PRIMROSE LEAGUE.
ANNUAL MEETING AT LONDON
YESTERDAY.
Lord Salisbury Says the Main Object
of the Concert of the European
Powers is the Preservation of the
Peace of Europe.

London, May 6.-The annual meeting of
the Primrose league took place today at
Albert hall. There was a large attend
ance of members and the galleries were
crowded. The platform was handsomely
decorated with flags and flowers. Among
tnose present We're the Dukes of Marl-
borough, Leeds and Norfolk and many
eminent persons and members of the
house of commons. Mime. Abb sang the
national anthem and the Marquis of
cneered, congratulated the league on the
continuous progress it has been making
in celebrating the reign of Queen Victoria
ms, he said. was an epoch in English
history which gave the league special
reason to rejoice at the characteristics
OF her majesty's great reign.
The premier dwelt at length upon the
Graeco-Turkish war, and the concert of
Europe, the main object of which, he
said was to prevent an European war.
adding that the belief prevailed that all
danger OF such a war was finally dis
siDated and that the peace OF Europe
placed on better basis and had better
hope in its future than ever>before. Her
majesty government, the premier also
said, would 90 its best to end the blood
shed In his concluding references to
the war the Marquis of Salisbury said:
The opening of the eastern question
was greatly dreaded but il has now
come to be a nightmare. There has been
great fear that any outbreak in the
southeast of Europe might lead TO q gem
eral blaze. but it is to be hoped that the
danger is past and that we may look
calmly on the larger interests involved.
1T may be that Turkey has exhibited
proofs of strength which none suspected
and perhaps a better future is open to
the doTninions of the sultan. Their gov
may improve or may be the
empire will collapse as many have feared.
In either case we are justified in be-
lieving that all changes will be con-
Quoted under the sanction of peaceful
Referring to South Africa, the Marquis
of Salisbury declared that the London
must be observed.
The Duke of Marlborough proposed a
resolution congratulating the queen upon
the growth of the empire during her
long reign and upon the growth OF
patriotic and fraternal feeling in the
various portions of her majesty's vast
dominions. The resolution was adopted.

Louisville, KY, May 6.-The second

reading of papers on topics which were
timely.
Professor Frank F. Goodnow of CO.

John A. Butler of Milwaukee read
the paper of ]. Richard Freud on
Municipal Affairs in San Francisco.
The city did not enjoy the power of
home rule The statutes had been
tinkered with by the legislature. The
main portions Of the government were
governed by five boards, which were
more under the control of the governor
than under the power of the city's
citizens. There was a lack of business
methods and money raised for one pur-
pose was often diverted or perverted
to other purposes. The result was that
when money was raised all of the city
departments made a grab for the
money. The city was boss-ridden, no
matter which party succeeded What
San Franchises new charter should
have was home rule in local affairs,
civil service in office, elimination OF
national politics and an executive head
to enforce the laws who would be re-
sponsible to the people.
The conference will conclude tomor-
row night with banquet.

The third act of the Crowther-Robin-

yesterday, when Tom Robinson was ar
raigned on a complaint sworn out by
David H. Crowther. in which the latter
accused the family enemy of smashing
him at the Crowther gateway during
the darkness of last Saturday night.
The evidence given by John Crowther,

Robinson and old man Robinson left
Justice Wenger but one recourse. It
was clear to him that some one was
lying. He said so, and when Attorney
Shoup reminded the court that it was
impossible to advise in the matter, the
court said that In his mind il looked
like something worse than bad blood.

whole lot of bad stock represented and
under the circumstances he could not

therefore discharged Robinson

Harriet Beutler was present
when the affair occurred. Her
presence in the same court where she
was once under examination for an
other memorable crime did not help
the coloring out. The court decided
that the whole new was one misera-
bic circumstance in a whole evening of
low debauchery. Brown was lined $40
for frightening Simpson with the use

down easy with S.. black eye making

MEETING OF THE EXECUTIVE

President Edward Boyce of the
rived from Idaho yesterday morning
and convened the executive committee
of the federation, preparatory to the
national convention which will be held
in this city next Monday. The mem
bers of the committee, beside the pres
ident, are: James Maher, secretary,
Butte; P. H. Clifford. Aspen. Colo;
John Ahearn, Leadville; Thomas Ora
ham, Montana; Richard Thomas, Mon
tana; ]. H. Mcdonald. Virginia City.
New. All of the committee is now in
Salt Lake with the single exception of
Mr. Mcdonald, who is expected TO ar
rive today.
LAST NIGHTS MEETING.
The executive session is being held
in room of the Ricketts, block. Last
evening it was engaged in forming the
committees that will act at the con-
vention. Over 20 delegates will be in
attendance, representing every mining
state west of the Missouri river, eX-
cepting Oregon and Washington. Moth
ing will be given out for publication
by the committee until today, when
the list of committees will probably
have been completed. In an interview
there was nothing of vital Importance
to be considered by this convention.
The mere formality of an annual rou-
tine would occupy all of it's attention.
THE LABOR SITUATION.
1.-The labor situation throughout the
entire west, especially regarding min
ers, is extremely quiet. The question
of wages has not been agitated Cor
some time and at Butte where the
mine operators have talked of making
a reduction, there is absolutely moth
ing TO be heard of it now. do not
anticipate its revival. There are no
other grievances for the convention to
discuss, so you see all elements of SEN
sationalism is taken from that gather
ing. In connection with wages l will
say that we, the workmen, can see
very plainly the conditions that are
drifting upon US. l refer particularly
to the fast approaching time when
wages in the west are coming down
to the eastern standard. 1t is newt
able and nothing that union labor
can do will stem the decree of fate.
The knowledge is fraught with a good
deal of concern to the miner but what
can be done? Our united efforts viii
avert that calamity for some time. 1
am certain, but how long is the prob
lem. L account for the coming reduce
ton by the invasion of the labor-saving
which is supplanting manual
labor in almost every branch of work
1t is being introduced in va
rious departments of mining every
year. What is going to be done with
the thousands who are deprived of en-
ployment by the machine that viii do
the work of a dozen men? That is the
question that haunts us most"
