NEW LABOR FEDERATION.
Proposed to Combine All the Traffic
Workers on Lakes.

"OTkeFS on Lakes.
TOLEDO, Ohio, October 3O-A circular
has just been issued to members of the
unions interested outlining the plans for
the formation of a new Federation of La
Dor. which is to combine the railroad or
ganizations on the roads that run from the
mines to the upper lake ports, and also
from the lower lake ports to the mills, and
all the marine and dock organiza tions. The
circular points out the folly of labor or
ganiZations fighting their battles in iso-
lated groups.
1t also points out that all the railroads
and boat lines engaged in the lake ore and
coal trade are combined for mutual profit
and protection, and that the workers in
this field should do the same If they hope
to be able to cope with situations that may
arise.
The circular has been sent to all the off,
GERS of the unions of the proposed fedora
ton, and at the close of navigation meet
ing will be called at Cleveland to form the
new federation. 1t Is understood that the
officials of the Marine Engineers Bene-
ficial Association are at the head of the
movement. Among the marine organiza-
tions to be included are the constituent
bodies of the International Longshoremen
the Lake Seamen's Union. the Masters and
Pilots Association, the Tug Firemen and
Linemen's Protective Association on the
maritime end of the great labor combine
On the other side will be the unions of men
engaged in mining ore and the five power
full railway organizations.

Earl Russell's Former Wife Did Not
Take Advice of Counsel

LONDON, October 3O.-Countess Russell
acted without the knowledge of her legal
advisers in cabling to Assistant Secretary
Taylor of the Treasury Department at
Washington asking for a public apology
from him for statement alleged to have
been made by him regarding the divorce
granted to Earl Russell in America.
She appears to have been under the i'm
preston that Mr.. Taylor had declared that
the American divorce was valid, and that
he had thus indirectly indorsed as true any
evidence adverse to the countess given in
the course of the proceedings in the United
States. If she follows the advice of her
attorneys the countess will drop the mat

SOME SHEEP NOTES.

Sheep husbandry will always be
regarded as one of the great indus
tries which are at once an incident
and leading factor in the prosperity
Of every civilized country.
Admitting that fat sheep are tho
most tempting to butchers and deal
ers, the man who owns the sheep is
the man who should determine when
he should sell and what he will sell.
Grain, when used in reasonable
quantities, is all right. but many
good lambs growth has been ruined
and many mature sheep killed
through ignorance of the proper use
of same.
Don't for q moment think OF
breeding from ram deficient back of
the shoulders. We get very large
per cent. of lambs defective at that
point even when sired by symmetri-
cal animals.
The flock of sheep will not only
pay for themselves directly in their
wool and mutton. but they will indi-
reetly benefit the land and crops.
They are of inestima bic value in the
clover and grass pastures, and even
in the orchard V here their little feet
VIII press down the grass roots so the
soil will cling better to them.
The man vino labors to improve
the sheep and its fleece, so as to bet
ter fit it to niece the requirements OF
mankind, is of the most benefcent
character. for i means cheap food
and clothing for the masses, and of
the best quality. While therefore,
the breeder is striving to better his
own condition, he is comforting a
lasting benefit upon the country ~
large.

Wise men say there is nothing really

The total amount of coal produced in
the district during the year 1899 was
1874, 571 tons, showing a falling off
this year Of 1,0o5,o23 tons. This shrink
age Is, Of course, attributable to the
six weeks strike in the fall. There
were twenty-seven widows and fifty
orphans under fourteen years left to
mourn the deaths Of the men who lost
their lives during the year.
The report shows that in producing
the coal there were 204,359 kegs of pow
der used. Thirty-one tons of coal were
produced for every keg OF powder.
There were 1875 pounds OF dynamite
used.
The inspector reports that in no mine
in the district Is there a deficiency of
means for the proper ventilation. In
mines where there is not proper ven
tilation, the fault. he says. lies with
the foremen who sometimes show
and false ideas of economy.
In referring to the fatal accidents he
says that So per cent. occurred near
the gangways and chambers. This
shows that the main roads OF the mines
are comparatively free from danger
He refers especially to the carelessness
and recklessness of many of the miners
and says that II they were half as
careful of their own lives as those EN-
ploying them are there would be fewer
accidents,
