A committee OF Benwood miners and
men from the Gilchrist mines visited the
Bosgs run mines yesterday afternoon.
and asked them 90 come out until the
strike is settled. Their mission was
f@ltless, as the miners seen stated that
they would continue at work, unless the
Elm Grove miners and those in the Fair
mont region went out.
The Boggs run miners said that they
were the sufferers in the strike OF 1894,
and other strikes; that they were the
ant to go out and the last to so in, and
that the company as a result lost several
Contracts, entailing a considerable loss
Of time upon the part of lts employees.
Therefore in the present trouble they are
determined to be cautious.
Yesterday was not the first time that
PRESSURE was brought 10 bear upon these
mtn: In fact. since the strike began they
have been almost daily interviewed by
The men from other mines, They were
prevailed upon to ask for the G0-cent
rate, which wac given to them by Super
intendent Koontz last Monday. The
Boggs Run Mining Company has two
banks at BenwoOd, one of which
Is commonly known as the Koontz
mines. Both employ sixty-hve diggers,
The Koontz or upper bank employing
forty-hve.
The average output OF each man. ac-
clriing to superintendent KoOntz, is
900 pounds Of coal daily. which would
net the miner Sc 70. The dlggers say
that this is a high estimate; that they
can hardly make 5000 pounds, or four
tons a day, netting them 81 20. They
further claim that they are Handicapped
BY the screen system. being paid only for
tie cal over the screen, while they state
that the company sells the screenings
With the other coal In one lot.
The men wanted forty-hve cents a ton.
nn Of mine coal. The company refused
10 give this. but gave the sixty cent rate
for screened coal. In the upper bank, or
RoIntz mine. this rate is not 30 advanta-
geJus as In the lower one. However. the
men seem satisfied with the present Of
der OF things. rather than strike, for
they have not had steady work for years,
list year averaging $50 working days.

brary. ar. Maxwell opened the dis
cussion By stating that he thought the
finance committees levy OF two cents
per 500 valuation was too low. ne
preferred a three-cent levy. He thought
such a low levy n made In the interests
OF economy In buying books a poor
move.
Colonel Miller voiced similar senti-
ments. but after some more talk the
question was dropped.
Upon motion Of Colonel Miller, MSS
Lucy Robinson was reappointed m
struetor OF music In the pubic sehoois
for the coming year,
Clerk Hall read a communication
from the local carpenters union, n
which Il was alleged that the contract
ors for the Clay annex were not living
up 10 the specifications; that the work
was being done chiefly by apprentices
some being over forty years OF age
that only one mar working on the lob
was a union man.
Upon Invitation OF the board, Secre-
tary A. L. Bauer. OF the union ad-
| dressed the board In support OF the allie
cations. He spoke for the committee
| OF carpenters which was also present,
and repeated the sentiments expressed
IN the communication.
Mr.. Bauer made u good impression.
Following his remarks, upon motion OF
Mr.. Hubbard, II was unanimously vot-
| ed that the contractors be notlhed that
they are expected TO live up to the terms
Of the contract.
The selection OF a %janitor for the high
school was referred to the committee
on buildings and grounds.
Colonel Miller got back TO the high
scnoal again following this action. He
wanted Information as to when the sal
aries OF the high school teachers would
begin. The school will hardly be ready
for use until October ], and he didn't
think the teacher5' salaries should
therefore date NON September ].
MI. Buckman's resolution that the
| salaries do not begin until the teachers
assume their duties, was adopted.
The speclal high school committee
was instructed to prepare a course OF
study in the public schools, from the
lowest to the highest grades.
The board adjourned at $3.50 o'clock.

WITH THE TARIFF.
Ways and Means Committee Ar
ranging Schedules.

