The Mercer game OF blum came to an end
Just before the meeting Of the republican
county committee yesterday afternoon. Dur
ing the past two weeks the Mercerites have
been declaring they would have their own
way about the primary arrangements or
they would cut away from the county com
mittee altogether and hold a little primary
all Of their own. but yesterday they we're
ready to concede the right OF the regular
organization to conduct the primary cleo
ton in the legal way.
The threats Of the Mercerites to put the
name OF their candidate on the Official del
egate ballots. to have only those delega-
lions filled with Tom Blackburn and accom-
panied by cash contributions to the Mer-
Ger committee placed on the oficial bal
lots and TO control the returns from the
polling places came to naught. Before the
county committee met for the purpose OF
completing arrangements for the primaries
and for the printing OF the ballots Mr.. Cur
ley, who had been throwing out all kinds
OF storm clouds, and Mr.. Goss, who at one
time had declared that as chairman OF the
county committee he would not accept the
filing OF congressional delegations from
anybody but Tom Blackburn. forgot their
warlike behavior Of the past fortnight and
decided to get into line with the action
OF the majority OF the county committee.

Mercerites in Minority.

In harmony, therefore. the republican
county committee met at Washington hall
and In half an hour adopted all the plans
relative to the ballots for the coming pri-
mary election that had been agreed upon
at a previous conference of Messrs. Rose
water, Gurley, Goss, Cornish and Breen.
held in the hall before the meeting.
The Mercer forces we're hopelessly in the
minority at the meeting, but every vote
that was taken was unanimous, anyway.
Immediately after roll call Mr.. Cornish pre-
scented to the committee the terms Of the
preliminary agreement, which were;
j. A committee to have charge of the
printing OF the ballots shall be composed
of Messrs. Charles A. Goss, ]. L. Pierce,
n. b. Zimman, Joseph Koutsky and c. r..
Hutton.
2. This committee is instructed TO nut no
names OF congressional candidates on the
ballots, nor advertise any such candidate
In any such way on the ballot; to place the
two Inherent delegations side by side on the
ballot, giving the delegates on the county
ticket the same relative place and position
as that held by the delegates for the con-
grtsslonal candidate favored by that partic-
ular county delegation; TO allow statements
OF, preferences among the different wards
follow the county schedule.
Finally the executive committee reported
that there were no protests received, and It
was unanimously voted to accept the dele
~sStions as hied with Secretary Messick.

NO ACTION TAKEN AS YET.
Attorneys for Operators Consulting
With Their Employers.
Scranton, Pa, Nov. 25.-No definite
action was taken during the day with

zine al me employees. AL
the attorneys of the coal companies
have gone to their respective homes
for the purpose of consulting with the
officers of the concerns they represent
and no action will be taken until they
return with power to arrange for a
settlement.
Clarence A. Darrow of Chicago,
leading counsel of the Mine Workers.
who was in New York Sunday, has re-
turned here. He said he visited New
York for the purpose of seeing friends
and that the proposed strike settle
ment negotiations were not mentioned
while he was there. Mr.. Darrow had
a conference with Mr.. Mitchell during
the day and also had a talk with Ira
H. Burns, one of the attorneys for the
independent operators. No action of
any kind was decided upon at either
conference.
Much interest is manifested in the
position of the Independent operators,
a committee from which will hold a
conference with the presidents of the
coal roads in New York in day or
two. They want to know what conces-
sion will be made to them by the coal
carrying roads before they consent to
an increase in wages.

NUMEROUS CLAIMS FILED.
Steamship Companies Would Receive
Manifest Duties.

New York, Nov. 24.-Suit has been
brought in the United States circuit
court by steamship line plying be-
tween this port and Cuba to recover
from the United States the amount
paid as tax on outward manifests
under the war revenue law of 1898.
This law provided for stamp tax
of from 81 to SIS on each manifest for
customhouse entry or clearance of the
cargo, steamer or vessel for foreign
port, the tax varying according to the
tonnage of the vessel and the tax thus
imposed was paid by all vessels clear
ing from the United States for foreign
countries for the three years that the
war revenue act was in force.
While suit is only brought in the
name of one company it is understood
that the various other steamship
lines running between this country
and foreign ports are also interested,
numerous claims having been filed at
Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Nor
folk, Newport News, Charleston, Pen
sacola, Mobile, New Orleans, Galveston
and San Francisco.

Gray Approves Suggestion.

Judge Gray, as chairman of the COM
mission, in reply, said that he heard
with much satisfaction the suggestion
of Mr.. Darrow and he felt the adjourn
ment would be acceptable to his col
leagues. In the meantime he hoped
both sides would confer regarding the
submission of facts and figures and
hoped that they might be able to con-
slider other matters satisfactorily.
Both sides had made their submission
of their cases, he said, and the COM
mission cannot abrogate it's duty to
make final award unless the submits
sions are withdrawn.
Ira H Burns of Scranton, one of the
attorneys for the Independent oper-
ators, then had short discussion with
Judge Gray regarding the position of
the independent operators. He thought
the individual concerns should have
been consulted in the matter.
Judge Gray interrupted to say that
the commission was not party to
anything that had been done by the
large operators and the miners. All
the commissioners had done had been
done in open session.
Mr.. Burns read a statement as show
ing the position of the Independent OPP
orators at this time. Under prevailing
conditions the independent operators
declare they cannot concede an ad-
vance of wages and they desire the op-
portunity of presenting facts and fig
ures which will show, they declare,
that the general average of earnings
of the miners working for the indie
pendent operators is over $500 year
and in many instances from $1,000 to
$1,000 per year.

