Mr.. JUST SPEAKS WELL
| FOR wage arbitration.
THE PLAN ADOPTED BY THE COAL
MINERS AND OPERATORS
WORKS WELL.
MORE CORDIAL RELATIONS
HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED, AND
THE CONFERENCE HAS ENDED
EVERY DISPUTE

WASHINGTON, May 13.-The sys-
TENS of arbitration and joint agree
ments in the bituminous coal fields of
Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania were described before the indus
trial commission to-day by Herman
JUST, commissioner of the Illinois Coal
Operators Association. Senator Kyle,
chairman of the committee, presided.
Mr.. Justi described the scope of the
association. All disputes, he said, were
referred to a commission consisting of
himself, for the operators, and Presi-
dent Mitchell, of the United Mine
Workers, or some some other miners
representative. The decision of this
commission always had been final 81
believe" he said, that 95 per cent of
all disputes can be settled by a con-
ference of the interested parties. These
conferences have led to very much more
cordial relations between the men,"

A SAD RETROSPECT.
Lord Salisbury Finds No Consolation
Except that Home Rule was Not
Granted Ireland.

Except that Home Rule was Not
Granted ireland.
LONDON, May 13.-The Marquis Of
Salisbury, speaking tonight at the
banquet of the Non-C onformist Union
list Association, said:
'It is a sad retrospect, when We
think of the number of young lives that
have been quenched, the splendid hopes
cut short and the amount of bloodshed
in the war in South Africa. 1t is a gr:e-
vous retrospect Yet from it any sug-
gestion of wrong on the part of the
empire is absolutely absent. Indeed
there are circumstances which can
make every lover of his country look
back with exultation and gratitude up
ON the two years just passed.
"These circumstances have been able
to show that the spirit of our country
men has burned as bright as at any
other period in our history.
when | was at the foreign Office,
used to hear not infrequently that our
time had passed, that our star had set
and that we were living on the valor of
those who had gone before. The war in
South Africa has shown the strength of
England, which was never more con-
clusively shown. There is no power in
the world now but knows if it defied
the might of England it would defy one
of the most formidable enemies It
could encounter"
Subsequently the premier said:
''If home rule had passed in 1893
what would England's position, with a
hostile Irish government in Dublin,
have been to-day? Whatwould our po-
sition have been if we had not only
had to meet the Transvaal and the
Orange Free State, but also an equally
hostile Ireland by our side Ne know
now from our South African experience
the danger of letting Ireland have a
measure of independence. We know
now that if we allowed those who are
leading Irish politics unlimited power
of making preparations against us We
should have to begin by conquering
Ireland if we ever had to fight another
power"

PREPARED FOR TROUBLE.

TWO PASSENGERS LOST
ON THE CITY OF PADUCAH.
TWENTY-FIVE MEMBERS OF THE
CREW, MOSTLY NEGROES,
ARE MISSING.
THE BOAT STRUCK A sNAG
WHILE BACKING OUT FROM
LANDING AND SANK IN FIVE
MINUTES.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, May 13-A special
er, H., says:
The steamer City of Paducah sank in
25 feet of water, five minutes before 10
o'clock last night, in less than five
minutes after striking a snag and
while backing out from Brunkhorst
Landing.
The bodies of the two passengers who
were drowned, have been recovered.
and % members of the crew, most of
them negroes, are missing
All of the officers were saved.
First mate Tobias Royal, of ST. Louis,
says only about twelve passengers were
on board and all were saved except two.
the body of Dr. j. ". Bell, OF Bells
landing, Tenn, was taken out Of his
state room The remains OF a young
woman on which was a visiting card
reading: Mrs. Harry l.. Allen, 1880
Eads avenue, st. Louis, No." was re-
covered from her stateroom. Two
friends travelling with the drowned wo-
man who started back to St Louis on
the City of Clifton, said that Tie young
lady was engaged to marry Dr. c. A.
Meredith, 1903 Lee avenue, st. Louis.
Several hundred dollars worth of jew
elry was found on her body
The passenger list has not been re-
covered A diver is searching for it.
Only the Texas and the Hurricane deck
are above water, which reaches to the
skylights of the cabins. All the state
rooms are completely filled with water
The steamboat drifted a third of a
mile below the landing before she sank.
The first mate says the boat went down
within three minutes after striking the
snag. He was en- the cabin deck and
escaped by climbing through the sky
light
It is supposed that most Of the miss
ing deckhands who were on the lower
deck, were washed down the river.
The boat lies about 100 feet from the
Illinois shore the forepart of the hurri-
cane deck being under water She APP
pears to be total wreck
The coroner, c. q. Knauer of Muir
physboro, H., is now holding an inquest
while the diver is searching for more
bodies. Thomas Johnston, Waterman
of the boat, who is said to be among the
lost, was IS years old and had been d
steamboatman for sixty years He liv-
ed in st. Louis.

COMPROMISE PLAN
May Result in Eliminating the Bur-
Hngton as a Disturbing Factor.
NEW YORK, May 13.-The Evening

ingtOn as a Disturbing Factor.
NEW YORK, May 13.-The Evening
Post says:
1t is believed that some arrangements
will be worked out by which the Bur-
lington will be held so that it cannot
possibly be operated to injure any of
the western railroads. That is, the
Union Pacific will not only get an inter
est in the property but the ST. Paul.
which, next to the Union Pacific, was
most seriously jeopardized by the pass
ing of Burlington's control to the
Northern Transcontinental lines, will
share in the Burlington contract, so
that it will be removed absolutely as a
disturbing factor in the railroad ~situa-
ton. 1t is not believed that J. P.
Morgan & Company will be displaced,
as the interest responsible before the
public for the management Of that
property, but there was some suggestion
to-day that the alliance between Mr..
Hill and Mr.. Morgan. which has been
only of about six months duration, will
be ended. There is good ground for say
ing that, while Mr.. Hill has probably re-
tanned the large interest in Northern
Pacific which he acquired last summer,
when the stock declined below, on the
reduction of the dividend, the most in
fiuential of Mr.. Hills friends in the di
rectorate have liquidated their holdings.
They were, with Mr.. Hill, who is not a
Northern Pacific director, the most en-
thusiastic advocates of the Burlington
deal. This was long opposed by the
older Northern Pacific people."
