The Prominent Leather Merchant Took Conservative Ground on.

the Great Question. Eagle Bureau, 60S Fourteeath Street. Washington, November 21 The reciprocity convention thai has been in session here tor several clays accomplished before its final adjournment last night quite as much, if not more, than was expected of it by Its promoters. In the opinion of Richard Young of Brooklyn, the well known leather merchant, and others, the Republican leaders in the Senate. and House are bound to be impressed by the action of the convention, composed, as it was, of many of the leading business men of the country, and will take' up the question of reciprocity in a determined manner and bring about favorable action in some of the treaties.

Mr. Young's address to the convention was most favorably received. He spoke as follows: "The question has been asked on this floor If we are ready to consider any question regarding tariff revision in any form. We hear rumbling of discontent everywhere abroad about our policy, of trying to take and give nothing in return, a policy which must eventually result in the curtailment of our business by legislation against us; therefore it seems to me that this is an auspicious lime for the adoption of wise reciprocity treaties to strengthen our position in the markets abroad where it can be done without the slightest injury to any industry. "Reciprocity treaties should be made with Canada, South America, Australia and other countries which would open their markets to our products without in any measure tending to pauperize our labor.

The object of tariff should be to protect any and. every industry, which, because of cheaper labor abroad, would necessitate the reduction of the income of our wage earners. "The time has passed when any single Industry should be protected simply to enable those engaged In it to make excessive profits to the detriment 'of the consumers at home or abroad. The' time has come when by reciprocity treaty or otherwise the raw material which we cannot produce to supply our factories and furnaces should be placed within our reach so that we may employ our labor to the fullest extent and sell the finished product in any market in the world. "I am sure our able statesmen, and many of them are as able as any in the world, are competent to formulate reciprocity treaties which woulff protect the American labor and industry and secure for us not alone broader markets, but greater international barmohy.

"I deprecate any and all efforts' to break down the tariff system under which we have prospered sto greatly, but I can. foresee that the greatest good to the greatest number of our business men will be secured by careful consideration of our foreign commercial re, lations. "The groivth of our foreign, Jthe wonder of the world to day, and I'thlnkTt' la only beginning. There is no thoughtful man at heme or abroad who does not see that with our improved machinery, energy and intelligent labor in the immediate future we are to become the leading nation in commerce, manufacture and finance, and whether the object is secured through a national department of comjgcrce iliRecl. ye ohuu "have rabYe" extended reciprocal relations with all foreign countries, would benefit us without injury to them.

"Thejday for a narrow, contractedausiness policy at home or abroad is passed." We can afford Eps, liberal in our treatment with whom v. desire to nave commercial relations. America is surely broad enough to be generous. I think these were the thoughts and the spirit which, in ....,1 cnrtK t(. dent, McKlVky, iteUffSesL.it! speech "whicn alone would have marked him a great man.

The Now or Never Lodge No. 517, Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen of the Long Island Railroad, held the eighth annual ball last evening at the New Eckford Hall, at Eckford and Calyer streets.

Railroad men from all the nearDy stations journeyed to the hall and when the grand march was begun the hall was crowded. The interior of the hall had been especially decorated for the event. There were twenty eight numbers on the dancing order and it was early this morning before the la3t number was completed. The officers of the lodge are: Andrew A. O'Brien, master; George W.

Weitz, past master; Walter Fox, vice master; Thomas McMullen, secretary; John L. Bresloff, financier; Arthur Smith, journal agent. VIGILANCIA IS AFLOAT. Wrecked Ward Liner Was Put beard To day in Erie Basin. Over The Ward line steamship VIgilancia was floated off the balance dock in Erie Basin to day, where she has lain for six or seven weeks past.

The ship was wrecked off the coast of Cuba early in the year and remained on the reef tor a couple of months. During this period the notorious wreckers of the West Indies played havoc with the ship. Everything movable was stolen. The brass rims of the headlights were punched out and even the blades of the bronze propeller were removed. Tho hub would have followed suit only the wreckers had no facilities equal to the task of getting It off the shaft.

