Many Itali- ans have been arrested. > A despatch from Milan 'to the Daily Telegraph says some years ago a pic- ture was discovered in an old castle and deposited in the gallery of paint- ings at the palace. This picture has now been recognized as one of the fin- est of Bbticelli's works. It is oval- shaped and it is painted on a wood- en board. It represents the Madonna adoring on her knees the infant Jes- us, lying on grass. The picture, the correspondent says is absolutely a precious work, which heretofore. has been referred to as having héen lost. English cotton manufacturers are eagerly anticipating the appearance of the Northrop loom in the Lancashire weaving sheds. The Dover corporation vesterday re- jected a proposal that Mr. Carnegie should be asked for a donation to- wards building a public, library. Sev- eral members indignantly protested against the idea of going cap in hand, to the United States millionaire. The announcement in United States dispatches that Henry White, first se- cretary of the United States embassw here, is going. to Madrid, 'is 'clearly premature. Mr. White is starting for the United States to-day = on the Kaiser Wilhelm with his son who is preparing to enter Harvard from Et- on. Mr. White's friends hoped that there would be a vacancy for him at Rome, where his knowledge of [Italian and French would have proved an ex- cellent equipment for diplomatic work.

One of Powers. Should Control the Finances. Cologne, Aug. 27.--The Cologne Ga- logne Gazette, discussing the situation in Venezuela, advocated the interven- tion of one or more of the three pow- ers--Germany,. France and the United States--who have sunk capital in the country, inorder to prevent the pro- fessional revolutionists from doing further mischief, The Gazette recommends an idea whichy it says has already taken root in" Venezuela, nanfely, the appoint- ment of a finance committee, consist- ing of an. equal representation of Venezuelans and representatives of the powers, to exercise gontrol of the chief sources of revenue, to_gellect cus- toms duties on imports, and ,general- lv to administer the finshe without interferinfy with Venezuel, atus fag Reno a separate entity.

Berlin, Aug. 27.--The Berlin Reish- anschieger, the Imperial Gazette, pub- lishes an official welcome to King Vie- tor Emmanuel. The paper declares that friendship between the two dynas- ties has value for both the German and shtalian nations as a pledge of stability in the political relations which knit the countries one to anoth- er and to Austria and Hungary; the triple alliance rests on the common need for maintaining the status quo in Central Europe. It does not lay any burden. on the members which each individual state would not have taken up of its own initiative. It welcomes Signor * Prinetti, the Italian minister of foreign affairs, as a states- man who helped to renew this well tried svstém of territorial guarantees.

Keeper Snyder has just re- turned from his vacation. While in the | Catskillscan old hunter told him ab- out a certain cure for rheumatism which" hunters had used there with success.

Chicago, Aug. 27.--Grave possibili- ties of a strike 'that may tie up all the street railway lines of the west end north sides of this city confront the officials of the Union Traction Company. [ly an overwhelming vote the local union of the Amalgamated Association of Street Car Employees refused to accept the proposition made by President Roach sev eral days ALO. The overtures of the company, which included anm- increase of one cent an hour in wages, the dissolution of a rival 'employees' association and the employment of none but union men, was balloted on by nearly 3,000 men, The votes were counted and. although no public statement was made of the vote it was estimated that the radi- cal men carried the referendum against the company bv nearly ten to one. An agreement between the union and the railway company exists whereby disagreements Shall be settled by arbitration. William Mahon, international presi- dent of the street car men, tried to exert his influence to avert any. strike action and to urge that the union live up to its laws. A rupture, however, occurred be- tween the local officials and President Mahon and he left their meeting with a statement that if the men struck without trying arbitration the gene- ral union 'would not support them in the issue. ENTERPRISING LIQUOR MAN. He Built a Town for a Sa- loon. Parkersburg, W. Va., Aug. 27.--C. D. Gillespie, of Hendrick, Tacker county, has applied for six years for a license to sell liquor, but was turn- ed down every time. He bought seve- ral acres of land on the Cheat river opposite Hendrick, and built a num- Ler of tenement houses. When the population was sufficient he applied for corporate: powers for his town, whic he called Brooklyn Heishts. As he had a petition from every citi.en of the place he got a charter. After incorporating Brooklyn Heights, Gillespie elected a mayor and city council, and with their backing again applied for a license. The county court gave him the necessary permission. Immediately upon get- ting the license, he gave a contract for a wire bridge, which begins in front of his saloon and ends in Hen- drick. He built his saloon, a big frame building, in twenty-four hours, and is selling liquors to the people of the Heights and the town of Hendrick. He has erected a city lock-up, and he runs the town, collects the fines and taxes. GETTING LOWER WAGES. of the Board of Trade Report Shows Decline. London, Aug. 27.--The annual re- port of the labor department of the board of trade records a decline in the wages bill of the United Kiggdom for the first time since 1895. The decrease was mostly in miners' wages, no less than 625,000 miners being affected dur- ing the first half of 1062. The report says it is satisfactory to note the in- creased tendency to settle changes of wages by conciliation or arbitration. \ 2 Only twonper cent. of the workers whose wageSsyere reduced in 1901 en- gaged in dispuity, on that account.
