MITCHELL CRITICISED

President of the Western Federation Says Mitchell's Idea Is All Wrong. COMES OUT FOE SOCIALISM PURE Declare the Laborer the Producer; That He Owns What He Prov duces Strike Note.. Denver, Colo., May 29. The annual report of President Charles Moyer to the convention of the Western Federation of Miners, now In session here, has been made public. President Moyer recommends renewal of the declarations of the convention of last year In favor of socialism and Independent political action. Referring to the settlement of the anthracite coal miners' strike by arbitration Moyer said: "Can th? leader of this army of men expect to hold his organization Intact when he advises them to continue a policy which offers nothing for the future but strife and destitution, and commends the findings cf a board of arbitration selected by the representatives of capital, which binds the chains of slavery more securely around his membership and deprives them of even the privilege of appealing to their masters for a period of three years. Say That Labor Owns It AIL "John Mitchell need not be surprised should his membership turn their faces to the west, seeking affiliation with organizations which have sent out their message to the world that as lalor produces all wealth such wealth belongs to the producer thereof." Moyer urged the convention to specify a date for establishing a universal eight-hour day throughout its entire jurisdiction. TBA SISTERS BOUND TO STRIKE One Thousand Oat of 5.000 Qalt Work, bat Ar Ordered Back. St Louis, May 20. The teamsters cf the national and the international unions who at a special meeting decided to strike In sympathy with the freight handlers, despite the counsels and protests of their officials, have gone out. The strike, however, was not as unanimous as was anticipated. There are ö,0U0 teamsters In St. Louis, but less than 1,000 obeyed the strike ordT. During the afternoon J. B. Fitzpatrlck, organizer of the National Teamsters' union, arrived from Denver and at once took steps to check the strike. Fitzpa trick issued an order directing all striking members of the union to return to work by tomorrow unde penalty of expulsion from the union. He declared the strike was unauthorized and was without official sanction. This order had the effect of causing many strikers to resume work Immediately. But before Fitzpatrick's arrival the situation was Dot so serious as to more than Inconvenience the "Wholesale houses and railroads In handling freight. About 1.200 railroad freight handlers In East St. Louis had gone out, and upon learning of the teamsters strike about 100 more walked out The strikes delayed freight handling on both side of the river, but non-union men were employed and the railroads and wholesale houses reported that they were handllrg freight with comparatively little delay before the day Tras half gone. Organizer Fitzpatrick stated that he would make every effort to accomplish a speedy settlement of the present difficulties. The teamsters have made no demands, but went out to enforce the demands for Increased wages made by the freight handlers. The settlement of the metal workers' strike, which some days ago put 4.0C0 men out of work has been finally . effected, after long negotiations. The men will receive an increase of IVi per cent. The executive council of the teovsters met and ordered thestrlkers r neV to work, but the most of the st-iktrs, declare they will disregard the order. GREAT STRIKE AT PHILADELPHIA Keane the Enforced Idleneee of.KO,000 Men, Women and Children, Philadelphia, May 29. One of the greatest strikes in the history of the textile industries of the country will be inaugurated in this city and vicinity at quitting time tonight unless the textile manufacturers grant the demand of the workers, who ask that their working time be reduced from CO to 55 hours a week.

Twenty-three firms have granted the demands. MORE TROUBLE IS BREWING Lake Carrier and the Union Likely To Be f t Txrgerheadi Soon. Detroit, My 29.

NEW ISSUE TOR JOHN BULL Chamberlain and Balfour Set the Editor to Studying the Possibilities of Tariff Debate. London, May 20. All the morning papers published editorials commenting on the importance ard far-reaching consequence of the debate in the commons on protection. The Liberal papers say that while Premier Balfour professed to regard the subject as only one for discussion, and without Immediate Import, Chamberlain treated the subject as a burning nuestion of moment. The Conservative organ, The Standard, says that the sieeches of the two ministers were evidently prepared in concert, and other government organs recognize the same thing. Little attention is paid at the present stage to the Intrinsic merits of Chamberlain's policy. Attention is rather directed to the possibilities of such a political revolution, which Iß calculated to effect a new cleavage of parties at home with unforseeable developments abroad. , PROBE IS VERY BUSY Searching; the Postofflee Department for Farther Evidence of Somebody's Crooked net.

