ANCIENT DOCK AT EVERETT.
Piling Found by Dredger Many
Feet Under Water.

Everett, Oct. 20.-The remains OF
what appears to be prehistoric dock
has been unearthed by the dredge Seat
tie, while deepening the anchorage
around the Everett improvement Com
pany's docks. A lot of old piles. some
of them fifteen feet long, were struck
from eighteen to twenty feet under
ground where the dredge was working.
How they got there is a mystery. They
were about forty feet north of the pres
ent dock, at point where there never
has been dock located during historic
times.
The engineer for the old land COM
pany, George Mentandon, laid out all
the water front improvements during
the early days and he has no knowledge
of dock having been built there or
any piles driven for any purpose. Moth
ing is on record to show there was.
To all appearances the piles have been
used in some ancient dock, but by
whom constructed is not known. Old
settlers say that there is a tradition
among the Indians that many years
ago ships from some foreign power
landed here and engaged in trade with
them. 1t is argued from this that
there may have existed trading post
here before historic times and that the
piles discovered embedded in the harbor
are the remains of some ancient land
ing place for ships.

OFF
BIG ANTHRACITE STRIFE FORM
ALLY ENDED.
BY the Unanimous Adoption of a
Resolution Accepting the Terms
President Mitchell Work to Be
Resumed Immediately.

Wilkesbarre. Pa, Oct. 21. - The
strike was settled at ~ o'clock. Presi-
dent Mitchell. after hearing all who
desired to speak, and patiently answer
ing all questions, put the question.
1t carried with no dissenting vote.
The convention opened at 10 O'Clock.
At an early stage of the debate it be-
came apparent that a nights considera-
ton and private discussion had won
over to the affirmative side many of
those who were yesterday opposed to a
surrender. Practically the only ques-
ton at issue is that of demanding as
one of the terms of settlement that all
former employees be restored to their old
positions.
While waiting for the report of the
committee on credentials. the debate
was continued. One delegate asked
President Mitchell if the agreement to
to arbitrate included the independent
operators. Mitchell in reply made a
brief statement in which he said that
his understanding was very clear that
the operators who signed the PROPOSE
ton did SO in behalf of the anthracite
operators.
The committee on resolutions pre-
sented report accepting the PROPOSE
ton for arbitration, and declaring for
the resumption of work on Thurdsay.
motion to adopt the resolution was
about to be nut by the chair, when a
delegate interpssed and opened the dis
cussion afresh. The speakers voice
was almost drowned by cries of "Ques-
ton, Question. With great difficulty
Mitchell quelled the noise and said that
he would not put the question to a vote
until the last man had been heard.
Secretary Wilson then made a
lengthy address in which he urged the
adoption of the resolution.
After number of other speeches the
question was put upon the adoption of
the resolution, and it carried unani-
mously.
Prior to the discussion of the resolu-
ton its purport was fully explained by
Mitchell, and it was translated into the
Lithuanian, Polish and Slavic Ian
guages, who elucidated it fully to the
delegates of those nationalities whose
mastery of English is not yet perfect.
Mitchell announched to the convention
that he had received word from the
president that the arbitration commits
sion will be called to meet as soon as
he receives word that the convention
has adopetd the resolution accepting
the terms of settlement.
With great fervor, after the adoption
of the resolution, the entire convention
arose and sang America. The conven-
tion then adjourned sine die.

NEW LABOR PARTY.
Proposed to Put up a Full Ticket
at Chicago.

Chicago, Oct. 2l.-The new political
labor party which has been incubating
in this city for some time has been
launched at secret meeting of labor
leaders. 1t is proposed to put COM
plete municipal ticket in the field at
the city election next spring. The
party will appeal to voters of the
laboring classes to follow the example
of their brethren of San Francisco.
The platform will declare for municipal
ownership of public utilities, for state
insurance, for legislation by popular
ballot, and for the establishment of Wig
ilance committees to enforce impartial
administration of laws.
AS preliminary to the spring cam
paign it is reported that it will be
recommended to labor voters at the
election next month, that they support
for every office the candidate believed
to be most friendly to their interests,
without regard to political affiliations.
The movement is regarded with some
by politicians who fear
its effect upon the fall election.

SOUFRIERE AGAIN ACTIVE.
More Fireworks From the Noted

Kingston, Oct. 2O.-A terrific erup-
ton of the Soufriere volcano commenced
Tuesday night. During the preceding
day earth tremors, apparently too
slight to be considered important, were
experienced in the central and northern
parts of the island. At 8 O'Clock there
were indications of an eruption.
Rumblng noises were heard. They in
creased when the roaring volcano
belched out its deadly contents. This
eruption was followed by brief lull
Then, from 10 o'clock until 4 in the
morning the upheaval continued. The
outbreak was continued accompanied by
anincessant and confused cannonading.
There were incandescent clouds, and
sparkling matter was elected. After 4
O'Clock the disturbance gradually de-
creased, but the noise of the boiling
cauldron is still'audible in the distance

GIANT BEEF TRUST.
Corporation Including the Prom.
nent Packing Mouses Has
Been Formed.

New York, Oct. 21.-The giant beef
trust, the New Jersey organization
which was strenuously denied by all
concerned, became fact when 1t was
chartered at Trenton. Its name is the
United States Packing Company. Its
capital is nominally placed at 81 ,000,-
900. This will be increased in week
or SO to $50, 900, 900.
The incorportors are dummies, clerks
of the Corporation Trust Company, of
Jersey City. Their names are Horace
d. Gould, F. X. Howard and X. X.
McLaren. The real members are hid
den for the present but are known to
include Swift & Co., Armour Il Co.,
Nelson Morris & Co., and the various
plants controlled by them. Cudahy &
Co., and Schwarzschild & Sulzberger
are said to be members.
John D. Rockefeller is sponsor for
the new trust. J. W. Cudahy is said to
be slated for president. Kuhn, Loeb
4 Co., the great firm of bankers, of
which Jacob Schiff is head, and which
managed the Northern Pacific fight for
Rockefeller, has charge of the organiza-
ton.
By the certficte of incorporation the
new trust is empowered to "buy, sell,
breed and deal in cattle, sheep, poultry,
game, fish and all kinds of livestock.
By another clause of the certificate the
company is authorized to "build. pur-
chase or establish markets or butcher
shops and deal in all kinds of meat pro-
dncts."
The 81 900, 200 capital stock is divid-
ed into $1,000 shares of the par value
of 500, one-half of which is preferred
and the other common stock. The pre-
ferred is bound to a semi.annual divi-
dend of at least $1.OO, but never more
than 6 per cent. Should the concern
fail all stocks participate equally in the
assets.
1t is a significant fact that the trust
was chartered the very day on which
official announcement was made of the
signing of contract with the Union
Pacific for St. Paul trains to 60 tn the
Pacific ocean over the Hartman tracks.
Rockefeller, now in position to ship
the products of his new trust to all
parts of the world without any fights
with railroads, is ready to feed the
world at his own prices. His share in
the shipping trust recently launched
by j. P. Morgan insures easy rates for
his meats to Europe.
