Represented at the Meeting

CHICAGO, March 10.-An organization to
Railway Employees was perfected to-day 1t
seeks to bring all organized railway en-
ployes into one central body, which SHALL
under certain conditions, act with one ac-
cord, but without interfering with the in
dividuality of each organization. The move
ment has been pending and formulating for
the past two years. 1t eliminated to-day

men; p. H. Morrissey grand master of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen; w. v.

grand chief conductor of the Order of Rail-

chairman, p. II. Morrissey; secretary, W.
v. Powell, Peoria.
The four organizations represented at the
meeting are the only ones at present which
will have any part in the federation. The
object of the federation is when differences
between an employee of one of the organiza-

settled by the local body the latter shall
call to it's assistance the federation, which
shall use all it's influence to settle the differ

POPULISTS WANT PINGREE.
One Michigan Faction Will Nominate
Him for Governor.

LANSING, Mich, March 1O.-The COM
mittees of the two wings Of the Populist
party in this State are having some diff

which is in progress here to-day. The mid
dle-of-the-road men, headed by Secretary
Mcbride, of Grand Rapids, have a call pre-
pared for a convention to be held in Grand
Rapids, and which shall nominate Governor
Pingree for Governor in advance of the
Republican state convention. State Chair
man label says: THE Governor is thought
mighty we'll of by the Populists generally.
Harmony only can be accomplished by the
fusionists coming to our terms and Joining
in call for a convention to nominate a
straight ticket. If any other party wants
to indorse any of our candidates that's
their affair"
Chairman Ewing of the fusion committee
said: IF those Grand Rapids fellows think
harmony means simply getting over on to
their plans to call an early convention to
nominate Pingree they'll find there won't
be any getting together. The force of
events will eventually drive him to the re-
form forces, but he is not there yet"
The conference committee of Michigan
Populists were unable to come to an agree

WASHINGTON, March 10--The naval APP
preparation bill has been practically COM
pleted by the House committee on naval
affairs save as to the questions of increases
in the navy, dry docks and armor plate.
Chairman Boutelle stated tonight he might
report the bill to the House by Saturday,
and if not it will go in early next week.
There have been few changes from the esti-
mates. and the bill will involve in the neigh
borhood of $30,0o0,0O0 aside from new yes
sells, dry docks and armor. The increases
allowed are such as to meet the gradual
development of the service. The general
item for construction and repairs just
passed on aggregates $2,50000O, identical
with the estimates. This includes about
$3700O0 a material increase, for improved
machinery at the shops. The amount also
is exclusive of the specific appropriations
to the various construction plants, etc.
There is also a horizontal Appropriation pro-
posed of $4,000 to each of the yards except
to the Puget Sound station in lieu of the
general estimate of 100000. The estimates
for the Naval Academy at Annapolis go
through practically untouched, authorizing
among other things the much wanted re-
pair of the laundry plant.
There was a long discussion in commit
tee to-day over the additional land wanted
for the Port Royal, S. c., station, and atten-
ton called to some legal points involved in
the question, but an appropriation of 5000
for the purpose was finally allowed, subject
to the acquisition of a quit claim for the
MYERS tract. There was also a hearing
given the Massachusetts delegation in Con-
gress, represented by Representatives
Knox, Lowering, Mccall, Moody and Simp-
l1ins, who were appointed at joint meeting
of the Massachusetts members of both
houses. this afternoon to present the claims

