SHEA UNDER ARREST
Presidtni of International Teamsters
up on Charge el Criminal Libel.
REFUSED TERMS OF EMPLOYERS.
Twenty Policemen Fight With Angry
Crowd of 1,500, Two Officers Being
Nearly Killed and a 12-Year-Old
Boy Was Shot.
Chicago, 111., June (i. — Cornelius
P. Shea, president of the Internation-
al Brotherhood of Teamsters, was ar-
rested on a charge of criminal libel,
preferred by Robert J. Thorne, assist-
ant general managed of Montgomery
Ward & Co.
Shea was arrested on a capias Is-
sued by Judge S. H. Bethea, of the
Tlniled States, district court, follow-
ing the filing of a suit by Thorn, who,
in addition to making the charge of
criminal libel, asks for damages to
the amount of $25,000 from Shea.
The suit is based on interviews given
out by President Shea to the news-
papers and on statements he is said
to have made to the effect that he had
been offered $10,000 by M. Thorne to
call a strike against Sears, Roebuck
& Co. Shea made the assertions
against Thorne before the county
grand jury, in addition to making
them to newspaper men, and after
making them Insisted, it is said, upon
their accuracy.
Mr. Thorne denies all the alleged
statements of President Shea, and in
his bill declares that his standing and
reputation as a business man have
been injured by the assertions of
President Shea. Shea gave $5,000
bonds and was released.
Albert Young, former president of
the National Teamsters’ Union, was
sued today by Albert J. Thorne in the
supreme court for $25,000 damages for
alleged slander and criminal libel, the
bill of complaint being similar to that
against Shea.
The agreement of the teamsters to
idfer to the truck drivers’ union the
question of arbitrating the matter of
deliveries to boycotted houses was
hailed by Mayor Dunne and the mem-
bers of the Team Owners’ Association
as a sign of returning peace. The
meeting of the truck drivers will be
held Tuesday night. Not a large por-
tion of the business of the truck driv-
ers is done with the express com-
panies. and a vote by them to make
deliveries to the boycotted houses
will virtually mean the end of the
strike, although no formal order is
issued calling it off.
Twenty policemen fought with a
crowd of 1,500 persons at Eighteenth
street and Center avenue for twenty
minutes, two officers being nearly kill-
ed by attacks.
The rioting at this point was follow-
ed almost immediately by another dis-
itirbance in the vicinity, in which a
12-year-old boy was shot.
At a conference between Attorney
Mayer and the Teamsters’ committee
the men were informed that the terms
of the employers announced several
weeks ago would not be modified. The
Teamsters’ joint council decided to
refuse the terms of the employers and
to continue the strike.
Eminent Statesman Dying.
Madrid, May 31.—Don Sanfrancis-
co Sylva, the eminent statesman and
former Spanish premier, is dying.
Ill Concealed Joy.
Warsaw, May 31.—The news of the
Russian naval defeat has been receiv-
ed here with ill concealed joy.
EARTHQUAKES IN JAPAN.
NOTABLE DISCOVERIES MADE.
Relict of the Mound Builder* Are the
Finest Yet Discovered.
Bloomington. 111., June 6.—Notable
discoveries of relics of the Mound
Builders have been made by N. D.
McEvers near Montezuma, on the Il-
linois river. In a mound SO foot in
height he excavated many implements
of war. with fully 1,250 discs of flint
each about 3 by 4 inches in size. Mr.
McEvers tunneled 30 or 40 feet in the
mound. Indications being promising,
he secured the presence of B. Bush-
nell, president of the Missouri State
Historical Society; Dr. McGee, presi-
dent of the Anthropological Society
of St. Louis, and others. Mr. Iiusli-
nell declared the relies the finest work
of the Mound Builders he has ever
seen.
IT HAS PROVOKED AMUSEMENT.
Saw Russian Vessels Sinking and Mis-
took Them For Japanese.
Toklo, June 0. — A telegram from
Vladivostok reporting the crew of the
Russian cruiser Almaz as saying that
they saw three Japanese warships
sunk, and the commander of the Al-
maz as saying that he personally
witnessed the sinking of a Japanese;
cruiser, has provoked amusement inj
official circles and elsewhere. A!
member of the naval staff lias suggest-
ed that it was probable that the Rus-
sians saw Russian vessels sinking and
in the confusion mistook them for
Japanese ships.
