SHIPBUILDING STRIKERS
IN GERMANY WIN VICTORY

BERLIN, Nov. 27.-The settlement of
the dispute between employers and
men in the shipbuilding trades has pro-
duced universal satisfaction among
the workmen, especially as no reprisals
are to be taken.
'Vorwarts,' the organ Of the So
cialist party, claims that the men have
won all along the line, and assumes
a rather boastful attitude. The ma
terial gains of the men are contained
in the concessions that wages are to
be raised by two pfennigs per hour
from January 1, and by another pfen-
mig from April l next, and that the
hours of work are reduced from Sc
to So a week. This is about one-third
of what the strikers demanded and the
regulations concerning piece work re-
main as they were.
1t may be assumed from the atti-
tude of the Socialist party that there
will be no further disturbance of the
peace for some time to come. though
a later opportunity will undoubtedly
be taken to demand further conces-

WOMEN DRIVE RED CROSS
CORPS OUT OF CATHEDRAL
Religious Fanatics Cause italian
Cholera Riots

MILA4, Nov. 27.-Bisceglia cathe-
dral in the province of Bari, has been
by shocking cholera riots.
The city was just beginning to re-
cover from commercial depression
when a fresh outbreak of Asiatic
cholera occurred. The Red Cross corps
was hastily summoned and began a
thorough disinfection of the cathedral,
which apparently was the scene of
contagion. Soon after bowling crowd
of the church and rushed upon the
Red Cross officials, trampling them
under foot and destroying the disinfec-
tion material and pumps.
The fanatics then persuaded them
selves that the images of the saints
were scowling and sweating with rage,
so tearing out their own tresses they
began washing and polishing the faces
of the statues.
About 300 lshermen, whose calling is
languishing because of the general
prohibition against the sale and con,
sumption of fish, came upon the scene
and turned the Red Cross out of the
building. Some ascended the belfry
and set all the bells ringing violently.
In a few minutes practically the whole
of the population assembled eager for
the opportunity of attacking the local
authorities for their vexatious cholera
measures.
Reinforcements arrived, and pitt
less hail of stones and missiles of
divers kinds was hurled upon the heads
of the soldiers from the upper windows
and balconies of the adjacent streets.
Once inside the cathedral they were
confronted by a mob armed with dag
gers and reyolVerS. During a fright
full display of barbarity that ensued
one man was thrust through with a
bayonet, and there was pool Of blood
at the foot of the high altar.
The edif1ce resounded with the roar
of firearms and the piercing shrieks of
the fanatical throng Besides casual
ties among the civilians, a number of
soldiers fell wounded with bullets and
knife thrusts in various parts of the
church. The populace were left in un-
disputed possession.

CALIFORNIA RED MEN AID
INDIAN STATUE MOVEMENT
Memorial to AborigineS Is to Be
Erected in N. Y. Harbor
Especial 20 The Herald)


WASHINGTON, Nov 27.-The Red
Men of California are giving active
support to the movement to erect a gil
gantic memorial to the American In
dian in New York harbor, and many of
the most prominent tribes in the states
have passed resolutions supporting the
project and pledging their active CO.
operation with Rodman Wanamaker of
Philadelphia, with whom the idea of a
memorial to the vanishing race"
originated.
The bill providing for this memorial
at the entrance of the nation was in
troduced in the house of representa-
tives at the last session of congress by
Joseph c. Goulden of New York and
was reported favorably from the COM
mittee on library, to which it was re-
ferred. At the same time a similar
bill was introduced in the senate by
Senator Depew. These bills provide for
no congressional appropriation, simply
authorizing the secretary of war and
the secretary of the navy to designate
suitable site on some government
reservation in New York harbor for the
erection of statue to commemorate
the North American Indian, funds to
be furnished by Rodman Wanamaker
and others.
Mr.. Wanamaker's original idea was
to contribute all the funds necessary
himself, but it is the general opinion
of those interested in the project that
this monument should be the gift of
the entire country and that those who
desire to participate, particularly the
various tribes of Red Men throughout
the country, should be allowed to do
so. AS soon as the bill is enacted into
law, which is expected early in the
he fob 20
give all who desire an opportunity to
contribute.
