a A meeting has been called for early
next week to effect an organization Of
hack drivers and teamsters. Anyone
owning less than five rigs is eligible TO
membership. In the organization no
radical change of prevailing prices is

C6ssiOns from the city council and
from the railroad companies calculated

It is suggested that Mr.. Dickinson

the matter to a speedy conclusion, IN

UP A MINING PLANT

Joplin. Mo, Nov. 13--In cave-in at
Oronogo near here today the entire
plant of the Aurora Mining company.

district. was swallowed up. No lives
were lost. The plant comprised a 100
tor mill. office building and engine
house. all of which were engulfed, to-
gether with six gravel cars and an i'm
mense failing pile.
On entering che ground short time
before the cave-in occurred, workmen
heard the timbers cracking and sig
nailed to be drawn up. The last man
had reached the surface only a few
minutes when the umbers collapsed,
the earth yielded and with crash the
whole plant sank into the abyss
Further eaving is feared and work in

WAR DEPARTMENT PREPARED
Has Been Expecting Writ of Habeas
Corpus For Aguinaldo.

Washington, Nov. 13.-While the war
department has not been advised of
the reported step TO secure the release
of Aguinaldo from captivity through
writ of habeas corpus. they were pre-
pared for a move in that direction. A
few weeks ago the first application Of
this kind was made in the case of
military prisoner, and as there were
some indication of a disposition on the
part of the Philippine commission to
uphold the right of habeas corpus in
that case, the department was obliged
to cable some instructions both to the
commission and to General Chaffee, the
result Of which was d practical denial
of the writ.
The war department officials have
/ deprecated the making Of an issue Of
/ this important point, pending the de-
cisiOn of the supreme court in the
fourteen diamond rings case" involv-
/ ing the question as to whether the con-
/ stitutiOn follows the flag. Up to this
/ time there has been no real test Of the
right of appeal from the Philippine
courts to the federal courts here, nor
/ of the right of habeas corpus proceed
/ ings.
AS far as Aguinaldo is concerned, it
/ is said that his captivity is only nomi-

ROOSEVELT WILL NOT
FAVOR TARIFF REVISION

St. Paul Mimi, Nov. 13.-S. O.
Haynes. publisher Of a commercial
newspaper at New York, speaking at a
dinner given by the Northwestern Man
ufacturers' association tonight said
that President Roosevelt had given him
positive assurance that the message to
congress would contain no reference 10
revision of the tariff. The president
had said that this omission would be
made in the interest of conservatism.
The president said, however, in the
interview that he favored placing the
tariff on q strict business basis, keep
ing it apart from political manipula-
ton.
Mr.. Haynes felt assured that an
other and more determined effort would
be made at the coming session to Sc
cure the appointment of a tariff COM
mission. Leading senators and con-
gressmen had expressed to him de-
/ sire to bring about a revision that
would meet the requirements, impose
no hardship on present business inter
ests. and furnish a way 10 make
changes without the prospect OF en-
dangering the present commercial
prosperity of the country.

n RGANIZED labor in Utah is about
I to show its strength. Beginning
last Monday, what is perhaps the
most systematic canvas ever made in
Salt Lake City to swell the ranks Of
organized labor, was instituted Il
viii not terminate until the objects and
benefits Of organization and co-opera-
ton have been placed before most of
the wage-earners Of the city and they
have been given an opportunity to ac-
cept or reject 1t.
Back of this activity is a determina-
ton on the part Of the local labor
leaders to begin a new campaign il,
the interests OF the workers and wage
earners. A peaceful campaign to Sc
cure numerous rights and benefits
through legislation is in cOntempla-
ton In order to be in a position 10
demand this legislation at the hands
of representatives in the city council
the legislature and the national legis-
lative bodies at Washington, the ranks
of organized wOTlImen are to be in
creased by bringing into active CO.
operation and fellowship the hundreds
q unskilled workers who have hitherto
been overlooked by the organizer. Thus
far success beyond the most sangUine
/ expectation has been experienced.
Special Organizer Appointed.
The movement is the outgrowth of a
recent meeting Of the Utah Federation
| of Labor. Secretary Daniel Elton of
/ that body, who is also a leader in and
| treasurer Of Cigarmakers' Union No.
| 224, was authorized to give up his
work at the bench and devote his time
/ to special duties as an organizer at the
| expense of the state body. At the
same time the national body was con-
/ suited The local situation and the
| scope of the movement were explained
] and an appeal was made for funds TO
prosecute the work of making Salt
/ Lake City one of the strong citadels of
! the American Federation Of Labor. 1t
was pointed out that financial support
/ would be more practical than sending
on national organizers. as a resident
1 of the city, favorably known to the
workmen, could accomplish better re-
suits than would be possible with
| strangers.
A letter has been received from Pres
ident Gompers promising immediate
attention and giving encouragement to
| the state body. The great national
leader wrote that the project would be
laid before the national executive coTI1e
mittee for action. While Mr.. Gompers
was unable to sive any forecast as TO
the decision that viii follow, the local
labor leaders are confident that they
will be given generous assistance In
any event, there is money in the treas
ury to prosecute the work TO a large
extent. Instead of sending a delegate
to the national convention next month
the money will be used for this pur-
pose.
New Unions Organizing.
As a result of the work that has al
ready been accomplished several new
unions are ready to bud into life and

kind in the country-is an assured fact
