Situation Grows More Doubtful; Diff
ferent Opinions Expressed.

Chicago, Aug. 12.-Will there be a
street car strike in Chicago?
The street car situation in the city
became darker than it has been at
any time since the union men voted to
strike. The failure of the conference
between the union leaders and the Of
ticials of the street railway companies
to result in any tangible offer that the
union officials thought they could take
to their men gave rise to a growing
dissatisfaction among the employees.
The union officials demand something
besides promises to place before their
men and declare that unless they
can get it soon they viii not be re-
sponsible for what might occur. At
a conference held between President
Mitten of the City Railway company
and President Buckley of the South.

FORMER GOVERNOR PARDEE OF
CALIFORNIA ATTACKS HIM.
AT THE IRRIGATION CONGRESS
Declares Balinger Has Restored to
Public Entry Lands Containing Wa
ter Power Sites Which Roosevelt
Withdrew to Hold for the People.

Spokane, Wash, Aug. 1.-THE Bal
linger-Pinchot contest burst upon the
National Irrigation congress when DR.,
George c. Pardee, former governor of
California, attacked Richard A. Bal
linger, secretary of the interior with
a fierceness only seconded by that of
former Senator George Turner of
Washington, who defended the secre-
tary.
Mr.. Ballinger entered the auditorium
surrounded by reception committee,
and when he arose to speak he was
cheered for several minutes. He read
from a paper his ideas on reclamation
and the public domain. He contended
that what has been done by the secre.
tary of the interior was under the law.
Former Governor Pardee took the
platform to deliver the address under
the subject assigned to him. But he
had no use for his manuscript He
opened by saying that he was for
Roosevelt and his policies.
Roosevelt was a president who did
things first" said he, land talked
about them afterward, and that's the
kind of men we would like to see in
public office now" DR.. Pardee told OF
the activities of former Secretary Gar
field, who, under instruction of Presi
dent Roosevelt, withdrew from public
entry many tracts of land under the
belief that these lands should be held
for the people.
Now, he said, Secretary Ballingel
has again put up for entry these lands
and each tract has in its boundaries 6

Heat; Living Flag Abandoned.
Salt Lake City, Aug. 12.-Midsum-
mer heat thinned the annual parade
of the Grand Army of the Republic,
the feature Of the forty-third reunion,
and wrought still more suffering
among thousands of children who par
ticipated in the formation of the liv-
Ing flag. So oppressive was the heat
that the plan calling for the living
flag in the procession was abandoned.
At least 100 children and twenty old
soldiers were taken from the street.
Many of the victims, young and old,
recovered as soon as they were plac.
ed in the shade. Those treated at
the emergency stations numbered
about forty, fifteen of them grand
army men and thirty children. There
We're no fatalities.
At IL o'clock when the column got
underway the weather bureau Their
mometer registered SIS degrees. Not.
withstanding the discomfort the pa.
rade was a great success. The 5000
and more old soldiers, walking four
abreast, had the complete right OF
way. Fully 100000 per-ons saw, or
tried to see, the spectacle.

White Plains, n. Y, Aug. 12-The
state of New York won a complete
victory over Harry Thaw today when
Justice Isaac N. Mills decided that
the slayer of Stanford White was still
insane and sent him pack to the asy-
lum for criminal insane at Matteawan
To be Treated Better.
Not one of the many contentious
made by Thaw during the three weeks
of his recent hearing was sustained
He is, however, somewhat better off
than before he brought the present
suit because Justice Mills in his de-
cision suggests-and the suggestion
amounts practically to orders-that
Thaw at Matteawan be restored to the
privileges he enjoyed during the first
three months Of his stay there, and
that his mother be allowed all the
possible privileges and be treated with
every consideration when she calls to
see him.
