PERIL IN THE HAND-SHAKE. . Not long ago Dr. J. N. Hintch, of Chicago aaid: "The most delicate perfume upon the hand 4 is not a ign of freedom from germs, and the most refined are not free from dis ease of lutijj. or throat, and the germs are rapidly spread by touching the hand that has handled the handkerchief of one afflict cd with a cold, catarrh or consumption. The breath one inhales from the lungs of another may contain germs of disease." You will not only be able to resist the germs of consumption, but many thousands of cases have been known where persons who were suffering from incipient phthisis, or the early stages of consumption were absolutely cured by Dr. Tierce's Golden Medical Dis covery. It maintains a person's nutrition by enabling him to eat, retain, digest and assimilate food. It overcomes the gastric Irritability and symptoms of indigestion, and thus the person is saved from those symptoms of fever, night-sweats, headache, etc., which are so common. N ' An alterative extract like Dr. Fierce'! Golden Medical Discovery, made of roots and herbs, without the use of alcohol, will assist the stomach in assimilating or taking up from the food such elements as are required for the blood, will assist the liver In throwing off the poisons in the system. Do not permit some designing druggist to insult your intelligence by offering yon a remedy which he claims is "just as good " because he made it up himself, or ten chances to one you will get a medicine made up largely of alcohol, which will only weaken the system. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is heartly recommended by every person ( who has ever used it and it has stood the test of thirty-eight years of approval from people all over the United States.

Workloi Conditions st the I hlcsf o Yards loprovlsf Polish Batchers Desert the Strikers -A Blot Precipi tated Strike at St. Paul. By T01erph to Ue Morning Btar. Chicago, July 16. All chances of peace in the packers' strike has van qlihed for the time being, at least.The end of the negotiations came late to day after a conference which had lasted nearly all of the afternoon be tween the officials of the strike and a number of packers. A final break re sulted when the Union officials Insist ed that all the men who had gone out on strike be taken back and given their old places. The packers declared that this would necessitate the dis charge of all the men they had em ployed since the commencement of the strike, and that they could not and would not consider it The con ference then broke up .and the strike will continue. After the conference was over Mr. Donnelly said: "We ageeed to almost everything that they asked and insisted only on the reinstatement of our men. We would have been willing to wait a month If necessary If they would have agreed to take them back at some time. They would not agree to any thing on this point, except as stated In their letter, that they would take them as fast as they, needed them in the order In which they applied, and there wss nothing to do but break The packers Issued a statement alter the conference which, after announc ing that a conference was held, con cludes as follows: "After dlicasaion the packers' letter of July 14th was accepted by Mr. Don nelly, excepting the provision con talned therein that the men now out on strike should be taken back as fast as possible. Mr. Donnelly insisted that all of the men should be taken back within seven days. To this the packers objected, as it would involve the discharge of all men who have been employed to fill the strikers' places, which they could not and would not consider; wun me result that all negotiations were declared ended." Working conditions at the local yards were improved further to-day. Over 800 more men were put to work and distributed through the various plants. At Armour's plant over 1,000 hogs and nearly four hundred cattle were slaughtered. At Morris cc uom- pany's twenty-five more butchers were at work than the day before and 450 hozs were killed during the day. At Swift's the operations were increased considerably. A danger that confronts tne sincere became apparent to-day when they learned that over 200 Polish butchers have deserted them since the strike began. . The fact did not bscome known un til this morning, when every local union held meetings and punched the strike tickets of members. These tick eta must bs turned in every day in or der that the leaders may know that the members are not at work. Alter the un ions had met to day a large number of Polish butchers were discovered mist ing. Investigation revealed that they had returned to work. A Riot Precipitated. While the packers were preparing to act upon the latest message from toe strike leaders a riot was precipitated at west 43d street and Ashland avenue bv the arrival oflomnlbuses which carried stenographers to the office of Swift & Oompany, Nelson, Morris & Company and the Armour racking Company. Three men were injured by the blows of the officers' clubs. When the first vehicle was driven, un to the sidewalk where the young women were waiting tor It. a strike sympathiser rushed i from a saloon and stood directly in the path of the horses. The police commanded the man to move on. A crowd gathered and several policemen detailed at the posts near by hastened to the scene, drew their clubs and obarged the crowd, which gave way before them. The leaders retreated into a saloon and made their escape through a rear door. Many of the girls were so frightened that they sought refuge In the saloons which line Ashland avenue at this point only to be driven out by the threats of men drinking in the places. Most oi the young women were found and went on their way In the omnibuses. A Clsih at St. Paal. St. Paul, Mibn . July 18. The first clash between the sheriffs force at the striking butchers of Swift & Go's. plant at South St. Paul occurred to day when a spirited and partly suc cessful effort was made by the compa ny, assisted by Sheriff urlsim and deputies tp force about twenty-five men through a big crowd of strikers, who were congregated about the en trance of the package house yards. A severe hand to-uand encounter ensued and several on both aides were badly bruised. One of the strikers, J. K. Banks, marshal of the striking pickets, was arrested later and fined 125.

If Tammany is to be represented. which is likely, it is said that State Senator Victor J. Dowllng and Con gressman Uoekran may be present. Mr. Sheenan win goto flew xora Monday morning, for two days. He said to-day that he expected to see Senator Gorman In New York and doubtless also Mr. Davis. The latter is expected to come to Bosemount about Wednesday. No further steps have been taken towards a Joint noti fication of the two candidates, and there is little reason to suppose that any such thing will take place.. There la no precedent ror it, and u is under stood here that JVert Virginia Demo crats are not enthusiastic over the proposition. . - - ueports that air. uneenan is to run for Lieutenant Governor. United States Benator or for any other politi cal office are believed to nave no foun dation. National Committeeman John W. Kern, of Indianapolis, arrived at Ew pus late this afternoon and will spend the night at Bosemount Early In the evening he went for a drive with Mrs. Hall and later had a long conference with Judge Parker. The new campaign office In the lodge at the gate at Bosemount is now in use for part of the judge's busi ness, although the large law library In the honss Is still the center.

Va.. his acceptance of the judge's invitation to visit him at Bosemount no date is mentioned in Mr. Davis' letter, but he Is expected early next week.

No statement has been made aa to the result of the evening's conference between Judge Parker and Mr. Kern. The latter will remain at Bosemount until Monday morning. A LITTLE NONSENSE.

Visitors were al lowed on board at all times except Sunday morning, at which time in spection took place. One Sunday a well known American millionaire steamed out with a party of friends in his private yacht and succeeded in getting on deck, where he was met by Captain Dewey, who asked him to leave. Mr. Money remon strated, and finally, exasperated by the cool firmness of the officer, he burst out: "No, sir, I won't leave. I am an American citizen and have a perfect right on this vessel. I pay taxes in America. I am on my own proper ty; part of this ship belongs to mel" Calmly Dewey opened his pen knife, stooped down and split off a piece of the deck flooring.
