PITTSBURG. Pa., July 55.—Pres!
dent fthfUTer, of the Amalgamated As
sociation, was in a more hopeful mold
today than for some time. He said
lie was perfectly satisfied with hfs
personal Inspection of the condition at
Wellsvlilo and apprehended no diffi
culty In keeping his men aC that place.
Information from McKeesport today
toads ito the belief that tho big mills
of tho National Tube Company, in that
city would shortly be involved In tho
strike. This is pay-day at the works
nnd two prominent members of the
new amalgamated lodge that woe or
ganised there lost Saturday received
notice that tholr services were no' lon-
i ger required. It is reported' that other
members of tho union there got, or will
get, a similar notice when they draw
their pay, for It is a blow at tho very
privilege that the Amalgamated Asso
ciation is striving for at the other
mills of tho steel trust.
While McKeesport lies been quiet up
to the -present time there te a feeling of
repressed excitement - among th*. Na
tional Tube works over the prospect
of extending the strike then*.

LONDON, July 25.—Presiding at this
afternoon's session of the British con
iresa on tuberculosis, Earl Spencer se
verely criticised Dr. Robert Koch’s
theory to the effect that human beings
were Immune from contagion from tu
berculosis cattle. Earl Spencer sild
he hoped this Was true, but that hfe
hoped more that the dissemination of
such views , would not tend to causa
tho laxity on. the part of cattlo own
ers and dairymen* or less vigilance
by the authorities charged with pro
tecting the consumers of milk. The
speaker earnestly trusted the congress
would not endorse the view that It
was unnecessary to take measurea to
prevent tho transmission of tuberou*
lusla of animal# to humans.
STATE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
ADOPTED A RESOLUTION, *l’P-
PORTGD BY TILLMAN, RULING
SOUTH CAROLINA’S JUNIOR SENA
TOR OUT OP THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY AND ASKING HIS RESIGNA
TION.
THERE SEEMS TO DE SOME DOUBT
ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE
II RIDGE—ONE OF THE BUILDERS
HAS SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT
THE STRUCTURE.
How I Cure Stricture.
Every man should acquaint himself wl th my Improved method ofecuring Strict
ure. This painful d!K*ase is more serlou s than is generally believed, because it-
leads to complications Involving the most delicate or
gans of the body. It matters not how many doctors
have treated you in vain, I can cure you. and cure
your, pemanently. By my original method I complete.y
dissolve the stricture and remove every obstruction, i
do no cutting; my treatment is painless and causes no
detention from business. All inflammation is allayed
and no symptom remains.
Mr. J. T. Wicker of Grange. Ga.. writes: “I am
delighted with your treatment for Stricture, which dis
ease has bothered me for years. I tried in vain many
advertised remedies and was In bad shape when I .
£ laced my case in your hands. Your home treatment
»s cured me In two months, and I take pleasure in
commending your skill.” , ,.
Those afficted with Stricture or Varacocile should
beware of the many ready made, quick cures so exten-
. sivelyadvertised. Your condition needs spe clal atten
tion, ana. experiments often result In permanent Injury.

COLUMBIA, 8. C., July 25.—The
state executive committee late tonight
adopted a resolution ruling Senator
McLaurin out of the Democratic par
ty. The action was totally unex
pected. l
Senator Tillman supported the reso
lution which was unexpectedly offered
as a aubrtltule for a resolution over
which there, had been much debate,
presenting the oath to be taken by
candidates for congress In the ap
proaching election to fill the vacancy
caused by tho death of Congressman
Stokes of the Seventh district. The
rules proposed In that resolution were
plainly Intended to cover the senato
rial election noxt year. The resolution
follows:
“Wherea* the Hon. John L. McLau
rin, Junior senator, elected to repre
sent the state of South Carolina in
the national congress, has by his af
filiations and votes In that body, ig
nored the nstlonal democratic' plat
form and thereby misrepresented his
state and his democratic constituency
who elected him, therefore, fbe It re
solved,
"That It Is the sense and convlctlpn
of tho state democratic committee
that Senator John L. McLaurin from
the standpoint of honesty, and self-
respect should tender his unqualified
resignation immediately."
Tho resolution was adopted by &
vote ot 25 to 5.
NEW YORK, July 25.—No attempt
was made this morning to resume a
full service on the Brooklyn bridge, on
which several suspension rods were
found to be broken yesterday. A ten-
car service was permitted by the po
lice, but it could not handle even a
percentage of' the traffic and the nu;
Jority of the persons who live in
Brooklyn and came to New York for
business were obliged to walk across
the bridge or cross the river on the
ferry lines.
