Music Hall. Il is composed Of delegates
appointed by the governors of large
majority Of the states OF the Union, and
its object is to consider the question of
combination to raise the price Of fuel.
and indirectly to consider the subject Of
trusts. The convention had its origin
in resolution passed last winter by
the Minnesota legislature requesting
the governors of other states to appoint
commissioners to meet and endeavor to
formulate some plan for
Graphing with the Coal Combine.
This resolution provided that the
meeting should be held at such place as
the majority of the governors might
agree upon. Communications were at
once sent out by Governor Nelson, and
as a large majority Of those addressed
voted in favor of Chicago, this city was
decided upon. The convention will be
IN session for two days, and according
to the temper Of the delegates, as mani
tested in the convention. the body will
go beyond the coal combine and

Governor Nelson Speaks.

ton to order and spoke briefly. He
said:
THE workings of the trusts are so
intricate and secret that the courts re-
fuse to define stringent terms. The
laws declare them illegal, but fail to
provide punishment. Relief can only
be obtained through statutory enact
ments which will be sweeping and
searching. It is for this conven ton to
take some action which will lead to the
enactment of efficient laws
Governor Nelson then dissected the
Sherman anti trust law, which he said
was but'an experiment and one which
had resulted in no practical good. Con-
tinuing he said: while the Sherma.
law is An experiment. it will do as an
entering wedge. Il is for us to enlarge
upon ii. 1t is for Us to devise plan to
fight this worst form Of the modern

certed ;;crlo.? between the federal and
state authorities. I suggest that this

mittee on legislation, whose duty it
Will be to devise suitable laws and pro-
vide means to have them passed.

Nh AT I'm E'E..A SESSION.
This thc Day Etun.or Has Set For the
Pronunciation of the Call

Pr"n'EiSat;on of the Call
WASHINGTON. June 6.-From the
Posts ''Dr,ftwood' column it has been
freely predicted that the president
would issue during the day his procla-
nation in calling together an extra ses-
sion. The dates set for the assembly in
the minds Of the prophets run all the
way from July to Oct. l. By far the
larger part of those who discuss the
matter favor Sept. Is. The reasons
given for SO early an issuance of the
call are many and sound. OF late the
financial question has taken a position
of equal prominence with the tariff.
The entire nation is disturbed. There
are plenty Of Democrats who hold some
reform of our money system to be of
even more pressing Importance than
REIMBURSEMENT Of the customs duties
President Cleveland is said to be one of
these. BY one wing Of the Democracy
the repeal OF the Sherman act and a
return to the gold standard is de-
manded. BY another the Sherman law,
or something even more silverish, will
be backed
The president has been painfully in
terested IN the financial situation, and
some Of the hardest work he has done
since entering the White House has
come from his endeavors to find a
solution OF the problem.

represents in this matter banks in
Louisville, Cincinnati, Chicago and
Pittsburg. He came to supplement the
efforts of the committee of distillers
who pleaded with Secretary Carlisle for
an extension of the bonded period, but
failed to convince the secretary that he
could grant their request. Mr.. Shirley
based his argument for relief upon
wholly different grounds. He clai med
that the department could and should
give the distiliers and the banks which
hold their paper, right to export the
product until the tax was paid. In the
operation of the law, Mr.. Shirley ex-
planned, 1t happens that from twenty
rVe to sixty days elapse between the
date on which the bonded period ex-
pires and that on which the revenue
officials actually put the penalty for
falling to pay the tax in force.
That is, the clerical labor connected
with the operation requires or covers al
least that period. MIR. Shirley insisted
that until the actual payment of tax
took place the constitutional right of
export could be exercised. What he
asked the secretary to do, therefore, was
to sanction the export of whisky in
bond, even after the termination of the
exact period of bond. until the day
when payment was actually demanded.
But Mr. Shirley was no more successful
than the diStiliers had been, and he has
gone to New York to try to raise the
amount of money necessary to relieve
the distillers and the banks. The
whisky upon which tax will be due i'll
few days is that which went into bond
in 1890, and large sum of money will
be necessary to relieve it.

BLOOD SHED FREELY.
FIERCE FIGHT BETWEEN LUM5ER
STRIKERS AYD OFFICERS
ON THE DOCKS AT ASHLAND.

Desperate Hand-to- Hand Contest
in Which Revolvers We're
FIourished and Shots Fired
Non.Union Men Struck Down
With Clubs and Terribly Beat
en-Ringleaders Arrested.
ASHLAND. Wis, July 31.-A crisis
was reached in the lumber showers
strike this morning. The strikers openly
detied the officers of the city and cOun-
ty, closing with them in hand to hand
battle, in which blood was shed freely.
The Shores Lumber company sent
word to Mayor O'Keefe that it would
commence loading its boats with non.
union laborers this forenoon, and asked
for police protection. The mayor sent
Chief of Police SchwarZ and some
officers to the docks. where they were
Joined by Sheriff O'Brien and deputies.
They took stand on the tramway of
the dock. Work had hardly commenced
on the dock when a great mob of
strikers Swarmef down over the dock
and tramway. The foremost of them
were f0rcibly handcuffed by the officers,
and others were arrested who were
afterwards rescued from the police by
their fellows. A desperate hand-to-
hand contest followed, in which
revolvers were flourished and several
shots fired. The officers were nearly
all bruised with clubs and stones.
The advance on the tramway was
finally checked. but the strikers then
swung down underneath the tramway
and made for the boats, reaching them
ahead of the officers. There an awful
scene of brutality was enacted by the
violent mob. Non-union men who were
loading the boats were struck down
with clubs aud terribly beaten as they
fed panlc-stricken. followed by the
strikers. They were met by the officers,
who protected them from further VIC
lence. Forty of the ringleaderS among
the strikers have been arrested.
E. A. Shores says lie will sue for
damages, as he has long complainfG
that violence was imminent. Mayor
O'Keefe's blood was up. He says the
president of the Lumber Showers union
had assured him that no violence would
be committed. He now swearS that the
city will protect the non-union labor 1T
any cost
The MOB was composed not only OF
lumber showers, but of coal beavers, ore
punchers and all classes of dock labor
ers. The men have become so intiua-
dated that it is hardly possible to get
them started at work again. Mayor
O'Keefe is now doing hrs best TO gt
them to return to work, where, he says
they will be protected if he has to rails
an army to 90 it.

tWo congressman Have q Discus
sion at the Treasury,
WASHING TON, July 81. For the first
time since the passage of the Sherman
silver law the treasury this morning
failed to buy the full quota of $500, 900
ounces of silver. The total purchase
for the month was 1854, 900 ounces,
leaving shortage of 2,116,0OO ounces
The amount purchased today was
$4,000 ounces, at the figure of
SO.7030 per ounce. The two Populist
members of congress from Colorado,
MeSSrs. Pence and Bell, were at the
treasury today, and had an interview
with Secretary Carlisle and Acting
Mint Director Preston. They were in
Mir. Preston's room at the. time he re-
jected all offers and made the counter
offer of $0.1030 per ounce. Both of
them were much concerned about
what they claimed was an effort of the
treasury department to "bear" the
price of silver in the markets of the
world. The silver men Indicated a pur-
pose to precipitate silver discussions on
the first working day of the extra SEES
sion of congress by resolution of in
qulry as to whether or not the secre-
tary of the treasury has not exceeded
his authority III refusing to purchase
100000 ounces of silver in July, as
provided by the Sherman law.
