The Most Costly Labor War in the Aauals of the World The Hoary Losses to , Life, and Injury to Persons. A Bloody Combat. Chicago, July 16. The great strikte has been the most costly in the history of labor troubles in America. Now that the railroads - are gretting- their traffic in shape and business is as- j suming- its normal condition, some spec- i ulation as to the cost to the railroads and others in Chicago alone may be in-! teresting. All the general manag-ers committee Bay at present they have not sufficient data to hazard an option that could be relied upon. Urged to make a guess one of them last night said the losses of the roads would reach at least 5,000. 000 and might go to as high as $6,000, 000. He declined to permit the use of his name, however, as the father of the random j opinion. It will probably be many weeks be fore the managers can secure figures for a detailed report. Many things must be taken into consideration'. The loss occasioned by suspended traffic will be the largest item, but the des truction of property will be by no means a small one. Lost By Fire. Nearly 600 Pan Handle cars were des troyed in one blaze and of this number 98 are now known to have contained merchandise. It will be necessary to learn from the shippers invoices just what those 98 cars contained before any computation of loss can le made and that will take much time. Within the city limits tower hduscs have been burned and tracks torn up. Damage has been done in many railroad shops and enormous sums expended in de fending the roads against rioters. General Manager St. John, of the Rock Island said yesterday that the to tal losses to his company over their en tire line would probably be not far from $1,000,000. Counsel for many of the railroads are already at work drawing up claims for financial redress from the county of Cook and the city of Chicago, but fig urea are hard to get at. Concerted action on this, line will be taken by the general managers . at an early date. i As an Outcome of the Strike. As an outcome of the strike and its disastrous effect upon the interest of the commission of the South Water street, the South Water street commer cial club has called a meeting to formu late a plan of action in regard to claims against the railroad companies. A committee has been appointed to have present at the meeting all actual deal ers and receivers, shippers, brokers, eold storage and railroad men interest ed in the trade and the1 claims. It is estimated on the street that the claims will aggregate $500,000. and the losses of the commission men directly and in directly wbuld not be a cent less than $1,500,000. The effect on the California fruit trade has been most disastrous. The first car of California fruit to move eastward in twelve days started yes terday. In the four days preceding the fourth of July there were ninety cars of bananas en route to Chicago, a large portion of which never reached here. Another great cause of lose was that outside shippers got the idea that there was going to be a famine here and they began to rash in perishable freight that never reached Chicago dealers and 1 ! Thursday evening a negro about six which is now scattered all over coun- teen years of age, attempted to commit try a dead loss. Losses of Life and Personal Injury. While the list of casualties resulting In the losses of life and personal Injury, directly chargeable to the strike and consequent riot6, is . not so exten sive as a casual reader of the newspa wrs would sunDose. however, the num ber of victims is large enough to make , a very serious showing. . In Chicago and vicinity, including Haramon, eight; ; and indirectly ten lives were lost, the yictims being killed Outright or after- ' ward dying of their injuries, while the number of wounded, as far as reported, was fortyone. Two ranroad accidents occurred, probably ahargeable to the incompetency of green men employed to take the places of strikers, by which two lives were lost and four persons injured- - TROOPS MOVE IN KANSAS Temporary (Jujct IfpKtored In the Cherokee Strip Trains (tanning .igam.