bined have succeeded in soaring the peO-
pie almost into fits over this disease, until
COW can't cough, SneeZe or snort without
being accused of having tuberculosis by
some one no matter if she is perfect pic
ture of health. meteorological science has
OF late made some wonderful discoveries
and has done a great work on the line OF
determining the cause of disease, and great
praise is tltIe tn the scientists for what thew
nave revealed to us But human life and
animal life is no more in jeopardy than 1t
mas been Tor century. Tuberculous cat
tie have always existed, and always will,
and the sensible view to take of the matter
is for farmers to take the best care possi-
pie OF their animals, and If one is taken
sick seek competent advice of men who are
capable of making a physical examination.
Ii cow in the herd coughs examine the
situation and see If she is not being fed
something which will produce it, or kept
in stable that is improperly Ventilated or
turned-out of hot one into the cold. lust
remember that cattle can take cold as well
as people, and remember that they can
cough and not have consumption just as
we'll as people. And also remember that
cattle can have tubercular disease in an In
cipient or encysted form and it never de-
velop into dangerous form. Many people
consumption and never know 1t. 1t is a dis
ease that can never be stamped out of hui
mainly by killing cattle, and If policy was
adopted by our general government requir-
ing that every person in the land who had
the disease in some form, every animal
in the land that had a trace of it, should
have but few people and animals left. The
facts are we are all liable to have 1t by
reason Of our system becoming debilitated
by other disease bad sanitation about
our homes, barns and stables. Therefore,
the better way will be for us to take the
best care possible of ourselves and cattle
and other animals, and kill them only when
they show unmistakable signs of the dis
ease, and oppose all laws which empower
health boards to send cranks about the
country injecting tuberculin into cows
which are apparently healthy or even have
a cough. until it becomes chronic at least.
Neither is it necessary for anyone TO go
into Mysteries over it, and fly into fit
of dependency because he hears a cow
cough. Neither is there any necessity of
a man in the city refusing to drink milk by
reason of it. The chances are a hundred
to one that should he even drink the milk
from a tuberculous COW. there would be no
germs in the milk, and if there were the
elements in the mans blood would kill them
as soon as they reached it. Then don't be
fool enough to get scared and imagine that
every cow in the herd is diseased until she
shows some signs OF disease. AS long as
she eats WE'LL looks well, acts we'll, she
won't kill anybody. Several other. in
quirers can consider this an answer to them
also.

LONDON, March 10.-George Muller, the
philanthropist is dead.
George Muller, famous as the founder of
an orphans home at Bristol, England, was
born near Halberstadt. Prussia, Sept. q,
1905. At an early age he acquired dissipated
habits and at the age of sixteen was i'm
prisoned for defrauding an innkeeper. He
went to Halle as student of divinity and
a visit which he paid to private meeting
for praise and prayer to God proved to be
the turning point in his career. At the age
or tWenty-three he took up his abode in
free lodgings which were provided for poor
divinity students and began to preach and
he studied Hebrew and Chaldaic with the
view to becoming missionary to the Jews.
settling at Teignmouth he became the min
lister Of EbeneZer Chapel and in conducting
1t abolished all collections and depended
solely on voluntary gifts In 1895 he printed
proposals for the establishment of an
orphan house, which took definite shape the
following year, at Bristol. AS the result
only of prayer to God he announced that
he had received 2S4,4A up to 1856 on behalf
of the orphans, who then numbered 297.
By 1875 there were more than 1000 children
lodged, fed and educated In 1889 it was
nounced that the orphans home and aSSo-
ciated enterprises had cost about 936 900,
which sum was the result of faith and
prayer and voluntary subscriptions on the
part of the public. Muller visited the East
on an evangelstic tour in 1889. In 1887 he
published "A Narrative of Some of the
Lords Dealings with George Muller and
from 1841 to 1856 three other portions of
this work were published.

VIZCAYA NOT FORMIDABLE.
The Iowa Could Blow Out Her Boilers
in Ten Minutes.