The foreign office and the navy de-
partment reaffirm that only three
torpedo boats were lost in the bat-
tle.
WILL ERECT LIGHTHOUSE.
To Commemorate Togo's Naval Vic-
tory Over Russian Fleet.
Tokio, June 5. — In response to
thousands of suggestions and inquir-
ies received, the navy department has
decided to erect an enormous light-
house on Okino Island as a monu-
ment to commemorate Admiral Togo's
great naval victory over the Russian
fleet in the battle of the Sea of
Japan.
It is planned to have the light show
for a distance of eighty miles, practi-
cally covering the entire scene of the
battle.
This plan has been adopted over
all others because the monument wiH
be near the scene of battle and stand
constantly in the si^ht and memory
of the officers anil men of the Japan-
ese navy and will also be a great con-
venience to navigation. If there
should he a future war it will prevent
disasters similar to those which over-
took the transports Hitachi and
Sado.
PEACE STORY IS SENSATIONAL.
Ambassador to France Has Departed
Pest Haste For Home.
St. Petersburg, June 3.—An even
ing paper printed a sensational story
from a Paris correspondent saying he
was in a position to state that after
the passage of many telegrams last
night between the French foreign of-
fice arid the French embassy here, M.
Bompard, the French ambassador, is
returning hastily to St. Petersburg
from Paris at the request of Russia to
arrange for peace negotiations, France
having agreed, if Japan's terms are
too onerous, to undertake to ask the
concert of all the powers to compel
both powers to mediate.
At both the foreign office and the
French embassy the story was de-
nied, but there is reason to believe
that M. Bompard is bringing a direct
message from Foreign Minister Del-
easse urging Russia to make peace
SOUTHERN FLOOD SITUATION.
Extent of Damage and Loss of Life
Are Probably Heavy.
Tokio, June 5.—Severe earthquakes
have occurred In central Japan, ex-
tending generally from the province
of Hiroshima to the, Straits of Shimo-
nosokl. The extent of the damage and
loss of life are not yet known, but it is
feared that they are heavy,
HOISTED THE WHITE FLAG.
Remarkable Story is Told About the
Russian Marines.
New York, June 5.—Details from a
trustworthy source leave little room
for doubt says a Times dispatch from
8t Petersburg, that Admiral Nebo-
gatoff's asllors mutinied in the bat-
tle of the Sea of Japan ami either
threw the ndmirnl and many officers
overboard or, according to another
version, bound them In their cabins
and hoisted the white flag.
Eight men In Nehagotoff's squadron
were, II Is again asserted, hanged for
mutiny while still In the Red Sea.
Are Making Inquiries.
Pnris, June 3.—A member of. the
gang of Spanish anarchists arrested
has denottneed a compatriot uamed
Mnnu as the author of (lie oulrago on
King Alfonso. The police possess a
description of Monti and are making
'nqutries regarding him.
Wounded Russian* Ashore.
Loudon, June 5. — A special from
Kobe, Japan, says that hundreds of
the Russians, many of them badly
wounded, are coming ashore at Yama-
\mxrhi on the coast of Japan.
Water Is Several Feet Higher anc
Tracks Are Washed Out.
El Paso, Tex., June 5. — The Rio
Grande flood situation grows worse
each day. Today the water is several
feet higher north of here and several
hundred yards of tracks on the Santa
Fe railroad between El Paso and
Albuquerque have been washed out.
All traffic from here is being divert-
ed over the Southern Pacific to Dem-
Ing.
The town of Le Mesa, on the oppo-
site bank of the Rio Grande river, Is
under seven feet of water, but no loss
of life there is reported. The rise of
the river was gradual and the people
of the town had an opportunity to
escape the flood. Anthony, another
small (own, was completely washed
away, hut here, niso, the people were
warned of tho danger and vacated
their homes in time. The river
threatens to change Its course five
miles below El Paso and it Is possible
that further great damage will ro-
suit.
Assassin Captured.
Baku, May 29.—The ntau who as-
saslnated Prince Nakaehldez, govern-
or of Baku, by throwing a bomb at his
carriage, was arrested at the Hart Is

Tokio, June 3.—Admirals Yantamo-
o and Itn, responding t« the emper
or's rescript thanking tho navy for
tts victory, express their thanks on
behalf of the navy department and
pledge the navy to a faithful dlschnrge

EVOKES GREATEST INTEREST.
