INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION
FIRST FORMAL MEETING TO BE
HELD IN WARRINGTON TODAY.
Members Are Mostly Engaged in the
Campaign - Return of the
Omaha Tourists.

WASHINGTON, Oct 16.--It is expected
that the first formal meeting of the indus
trial commission, consisting of the nine men
appointed by the President and members
sof the House of Representatives and the
Senate designated by those bodies, will be
held tomorrow. 1t is likely that the meet
ing will be held in the committee room of
Senator Kyle, of South Dakota. Thus far
only few members of the commission are
in the city, but others are expected to ar
rive tonight and tomorrow. 1t is not
deemed probable that the commission will
do more at this time than effect an or
ganization. Many of the members are now
engaged in the political campaign, and the
indications are that the commission will
not take up it's work seriously before the
converting of Congress.

At the Reform school for Girls.

Many of the delegates to the Prison Con-
gress attended meeting yesterday after
noon at the Reform School for Girls. To
most of them the details of the assembling
of the inmates for the afternoon service
were familiar ones. but all were loud in
praise of the manner and precision with
which it was done. All the girls occupied
the pews in the chapel, while the inmates
or the wcman'S prison were seated in the
sallery separated from the younger inmates
or the Reformatory. All the talks were
made in lighter vein than those at any of
the other meetings of the day, each spea ker
addressing him or herself TO the younger
children present and relating stories of life
intenced TO inspire higher aims in them.
