RAILROAD MEN ROAST CANNON

Among the resolutions adopted
Monday by the Brotherhood of Rail-
way Trainmen in national convention
at Atlanta was one denunciatory OF
the action of Speaker Cannon in the
national house OF representatives In
his attitude toward labor and oppos-
ing his reelection. As ground for
this the preamble recites that I'VE
have reason to believe that Joseph
Cannon has, as speaker OF the nation
al house Of representatives used the
influence and power of that great Of
fee to defeat the passage of legisla-
tion sought by the railroad employees
both in the way of appointing as
members Of the house committee to
which such legislation would be re-
ferred men who were known to be
hostile to its enactment, and by the
use of threats, intimidation and force
compelling members to vote against
our legislation contrary to their own
conyictions.'

A Scottish paper tells a story of an
old Scottish woman who was ''unco'
drouthie," without the money to buy
"a drappie" "Lassie," she said to
her little granddaughter, gang round
to Donald McCallum and bring me q
gill. Tell him I'll pay him i the morn
ing"
Back came the child with a refusal.
Donald declined to part with his whis-
ky without the cash. Eager and irri-
tated, the old woman cast about for
some means Of raising the wind" and
her eye fell upon the family Bible.
Here, lassie," she said, 'gie him this
and tell him to keep it until bring
him the siller" Off went the little
girl. but she soon returned, still car
rying the Bible. Donald was obdurate
He says he maun haze the baubeec

In anger the disappointed grand
mother threw up her hands and ex
claimed: "Losh, did onybody ever hear
the like o. that! The man will neither
tax my word nor the word o God fol

A Canine Shirker.

Rex, a thoroughbred Spitz, must per-
form the painful duty Of escorting q
certain neighbor home when she has
been calling at our house. However,
it is not without a show Of reluctance
that he does it. Recently our friend
missed her escort, and no amount Of
whistling proved equal to recalling
him. This occurred several times and
it was always in about the same place
that Rex disappeared. One night our
friend determined to discover Rex's
little game. After whistling and call
ing she made a pretense Of going on.
She stopped in a deep shadow
Around the corner of the nearest house
appeared a Sinking figure. Stealthily
quitting the shadows Rex crept out
and peered long and anxiously up the
street, whittier, as he well knew, he
should have continued TO conduct the
lady. After this he turned shamelessly
around and lit out for home Chicago

To the roof went the guardsman,

AS he was doing this the bear made

SITUATION IN PERSIA
Ambassador Leishman Says Reports
from There Are CoIored for
Political PURPOSES

Washington, Aug. 13.-The follow
ing cablegram received at the state de-
partment from Ambassador Leishman,
dated Saturday at Constantinople, rel
alive to the clash between Turkish
and Persian troops on the boundary
line between those countries: Further
investigation regarding the frontier
trouble confirms the correctness of my
former opinion that the Americans in
Urumiah are in no particular danger
of attack by the Turkish regular
troops"
Ieishman expresses the opinion that
published reports of the border trouble
are exaggerated and colored for politi-
cal purposes. The fact that Russia
is the only nation that maintains a con-
sulate at Urumiah makes it difficult
to obtain reliable information from
that point. Mr. Leishman suggests
that If the state department is desir-
Gus of keeping in close touch with the
situation it might order the American
consul at Tabriz to proceed to Urumiah
and report.

One Dead Victim Is
Woman

Belfast, Aug. 13.-Serious and fatal
disorders occurredher again last even
ing The troops fired into the crowd
and woman and a man were shot
dead and a number of others were Sc
riously wounded. The conflict between
the soldiers and the rioters took place
in the vicinity of the constabulary bar
racks in the Cullingtree road The
trouble became acute about p. IN.
when a mob Of men and women at
tucked a police inspector. Soldiers
were at once summoned to the scene,
bnt they were met by hail of paving
stones which resulted in emptying some
OF the saddles.
The riot act was read, but the mad
dened mob refused to dispense and
kept up terrific fusillade of stones,
broken bottles and brickbats against
the police and the military. Bayonet
and baton charges failed to rout the
frenzied rioters and ultimately the or
der to fire was given. Rioting con-
tinued until nearly midnight The riot
ers stretched chains across the streets

official reports state that three rioters
were killed. six seriously and hun
dreds slightly wounded The police
courts sat until midnight hearing
charges against the numerous prison
ers.

