DEPENDS ON PENNSYLVANIA.
Mcbride Has No Information Concern
ing Conference of Indiana Miners.

A conference, it is reported, will be held
next Monday between the miners and the
mine operators of Indiana, concerning the
present scale of wages which is about to
expire. John Mcbride, president of the
American Federation Of Labor, was form
erly president of the Mine Workers OF
America. He was succeeded in the presi-
dency by p. II. Penna, of Linton, Ind.
Mr.. Mcbride has had no information con-
corning a conference. He says, however,
that it is probable that one will be held
as the miners and operators meet together
once a year to talk about prices: It is
understood thai the situation in Indiana
will depend largely upon the result of the
strike in Pennsylvania. In the Pitrsburg
district about eight thousand miners are
receiving So cents a tom In a few OF the
mines the men are working for 10 cents
and several thousand are striking against
a reduction of the 69-cent rate. In Indiana
and Ohio the men are getting 60 cents a
ton for bituminous coal and 70 cents for
block coal. If the men in the Pittsburg dis
trict are defeated in their effort to keep
the scale up to So cents it is thought the
mine operators in Indiana will declare a
reduction. Mr.. Mcbride says that it is i'm
possible to say what the outcome OF the
Pennsylvania strike will be.

and whose life is of the slow, plodding kind

night and considered several ordinances.
The ordinance for the annexation of Ma
pleton, which is just east and northeast of
Crown Hill, was the most important. Two
reports will be made. Messrs. Merritt and
Krause f~avoring the annexation and Messrs.
Rauh, Stott, Allen and Costello opposing it.
Mr.. Merritt favors it because he believes
that the majority of the resident property
owners want to come into the city, while
those opposed to it take their position be-
cause they do not think it would be a good
move for the city. They argue that the
city cannot receive any taxes from the new
territory for two years, which, however,
would probably be true at any time the
annexation might be made. The petition
for the annexation contained forty-three
names, but four of them afterward signed
a remonstfance, while the remonstrance
contained only ~thirty-three names, and of
that number eleven were nonresidents.
The committee decided to m the
ordinance authorizing the street commits
sioner to appoint an assistant street fore
man.
City Sanitarian Wynn was before the
committee asking an appropriation of $500

ton has not been approved by the controller,

except to decide to ask the Council to re-

preparation. Of the amount asked for $500

DR.. Wynn did not include a microscope in
the estimate, as he has one which he will
use for the present.

A NEW 100000 BUILDING.
and Stamping Company Has to
Have More ~COmmOdfOus Quarters.

The indianapolis Chain and Stamping Com
pany yesterday closed a deal for a site for a
new building and work will begin at once
on it. The company bought the lot at the
southeast corner of Mississippi and Georgia
streets, and will at once erect a building on
it two stories high and 120 by $50 feet. The
new building will cost about $50, 900 and will
be planned especially for the work of max
ing bicycle chains. The plans have already
been prepared and the contract will be let
in a few days. This building was necessi-
tated by the crowded condition of the room
occupied at the present time by the COM
pany. The output of the works has grown
in the few years of it's existence from about
125 chains a day to loo, and now orders
cannot be promptly filed The new building
will be large enough to increase the capacity
three-fold. As soon as the building is fin
ished the capacity will be doubled and the
remainder of the space will be reserved for
future growth.

BOTH SIDES TO BE HEARD.
Appointing hoard Will Hear MOnu-

Appointing board Will Hear MOnu-
ment Commission Grievances.
There was no meeting yesterday of the
monument appointing board, owing to the
absence of several members of the commits
sion. A meeting cannot be held now until
some time next week.. Governor Matthews
said yesterday to Secretary of State Owen
and Auditor Daily that the words quoted
as from him in yesterdays Journal were
spoken in jest, and that he had no thought
of proceeding to the appointment of regents
without their cooperation. The business OF
the first meeting of the commission was cut
short, owing to an engagement that the
Governor had forgotten when the meeting
was called, and the sentiment of the session
was one of harmony. The members of the
board favor the appointment of two Repub-
licans and one Democrat as regents, but the
Democrat will be, it is said, a soldier. At
the meeting of the board Att~orney-general
Ketcham, according to his request OF long
standing, was asked to be present and dis
close his grievance against the former pres
ident of the monument commission. He was
given a hearing, and it is probable that the
other side will ask for a hearing.