All London is Discussing Preeident
Roosevelt's Action.
l,on(ion, June 5. — The conference
between President Roosevelt and
Count Cassini, the Russian ambassa-
dor to the United States evokes the;
greatest interest here, hut the details
of what transpired at the conference
arrived too late to be tho subject of
discussion in this morning's newspa-
pers.
The belief in Loudon is that at the
present moment neither belligerent is
anxious for peace. Some advices j
from Tokio indicate the soberness
with which the news of Togo’s vie-'
tory was received as a desire to avoid
peace negotiations until the expedi-
tion in course of const ruction has
bail time to reduce Vladivostok.
With regard to Russia, it is felt
here that the, mere sense of tho enor-
mous loss of prestige involved in the
disastrous defeat of Rojestvensky will
determine hostilities.
Secretary Lansdowne of the for-
eign office will gladly second Presi-
dent Roosevelt’s efforts in the di-
rection of peace. The secretary al
ready has had interviews with the
Russian ambassador to Great Britain,
Count Benskendorff, according to
rumor, at the behest of King Edward,
In which he intimated to the ambassa-
dor his majesty’s willingness to offer
Washington, June G.—Shortly after
9 o’clock tonight Gorgoro Takabira,
tlio Japanese minister, called at the
White House by appointment. He
was immediately received by the
president and a conference ensued.
Following so closely the visit of Count
Cassini it was naturally inferred that
the president took occasion to com-
municate to Mr. Takahira the views
of Russia as presented by Count Cas-
sini at the conference with him re-
cently. Whether the visit had to do
with the appearance of the three Rus-
sian ships at Manila could not be
learned. The minister returned from
New York only this afternoon.
Diplomatic activity in Washington
today indicates that the European
powers are prepared actively to as-
sist the president in any efforts he
may make in the interest of peace in
the far east, and it is learned tonight
on high authority that the German
emperor heartily shares the earnest
wish of President Roosevelt for an
early ending of the war. Neither the
president nor the emperor, however,
is ambitious to assume the role of
peacemaker, although anxious to do
what is possible to assist Russia and
Japan to enter upon peace negotia-
tions as soon as practicable. From
information received here it is believ-
ed that the king of Italy can be relied
on to cast his influence for peace, and
the long conference of Baron Mayor
des Planches, the Italian ambassador,
Saturday afternoon with Count Cas-
sini, after the latter’s call at the
White House, is but one of several
evidences of the king's envoy at
Washington in the interest of peace.
Sir Mortimer Durand, tho British am-
bassador, in a recent visit to the
White House placed the president in
possession of the views of King Ed-
ward, who would welcome an early
peace. The views of the French gov-
ernment are well known to be of a
similar character.
Several of the more prominent di-
plomats were enabled to cable their
governments last night the general
features of the conference between
the president and Count Cassini and
by today the whole diplomatic corps
was aware of the important words ut-
tered by the president and were specu-
lating on their effect in St. Peters-
burg.
! hit friendly assistance in arranging a
I peaceful settlement.
The peace group in the French capi-
tal, in a communication to n similar
group in the house of commons, urges
: that efforts bo made to promote peace
1 In the Far East.
Now that the details of the battle
are better known, the naval problems
j involved form a theme of general dis-
cussion with a view to the drawing of
I valuable lessons In naval warfare.
SHIPS IN COLLISION.
British Ship Comes in Contact With
Man-of-war.
London, Juno 6.—During a fog off
Dungeness yesterday morning the
British battleship Caesar collided w ith
the British bark Afghanistan. Tho
Afghanistan sank two minutes after
the collision. It is feared (hat twen-
ty-three men on board tho bark were
drowned, as only eleven of her crew
of 34 were picked up. The Afganis,
tan was bound from Hamburg for San
Diego and Portland, Ore.
At the time of tho accident the
channel fleet, steaming in two col-
umns. with the Caesar leading the
second column, suddenly entered a
fog bank and was unable to give the
signal to slow down.
Another disaster was narrowly
averted as the battleship Hannibal
shortly afterward found another ves-
sel and carried away her headgear.
For an hour this afternoon Baron
Von Steinberg, the German ambassa-
dor, was at the Russian ambassy dis-
cussing the situation with Count Cas-
sini. Thus far the latter has not heard
from his government anil advices from
Europe would seem to indlcato that
the Czar and his ministers have reach-
ed no definite decision as to their fu-
ture policy.
