Oyster Bay, N. Y. July 15.--Forma-
ton of distinct and independent
party, and not the capture of the Re-

night. He took issue fatty with sup
porters of his who had advanced
proposal for effecting an agreement
with the Republican organization in
some states. through which. under GER
tain conditions. the strength of the
Roosevelt following might be thrown
behind President Taft. The colonel
will have none of It,
Il shall not acquiesce," he said
Colonel Roosevelt made it clear he.
had decided upon a thorough going
fight, independent of alliance with
either party. which will put him in a
position to appeal to Democrats as
well as Republicans. In states In
which his followers have control of
the Republican organization. he is
ready to carry on his campaign
through that medium as he would do
through the Democratic party, he SAIL
If similar situation should develop
within that party. But he will sane
ton no compromise.

I'm certain primary states, as | un-
derstand. there is no contest on in the
primaries to see whether my name or
that of Mr.. Taft shall be put on the
regular ticket instead of being nomi-
mated by petition 1t being the inten-
tion of the party beaten in the print
airy to nominate its electors by petit
ton, This is all right and proper:
but so far as / have any say in the
matter / shall not assent to any arr
rangement by which under any cir
cumstances by supporters or electors
supported by them shall cast their
votes for Mr.. Taft"
Colonel Roosevelt said he was per-
fectly willing TO have the same cleo

National Progressive tickets. so long
as his supporters did not agree that
the entire electoral vote of state

publican ticket should receive the
greater number of votes.

indication that the operatives look for
a long drawn-out struggle.
Arrangements were made by the In

partnents of the mills were kept in
operation with somewhat depleted
forces. In addition to the weayers,
looInfixers and Industrial Workers OPP
eratises, the unskilled laborers employ
cd in the weave sheds left their ma
chimes.
The grading system to which the
weavers object provided different
prices to be paid to the weavers for
different qualities of work done. That
is, ii cut of cloth in which imperfec-
lions of weave appear. would not be
paid for at as high rate as a cut
that was perfect. In order to satisfy
the operatives that the companies did
not benefit by paying a lower price for
second quality goods, the corporations
agreed to keep account of the differ
enee in price paid to the weavers and,
every six months. divide this difference
among all weavers who had been en-
ployed in the mills for three months.
The manufacturers claimed that they
could not pay first quality prices for
second quality work, saying that since
the abolition of the fines system the
amount of seconds had increased great
ly. The weavers contended that the
grading system worked them grave in
justice and materially reduced their
earnings.
The idle operatives appeared on the
streets in such force, today, that the
city took ON a holiday aspect. There
was absolutely no disturbance of any
kind and the extra police stationed at
the r2ill gates had no trouble in main
tanning order.

LOSS OF THE TITANIC.

New York, April 19.-The Iii tanic disaster will be written into history by many of the 745 sur VivOrS accounts for the loss of 1889 persons at sea off the New Foundland Banks early Monday and the subsequent death of six who were rescued, bringing the total number of lives lost to 1595. Thes figures make the disaster the greatest in ocean travel ever known.
 The big facts which come to the surface from the flood of naritatives are that 1895 persons met death with hardly shadow of hope that this grand total will be curtailed by single addition al survivors. Several men of wealth and of world wide pro- minence were among those who perished. Practically the only women not saved were those who chose to die in their hus- bands embrace.
 The Titanic struck an iceberg about 90 feet high which ripped the liners sides open and made the watertight compartment ts useless and while the vessel was gradually sinking the icy waters reached the SteaminG boilers causing an explosion which sent her to the bottom.
