DANGER ABOUT OVER
AND WHILE THE FEELING OF AN
ARCHISM IS ABROAD, IT BECOMES J
“sNAKEY” ONCE MORE. DEATH
LURK-' IN THE CUPS OF THE “REDS ’
ChicHgc, July 9. —The war cioud
which has overhung this city and
this laud for the past ten days
shows distinct signs of lifting.
In stead of stories of additional
railroads tied up at various pointe
throughout tho country, today’s
dispatches, almost without excep
tion, bring advices of strikers re<
'uruing to work and an increased
resumption of traffic, amounting
in some places tv a return to nor
mal conditions. .
The day in Chicago has passed with
out a serious conflict between the
rioters and the armed lorces now on
duty here .The feature of the day has
been the action eaily this morning
after an all-night session of the fed
erated trades unions in Chicago, in
deciding to call out all classes of ln
b r on Tuesday afternoon at 4 o ; < 1 x-k
unless George Al. Puiluuu should
u ave agreed, before the meridian of
that day, to settle the differences be
tween his company and his striking
employes by arbitration or otherwise. |
For reasons not known to the pub
lic was made that President Gom
purs, of the Knights of Labor and
his advisers subsequently -decided to
postpone the general walkout and
paralytic strike which they proposed
to inflict upon the business of Chica
go until 7 o’clock Wednesday morn
ing.
Late thia afternoon th*
announcement was made that
Presdeut Gompers of the American
Federation of Labor had called a
meeting of the executive commit
tee of that < rgauizatiou to be held
in this city on Thursday, ana that
he would leave New York tot
Chicago tomorrow evening. In
view of this it is not believed that
the federated trades of Chicago
will take precipiate action before
consultation with him.
President Gompers says it will
be impossible to decide on a line
of action to be pursued before
Thursday and probably it it
should finally be resolved to de
clare a general etnke of all these
combined forces it could not b»-
put into effect before Friday
morning.—Constitution.

“What, were you doing drunk on

‘Was I drunk, judge? ’ was the re

“The arresting officer says you

“Under oath, judge?' 5
“(Certainly. ”
‘ Perhaps he's right, judge,but I

in my hand ’
The judge had a jug set before the
prisoner.
“Do you call that a bird cage? he en
quired, “That’s what you were carry
ing along in your hand.”
The prisoner picked it up carefully,
removed the stoper took a smell and
turned it upside down. It was as dry
as he was.
“Weil, judge,” he answered slowly.
“It ain’t a bird cage now, since them
officers has had a whack at it ” *
Probably you are sober now and
see things differently.”
“That ain’t it judge. It was a bird
cage when I had it last.”
“Ptssibly you can explain what you
mean by a bird cage,” suggested the
puzzeled couit.
“Easy enough, judge,” smiled the
prisoner; “It had forty or fifty swal
lows in it when they got it,” and the
lucidity of the explanation and the
possibilities of what had liappened_to_
it affected the judge so powerfully
that he dismissed the case.
