Contend was the extreme outsider.

CUBS BID FOR COLLINS.
Selee Said to Be Negotiating for the
Boston Player.

Boston, Mass, July 81. - Manager
Frank Selee is after Jimmy Collins, the
manager and third baseman of the Bos-
ton American league team. and recoE-
nized as probably the greatest player in
that position in the country, TO play
with the Chicago National league team
for next season.
Selee called on Collins and made him
a proposition. but nothing that was said
at the meeting has been given out.
Collins played under Selee for years
and each holds the other in high esteem
and the desire to establish themselves
in the same position in Chicago that
they occupied in Boston for many years
may bring about the signing of the
leader of the American league team here
by Selee.
The attempt on the part of the club
managers to secure Collins may be a
part of the scheme of the National
league to wreck the young league Sc
lee is saying very little these days, but
IT is more than likely that this raid was
planned by him alone and on his own
responsibility.

JEFF TO FIGHT coRBETT.
Delaney's Calling OFF the Match Means
for the Present.

New York, July 31.-The Jefrries- Corbett
fight will take place despite Billy De-
laney's announcement to the contrary
An intimate friend of Delaney said today
that the action of Delaney in calling on
the proposed Jeffries-Corbett fight was
caused by the present talk of the Jeffries-
Fitzsimmons contest being a fake. Della
ney's friend says that Jeffries' aStute
manager will wait until all the gossip in
connection with Friday nights fight sub
sides, and then he will make the formal
announcement of Jeffries acceptance Of
Corbett's challenge.
Meanwhile Jeffries will continue light
training, as it is known that Delaney
was not at all satisfied with the big fell
lows condition when he stepped into the
ring with Fitzsimmons- This alone goes
to show that Jeffries has a match on
hand. That Corbett will be his next OPP
ponent goes without saying, as Jenries
realizes that there will be more money in
a fight with the ex-heavy weight cham
pion than there would be in a fight with
Sharkey, whom he has defeated twice.
Reports from New York show that Cor
bett is unconcerned over Delaney's an
nouncement, as he has made arrange
ments to go into training in few weeks

INDUSTRIAL WAR.


Pittsburg, July 31.-The miners of the
three southwestern districts No. II, II
and Is, embracing the states of Mis-
souri,, Arkansas, Kansas and the In
dian Territory, and which make up joint
scale district No. 5, have passed de-
claration OF Industrial war against the
non-union companies of the three dis
tricts. The war is to be on a grand
of the three districts, 10000 strong, as
sisted financially by the miners of the
entire union and the national organiza-
ton. The joint action against the nom
union operators is deferred, however,
until next year, on account of the pres
ent strike in the anthracite field. The
convention took this stand in prefer
ence to opening up joint campaign at
once. 1t was deemed more advisable
to wait until eastern aid could be re-
ceived before opening hard struggle.
1t is hoped that the western and central
companies will not refuse to treat with
the joint conference. If they persist, a
general warfare will be waged against
the two companies and the miners of all
three western districts and OF the en-
tire nation will concentrate their atten-
ton to the fight on the companies. The
western miners are literally aiding the
east In the present struggle, and the
east is assuring the west of their will
lingness to respond as literally in re-
turn next year. The campaign will be
transferred from the anthracite district

against the big Four" will be waged
to a finish, providing of course, the COM
panies persist in their present attitude
toward the organization.
This, in brief, is what the miners of
Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas and Indian
Territory have determined upon. This
is what the committee recommended
and their recommendations were adopt
ed after an all days discussion. The
resolutions adopted are as follows:
Resolved, By the mine workers of
districts Nos. IA, q and Is, in conven-
ton assembled:
''First-That each district is hereby
instructed to make the best scale and
agreement possible for the scale year
commencing September /, 1902.
'sSecond-That no district a party to
this contract shall enter into any agree
ment that will deprive them from TAX
ing part in an interstate joint confer
ence in 1903
''Third-That the executive boards of
the three districts are hereby instructed
to call joint interstate conference said
conference to be held in the city of
Pittsburg, Kan. on the second Monday
in July, 1903
''Fourth-That the executive boards
of che three districts are hereby in
structed to work in harmony for the
purpose of taking concerted action
the scale, and to present the demands
of the three districts to the non union
operators on the same day. and in case
the operators refuse to sign the agree
ment, or any of them, the executive
boards are hereby authorized and in
structed to wage Industrial warfare on
said operator or operators"

clock at Balmoral Castle is related in a
recently published book by Scottish au-
thor: THE hands on its face are bare, and
sometimes during the winter the snow has
been known to stop them There was a
snow storm on the day Queen Victoria
died. When the kirk bell toiled and the
order was given to hoist the flag haif-mast
high the men paused to look at the
clock. Its snow-laden hands were stand

passed away. 1t is an old Scottish custom
to stop the clock when the head of a

do so. And so it was left until after the
