It was learned yesterday afternoon
that one OF the matters taken up at
the executive" session of the Ohio
Valley Trades and Labor Assembly
Sunday afternoon was the allegation
made In an indirect manner the Sunday
before that Mr.. Thomas L. Lewis, the
over the-rivcr labor leader. had been
endeavoring to raise the boycott on
the Ohlo-side line, for reasons not con-
duclve to his integrity. The assembly,
1t Is learned, instructed that Mr.. Lewis
be notified to appear before Its official
board tomorrow evening to answer
charges that would be formally prefer
red against him at that time relative to
his conduct in the recent negotiations
for the settlement Of the strike.
Mr.. Lewis friends on both sides Of
the river will receive this information
with Indignation, and with the belief
that his traducers will be COMPOUNDED
when he confronts them. Anyone who
knows Lewis will risk In advance the
prediction that he is guiltless of any
wrong doing, and his lifetime devotion
to the cause of labor supports the pre-
dlctiOn
The Lewis incident is another Of n
train OF events Of recent development
that have separated the two local Gen.
trail bodies OF organized labor, the Ohio
Valley and Belmont assemblies. and the
action of the Ohio Valley In aspersing

that was not narrow before.
In the Ohio Valley assembly itself
there are signs-more than signs-of
approaching internal dissenslons. "One-
man" rulership OF that organization
has been apparent even to outsiders.
There are many who are becoming res
tive under the Tighe yoke, and 1t would
not be surprising If 1t were speedily
thrown off. 1t Is known that the
chances of settlement of the street car
strike on the Wheeling lines have been
materially lessened by the unbending.

The Labor Clash.

At 1:30 o'clock this morning, too late
for Its publication, a lengthy statement
from the Ohio Valley Trades Assem-
blys executive board. relative to the

Ger. Concluding. the statement says:
president Padden. Of local No. 1O3.
has just arrived from Cleveland. where
he was in conference with President w.
D. Mahon, who derounces the action of
the Belmont Central Trades & Labor
Union. and in day or two Mr.. Mahon
will be In Wheeling to make known the
right and wrong of the case, and then
justice will be done to all"
The Ohio Valley assembly board last
night issued q card, asking It's sup
porters not to recognize the lifting of

Bands on the Bottle Field.

THE utility of music in matters per-
tanning to war is probably one of the
greatest forces. At the present day,
in all the armies of the world, musical
war signals are considered not only use
full but absolutely indispensable. The In
fantry drill regulations of many countries
give the music and significance of more
than sixty trumpet signals-calls of nam
ing, of assembling, of alarm, of service
and so on-besides dozen or more drum
and fife signals. all of which is a definite
language to soldiers.
But its use is not merely confined to sig
mailing, for music is used in other WAYS
for purposes of war. In the way of dis
polling WEAKNESS on the march, nothing is
equal to the music of a brass band Lord
WolSeley, says Pearsons, has remarked
that troops that sing as they march will
not only reach their destination more
quickly and in better fighting condition
than those who march in silence but in
spired by the music and words of the Ma
tional song will feel that self-confidence
which is the mother of victory"
Probably SavageS are the most suscep-
tible to the warlike feeling inspired by
certain class music 1t arouses their an
ger. incites their fanaticism, and by ac-
companying their war dances in time OF
peace it arouses their lust of war For
this reason it is among warlike nations
that early music was most developed
The German army includes more than
ten thousand military musicians Other
powerful nations on the Continent employ
rather less numbers in military bands.

change my clothing, for we were frozen
up in an open icepack and were not pro-
visioned for an extended blockade. 1t Is
a fearful thing in the Arctic to be en-
bedded by the ice, especially the young
ice, which every mariner breads, 1t Is so
sharp, and cuts both wood and steel
THE captain stood in the crow s-nest
at the masthead night and day, shout
ing 'Starboard and steady and then Port,
and SO on, working his way through the
field ice. The anchors were dropped and
hauled UP like 9, pump handle TO cut the
packice which was six feet thick about
the bark. The crown of the anchor was
soon polished as bright as a new dollar.
For days and days we watched for
breeze, and when at last through the
glass some one perceived swell that
lifted the great white plain into pillows
from the southeast there was a shout
from the sailors and a thank God feel
ing from the hearts of US all Within
twelve hours the southeast wind had
chopped the ice up into small chunks and
we were soon out of our difficulty
but the most terrible storm that Cap
tain West ever weathered swooped down
upon us off the coast of Japan less than
a year ago. 1t was a regular typhoon,
and we were IN the vortex of it.
The waves broke right in on deck and
over the stern and washed away a heavy
tool chest that had been dashed, and two
of the boats on the cranes were smashed
and carried away. Oh, 1t was a terrific
sea Our oil bags were all emptied TO
f1atten 1t, and the ship laid over with her
lee bulwarks under water. The barome
ter fell to $3.50.
when the ship hove down, If the wind
had not knocked the sea down the Hora
tao would have been dashed to pieces.
AS II was we sprung the main topmast
and twisted the rudder-head off. Every
man was aft-nobody forward-and the
sailors were dashed or had ropes about
their waists when venturing to obey or
ders. That's the worst strain when the
ship is hove down like that with the wheel
dashed. There's always danger of losing
her rudder.
up to that time the wind had been
blowing from the southeast and the whole
main topsail was set In the calm between
the shifts of wind from southeast TO
northwest. Then the wind came down
with all its force, butt end to- as the
captain expressed it. 1t came so sudden
" that we could not furl the sails, and
then we expected the mast to be carried
away.
THE captain had dashed me to a chair
below, because l insisted upon being near
him, and the fury of the storm made 1t
