The Exemption of Unions.
(SpeciaI to The Bulletin.)

Washington. June 25.--The final ac- tion on the sundry civil bill, by which the house finally agreed to cut out the Hughes amendment, which exempted labor unions from prosecutions under the sherman antitrust law. ought to please the Connecticut manufacturers, who sent numerous telegrams to the Connecticut members urging them to vote against this amendment. The Connecticut members all stood by the manufacturers too, but If 1t had not been for President Taft and his letter on the subject, the house might not have agreed to the senate proposition.
 Today the Connecticut members are in receipt of letters and resolutions from several labor organizations in the state, commenting them for their stand, and from this it would seem that not all labor unions were In fla ver of the amendment. Of course it was well known down here that the American Federation of Labor was pushing for it, but it was generally supposed that all organized labor backed up the amendment.

 The warden found Charlton sitting on the edge of his pallet, his face in his hands, moaning and tabbering. A spasm seemed to seize him and he shook as with the ague. The warden thought it high time to send for a physician. and summoned Dr. William J. Arlitz, the city physician of Hobok- en, who has been retained by the Charlton as an aIienist.

All Three May Be in Conferenoe at Cambridge This Week--oossip of Important Political Gathering.

Z Oyster Bay, N. r.. June 26.--The embargo which Theodore Roosevelt has placed on political news direct from Sagamore Hill was not lifted to- day, and, in the absence of any visitor whom might be connected even re- motely with politics, there was no de- velvpInent in the situation which the coming conference with Gov. Hughes has created.
 Roosevelt in Fall Campaign.
 The news that Colonel Roosevelt has decided to enter actively into the fall campaign has begotten endless specu- lation, however from which there has arisen one well defined 11nxnor. TIhere is persistent buzz of gossip that the most important political gathering of recent months is to be held this week at Beverly, Mass, or nearby.
 No positive confirmatory evidence has been procured, but much weight is placed on three words spoken yester- day by Col. Roosevelt when asked if he expected to see President Taft st Rev. erly. after his visit to Harvard univer- sity, he said:
 'I don't know"
 His manner showed clearly his un- willingness to discuss the subject but he did not deny the possibility.
 Gov. Hughes secretary is quoted as having said yesterday that the govern or will see Colonel Roosevelt at Cam bridge this week. It is thought poasi- ble that President Taft, Colonel Rooseveib~ and Gov. Hughes may mlI three foregather.

RoRAeAck's SUCCESSOR,
 POSTMASTER AT CANAAN. Nomination of Harry A. Holt, Who Was Assistant Postmaster
(Special to The Bulletin. ]

Washington, June 25.-T'he nomina- ton of Harry A. Holt to be postmaster of Canaan. in place of J. Henry Rora- back, which was sent to the senate for confirmation on Thursday. disposes of a case that has been hanging fire since last February. MT. Holt is the assistant postmaster at present, and it is understood down here that he has run the office for some time. There will be no opposition to his confirma- ton IS far as can be learned at this time-
 This new appointment was brought about by the postmaster general him self, who took the matter into his own hands and disposed of it. The post office inspectors recently sent to the Canaan postoffice reported the absence of Mr Roraback. the postmaster, from his office, but at the same time set forth in their reports that the office was well conducted. These inspections are made from time to time, and there was nothing unusual in the Canaan office.
 When the time to make an appoint ment came around, however, MT. Iiill was served with notice that MT. Rora- back could not be named again for the place. but Mir. Hill it is understood, insisted that MT. Rorabaek be re- tained. The matter was allowed to drift along until someone called the case to the attention of the postmas- ter general himself, and he insisted a new ma n be named or MT. Roraback removed MT Eill is understood to have taken the matter mp with Presi- dent Taft. but he refused to turn down the postmaster general. and the result was the sending in of the name of the assistant postmaster.
 MT. Hill has refused right along 10 say anything about this matter and even now it Is not known whether he recommended MT. Holt or whether he was named by the postmaster general himself At all events, MT. Holt is the new postmaster. or will be as soon as confirmed.

 Rev. MT. Robbins told of going to the Philippines in 1905 and organizing church and later going into the mountains and finding that the na- lives had built church themselves without aid. A flag was flying from the hill to denote the place of worship. The work of spreading the gospel is going on steadily in all sections and there IS an eagerness for the gospel
 Now that the American government is there and bound to stay our duty is plain; we must give a just and liberal government and the gospel of the church of Jesus Christ must be carried to tHem. It is more than large moral question with religious issues. There are 1 900 islands in the Philippine archipelago and the re- sources are almost inexhausti stibIe. From the size and the resources there might be- no doubt as to their having their own government but they are not ready for that yet. There are many tribes and many languages and they are at SdTldHce WlIn edch other Ill many cases They are not ready for independence and we cannot escape our duty. This country has built bridges and roads, established tele- phones and mail service while the American educational system has been established. Four hundred American teachers first went there and now there are 800 American teachers for the half million children in their schools. The instructions are in Eng fish, thus making the opportunity for the Christian missionaries. A new system of justice is being esta bIished there with fine results, while the work in the hygienic department has de- creased the death rate in Manila 50 per cent. Intellectual and religious independence are doing wonders for the people. There was a time when people were shot er poisoned if they dared to think, but that day has passed and everyone can worship God accord ing to their own conscience A jail has been transformed into a high school and the educational work is accomplishing great things.

Three Chinamen Shot, Another Painfully Wounded More than Forty Shots in All Fired from Heavy Cali bred Revoivers-2, booth Anniversary of the Found ino of the Society of the Four Brothsrs-New York Police Reserves Called Out.

New York June 26-The furtive Tong war that sleeps but never dies. broke out again this Sunday within the little triangle of narrow streets, Chinatown. In ninety seconds three Chinamen were shot two of them fatally, third was painfully wounded, and more than forty shots from heavy caIibred revolyers spattered against the bricks or stained the pavements red In three minutes seven China men were arrested It was all over nearly as quickly as it had begun, and the remainder Of the afternoon the streets were as quiet as they had been an instant before battle and murder broke the stiffness.
 Streets Thick with Siehtseers.
 It happened that the 2,o00th anniver- gary of the founding of the Society of the Four Brothers fell on this day of rest. and in it's honor the members were to give a banquet in Pen street at five o'clock. A monster scarlet flag, ecalIoped in green foated from the banquet hall and guests began to ar give early from all parts of the city and even from neighboring towns. Sunday is market day for Chinatown. Then tho streets are thickest with EightSeers then the chop suey restau- rants thrive best and in remote back rooms the dice rattle faster and the uominoes click sharper.
 Shooting Began at p. M.
 It was in the midst Of this restless, ehufhing throns. sown thick with po Iicemen, that the shooting began at 1ust four o'clock There is no cer- 1ainty of the precise provocation, but 1t Is generally understood in China town that the Ong Leong Tong did not relish the fact that Clue Hen, recent W acquitted of the murder of an Ong a,eong Tong man, was to be the guest of honor.