Fifteen Hundred Men out.

New York, Nov. 25.--A lockout has
been declared by the Builders and Con
tractors association of New Rochelle,
which forced all the building trades
workmen in suburbs north of New
York, from Mount Vernon, N. Y, to the
Connecticut line, to quit work. The
number OF men out is about 1,500. The
trouble grew out of recent strike
caused by q disagreement between
plumbers and their employees.

CHICAGO PROFESSORS OPINION
Workman Can Support Family and
Save Money on $500 Year.

Chicago, Nov. 25.-"That no man has
a right to bring into the world more
children than he can support" and
"that no parents, however wealthy,
have right to bring children into the
world and so train them that by any
possibility they may become dependent
on others" were two propositions en-
phasized by Professor J. Scott Clark
of Northwestern university in an adj
dress at the First Congregational
church, Evanston.
The chief burden of Professor
Clark's address was the possibility of
all men and women becoming indie
pendent. Professor Clark declared
that on a salary of $500 year an I'M
skilled American workman could keep
family in comfort and save money.
He added that this was not only a pos
sibility, but the duty of every work
man.

Washington, Nov. 25.-Senator
Spooner says he thinks the Republic
ans of Wisconsin would be pleased to
have tariff commission created which
would aid congress in the work of re-
vision.
He says the people of his state would
be better satisfied with this than to
60 rushing pell NELL at the tariff laws

He is against tariff revision in this

Havana, Nov. 25.-Police Captain
Maso and two officers were wounded
and two strikers were killed during a
demonstration in front of the palace.
In addition two policemen and several
strikers were wounded.
The strike here became general dur
ing the day. The conductors and mo-
tormen continued running their cars
until 10 o'clock when Superintendent
Greenwood ordered a suspension of
traffic. He hadasked the civil governor
for protection but the authorities were
unable to protect the cars. Several of
them were wrecked and some motor
men and conductors were injured.
The men were willing to remain at
work, but the officers of the COM
pany, in order to protect the property,
deemed 1t wise to suspend the service.
The situation is grave. The police
will not make arrests owing to the
pronounced sympathy Of the mayor
and city officials with the strikers. A
mob Of strikers drove the employees of
the Western railway from trains dur
ing the morning. No bread or meat is
on. sale and continuance of the
strike will cause much suffering to the
poor.

Recognition of the Union the Prin

Scranton, Pa, Nov. 24.-The propo
sition to have the anthracite mine
workers and their employers try to
come to some agreement without the
direct aid of the arbitration commits
sion, which became publicly known
Friday, remains in the same indefinite
form as when the development first
became known. Both sides waited for
the commission to adjourn and as such
action was taken by the commission
ers Saturday it is probable that con-
ferences will be held in a day or two.
Where these meetings will be held
has not yet been decided upon, nor is
it known who on each side will con-
duct the negotiations.
While most of those interested ex-
press the belief that the two parties
will be able to agree there are some
who can see no good in the new move.
It seems almost certain that the min
ersNwill stand out strongly for con-
tract with the United Mine Workers of
America, instead of yearly contracts
and conferences between each COM
pany and the men it directly employs,
as proposed by the operators. On two
of the other demands in
wages and a shorter workday-a COM
promise, it is thought, can readily be
made.
The commission adjourned until
Dec. and most of the commissioners
and out-of-town attorneys Immediately
left for their homes.
The commission was in session only
twenty minutes. Immediately on con-
vening at 10 o'clock c. s. Darrow,
counsel for the miners, rose and sug-
gested that the commission adjourn ell
Their until the LIST or Sd day Of December.
He gave as his reason the inability OF
the miners to present additional facts
and figures at this time and said If the

. Shaw and Roosevelt Incident.

tT1OTOu, -. Ds HuTOHIle.J -.
Governor Shaw's appointment as
secretary of the treasury by President
Roosevelt reminds the writer OF a little
incident that occurred al Huron during
the campaign Of 1900, when President
Roosevelt, Governor Shaw and Senator
Nelson visited Huron. All three gen
tlemen were on the platform; President
Roosevelt and Senator Nelson had adj
dressed the thousands of voters as
sembled to greet the candidate for vice
president, when Governor Shaw was
introduced and at once commanded the
attention of his hearers. He spoke en-
tfrely upon the subject of currency.
and in the course OF his remarks paid
a very high tribute to Grover Cleveland.
The writer turned to Mr.. Roosevelt,
saying: "Mr. Shaw Is very eulogistic
of the late democratic president"
Yes" replied Roosevelt, and his eyes
flashed as he concluded. TOO much
so. I don't agree with Governor Shaw.
Cleveland is deserving Of some credit,
estimate of Cleveland"
We shall never forget the manner in
which President Roosevelt said this.
His whole nature seemed to revolt
against tho position taken by Governor
Shaw, and when Shaw closed his able
speech Mr.. Roosevelt began discussing
with him his remarks about Cleveland,
but the argument was cut short by the
press Of the people to shake President
Roosevelt's hand, and the now presi-
dent and secretary of the treasury were
soon forgetful of their differences.

drinks the liquor which makes him
drunk, he takes the thing which des-
troys him for the moment, which is no.
