THE COAL STRIKE Arbitration,

1t is evident from the replies which
the coal mine operators have made to
the statement of Mr.. Mitchell. presi-
dent of the United Mine workers, that
the real issue in the coal strike arbi-
tration is the question Of the recogni-
ton of the United Mine Workers I'm
ion There are other issues of course,
but they haven't the Importance, in the
estimation of either the miners or the
operators, that the one relating to the
miners union has.
The miners no doubt feel that IL
they can secure the recognition Of their
union by the operators they viii be Ia
a position TO get about all they desire.
They might not get 1t Immediately, but
they would have such power that they
would be able to get 1t eventually.
This. the operators understand and
that is why they are opposing it so
strongly,
And they are very much afraid
that the commission wi1l report
in favor of recognition Of the
union, although IN the PROPOSE
ton submitted TO the President
by the operators. through Mr.. ]. p.
Morgan, the idea that the question of
the recognition of the union was to be
considered by commission was care
fully excluded Their uneasiness on
this point Is shown by the reference to
the union made by Mr.. Baer, president
of the Reading Railroad. He says that
the coal operators, while they will not
recognize the union of the United Mine
Workers. for the reason that that or
ganization extends throughout all Of
the bituminous coal fields. and that
the. conditions connected with the min.
ing of bituninous coal are vastly differ
ent from those connected with the min
cause if one union had Jurisdiction over
both the anthracite and the bituminous
coal fields 1T would practically control
the entire fuel output of the country,
they might recognize a union COM
posed exclusively of miners of anthra-
cite coal.
1t is not known of course what the
commission will do in regard to the
matter, but the chances are that it
will eonfine itself to the question on
which the strike was based, namely,
the compensation of the miners, the
hours of labor. the weighing of coal
and other similar questions. 1t is eN-
dent from what has been done thus
far that the commissions report will
hardly be forthcoming before the end
of the year.

Luxuries for Congressmen.

Statesmen of the Jerry simpson type
who wish their constituents to believe
that they are the same simple-minded
rustics in Washington they always
were at home, says the Washington
correspondent of the New York Post,
would do we'll to suppress the report
of MIR. Woods, the superintendent of
the Capitol who writes thus of the
luxuries he provides for overworked
members of Congress in connection
with their bath facilities:
This bathing room, as we'll as that
in the Senate wing, is supplied with
a, resting room containing d large ten
plate static electrical machine driven
classes of minor ailments affecting the
human body yield to this electrical
treatment and the machine affords a
harmless and beneficial tonic even to
the well. Both machines have been
much patronized during the past sea-
SON."
1t is such nice thing TO have a
place where the human bodies" of the
congressman can get refreshment. while
their astral bodies are mixing with the
immeFtals, or hustlins through the de-
partments in search of patronage! The
only thing still needed is the instaha-
ton of a. complete rest cure in tho
dome, and serum treatment for. sore
throat in the ante-Peom of the SUI
preme Court chamber. But to return
to the report;
The bathing rooms now present q
pleasing and cleanly appearance. With
the exception Of one room, the fixtures
are of porcelain of the highest grade.
The walls throughout are wainseeted
with the finest Italian white marble
8 feet and inch high. In the excepted
room, the walls are lined with the
so-called English vein Italian marble.
The tub Is of the same handsome ma
terial,"
And yet there are members who, like
Uncle Joe" Cannon. grumble owen
every dollar spent for improving those
parts of the national capital which are
open for the enjoyment of the whole

the playing of prapks on the part of

THE COTTON WAREHOUSE SCHEME.

Several months ago we called atten.
ton to scheme of the Trust Com
pany of the Republic, a company Iocat-
ed in New York, to build a large num-
Der of warehouses in the Soath-15O.
according to reports-for the storage of
cotton upon which negotiable receipts
were to be issued, thus making cotton
good collateral. but as we had heard
nothing Of the matter since, had not
IN fact heard of any warehouses being
built, we concluded that the scheme
had been dropped.
1t seems, however that it has not.
According TO. cable dispatches Daniel
Leroy Dresser, president of the Trust
Company Of the Republic. was in Man
chester, England, ON Tuesday last, for
the purpose of bringing the scheme Of
his company before the cotton spin
ners of that city. The dispatches state
that 4 was we'll received, and
steps were taken to build warehouses
and the necessary terminals in Man
chester, to be used In connection with
the projected warehouses in the South
ern states of this country. 1t seems
that 1T Is the plan to have lines, OF
steamships to run from the cotton
ports carrying cotton to the Manches-
ter warehouses.
1t is not altogether clear what
the scheme of the Trust Com
pany of the Republic is, OF
rather how it is to differ from
the SYSTEM that is now in use, unless
it be that the warehouses are intended
for the benefit Of cotton growers who
| wish to hold their cotton for better
| prices, In that case the cotton grow
/ ers could get negotiable warehouse re-
| ceipts which they could use in raising
money. They can get money on their
their cotton held for them as long as
they care to have it held. but it may
be that the Trust Company is going to
hold it on better terms than can. now
! be obtained.
If one of the purposes is to hold back
cotton with the idea of getting higher
price for il the warehouses will have
to be pretty big ones or there will have
to be more than $50 of them. That
number of warehouses of the. capacity
of those now in use for the storing OF
cotton, would not hold sufficient Gotten

