The Ladies Floral society, which
is composed of a membership Of
representative ladies of both the
East and West sides of the city,
have prepared a prayer" which
will be laid before the councils of
the city, at their next regular
meetings, praying" them to pass
a stock law, They claim that it is
impossible to have flower yards or
gardens, with educated COWS and
hogs running at large, The city
has grown so big Of late, in terri.
tory, that we fear the ordinance
will not pass, ulness designated
territory is named, as a limit inside
of which the cattle are to be kept
up. There are many drawbacks to
a stock law as well as hardships on
the owners of cattle, The small
boy, for instance, has been known
to drive cattle inside of the limits
of the city when a stock law was in
force, to earn cigarette money, and
the same tactics would be resorted
to again we fear, should a similar
law be in force. We are in favor
and have always been an advocate
Of a stock law, but believe the other
side, those not in favor, should have
a voice or "a day in court" before
the ordinance is put on its passage,
or the prayer granted,

A Sensation in the Mine Workers
Convention.
DID M'BRIDE TRY TO BRIBE Wild?
The Former Accused of Being
DisIoyaI.
HE EXPLAINS HIS ACTION

COLUMBUS, Ohio, February IA SEN
sation was sprung today in the meeting OF
the United Mine Workers of America.
Mark Wild district organizer of the Amer
ican Railway Union, under Mr.. Debs, being
granted the floor, stated that last summer,
when the A. r. u. were trying to stop the
running of trains on the Hooking Valley
re ad, John Mcbride, at that time president
of the United Mine Workers, gave him 500
to induce a settlement of the strike Of the
railroad men on that road.
Mr.. Mcbride was not present when this
statement was made, but upon coming in
to the convention said he did give Wild
the money as a charitable donation from
some of the coal operators. the strike on
the road having been previously overcome
by the railroad company.
Mr.. Mcbride said: None of the money
came from the railroad company
A committee was appointed by the min
ers' convention to investigate and report
upon the subject in controversy between
Wild and Mcbride.
The cause of the convention permitting
Wild, who is not n miner or delegate, to
speak was the challenge, Wednesday even
ing, by Mcbride to either miners or rail-
road men who participated in the strikes
of last summer to show that he had acted
Unfairly or had not been square in any act
of duty which he performed. When he
made this challenge the convention was
considering a resolution proposing vote
of confidence in its national officers. who
had been accused by A. A. Adams of Ohio
with having settled the strike corruptly,
giving the miners lower wages than they
might otherwise have obtained
This opened the way for Mr. Wild to ask
to be heard. Mr. Wild admitted frankly
that he took the package, not knowing
what was in it until he got 1t home when
he decided to use the money to help Adams
in his fight against the miners national
officers.
Mr. McBrfde's explana ton was that Mr.
Wild had come to him during the railroad
strike and besought him to pull the miners
into strike also, SO the road would not
have Goa, to haul.
This Mcbride declined to do.
Then, after the railroad company had de-
feated Wild who was one of its conductors.
the coal operators made up a purse,
amounting to what they assumed would be
a years sala V to Wild, and asked Mcbride
to give the money to him charitable
donation. When Mcbride gave Wild the
money, lit was accompanied by kind re-
quest by Mcbride that Wild keep quiet
from the time on"
Mr. Mcbride said: 'The operators told
me to give Wild the money, because he
would need it, and had stepped out of the
way to allow the railroad company to maui
the coal which was then being mined.
In closing. MIR Mcbride repeated with en-
pfasis that the money had no bearing
" whatever on the railroad strike, as II had
been settled.
MrWild's speech to the convention states
that he received the $500 two or three
days after the railroad strike had been set
tied"

THE RIVER PROBLEM.
The Ice Continues Firm The Talk
Along the Water Front.

The situation the river front is un-
changed. The rivermen are in the dark as
to what disposition the Commissioners VIII
make of the tug question. The belief that
the local tugs are not strong enough for
the ice continues firm. Yesterday Mr.
John Callahan, superintendent of the Nor
folk and Washington Steamboat Company,
went down by rail to the southern end OF
the route to look the field over and see
what can be done towards bringing the
propeller Washington, now at Norfolk
heavily laden with freight, to this port
Although the ice is acknowledged to be
the worst ever known, and despite the fact
that the propeller Norfolk tried to cut
through a day or SO back. yet it is under
stood that Mr.. Callahan will try to force
the Washington up the river The venture
will be watched closely by the marine pop
ulation of Washington. 1t is settled that
the tug Pennwood Of Baltimore will he
unavailable for duty here. as she starts
tow two steel barges and new tug for
service in Cuban waters The Samson is
at Boston, but could be brought down here
within a few hours If demanded Alto
gether, things were never so desolate and
uncertain at the front as they are today.
To Clear the River.
The Commissioners today received bids
from Baltimore tug owners and also from
the Washington river men, for the work of
clearing the channel through the ice in the
Potomac. Both bids We're estimated on a
Per diem basis, and not for completing the
entire task at fixed price. The Balti-
more men submitted proposition to send
around three tugs to be put to work
crushing through the ice at $500 per day,
or 500 fer each tug. The local river men
submitted bid to supply four tugs. Their
bid was more complicated and was based
on an estimate of the tonnage of the diff
fercnt tugs. Added up, the price OF the
four tugs would be in the neighborhood of
$50 per day, but 1T is said that the local
tugs are considerably smaller than those
f1om Baltimore. The appropriation for
clearing the channel is practically available
now, but up to late hour this afternoon
the Commissioners had not given the con-
tract for doing tho work.
