VII Meet in This City on June 20th to
 Transact important Business.

The state executive board of the United Mine Workers of America, which met in Blocton on Thursday, changed the date of holding the state convention from the 17th to the 2Oth instant. The meeting of the board was held behind closed doors and nothing has been given out for publica- ton except the date of holding the state convention as above stated
 This convention promises to be largely attended and will have important matters to come before 1t. The present wage con- tract expires on July 1, and this question will be one of tine most important that the convention will have to deal with.
 Under the present contract most of the miners are paid according to a sliding scale based upon the price of pig iron. At the state convention held in this city some weeks ago, a resolution was adopted fa- voring demand for an advance in wages.
 The convention will probably meet in Clerks hall. orner Third avenue and Nineteenth street.

he thought the senate conference had se- curd the greatest possible concessions from the house and because he thought the situa- ton was such that immediate action was demanded.
 MT. Cannon criticised the conference re- port and said there was danger In freeing the Cubans of our own people being en- siaved. He thought he saw in the progress of the war so far as 1t had gone, project of imperialism calculated to surprise the civilized world. He contended that this was the original adm of the war and that on this account, if on no other, opposition was justihable.
 MT. Stewart spoke in opposition to the issuance of bonds, dealing in extenso with the financial question.

 Liquidation of Claims
 Mir. Clay, of Georgia, then entered upon a brief discussion of the disclosures con cernng the disposition of the money paid by congress in liquidation of the claims Of the book concern of the Methodist Episco- pal Church, South. He believed the claim was a just one and expressed his grtihca- tion that the senate had rallied to It's sup port The attitude of the senators from the northern states who had supported the measure was, he said, appreciated by the people of Georgia and of the entire south. He was certain, too. that they would dis approve of the action of the men who had misled the senate. Such action could be interpreted only as "palpable fraud upon the Methodist church," and the en- tire transaction ought to be exposed He expressed the belief that when the facts wer brought to the attention of the church authoriteis they would repudiate 1t and he demanded that investigation of the mat ter be thorough and searching.

Spec al Dispatch to The Age-Herald.
 Mobile, June 10.-Todays announcement Of the presence of yellow fever at McHenry Miss, ninety-nine miles, from Mobile has caused stir among the volunteers of the hrst division, army corps, encamped here.
 They are speculating on the possibilities or encountering contagion before going to Cuba or Porto Rico, and the subject Is now oVershadowing all strictly military matters at General Wheaton's camp. The ques- tion is asked: Did the war department have some inkling of the fever several days ago, and thereupon changed it's plans for mobilizing large army at Mobile? It Is a fact that General Coppinger and his staff regarded this as being their perman- ent headquarters until the general move ment of the volunteers to the front was ordered. Staff officers had rented houses when suddenly the order came directing them to, go to Tampa.
 Orders Countermanded -
 Various local orders for future supplies were countermanded. Significance is at tached to the presence of Surgeon Mur- ray, M. H. S., at McHenry, Mss when the fever was declared to exist. He left here before General Coppinger changed his head quarters to Tampa. Comparatively little uneasiness is felt by the soldiers or people In Mobile. They appreciate that McHenry, MlSs., IS isolated; the type of fever ex- tremely mild and quarantine we'll organ ized. It Is no more than likely to come here than iS is to Pensacola, New Or leans, Tampa, or any point on the gulf coast.
 Will Be No Epidemic
 Dr. Goode, acting state health officer for Alabama, has quarantned all Mississippi gulf ports and so have Louisiana and Florida authorities. pr. Goode docs not believe the fever developed from last year 8 leftover germs. ''McHenry, Miss," said he, "is within fourteen m les of Ship Islard d quarantine station, and 1t was from that point the fever Is believed to have been spread last summer The medical authori- ties have been watching for it, and the quarantine system is greatly improved. We believe that there will be no epidemic, that the cases, all of a mild type, will be speedily stamped out. An immense advant- age is gained by having discovered the fever as soon as it appeared. All commu- ncation has been cut off and TO one is allowed to leave McHenry. which place. too. Is naturally isolated since it is on a logging road twenty-five miles from a trunk line. Gulf ports on the Louisville and Nashville is the nearest station"
 Noble People Not Frightened
 Last years visitation of yellow fever was so mild that the people heres S,em to have gotten over that panicky feel ng heret fore produced when the malady was m ntion d. The confidence expressed by c.t'zens as to their safety greatly reassures the soldiers. Tt won't be long before are sent to Porto Rico anyhow, and this thing doesn' t bother us," said an officer. He expressed the sentiment of the camp.

