Against "Dry" Amendments.

Minnesota Federation Resolution 10
Against "Dry" Amendments.
The State Federation of Labor, in
session at Duluth, decided that it does
not want national or state prohibi-
ton or county option. No mention
was made of local option, the original
resolution being changed so that advo-
cacy of that phase of temperance
would be excluded. Debate lasted for
several hours.
The contention of William E. Nc
Even that action on such resolution
put the federation into politics was
answered by the declaration that the
question of prohibition was economic
and not political and that, therefore,
the federation was within it's prov.
ince in acting on it. The vote, which
was standing, was close.
A resolution was introduced to have
the legislative board accept nothing
less than a SO minimum wage for
women. This, however, was changed,
and the resolution as passed instruct
ed the legislative board to work to-
ward that end.

SOLDIERS FIRE
ON VOLUNTEERS
Three Men and One Woman
Killed in Dublin Riot.

Dublin, July 27.-Three men and
one woman are dead and more than
sixty persons are in the hospital
wounded as the result of a battalion
OF the Kings Own Scottish Borderers
firing into mob in the streets of
Dublin. Seven of the wounded prob.
ably will die. Among them are three
women and a boy of ten.
The ARRAY was the result of a gun
running exploit of the Nationalist
volunteers, who were being aided by
mob composed largely of women
and youths.
A consignment of rifles, said to
number 10000, was landed at Howth,
nine miles from Dublin, from a pri-
vate yacht. The Nationalist volun-
teers cut the wires and stopped travel
On the Dublin roads and, according to
reports, sent away most of the rifles,
together with 10000 rounds of ammu-
milton, in motor cars.
A battalion of the Kings Own Scot
fish Borderers was ordered to capture
the arms when the authorities heard
the volunteers were bringing them to
the city. The soldiers encountered
detachment Of volunteers at Clonwell
bridge and an outbreak resulted, but
there was no shooting. Soon great
crowd collected and followed the
troops, jeering them and cheering for
John Redmond, the Nationalist leader,
and home rule. Finally the mob be-
gan throwing bottles and stones, in
juring several soldiers.
To this attack the battalion replied
with scattering fusillade. In an in
slant the street was covered with
wounded, while terrified men, women
and children ran in all directions.
St. Juras' hospital is situated only
200 yards from the scene of the af-
fray and the wounded were quickly
taken there, where four Of them died.
The arms were landed from a sail
ing vessel, the name of which had
been painted over. A woman, or
man in woman's clothing, some per-
sons say, commanded the yacht.

red, according to rumor from Semlin
that reached Vienna. The battle is
said to have taken place near Semen
dria on the Danube, twenty-four miles
southeast of Belgrade, but no details
of the engagement were contained In
the message.
The prospect of war is not regarded
here as child's play. The Servians
put 100000 men into the field during
the Balkan wars. Both officers and
men are passionately patriotic.
1t is expected that Servia will at
tempt to hold the front along the
Danube and the Drina with only a
weak force, while the greater part of
the army will be concentrated in the
central district, probably near Nish or
Kraguyevetz, and another strong
force in NovipaZar, which will be
destined for offensive operations
against Bosnia.
No declaration of war has been is
sued and it is believed that none will
be, since Servia never subscribed to
of his passports to the Servian minis
ter, M. Jovanovitch, by the Austrian
foreign office, however, Is deemed
equivalent to declaration of war. This
action was taken. M. Jovanovitch
will leave Immediately. In his alb.
sence the Russian ambassador will

There we're patriotic demonstra.
tons, although heavy rain was fall

A general mobilization in Montene-
gro is reported. Proclamations have
been posted ordering partial mobiliza-
ton.
Italy has informed Austria that in
event of armed conflict with Servia
she will adopt friendly attitude in
accordance with her relations with
the triple alliance.
The Neue Freie Presse says the
minister of finance will raise SIS, 000,-
900 for the government and adds that
negotiations between the powers for
the localization of the conflict will
continue. In diplomatic circles there
is feeling of optimism that these ne
gotiations will be successful and it
was said by one diplomat that France
has no intention to expose herself too
much on Servia's behalf"
The imperial decree issued gives
the government enormous powers to
ensure the secrecy Of it's measures.
The authorities are entitled to open
all letters. Only kilograms approved
by the censor can be dispatched to
any point. Newspapers publishing de-
tails of military preparations or move

The Belgrade garrison completed