The ship was left an utter wreck. Finally a wrecking company undertook to salve the hull as soon as the engines and boilers had been removed. After working at it for a couple of weeks the wrecking tug and crew went off to the nearest port for stores and supplies, leaving a man or two on board the wreck. During their absence the hull floated off the reef and they found it drifting around on returning. The watch on board was badly frigntened when the hull lifted and commenced to drift.

Although a couple of months on the coral, there was not a leak in the 3hip. The bottom was so badly crushed, however, that almost the entire plates up to the bilges had to be removed and rerolled or replaced by new ones. This work has just been completed. It is likely that the entire interior of the ship will have to be rebuilt, with new engines and boilers before she goes into commission again. GRAIN TRADE DEPRESSED.

Grain Committee Said to Have Asked for Pay Roll of Inspection Department. There has been a marked absence of grain arrivals at the elevators for two wetiks. past. The general export lookout is so discouraging that it was said to day the grain committee the Produce Exchange has asked for the payroll of the Inspection Department. This is understood to moan that, in view of the depressed condition of the export trade, there will be a reduction in the ranks of the grain inspectors and others connected with the department.

Considerable grain is expected at the Erie Basin elevators, but there seems to bo a doubt whether or not it has been diverted to some other port. One of the elevators, which had Been prepared for business in the Atlantic Dock, is being dismantled of its machinery and the latter is being stored away for the winter. There are, however, between 7,000,000 and 8,000,000 bushels of grain in store. Of this amount, there arc probably 1,500,000 bushels in the Erie Basin and the balance in the elevators of the Now York Dock Company. As grain pays a storage charge of of a cent per bushel per month, this alone represents a total receipt of $7,500 per million bushels per month, beside labor and handling charges.

WORKERS' CIRCLE RAISED $80. An entertainment was given last night at the Park Congregational Church, Seventh street near Sixth avenue, under the auspices of the Royal Workers' Circle of King'B Daughters, and was a decided aucceflB. The programme consisted of exhibitions in white in tableaux representing scenes In Grecian and Roman history and mythology. The groupings were artistically arranged and enthusiastically received by an appreciative audience. Martha Buhsen, who was to impersonate one of the Cupids, was taken sick at the last moment and her place was taken by Willie Grosser.

Miss Virginia Burrows gave several recitations and Miss Evangeline Curry, soprano, rendered two selections. Mrs. Berrall, pianist, very kindly donated her services for the evening. Mrs. Barclay, president of the Royal Workers' Circle of King's Daughters, was pleased at the result of the entertainment, over $JS0 being realized from the sale of tickets and advertising, which will be used in charitable work in connection with the church.

The former will die, John was seriously wounded. The shooting was done by Robert Coburn.

These are Meese Gottfried, the California machine works, and Kennard Barry, foundry men. They have agreed to pay an increase of IVz cents an hour in wages to their employes to make up for the reduction in hours.

AGAINST SPECULATORS. Magistrate Naumer Decides an Important Case Involving Rights of Ticket Speculators. Magistrate Naumer in the Myrtle avenue court to day refused to issue a warrant for the arrest of Percy G. Williams and Charles Adams of the Orpheum Theater, who were charged by Philip Roseabaum of 670 Warrea street, a theatrical ticket speculator of thirty seven years' experience, with interfering with his business, on the night of October 23. Magistrate Naumer says in his decision: "A theater ticket is a mere license revocable at the will of the manager.

"The manager has a right to caution the public against buying tickets from speculators and by doing so revokes the license granted by any ticket in the possession of the speculator. "The manager has the right by any fair and proper methods to inform the public of his refusal to accept the ticket sold by speculators "I hold that the manager exercised this right in a fair and proper manner, hence the complainant's application for a warrant is refused." Rosenbaum complained that on the night or the alleged trouble Mr. Williams, who is the manager of the Orpheum, walked up and down in front of his theater, warning people not to buy tickets of speculators and that "sandwich" men promenaded with boards containing the caution against speculators. There was considerable feeling shown at the time and the alleged jostling of one of the theater men against Mr. Rosenbaum led to arrest and complaint at the station house.