St. Petersburg.—The American em-
bassy was the center of Interest yes-
terday on account of President Roose-
velt’s tender of his good offices in the
direction of peace. Ambassador Mey-
er was besieged by members of the
diplomatic corps who desired light on
the president’s plans and intentions,
and the chances of its acceptance was
a topic of general interest in St. Pet-
ersburg. the public having been made
acquainted with Presdent Roosevelt's
talk with Count Cassini through the
afternoon papers.
Foreign Minister Lamsdorff did not
lay the matter before the emperor yes-
terday hut probably will visit Tsars-
koe-Selo Monday instead of Tuesday,
his regular audience day, for this pur-
pose.
Officials of the foreign offloe, al-
though expressing gratitude for the
peace tender by the United States,
adopted a non-committal tone regard-
ing the prospects of action on it, say-
ing the decision rested solely with the
emperor, who up to the present is
firm for war.
On all sides it is realized that the
question of indemnity will be the
greatest stumbling block in the way
of the efforts of the peace party. The
war faction urges that if Russia is
obliged to pay an enormous indem-
nity she might as well spend the same
amount ill continuing the war a year
or two longer, and trust to financial
pressure to do its work on Japan.
They say Russia’s situation could not
be made much worse.
In Manchuria the reinforcement of
Lieutenant General Llnevitch lias
been going on without a pause. A
traveler returning from Harbin re-
ports passing train after train filled
entirely with troops and with appar-
ently no esevists.
Y'esterday it was reported that
widespread mobilization was contem-
plated in order to give General Line-
vitch the necessary numerical su-
I periority over the Japaneso.
STRANGE FACTS ABOUT
OUR STREET RAILWAYS.
The Evolution From Horses to
Electricity—Troller Has Practically
Superseded All Other Systems.
Some facts of timely interest regard-
ing flic growth and present condition
of street railways in America are eon-
tallied in a special report recently is-
sued by tlie Dpartineut of Commerce
and Labor.
On the subject of flic growth of
street railways, the report livings out
the fact that the first passenger ear
ever constructed for t. street railway
was used in New York City in the third
decade of the lust century. Tills ear
was drawn by horses over strap rails
laid on stone ties. Improvements in-
troduced during tlie next forty years
were principally in details, lint tlie In-
troduction of tlie cable system In 1873
was a decided advance in motive
power. At tlie present time, however,
the use of tlie cable ear is confined al-
most exclusively to tlie cities of Chi-
cago, Sail Francisco and Kansas City,
while tlie trolley, which was not used
to any great extent prior to 1885, has
practically superseded all other sys-
tems.
The total number of passengers car-
ried in one year was 5,830,015,290, of
which 1,002,403,382, ou 18.2 per cent.,
were transfer passengers.
The average number of rides per In-
habitant advanced from thirty-two in
18!K) to sixty-three in 1902 for the
country as a whole, while the advance
of tlie urban population was from
ulnety-elght to 1458. The proportion of
rides to the total population is greatest
In the District of Oolumbla, where the
population is urban, and is next great-
est In Massachusetts, while New York
ranks third. California lias tlie high-
est proportion of rides to the urban
population.—Harper’s Weekly.
I A Free Dally Paper.
A free dally newspaper is published
in Detroit. If you want a copy every
day, you order it, like any other goods,
of your butcher or baker. If lie has
a contract with the publishers, he de-
livers the paper free of charge. There
were a hundred thousand subscribers
n month before publication. It has
plenty of telegraphic news, but as most
of its circulation will be in families,
much attention is given to the “daily
magazine” features. But perhaps the
“discount” or coupon is the most inter-
esting part of the new newspaper.
These coupons can be torn off and used
ns trading stamps. The publishers
have a shop where the coupons will he
exchanged for the wares in stock. Suc-
cessful unrlddlers of rebuses and rid-
dles in the advertising columns will be
rewarded liberally. Both coupons and
guessings are Intended, of course, to
quicken circulation. The paper is sold
In blocks of from twenty-five to twenty,
five hundred to retail tradesmen. The
proprietors have the town canvassed
thoroughly so as to give as much trade
as possible to the tradesmen who cir-
culate the paper. It Is n curious de-
parture or arrival In journalism. But
won't its renders be spoiled, won’t
free newspapers teach them to demand
free beefsteaks?
BinUnras la Business.