 The contest for the honors really lay be- tween J. w. OHara, R. L. Griffin, Miss Eugenia Weatherly and J. B. Tfdwell.

WORST NEWS
 SINCE THE WAR Appearance of Yellow Fever Will CompIicate War Matters. WILL RAPIDLY MULTIPLY Efforts Being Made to Have the Camps Re- Removed Inland From the Coast Cities
 Gen. Stremberg's Crazy
 Ideas of the South. s~
Special Dispatch to The Age-Herald.

Special Dispatch to The Age-Herald.
 Washington. June 10.-The worst news which has been received here since the war began was contained in the short dis paches this morning from McHenry, Miss, where it was said that seven cases of yell low fever had been located.
 The dispatch came on last night and at once Surgeon-General Wyman telegraphed to two assistant surgeons in that vicinity, who hastened there and approved the local diagnosis. General Wyman said today that the cases were left over ones from last year, which in itself wa9 a bad feature. He hoped that no other cases would de- velop and it was possible that the disease could be held in that immediate vicinity. The worst effect of the news was seen at the war department where it has greatly complicated the situation and added addi- tional anxiety to the administration Of military affairs.
 Remove Camps Inland
 A number of southern senators and rep- resentatives at once called on the president and urged him to have the military camps removed from the sea coast to the interior and the northern parts of Alabama, Geor- gia and South Carolina. Senator Caffrey and Senator Bacon assured the president that there were certain parts of the states which are practical y immune of tie dis ease. The fact that the fever has shown up sooner than was exp cted argued very bad for the future. Senator Caffrey told the president that the fever had never been killed, that there was not enough cod weather to destroy the germs, which, un- der the heat of this spring, would multiply with frightful rapidity.
 Silly Gen. Sternberg
 Unfortunately the surgeon of the army, General Sternberg, believes that the enti 0 south is alike and said today that the troops would be as safe on the coast as ill the interior. He said that the coast was more liable to the disease only from impor- tation. The senators and representa- lives from the south deny that such Is the case, and will use every influence to have the troops moved further back. They fear at the fever might break out In one of the camps and that through assertions and nasty removals the disease might be spread in all directions.
 There is a great deal of feeling here on the subject and the president is being urged to lose no time in affording protec- ton to the troops, even If the general in vasion of Cuba has to be postponed until the fall.

now been done and the result accord
ing to Mr. Swanzy's official report is
most gratifying to all who assisted in
making the ball so pleasing a success.
The receipts are given at $40, and
the expenditures, which for once were
$50 within the liberal estimates, $470.-
IS, leaving a balance of $36915 for the
benefit of the British Benevolent So

tickets sold was 332, and 165 were

due to the very active interest taken

Acknowledgement Smith has return
ed from Maui, where he visited his
brand new grandson and incidentally
attended to some business for the Gov
eminent. Mr.. Smith looked into mat
ter of the capture of the contraband
schooner Labrador and confirmed his
opinion that the customs and police
authorities had done excellent work in
the affair Mr. Smith visited the new
wharf of the Hawaiian Commercial Co.
The only work under way there is
strengthening of the structure already
made when the injunction Of the Gov
eminent took effect. The Attorney
General says that a first class dock is
planned and that the work so far is
of a substantial nature. The only
difference in the matter between the
Government and the Hawaiian Com
mercial people is that the corporation
claims it can have water front prop
erty strictly as a private enterprise.
The Government cannot agree to this
at all.
