BATTLEsHIP WINS RACE.

NEW YORK, March 5.-Virtually racing with death. the battleship Con necticut put into this port bearing her company of typhoid-stricken sailors. and won a victory after a thrilling run up the coast from Cuba. The men who were in the battleship's hospital were hastily transferred in ambulances that were in waiting at the Brooklyn navy yard. and the marine surgeons de, clared later that the timely arrival of the battleship had probably saved the lives of all of the .,valided sailors of Rear Admiral Evans fleet.
 Captain William Swift of the Con necticut declared that he had thirty two cases of typhoid on his vessel. the names of the sick men being with held because they had been trans mitted by wireless to the navy depart ment at Washington yesterday when the battleship was off Cape Henry.
 Members of the Connecticut's crew. however, emphatically declared that there were many more than thirty-two cases on the battleship. and that the number of stricken sailors was nearer seventy-five than the figure given by Captain Swift.
 Rear Admiral Evans. according 10 Captain Swift. is in the very best ci health. and has no thought of retiring.
 The navy hospital reported that none of the men are in serious condi- tion. The admiral was asked to assign a cause for so many cases on one ship. and replied that this was i'm possible. as it might have been due to any one of a number of things. He decJared that 50 far as he knew there would be no board of inquiry into the ships condition. that she would pro ceed to Tompkinsvilie tomorrow, where she would coal and that then she would immediately rejoin Admira Evans feet at Guanfanamo.

WAGE QUESTION NOW UP ID 4 STRIKE VOTE
 OF TRAINMEA
After Four Weeks Conference Managers Say Limit of
 Concession Reached.

CHICAGO. H.. March 5.-Negotia- tions between the western railroad managers and the trainmen and con dnctors were abruptly terminated last night without an agreement being reached. The question of a strike is now up to the men. Committees rep resenting the men on forty-two rali- road systems throughout the west left the city last night. carrying with them strike ballots to be voted on.
 About fifteen days will be required to take a secret ballot. That the vote will be in favor of accepting the comprcmise offer made by the rail- roads is not expected The ballot places the two questions before the men, whether they shall accept the of fer or place the authority to order a strike in the hands Of their execu- tive officers. If a strike vote is car ried the officers will again put the matter up to the general managers be- fore calling out the men.
 Several concessTons were offered by the general managers, but few of them were acceptable to the commit tees. Last night the officers received a communication from the general managers stating that they had reached the limit and would go no further. The committees replied that they also had made all the conces- sions from their original demands that they felt themselves justified in doing and that it was up to the rank and file 0f their respective organi- cations to de tide on the next step.
 The offel made by the railroads av. erages about eight per cent increase m wages, with practically no change in the hours or working conditions The men on all freight trains were offered q fiat increase of 10 per cent, while men on passenger trains were offered less than per cent increase. The eight-hour day originally pro posed by the men, which in reality means a speed of twelve and one-half miles an hour, instead of ten miles, as at present, was waived during the conference, and a substitute of eleven miles an hour. or a nine-hour day, proposed The managers refused to make any concessions on the question of hours. except that on one or two roads. where the wages are now based on twelve hours a day, a reduc- ton was offered of ten hours as a basis.
 ! In the original demands of the men they asked for time and one-half for overtime. This demand they also waived and offered to accept a pro rata scale for overtime.
 The negotiations between the rail roads and the trainmen and conduc- tors have been carried on in almost daily conferences since January 2t.

Owing to modern methods of living not one woman in a thousand ap- breaches this perfectly natural change without experiencing train of very annoying and sometimes D painful symptoms.
 This is the most critical period of her whole existence and every woman who neglects the care of her health at this time invites disease and pain.

Referring to this appalling snowlng the New York World says:
 There can be neither defense nor excuse for such a record of homicidal negligence and incompetency, yet the list of killed and wounded is certain to grow by leaps and bounds as long sthe American captain of industry Is allowed to regard the American rsilroad as merely pawn in the game of high finance. No other com ment on the Wall street conception of railroads. functions is so damning as this bioodstained record of the dead and maimed."
 Yet what remedy will the World suggest? While the railway rate bill was pending the World objected to legislation on that line and then when eovernnsene ownsrsifp was KuEgeuted the World called fnet an innpossibis plan.
 The American captain of industry does regard the American railroad ss merely a pawn in the game of high finance" What will the Ameri- can people do about it?
