CLEVELAND, O.. Nov 19-Nothing has
as yet been heard from the large pro
peller Pontiac, the sister ship Of the
Gilcher, which recently went down with
ali on board in Lake Michigan.
The Pontiac cleared from Marquette
Thursday morning with a cargo of ore
and has not been heard from since. Her
owners fear that she foundered in the
storm that prevailed on Lake Superior
Thursday night and yesterday.
The Pontiac was due az Sault Ste Marie
yesterday IL was at FIRST thought that
she might have taken shelter be-
hind Grand island, but her owners would
have almost certainly heard from her by
telegraph If she were safe.
The only hope now entertained for the
Pontiac, is that she may have drifted
across TO the north shore Of Lake Superior,
beyond the range Of telegraphic communi-
cation. She is captained by James b.
Of Lowe, Cleveland, and has q crew of
eighteen men.
No list Of the latter can be obtained,
the captain having failed to forward one
TO the owners OF the vessel when she

leging that the officers of the united body
have treacherously used their position to
destroy the X. of l.. part of the joint or
ganization. Some pretty strong speeches
were made in support of the proposition.
The general sentiment was that policy OF
consolidation had been tried long enough.
The talk ended with a reference of the
matter TO the executive board, which was
instructed to see that the interests Of the
order We're considered.
The question of compelling members to
withdraw from the Federation Of Labor
was then taken up and long discussion
ensued. The feeling was strongly against
the leaders of the federation, but the opin
ion prevailed that there was no cause fol
difference between the rank and file of the
two organizations. The proposition, there.
fore, was voted down-S2 to 20.
But little surface interest is apparent re-
garding the election of officers. 1t is prao-
tically conceded that Grand Master Pow