GUI SENSATIONS

This Postofflce Investigation That Is Going on at the National Capital. AUGUSTUS W. MACHEN ARRESTED Charge I That Be Had a Rake-Off on Sappl lea Bought for the Postal SevTice. Washniston, May 28. Ry far the most sensational development of the postofflce investigation up to tL!s time occurred when Augustus W.- Machen, the general superintendent of the free delivery service, was arrested on a warrant issued upon the information of postoJiee Inspectors charging him with having received Vrake-offs" from contracts made with the local firm tf Groff Rros. for a patent postal box fastener. The warrant specifically charges him with receiving $1S.9S1.7$ since Aug. 8, 1000. Only Represent Tart of lilt Hake-Oft. It Is alleged, however, at the department that this amount does not represent all that Machen obtained with his contracts It being charged that 1k has profited by them for several years prior to that date of the first contract mentioned in the warrant. Other arrests are to follow. Immediately af for Machine was taken Into custody the postmaster general issued an order removing him from office. He had been practically under suspension for a fortnight, pending investigation Into his bureau. The discovery of Machen's alleged interests in the contracts was made quite accidentally by the inspectors some three weeks ago, and since then their energies had been directed toward making out a case. DeVaaad a Full Hearing:. When the authorities became convinced that they were In possession of the necessary evidence Machen was notified to appear at the department. He did so and was subjected to a 'sweating" process by the inspectors and General Bristow for three hours, but no admissions that he had profited by the contracts could be secured from him. He declined to answer many questions on the ground that they related to his private 'business; but Insisted to the end that he had not received a cent Improperly. Nevertheless he was arrested" on the warrant which had been prepared and taken before a United States commissioner, where his attorney immediately demanded a' full hearing. CALLS IT A GRAND STAND PLAT Does Machen, bat Brlntow Says the Evidence la "Ample. Assistant District Atturney Taggart, howev"iwas .aot ready to proceed with the case, and the hearing was set for June 5. Machen gave a $20,C00 bond supplied by a Philadelphia bonding company for his appearance, declining to accept the proffer of friends to go on his bond. After his release he declined to make any statement beyond the single declaration that the whole thing was & grand stand play and he would come out all right. Bristow, however, differs witn Machen. In a statement issued by the fourth assistant postmastergeneral, he says: "A. W? Machen, general superintendent free delivery service, was arrested at 1 o'clock today. He is charged with receiving bribes, amounting in all to about $22,000, in connection with a contract held by Groff Bros., of Washington, D. C, for a patent fastener used on street letter boxes, known as the Groff fastener. The postoLice department in tho last ten years has used about $140,000 worth of these fasteners, and It is shown by ample evidence that for the last three years at least Mr. Machen has been receiving 40 per cent, of the amounts paid to the Groffs. The transaction of the business was conducted b3 Diller B. Groff, who controls the patent of his. brother, Samuel M., a policeman." . Which brings us to Diller B. Groff, who soon , called at police headquarters, stating that .he had heard a warrant for his arrest was out He was served with the warrant and was released on $10,000 bond pending a hearing before the United States commissioner today. sloner today. Samuel A. Groff, the other member of the Groff firm, was taken Into custody later and released on $5,000 bail. Deary Storm Dame? In Ohio. Toledo, O., May 28.