THE vIADUCT IMPRACTICABLE.
City Engineer Browns Sudden
ChanUQ NJ 0ufufou-

Yesterday City Engineer Brown made a
report to the Board of Works that it would
be impracticable to build a viaduct over the
railroad tracks at Massachusetts avenue,
because 1t would close Cornell avenue,
Cherry, Dorman and Alvord streets, part
of Peru street and partially close Pendle-
ton avenue. When this report was SUBJ
mitied the board decided to abandon the
project, and Immediately revived the pro-
posal TO asphalt Massachusetts avenue from
B~ellefontaine street to the tracks. The
property owners demonstrated against this

duct. The board decided yesterday to send
the remOnstrance to the Council and ask
for the resolution to be passed over it.

the Board of Works yesterday. This is an
asphalt paving company which has done
some work in Woodruff Place. 1t uses what
is called overflow or land asphalt. The rep
resentative yesterday showed to the salts
faction of the board and the city engineer
that it could lay as good a
pavement as could be laid with
asphaltum taken directly from the Trinidad
lake. The board told the representative
that all that was necessary was for them
to make their bids under the regulations of
the board and according to the regular
specifications and they would be considered.

Most of the connections on this street are
built in such a manner that the sewage
would necessarily run up hill to get into the
sewer. This street is to be improved i'm
inediately and il is necessary that the work
be done before the Improvement commences.

REINA REGENTE FouNDERED.s
Spanish Cruiser Went Down with 42O
Men on Board.

Men on Board.
Madrid, April S.-Further evidence, If any
were needed, of the loss OF the Spanish
cruiser Reina RegeDte was found to-day
A bottle that had been washed ashore was
picked up to-day, and in it was found q
piece OF paper, on which was written in
pencil message signed by the captain OF
the cruiser. The message, which is dated
March 10, 8 p. m, twelve miles distant
from Bajo Aceitanos,' states that the po-
sition Of the vessel was then hopeless
At cabinet council held to-day it was
decided 20 officially announce the loss of
the Reina Regente. The ministers also
decided that the government would assist
the families OF the crew.
The Reina Regente, with a crew of 420
officers and men, was detailed TO convey
to Tangier the Moorish mission that
visited Spain in connection with the de.
mands made by the latter upon Morocco
for the Melnla affair.
The cruiser sailed from Tangier on March
10 for Cadiz. Shortly after her departure
a bad storm set in, and it is pretty certain
that during it she foundered. She was
seen by a British steamer making bad
weather of it, her tunnels and bridge being
gone.
a NUMBER or vessels went In Search or
the missing cruiser, and on March 10 the
Spanish warship Alfonso XII reported
that she had found the Reina Regente sunk
near Bajo Aceitanos, not far from the
straits of Gibraltar
Later, wreckage that washed ashore
proved beyond all reasonable doubt that
the vessel was lost, but the government
for a time professed TO believe that the
cruiser had been blown out through the
straits of Gibraltar and being short of coal,
was trying to make some port under greatly
reduced steam power.
Thirty bodies were washed ashore later
on the Spanish coast, and then the govern
ment abandoned hope. 1t is now nearly
a month since the cruiser sailed from Tan
gier, and beyond all doubt she is lying at
the bottom OF the sea-

BISMARCK'S sun IS SETTING
Man of Blood and Iron Talks Of His
Declining Days
He Says There Is in His Eyes q Glorious
Evening Glow as a Sign ofa
Fair To-morrow.

Friedrichsruhe, April e.-A deputation
OF professors visited Prince Bismarck to-
day and presented TO him an address. The
prince, in reply, said that the distinctions
conferred on him were also intended for
his co-workers, with whom, in certain re-
spects, he was on a similar footing.
He said he himself had only done his
duty. but, by Gods blessing, his efforts
had been crowned with success. The
feelings Of gratitude shown him to-day
We're mutual, as without the work of the
professors in the education OF youth no
results could be attained.
1t was the teachers who implanted the
germs of love for the Fatherland and later
@ proper appreciation of political affairs.
Prince Bismarck then alluded TO the in
hUence of women on national develop
ment as an important step followed. Fifty
years ago, he said, no woman thought OF
exercising influence in this direction but
now mothers fostered national feeling in
their children.
Love OF youth had ever been the main
virtue OF the German people, and this love
was fostered in their pupils by the teach
ers.
he said that when he was biIleted in
Versailles he once perused the copybooks
OF the children Of The house in which he
was quartered. He was astonished by
the monstrous and vexatious falsehoods
cultivated in the French schools, by means
Of which that pride that precedes fall
was implanted in the minds of French
youth.
In conclusion the prince said he was near
ing the end OF his days, and contemplated
with perfect calmness the declining rays OF
the sun. There was, however, in his
eyes glorious evening glow, and, like the
farmer, he regarded red sunset as q
sign OF a fair tomorrow.
He hoped that the glow he saw in the
evening or his life indicated prosperous
days for the teachers and the generation
now growing to manhood. Then he called
for cheers for the Prussian teachers, which
were given heartily.