Engineers examined the bridge care
fully today and It Is expected that full
repairs will be made in a day or two.
About noon an order was Issued stop
ping all etreet car and vehicle traffic
on the bridge. A statement was lamed
by a representative of the Roebllngs,
who built the bridge, to the effect that
the suspenolon cables of the bridge
were strong enough to hold more
weight than had ever been put upon
them, but there was doubht as to
whether the roadway supports were
adequate in view of the operation of
the great number of trolley cars and
elevated trains.
Acting District Attorney L. E. Bar-
bier has called the attention of Police
Commissioner Murphy to the report
that the breakage was known to the
bridge officials for ft week.
If this wore so, wrote the acting at
torney, and no steps were taken looking
to repairs, then tho officials were guilty
of criminal negligence and the case
would be presented at once to the
grand Jury.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
From the New York Times.
Tho intelligence displayed by some
desk sergeants frequently excites the
a wo and wonder of the operators at
police headquarters In Brooklyn, whose
duty It Is to receive reports of police
happenings over the telephone from the
various station houses.
Tho other night a sergeant in one of
the South Brooklyn preeintes was send
ing In a report about a slight accident.
In which a man was Injured. The am
bulance surgeon who attended the man
had desrrlbed the nature of his Injury*
to the Intelligent patrolman on tho
post, and the latter Jotted It down In
tils book while returning to the station
houee. The intelligent sergeant, re
porting to headquarters, described the
man's Injuries as follows:
' He received a precis* wound of ths
alteration."
"A what?" asked the astonished op
erator.
Tho sergeant repeated the description
of the wound.
"Ray," said the operator, "you don't
expect me to enter any such fool re
port as that, do you?" You'd better
study the thing over."
Th# sergeant consulted with the pa
trolman, and then returned to the tele
phone.
"I made s mistake about that, old
men." he admitted to the operator.
' The officer says It's a splice wound of
the abandonment, It’s dead easy to
get mixed on them medical terms, you
know "
To the.operator the thing was now-
shrouded In ' Impenetrable d irknee*.
Despairing of obtaining any light from
the aergeant or patrolman, he celled up
the ambulance surgeon at the hospital
"Bey, Doc," he asked, "what kind of
an Injury has that man got whom you
: Just brought In?”
"An indeed wound or the abdomen.'
explained the surgeon.
Pawing tfic air wildly and ptrouel
ting like a whirling dervloh, the oper
ator made for the electric fan, turned
It on. and flung himself, limp and per
spiring. back Into his chair.
It Is not generally known except
among a few horsemen, but Musquc-
toon, the horse which was sold :« few
days ago to an Atlanta man by his
Macon owner, Mr. Edgar Ross, Jr., fig
ures In a big lawsuit which Captain
Barnes, the former owner, some time
ago Instituted against the Western
Union Telegraph Company. The story
as told, runs thus:
When Mr. O. Mowers was campaign
ing Musquetoon, he found In New York
city a man who wanted to buy the
horse and who offered 12.500 for him.
Mr. Mower* .wired Cmpt. Barnes, ask
ing for instructions. Capt. Harn*s
wired: "Sell for $2,600 or what you can
get." The Western Union, it Is claim
ed, telephoned tho message to a store
keeper near the race track, and It was
taken down on a brown pleco of piper
and carried by a porter to the track,
where Mr. Mowers was supi»osed to b
Before Mr. Mowers saw the message,
the man who had offered the $2,600 saw
It. He thought It meant that If $2,500
could not be realised for Musquetoon
Capt. Barnes would be glad to get any
sort of price, so he Jumped into his
conveyance and left for the city, say
ing he did not care.for the horse at
any price. Thereupon suit was entered
against the Western Union for failure
to properly deliver Capt. Barnes' mes
sage.
Mercer will not be represented In th%
Interstate oratorial contest at Mont-
eagle, Tenn., tonight.
Mr. Walter George was chosen at the
last session to represent the college,
having demonstrated In every particu
lar his eminent fitness for the respon-'
slblllty. and he was regirdod as a sure
winner, but he has four.«l that It will
be impossible for him to go, und It Js
not so that a substitute can go.
The contest occurs tonight. Mercer
won It the first time, when Mr. J,
Roach Straion was the orator, und th«
only defeat she ever knew In a contest
of the kind was last year, when Mr.
Mark Bolding went down in defeat by
only one-third of a point.
Mr. Bolding and Mr. George are now
practicing law together in Unadllla,
and Vienna.
Business engagements are assigned
as Mr. George's reason for not going
into the contest this year.
