THE IOWA w. G. T. u.
THE NON PARTISAN QUESTION
WARMLY DISCUSSED,
Mrs. Fosters Forces Garry the Day and
60 In. For Partisan Non-Partisanship
The Malcontents Reorganize.

DEs MONIES, Iowa, Oct. 16.--There was
warm time at the state convention of
the Women's Christian Temperance
Union, today. The non-partisan ques-
tion was brought up. Mrs. J. Ellen
Foster, who with others left the national
convention last year, warmly cham
pioned the non-partisan course. There
was bitter discussion in which some of
her opponents attacked her for her SYM
.pathies with the Republican party.
Mrs. Foster replied that she, as an Amer
ican woman, clung to her right to exer-
else her liberty under the constitution.
She was an intense Republican. A
woman could be an intense Democrat,
and yet be non-partisan in the work
for temperance. A lady arose and asked
If a woman's opinions as partisan
should not be recognized in this conven-
ton, and Mrs. Foster replied emphatic
ally: "No; there is absolutely no poll
tics in this convention" Finally, after
an all day struggle, the Iowa union voted
to be no longer identified with the ma
tional union, headed by Miss Willard.
The vote was 315 to 6S. The dissenters
withdrew with the intention of forming
an Iowa union on the third party basis.

AN IMMENSE FAILURE.
Michigan's Leading Lumber and Sal
Baron Assigns.

Michigan's Leading Lumber and Salt
Baron Assigns.
MANIsTEE, Mich, Oct. 16.-R. Y. Pc
ters assigned today. 1t is the largest
financial crash in this state in years, and
comes from source least expected.
Peters was leading spirit in a
score of big enterprises, and was
baron in the lumber and salt
trade. The assignment covers mil
lions of dollars worth of property and
will be far-reaching in its effects. No
schedule of assets or liabilities has yet
been filed here. From outside reliable
sources it is said the liabilities will be
fully s3,000,000, with assets in various
banks, lumber companies, salt mines, etc.
The plant here has made enormous profits
but the outside ventures as rule have
been disastrous, especially Alabama and
North Carolina lumber ventures. 1t is
thought the assets in Manistee,
Grand Rapids, and lands of the
northern peninsula and southern
handled will cover the liabilities.
1t is stated that the only banks likely to
suffer are in Manistee,. Muskegon and
Grand Rapids, as it is said the Detroit
banks for short time past have de-
clined Peters paper.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Get. 16.-The
first effects of the great Peters failure
were felt here tonight, when it was an
nounced that the firm of Arthur Meigs
4 Co., in which Peters is interested, had
filed mortgages aggregating nearly $780,
O0O, covering all their property.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 16.-The ships R.
R. Thomas, Captain Coulson, from New
York, and Alexander McCullum, Cap
tain O'Brien, from Baltimore, arrived
here today with scurvy on board. There
we're four cases on the Thomas and
seven on the McCullum. The sailors
on the McCullum were in a horrible
condition, their bodies being covered
with running sores; their gums were
black and swollen and hid their teeth.
The men said that during the 154 days
passage they had not tasted vegetables
OF any sort, and the meat given them
was putrid. Thomas Hays and James
Masure had become blind as the result
of the disease. The quarantine officers
will report the case to the United States
authorities. During the voyage Second
Mate Hooper of the Thomas was lost
overheard.
Stanford Talks Tariff.
Senator Stanford, in an interview to-
day, sald "The recent tariff legislation
is most excellent thing for the people
all the way through. This bill has kept
steadily in view the great principle of
protection to our labor, and that prin-
ciple which teaches we should as far as
possible do our own work. In that re-
spect it is greater protective tariff than
any other. There is vast number of
idlers in the country. Our war took
away two million young male labor
ers of the country, but it acted as
great stimulus to labor, and
we had a greater productive
power at the end Of the war than we had
when it commenced. Though the effect
of the tariff is to maintain wages
throughout the country, and though we
may have to buy many things of our
own production at a higher rate than
that for which we could buy them abroad
yet the money is never lost to us; it is
merely transferred from one citizen to
another. All we do in that wav is so
much saved. The bill will stimulate
manufactures throughout the United
States. ss @~A r.
AFreight Wreck.
A freight wreck occurred at West
Oakland today, in which number OF
cars were badly smashed and several
trainmen had a narrow escape. An east
bound fast freight was standing on the
track near Sixteenth street station,
when train of eight cars which was
being backed up from the yard and was
running at lively rate of speed, tele-
scoped the caboose and rear cars. One
of the trainmen on top of the train,
called to those inside to escape, and then
jumped from the train. A freight
car piled upon the caboose, which was
crushed. Three trainmen, who were in
side at the forward end, had a narrow
escape, but were uninjured.

LOCOMOTIVE ENGINEERS
THE BROTHERHOOD'S ANNUAL
OPEN MEETING.
Addresses by Chauncey M. Depew and
Chief Engineer rArthur-The Federation
Question and Other Matters.

PTrsBURG, Oct. 16.-The International
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
held its annual open meeting in the
Grand opera house this afternoon. A
number of letters were read from promi-
nent gentlemen, expressing regret at
their inability to be present. Among
them were Governor Campbell, OF Ohio
Governor Beaver, of Pennsylvania
George w. Childs, OF Philadelphia
President Roberts OF the Pennsylvania
railroad, and other prominent railroad
officials. After prayer by Grand Chap
lain Sorrity, Mayor Gourley welcomed
the delegates to the city. Chairman
Adams then introduced Hon. Chauncey
M. Depew, president of the New York
Central railroad company. The appear
ance of the distinguished gentleman was
a signal for the widest applause. When
order had been restored, Mr.. Depew pro-
ceeded to deliver an address, which was
listened to with great interest. Several
times he was compelled to pause, owing
to the deafening applause OF his hearers.
Grand Chief Engineer Arthur was
next introduced and enthusiastically re-
ceived. He congratulated the brother
hood on the healthy condition of its
affairs, and said in part: Though there
is oneness OF purpose, there is a diver
sity of opinion, and we hope during the
course of our debates to find an equation
by which the problem of our difficulties
and differences may be solved. 1t is by
honorable action that we have achieved
success as a labor organization, not by
might, not by loud boastful assertions of
what, owing 10 our number, we might
compel corporations to do. No, that has
never been our policy. We ask but our
fair, just dues nothing more. If there
have been those who would array labor
against capital, am not one of them,
or with them. If there be those who
regard the interests of labor and capital
as naturally and properly antagonistic,
/ do not agree with them. The interests
of labor and capital are identical, or, to
be more accurate, reciprocal. Any argu-
ment respecting labor topics which does
not distinctly recognize and concede the
truth of this proposition, must needs be
fallacious, and, as matter of fact, it is
recognized and conceded by all eminent
authorities on the subject"
The insurance feature of the brother
hood was touched upon at length by the
speaker. During the last fiscal year the
brotherhood has paid to widows and
orphans and disabled members, $322,-
500, making grand total of SO, 122, $3.50.
Addresses were also made by num-
Der of delegates.
Referring to Chicago telegram stat
ing that party of western engineers
had left for this city to champion the
cause of federation, First Grand AS
sistant Engineer Hayes said 81 know
nothing about them. We anticipate no
trouble when the time comes for con-
sidering the question of federation. 1
understand majority of the western
delegates favor such plan, but as to
what the outcome will be, will not
venture an opinion"
