 Ststtin, August S.--The eight thou sand riveters of the Vulcan Ship Yard here who have been locked out for some time owing to their refusal to accept the terms of the employers rel alive to the payment of overtime rates and because of. their objection to working extra hours in the com pletion of contracts, have unanimously rejected the terms offered them by the employers. The latter refuse to increase the wages of the men, which they say have this year averaged from ss.s0 to s12.40 per week.
 As a consequence of the attitude of the workman, all the iron masters of this district joined in the movement and decided to discharge six per cent of their employees, totalling five thou sand shipbuilders.

 States.
 I,ohdon, Aug. s.--The Constitution Congress, which has been in session at the Franco British Exhibition, diseuss- ing safeguards for the various consti- tutiens to provide for maintaining per- sonal liberty and responsibility closed today with a debate on the constitution of the United States. during the course Of which Professor Albert Venn Dicey of Oxford referred to what he described as melancholy paradox"
 He said that while the United States started with an advantage unknown in any other counthy--with constitution designed with more care, more skin and more success than almost any other constitution deliberately designed by rnan---yet the candid American citizen would say that on the whole, they are little better governed than the best European States; while the candid Eu- ropean critic would put in that the United States is not much worse gov- erned than the best States of Europe. That was the paradox of a country filled with noble people. who were gov erned in a way that would not for moment be tolerated in Paris, London or Berlin.
 The city of Washington is well ad- ministered. continues Professor Dicey, because 1t was not democratically gov erned. It is governed by the commits sioners appointed by Congress. body not nearly so democratic as the crown of England. Professor Dicey expressed admiration for the Supreme Court. which, he said, was "one of the most successful institutions" but he doubt ed whether the balance of power exist ing in the United States could exist in any European country.
 Yves Kuyot. the French political economist and former Minister of Pub lie Works. thought the constitution of America has many advantages for a. democratic country and though possibly so rigid on the other hand it prevented wild enterprises.

 Havana. Aug. s.--Although a week has passed since the provincial and municipal elections took place. com piete returns have not yet been re- ceived. there still being lacking res ports from four of the eighty-two mu- nicipalitieS.
 It is out now that the Conservatives have elected Governors Of Santa Clara, Matanzas and PinaF del Rio provinces, the Miauelistas in Oriente and Cama- guey provinces and the Zayfstas fin Ha- Vana province.
 With the vote in four municipalities for Mayor lacking. the results received show that the Miguelists elected thir- ty-three mayors the Conservatives twenty-eight and the zayaistas thir- teen.

Tn Pay Am CIaimn.


 New York. Aug. s.-tsThere is no in- tention on the part of Thaw to de- fraud any of his creditors" said A. Russell Peabody today. Mir. Peabody Is still the personal counsel of Thaw and with Clifford W. Hartridge is named as one of the claimants in the proceedings. Mir. Peabody added:
 Every one vii be paid what is com ing to them. Some of the claims. he thinks ,are a bit exorbltant, or the claimant has placed an exaggerated value on his services. This, he thinks, applies both to some of the alienists and to some of the lawyers as we'll.
 When these claims have been pared down to proper proportions, Thaw means to pay them. I have no doubt that Thaw's going into bankruptcy was a. surprise to some of those who remain unpaid, but 1t appears to have been the only proper thing for him to do un- der the circumstances. But he has no intention of depriving any of his cred . itors of penny to which they are en- titled"