HAVANA, March 10.-As an indication of
the estimate put on the Vizcaya and the
Almirante Oquendo, sister Ships by naval
officers here a remark Of one of them made
to-day is worth reporting The officer was
standing with the correspondent on the
quay watching the Vizcaya as she swung
with the tide. YES" he observed, ''she is
q beautiful ship, but too big a mark The
Iowa. for instance. could not miss her with
a single shot at reasonable fighting range,
and would be likely to blow her boilers out
in the first ten minutes" The same officer
said: 1.-The Pelayo is a really formidable
battle ship, but smaller and less dangerous
than our Massachusetts,
There is some talk here to the effect that
the American government has arranged for
laying cable from Key West to the Tortu-
gas, as the latter is the best rendezvous for
the fleet, since the largest ships are able
to coal there in all sorts of weather.
Henri Lame, the newspaper correspond
ent, was not compelled to leave the country
because of newspaper work, but because of
written charges, accompanied by alleged
full proof furnished to the autonomic gov
eminent by Senior Bruzon, governor of Ha-
vana province, that he and others were in
volved in the conspiracy responsible for To-
eating twenty-five dynamite bombs at va
rious points in Havana. Senior Bruzon de-
manded the expulsion of all newspaper cor
respondents on the ground that sensa-
ticnal stories sent to the United States were
liable to create riots in Havana. The Mar
quis De Montoro and Senior Gown opposed
wholesale deportation, saying that the mat
ter was very serious, and that 1t was the
duty of the autonomic government not only
to preserve peace in Havana, but to pro-
note good feeling with the United States.
Furthermore, they contended that not all
the correspondents should be under the ban,
but that selections should be made of the
guilty. They concluded their reply to Senior
Bruzon by saying that it would be unwise
to expel any correspondents while the court
OF inquiry was in session, lest it should
seem that the Spaniards dreaded the publi-
cation of the truth about the Maine explo-
sion. They demanded additional written
charges, with proofs from Senior Bruzon.
This was four days ago. and nothing has
been forthcoming. 1t is probable, however,
that certain correspondents will be asked

spanish Cruelty in Cuba.

Julian Hawthorne, in Golfers Weekly.
1 have written elsewhere about the starv-
ing people in Havana and it's environs and
do not care to return to that narrowing
subject here No provision whatever was
made for them by the authorities; they
were brought there to die, and they died.
They were all women and children; tho
children and the mothers of the new Cuban
generation, which is thus extirpated for
ever with no possibility of renewal. Has
there been no change of policy for the bet
ter under Blanco?" l asked. Yes in
name" said my interlocutor, but in fact
everything goes on much the same; these
people are not only starved, but outside or
Havana they are also cut up with the ma
chete, burned and tortured" The idea
seems to be, since it has proved impossible
to conquer the rebels in the field to use
this means of conquering them ultimately.
Their existence has been limited to the
span of their natural lives; after they are
dead, there will be no posterity to inherit
their patrimony Whether or not Spain is
forced to withdraw from the island, in a
few years there will be no Cubans in it. It
will be populated by new race, from this
and other countries. We may have what
ever satisfaction can be derived from the
reflection that, owing to our negligence
our extraordinary respect for international
courtesies--a whole people has actually
been exterminated within ninety miles of
the domain of the United States, and exter-
minated with cruelties such as have been
unknown in Christendom for a thousand
wears.

rifles recovered from the wreck. Mr. Bis

was also on board. Both official stenog-
raphers have now left the court, and it has
only a temporary clerk. This leads many
here to think that its work is practically
done, and that it will return to Key West
by or before Saturday The Fern coaled,
and the provisions for the starving Cubans
were then put on board. She is scheduled
to sail for Matanzas tomorrow.
The Marblehead will go from the Tortu-

Coming Autonomist Election.

HAVANA, March 1O.-The central COM
mittee of the Conservative party, after a
debate which lasted until 3 o'clock this
morning, has agreed to take part in the
forthcoming elections. The attitude of the
Conservatives however, does not mean that
they accept the autonomous form of gov
eminent or that they will contribute to it's
establishment. The Conservatives will only
accept the positions to which they may be
elected, so as to watch the proceedings of
the autonomists, defending their interests,
and enable them to protest in Parliament
against the new regime, against the calum-
MES circulated by the Madrid press and
against their arbitrary exclusion from pop
ular representation in the city councils and
provincial assemblies" etc. The Conserva-
tives claim to represent so per cent. of the
wealth of the island, and assert that they
are paying 70 per cent. of all the taxes.
