CERMANY'S ACTION

Adrich DenOunces Method Of
Supplying Information.

Washington, May 31.-Senator Aid
rich denounced as "impertinent" the
effort of the German government to
influence American tariff legislation
by supplying anonymous information
as to wages paid German workmen
His characterization followed q state
ment by Senator Depew intimatine
that German manufacturers were
striving to influence congress through
the German government and Ameri
can importers of German goods.
The reply of the president to a sen
ate resolution calling for a statement
of the German government as to
wages in Germany proved the signal
for this animated discussion as soon
as the senate assembled. The presi

IN ORDER TO CUT EXPENSES
War Department VIII Suspend I'm.
provement Work.

Washington, May 31.-Secretary
Dickinson says that in accordance
with the specific instructions of the
president the estimates for the mil.
itary establishment for the fiscal year
1911 would be s20,900.000 less than
the appropriations for the fiscal year
1910. He explained that 1t was inn
possible to make any reduction In the
pay of the army, or in the expense for
feeding and transporting the officers
and troops, or in providing forage for
horses and mules, or. in fact, in any
of the regular expenditures for the
maintenance OF the purely military
establishment.
Consequently 1t will be necessary, he
said, to confine the reduction of ex
penses almost entirely to public
works, including rivers and harbors
works, Notifications and barracks and
other buildings under the quartermas
ter's department. 1t was pointed out
that the only way the estimates can
be reduced to the desired figure is by
the omission of estimates for projects
and new work of all kinds and con
fining the estimates to the bare main
tenance of the establishment as 1t is
II was explained that the effect oil
such policy would be to delay the
completion of many public improve
ments now under way.

CAR STRIKE FAR

Service at Philadelphia but
Partially Affected.
SOME DISORDERS OCCUR

Residents of West Philadelphia, An,

Strong Sympathy for Striking EN-
ployes-company Employs Nearly
Seven Thousand Men, but Less
Than Half Are Unionists.
Philadelphia. May 31.-Philadelphia
is In the tangle of a street car strike.
The order of the executive committee
of the Carmen's union was not gen.
orally obeyed, enough men reporting
for duty to start the average number
of cars.
The order to strike went into effect
at 4 a. m, when the day service be-
gins. At 9 a. m. cars were running on
all but two of the lines of the Phil.
adelphia Rapid Transit company
which operates the entire street rail
way system, but 1t was apparent that
the company was having difficulty in
maintaining the regularity of the serv
ice.
While there has been agitation
among the men for higher wages and
better conditions it was not generally
believed that radical action would be
taken, as the union organization was
not believed to be strong enough to
carry on strike.
In West Philadelphia, where feeling
was strongest against the company
for raising the rate of fare, the com
pany experienced most trouble The
Fifty-second street line was tied up
On other lines in this section sympa
thizers jibed at passengers, many OF
whom left the cars. In some in
stances cars were. abandoned by
crews
Raise of Wages Causes Strike.
Paradoxical as it may seem the
strike was hastened through the ac
tion Of the company in raising the
wages of the men one cent an hour
from 21 to 20 cents. This was done
about two weeks ago and the in
crease is to go into effect July L
Prior to the announcement of the in
crease of wages the Philadelphia Rap
i'd Transit became the storm center ol
general protest by abolishing six for
q quarter tickets and adopting q
straight cent fare rate. Commit
tees OF citizens filed protests with the
company and great town meeting
was held at which fifteen of the prom
inent men of the city were appointed
q committee to take up the matter
with the company. So far this com
mittee has met with no success and
the matter is now before the state
railroad commission at Harrisburg
As the move to change the rate oi
fare was very unpopular among the
street car riders the leaders of the
union took advantage of the situation
and began agitating an increase in
wages and better conditions.
The traction company employs ap
proximately $500 motormen and con
ductors and II is claimed by the com
pany that not more than one-sixth oi
these are affiliated with the organiza
ton. On the other hand the union
leaders say that the unicn has mem
hership of $500.

DORANDO BEATS
 COREY EASILY

Chicago, January 22.-In a contest in which speed, stamina and experience over came what appeared to be indifference on the part of his opponent after the sec ond mile of the gruelling Marathon dis tance of 26 miles and 3S5 yards, Dorando Pietri, the Italian, defeated Albert Corey by margin of more than seven miles. The time was 2:56:OO 2-5. Without making a stop, Dorando won cleverly on his merits.
 Corey said that his running shoes were not fitted properly.
 Dorando Pietri, the Italian runner, and Albert L. Corey of Chicago, started to- night at 9:10 o'clock in the Marathon race at Dexter pavilion.
 Corey hesitated a moment at the end of the second mile, third lap, and gave signal to his trainers.
 He stopped on the track and exchanged shoes, giving every evidence of physical discomfort verging on collapse But after the change of footgear had been made Corey resumed the long journey with the wiry Italian sprinting from time to time and increasing his lead by four laps, until at the end of the first half hour Dorando was six laps in the lead.
 The first six miles was covered in 26:35 2-5 with Dorando in the lead by nine laps. The Italian supplied the en- thusiasm by frequent. spurts of speed. seemingly feeling nothing of the heart racking and lung expanding contest. As the doughty little Italian passed the judges stand at the end of the sixth mile he appeared to be in complete pos session of his breathing apparatus.
 When Dorando passed the ninth mile and seventh lap Corey stopped second time and had his trainers adjust his left shoe which he had complained of from the start, and two laps later he lost at least four laps by hesitating for another change of footgear Physical exertion did not appear to cut as much figure with Corey as his inability to handle his feet properly.
 An hour and 15 minutes after the start of the race, the Italian was exactly two miles in front of Corey, the latter sprint ing at intervals of four five laps. Dorando gave no outward evidence of fatigue, and contented himself with an occasional sip of moisture from sponge
