The same old story. Roanoke needs

ton OF goats out OF the onc-tlme Colts.
ESalve was the bright particular goat.
and let the Ronnokers do just about
what they wanted to. which was to
win the game. Outside Of the win, 1t
was rather nice game. Both teams
played we'll, and Roanoke batted
rather freely. Richmond. OF course,
failed to connect with the ball.
There is Just one consolation about
the next to the bottom place In the
percentage column. The next to the
bottom team can always look down
on the under dog. And Petersburg Is
near enough to give the Colts good
look.
Clayton will be in the Broad Street
Park this afternoon. to mako try
for the position made vacant by the
departure Of Baker. With him Will
be Sam Edmondston, who started out
with Richmond, but was let go. Both
are in good shape and ready to work
hard at the tail-end OF the season. Ed
mundson has been pirooting about the
Northern teams this summer. and
failed to handle the goods that win.
He was In faster company than he
looked for, and It Is expected that he
will pan out all right with Rich

Steve Griffin Is in right bad shape

night fof Carl Walker, but the Rich

this season. and It is hardly probable
that he will listen to Griffin's PROPOSE

POST IN LABOR TROUBLE
SEEKS TO PREVENT PROPOSED
CLOSED SHOP AGREEMENT.
AS Stakeholder in Bucks Stove and
Range Company He Proposes to
Test Strike Problem in CoulV.

Red Oak, Iowa.-C. w. Post of
Battle Creek, Mich, who filed suit
in the United States court for the
eastern district of Missouri at St
Louis, against the American Fedora
ton of Labor and the Bucks Stove
and Range company, took the ac-
ton before Federal Judge Smith
Mcpherson at Red Oak, Ia. Mr., Post
seeks an injunction against the fed
their officers and members, and pro-
poses testing in the equity proceed
ings the principle of the open shop
The action came before Judge Nc
Pherson because of the absence from
st. Louis of Judge d. P. Dyer.
The Post petition leaves the i'm
preston that there was an under
standing between Frederick w. Gard
ner, chairman of the board, and j.
w. Van Cleave, president of the
company, concerning the relation with
organized labor. While Mr.. Van
Cleave was president of the company
he fought the CLOSED shop" After
MI. van CleaVeS ueatn the company
reached an agreement with the Amer
lean Federation of Labor for the sole
employment of organized labor. Mr.,
Gardner, who lives at Chicago, held a
controlling interest in the stove COM
pany since 1904, and up to July, this
year, Mr.. Van Cleave's policy was in
force.
The petitioner AYERS that the COM
pany and the federation are preparing
to enter into agreement whereby the
company will be prevented from CAIN
ing damages from the union boycott,
and a claim of $75O,O0O damages is
advanced. The case brings the "open
shop problem before the federal
courts in a definite form.

NEW YORK STRIKE ENDS
Cloak and skirt Makers Return to
Work After Having Been Idle
for Nine Weeks.

New York City.-New York will
have no more sweatshops in the cloak
and skirt making trades. This is one
essential of the victory of the work
ers, whose strike of nine weeks is to
end at once. There is to be no more
contract work at home.
10000 Return to Work.
BY the settlement of the strike,
which was one of the greatest indus
trial disturbances in the history Of
American labor, 10000 garment work
ers soon will be back in their accus-
toned places. 1t is said 10000 of
them, and those dependent upon them
10000 in all-were on the point of
eviction. and hundreds already had
been forced on the streets.
The financial loss to employers and
employees was high into the millions.
The employers loss has been esti.
mated as high as $10,00O,O0O, while
the loss to manufacturers, jobbers
and retailers the country over has
been computed at 10 times that
amount.

Washington, d. C.-To date the

tion to be designated as repositories

OCEAN TRAVEL.

