Efforts to Capture Futile.

Since the time when, early this
morning, the fugitive demanded
breakfast at the Gsrret farm and
then standing the family off at the
point of a revolver, carried young
Garret to an upper room af the house,
all efforts to capture him have been
futile. Although apparently ignorant
and unable to speak intelligently the
English language, he eyinced the
most remarkable traits of shrewd-
ness. and while the officers were
conniving and figuring on some way
to capture him he remained absolute
~ cool, making the young man first
taste all food in order to ascertain
whether il was dnped or not. Some
of the drinkables remained untouched
as he detected some odor to them.
The only statement he made during
the day was that he would give him
self up to the sheriff of Astoria,
whom he knew. and that he was
afraid OF being lynehed.
The officers and those about the
ranch are at loss as to what move
they shall make.

Years Truce Declared.

A years truce was declared by the
convention in the dispute between the
brewery workers. firemen, teamsters
engineers.
The day was given td the discussion
of various jurisdictional disputes.
Organizations affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor must
cease harboring seeding unions of the
electrical workers. President Gompers

tion had been raised today by Delegate
Hayes of Cleveland.
Mr.. Hayes said the state federations
in West Virginia. Utah. Montana, ok
lahoma. Washington, New Jersey and
Nebraska were protecting seeding fac
tions of the electrical workers. and
he wanted to know IL their charters
would be revoked. President Gompers
replied that when informal complaints
We're received the offending organiza-
tions would be advised that their
course must be changed.
In the controversy between the In
ternational Association of Car Workers
and the Brotherhood of Railway Car
men the committee recommended that
N conference between the executive

Governments Attitude.

The attitude of the government was
clearly shown late today, when the
state department sent "A dispatch to
the Bluefields steamship company. the
headquarters of which is in New Or
leanss The corporation was warned by
agents of the Nicaraguan insurrection-
AIRY forces that the companys vessel,
carrying rifles and munitions. would
be liable to seizure, and the steamship
people promptly called on the state
department to declare the protection of
this government in such cases. The
state department replied as promptly.
The answer was the result of a con-
ference between the president and the
secretary of state and carried full
weight. II gave the steamship COM
pany no encouragement and practically
recognized the revolutionary forces
operating against the Zelayan admin
istration. "A proceeding for which there
probably is no parallel i'm the records
of this government.
The dispatch. directed to the steam
ship company at New Orleans. and
signed Knox, Secretary OF State"
read:
If the announced blockade or in
sestment of the Nicaraguan port of
San Juan del Norte tGreytown) is ef-
fectively maintained. and the require
ments Of international law, including
warning to approaching vessels. are
observed, this government would not
be disposed to interfere 10 prevent its
enforcement. A naval vessel will be
ordered to Greytown Ia observe and

fectiye"

attached at the collar line in a more

as border of the frill and the collar
