Mrs. Nation apparently was much
disappointed at the failure OF local

that she had decided not to damage
the saloons here because she was
alone. She refused to eat breakfast
because she feared being poisoned and
instead talked temperance TO a crowd
in front of the hotel.

HOSTING ENGINEERS
REFUSED RECOGNITION.
UNITED MINE WORKERS NATIONAL
CONVENTION TURNS DOWN A
CnNuE,
OFFERED FOR RATIFICATION
BELIEVED THIS ACTION SOUNDS THE
DEATH KNELL OF THE ORGANI-
ZATION.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, January 25.-
The delegates to the national conven-
ton of the United Mine Workers of
America declined to-day to enter into
an agreement with the National
Brotherhood of Hosting Engineers and
the action may precipitate a fight
Chief Mack Taylor, VI the engineers
organization, presented contract for
the consideration of the delegates. He
pointed out that one of the principal
objects of the organization he repre-
sented is to cultivate higher degree
of proficiency among the engineers and
thus diminish the danger to the lives
of the men who are daily lowered into
and hoisted out of the mines.
President Mitchell resigned the chair
to Vice President Lewis and took a
seat among the delegates in order to
be heard on his objections to the con-
tract. He said he objected to it be-
cause it places the power in the hands
of less than one-third of the men en-
ployed in the mines to create labor dis
turbances. He said there was no pro-
lection to the miners and that there
is no guaranty that they will be al
lowed to control the situation. w. D..
Ryan, secretary off the illinois dis
trin ~
the indiana bituminous district, and w
]. Lackey, an Indiana delegate, were
among the DIRECTORS to the contract.
When it was put to vote not more
than fifteen delegates cast their votes
in favor of the contract.
Asked what action the Brotherhood
of Engineers would take in the matter,
Secretary Jenkins, of the engineers,
said he supposed nothing is left but
to fight for recognition. The organi-
cation has about 300 members in In
diana, or 95 per cent of the hosting
| engineers employed in the mines OF
the state. There are six hundred mem
bers in Illinois being every member
Of the craft in that state. In Ohio,
the membership is $50 or about so per
cent, while in Pennsylvania, a small
percentage of the engineers are organ
lied and the members number about
100. Iowa has $50 members and there
are few in Michigan.
The action of the convention in all
probability sounds the death knell of
the National Brotherhood of Hosting
Engineers, as it is not believed the
union is strong enough to withstand
the strong opposition developed at the
convention.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, January %.
The Senate to-day passed the bills

county court and put it in the hands
of the city council
The Pan-American Exposition an
preparation bill was laid on the table
in the Senate, and a similar bill was
absolutely killed IN the House by
vote of forty to ten. The trouble
seems to be that with the great raid
on the treasury that las already been
organized the bosses see nat there is
sure to be a deficit in the treasury, and
they don't want to make it any larger
than they must. Then also there is
some disposition to punish Atkinson's
presumption for borrowing that ten
thousand dollars without warrant of
law. Some of the members think that
money is being squandered by the
members of the commission who are
here to lobby for the bill, and they re-
sent 1t. Another view taken of the
matter is that the exhibit would be es-
Pecially to advertise the coal of the
state, and that as the coal lands be-
long largely to wealthy corporations.

expenses OF the advertisement.
