Judge Thurston Says 1t Might
Have Been But Wasn't.

CHICAGO. March 14.-Judge John M.
Thurston, of Omaha. who was tempo
rary chairman of the national convention
which nominated Gen. Harrison, said
tonight: 81 am not disappointed in
not being made member of the cab
met. For while L was inclined to
think that / could be of service to the
Northwest as secretary of the interior,
and if l had been made anything that is
what would have liked; but suppose,
if for no other reason, my connection
with railway interests was sufficient to
prevent my selection" Judge Thurston
added that there is no Office which Gen.
Harrison can now offer him that would
be any inducement for him to leave his
present business, and that after all he
is rather glad lie was not made a men,
ber of the cabinet. The judge is re-
turning from Washington. He leaves
here tomorrow for his home in Ne
braSka.

NO AGREEMENT.
The Miners and Operators Fail to
Come to Terms.

Come to Terms.
Special to the Globe.
COLUMBUS, O., March 14.-The joint
convention of Ohio and Pennsylvania
miners and operators continued in ses-
sion all day, with the same blue pros
poets of coming to an agreement upon
scale of prices for mine labor. Almost
the entire day was spent in wrangling,
interspersed occasionally with caucus
of the opposing factions. Later in the
day concessions from the orig
inal demands were made by both
operators and miners as follows: The
operators offer for Hooking coal 60 cents
in summer and 65 cents in winter per
ton; and for Pittsburg coal SO cents in
summer and "a cents in winter per ton.
The miners proposition was for IS
cents the year round for Hooking and
"A cents for Pittsburg coal. No further
concessions were made by either miners
or operators. and consequently no agree
ment resulted. Strenuous efforts were
made by several prominent members of
the convention to bring about an AMIGA
BILE settlement. but without success.
Some bitter strikes may be looked for
in Ohio and Pennsylvania during the
coming summer.

pended the presidents order in cases
where it had not yet been executed.
The Fergus office having been closed
and the property shipped to st. Cloud,
this district does not get any benefit
from the late order. The general opin-
ion is that Register Cowing was too
hasty in complying with the order, and
that the mental operations of the new

ment are curious when they reward the
land officers who do not obey instruc-
tionS promptly and punish those

BUTTE, Mont, March 14.-ThIs morn
ing at GAO smelter building No. 8, To-
Gated at the lower works, Anaconda,
was discovered to be on fire by some ac-
cident. The alarm was not turned into
the old works, which are located one
mile from the lower works, and where
the fire apparatus is kept. When the
engine was put to work it was too late
to save the large Smelter, which is 700
feet long and 800 feet vide. In it are
located thirty Brueckner furnaces and
seventeen matte furnaces. The fire
destroyed the large structure as well
as the large calcine house adjoining.
For a time it was feared the entire
works would be destroyed, but the wind
shifting to the north drove the flames
away from the large silver mill and con-
centrator. The large ore house was
only partially destroyed. 1t will take
probably six months to rebuild the
buildings. Manager DAILY was unable
TO talk until Mr.. Haggin had been heard
from. All sorts of theories have been
advanced as to the origin Of the fire,
some claiming it was the work of an in
cendiary, others that it caught from the
boilers, and others that it was caused
by the escape of hot calcine, but as yet
the origin Is matter of mystery. The
loss is estimated at from 5000, 1000 to $780,
600, but these are only guesses, as the
cOmpany's officials refuse to talk on the
subject. The fire will, in addition to
the loss of the company, have the eff
feet of throwing about 1900 men out of
employment: 500 at the smelter and 500
at the group of mines in Butte known
as the Chambers syndicate, owned by
the cOmDanV which closed clown To-
night. 1t is not known Ihether the
company will rebuild or not, as Man
ager Daily. who is III Butte, positively
refuses to be interviewed, but it is
more than probable that it will, as the
loss reduces the production of matte
fully one-half. The entire works have
been treading 2,500 tons of ore per day,
SO an estimate of the loss can be readily
seen and appreciated.

The Union Pacific Makes a Deal

Canon.
Special to the Globe.
HELENA, Mont, March 14.-About
two weeks ago the Union Pacific rail
road sent large body of men into JEFF
ferson canon, with the avowed inten-
tion of completing the line commenced
two years ago, from point on the
Utah & Northern to Helena. The OBJ
ject of the move was apparent. when
the NOrHlern Pacific announced its in
tention to build an Independent
line to Butte, and it was
known it must use the canon.
The Union Pacific announced that
the Butte extension, released it from
its agreement to keep out of Helena,
and it would have road into this city
in two months. Both sides sent bodies
of men into the canon. The Union
Pacific's expenses in the fight are esti-
mated at $4,000 day. After few days
the Northern Pacific drew out. To-day
the engineer in charge of the Union
Pacific forces arrived here and an
nounced that his company had sold the
Northern Pacific its roadbed in Jeffer-
son canon. Officials of the Northern
Pacific cOrroborate this, and say the
road will push its line from Helena to
Butte.
