most bitter of the unreconstructed and in the north the wavers of the bloody shirt" were the ones who had shirked the battle when it was on. Of course 1t is im- possible for Russia to get revenge out of the Japs for that licking in this generation. No one knows that better than Rennenkampf if he is anything of a soldier. It is natural for a general who has been unfortu- nate to wish another try of luck. But Russia and her army have positive ly no chance to redeem themselves on the battlefield, and the sooner this talk of getting square is dropped the better 1t will be for the Russian peo- pie, who have troubles enough right at home.

A queer assortment of useless rub bish was unearthed in San Francisco when the private gifts from all over the country were opened by the dis tributing agents. Little judgment, surely, was exercised when opera suits, dress coats, jewelry and stage finery, even to silk tights. were bum dled off to protect from the clements men, women and children who had been burned out, says an exchange. Doubtless the first thoughts of light headed society women and chorus girls when they heard of the suffer- ing caused by the calamity was, What will those poor creatures do for silk, feathers and jewelry? Those are the things these beings prize most in life and would miss most if suddenly bereft. But the victims of San Fran cisco didn't deserve to be tricked out like fantastics to advertise their al- ready sad plight. Some donors who meant we'll rushed off heavy mittens, fur lined gloves and blizzard over coats, things of no use in the climate of California even in January. In fact, there was evident on all sides lack of good sense in trying to put stricken people on their feet. Prob ably the fault lay in the tender hearts which jumped to the conclu- sion that things past the stage of use- fulness for their owners might prove windfall to the naked, and anyhow they were welcome to them. Fortu- nately there were relief committees at work who bought and forwarded plain and serviceable clothes in the up to date markets, and when the needy ones got them they felt as good as ever.

AGREEMENT ''GFTEk7IDyG' STRIKE.
Galleries of Central Pennsylvania Bituminous District. Idle Since April I, Will Open Opera
 tions Hmm diately.

HARRISBURG, Pa, July 14.-The men in the collieries of the central Pennsylvania bituminous coal district numbering nearly 10000, who have been idle since April 1, when the mines closed down because the operators would not restore the scale of 1905. will resume work on practically the same scale as 1905.
 The agreement to do this was made in a conference that was attended by prominent operators. President. John Mitchell and Secretary Wilson of the United Mine Workers of America and representatives of the districts in the affected territory. A conference was held in Philadelphia at which terms were made. and these were submitted to the districts. which sent their men here to ratify them.
 The session lasted six hours. and after much discussion. principally on the "open shop" and the method of collecting the check-weighman fund. the following scale was agreed upon:
 "First.-Pick mining per gross ton. 66 cents: per net ton. 5s.S5 cents; ma chine loading shall be five-ninths of the pick price. plus one-half cent and cut ting and scraping. whether by the ton. dey or task, will be advanced 6.45 per cent above the price paid in 1905.
 "All other day wages and monthly men, both inside and outside the mines. and all yardage shall be advanced 5.s5 per cent above the rates paid dur ing the scale year ending March 3l. 1908. except all mechanics and skilled labor. who are to be paid such prices as shall be mutually agreed upon be- tween the undersigned and the me- chanics employed.
 Coke men to receive an advance of 5.s5 per cent over the rates paid dur ing the scale year of 1905.
 -second.-Eight hours of actual work at place of work shall constitute a days work for all labor inside the mines. except pumpmen and monthly men. who shall work the number of hours required"
 At last nights session the agreement and scale was signed by operators and miners and the conference adjourned. The agreement will affect 40.cco min CTS who are out in fourteen counties and is subject to ratification by dis trict convention which will probably be callei by President Gilday for Clesrield on Tuesday next
 The agreement is regarded as com promise. the miners getting the wage advance and the operators the "open shop and check weizhman points

The use of whiskey and other al- coholic beverages by government or municipal employees during hours of service is practically prohibited in Belgium. with the result that drunk enness is rarely met with in any branch of the public service. and nev- CT among railway employes- In fact, it may be said that while certain qualities of cheap gin are available to the poorest classes of laboreTs. drunkenness among them is the ex- ception and not the rule. The preva- lence of mild. cheap. wholesome brews of barley beer and light wines at moderate prices divert the taste from alcoholic beverages which are more costly. The importance of pro hibiting the use of all forms of in to1ieating liquors by railway em- ployes is not only realized in Bel Eium but also in the empire of Ger many. where the director general of the railways in Alsaee-Lorraine has forbidden their use by those engaged on the railways during their hours of service. This rule applies to all grades in the service and to all hours of the day. A first ozense is punish able hy loss of grade and the second by dismissal from the service. The

A committee appointed by the British parliament to investigate the tramp problem in England estimates that in seasons of depression there are S0,O00 tramps in that country and that it is never less than half that number. Tramps are everywhere and constitute an eyesore. They are considered to be vehicles of infec- tious diseases. Legislation by parlia- ment to regulate and mitigate the evil is recommended, though no solu- tion of the problem short of finding employment and paying better wages is regarded as possible.

TRADE CONDITIONS. \,
R. c. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Business
 Review.


 Review.
 NEW YORK, July 14.-R. c. Dun X Co.'S review of trade says that mid summer quiet conditions are more in evidence than at any previous time this season, although trade continues far in excess of earlier years and prepara- tions for fall and winter are unabated. Confidence is the commercial senti- ment, induced by exceptionally favor able crop reports and the absence Of any distinctly adverse factor. Whole sale distribution is very heavy for this period and the majority of reports in. dicate satisfactorily prompt collections. while at some points summer stocks are being reduced by clearance sales. Not only the leading industries, but nearly all manufacturing undertakings have orders assuring activity we'll into the future, and scarcity of labor Is still the chief complaint.
 All New England textile mills have restored wage scales to the top point and one prominent concern has volun- teered further advance to new high record. Disputes as to wages are practically settled at the soft coal mines and anthracite collieries are re- stunning. the sliding scale giving hard coal miners an advance of 1 per cent in July. Evidences of the unexcelled business during the fiscal year just ended are found in every statement that appears. one of the most signii- cant being an advance of g per cent in the money order transfers by the New York postoffice.
 Many iron furnaces and steel mills have resumed after a brief season of idleness for repairs. inventories. and settlement of wage scales, 90 that the production is once more very heavy.
 Textile manufacturing conditions are not materially altered. Primary mar kets for cotton goods continue quiet. buyers exhibiting a little more interest as stocks become depleted. but thus far the actual volume of new business is not significant.
 StNtIdl AldCNVu1A gam. AA1 prices of hides pace the general level of the market above all recollections of men now in the business.
 Farm staples declined in response to the very favorable oficisl report. which indicated the largest acreage in corn ever devoted to any crop and the bes, possible outlook for wheat. With re suits for these two principal cereals promising to eclipse all records. in con junction with splendid results last year. il was not surprising that quota tions became much lower.
 Liabilities of commercial failures thus far reported for July amounted to s2n1ly525. of which sl45.513 were in manyfacturinr. s1.5o5sl51 in trading add s13.ssl in other commercial lines.

It may be added that some of the railway companies of the United States, mo- tably the Pennsylvania, have adopted similar strict regulations against liquor drinking by their employees.
