MEETING POSTPONED :,
NEGROES WILL NOT ASSEMBLE
HERE NOVEMBER IS.
Ad Winds Says a Message Has Been
"Saunt" from Washington
That Federal ofiiceholders
are to Go.

! Ad Winds. the negro politician of
Greensboro. who was in Montgomery yes
terday announced that the negro con-
vention called for November Is. in Mont
Eomery had been postponed indefinitely.
Winds said while here he had a con-
ference with white men who are opposed
to the lilly white movement and it was
decided to indefinitely postpone the meet
ing OF negroes which was arranged by
the negro Executive Committee at its
meeting in Selma recently. These white
men he said had recently been to Wash
tngton and reflected the views of the
President. He declined to give their
names.
The meeting was postponed, Winds
said, to give time for the removal of
some Of the most Objectionable Republi-
can off1ceholders. All of them he said
would not be removed soon, but he de-
clared the star actors in the Birmingham
convention would have their official heads
cut of.
He declared positively that J. o.
Thompson of Tuskegee is soon to be APP
pointed United States Internal Revenue
Collector for Alabama to succeed Julian
H. Bingham. This information he said
he had direct from Washington through
a white man who had Just returned from
there

Republicans will join with their black
wing movement and that no exclusive
negro party will be organized. Such
party he says would not be recognized by
the National Convention and neither will
a white mans party be recognized in the
National Council of his party.
Winds declares that he is advised by
white men recently from Washington
that neither Captain j. w. Dimmick
National Committeeman nor w. I. Well
man. State Chairman. will be able to con-
troll even the appointment of a fourth
class postmaster in Alabama.

The Course Reduced to Three Years
Annapolis Dispatch TO Washington Post
The order issued by the Navy Department
providing for a three-year. instead OF four

definite period has been received here. This
Is the most sweeping change in the academy
curriculum which has taken place In years,
and is made on account of the pressing need
OF naval officers.
The present first class. which would have
graduated in June. 1903. will graduate in Feb
ruary of that year. and the class Of 1904 will
graduate in February. instead Of June. 1904.
The present third class of 1905 will graduate
in June, 1904, and thereafter until further or
ders all the classes will graduate year ear
lier. The order will go into effect practically
tomorrow, although for some time in indica-
tion of this action the studies in the higher
classes been advanced, looking toward the
complexion of the course in the limited time
as nearly as possible. Most of the studies of
the last term of the graduated class are OF a
practical nature, and this application of what
they have learned will be given the graduates
on shfpboard. far as possible. Most of the
ceremony attendant upon graduation week at
the academy will have 10 be omitted in Feb
ruary as the weather is not likely TO permit

 In the Hidden Treasure mine the power contained in the drainage is converted into electricity, which oper- ates the cars, lights the mine and ventilates it, besides operating hoist and pump employed to lift the pay dirt and water out of the blue channel which lies lower than the tunnel A 3-foot Pelton wheel, under $50 feet of vertical pressure, having a capacity of 200 horsepoHer, converts this press ure into electricity, which is returned to the mine to drive the electric trol ley motors employed in hauling the cars. The face of the tunnel is now in 10000 feet. and an average of 440 tons of gravel per day is extracted. The total capacity of horses and mules was only 180 tons per day, which cost 12.6 cents per ton. Electric traction has reduced the cost of haulage to cents per ton and the cos, of mini g from 90 cents to S4 cents per ,on thus effecting a total saving of 13.6 per ton in the operation of the mine, be- sides the additional gain of free illu- imitation. Corresponding benefits have been obtained in the Red Point mine through the use of compressed air.
 On the mother lode the compe- tition is keen between direct water power. electricity and fuel oil. The adoption of these agents as a substi- tute for wood burning to produce pow. CT has resulted in cutting down the cost of hoisting pumping. and milling nearly one-half The use of oil for the generation of steam power has al so stopped a big drain on the adja- cent forests, and. incidentally, other interests besides mining are thus being neftted.-Chronicle.

POWER AGENCIES IN MINING.

The question of power in mining in California is now one of the most important associated with the indus try. Wate-, electricity, compressed air and the use of fuel oil are actively competing for supremacy. Local con- ditions some times favor one, some times another. The two largest drift mines in the state-the Red Point and the Hidden Treasure-both located in Placer county. and adjoining proper ties, are drawing the power used in the mine ventilation and in haulage from the natural drainage of the works Both of these mines are located in po- sitions where suitable fall for power production is obtainable. One cov- erts the water power, thus obtained at the base of the descent in the adjacent canyon into transmissible electric power; the other into transmissible compressed power. In both mines power is needed chiefly to haul the empty cars into the mine, the loaded cars emerging by gravity. In each this service was formerly performed by horse or mule power. -.ss.a
 The compressor locomotive employed in the Red Point mine hauis from six teen to eighfeen' cars into the mine at . trip at a'speed of nine miles an hour The engine is charged before starting into the tunnel and is re charged at the isf1, ,s001fOot station The compressed air is obtained from a five-foot Peiton wheel which drives the blower -ventflafing the under ground workings. It Is rather odd circumstances that no advantage has been taken in thfs nine of employing power in the gravity from the face of the workings to the 1Dodth of the tun- nel in rehlils the exhaustsd syiipder of the descending compressor locomo- tive. which might be done by the sim ple affschnsst of sn air pump to the
