cycle riders, a business session OF
the organization and an entertain
ment in the evening. Racing will
probably begin on Friday. On satur'
day and Sunday the races will con-
tinue at the motordomo, the visitors
leaving Sunday night. The races are
expected to be faster and more speta-
cular than any ever held by the Fed
Grafton; at the same time they Will
be conducted with the minimum OF
, risk, since the board track eliminates
many of the dangerous features Of
the fat dirt track. National cham
pionships will be determined and the
best riders in the country will partici
pate in the races. One of the big
features of the meet was the fou

LENGTH OF IMPROVEMENTS

Washington Cor. Boston Advertiser.
There being a strong desire on the
part of some men in Washington to
act at once in so far as the Senate
is concerned on the impeachment OF
Judge Archibald, it is well to know
how long the other eight impeach-
ment trials before the Senate have
lasted to get some cue how long the
Archibald one might be expected to
last.
The first impeachment was that Of
Senator, William Blount OF Tennes
see, which lasted from December IL
1898, to January IA, 1893, and nigh
have lasted longer If Blount had no
/ resigned, and. therefore, compelled
dismissal Of the charges for lack Q
Jurisdiction.

of Judge Pickering, of the United
States District Court for the District
of New Hampshire. His impeachment
trial lasted from March 8, 1903, to
March IL, 1904, more than year. He
was found guilty.
Samuel Chase, an associate Of the
Supreme Court, was tried on impeach-
ment from November 80, 1904 to
March 1, 1906. He was acquitted.
James H, Peck, United States Dis
trict Judge for Missouri, was next
tried after impeachment, the trial last
ing from April 26, 1880 to January 81.
1881. Acquitted
West H. Humphreys, of the United
States District Court for Tennessee,
was next tried on impeachment, the
trial lasting from May 4, 1852, to June
26, 1862. He was removed from office.
This is the shortest Impeachment on
record
The trial of the impeachment OF
President Johnson lasted from Febru
airy %, 1868, to May 2e, 1868.
William w. Belknap, Secretary Of
War in the Cabinet of President Grant
was next impeached, the only Cabine
official ever to be impeached, and hi
trial in the Senate lasted from Marcl
8, 1876, to August L of that year. HI
was acquitted.
The last Impeachment was that o
United States District Judge Swayne
of Florida, his trial lasting from d.
cember IA, 1904, to February 81, 1901
e There was an acquittal.

POLICE BREAK Up
STRIKE MEETINGS
Forced Leaders to Stop Speak
ing in Streets.

The police of Homestead, near Pitts
burgh, Pa, broke up street meetings
Of striking steel workers and their
sympathizers.
Agents and orators of the Industrial
Workers Of the World addressed the
crowds of hundreds of idle workmen
and urged men in all crafts to walk
out and organize general strike.
The United States Steel Corporation
tried to resume work at the Home
stead and Edgar Thomson plants, but
with little success. The fires were
banked for the usual Sunday lay-off,
but President A. G. Dinkey, of the
Carnegie Steel company, announced
that the mills would be in operation
Sunday night, despite the strike Of
900 trainmen, whose idleness has
stopped operations in the biggest steel
plant in America for more than a
week.
A meeting of the men was held in
Homestead. They voted unanimously
to continue the strike until the com
pany reinstates four yard trainmasters
and grants an advance of 20 cents a
day in wages.
Ninety men, who were brought in
as strike breakers, came out of the
stockade. The strangers said they had
quit.
The imported men are sleeping in
the mill hospital building and are not
permitted to go outside the stockade
because of the company's fear of trou.
