TWO 'QUAKES ALSO AT SANTIAGO

There were two slight earth
quake shocks at Valparaiso last
night. Rain began falling again
this morning, increasing the suf-
ferings of the thousands who are
living in tents. Many sought refuge
in houses whose walls are in dam
gerous state of ruin.
1t is believed that if the rain con-

almost certain to occur at Nalpa-

conditions existing there.
The houses at Santiago are be-

McGRAW'S SUSPENSION.
Listed to Take Place at Cincinnati
Tomorrow,

NEW YORK, August 24.-In announcing
today that the suspension of Manager Nc
Graw of the New York National League
ball team is listed to take effect tomorrow
at Cincinnati, President Pulliam of the Ma
tional League further approved the action
of Umpire Johnstone in suspending the New
York manager. McGraw was suspended for
using improper language directed at the
umpire during a game between New York
and Chicago at the Polo Grounds in this
city several weeks ago.
In the statement which he issued today
President Pulliam said that in view Of the
serious nature of the charges against Nc
Graw he had gone more thoroughly into the
case than in any he had decided in four
years.
my conclusion" says President Pulliam
"is that McGraw used the most villainous
language one mortal could use to another
to Umpire Johnstone on the ball field and
well merited his removal I regret that 1
am unable to take the base ball patrons
into my confidence and give them the evil
dence before me, but the laws Of the
United States and the vigilance of one An
thony Comstock prevent me doing SO. The
proper penalty in this case is not in my
power to decree. The So-called base ball
asset is zealously guarded Some day the
institution itself, the game and the league
will take precedence over all"

WALDOBORO, Maine August 24.-Presi-
dent Samuel Gompers of the American Fed
GRAFTON Of Labor is satisfied that Charles
X. Littlef1eld will not be reelected to Con-
greSS from the second district. He says the
movement Of the labor men against Mr..
Littlef1eld has now gained such an impetus
that nothing can save the representative
from defeat
Il feel absolutely sure now that we have
Mr.. Ltt!efield beaten" says Mr.. Gompers.
My opinion Is that We will accomplish our
mission and retire this enemy to the labor
ing people and the business men, Such is
not based alone on the impression I have
gained from our meetings. We have had
great crowds of earnest and sympathetic
voters, and they have remained in the halls,
in spite of the suffocating heat.
Il have met many men on the street and
at my hotel In each place 1 have visited,
and they all have thanked me for express
ing the hostility of Mr.. Littlefield to the
interests of the people. Many of them have
told me of friends of theirs who are not
going to vote for Mr.. L'ttlefed as a result
Of our movement. l have been told by
others of the general dissatisfaction with
Mr. Ltttlefeld which prevails in the dis
trict
Reports from my associates are very en-
couraging and show that not only working
men, but business maa have deserted Mr..
Littlefield
Grant Hamilton, who Is in charge of our
movement, with headquarters at Rockland,
tells me that the reports he has received
from various parts of the district insure
the success of our campaign 1 have no
hesitation IN saying that the next Con-
gress will be deprived Of the services Of
Mr.. Littlefield.'

SAN FRANCISCO, August 24.-Southern
Pacific officials state that the Salton sea,
in the Colorado desert, is rising less than
an inch a day now, and they expect in a
few weeks to begin work on a plan by
which the Colorado river will be once
again restored to its old channel. This
will probably cost the company 500, ,OOO
A large force of men and teams is to be
employed to construct heavy embankments
where the river water is flowing into old
channels and thence into the Salton basin
which Is 262 feet below the level Of the
sea.
Engineers in the employ Of the railroad
say that once the river Is sent back into
it's old channel the water in the so-called

CORPORATIONS BUSY.
Efforts in Scranton District to Beat
Labor Man.

Special Dispatch to The Star
SCRANTON. Pa, August 24.-The hand
that union labor is taking In congressional
politics in Mr.. Littlefield's district in Maine
Is attracting no more attention now than
the effort the corporations will make later
on in the tenth Pennsylvania district when
the campaign opens up in the middle of
October to down Thomas D. Nichols, dis
trict president of the United Mine Workers
of America, who has been nominated for
Congress by the democrats to oppose
Thomas H. Dale, the republican candidate,
who is a coal operator.
The tenth district comprises Lackawanna
county. Scranton is the county seat and
1t is also the metropolis of the anthracite
coal fields. The county is normally re-
publican by at least a thousand majority.
1t hasn't had democratic representative
in Congress more than once or twice in
the last twenty-five years. and then only
because there was a Kilkenny uprising in
the republican party locally.
This time there is no family fight to dis
turb the average republican VOTE and 1t
will be well worth watching this g,apple
of capital and labor in the political arena.
There isn't a congressional district IN the
United States better organized as to trades
unionism than this. The plumbers, tin
smiths, carpenters, plasterers, painters
mine workers, blacksmiths, nodcarriers
cabdrivers, etc, are all organized. 1t is
safe to say there isn't single branch of
manual labor without its local here.
Now, the question Is whether they will
be union men first and republicans or
democrats second. If the union men rally
to the standard of Mr.. Nichols, Repre-
sentative Dale will have as much show of
returning to Washington next Congress as
Of going in a submarine to the north pole.
Amhripan Federation ~
sists that it is the duty of faithful union
men to vote for Mr.. Nichols, whether
they are republicans or democrats, and the
issue will be brought actively into the de-
liberations Of each local.
big majority of voters of this county
are employed by the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna & Western railroad, the Delaware
& Hudson railroad. the Ontario & Western
railroad or the Erie railroad, either In the
railroad or mining departments. Quite a
number are foreign born and susceptible
to taking orders on how to mark ballots
when given by the foremen Immediately
over them.
District President Nichols is one of the
right arm supporters of John Mitchell in
the anthracite fields. He was the first
president Of district No. 1, and has been
reelected each year without opposition
and at an increase in salary nearly every
gressional campaign go by the board, Mr..
Nichols will have the largest majority
any candidate ever got in the tenth. If
a stiff opposition is put up there is no tell
labor people had a chance to elect their
mayor Of Scranton in 1903. but failed
through divided forces. They have learn
ed from the mistakes Of that campaign
and are not likely to repeat the same
errors.
Mr.. Nichols. though running on the
democratic ticket, Is a republican, except
that he voted for Bryan the last time.
