Boiler Blown 1000 Feet.

Sharon. Pa, Nov. "a boiler explo-

while the miners of the Mercer Iron
and Coal Company were in the boiler
house eating lunch. David Love. en-
gineer, was killed instantly. John
Jackson, Joseph Dowers and Albert
Jaxtheimer were hurt mortally. Two
other men were hurt severely. No rea-
son is given for the explosion. The
boiler had been inspected but a short
time before and was found to be in
good condition. 1t was blown over two
thousand feet, and the boiler house
was torn to atoms.

THE SEALING CONFERENCE.

Washington, Nov. 10.-Gen. Foster
and Sir Julian Pauncefort conferred
yesterday as to the arrangements for
the meeting of British, Canadian and
American representatives relative to
Behring Sea. A general understanding
was reached that the arrival of Sir
Wilfred Laurier, the Canadian Pre-
mier, and party, would permit the
meeting to open tomorrow, as to-day
Is likely to be given to an exchange of
views between the Canadians and Brit
ish.
The British Ambassador accom-
psnied the Premier to the White
House this morning and introduced
him to the President. This was a call
Of courtesy, however, and 1t was not
expected that any Of the pending ques-
tions would be referred to. The British
Embassy has extended an invitation
TO Sir Wilfrid to be a guest during his
stay here, but he has determined to re-
main with the other Canadian repre-
sentatives at the Shoreham, where
quarters have been engaged
1t Is now definitely settled that the
coming meeting will take a much
broader scope than was first antici-
pated. At the outset there will be a
comparison of notes between the seal
experts, Mr.. Hamlin for the United
States, Prof. Thompson for Great
Britain, and Prof. Macoun for Canada.
The Canadian Premier and Sir Louis
Davies. Sir Julian Pauncefote and Gen.
Foster will be present in an unofficial
capacity. ready to take up the larger
phases of the question when the seal
experts have concluded their exchange

REMOVALS BY COLLECTORS
Judge Jacisson's Decision to BE Ap-
peaIed from by the Treasury.


Washington, Nov. 1O.-The decision
Of Judge Jackson, in the Federal Court
for West Virginia, that deputy collec-
tors of internal revenue, such as gaug-
ers, storekeeper and the like may not
be removed except for cause, was the
subject of an earnest conference at the
Treasury Department yesterday. Col
lector White, against whom the de-
cision was directed, came over to
Washington Monday night and passed
some time with Secretary Gage and
Assistant Secretary vanderlip discuss
ing the situation.
Treasury officials do not like the de-
cision, but their course of action, when
the department closed yesterday, had
not been decided upon. An appeal
from the decision will be taken, but no
one would authorize the publication of
that fact as the determination of the
Secretary.
1t developed during the day that At
torney-General McKenna would not
decide the question asked by Secretary
Gage as to the power of the Collectors
to remove deputies or other appointees
in order to make places for men of
their own selection. This determna-
ton, 1t would seem, was reached be-
fore Judge Jackson's decision was
known here, but no explanation OF II
was vouchsafed. The matter has been
before the Attorney-G General for some
weeks, and it has been reported that
Assistant Attorney-General Boyd had
prepared an opinion that under the
Civil Service law collectors had the
right to make the changes. This de-
cison has been before the Attorney
General for his approval or disap-
proval a month or more.

Sreator, ILL.,. Nov. 1O.-The an
nouncement that Cinnamon would be

excitement here, and a call has been

THESILvER QUESTION
THINK THE EPRosPEcTs FOR REFORM
OF THE CURRENCY GOOD.
some Democrats wouIJ Help Change
the Rules to Clear the Way for n
Monetary Bill which They would
Not Directly Favor.

NOT Dtrectiy fHNor.
Washington, Nov. O.-Notwithstand-
ing the apparent impossibility that any
financial legislation should get through
Congress, some of the best informed
Democrats and silver men insist in
private that there will be determined
fight over the question, and that the
outcome is uncertain. They exhibit
considerable alarm and declare that
there is no doubt that desperate ex-
pedients will be adopted TO get through
the Senate the measure that will be
passed by the House on the recon-
mendation of the President. Iiey say
that the fight will start in the Senate
on a proposition to adopt cloture, al
most as soon as Congress meets, and
that there are some Senators who will
vote to amend the Senate rules who
could not justify themselves before
their constituents If they voted direct
ly to pass a currency reform measure
Yet, If cloture is adopted, they believe
that it may be possible to pass a cur
rency measure which would be disas-
( us to the silver party.
The Republicans say nothing of such
a plan, and on the surface il does not
seem possible of accomplishment, but
there is no doubt that those who op-
pose currency legislation are extreme
)y anxious, and are preparing for a
d. 5perate struggle, which they say
n y last throughout the entire session.
7'he Republicans have fortythrce
S lators, and there being a vacancy,
( ty-five is a majority. The Demo-
Gratis have thirty-four Senators, and
there are twelve Pouplists and inde-
pendents Two Democrats, Lindsay
aud Gray, are likely to vote for a re-
form of the currency, II they have an
opportunity, though they probably
would not dare vote for cloture. II
they did, it would pass the monetary
bill Now, If some of those who would
vote for a currency measure should
vote for cloture, it would open the way
for those who would vote for currency
reform. 1t is not certain how Senator
]. p. Jones or Senator Kyle would vote
on the cloture proposition. but it is
thought likely that Kyle would vote
for it, and it is not improbable that
Senator Jones would do the same
1t is impossible to gN Republican
authority for an assertion that this
plan is in contemplation, but there is
no question about the Democrats be-
heving it and being anxious about it.