Counselor George Gru, who appeared for the complainant, contended that the methods adopted by Manager Williams were illegal. Counselor S. S. Whitehouse, who was the legal representative of Mr. Williams, said that the latter had a right to have 300 men parade in front of his theater for the purpose of stopping theatrical 'ticket speculation, If he wished to do so.

Mr. Rosenbaum said to an Eagle reporter, after reading Magistrate Naumer's decision, that he Intends to appeal and had instructed Mr. Gru to that efTect. He added that he felt convinced that right was on Mb side. HOPPER, SLOAN A MB NEAGLE Sued by Everette E.

Reynolds to Secure Cash Alleged to Have Been Spent by Him on a London Company. De Wolf Hopper and Tod Sloan are, together with Henry Neagle, defendants in a suit brought in the Supreme Court, Manhattan, by Everette R. Reynolds, in which Reynolds seeks to recover for his outlay on an company as the De Wolf Hop per Company, which' is alleged to have been formed in London in 1899. Justice Fitzgerald to day denied a motion to have the case placed on the short cause calendar, so that it could be tried at an early date. This application was made by Reynolds, who says the defendants assumed the management of the company and leased from him scenery and costumes, and also agreed to pay the traveling expenses of the members of the company and allow him a certain percentage of the receipts.

They did not keep their contract, Reynolds alleges, and he had spent paying salaries which they should have paid. Charles A. Hess, who represents Hopper and Neagle, opposed the motion, and said Sloan had Sled an answer in which he denied owing Reynolds anything, and said he had spent on the running of the company far more than any amount for which he could be held liable. Counsel said the case could not possibly be tried in the two hours pre SCi ibecl for short causes, as there were very Pine Shooting at Interstate Park hy Henry C. Koegel.

Gratifying Reports Read at Twenty fourth Annua. Convention Held To day.

The convention was subdivided into three distinct sessions, morning, afternoon and evening, though luncheon, served In the Sunday tschool room at the close of the morning service, practically joined the first two sessions in one. The attendance of Sunday school teachers this morning was large and it was likewise representative of many different religious denominations.

The workers in the convention found good source for mutual congratulations in each fact. A pre arranged programme was carefully followed so that no time should be lost or wasted.

He stated that he was glad thus to offer, because tho con i vention was one of Sunday school workers. Among other things he said that no other agoncy had wrought so much for the good of the Sunday school cause as the Kings County Sunday School Convention.

i "One. grand thing," he said, "about this! Sunday school convention is that it has brought teachers of different denominations together, but though of different denomina tlons, one in Christ Jesus. This convention is held so that we might confer in unison and adopt the best plans for all. There is no difference of opinion as to the source of the Sunday school's power. This power is twofold.

There is the intellectual; in order to acquire intellectual power, faithful study is necessary. And there is the There Is no difference of opinion as to the source of spiritual power; also, as to the necessity for spiritual power. This is the children's age. The light shining on the cradle is but teaching us that the children must be brought to the Saviour."

Force of the Captor Is Only 120 Men, hut 200 Others Are Within Six Miles of Town. Colon, Colombia, November 21 The City of Colon was perfectly quiet all yesterday and last night. It is claimed in behalf of the Liberals that there has been no unseemly behavior. Foreigners are being respected and protected and transit across the isthmus is uninterrupted. General Sarrla commands the government forces at Panama.

General Patlno (who was the original commander of the Liberal force which captured Colon, and who was announced to have been killed in the initial skirmish in the outskirts of Colon Tuesday), Is said to have intended to capture the Colon gunboat General Pinzon in person, and some say that the general was drowned in an effort to reach her in a boat which was capsized. Colonel Barrera, however, denies this. There is no doubt that the copture of the General Pinzon was contemplated. The Genenl Pinzon, as cabled yesterday, succeeded in putting to sea on Tuesday night, having on board Senor Paredes, the Mayor of Colon, and was believed to have headed for Carthagena. The United States gunboat Machias, it is understood, will not interfere with any of the fighting, but will protect the railroad and foreign interests.

