TIFF OVER ARBITRATION.
Heated Discussion at the Trades I'm
ion Congress.

London, Sept. 5.-At the latest SEES
sion of the trades union congress
there was Il very heated discussion OF
a compulsory arbitration resolution in
PRODUCED by the Dock. Wharf and Riv-
erside union, which was as follows:
In view of the colossal growth Of trusts
and combines Of speculative capitalists
ana consequent cOncentraton Of capital
ana monopoly OF industry this congress
foresees the grave danger to the nation
ana the toilers Of dislocation Of trade,
stoppage Of work and distress Of wage
earners. To avert such a calamity this
congress calls upon the legislature to pass
an act creating a supreme court of arbi-
tration. the court to be presided over by
q lord justice and to be constituted by
an equal number Of workmen's and en-
ployers' representatives, who shall take
evidence from the parties aggrieved OF
their representatives, legal experts to be
IN all cases debarred from acting as rep
reSentatlVeS. the power of the court tC
be compulsory, Cancellation courts fol-
the various industrious centers to be
formed to act In conjunction with the su,
preme court and to be termed district
courts. In all cases workmen's repre-.
sentatives to be selected by trade unions
as commissioners of members of the su.
preme court for the effective dealing with
disputes. commissioners to be constituted
for the great staple trades-viz. mining.
textile. transport engineering and agri-
culture, with a crown judge over each.
Failing the courts settling disputes, cases
to be submitted to the supreme court.
only unions regist cred under the trades
union act and firms covered by registrn-
ton under an act identical with the
trade union act to be eligible for consid-
GRAFTON of courts or supreme court of ar
bitration. We therefore instruct the par
liamentary committee to draft bill for
the purposes aforesaid.
Many of the delegates opposed the
resolution on the ground that under
such Il system the trade unions would
not only lose many Of the advantages
they had wrung from the employers
but would die of hamilton. since tn,
need for their survival would no longer
exist. The resolution eventually was
rejected by 9Gl 900 to 100000 repre-
scented votes

FORTS ATTACKED.
Mimic Warfare RACES In Sound and
OE Cn.tyhunk.

=
Fort Trumbull. New London. Conn.
Sept. 4.Early in the morning the
War>hrS made their third attack on
the forts OF the New London district.
especially Fort Wright 1t is said to
have been the most effective ~ we'll rs
most spectacular move that has taken
place SINCE the maneuvers began. The
enclny's fleet WAS composed OF the bat
tleslps KcarSarge, Alabama, Massa
chusettS and lndiana.
The first dispatches following the en-
ga=enent off Fort Wright was re
criyed 10y Major General Macarthur
as follows:
"l'ire Commander Fort Ii. q Wright
reports first ship. Kenrsar4e. put out

SaclllSetts, put out OF action at J:3O
third ship, Alabama. put out of action

ward repeatedly fired upon by all The
guns at short range. 5000 to 1900
yards, ana could have been declared
out Of action several times over In
diana also put out Of action at G:37 by
fire from Fort Miche DAVIS,
Commanding District"
The result of this conflict Will not be
known until after the umpires report.
ana perhaps it will be the occasion on
much discussion on the part of the
board Of arbitration. 1t was a most
magnificent attack and an able defense
from the strate@iSts' standpoint.

THE MARTINIQUE HORROR.
Details of Latest Catastrophe on
That Island.

| Castries, Island of st. Lucia, British
| west indies Sept. 1.-THE zone of de-
struction of Saturday nights eruption
or Mont Pelee, island Of Martinique,
paralleled that which destroyed the
town Of st. Pierre in May last, but 1t
| spread some FIVE miles more eastward.
The projection of destructive matter
southwark from Mont Pelee was al
most identical with that Of last May.
The area embraced Morne Rouge, the
southern spur of Mont Pelee, on which
beautiful hill was the Sanitarium of
st. Pierre, dividing the CapOte and
Champs DOre valleys on the east and
AJoupa Bouillon and Marie Refine on
the west, the market gardens and cat
tie farms which supplied st. Pierre.
The Inhabitants We're removed from
this area and also from the villages Of
Lorrain and Basse Pointe, at the base
OF Mont Pelee, after the May catastro-
phe. but they were sent back by the
government last week.
The gendarmerie of Martinique Off
cially reports that 1850 persons were
killed and that 100 were injured by the
latest showers Of fiery hail.
Warshps and steamers are taking
the inhabitants from the coast vii
lagos, where people from inland places
have also gathered for safety.
Survivors who have reached Fort de
France describe the eruption as being
the most violent yet experienced. The
detonations were heard at the island Of
st. kits.
The st. Vincent volcano. the Sou
frfere, was in eruption simultaneously.
Awful detonations were heard along
the southern islands to Trinidad. At
st. Lucia, forty miles from either vol
cano. no tremors were felt, and no
detonations were heard, though the
eruptions were distinctly visible from
here.

thing for publication. He said that
some time in the near future he might
reply to the Bapr statement MI.
Mitchell denied Il report that he had
received a communication from J. Pier
pOnt Morgan asking him to state the
best terms upon which he would settle
the strike.
1t is reported from Harrisburg that
Governor Stone will now take action
and may call special session of the
legislature to consider the strike.
Although Major Genrhart did not
send any part of the troops out during
the morning, the nOnunon men were
not molested while OH their way to
work. 1t is claimed that about the
on the preceding day. The Lehigh
Valley Coal company claims to be ship
ping 600 toms of coal :; day from the
No. T. collpry and 25o tons Il day from
the no. I colliery The greater part of
the coal is procured by "jiGgilg' culm
What Bner snid.
In his statement following the inter
view with Senators Quay and Penrose,
Mr.. Baer said:
"The coal operators say that they
cannot mine coal because the miners
make demands which render it impos
sible to mine coal protitably and that
the state has enacted laws prohibiting
the employment OF men in the mines
unless they have worked two years in
anthracite mines, and therefore they
cannot for the time being miile coal,
How, then. under these circum stances
can there he any violation o. public
duty? If we yield to the eXtravagant
demands of the miners, we will lose
money. II we attempt to increase tine
price of coal, we will destroy the III
austry depending upon anthracite fuel.
II we increase the price on the dolnr>-
barons, oppressors of the poor, moHop-
olists and enemies Of mankind.
You cannot arbitrate the right to
protect your property and your work
men from the mob rule Of labor or
carnations who boldly proclaim pur
pose W OtSllOy property oAAN' NA'"~" ~
to make their proclamation effective by
killing and injuring their fellow work
men who refuse to join in their law
lessness. When John Mitchell ordered
the engineers, firemen and pumpmen
to desert their posts, he knew that I'M
less the operators could supply their
places the mines would be destroyed.
and with their destruction 100000 men,
with their wives and children de-
pendent upon their labor, would be de-
prived of work for long time.
THE operators were compelled to
employ police at their own expense to
guard the new men employed to man
the pumps to save their mines. The
guards and the law authorizing them
are denounced. ana when private ctti-
nous like Bnddall are murdered the
state authorities are denounced TOR
,.iiug troops to preserve the peace.
ro'lv that gallant soldier, General
3a,,i9. who fought with such distinc-
ism in our civil war, and than whom
aa MISTER man lives, Is bitterly ma
'i,ne,l for projecting the property and
lives of Pennsylvania citizens. Can
such questions be arbitrated?"
