DEBS’ NEAR SCHEME

The Labor Leader Wants 100,000 Men

to Go to the Far West.

WASHINGTON IS SELECTED.

Railroad Company Would Net Donate the
Land In Utah—The Successor to the
Old American Railway Union.
Details of the Plan.

Chicago, June 16.—It is announced by
friends of Eugene V. Debs that the
American Railway union is dead.

After the public announcement today
at the convention in Handel hall the
delegates adjourned to Uhlich’s hall
and the E. V. Debs social colonization
scheme was launched.

A constitution will be adopted mod-
eled upon the Bellamy theory, the state
of Washington being selected as the
scene of the experiment. .

here must pay a small admission fee,
together with an annual per capita tax.

The conVentibn will draw up a set of
rules and regulations governing the ad—
mission of new members, and all mem-
bers will be required to pass a sort of
civil service examination before names
can be enrolled.
I Mr. Debs said that he was positive a
peaceful army of 100,000 unemployed
men could 'be mobilized in Chicago
within ten days.

“It is expected that the first division
‘will leave Chicago, bound for Washing-
tOn, Within 30 days, and possibly before.

Utah Talked of T00.

Omaha, June 16.—The officials of the
Union Pacific railway have received a
communication from Eugene Debs rela-
tiveto his' co—operative commonwealth
scheme in Utah, '

Debs desires a large concession of
land, embracing many hundreds of
acres. The railroad company has plen-
ty of land in that country of the kind
Debs wants, suitable for an agricul-
tural community as well as commercial
enterprises. It is valuable and on the
market at good figures.

The matter of transportation for the
members of Debs’ company will be ar-
ranged as with many other colonies
desiring land, but with the land dona-
tion proposition it is different.

It is and always been the policy of
the Union Pacific company to donate
land for colonies to a limited extent
and to encourage immigration by such
means along its line, but the Debs
scheme is much more elaborate than
the company has ever been called upon
to deal with before.

SIBYL SANDERSON WEDDED?
It Is Reported That She Is Now the Wife
of Millionaire Terry.

London, June 16.—It is reported here
today that Antonio Terry and Sibyl
Sanderson are man and wife. ‘

The story is that the millionaire and
the diva went to the island of Jersey
yesterday and were quietly married.

The report, while apparently not be-
lieved by friends of the contracting par-
ties, has been generally accepted as
true.

 

Antonio Terry has made several at-
tempts ‘to secure a divorce from his
wife, in order, it is said, to marry Miss
Sanderson.

Terry is a Cuban by birth, naturalized
in New York city. His first wife was
Miss Grace Dalton Secor of that city.
Much of their married life has been
spent abroad, and of late years they
have resided permanently, although
separately, in Paris.

'Antonio Terry’s vast fortune was
made in Cuba. His father, Thomas
Terry, the Cuban “sugar king,” was
said to be worth $50,000,000. He owned
vast estates in various sections of the
island. ‘

Sibyl Sanderson is an American, the
daughter of Judge Sanderson Of Cali-
fornia. Her triumphs on the operatic
stage abroad have for years been a
matter of record.

She is considered one of the greatest
beauties in the French capital. This
palm was awarded.to her by popular
vote. An album containing photo-
graphs .of such beauties as deserve the
name was circulated with the request
that a vote be made for _-the chief
beauty. Miss Sanderson received the
third largest number, the two women
leading her being Cleo de Merode and
Wanda de Boneza.

The Terry divorce case was begun
four years ago. Mrs. Terry applied for
temporary alimony, and the court
granted her $400 a month and the cus-
tody of her daughter Natica. Terry ap-
pealed from theddecision, and in,review
the court increased alimony to $1,000 a.
month.

On appeal Mrs. Terry filed a petition
against her husband, naming six core-
spondents, and her husband allowed
judgment to be taken against him by
default. He subsequently preferred
counter charges, but his wife retaliated
by adding the name of Miss Sanderson
to the list of corespondents.

HAWAIIAN ANNEXATION.

Comment of London Newspapers—Hint
That Japan May Object.

London, June 16.—All the, afternoon
newspapers discuss the Hawaiian ques-
tion and the proposition to annex those
islands to the United States. The Globe
says: “The question is essentially in-
ternational and cannot be' disposed of
by the decree of one power alone. Great
Britain (and. France are in the same
position toward‘Hawaii as the United
States, and in our case, if Hawaii is
converted into a strong naval station,
it will practically Command the alter—
native route between Vancouver, Aus-
tralia and the far east, and Great Brit—
ain has every right to be consulted be—
fore the scheme is carrled further.
Lord Salisbury’s consent should not be
given unless a quid pro quo is given for
tearing up the present treaty.”

The Pall Mall Gazette says: "It
seems probable that Hawaii will be
under the stars and stripes soon; and
nobody here will _say a word against it.
W'e should be glad to see Hawaii an
American rather than any other col-
ony.”

The Westminster Gazette says:
“Great Britain will not object to the
annexation of Hawaii, though it re-
mains to fi‘ seen how Japan will take
America‘s action.”

To Reduce a Bank’s Stock.

. Senator Tillman’s Hatest.