A few armed Liberal troops left Colon by train this morning for Gatun. The post office, prefecture, all the other government offices and nearly all the commercial houses were closed yesterday. Colonel Barrera, commander of the Liberal forces, asserts that he has notified the district representatives of the department of the interior and other former officials of the government that he has appointed, formally, to day Senor Espriella, a prominent lawyer and counsel for the Panama Railroad, as a member of the commission. The feeling of the community cannot be regarded as antagonistic to Liberalism. The existing conditions have created no panic, but it is recognized that the fact that the Liberals hold Colon while the Conservatives are in possession of Panama creates a state of affairs which cannot possibly continue.

Colonel Barrera admits that the government troops here numbered a little less than 120 men. It was at first reported that twelve or more men had been killed and that about thirty had been wounded, but the bodies of more dead men have since been discovered. The inspector of customs escaped on an outgoing steamer. Several prisoners who were captured by title Liberals have since been released. General Zaldana commands 200 Liberal troops at Gatun railroad station, about six miles from Colon.

The Liberals claim to be In possession of all the railroad stations between Colon and Las Cascadas, which is nearer to Panama than to Both sides used Remingtons and Mausers. The former caused the higher death rate. A Liberal lieutenant who was shot in the neck with a Mauser bullet is reported to be doing well. No immediate attack on Panama is contemplated. Colonel Barrera is awaiting the arri al at Colon of the Liberal chief, Domingo Diaz, in a day or two.

When Diaz reaches this city definite plans will be formulated. Washington, November 21 The Secretary of the Navy has received the following cablegram from Captain Perry, commanding the battleship Iowa, dated Panama, to day: "Everything quiet. No further interference since notification. Transit and telegraphic communication open. Colon In possession of Liberals and quiet." General Diego A.

de Castro of the Colombian government forces, who arrived in this city a couple of days ago on the steamship Allegheny from Savanilla his secretary, Antonio L. Armente, to day held a conference with Artura de Brigard, the Consul General of Colombia, at the latter's office. 17 State street. Manhattan. General de Castro is here to secure ammunition and arms and other munitions of war for his government and to prevent if possible the shipment of munitions of war to the Insurgents at Colombia from this and other ports of this country.

General de Castro came to this city bringing all of his military accouterments of bis rank, even to his sword. He is 3aitl to bo a great naval warrior and to have won many victories on the Magdolena river. It was said that one of his missions was the purchase of a large vessel to be fitted up as a war ship and which will also carry the arms and ammunition he purchases to Colombia. At the office of the Panama Railway and Steamship Company it was said this morning that no advices had been received froni Colon giving any additional Information concerning the situation at Colon to those received yesterday.

FINE LAW POINT INVOLVED. On Tuesday Mr. Deiser Will Explain Why He Tore Plumbing Out of Several Buildings. There are many lawyers interested just now in the case of Lewis A. Deiser, a plumber, in business at 388 Broadway, who has come pretty near to arrest on a charge of having looted certain buildings on the south side of Bainbridge street.

Of course, Mr. Deiser has not been arrested, but he has been summoned to court to explain why he tore all of the plumbing out of the buildings, from 118 to 126 Bainbridge street, and the charge against him, if there is any at ail, according to George V. Brower and some of the lawyers who are prosecuting the case, will be one of larceny. But Mr. Deiser, who is an exceedingly reputable business man, will show that he owned the houses and also the plumbing and that he could not very well be accused of stealing from himself.

There is much in the way of fine points of law involved in the case and one of the counsel for Mr. Deiser is no less a person that Professor Isaac Franklin Russell, who is a scientific lecturer on fundamental law and who is probably as well equipped as any man in town to disentangle knotty points of equity. Equity is equity, and there is nothing knotty about it in the general acceptance of the term, but this case presents some features that are, to say the least, unusual. The complainants against Mr. Deiser are Edward Schulze of 101 Harman street and the officers of the Kings County Trust Company.

