be held at Springfield, Ills, July 2, 3
aud 4, aud then the proposed union will
probably be effected. President DebS
stated that there is little doubt that the
alliance will be effected without op-
position.
The platform which will probably be
adopted at the Springfield convention
will contain the following planks:
Compulsory education, direct legisla-
tion for the laborer, legal eight hour
work day, sanitary inspection OF work
shop, mine and home, liability OF en-
plOyers for injury TO health, body or
life, the abolition OF contract system In

The List OF Probable Starters Growing
Decidedly Smaller-ChaacssO of Ramapo
and Sport.
New YORK, June 90.-The Suburban
handicap will be run tomorrow.
Disappointment is keen at the pros
pect that Clifford will not start. The
horse seems to have all his speed, but in
his last two trials stopped perceptibIy
after the end of mile and unless ap-
pearauces are deceptive and have been
arranged to be deceptive, Clifford will
hardly be factor in to-morrow's race,
and in fact is not likely to start.
The field, in the event OF the absence
Of Clifford, Lamplighter and ST. Leon
ard, will be ordinary, not as good as
that which faced the starter in the
Metropolitan handicap, and nothing
like which went TO the post for the
500. 900 prize in the Brooklyn handics p.
The list Of starters will come from
the following: Ajax, lis; BaSSetlaw,
ia; Banquet, lis; Charade, Ill; Com
manche, ll2; Copyright, los; Don Alon-
20. ll9: Herald, 100; Henry OF Navarro,
los, Kin Lee. 10; PicKpocket, 110;
Ramapo, 12O; Sir Walter, 100; Sport,
ia; Stowaway, 100,
With Tara up, Ramapo is certain to
go TO the post favorite, and il does not
look now as though anything could beat
him, unless Sport, with his lighter
weight, should take notion to
do his best, in which case
there would be horse race.
Rsmapo never looked better than
he did in his gallop this morning. Sport
looked the picture OF health and moved
without 3 false break or q particle Of
temper.
King Lee pleased the critics very
much In his work. Banquet moved a
mile at GrSvesend 10 fine shape with
Paul Fox In the saddle. Charsde also
did his work at GrSvesend aud
did well. Stowsway worked q
mile and q quarter In 2:101S. Those

upon him Mr.. Wiman made no audible
reply. In passing sentence Judge ID-

For long period, you constantly
appropriated the money Of your asso-
ciates. You resorted to forgery TO &C
cOmplish your purpose. Mr.. Dun trust

that there was cOntributory negligence

you did. l cannon believe that. Every

had no such right On the other hand,
the jury have recommended clemency.
I wish TO give full force and effect 10
that recommendation. I also wish 10
express appreciation 10 the jury for the
way they performed their duty. l also

WASHINGTON, June 2o.-Rapid pro-

Only sixtY-one pages Of the bill. the
Income tax and internal revenue fea-

end OF the long debate seems close AZ

friction, both sugar and wool, the great
controversial items, contrary to expec-

yea and nay vote was demanded on
striking sugar from the free list, while
the final struggle on free wool was
postponed until the bill should be
REPORTED TO THE SENATE.
The administrative features of the bill
(sections 90 10 IS inclusiys) were

TO ABOLISH TIE LORDS
The Anti-Lords Conference In Session In
Leeds.

LEEDS, ENGLAND. June 90. Two
| thousand delegates were present to-day
in Albert Hall when Mr.. Spence Wat
son called the Anti-Lords Conference to
order. The Conference was organized
by the National Liberal Federation. and
= com nittee of that body submitted the
following resolutions:
First-That the power now exercised
by the House OF Lords to mutilate and
reject measures passed oy the repre-
sentativss of the people In the House OF
Commons has been systematically used
to defeat reforms, is Inconsistent with
the right of free popular self-govern-
ment aud should cease TO exist
Second-That the meeting call upon
the government to introduce measure
for the abolition Of the Lords veto pow
err, by providing that whenever 3 bill
passed by the Commonsshall be altered
or rejected by the Lords the same bill
may be reaffirmsd by the Commons,
with or without such alteration, and be
subject only to the royal assent, and
thereupon become law.
Third-That the meating insures the
government Of the resolute support OF
the party in any steps that may De
deemed necessary to enforce the pass
age of this great constitutional reform.
Contrary to expectations, few OF the
delegates present were men or note.
After a brief discussion the first resolu-
tion was adopted as proposed. For the
second resolution Mr.. Labouchere
moved a substitute declaring that the
Lords being useless and dangerous
ought to be abolished. and calling upon
the government to introducea measurs
for the abolition OF the House OF Lords.
Mr.. Labouchere met with an enthusias'
tic reception, and during the speech
which he made upon his substitute he
declared that self-govern was a
farce so long as hereditary legislators
existed.
Sir Wilfred Lawson, In seconding
Mr.. Labouchere's amendment, said the
members Of the House OF Lords were de-
scended from the greatest set OF rascals
and reprobates on the face OF the earth.
Their teeth will be drawn and they will
be forever left sitting as representatives,
Of Mediav9l monstroslty. They are
hereditary miscreants and ought TO be
swept away.
Mr.. Labouchere's amendment was
lost by large majority. The chairman
announced there were many other
amend ments proposed, but the meeting
decided to vote on the original resolu-
tion, which was carried with en-.
thuslasm.

Terrible Maltreatmsnt of Miners and

Families Driven From Their
Homes Without Breakfast Into

Enciente, Beaten Over the
Head With Winchester Rifle.
Her Baby Born Dead-Hustled
Like Cattle Into Box Cars.

FORT SMITH, ARK, June 20,-Details
of horrible affairs in the mining region
OF the Indian Territory have been
brought by evlcted miners. The stories
OF oppression, hardship and cruelty by
the marshals and the federal troops are
similar to those which come from Siberia.
Power was given the marshals TO eject
them from the company's houses.
Many of the men were thrown
bodily from their homes, their wives
and children beaten and bruised, and
their furniture destroyed, after which
they were loaded into box cars like cat
tie and shipped out of the territory.
August Smith says, last Thursday
troops came to his house and
arrested him. They would not, allow
him to put on his shoes aud coat and
refused to let the family eat breakfast.
The soldiers threw his furniture into a
wagon and then asked Smiths wife II
she wanted to 60. NO" she said. 81

ordered my wife and five children put
out. They jumped at her, one OF them
drawing a knife, and took the baby
from her breast. Then four or five
threw her head first into the wagon.
At the station we were put in box car.
Most OF the families were thrown out in
a driving rain and no time given
them to dress or eat breakfast. In one
instance family OF four were evicted
near Anderson. The wife Of the evict-
ed miner was struck over the head
with Winchester and severely NAL
treated by the soldiers. The woman
was enciente at the time, and while
being carted to the railroad station,
gave premature birth to dead child.
The mother is In a critical condition
