the decline in coal. Coos Bay WAS again
marked down 81, making the present quota
ton 81 per ton-qutte contrast with the
lately ruling quotation of Sill. The Seattle
Goals were also marked down from SI1 to
$40. The fact is, all Goals are sbaky and
the market shows pronounced tendency
toward lower prices. Coal is arriving from
Great Britain. The coast mines are rushing
IN all they can before the expected break
occurs, and within sixty days we shall re-
celve steady shipments in large Quantities
from Australia. These facts, coupled with
the recent dry. calm weather, have broken
the back Of the coal deal. and nobody, ex-
cept the mine-owners, will be sorry. Dear
coal. as previously remarked in this column,

There promises to be lively contest for
the presidency of the Council of Federated
Trades On Friday night when the semi-an-
nual election is held. Until few days ago
it seemed to be an assured fact that Alfred
Thurman would be reelected. but move
ment has been started among certain trades
unions to defeat him. Carpenters and join
ers' unions, Nos. 4S3 and 49,, met on Monday
night and No. 707 last light to consider the
matter. The unions adopted resolutions in
dorsing Charles Grambarth for the chair
manship of the council. and urged him to
accept the nomination. He has decided to
become candidate. and the unions which
oppose the reelection of the present regime
are confident of his success. They claim
that Grambarth's election is necessary to in
sure harmony and the proper protection of
organized labor.

The Coast Seamen'S Union has received
letter from Congressman Lawler of Illinois,
who says he has met Congressman Dingley,
author of the Dingley Shipping Act, and
that an agreement has been made to oppose

letter stated that the agreement would be
etfectual in preventing the passage of the

been SO vigorously opposed by the union.

maritime legislation

how queer things turned out sometimes.
He didn't tell me, but had first-rate
fellow on the lookout with him, and they
got confidential the first night. 1t seems he
had dream about some woman, which he
knew meant trouble of some kind. And he
mentioned, madam, that the lady in the
dream wore a white dress, with little
blue shawl round her neck and crossed
over her waist. The day l saw you-the
day you told me about what you had seen
you wore white dress with little blue
shawl over your shoulders and crossed like
this. 1t wasn't a usual dress with the ladies
/ had seen, and | noticed it. So did he.
There's no doubt about it, there has been
some kind of outside work going on which
we don't understand. There's been, as you
might say, double dream, and you've
OWNED lit. And it's very near ended all
Jim Reeder's dreams. He'll find the rest Of
1t pretty stern reality"
David and l came home in silence. 1t has
always been subject we approach with re-
luctaDce and seriousness. 1t has never been
explained. Like many another of the same
kind, it never will be explained lere. David
Leslie is a good man. l have perfect faith
in him. and know he means what he says
when he denies the attempt to influence me
through will power" or any other power
save that of love. l dare not tell him SO,
but, ell the same, l believe that l never
would have had this experience if he had
not been on that train and in every heart
of that distressing affair. l was there in
spirit because he was there. But the thing
never occurred again. L suppose because
all my will-power was on the alert to pre-
vent any such subversion of 1t.
Jim Reeder died in prison before his trial
l am truly thankful for it. David did all he
could for him, and he hopes ne repented of
his past. But he never confessed, and never
admitted any knowledge Of the woman, nor
of the child who. brought to see him, was
never sure that it was Jim, who used to
live there" The detective has no doubts to
this day. So it rests.-Frank LeSlie's.