The latter are seeking to foreclose mortgages on the property on Bainbridge street, on which they loaned the company's money, while Mr. Schulze is the man who borrowed'. Mr. Schulze bought a row of new buildings on Bainbridge street as a matter of speculation. The purchase was made from D.

Topping Atwood in July, 1900. There were six of the buildings unfinished and they were in no sense in a marketable condition, for, while the walls were up and the roofs' were on and the floors were laid and some of the partitions were in place, there were many things left incomplete. There were no stairs at all, no sashes or doors and no internal trimmings. Mr. Schulze was in the speculation to make money and he tried to hurry the buildings, which wore to be model residences, to completion, for it seemed as if there would be a ready market.

So to one firm he gave the contract for the carpenter work, to another the stone work, to another the work on the slate mantels and tiling; and still to others contracts for stairs, for plastering, for inside "blinds, for lumber, for what was left of the roofing, for painting and decorating, for iron bow windows, for iron fences, for plate glass, mirrors, inside sideboards, steam heating, cement, electrical wiring, mason work and plumbing. Mr. Deiser was the man who had the plumbing to do. He contracted to put: in all of the fancy bath tubs and the shiny piping that would go a great length in selling houses when they were finally ready for occupancy. was to set the ranges, too, but Mr.

Schulze promised that he would supply the ranges personally. Mr. Schulze needed money while all this was being done and he had no trouble apparently in getting all he wanted for a time on the gilt His first notable borrow was when he got $16,000 from the Huber estate on the 18th of March last by giving a mortgage on a part of the property, payable in 1904. The interest on the loan was to have been paid semi annually. The $16,000 did not last long and according to Mr.

Schulze's affidavit in the papers in the case, he did a great deal of borrowing on the estate on the 11th of April last. On that day he got $16,000 from the Kings County Trust Company, giving a mortgage on two of the houses as security for the payment of the money in a year; $8,000 from John Ryan, giving a mortgage on another, of the houses as security; $8,000 from Mrs. Sarah G. White of Summit, N. giving a mortgage on another of tho houses, and finally $13,650 from James McLoughlin, giving a blanket mortgage for that.

On the same day to secure the who were finishing up the work he executed a mortgage to Deiser as trustee for the other workmen and on the 7th of September, to clinch things for the men who had supplied labor and material, he conveyed the five houses at the addresses given to Mr. Deiser. There was owing to the worKmen at that time the interest on all of the mortgages but that of the Huber estate, and foreclosure proceedings were commenced. It was during this time, it Is claimed, tnat ueiser went tr the buildincs and stripped tnem oi tne fine Dlumblus that he had placed there. But at that time he was the nominal owner, not.

rmlv nr thn nlumblne but of the nouses from which it was taken. Schulze and the trust company people resolved to punish Mr. Deiser for what he had done ana tney Degan ine proceedings against him. It is only a quasi criminal prosecution, anyway, but it is giving much thought to a number of costly law vers and to Magistrate Dooley. The case was in court this morning and counsel for Mr.

Deiser submitted a brief in which he sought to show that Deiser was all right, and that had done, nothinc but what was proper. The people of the trust company have made affidavit to the fact that the "devastation" of the buildings by reason of the removal of the Dlumbinc has made them "Incomplete and iinma rlcofn Mp." Deiser's legal talent declares that he is in no sense a wrongdoer; first, because his counsel advised him what to do, and, second, because he did not conceal the fact that he was taking out the plumbing but went there in hi narl ilnvlieht. They claim tnat tor tnat reason he did not wilfully attempt to injure the rights of any one. Then, it is ciaimea in the brief, he could not steal from him oir fnv dm niiimhinc? was his and the prop erty was also his, as shown by tho affidavit of the complainant Schulze. The hearing in the case was postponed until luesunj nexi.
