THE MINERS ARE
 STANDING FIRM In Their Demands for Better
 Wages in Arkansas. ARE CONFIDENT OF WINNING The Men at Huntington have Grievances of Their Own and are Not Laying Down Their Tools Merely
 Through Sympathy.
ARE CONFIDENT OF WINNING

Fort Smith, Ark, March 1.-The miners at Huntington are holding out firmly for their demands, only few being at work, and they misunderstood the strike order at first. They are laying down their tools and going out as rapidly as the situation can be explained to them. But little coal is being taken out, and the amount is daily decreasing. The Huntington men have grievances of their own, and theirs Is not a sympathetic strike. They are orderly but determined, and are confident of winning their fight.
 At Govern, I. T., the situation remains about the same. All the old miners are out and no work is being done. Yesterday the company discharged one of their hosting engineers because, 1t is alleged, he was in sympathy with the strikers. Superintend- ent Ludlow, whose action in discharging union men caused the trouble at the out set, and General Manager Wood, of the Choctaw company, had a long conference yesterday
 The miners believe that Ludlow will be discharged and the trouble then settled. They say they can remain out six months, and will do so if MT. Ludlow is not re- moved.
 The mines at Wiburton, I. T., remain practically idle. All the employees of the McAlister Coal and Mineral company are out and are standing firm.
 A telegram to A. H. Raymond, general sales agent of the Western Coal and Min ing company from w. T. Clelland, super- intendent of the Osage mines at Krebs, I. T., says that the men there have returned to work in the mines of tho Western Coal and Mining company at that place.
 The telegram says:
 Mass meeting at each mine this morning voted to work, 402 to 62 against. This was by vote of 446 to work against 62 to strike. Shipments will be resumed tomor- row."

D- THE HOUSE

washington, March 4.-Wearily the house sat through the silent watches of the night, recessing from time to time while awaiting conference reports on the appro- priation bis The floor of the house was filtered with waste papers, which drifted ankle-deep about the desks and made the hall look as if 1t had been swept by snowstorm. Still the weary and heavy eyed legislators kept to their posts through out the night.
 The leaders upon whom the strain and burden of the closing hours fell most heavily, and the speaker. who had the greatest responsibility of all, remained con- stantly in their places, watching vigantly the progress of the contests between tho two houses The final agreement on the river and harbor bill containing the com promise on the Nicaragua canal, was se- cured about 3:30 a. m., the sundry civil bill, in which the house forced the senate to surrender the provision for the Pacific ca- ble about 6 o'clock; the District of Colum- bia, with the provision for sectarian insti- tutions eliminated, about I o'clock; the de- fcient at S:S0 and the final conference re- port upon the naval bill at about 9:30 a. m.
 Bedragglcd Scene
 The hall presented a bedraggled scene when tho daylight, sitting through the ground glass ceilings jlmraed the yellow lights this morning. The red-eyed mem- bcrs sat listlessly in their seats and the flow persons in the galleries slumbered peacefully.

THE RIVERS AND HARBOR BILL

Washington, March 4.-Vice President Hobart declared the senate of the fifty-fifth congress adjourned without day eight min utes after 12 o'clock today. It was after 0 continuous session beginning at Il o'clock on Friday, with the exception of one hour S recess during the forenoon. The day of final adjournment broke with the senate in executive session, disposing of a large num- Der of nominations. When the doors were opened there were soon but a handful of tired and haggard-looking senators, who were waiting for the final reports from the conferees on the two bills yet in dispute. Finally MT. Hale appeared with both. The deficiency bill was quickly passed, and then came the final and closing fight on the naval bill and the price of armor plate, and for the armor plate factory. This was finally over, and the weary senators took a short recess.
 Finally the last big appropriation bill had received the presidents approval andn everything was ready for the close. The resolution thanking Vce-President Hobart and President Pro Fem Frye were adopted, the vice-presdent responding in appropriate address and the senate, which had been in a turmoil for several days quietly came to an end.
 The fight over the naval appropriation
 Fight on Naval Bill
 bill began at 6 o'clock, when the confer ence report came in. The report restored all the ships provided for by the house, but it actually prevented the building of them by leaving in tho Chandler amend men that no ship shall be begun until con- tracts were made for the armor plate. The provision to pay only 30$0 per ton was left in, and as no armor plate can be secured at this price the Chandler amendment pre- vents the new ships from being started.
 The conference knocked out the provision for a government armor plate plant and allows the secretary to buy armor plate at S4e0 per ton for vessels now building, lim- iting the $500 provision to vessels author ized in this bill.
 The struggle over this bill continued until 9:30 O clock, when the opposition gave way and the bill was adopted. The senate then took recess until 10,30 o'clock The naval bill was rushed across to the house and agreed to at 9:35 o'clock ,and it was then announced that all the necessary legis- lat.on had bee ncompleted, for an agree ment had been reached on the general defi- ciency bill and thereupon the house took another recess.
 The rivers and harbors bill as passed, in- cludes an appropriation of $S00,00 under the continuing contract plan for the improve ment of the Warrior river
