Liverpool, June 14-This was the
first of the big British ports to feel
the effect of the general strike order
issued to the union sedmen to enforce
the ultimatum served on the shipping
federation some time ago.
The crews of the Teutonic and the
Empress of Ireland abandoned their
vessels today, and the ships are now
tied up unable to sail on schedule.
The crews of a number of tramp
liners followed the example of the men
on the big American liners.
Officers of the union say that as fast
as the big liners come in the men will
complete the trip for which they have
signed so that the steamers, whose
home port this is, will not be inter-
fered elsewhere.
Officials in charge of the strike here
today said that the majority of the
dock employees and longshoremen also
will take advantage of the opportun-
ity to demand better wages and i'm
proved conditions Of labor
Officials of the various lines are
making preparations to ship strike
breakers. The union men say they
will not oppose this as the employees
cannot get competent men and pas
sergers will not risk their lives sail
ing in vessels manned by incompe-
tents.
The strikers were greatly cheered
with the announcement a few hours
after the strike began, that a number
of the big shipping firms had notified
'union headquarters that they were
willing to receive committees from the

Herman Stenseth, district clerk of
Ramsey county, produced the court
records and disproved the testimony of
Monroe Branclf1ower to the effect that
Judge Cowan entered the court room
one morning in an apparently intoxi-
Gated condition and adjourned court
without reason.
The records showed that no recess
had been taken except for Sunday and
for Lincoln's birthday.
r. A. Stewart of Minnewaukon, be-
ing recalled, said he had practiced for
ten years before the judge and had
never seen him intoxicated.

and storm blew up in the darkness,
Many who lived near the lake heard
their cries of distress for a long time
beiore their boat sank and large
groups gathered on the shore.
This was one of the most pitiful
scenes that has ever been enacted in
the whole of North Dakota. Every
one knew there was little hope for the
young men and their friends STAYED on
the shore all night. trying in vain to
launch rescue boats that were driven
back by the high wind. e[7.

Italian jury Baking,

Viterbo, Italy. April 26.-The trial Of
the Camorrists has been adjourned
until Monday because of the illness of
a juror who failed to appear when the
session was to have been resumed to-
day.
1t is reported that the trial may be
transferred to some other city be-
cause of dissatisfaction on the part
of the jury. Early in the proceedings
the members petitioned the court for
an increase in the fees allowed them,
but no response to their request has
been made.
Accordingly. it is said, they are in
clined to use obstructive measures.
If one after the other is taken sick no
further progress can be made under
the present circumstances.

The Two Hundred Mile Stretch Now
Under Construction viii Connect
With Five Of the Big
Systems.

Farg0.-A Chicago paper contains a
brief sketch of the prospects and work
already done by the Midland Conti-
mental road. The proposed reciprocity
trade agreement with Canada has al
ready been the means of giving fresh
impetus, says the Examiner, to the
ambitious project undertaken by a
number of Chicago capitalists to build
q railroad from Winnipeg to the Gulf
of Mexico. Reovanl Of tariff barriers
had not been counted on when con-
struction work was begun on the Mid
land Transcontinetal railroad in North
Dakota last year and if reciprocity be-
comes fact one of it's effects, it is
expected, will be to hasten the devel-
opment of the new north and south
line.
A list of officers of the railroad. is
given. also a partial stockholders list,
showing the names to be some of the
most prominent capitalists and bust
ness men of Chicago. 1t is stated that
the construction work on the grade
already completed between jamestown
and Edgeley will he finished this sum-
mer. A stretch of 212 miles from
Edgeley to Pembina, for g. connection
with the Canadian Northern into Win
nipeg, will be the first portion of work
done on the road to Galveston.
The 212 mile section now under
struction will connect with five big
lines-the st. Paul. Northern Pacific,
500. Great Northern and Canadian
Northern.
Officers of the construction company
say that the project is independent Ut
any Of the big systems and that it is
the aim to keep it so, or the heory
that only through neutrality can the
new line get the fullest cooperation of
the east and west roads.
1t is reported that the comany has
purchased the rails for the line be-
tween Edgeley and Jamestown.
