INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 24.-Ths thirteenth
annual meeting Of the American Poultry
Association, which began here this alter
noon, came near breaking up In a row.
The trouble began over proposition to
elect P. Il. Jacobs, OF Hsmmonton, N. j.,
and W. q. Woodward, Of Chicago, mem.
bers Of the Association, to which there
was strong objection, on the ground that
Mr.. Jacobs, as editor Of the Poultry Ketper,
has been very severe in his criticisms OF
the present standard Of scoring. He has
maintained that the standard gave more
attention to fuss and feathers than TO mest
and poultry. Breeders claim that his
agitation has greatly injured the business.
The objections 10 Woodward were en-.
tirely personal. After very spirited dis
cussion, however, both were admitted.
Jacobs again proved to be disturbing
element when the nominating committee
presented report on the election Of Off
GERS, recommending Philander Williams,
OF Taunton, Mass, for President, and Wal.
ter Elliott, Of Shelbyvflle, Ind, for Treas.
urer and Secretary. Jacobs Immediately
proposed F. A. Mortimer, Of Pottsville,
Pa, in opposition to Williams, but the
gag rule was applied and the committee's
report was adopted. Jacobs aud his fol-
lowers then withdrew from the meeting
and tonight returned home. The meet
ing Is very important one, as this is the
year for revising the standard Of excel

REPLY TO THE MINERs.
Their vorGIon Of the Agreement With the
Reading Company.

Reading Company.
PoTTsVILLE, Pa, Jan. A,-The Miners
Joint Committee has prepared an answer
to President Corbin's statement.
"The document recites the history oi
the agreement between the miners and
the company. and says that 1t was accept
ed by all parties concerned, as 1t could not
be expected thatRny person or committee
OF average intelligence would enter into
an agreement with the receivers binding
on the men that would not be binding on
the company, and this was the view taken
OF the matter by both sides when the
memorandum was under consideration.
The miners reply continues: "Mr.
Corbin's statement that during these four
months the miners were paid, in addition
to basis wages, the sum Of $24l ,908, Ia good
evidence that for ten years back the min
era have been paid at least that amount
less for every four months than they were
entitled TO receive. Whatever Mr.. Cor
bins iniormotion may be as to the reason
why the miners refused to continue work
after the first Of January, we have only
TO say that the miners quit work because
the company refused the advance asked
for and would not agree to arrange meet
ing with the committee for the purpose Of
agreeing to arbitrate the question as was
done in September last. the miners have
no desire to drive the company out Of the
competitive market, nor to compel 1t to
resort to any business policy unfair TO its
patrons or consumers"
The committee says II ig an open ques-
ton whether or not the sohuylkill miners
receive as much for their LABOR "a miners
in other localities, and concludes: "What
the miners desire is not 90 much a simple
advance in wages as 1t 10 to establish liv-
ing basis wsges for all kinds Of work to be
equitAbly advanced in pro-
portion to the price OF coal"
