CITIES CONTEST FOR HONOR.
Place for Next Encampement to Be
Settled.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.--The three
active candidates for the honor of en-
tertaining the G. A. R. at the next an
nual encampment are Saratoga, Allan
tic City and San Francisco. There
seems to be quite a sentiment in choos-
ing city between the Ohio and Missis-
sippi rivers, and it is said that the en-
campment may go to neither of the
three cities named If a city in the
Middle West actively pushes its claims.
The leading candidates for command
er-in.chief are General Stewart, of
Pennsylvania: General John G.. Black.
of Illinois, Colonel McElroy. of WASH
ington, and General Daniel Sickels, of
New York. General Stewart is thought
to have the lead at present, though
General Blacks friends claim about
an equal number of delegates pledged.
For senior vice-commander the race
apparently lies between ]. NJ. Smith,
Of Ohio, and H. NJ. Orahood, of Col
Drado, with Mr.. Shaw, of West Vir-
yinia, and Mr.. Calkins. of Oregon, con-

eighty-six delegates, representing II

opinion Expressed by Edward
Lauterbach, One Of the New
York Conferees.
APPEARANCES ARE HOPEFUL
Nothing Definite Given Out with
Reference TO Conferences
Held in New York
Yesterday.

NEW YORK, Oct. s--Numerous con-
ferences looking to settlement Of the
anthracite coal miners strike were
held in this city today, but tonight at
10 o'clock no evidence had been given
to the public that any results had been
reached. Rumors of settlement few
thick and fast. but any of the con-
ferees when approached almost in
variabiy answered the quest'pns con-
eernlng the consultation:
Il have nothing to say"
The conferences are still going on
tonight, but the impression prevails
that IL any basis Of settlement Ia
reached, ii will not be announced until
tomorrow, following the meeting to be
held at United States Senator PIatt's
downtown office at 10 o'clock.
The story of the day really centers
about the meetings in the afternoon at
Senator Platt's office.
At the conclusion Of the meeting
none present would say what had
taken place or whether any solution Of
the strike trouble had been reached.
Lauterbach replied to questions asked
him by saying that the appearances
looked very hopeful for speedy settle 4
ment Of the strike.
From what may be deemed an inside,
authoritative source, It may be an
nounced that the conference at the Of
fee of United States Senator Platt was
without result, the oper-
ators refusing to consider the political
aspect Of the situation. and maintains
ing that their position was one between
the employer and the employe as to
the management of the properties con-
cerned.

Engineers Of San Francisco Liner
Tender designations to

LOCAL INSPECTORS STEP IN
Cite Men to Show Cause for Their
Acknowledgement Said to

PORTLAND, Oct. s.--The engineers
on the steamship George W. Elder
handed In their designations TO the o.
Il. & n. Company today without as
signing any reason for their action.
The steamer was scheduled to sail for
San Francisco at o'clock tonight. but
the sailing date was. postponed "a
hours.
The company declined to accept the
designations of the men and notified
United States Inspectors Edwards and
Fuller that .he engineers had violated
the law in quitting without giving a
good and sufficient reason.
The inspectors notified the engineers
to appear at their Office tomorrow and
show good and sufficient reason for
their action.
II, in the minds OF the inspectors, the
engineers fail to show good reason
for resigning 1t is in the power of the
officials 10 revoke the licenses of the
men. The engineers on the Elder are
not members Of the local lodge OF en-
gineers, the members of which have
been on strike for several weeks. 1t
is believed that the strike was ordered
by President Uhler, Of the national
body in sympathy with the local en-
gineers.
1t is reported that the engineers on
the steamer Columbia and all OF the
0. r. & n. tugs have been ordered

SCROFULA.

To cure Scrofula take
SCOTS Emulsion.
Scrofula may be described as
-" scattered consumption"
1t is consumption of the
small glands under the skin,
and these break out into the
sores. SCOTS Emulsion heals
these sores.
But there's more to the
story. The loss OF flesh and
great weakness that comes
with Scrofula is a regular part
of the disease-the same as IN
consumption of the lungs.
For this as for the sores,
SCOTS Emulsion is just the
remedy.
Flesh and strength arc
gained by the use of SCOTS
Emulsion quicker than in any
other way.
Scrofulous children improve
in every way on SCOTS Emul-
sion.

THE NEW CITY MISSION BUILD

The new City Mission on Orange
 street is nearing completion and has been the subject of much favorable comment both for its outside and in-. side appearance and the arrangement of it's space. The auditorium is a par ticularly pleasing room, admirably lighted, high and airy, with exposed timber work overhead. It will seat about 800. The children's hall, directly over the auditorium, is just as striking in it's way This has a toilet and a locker-room under it's spectator gallery, the whole being so arranged as to be
 readily convertible into a woman's gymnasium if funds are procurable. The door and window castings, which are of ash are in all over the building
 and little remains but to put in the floor and hang doors. The finishing hardware is to be furnished by the Bas- set Hardware company, and is manu- factured by the Corbin company, of New Britain. The curtains, of which 101 will be required are to be furnished by Brown & Durham. The heating plant, composed of four Kelsey fur
 naces so arranged that one furnace alone will heat the whole building in the milder weather and the others add- ed as weather requires, has been in place for some weeks. They were put in by W. A. T. Smith. Despite the proverbial barrenness of August, subscriptions are still coming in both from friends and strangers who are anxious to see the building provided and paid for and entering upon it's work. A little less than nine thousand dollars is now all that is required to finish the building out of debt. The officers of the City Missionary as- sociation invites the public of New Ha- ven, in whose interest the building is
 being provided, to pay visit to it any time now, as all parts of it are accessi- ble.
 Any who desire to make or add to
 subscriptions will find the treasurer, MT. P. N. Welch, any day at the First National Bank, or the financial secre- tary, T. B. Wilson, at 573 George street.