that the Trust Company Of the Re-
public shows that it is in earnest n

some called rover a Dude.

The announcement of Charlemange
Towers new diplomatic position at
Berlin has recalled to many Duluth
persons his five years residence in this
city. in the capacity Of president of the
Duluth g. Iron Mountain road, says the
Duluth Tribune. He was much adj
mired and respected, but was con-
sidered rather distant, despite the fact
that he was really quite approachable.
Duluth man who knows Mr.. Tower
quite intimately says:
"Charlemange Tower was at once
the most extensively and at the same
time the worst dressed man in Duluth.
This is accounted for from the fact
that he had his clothes made in Lon
don. In the early sos, when Mr.. Tow
er was here, there were not as many
fashionably dressed men here as now,
and / must confess that large num-
Der considered him dude. But he
was nothing of the sort. He was an
aristoerat, and that was all there was
to it, and he was a gentleman every
inch of the way. Mr.. Tower doubtless
felt the responsibility of the great
wealth of the Tower family and as
president of the Iron Range road and
a member of the Executive Committee
of the Minnesota Iron Company.
The only time that Mr.. Tower ever
showed the white feather was when
the mosquitoes got after him. 1 re-
call that when he made his first trip
to the present site of Tower he was
accompanied by William Bassett, now
member of the Soldiers Home at
Old Point Comfort. and John MALL
man, explorers. The trip up over the
trail had been difficult and tiresome
but Mr.. Tower stood it like veteran
and found no fault with anything
Bassett and Mailman had voted him a
trump. But he fell a few notches in
their estimation the first night in
camp. Just as Bassett and Mailman
had fallen asleep Mr.. Tower called
out:
Mr.. Bassett, Mr.. Bassett. there's
mosquito in the tent
is that so? growled MIR. Bassett

Palma NOT so ANXIOUS.

1t is reported that Mr.. Henry OK
nard, the chief representative of the
beet suger manufacturers, and, of
course. strong opponent Of the Gu
ban reciprocity treaty. is already in
Washington preparing to continue the
fight against the ratification of that
treaty. He is quoted as saying that
the beet sugar men will not oppose the
ratificati ton of the treaty provided it
is agreed that all of the other recfproc-
ity treaties pending before the Senate
shall be ratified. He is quite safe in
making that proposition. There is no
probability that an agreement to rat
lily alt of the pending reciprocity trea-
/. ties will be secured, Nobody knows
that better than DIR. OxnaPd.
But from recent reports from Cuba
there is ground for saying that Mr..
Oxnard's services as a lobbyist against
the treaty may not be needed in Wash
ington next winter. 1t seems that
the Cubans are. not as anxious for.
reciprocity relations with the United
States as they were a year ago. Presi-
dent Palma says that the price of SUI
gar has improved so much, and that
there is such fair promise of a still
further increase, that the twenty per
cent. reduction in our tariff on Cuban
sugar is not now a very attractive
proposition to the Cuban, government.
OF course for the twenty per cent con-
cession Cuba. would have to make like
reductions in her tariff on American
products imported into Cuba. and that
would mean a very large reduction in
her customs receipts.
As long as the Cuban sugar plant
crop without concessions from this
country, the Cuban government will
not be very desirious for reciprocity,
because Cuba needs all the revenue she
can get. 1t may turn out therefore,
that the failure to Patify the Cuban
reciprocity treaty at the last session
of Congress was our loss-that we
would have been the chief gamer if it
had been ratified,
We are under a half promise to make
some trade concessions to Cuba. There
was an understanding of that kind
when the Platt amendment was incor-
porated in the Cuban constitution. Our
failure to fulfil that promise is. not
ereditable to us. Besides, it will have
a tendency to prevent us from getting
fair share of Cuba's commerce. AS
matter of fact we have not succeeded
in getting as big a percentage of it as
we ought to have
