LATE TELEGRAPH NEWS

Liverpool, Dec. 21.-There has
been much dissatisfaction of late up
on the part of cotton wrkers. They
have been making demands and
threats to strike, many in various
sections having left their work. The
operators have now taken the mat
ter into their hands and threaten a
lockout after Christmas, that will
affect 100000 operatives unless
they all return to work and con-
tinue under terms that have hereto
fore prevailed.
Cloudsport, Pa. Dec. 22.-George
C. Bayless and Fred A. Hamlin, pres
ident and secretary respectively, of
the company that owned the Austin
dam, have been indicted for invol-
untary manslaughter. The relatives
of the dead victims hold the company
responsible for the disastrous flood.

thought that the man who was shot
yesterday by policeman Hewston was
desperate known as the Tacoma
Kid" 1t develops, however, that
the man is Frank Ryan, rep

since died and it is believed that his
relatives will bring action against
the policeman.
Shanghai, Dec. 22.-The Premier,
who wired yesterday that he would
not consent to republic has evil

leaders they stated that they were
willing to take the question up on

woman who came to this country in
1907 to study our methods of pre-
venting tuberculosis and the social
evil, left bill Of 500 owing to the
Hotel Wellington when she died
there there ON March 10. Her un-
fortunate financial condition at the
time of her death, unfriended and
alone, became known when it was
announced today by the attorney for
the hotel that all Madame Fielder's
effects would be sold to satisfy the
hotels lien. Madame Fielder was
mucn entertained by new York So
ciety. She had long conferences
with both President Roosevelt and
President Taft. and her position was
even further dignified by the fact
that she represented the French gov
eminent. When she died her body
would have been buried in Potter's
field had not Miss Morgan inter
vened.
