FEDERATED LABORfRS
WILL MEET TODAY IN ANNUAL
CONVENTION
An Unusually Large Attendance
Promises an Important Meeting.
Gompers' Reelection Sure

KANSAS CITY, Dec 1.-THE annual
convention of the American Federation OF
Labor will be called to order at 8 o'clock
Monday morning. There will be full at
tendance Of delegates, according to the pres
ent outlook, and an important meeting is
looked for by the leaders. Delegates are
here from all parts of the country; they
have been arriving since Friday and the
last delegation will not be here until to-
morrow morning. Sunday was spent in in
formal conferences and in greeting the late
arrivals. President Samuel Gompers was
the life of all groups. The so-called fight
on Gompers' reelection has not yet deve-
oped. On the surface there apepars no ma
teral opposition to him.
Mr.. Gompers refuses to discuss his re-
election.
That rests with the party of the Sec
ond part" he said to reporter. ''If am
elected, want to enter upon my duties un-
trammeled by pledges, so that l may do
for my chosen people what | think the in
terests Of labor demand
MIR. Gompers refused to say what the
probable action of the convention will be
in regard to the socialistic pronunciamento
which some delegates will demand, or what
will be the outcome OF the fight in the con-
vention for the Endorsement of free silver.
In the past we have defeated the social
ists," he said, "and in the past likewise
we have come out for silver But since the
latter has been made a political issue the
action OF the convention this year may be
different"

A NEW DARK LANTERN
The Invention Of Young Police
Officer

Police Officer Ross Phillips has patented
a new dark lantern, which is decided, i'm
provement over the old style. Phillips
lantern is about inches in height, inches
wide, and about 21a inches from front to
back The reflector is rectangular in
shape instead of being round, as the ord-
nary bulls-eye. In the regulation lantern
it is necessary, in order to turn the slide, to
use both hands, as one of the hands is used
tc hold the lantern. With the new lantern
there is a lever in the back of the lantern,
which can be pressed downward by the
thumb of the hand holding the lantern, and
this lever will throw up blind which
shades the glass. BY setting on catch,
side pieces can be attached to this front
shutter, and when thrown out it will con-
fine the light to a small space directly in
front of the lantern, and prevent the light
from being cast beyonda few feet from the
holder.
The best improvement in the lantern,
though, is the lever in the back, which en-
ables the carrier TO have one hand free, and
TO regulate the light with entire ease Ser
geant Smith has supplied the capital to Sc
cure the patent, and has half interest in
the invention, which will shortly be placed
on the market. Chief Glass regards the
lantern with much favor, and thinks it will
prove practical

SANTA MONICA, Dec. lO.-A horrible
accident happened this afternoon at the
dumping ground on Fourth street. John

team into pile of rubbish which had been
burning under ground. Both of his horses
were dropped into hole of red-hot Goals.

some little time an alarm was turned in
for the fire department and assistance came
but too late to save the poor animal, whose
side was fairly cooked. Officer See ended
the horses misery by well ll-placed shot.
The other horse had its feet burned, as did
also Mr.. Courtwright, but not seriously.
Some tramps this evening, after enjoying
themselves in the summer kitchen of Abb
bot Kinney's unocoupied residence on Ocean
avenue, near Senator Jones' place, wifulv
or accidentally set fire to the premises. The
fire department came to the rescue, but not
before $500 damage was done.

FUGITIVE FROM JUSTICE
Officers Think They Have Captured
Murderer

In the arrest of Chin Doc, Chinese high
binder, Deputy Constables Quinn and Mug
nemi think they have effected the capture
of murderer who has been fugitive from
justice for the past eight years.
Some time in 1890 one of the periodical
rows broke out in ChinatoVn, no less than
score of the heathens being involved in
the fight. The result was the death of
Fung All Lon. Three Chinese were charged
with the actual commission of the crime,
and of this number All Lin and All Chung
were arrested. The third man, who is
thought to be Chin Doc, escaped. A war
rant charging him with murder was issued
but no trace of the man could be found So
the trials Of the other men were held. The
testimony was chiefly to the effect that
Chin Doc had committed the crime, while
the other prisoners were innocent parties.
The pair was found guilty, though, and
Chung received one year in San Quentin
tor manslaughter, while Lin received 10
years for the same offense.
The officers intend to search the records
today to ascertain positively whether Doc
is the other murderer. The man is now
under arrest on a charge of assault with a
deadly weapon. He tried to extort money
from countryman, and when the latter
refused to produce, Doc smashed him over
the head with revolver.

A RESIGNATION ASKED
OF ONE OF DETROIT'S POLICE
COMMISSIONERS
Citizens Uniting for the Suppression
of Stall Saloons and Other
Forms of Vice

DETROIT, Mich, Dec. 1.-THE hesig-
nation of Police Commissioner Ralph
Phelps, Jr., was demanded today at mass
meeting of representative citizens held In
one of the leading churches. This action
is the direct result of the recent agitation
toward the enforcement OF law and abolish
ing of vice by the Good Government league
of Detroit and others. Mr. Phelps is
charged, among other things, with being on
fifteen LIQUOR bonds prior to his appoint
ment as commissioner, when the law ex-
pressly provides that no one shall sign
more than twoj with not being released
from the bonds after his appointment; with
absenting himself from this city for almost
a year while police commissioner, and at
ter having accepted the responsibilities oil
office, and with not being In full symp"
thy with the enforcement Of laN.. Inc
speaker, Rev. Walter Hughson, then CON
tinued:
I'VE impeach Mr.. Phelps before the tri-
bnual of the city of Detroit for his inca
pacity and demand that Mayor Maybury
shall, on our behalf, demand his resigna-
ton. The honor of the City demands his
retirement, and it can best come about
through his resignation. A large number
Of people have lost confidence in him. We
want no man in office who fails to appre-
ciate trust and responsibility, and we
charge this man with incompetency. We
can have little hope for the sincere enforce
ment of law until there is change"
The Good Government league sprang into
existence at the last election, and took
prominent part in it. A few weeks ago
several local divines commenced a crusade,
aaginst so-called stall Saloons" and have
been since waging relentless war upon them
and other forms Of vice as well. This mass
meeting of today, which embraced in the
audience a number of the city's prominent
business men and politicians, partool of
the nature of a combining of the forces of
the Good Government league and all the
others who are active in the present move
ment for the enforcement of law and pre-
vention of vice. The members of the league
say that today's action is merely starter,
and that unless a change is made in the pol
icy OF other city officers, more charges and
demands for designations will follow.
