But the Railroad Officials Say It Will

The report that the Rock Island con-
template moving the division point
from Caldwell to Enid, Ok. is denied
at the Rock Island general offices in
this city. The following story comes
from the Enid Coming Events:
The Rock Island Railroad company
has decided to make Enid a division of

and later will be enlarged when the d.
vision is moved from Caldwell here. The
plans of the company are to have di-
visions at Chickasha, Enid and WicE-
ita, at distances of about 80 miles apart
Owing to the fact that the company has
q contract at Caldwell, they cannot re-
move the division from that place for
some time. but as soon as the contract
expires at Caldwell that will be a rail-
road town no more and Enid will have
the yards trackage and roundhouse
they now have.

RUNAWAY TRAIN
Caused q Fireman to Break Two Ribs
and Quit His Job.

The Las Vegas Record tells of a pecu-
liar accident Ut says that at about 10
o'clock in the morning, train No "a ar
rived at Chapelle and stopped there for
water. Leaving the train on the main
track, the engines passed it on a side
track and reached the main line again
behind it at the water tank. While the
engines were taking water, the brakes
became disarranged on the train and it
started down the grade toward the en-
gines with constantly increasing speed
It crashed into the head engine and
damaged it considerably Fireman Per
ryman, who was on the first engine
tender taking water, was thrown off
the tender and had two ribs broken,
besides receiving many bruises. He
was brought to the city and taken TO

the only one injured. He has resigned
from the service of the company and
will leave for the east as soon as he is
able.

Debate and LIS Referred to Exc
cutive Council.
Scranton, Pa, Dec. 1.-Business
closely relating to the organization of
labor in those fields where there is no
union, and strengthening of the hands
of those who have embraced unionism,
took up most of the time of to days
sessions of the American Federation of
Labor, which is now in convention in
this city. Thirty-odd resolutions were
considered, upon eight of which final
action was taken. All the other prop
ositions were either sent back to COM
mittees or referred to the incoming
executive council which has power to
dispose of questions referred to it. The
great question of trade autonomy is
now in the hands of the special COM
mittee appointed to consider the sub
ject. The personnel of the committee
was named at the morning session and
other documents relating to trade or
industrial autonomy were referred to
it. The committee has already started
work and will make report probably
Friday or Saturday. The members OF
this little body on which rests the re-
sponsibility of solving the intricate
subject are President Gompers, First
Vice President James Duncan, Second
Vice President John Mitchell, John
Mulholland, president of the Interna-
tional Association of Allied Mechanics,
and c. N. Hughes of the San Antonio
(Tex.) Trades Council.
Among the resolutions adopted were
these:
Requesting terra Gotta pressers and
finishers unions to affiliate with the
International Brick. Tile and Terra
Gotta Workers Alliance, or have their
charters revoked by the Federation;
recommending that the Federation
make an effort during the coming year
to organize the school teachers of this
country; authorizing the Federation
to send representatives to national
and international organizations, par
ticularly those of railroad employees;
indorsing the label of the Internation-
al Wood Carvers' Association and in
structing the executive council to use
every effort to secure the passage or
a national law, protecting and legaliz-
ing union labels.
The report of the Executive Council
is a comprehensive review of all mat
ters that have come before the coun-
Gil. The Shaffer- Gompers-M Mitchell
controversy growing out of the recent
steel strike is not mentioned. The re-
port eulogizes the late President Nc
Kinley, and recommends that the Fed
GRAFTON make a direct appropriation to
the Mckinley memorial fund.
The council advocates the passage
by Congress of anti-inJunction and
Chinese exclusion laws. Revision of
the Don't patronize" list is recon-
mended as it is too long and many
firms are out of existence.
A resolution calling for the appoint
ment of more colored men as organ
izers in the South evoked some debate.
A motion was adopted to refer the
matter to the Executive Council for
final action.

Democrats Made No Opposition in
Committee--LOuisia FavOrs 1t
Because of Sugar Interests.
Washington, Dec. 11.-At a meeting
of the Ways and Means Committee
day Chairman Payne was directed
to favorably report to the House the
Philippine tariff bill which the Repub-
lican members of the committee agreed
upon yesterday. The report will be
made Friday and the bill will be con-
sidered in the House next Tuesday,
with vote at p. m. Wednesday, in
stead of Tuesday, as at first planned
Some surprise was occasioned ait
the failure of the minority of the COM
mittee to ask for a division and vote
on the question of reporting the bill.
In the absence of such request no
vote was recorded.
Numerous conferences of Democratic
members We're held prior to the meet
ing of the Ways and Means Commit
tee to-day because of the question
which had arisen as to united oppo-
sition to the Philippine bill drafted
by Republican members. 1t developed
in this connection that the four Louis
lana members now in the city-Repre-
sentatives Robertson. Meyer, Davey
and Ransdell-were favorable to the
bill, and that the two Louisiana menu
bers out of the city, Messrs. Broussard
and Breazale. probably would favor
it. Among their associates the Louisi-
ana members made no concealment of
the fact that the sugar industry of
their state required the measure of
protection against Philippine sugar
which the majority bill gave by ap-
plying the Dingley rates. Under these
circumstances the minority members
reached no united decision as to oppos-
ing the bill, and although there will
be a minority report opposing the
measure on general grounds, the Lou
isiana members will hold themselves
individually free to vote for the bill.
