mittee on resolutions engaged the at
tention of the American Federation
of Labor at Monday mornings SEES.
sion. The committee reported num-
Der of resolutions, and the delegates
Immediately proceeded to consider
them.
These resolutions were adopt
ed: Petitioning congress to amend
the marine laws so that every seaman
shall have the right to quit any mer-
chant vessel on which the service has
become obnoxious to him; also to
prohibit the towing on the oceans of
gigantic RATS.
The committee on labels reported
the following resolutions, which were
adopted by the conventions: That the
federation refuse to recognize labels
gotten up by rival unions of the To-
bacco Workers. international union;
reindorsing the blue label of the To-
bacco Workers union; that the fed
Grafton draw up form of obligation
that will instruct all new members to
demand the union label wherever
they purchase manufactured goods;
iudorsing the union stamp of the
International Union of Journeymen
Horseshocrs and indorsing the label
of the Actors National Protective
union.
A resolution boycotting cigars
made by child labor and machinery
caused long discussion. Many dele
gates opposed the word machinery"
maintaining that the federation
could not successfully oppose the in
PRODUCTION of machinery. They advo-
Gated the organization of operators
of the machines like those who oper-
ate type-setting machines. The resO-
luton with the word machinery"
stricken out was adopted.
Some business of a purely routine
nature was disposed Of and the con-
Vention then adjourned until nine
o'clock Tuesday morning. This was
done to allow the several committees
to give delegates a hearing on reso-
buttons that have been referred to
them for Consideration.
Every one of the IS committees put in
busy afternoon and evening. There
are many delegates here with griev-
ances, and they were fully heard by
the committees. The question of
Jurisdiction in several trades came up
before the committee on law, and the
resolutions committee heard argu-
ments on trade and industrial autou-
omy. The executive council also held
session in the afternoon and dis
posed of some odds and ends of bust
ness still demanding its attention. The
committees sessions are held behind
closed doors, but the decisions in the
matters brought before 1t viii be re-
ported to the convention later in the
week.

LAWSON Their PREl
Standard Oil Men Said to Seek
Copper Kings Ruin.

Boston, Dec. GA crisis has been
reached in the great copper war, and
that the struggle between Thomas W.
Lawson and the men who are opposing
him will be to a finish is now certain.
With his various shares pounded down
to the lowest figures yet recorded Sat
urday, Lawson weathered the storm,
but what his fate will be to-day no one
can predict. The forces fighting Law
son are said to he the Standard Oil in
terests, but whether or not this is so
it is certain that men connected with
the big company are leaders in the
raids on the Lawson stocks. That they
will continue their efforts to bankrupt
him to-day is assured.
Mr.. Lawson himself, the storm cen
ter Of this battle of millions, is conf,
dent as ever. He insists he still holds
mis- original 10000 shares in Amalga-
mated Copper and will continue to
hold them in the face of all attacks.
Much anxiety prevails regarding the
outcome of tO-day's struggle, many
predicting that the noted tinancier.
yacht builder, race horse owner and
copper king is near ruin. Friends OF
Lawson deny this and predict that he
will rout his foes yet and make their
attack on him an expensive affair.
Mr.. Lawson on October 10 gave out
a statement that he held more thai
100000 shares of Amalgamated Copper
stock, on which he had paper losses
Of more than 100000. At that time
the stock was under 90 Taking Mr.
Lawson's own figures, that he still
had all his 100000 shares, he has lost
ION paper" fully $3,5O0,O00 since he
gave his statement out, in addition to
the $3,OOO,OO0 actual money loss and
81, 100000 paper loss" he admitted
then.
Total Decline Is So, 900, 900.
That losses, however, to spectators
in Amalgamated Copper stock upon
margins have been enormous is I'M
doubtedly true. There is S155,000,00O
par value of the stock, and within two
weeks there has been a drop of 90
points, or shrinkage in the market
value of $4,000 Lawson's pet
stock, Trinity, which sold at Al few
months ago, was hammered down to
ten Saturday, he being too busy de-
Tending his Amalgamated holdings to
offer any support to Trinity,
Rumors that Lawson had failed
were industriously circulated on the
exchanges at New York, Chicago and
Boston, but he declares his ability to
carry the fight to the end and win
with money TO spare.
Lawson asserts that the attacks on
him come from Wall street clique
inspired by personal animosity. He
says his building OF the yacht Inde-
pendence as candidate for defender
OF the America cup brought upon him
the enmity of New York Yacht club
members who are powers in finance.

BRITISH WISH EXPRESSED.
London Newspapers want the Duke
of Cornwall aud York To Attend
the Mckinley Funeral.

London, Sept. 16.-The newspapers
here continue to express the hope
that the duke of Cornwall and York
will he able 10 attend the funeral of
President Mckinley; but il seems now
extremely doubtful if il can be ar
ranged, especially since the cere-
monies at the capitol have been fixed
for Tuesday. Government circles
seem 10 think that direct, immediate
action on the part of King Edward Is
the only way to bring about the at
tendance of the duke at Washington.
1T would be a unique opportunity"
the Westminster Gazette says, "of
showing British sympathy with the
United states, owing TO the accidental
fact that the kings son is near, and
il would, we are certain, be appre-
ciated by the American people"

Buffalo, n. Y, Sept. 16.-President
the policy he will follow during his
inCumbency of Office. 1t will be re-
membered that when he took the
oath of Office he stated with much
definiteness: ut shall be my aim to-
continue absolutely unbroken the poll
icy of President Mckinley for the
peace land he emphasized that world,
prosperity and honor of the country"
Sunday the president gathered to-
gether some personal friends in Buff
falo and those members of the cabi-
net who were here, and gave to them
such ideas as he had already formu-
lated for the conduct of affairs and
his own policy. In no sense are they
divergent from what has been un-
derstood as Mr.. McKinley's policy.
This policy as outlined to his friends
at Sundays conference will be for a
more liberal and extensive reciprocity
in the purchase and sale of commodi-
ties, so that the over-production of
this country can be satisfactorily dis
posed of by fair and equitable ar
rangements with foreign countries.
The abolition entirely of commercial
war with other countries and the
adoption of reciprocity treaties.
The abolition Of such tariffs on for
eign goods "a are 10 longer needed
for revenue, il such abolition can bc
had without harm to our industries
and labor.
Direct commercial lines should be
established between the eastern coast
of the United States and the ports in
South American and the Pacific ports
of Mexico, Central American and
South America.
The encouraging of the merchant
marine and the building of ships
which shall carry the American flag
and be owned and controlled by
Americans and American capital.
The building and completion as
soon as possible of the isthman
canal, owned by the government, con-
Meeting our mainland with our for
eign possessions, notably Hawaii and
the Philippines.
The use of conciliatory methods of
arbitration in all disputes with for
eign nations, so as to avoid armed
strife.
The protection of the savings of the
people in banks and in other forms of
investment by the preservation of the
commercial prosperity of the country
and the placing in positions of trust
men of only highest integrity.