THE WEEK irJ UOrfuRESS Debating the Measure for a Uni form System of Bankruptcy. i PEER'S PROGRAM IN BOTH BRANCHES. r ( In the Senate Closing Touches are Ucing Given the Appropriation Matters. Conference Report on the Tariff Other Questions. . . Wasiiixgtox, July 18. The mana gers of the house think they now see daylight, and that so far as measures of general interest and importance are concerned the present week will put them all out of the way. Today will be given to the consideration of Repre sentative Uaily's bill for a uniform sys tem of bankruptcy, the vote on its pas sage to be taken at 4:30 o'clock. By the terms of the order agreed upon, one hour will be devoted to general debate and two hours to debate on proposed amendments under the five minute rule. In the ease the bill is out of the way in time, the judiciary committee will be recognized before adjournment, so that it will have all of tomorrow's session for the discussion of measures reported from it. Nine bills have been selected by the committee for presentation but manifestly it wll be impossible to con sider them all. One of these; which is considered of much importance, is that to establish a system of salaries for the marshals, clerks and attorneys of the United States courts and abolishing the practice of paying fees. The bill is in some sense an outcome of the investi gation of the reported abuses by offi cials of the United States courts in Massachusetts and Alabama. - - Military Affairs on Wednesday. Wednesday will be given tp the com mittee on military affairs to clear tha important bills the passage of which j it hii recommended. This is as far as I the committee on rules has disposed of , the. week, but the probabilities are lie fore the week closes, the bill to amend the interstate commerce act so as to ; permit the railroads to arrange freight and passenger pools, will be called. Considerable opposition to the bill has been expressed and several applications made to the committee on rules not to let it have a day until next session. Hut the expediency and justice of the proposition are recognized by the man agers and they says it shall have con sideration. Unless the friends of the measure will consent to strike out the provision permitting appeals to be taken from the ruling of the interstate com merce commission it is doubtful that the bill will pass. , ' Closing: in Appropriations. The senate has made such rapid pro" gress with the appropriation bills it is quite possible the close of the week trill see all the departments of the govern ment provided dor the present fiscal year. Vv"hen this result has been ac complished the minority will occ.ipy' a position of singular advantage ;;n re gard to the conference report on tho tariff. Should those features of th house bill which the "conservative" democrats and the republicans most ob ject be reinstated in the conference re port it will be in their power to say: '"Well, now, gentlemen, we are quite ready to vote to adjourn or , stay here and discuss this matter till the 4th of next March, if need be and there is no rule by which you can shut off debate, or compel the adoption of a conference report which does not concede some thing to our views."

Well, I am the gentleman spoken of and he is responsible for the charges., And for this came the warrant for forgery- Michelson succeeded' in evading ar rest until Saturday. When arrested he asked to be taken to the hotel until he could secure bondsmen. The offieer granted his request and Michelson was locked in a room. During the night' he managed to escape by sliding down a post from the second story. .Michelson went to the . house of a woman from whom he procured a dress, and, putting it on, attempted to escape. The sheriff however, had received information as to Michelson's disguise and arrested him early yesterday as he 'was leaving' the town. Michelson came to Madison several years ago from South Carolina, claim to be a count and that his father was once mayor of St. Petersburg, Russia. He dressed handsomely, had good ad dress and was most entertaining, and being introduced by one of Madison's proinindfft young gentlemen, who saw him.jjSouth Carolina, he was well re ceived by the first families here and was considerably lionized. In a few months a rumor came that Mr. Michel eon had a wife In South Carolina, and that he had been a convict in the peni tentiary of that state. But notwith standing all this, the people of this county elected him to represent them in the legislature. FOREST FIRES' FATAL SWEEP.

Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report AD3ILIU4ffEiOT E3JDE , . A Mexican Ranch. Some months ago the American Baptist Publication Society offered $500 for the best story embodying the principle of the obligation resting upon those who v possess to give to those who lack. Mrs. Janie Pritchard Duggan, of Wake Forest, who has spent some years in Mexico as a Missionary, sent in a manuscript for consideration. The judges de cided that Mrs. Duggan was entitled to the prize. " - So much merit, was discovered in the story that it was decided to pub lish it and let it circulate among the people at large. We have received a copy it. The book is nicely bound and contains 377 pages oi good type and paper. We enjoyed reading it and desire to commend it most highly to the reading public. As its name indicates, a Mexican Ranch, the scene of the story is laid m Mexico. It records the story of the life of a young woman, who was moved by a sense of duty, to go to Mexico as a missionary to the ill taught Romanists of that country. The story is told in an easy, graphic style how the y oung missionary found friends among strangers who stood by her when dangers came, how she struggled on amid discouragements and actual perils until her labor was abundantly blessed at last. Asa literary work it, oi course, cannorank with the best novelists of the language; but being limited to a particular theme, as it is, and circum- scribed in its bearines bv the reauire- ments of the publishers, as it was, and being hurriedly written we think that it is decidedly meritorious. It is calculated to benefit the reader, : and that is, in our judgement one of the surest tests to apply to a book in de ciding its value. .
