iENERAL STRIKE MAY
HOVE A FAILURE
Libaralx Shrink From Horrors
of a Civil War.
PUBLIC SYMPATHY l» LACKING
Many of tho Leaders Are Only Luke¬
warm or Aro In Opon Mobellion
Agalnot Tholr Ordor—Endoovoring
to Sleek Revolutionary Moves.
Petersburg, Aug. 6.—Unless dta-
patches from tbs Interior within a
few hours entirely change the situa-
tlon the general atrike promises to
prove s oomplete failure.
Although the liberals are strongly
opposed to the course of the govern¬
ment, they shrink from precipitating
a revolution, and the horrors of a
civil war. In which the country would
be plunged If the plans of the pro¬
letariat leaders were successful. Not
only is the sympathy of the intelli¬
gent public lacking, but In St. Peters¬
burg many of the leaders are only
only lukewarm, j»r are in open rebel¬
lion against their order. When the
central committee of the printers'
union adjourned Sunday night, many
of the men returned to their cases
with the result that four newspapers
appeared Monday morning.
The central committee of the rail¬
road unions find many of their men
unwilling to leave their positions and
others half-hearted.
If the train service Is not brought
to a standstill the collapse of the
strike movement is Inevitable. The
workmen’s council, which apparently
Is a much weaker body that the simi¬
lar council which managed the strike
of last fall In fear of failure has al¬
ready practically determined to resort
to violence In order to stop traffic
on the railroads, If the men refuse to
join in the movement.
The authorities are using all the
means at their disposal to block the
revolutionary moves In every direction
and appear convinced that the strike
leaders cannot gather sufficient head¬
way to endanger the life of the state.
Indeed, they believe that nothing more
than local Btrlkes, which soon degen¬
erate into the old story of crime and
terrorism, wlM result.
WON WAGER BY SUICIDING.
Dillon Man Bet Wife She Wouldn’t
Leave Home During Hie Absence.
Dillon, S. C., Aug. 6.—.At an early
hour Sunday morning the dead body
of Mrs. White Hamilton was found
In the lot well on their premises,
where It had been since last Tuesday
morning.
On that day Willie Hamilton, a
farmer living about 2 miles from
Dillon, came into town bringing with
him his little daughter, the only
child, leaving the wife and mother
atone. . She had expressed some oppo¬
sition to having the child aocompany
the father, fearing, she said, that the
horse might become frightened at the
automobiles and the child be Injured,
aad even said If the father persisted
in carrying the little girl she would
leave .home. Hamilton playfully and
banteringly offered l\er RIO, saying he
bet she would not leave. When he
returned home a few hours later there
was no trace of his wife. He saw
that she had evidently changed her
clothing, and he found the $10 stick¬
ing In the fob pocket of the trousers
he had laid aside that morning.
Killed Friend; Sought Own Life.
Vineland, N. J., Aug. 6.—Nicholas
Berti, aged 30 years, a well known res¬
ident of this city, was shot and in¬
stantly killed by Alexander Cordelia,
a prominent farmer living near this
place. Both men bad been to a par¬
ty and Berti accompanied Cordelia to
the later’s home. Near the house
the men quarreled. Cordelia went
to the barn, secured a shotgun and
killed Berti. Cordelia fled and took
refuge In a vineyard, where he was
found by detectives. He confessed
to having shot Berti, but said "he did
not want to hang. “Give me a knife
or a revolver," he pleaded, "and they
oan bury me at the same time they
do Berti. ” Some of Bertl's friends
tried to take the prisoner from the
officers, and there was a free fight In
which several men were hurt. The
officei# finally succeeded In getting
their prisoners In the jail.
Delegates to State Convention.
Waterloo, Iowa, Aug. 6.—Delegates
to the Democratic state convention
which meets Tuesday arrived Monday
in large numbers. Nearly all the
veteran workers of the party are here
and a conference wll be held to agree
upon a tentative program as to the
ticket. The leading candidates for
governor are George W. Ball, of Io¬
wa City, Claude Porter of Centre-
vllle, and John D. Denison, of Du¬
buque. All the delegates who have
arrived are for a strong endorsement
of Bryan for president.
Florida Sheriff Suspended.
Tallahassee, Fla., Aug. 6.—-Governor
Broward has suspended from office
Sheriff George R. Carter, of Citrus
county, because he permitted without
adequate resistance two prisoners to
be taken from his custody by mobs,
who lynched them, Frank Jordan be¬
ing lynched on May 16 nd James Da
vis on June T, thus outraging and
bringing the dignity of the state Into
disrepute. B. P. Grahatn is appoint
ed to succeed Carter.
Arbitration Project Signed.
Rio Janeiro, Aug. 6.—At Monday’s
session of the international congress,
an arbltratio nproject was unanimous¬
ly signed. It ratified the adhesion
of the conference In thl principle of
arbitration and recommends that the
Pan-American delegates to The Hague
peace conference be Instructed to sup¬
port an universal arbitration agree¬
ment. A vote of recommendation will
be taken Tuesday.
HUMOR OF THE HOUR
The beautiful girl stopped suddenly
on the sidewalk. Both of her arms
reached over her shoulders, while a
queer expression came In her face.
“Well, did you ever! I wonder what
la the matter with her?"
"Better hot go too near. Maybe the
heat has affected her mind.”
“Poor thing! Maybe It is overstudy,”
"Land sakes! She might be one of
these hens anarchists.”
“Bet she has been disappointed In
love.”
Suddenly the beautiful girl smiled.
, “It’s all right now,” she said sweet¬
ly.
“What’s all right?” asked the crowd,
breathless with suspense.
“Why, my waist. A button came
loose In the back and I had such an aw¬
ful time reaching It. But It’s all right
now.”
And then the crowd melted away like
ice cream In a summer sun.—Chicago

his Innocent wife.-
