MINE WORKERS ADJOURNED.


The executive board of the United Mine
Workers adjourned yesterday afternoon
and the members will Immediately go to
their respective districts to begin work
This was the first session of the board
since the national convention last January
and there was much to discuss. Some of
the important matters brought up were of
legislative Importance. 1t was decided to
agitate a movement for the government
to investigate the many recent mine ex-
blossoms, and If there is a way, to make
law that will lessen the loss of life on
account of these disasters. Another i'm
portant matter will be the appointment of
practical men as NINE factory and indus
trial inspectors. 1t was asserted that men
are appointed to these places who know
nothing about the work, through political
influence, and the demand will be that
mine inspectors be experienced and prac-
teal miners.
ing politics and is strongly adverse to the
organization showing any preference
toward any political party. Samuel Com
pers, president of the American Federation
of Labor, was cited as an illustration of
how a man may maintain his standing
in labor circles so long as he steers clear
OF politics 1t is the general sentiment of
the board that labor organization loses
its usefulness as soon it enters politics.
The resignation of w. G. Pierce, secretary
treasurer of the union. was also topic Of
discussion, as ii is said he used his office
ment as a member of the industrial COM
mission. His action in resigning is con-
demned by some members of the board and
they say he will not get the appointment.

FINANCES OF THE CITY
CONTROLLER SENDS A STATEMENT
TO MAYOR TAGGART.
City Will Probably Have to Make a
Temporary Loan-Wafting for
Supreme Court Decision.

Before leaving the city yesterday City
Controller Johnson sent TO Mayor Taggart
a statement of the city's finances. which
he prepared for the use of the City Coun-
ell. The figures will not be given out until
they are read before the Council. 1t is said
the statement shows the city TO be In 8
poor financial condition and that last Mon
day the city had to its credit in the treas
urer's Office s2S1.OOO OF this amount 1890
will have to be deducted for paying for
bridges. $4,000 was paid by the street-rail-
way company which must be used for
parks, and about $4,000 will have to be
paid to the Riverside Construction Com
pany. The remaining 1000. with the small
revenue to be derived from miscellaneous
sources, must pay the city's expenses from
now until the fall taxes are paid. The
statement sets out in detail all appropria-
tons and the balances unexpended. Those
who have followed the condition of the
city's finances say it will be necessary for
the city to make a temporary loan during
the summer or stop paying. The city au-
thorities are watching eagerly for the SUI
preme Court decision in the school bond
case and if it is decided against the city II
is thought a temporary loan cannot be
made.
A prominent Republican member of the
Council was asked last night what might
be the attitude of the Republicans in the
Council regarding a temporary loan. He
said before he would agree to vote for a
loan the city officials must make COM
plete statement as to the money needed,
for what purpose and why there is a short
age.
