Saturday. has extended unti1 now there
are 10000 men idle In this city.
OF these. 1900 to 5000 We're employed
by manufacturing concerns which have
been compelled to shut down be-
cause of difficulty of handling freight.
The various lines of industry directly
reached by the strike included freight
handlers, team drivers, wool handlers,
longshoremcn and railway swilchmcn.
If the threats of the strike leaders are
borne out this day viii see the movement
extended to the building trades unions
and TO unions connected with the foreign
steamship traffic.
The business men of the city find
themselves staggered by the strike,
Many conferences have been held, the
influence of the civic federation has been
Invoked and the state board OF nth.tra-
ton has tried To find a ground for agree
| ment between the parties at war but ap-
| parently there is little confidence th1t
| the desired result viii he reached by
| these means.
Outgoing Freight All Right.
The New York, New Haven ~ Hart
ford road and the Boston a. Albany sys-
TEN OF the New York Central have foreea

There is no trouble over the movement
OF outgoing freight, but incoming freight
has accumulated In formidable quaint
ties.
The Boston a. Maine road has not vet
lost It's regular force OF freight han i.nrq

FEARS AMERICAN ENTHUSIASTS
Countess Won Waldersee Afraid to
Bring the Count Over.
(By Associated Press.)

(By ASSOclated PfeSS.)
Berlin, March 12.-Count Won Walder-
see has postponed his journey to the
United States for year.
An amusing story Is going about to the
effect that Countess Won Waldersee
reading the accounts of what happened
to Prince Henry and the almost super
human efforts he was called upon to
make during his visit, has become much
alarmed lest anything like 1t should fall
to her husbands share, SO the story
goes.
Countess Won Waldersee, who is
anxious about her husbands health, re-
solved that the American trip about
which she was enthusiastic recently, be
deferred until the American pro-German
enthusiasts have had time to cool.

CONVENTION NOTES.

Held's band, which accompanied the
Salt Lake delegation 10 Ogden. visited
the Reed lobby and serenaded Senators
Beveridge OF Indiana and Clark Of
Wyoming At the conclusion of the
programme Senator Beverage was in
troduced by State Senator George n.
Lawrence He paid a very pretty COM
pliment 10 the band, saying he had
travelled over a considerable portion OF
the world, but he had rarely heard a
better musical organization. Every
bar is a symphony and every note an
inspiration" he concluded, gracefully.
Then Senator Clark appeared in re
Spouse to continued calls. He also
complimented the band very hand
somely. and expressed his pleasure at
the privilege of greeting his Utah
neighbors. Three cheers and a tiger
were given by the crowd for the Wis
itors and three more cheers and a tiger
at the suggestion of Senator Arthur
Brown. were given for Senator Clark.
Senator Arthur Brown didn't break
loose but once, and then he soon SIM
mered down. One of the Brown con-
tingent said: We've got a niger sit
ting on Browns safety valve"
John D. Murphy was busy all after
noon telling a story. He said that aft
er he finished his speech one OF the
COW county delegates remarked: Say.
that fellow Beverage made US a great
speech, didn't hep" According to Muir
ply. the delegate mistook him for Bev
eridge. This is a real joke.
While D. N. Straup of Salt Lake was
making his speech nominating Judge
McCarty for justice of the supreme
court, a child in the arms of A man in
the first balcony cried, plaintively, 'Oh,
mamma" The convention smiled audi
bly, and w. p. O'Meara was moved to
say: Yes. mamma is down there on
the floor OF the convention while papa
takes care of the baby. Amt it a
shame?"
Senator Kearns and Congressman
Sutherland sat on the stage in adjOin
ing chairs for half an hour 1t was no
ticed that they didn't hold hands or
have a great deal To say TO each other.
but no blood was spilled.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1902-09-12

next order OF business was the report
OF the platform committee. His move
TO prevent, II possible. any further talk
on Senator Beverage showed only too
well how he had been instructed on
that matter before the convention met
after recess. c. f. Allen wanted 10
know If the committee was ready TO
report. Hts manner showed that he did
not propose TO be sidetracked in that
manner without fight. The chair
told him he had been informed that the
committee was ready. A motion had
been made that the visiting senator be
invited TO address the convention, but
the chair kept things moving so that
il was not seconded. But Allen heard
il, and getting on his feet said that II
the mover would amend so that the
senator could talk after the business
of the convention had been transacted
that he would second it.
Matt Dougharty saw trouble ahead
by the sudden tarn events had taken in
-spite Of the chair, and said there was
a misunderstanding that the motion
was not 10 ask the senator TO speak
then and there, but ascertain just
when he would like 10 address the con-
vention. adding that the senator from
abroad would probably much prefer to
make his remarks after the convention
had transacted its business.
Chairman Was Imperious.
A motion to suspend the rules was
forced past the chair, and a viva voce
vote was taken. The chair quickly de-
clared II lost. and utterly ignored cries
of division" IL was piece of riding
rough shod over the Kearns men. who
were making a quiet little fight TO get
the senator before the convention. II
was not done openly, but under cover.
Had they won, they would have hoped
that the senator would have devoted
his remarks TO the Cuban question and
stampeded the convention in that di-
rection.
When the cries of division could
no longer be ignored, the chair, by
ridlcule. plucked what little victory
the Senator Beverage men had won
by saying In a most sarcastic man
ner:
Division. will the man who voted
no stand up?"
There was roar at that sally. and
another when one or two delegates in
the back part of the theatre had the
courage to rise TO their feet
Then another call was made for the
resolutions committee. but il was not
ready TO report. Then Colonel Hayes
moved that Senator's Beverage and c..
D. Clark be asked to sit on the stage.
II was amended so as TO include Gov
ernor Wells. Governor Richards and
the other distinguished visitors who
might be keeping them company in
the Reed hotel. When someone asked
If that included Senator Kearns there
was roar OF laughter. The chair then
appointed Colonel Hayes, Glen Miller
of Salt Lake and w. D. Candland Of
Sanpete county to bring forth the
strangers within the gates of Og-
den

recorded for him. IL took the Salt Lake
delegation almost half an hour 10 ar
range its vote. Finally, after the bal
lots had been deposited in a lot, the
tellers were compelled 10 go out in the
alley and count them. In the mean
time, the convention resembled an ex-
citing day on a stock exchange. There
was not the slightest attempt at order
or anything else. The Howell men
were cheering and yelling. and calling
back and forth TO each other from
across the theatre. After a while or
der was restored and while waiting Tor
the Salt Lake vote the convention pro-
-ceeded to select its state committee.
Ii was in the middle OF that proceed
ing that the Salt Lake vote was an
nounced.
Howell Makes Speech
There were calls for Howell. and
when introduced by Chairman Booth
as the next congressman from Titan.
that gentleman made brief speech OK
thanks for the honor conferred, and
expressive of the high obligations IN
