CURRENCY QUESTION.
United States Soon to be Placed on
a Sound Money Basis.

MILWAUKEE,, June 10. = National
Republican Committeeman Henry c..
Payne of Wisconsin, who returned to-
day from New York, where he attend
ed conference of the Senate Finance
Committee, makes a statement to the
Milwaukee Journal that in his opin-
ion a bill will be formulated at the
coming Congress that will place the
United States upon gold standard
basis. His statement follows:
1T is my judgment, after being in
consultation with the Senate Finance
Committee members at the meeting at
the Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York, that
a plan for the revision of our monetary
system that will be satisfactory, not
only to the Senate. but the House as
we'll, will finally be approved, and that
that plan will be formulated into a
bill which will become a law.
"That law will provide for placing
the United States upon a gold standard.
It will be enlinently satisfactory to the
gold standard men and the friends of
sound money
"Of course, no formal action of the
Senate committee has been taken. but
from expressions of members 1 have
no hesitaney in saying that this meme
tary reform legislation will be brought
about. 1t is certainly legislation that
is needed.
Il do not believe there will he spe-
cial session of Congress unless there
should be some developments in the
Philippine situation that would require
consideration at date earlier than
the regular session"

IRON MOUNTAIN, STRIKERS.
Have Transferred Their Headquar-
ters to Redding.

REDDING, June 15.-The striking
miners of Iron Mountain have transfer
red their headquarters from the mines
to Redding. To-day they marched
around the streets and held frequent
consultations on the corners. The min
ers are not drinking and are very or
derly. There seems to be few hard
characters among them.
A telegram appearing in a San Fran
cisco paper on Wednesday stating that
30 per cent. of the miners were ex-con-
victs, and that troops will be called
out by the Governor. has caused great
Indignation among the strikers. The
miners are disgusted with the Mount ain
Copper Company, and will make no sac
rifices to obtain their places again.
About fifty of them went to San Fran
cisco last night.
The Mountain Copper Company will
attempt TO resume work tomorrow. 1t
seems impossible for them to do so. The
company refuses to accede to the
strikers wage scale and none will go
back unless the scale is met Expe-
rienced miners are very scarce. An
agent of several of the Wardner, Idaho
mines arrived here to-day, and is try
ing to induce the miners to go to Idaho.
He offered free transportation and $3.50
per day. The miners are cautious about
going to Idaho, as they fear that the
trouble is not over The agent agrees
to take the leaders of the strike, as well
as the others

Beware Of Food Samples.

Quite recently in New York two
deaths occurred from poisoning by the
use of powders sent to the victims by
mail. In Leavenworth, Kans, the
other day nearly every doctor in town
was called to attend the children who
had gathered up, eaten, and been made
I'LL by. samples of an article left at
houses by canvassers for advertising
purposes.
Alum baking powders have always
been favorite articles for this sampling
business. Yet there is nothing more
liable to lead to danger than the prac-
tice of using the various samples of
baking powder left at the door. They
are presented by irresponsible parties.
in appearance are not distinguishable
from arsenic, and indeed, in Indiana
some time since one package was
found, after it had caused the death
of the housewife, to have been mixed
with that poison.
1t is safer to refuse all samples of
food or medicine offered at the door.
Pure cream Of tartar baking powders
sell upon their merits, and are never
peddled or sampled.

Engines Wrecked Beyond Repair, and Cars
Piled Up In Great Disorder.
Fireman Merrill Of the Westbound
Probably Fatally Injured-A
Miracle That Two Cars Of Giant
Powder Did, Not. Explode-The
Overlooking Of Orders Said to
be the Cause of the Accident.

WINNEMUCCA (Nev.), June 15.-
About Z o'clock tonight freight train
No. 2O3, east bound. and freight train
2O6, west bound, came together about
a mile this side of Iron Point, about
twenty miles east of here, in a
head-on collision. The engines were
smashed beyond repair, and fifteen
freight cars piled UP in general disor-
der. The smashup was complete, and
the wreck one of the most disastrous
that has occurred here in months.
Fireman Merrill of 206 was seriously,
and, it Is thought, fatally injured.
Wrecking trains have been ordered
from Wadsworth and a point east of
the wreck.
One of the narrowest of the several
escapes reported was that of the fail
ure to explode of the two cars OF giant
powder which were in the west bound
train. These cars We're well back in the
train, and were not injured. Had they
been further forward the disaster would
have been appalling, for nothing could
have prevented a terrible explosion.
The cause of the wreck is said to be
the overlooking of orders by one of the
trainmen.

squeaked Once Too Often.

Maccabe, the ventriloquist was a
great practical joker. Several years
ago he was on board a river steam
boat, and, having made friends with
the engineer, was allowed the freedom
of the engine-room.
Presently certain part of the ma
chinery began to creak The engineer
oiled it and went about his duties. In
the course of a few minutes the creak-
ing was heard again, and the en-
gineer rushed over, oil-can in hand,
to lubricate the same crank
Again he resumed his post, but it
was only a. few minutes before the
same old crank was creaking louder
than ever.
Great Jupiter!" he yelled, 'the
things bewitched.'
More Oil was administered, but the
engineer began to smell a rat. Pretty
soon the crank squeaked again, when.
slipping up bshind Maccabe, he squirted
half pint of Oil down the joker's
back.
There" said he II guess that crank
won't squeak any more. Spare Mo-
mentS.

Among the characters Of Buffalo, N

as uniformly wise as he is facetious.
The other day he caused the following
to be published in the local paper:

our local clergy are cutting rates and
thereby demoralizing business. I will
not reduce prices to perform the mar
riage ceremony, but will give time, If

COLORADO STRIKE.
No Change in the Situation Since
Wednesday.

DENVER, June 15.-The strike situ-
tion can hardly be said to have expert
enced any change since yesterday, such
Developments as have occurred being
really of q character to be anticipated
The Executive Committee, of the State
Federation of Labor to-day sent let
ter to j. B. Grant. Chairman of the
Operating Committee of the American
Smelling and Refining Company, ask
ing for conference for the purpose of
arranging a settlement of the trouble
between the company and it's employees.
Mr.. Grant replied that while the COM
mittee stood ready at all times to dis
cuss any matter of mutual interest
with the employees of the company, he
could not see what good could come
of a conference with the Federation of
Labor officials, who have no knowledge
Of the smelling business.
]. B. Grant said to-day that the
American Company stood ready to start
all it's plants at once on the eight-hour
basis and pay the scale now in force
at the Hanauer smelter in Utah or the
Argo smelter in Denver He declared
that this was in strict accordance with
the company's original proposition to
ready to abide bysit at any time.
B. P. Smith, Financial Secretary of
the Smeltermen's Union. to-day stated
that the employees of the smelters would
never again consent to the old twelve
hour basis of labor, whether the law
was sustained by the courts or not. He
declared that the work in the smelters
had been increased until the men could
not stand the strain of the long hours,
and that the present struggle would
have come any way if the law had not
been passed.
KANSAS CITY, June 15.-Samuel
Gompers, President of the American
Federation of Labor, who is in this
city. says that the Federation may be
called upon to help the smelter men in
Colorado. This means that the man
who stands at the head of II 500 local
labor unions in the United States, the
strongest combination Of labor in this
country, believes that general sympa-
thetic strike of unions not connected
with the smelters' and miners unions
is not improbable.