sufficient force remained loyal To per-
nit the main body Of news to move.
In the smaller cities where the AssO-
ciated Press operators are the medium
by which the news is transmitted to
tho newspapers there was a similar
cessation of work. Many of these
points received their news service by
telephone and other emergency meth
DDS, but in some instances the operator
remained loyal and continued TO serve
the local papers.
General Manager Stone remained at
the general offices of the Associated
Press at New York throughout the
night, receiving reports from various
sections, and arranging for the unin-
terrupted continuance of the news
service to the newspapers of the cOun-
try. One Of his first messages was
one OF recognition Of the devotion of
those who had remained loyal to the
service and were carrying forward the
work. Another message directed that
all men who had struck be paid off
and their services terminated as soon
as possible.
The strike was made against the
wishes and advice Of Grand Secretary
Russell, of the telegraphers' union,
who made every effort to keep the
men at work for another twenty-four
hours, or until arrangements had been
made for a conference between Gener-
al Manager Stone, of the Associated
Press, and a committee of the opera
tors.

IN TOO BIG A HURRY

Want a Reply Too Sudden.
New York, Aug. 13.-Melville E.
Stone. general manager of the Associ-
ated Press, has replied to the requests
cf the telegraphers employed by the
Associated Press. These requests were:
DAY work, six days, eight hours daily,
$50 per week, and overtime and extra
at the rate Of 60 cents per hour. Night
work, six nights, eight hours, $50 per
week, and overtime and extra at the
rate of 70 cents per hour. The vaca-
tons to remain as at present. A pro-
portionate increase for chiefs and sub
chief operators" The telegraphers re-
quested a reply by 7:30 p. m. yester-
day, IS dated New York, Aug. 10, 1907,
and says:
II received this morning a cOmmuni-
cation from a large number of the op-
orators i'll the service Of the Associated
Press asking for a changed scale OF
wages and hours, and requesting a re-
ply by 1880 o'clock this evening. The
changes involved are so radical in their
nature as to add over 100000 a year,
and probably more, to the expense Of
this organization. The Associated Press
is mutual i'll its character, makes no
prots, and has no surplus fund out Of
which such a sum could be paid Any
such increase must Of necessity be
levied back upon the newspapers as a
part of their weekly assessments.
''As general manager 1 have no pow
er to make such an increase, either in
salaries or assessments, without au-
thOrity from the board of directors,
and it Is obviously impossible to call
this board together within the time
named. The board consists of fifteen
members scattered throughout the en-
tire country.
''At the same time, acting under au-
thority heretofore granted me by the
board Of directors, shall be very glad
at any time to meet a committee of
! our own operators and confer with
them respecting hours of service and
| compensation with a view to making
! some recommendation to the next
| meeting of the board of directors which
/ shall meet any fair or ust expecta-
tons of those in our operating service
Even were free to act think you
/ must agree with me that a question
of this magnitude should not be pressed
to a conclusion within the limits of 6
few hours and without any opportuni-
ty for consultation between myself and
representatives Of our operating force.

Chinese Stewards on Pacific Liners.
We sailed from San Francisco, bound
for Honolulu, on a ship whose stewards
and sailors are Cinnamon. Even if all
does not go well with the boats motion
in days of storm, one cannot fail to be
entertained by these spry sons of the
orient
The costume worn by the stewards is
quite remarkable. For ordinary, ev-
eryday wear they don white garments
that resemble American pajamas in
their style of cut and fit For dinner
each evening and on Sundays the white
suits are exchanged for light blue gar
ments of the same iption-rather
an odd livery to our prosaic minds! OF
course, every Chinaman preserves q
habitual, solemn silence. If, owing to
an interesting conversation, the passen-
ger fails to notice the dish with which
the table steward is trying to serve
him the patient Chinaman stands i'm
movable, with outstretched hand and
sphinxlike cOuntenance until attention
is drawn to him, after which, his duty
! done, he slips in silence on his way.
Flooding. silently, the sailors attended
to their duties with mournful faces that
strongly appealed to me. They ate
with chop sticks, sitting on their heels
the while, and were, in fact, eminently
satisfactory specimens in every way