Washington, Feb. S.-The Republican
members of the Ways and Means COM
mittee held another session this morn
ing. which was devoted mainly to a
consideration of the iron and steel
schedule. A slight increase was made
in the duty on tin plate, which is fixed
in the present law at 1-5 cents a
pound. The manufacturers have asked
for a rate little if any below 2 cents
a pound, but the committee felt that
IL cents a pound would be sufficient
protection. and the duty was placed
at that figure. The law of 1S90y which
is more generally known as the Nc
Kinley law, was the first to foster this
industry and in that law the duty was
fixed at 2-10 cents pound. Under the
stimulus of this protection a number
of industries were established, and the
members of the ways and means COM
mittee now feel that the rate agreed
upon today az cents) will furnish ali
the protection that may be required
Iron ore, pig iron and bar iron and
steel rails were left at the present rate.
A tentative agreement was also made
with reference to cotton ties, which did
not pay LILO per cent additional to the
rate imposed on the iron from which
thew are made

FISH TESTIFIES.
Favors Government Ownership of
the Union Pacific.

Washington, Feb. S.-The house com
mlttee on Pacific railroads today heard
StuyVesant Fish, president of the
Jersey Central railroad and F. S. Bond
Vlce-presldent of the Chicago. Milwau-
kee d St. Paul on matters regarding
the Pacific railroads. Mr.. Fish sug-
geStS that the government foreclose on
the Union and Central Pacific at +be
same time and make them public high
ways over which all connecting roads
would have equal rights. The Sfo,1x,
City d Pacific, a branch of the North
western, had been built on the faith of
the Pacific railroad act that it would he
a branch of the Union Pacific but was
cut off from business with that COM
pany' de taYored government owner
snip on the ground that il would give
all connecting roads equal rights as
was intended by the original act. IF
the government, however. looked only
TO making the most money out of its
Pacific road interests it should accent
the first good offer. Mr. Bond could NOT
say without consultation with other
officials what the roads running to the
Missouri river would like, but he was
OF the opinion that an organization of
railroads could be perfected to pur-
chase the Union Pacific.
Mr.. j. T. Morrison OF New Yorl,
representing bond and stockholders in
the Union & Central Pacific railroads.
advocated a reorganization under
which the stockholders would be taken
care of. The committee after the hear
ing went into executive session and
agreed to report favorably the Harri-
son bill creating a commission consist
ing of the secretary of the treasury. the
secretary of the interior and the attor-
ney-general to provide for the settle
ment of the Indebtedness of the Pacific
railroads.

IDAHO'S, LEGISLATURE.
An Appropriation For the Omaha
Exposition.
Especial to The Herald.l

especial 10 Inc Herald.J
Boise, Ida. Feb. S.-Nearly the entire
time of the house today was taken up
in debate on the Randolph railroad bill.
The committee had recommended its in
definite postponement. After long dis
cusSion the friends of the measure forced
its recommitment. The sentiment of the
house seemed to be that law of some
kind should be enacted. but that this
bill was too sweeping in its provisions.
Among the interesting bills introduced
during the session was one by Waters
making an appropriation OF $4,000 for an
exhibit at the Omaha exposition. 1t pro-
vides for a board to be composed of five
commissioners appointed by the gov
ernor. who are to serve without pay. The
bill contemplates the erection of build
ing for the state in the exposition
grounds.
In the senate the Davis fee bill. which
has been a great bone of contention. was
again up for consideration. Finally a
conference committee representing the
conflicting interests was appointed to en-
deavor to arrive at a satisfactory COM
promise. The committee is composed of
Keller of Bannock. Ballantine of Blaine
and Davis of Oneida.
Donnelly introduced joint memorial to
congress petitioning for early action look
ing to annexation to the Hawaiian Is
lands.
A concurrent resolution was passed fix
ing February 20 as the last day for the
Introduction of bills. Donnelly also in
t-oduced a joint resolution to submit
constitutional amendment providing for
the payment of county officers with fixed
salaries the counties to be classified &C
cording to assessed valuation, and sala-
rieS to be graded accordingly.
A bill to close barber shops on Sunday
US voted down in committee of the
whole: also the bill to abolish the Office
OF deputy state treasurer.
The bill abolishing the office of state
engineer was recommended for passage.
