OPPOSE THE CONVENTION.
American Fedora ton Against the Labor
Meeting at Chicago.

American Federation Against the Labor
Meeting at Chicago.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-The execu-
tive council Of the American Federation
of Labor which has been in session
here, has issued an address in part as
follows:
A call has gone forth to the trades
unions and public for labor convention
in Chicago next Monday. The objects are
to take measures in aid of the strike and
to offset the sweeping powers of the
courts in granting injunctions in defiance
of popular rights during labor disputes.
We Gun see no need for the labor con-
vention in Chicago next week. We adj
wise our members not to be represented.
The money it would cost to send dele
gates had better go to help the suffering
miners and their families. 1t is not by
conventions, with irresponsible talk, in
fammatory declaration and revolution
airy buncombe that the cause of labor can
be advanced. Violent appeals to the pas
sions of tho multitude can serve no good
purpose. 1t is only by systematic organ
ization, with united hearts and united
funds, and fraternity of a purpose
which knows no bounds, color, national
ity or politics, that will uplift the masses.

MADRID, Sept. 23.-The correspond.
snt here Of the Associated Press learns
upon high authority that the much.
discussed interview Of Saturday last be.
tween the United States minister to
Spain, General Stewart L. Woodford,
and the Spanish minister for foreign
affairs, the Duke of Tetuan, were
merely preliminary. General Wood.
ford represented to the duke the gravity
OF the condition of Cuba and requested
in behalf of the United States that
Spain would find method Of speedily
ending the war and giving justice to
the Cubans. He offered the good offices
Of the United States in effecting set
tlement of the Cuban troubles, which
practically gives Spain an opportunity
OF gracefully ending the war. If she
does not
Embrace It Within . Reasonable Time,
notice will be given that the United
States must interfere, though General
Woodford had not said so yet. Spain
cannot expect the aid of European pow
ers, as the United States ambassadors
have ascertained that all the European
Countries, except Austria, recognize
that the interests Of the United States
justify the latter's interference IN
Cuba. Austria in this matter is int.u-
enced by the relationship between the
two dynasties, the queen regent OF
Snain heinp an Austrian archduchess
but it is not likely that Austria will
take any part in the question beyond
possibly making diplomatic protest
against the intervention Of the United

STATE 'OFFlClALS SILENT.
Madrid Dispatch Cannot Be Confirmed at

Madr.d Dispatch Cannot BE Confirmed at
Washington.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-The state de-
partment officials refuse to discuss the
10 ost important statement made in the
Associated Press cable dispatch from
Madrid, namely, that the countries Of
Europe, with the exception Of Austria,
justify the i4terposition of the United
States in favor Of termination Of the
Cuban war. Still it is recalled that
while Mr.. Woodford was tarrying in an
apparently purposeless manner in Lon
don and Paris instead of proceeding to
his post in Spain it leaked out that the
United States ministers at various
European courts had been instructed to
sound the governments to which they
were accredited with a view. to learning
how intervention in favor Of Cuba
would be regarded.
Effort Was Successful.
Although it was generally supposed
ut the time that this effort would not
succeed, there is now good reason to &C.
cept the statement in the Madrid cable
as fully warranted by the facts. With
such lever in the hands of Mr.. Wood
ford, and of its existence the Spanish
government must be aware by this
time, it is regarded as extremely i'm
probable that it would reject any tender
of our good Offices, made in spirit of
friendship and disinterestedness. It is
not expected that any answer from
Spain, if formal answer is made now
or later, will come through the Spanish
authorities here, bnt that it will be
communicated to Minister Woodford

Poison Ivy.

Should you chance to come across
children with their little faces puffed
out and spotted, do not flee from them
while laboring under the Impression
that they are victims of measles, scar
let fever or scarlatina. It's an odds
on chance, as horsemeu say, that
they've only been out to one OF the,
many local parks enjoying themselves
and that they had come into contact
with ivy poison. Notwithstanding
the fact that park gardeners aud labor
ers are always on the qui vive for this
detestable vine aud destroy it when
ever met with, it is constantly spring
ing up in unexpected places, and is
disagreeable, though not dangerous,
in its effects.
While many persons are impervioqs
to the effects of poison ivy, and many
handle it freely, it is well known fact
among scientists that Others are
affected by it even though they do not
touch it, and are blotched ald swollen,
even if only the wind from the direc-'
ton of its lair blows upon exposed
parts of their body. Toe poison is
exceedingly painful, but it is quickly
cured by the application Of another
poison-a deadly one-sugar OF lead,
dissolved in water.-New York Com
mercial Advertiser.