The fact that nearly 1000 first
cabin passengers left New York during
a recent week shows how high the
tide of ocean travel has risen this
summer. The companies were evil
Identity justified In their anticipation
Iof busy season. In fact, for several
weeks 1t has been impossible to get a
berth on any ship, except where plans
were changed and accommodations re-
sold. The figures for the year since
January / reveal a steady increase in
iall classes of travel over the corre-
spending period of last year. Thus In
west-bound ships the increase In first
class passengers has been 2,340, in
lsecond-class, 20715, and in steerage,
l72,577, while in east-bound ships the
first-class figures go up 1903, the Sec
ond-class $3.50, and the steerage 49,
1S0.. Later in the season, of course,
the balance will be restored by the
returning Americans in the first class
land by the larger number Of steerage
passengers bound for their native
lands. The record in every respect is
remarkable as a demonstration of the
fact that the sea is no longer an ap-
jpreciable barrier to international in
ltercourse.

BANKER DEFiES WARDEN AND is
STRIPPED OF "eooD BE.
HAVloR" SUIT.
LOSES CLAIM TO TIME OFF
Convict Violated Rules of Prison by
Paying Trusty for Favors-Chums
With Counterfeiter and Trust
ed Business to Him.

Atlanta, Ga.-Because he defied
the United States penitentiary here.
and refused to speak civilly, Charles
w. Morse, the former banker, who is
serving a 15-year sentence, was made
to spend two days in the prison dun
geon.
Morse, by his action, also lost all
right to "time Off for good behavior
up to the day of clash with the war
den. His good behavior suit was
taken from him and he was put into
q uniform worn by refractory Grim
inals
While in the hospital the banker
became acquainted with youth who
was serving sentence for counterfeit
ing. The youth had been especially
well-behaved while in the prison and
was made a "trusty'' about year
ago. He and Morse became good
friends, aud as the young mans time
in the prison was about to expire,
the former banker asked him to do
some business favors for him.
1t is understood that the youth
agreed and that Morse gave him a
considerable sum of money as re-
ward. Before leaving the peniten.
tiary, however, the counterfeiter told
some of the other convicts about the
money Morse had given to him, and
finally Warden Meyer heard of it.
AS it is against the rules for con.
vict to have any money in his pos,
session, Morse was hailed before the
warden and questioned concerning the
transaction.

SANE FOURTH KILLS 131
Best Record Since 1908, When 466
Lost Lives, Majority of Victims
Dying From LockjaW.

Chicago, Ill.-Although the list
of deaths and accidents due to the
celebration of the Fourth of July is
appalling, the sane observance" OF
the day this year shows notable i'm
provement in this respect, according
to statistics compiled by The Journal
OF the American Medical association.
The decrease In accidents is more
marked in those sections where re-
strictive legislation had been put in
effect, says the Journal. The sum
mary shows:
Two thousand nine hundred and
twenty-three persons were injured on
July of this year, of which 131 died.
Sixty-seven deaths were due to te.
tanus; 19 were killed outright by fire
arms; IL by explosion Of powder
bombs or torpedoes; by cannon or
similar contrivances, while 26, mostly
girl, were burned to death by fire from
fireworks.

Opportunity Of suffraqist.

Baroness Aletta Korff tells in one
of the magazines how the women OF
Finland came to vote. The fact H.
that women had to show that they
could meet an emergency before the
vote came to them. They have not
had many opportunities to take the
initiative in the worlds history and
they have not always responded when
the opportunity came. but when q
crisis, such as that in 1904, when the
strike and the revolutionary outbreak
in Russia took place at the same time,
occurred. they proved they could
make peace by doing it. Not until
England and the United States find
the women helping them to bear some
great trouble will they give them the
right to vote.

The large diamond found at the
Premier mine in South Africa is de-
scribed as weighing more than 191
carats. 1t is a pure white, flawless
stone, two inches long and about
three-quarters of an inch thick. Any
diamond weighing upward of 100
carats and free from flaw is sure to
attract wide attention, because there
are not many. How much the weight
of the present find will be reduced by
cutting is not stated, but the estimate
is made that it will be worth 100000,
its present value being about $150,000.
The koh-i-noor is said to have weighed
i794 carats in its original state; its
present weight Is 1o2% carats. The
largest section of the Culinan dia-
lmond weighs 5161a carats; it is 1892
inches long and 1871 inches broad.
