SETTLEMENT IN SIGHT.
Miners Want Assurance That All
Will Be Benefited.

Column bus, O., Sept. 9.-The miners
convention remained in executive ses-
sion until late this afternoon, adjourn
ing until tomorrow morning without
having taken a vote on The proposed
settlement. Tonight, however. Presi-
dent Ratchford said to. an Associated
Press representative: "You may pre-
diet with every degree of certainty that
a settlement WIFI be reached and that
the action &C the BOARD in reaching a
settlement viii be enforced"
The question as to whether a settle
merit on the lines proposed can be made
final appears to be the stumbling block
at This time. If the delegates from Ilh-
nois, Indiana, West Virginia and Dor
ticls OF Ohio were assured that the
settlement would be beneficial 10 them
as well as the miners of She Pittsburg
district, they would not hesitate to vote
for settlement. The Illinois miners
have net changed their position ard
positively decline to accept the terms
Of settlement proposed by the national
beard
The officials have partly met the ar
gunentS of the Illinois miners by say
ing il the Illinois delegates will agree
to a settlement. SO that The miners of
other states can resume work. the Illi-
nois operators wild be forced to pay the
price paid by their competitors in other
states. Should Illinois agree to thas
arrangement, Indiana and West Yfr-
ginia viii fall into lime without alesfta-
ton.
The committee on resolutions is about
equally divided on the question of a
settlement. and Will probably present
two reports to the convention tomor-
row.

Currency Rates withdrawn.

New York. Sept. S.-The treasury Of
hcials here today were served with
notices by the treasury department at
Washington announcing that the
special government rate on currency
shipments had been withdrawn and
that banks and all currency shippers
will in future have to pay regular
rates. 1t has been the custom of the
treasury department to make special
carrying rates when gold was rendered.
The special rate was in many cases
so per cent less than that charged by
express companies. 1t is surmised
that the government was led to take
this step because of a mistaken idea
on the part of many that gold was
desired to fill the vaults of the sub
treasury
