PEOPLE TAKE POSSESSION.
SPLENDID NEW LIBRARY BUILDING
IS THROWN OPEN.
Great Crowd Visited 1t Yesterday and
Everybody Was Pleased With
It's Appearance and Ar
rnnEement.

Kansas City took possession of her new
public library yesterday. From $3.50 until
10:30, when the building was closed for the
day, there was constant stream of citi-
zens passing through the building. The
universal verdict, repeated time and again,
was that the library far surpassed in
beauty and appointment anything that had
been imagined from the unostentatious eX-
terror.
1.-THE outside of the building looked sub
stantial and dignified, but l never dreamed
that there was so much inside. or that it
had been so superbly finished exclaimed
an elderly woman. as she paused in the
rotunda.
Mrs. Carrie w. Whitney, librarian; Miss
Frances A Bishop, assistant librarian: the
members of the board of education and the
high school cadets We're on hand early to
receive and usher the citizens about the
rooms is to be used for Each of the clerks
in the library was at his post ready to
explain the details of the library work to
women in the latest fashionable attire and
laboring men and their families passed
from one room to another all day long.
The library was opened without any form-
al dedication. Kansas City had simply been
invited to take possession of the building.
The American flag was neatly draped over
each of the entrances. From behind a
bank of palms in one corner of the rOtunda
Zimmerschied's orchestra played classic
music during the afternoon and evening.
OF all the rooms in the building includ-
ing the magnificent art gallery. the lecture
room and clubrooms, none attracted more
attention than the childrens room. There
the juvenile books have been arranged on
shelves where they can be quickly gotten
for the children. Small chairs and low
tables have been provided for the little
folks comfort, and one of the assistant
librarians will spend her entire time there
answering the wants of the children.

OPERATORS AND MINERS OFFICERS
WILL CONFER TO-DAY.
AN AGREEMENT IN PROSPECT.
PITTsBURG DISTRICT MINERS MUST
VOTE UPON 1T, HOWEVER.
President DoInu in Favor of Holding
Out for the 60 Cent Rate, Pend
ing ArbitrntiUa-The Miners
Seem TO BE in No
Hurry.

Pittsburg. Pa. Sept. 1.-Pittsburs coal
operators will meet the national executive
board of the United Miners workers OF
America at S o'clock tomorrow morning at
Columbus. Q. A conference will be held
and it is very probable that the big strike
will be settled, not, however. until the
miners of the Pittsburg district have
say. This. in brief. is the situation, ana
homes are high that settlement will fol-
low the conference. 1t may be prevented
however. by one side or the other falling to
make concessions that seem to be in sight.
w. P. Bonney who represents the Scott
interests; George w. Schlenderberg. L. A
Andreysand ]. C. Dysart all boarded the
train tonight for Columbus. None of them
would say anything for publication except
Mr. Dysart He said: THE miners Of
ficials have asked to confer with us and
we are going to Columbus for that pur-
pose. That is all can say
1t is expected that several of the
operators from Cleveland will also be In
Columbus tomorrow.
That the miners officials think favorably
of the proposition submitted by Thomas Z.
Young on behalf of the Senator Hanna in
terests is very evident. A private mes
sage from District President Dolan to-
night says the proposition will be consid-
ered but that he is in favor of standing
out for the 60 cent rate pending arbitration.
If the executive board decided otherwise,
he said he would not agree to it unless his
constituents were consulted.
From one of the operators it was learned
tonight that some of the local officials of
the miners are in favor of accepting the
prcpcsition, and it is almost certain that a
convention will be called. Whether the
miners of the district will agree to the
compromise is another question.
Just now they are much elated over the
large attendance at their mass meetings,
and the firmness exhibited by the men.
Many are of the opinion that they can
win out by holding on n short time longer.
as the operators must have coal for the
lake trade. The operators are anxious to
start, and if settlement is not reached
at Columbus it is known that they will
resume with imported labor.
Secretary William Warner issued letter
to the miners tonight assuring them that
no settlement would be made at Columbus
below the 69-cent rate without first con-
Sulting them in convention.

GOLD STANDARD FOR INDIA.
Action Taken by the Indian Council
Yesterday Which May
Lead to II.

London. Sept. 1.-The following notice was
posted on the Bank of England to-day:
."rhe secretary of state for India. in coun-
ell, gives notice that the sale of bills of
exchange on Calcutta. Bombay and Mad
ras has been suspended for a period of
not less than ten weeks.
The government has very little money
in India to draw on. owing TO the famine
and the plague having rendered the col
lection of taxes slow. The present time
may be opportune to accustom the Indians
to the use of gold instead of silver. though
1t would not have been attempted had not
the scarcity of money arisen.
The Daily Telegraph. anticipating the
action of the Indian council, said to-day:
The council may refuse to draw altogeth-
er. thus sending exchange up to the gold
point. and render possible the establish
ment Of the gold standard in India"

even if both white and red desired it. They
are crowded cramped. enclosed from with
out and divided and disconnected among
themselves The end has come and they
feel ii, recognize it, but they would be
strange humanity indeed If they failed to
resent this decree of fate by some mani-
festation of rebellion against it.
This is the philosophy of the situation
and he who encourages the discontented
and incites the passions OF hate 10 fercer
heat is either blind 10 the steady record of
destiny or seeks personal advantage in the
n5orc perfect destruction of the Indian
race.
THE fact may be a sad one, but it is
nevertheless a fact that there is no
longer place on the soil of the Union for
an Indian as an Indian. The pathos of
his situation should and does appeal 10 all
great men, but the logic OF fate is not
moved by The prayers of fallen race, nor
their destiny averted by tear for their
end. L would most respectfully ask that
we. as members of the national council.
should take these matters into deep con-
sideration and look toward the best inter-
estS our country and coming generations.