A story is told of a man in an Ar-
kansas town who, in addition to tits
being President of tlie local Board of
Aldermen, was also the proprietor of
the best hotel in the place.
It appears that a visitor from the
East one day remarked to tills man t hat
the town might be made a great deal
henithter if a certain large swamp near
by were drained.
“Wall,” drawled the politician and
hotel man, “all my boarders says the
same thing. In my persitlon as Presi-
dent of the Board of Aldermen I'd
sliorely advoeute the improvement in a
minute of it warn't for my son."
"Why,” exclaimed tlie Easterner in
surprise, “why should your sou ob-
ject?"
“W-a-ll, stranger,” replied tlie Arkan-
sas man, "lie runs the drug store.”—

CZAR FIRM FOR WAR;
NO DEFINITE DECISION
COUNT CASSINI’S VISIT
Washington, June 3. — Russia will
know officially how ready this gov-
ernment is to assist her In commenc-
ing peace negotiations with Jnpan at
the earliest possible moment, if Count
Cassini, the Russian ambassador, car-
rier out his Intention of seeing the
president tomorrow, planned calling
at the White House, and would have
asked for an appointment this after-
noon lint for the fact that the presi-
dent was engaged In (tyiening the

bassador sutd tonight that he hoped
to make an appointment for tomor-
row. Indirectly Count Cassini is al-
ready Informed of the willingness of
the president to take up tho question
of peace terms with Japun provided
Russia is prepared to discuss the sub-
ject In good faith, but unless he re-
reives Instructions from his govern-
ment between now and tho time he

Stockholm, May 29. — King Oscar
resumed the reins of government af-
ter his recent Illness during which the
crown prince Ousiave acted as re-
gent.
Japan at this time. It was suggested
that the failure to receive any advice
from St. Petersburg regarding the nt-
tltuda of the emperor was one rcnson
why Count Cassini has deferred his
call at the White House.
The whole situation was thorough-
ly discussed In an informal way by
Count Cassini with his warm person-
al friend, Baron Speck Von Stern-
berg. the German ambassador, who
dined at the Russian embassy to-
night after having had a conference
with the president early In the day.
Indicative of the importance of tlie
two conferences with the German
ambassador was the statement of the
Russian ambassador late tonight Hint
ho hoped to see the president wtUiin
the next 24 hours. Meantime It can
lie stated on the best authority that
the Washington government is bid-
ing lls time, believing that ltussin
must lie given time fully to realize
the crushing character of her defeat

the advisability of abandoning her

WHALES DEFEND THEIR YOUNG.-
Strong Affection Exists Among Levia-
thans of the Sea.
Whales—like so many other ani
male—are brave In defonse of their
little ones. A young whale was
once harpooned; its mother, in great
distress, came, and seizing hold of it,
dived with It to a considerable depth;
then she rose to the surface and dart-
ed this way and that, as If vainly seek-
ing for some other means of escape.
Though closely followed by the boats
she made no effort to get away her-
self; her sole thought was for her
child. At last she was harpooned, but
even then she clung to her little one
until, In the course of an hour, both
were dead. Two whales were once
swimming together, and one of them
was harpooned. The wounded ani-
mal, assisted by her friend, made a
terrible resistance, and sent a boat
with five men In It to tho bottom. At
length the Injured one died of her
wounds, when her companion, rather
than survive her, stretched his head
over her dead body and allowed him-
self to be killed.—'' Little Folks. ’ ’

"Ever since boyhood I have been
especially fond of meats, and I am
convinced I ate too rapidly, and failed
to masticate my food properly.
"The result wus that I found my-
self, a few years ago, afflicted with
aliments of the stomach and kidneys,
which interfered Berlously with my
business.
"At last I took the advice of friends
and began to eat Orape-Nuts Instead
of the heavy meats, etc., that had con-
stituted my former diet.
"I found that I was at once benefited
by the change, that 1 was soon reliev-
ed from the heart burn and the indi-
gestion that used to follow my meals,
that the pains In my back from my
kidney affection had ceased, showing
that those organs had been healed, and
that my nerves, which used to be un-
steady, and my brain, which was slow
and lethargic from a hoavy diet of
meats and greasy foods, had, not In a
moment, but gradually, und none the
leas surely, been restored to normal
efficiency. Now every nerve is steady
and my brain and thinking faculties
are quicker and more acute than for
years past.