IS ADOPTED Explanations of the Presbyterian Creei Are Now the Law of the Organization. GENERAL ASSEMBLY NEAR A UNIT For the Revision, and a Couple of Protests Thrown Out Declatory Statement. Los Angeles, Cal.f May 29 The Presbyterian church of the United states, in general assembly, has finally disposed of the question of revision of creed that has been before the4 last three general assemblies, and which has agitated Presbyterian circles for the past fifteen years. The assembly, by unanimous vote, adopted the revision of the confession of faith as prepared by the committee appointed by the general assembly la 1001. Beside clearing the calendar of this important question the assembly disposed of the "Tennessee overture" in regard to "separate presbyteries. In the same territory," which was commonly known as the "colored question" of the Presbjterian church, and the report of the special committee on divorce and remarriage. Several minor reports also were heard during the day, which on the whole has been the busiest of the assembly's sessions. Two Protects Thrown Oat. The fact that creed revision was to come up attracted tho largest crowd that has attended any meeting since the opening. After disposing of some business of minor importance Moderator Coyle announced that Rev. Henry Van Dyke, of Princeton, X. J., chairman of the committee on bills and overtures, would submit the report of the committee on revision. Defore reading the report Dr. Van Dyke stated that two protests, one from the presbytery of Lehigh and the other from the St. Cloud presbytery, tending to obstruct action on the revision question had been before the committee, and it was recommended that the assembly vote to throw them out. The assembly so ordered. Kach Overture la Adopted. Dr. Van Dyke then proceeded with the report of the revision committee. He read the detailed vote on each one of the eleven overtures, -which showed that no one overture had received more than ten negative votes. The overtures were voted upon seriatim, and adopted. But one Tolce in the negative was heard, and this only on overtures five, six and seven. A decla ra tor y statement which precedes the changes In the confession of faith was read and adopted by the assembly as follows: Declaratory Statement. "While the ordination tow of ministers, ruling elders and deacons, as set forth in. the form of government, requires the reception and adoption of the confession of faith only as containing the system of doctrine taught In the Holy Scriptures, nevertheless, seeing that the desire has been formally expressed for a disavowal by the church of certain inferences drawn from statements In the confession of faith and also for a declaration of certain aspects of revealed truth which appear at the present time to call for more explicit; statements, therefore the Presbyterian church in the United States of America does authoritatlvelydeclareas follows." Here follows the text of the report. POINTS FROM THE BEPORT Two with Reference to Election That Are of Most Interest. The two points In the revision of most interest to the general reader are those referring to man's ejection and what has been called "infant damnation." Of the first the revision says: "That God desires not w the death of any sinner, but has provided In Christ a salvation sufficient for all, adapted for all, and freely, offered In the gospel to all; that raen are fully responsible for their treatment of God's gracious offer; that Ills decree hinders no man from accepting that offer, and that no man is condemned except on the ground of his sin." Of the "infant damnation"-clause: "Also that It is not to be regarded as teaching that any who die In infancy are lost We believe that all dying In Infancy are included In the election of grace." After the reading and adoption of all the overtures Chairman Van Dyke said he wished to make it. clear, and espacially did he wish to say "to the brethren of the press that this revision does not mean that the Fresbyterian church has changed her base one inch, but it does mean that she had broadened and strengthened her foundations." Then twenty minutes were spent in song and prayer. v The colored question was referred to a committee of seven, the colored element of the church to be represented, and it was required. to report to the next general assembly. The report of the special committee on divorce and remarriage was unanimously adopted and was a strong presentation of the case against the remarriage of divorced persons. The report had been forestalled by the passage last Monday of a resolution enjoining Presbyterian ministers from performing th) marriage ceremony in esses of divorced persons.

In the first opening of Oklahoma to settlers in 18S9. the editor of this paper was among the many seekers after fortune who made the race one fine day in April. During his traveling about and afterwards his camping upon his claim he encountered much bad water, which. together with the severe heat, gave him a very severe diarrhoea which it seemed almost impossible to check, and along in June the case became so bad he expected to die, One day one of his neighbors brought him one small bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as a last hope. A big dose was given him while he was rolling about on the ground in great agony, and in a few minutes trie dose was repeated. The good effect of the medicine was soon noticed and 1 withiu an hour the patient was taking his first sound sleepp for a fortnight. That one little bottle worked a complete cure, and he cannot help but feel grateful. The season for bowel disorders being at hand suggests this item, ( BOM THE SENTINEL, GBO, MONT.) For sale by J. E.
