driver of the coach, sustained fatal frac-
ture of the skull.
a he president was able to resume his
journey to Lenox, but sent word ahead
there should be no cheering.
The accident happened at point about
a mile and half from this city, near the
Pittsfeld country clubhouse. The presi-
dent was enjoying coae..ng trip from
Dalton, Governor Cranes home, where he
had spent the night, to Lenox, distance
of 90 miles, over Berkshire hills. The car

Crane and Secretary Cortelyou were piled
up in heap when the car and vehicle col
lided.

An awe-stricken crowd witnessed the
accident and rushed to the presidents car
rage, with no expectation that he would
be found alive. The president was cut on
the right side, chin, and his face is badly
swollen.

with other members of the party, went to
the Country club, where their wounds were
dressed. In short time they proceeded
to the Curtis hotel, in Lenox, arriving
there at II o'clock. The president re-
tanned his usual composure, although he
was solicitous for the rest OF those in the
carriage.
Extreme excitement prevailed here when
the news came and rumors flew about that
the president had been killed. After re-
naming at the scene OF the accident foI
an hour or more, the president determined
to continue his journey to Stockbridge
After brief stop at Lenox he was driven
to the train.

Livingston, Sept S,-Soveniy- five men
employed in the Northern Pacific machine
shop walked out at 10 o'clock this morn
ing. The union OF which they are mem
bers control the employees Of the road from
Mandan N. d.. to Missona and il is

fected today general strike. farreaehing

The trouble arose over the discharge of
]. l.. Hyatt a machinst who serves as
chairman OF the shop committee Of the
local union. Hyatt was let ont yesterday
afternoon by Foreman Wheatlcy. The
men this morning demanded his rcinstate-
ment The officials refused to comply.
The union then served notice Oh Fore
man Wheatiey that unless Hyatt was
given back his old place by 10 o'clock,
they would walk out No answer was
made to this communication and promptly
as the big clock in the shop struck the
hour, IS men laid down their tools took
their hats aud coats and filed soemnly
out.
Both Sides OF the Story.
Hyatt is said To have been warned sev-
eral times by Foreman Wheatlcy, who de
clares that the man was a confirmed
loafer, and used his influence in the union
TO boost his own game. Wheatley declares
that Hyatt would refuse to obey orders
and when threatened, would fall back upon
his position as chairman Of the shop com
miitee which he relied upon to hold his
job. The unionists declare. on the con
irary, that il was zeal for their cause
which aroused the ire of Wheatley and
caused Hyatt to be let out.
Up to a late hour no further communi-
cation from the union has been received.
The officials Of the road here are hourly
expecting 10 hear that men from Mandan
to Missonla have been ordered to strike,
but no such word has reached Livingston
yet. II is thought that the strikers will
make known their intentions early tomor-
roy. They are holding meeting behind
closed doors this afternoon in their hall
in Livingston.

Notwithstanding the fact that the at
mosphere in the Broadway theater was as
cold today as that of an ice-paeked corpse,
the sessions of the International Mining
congress, which are being held in the build
ing were warm enough to suit almost
any one save Tenth ward democratic
politician in convention assembled. In
addition to the chilly air, the place was as
dark as an inside room In tbird-class
lodging house, there not being even one
little electric light TO impress upon the
delegates the fact that all in this world Is
not bleak, cold and dark.
When L. K. Buckley, chairman OF the
committee on resolutions, made his re-
port on the disposition OF the resolution
of {. L. Dignowity of Texas, asking the
mining congress TO indorse the mining bill
of Senator kearns of Utah, which was in
troduced in the congress OF the United
States on the 18th OF last March and
is now pending before the congressional
body, there was hot time, and II con-
tinued to grow warmer with the advance
of the day.
The committee on resolutions decided
to make some amendments TO the resolu-
,isn, but in the main it was adopted and
placed before the congress for approval or
disapproval.
Then came the storm, the rumbling elc-
ment breaking out in I6 distinct spots
simultaneously and throwing in all direc-

The Bone OF Contention.
The bill provides for a change in the
mining laws in such a way that the locator

a patch OF ground 6ooxI,5oo feet, can
locate 1900 feet sqrare, and cannot take
up more than one claim on one ledge.

Loading Cannon with Corn.

Congressman Joe" Cannon. of ILL.,
nois, is a man OF strong likes and dis
likes, and never does anything by
halves. In the list of his likings, so
far as culinary matters are concerned
his fondness for green corn takes f1rs-
rank, and on this score he tells good
story at his own expense. After a
long sojourn in Washington he re-
turned home and started out to look
after his political fences in his dis
trict At small village hotel, where
he stopped for dinner, scanty plate
of fine roasting ears was placed before
him as a side dish. Immediately he
abandoned the main bill-of-fare and
applied himself exclusively to the
green corn. When the plate was de-
pleted he called for more roasting ears
and continued his feast until he had
made his entire meal from the staple
product Of the Illinois prairies. TIL
hotelkeeper noticed the array Of cobs
stacked upon the plate Of the tall poll
tician, whose identity was unknown to
him, and said: Say. stranger, what
in thunder do you want to board at a
hotel for? The place for you to put up
at is a livery stable. Don't you know
green fodder is dunn sight cheaper In
Z barn than in house?" During the
remainder Of the campaign Congress
man Cannon retailed this story to his
constituents-and turned it to good
account among the corn growers.-Sat-
