STRIKE OF HOD CARRIERS.
Chicago, April "A strike of hod
carriers and building laborers was
called today, Herman Lillien, the agent,
being compelled by the men to repu-
diate the agreement he made yester-
day with the employers organization.
Yesterday an advance of from 30 to IS
cents to be effective June L. was agreed
upon. Lillien agreed not to call the
strike until the men met and ratified or
repudiated the agreement. When the
men learned this, they We're indignant.
They said they had delivered an ulti-
matum to strike unless the advance
was granted Immediately. They flock
ed to headquarters today, and COM
PEELED Lillien to call a strike. The
strike, it is said, will involve the help
ers, thus affecting LOO men. Building
operations will be seriously retarded
according to the strikers.
MANY COAL MINES IDLE.
Dubois, Pa, April 2.-All bituminous
coal mines of the Rochester and Pitts
burg Iron and Coal Company are idle
today. The resolutions declaring a
strike were obeyed by all men, and, as
a consequence 10000 men are idle. The
final clause OF the strike resolution
reads: mo settlement Of the question
in dispute shall be recognized unless
sanctioned by the properly authorized
and officials of the organiz-
tion." This means that the men will
insist on the recognition of the miners
union, and also interpreted as indicat-
ing a long struggle, as the company
has always refused to recognize the
union leaders and insisted upon dealing
with employees as individuals.

A Commission Representing the Postoftice and

Washington.
DISCUSS POSTAL CURRENCY
No Statute or Postal Agreement With Cuba Concerning
the Transmission Of Mail After May 20, When
Cuba Assumes Complete
Independence.

Washington, April 2.-The post
master general today received COM
munication from the secretary of war
officially notifying him that, on May 20
next, Cuba will become foreign coun-
try and, upon the withdrawal of the
United States on that date, there will
be no statute or postal condition by
which mail can be transmitted. Secre-
tary Root states it Is fair to presume
that the diplomatic representatives of
the two countries will at an early date
frame postal convention, similar in
general character, perhaps, to that
which the United States now has with
Mexico: but, in the meantime, suggests
that congress be asked to authorize
continuance on the present basis upon
an informal agreement of the postal
authorities of the two countries. The
postmaster general will Immediately
take steps to have the matter put in
proper shape.
A POSTAL CURRENCY.
Washington, April "A commission,
consisting of three officials each from
the postoffice department and the
treasury department, will meet here
within few days to consider the sub
ject of the establishment of postal cur
rency. The present plan is to provide
for small currency to take the place of
one and two dollar bills, which it is be-
lieved will provide safer method for
the transmission of small amounts
through the mails as it is intended
these notes shall be payable only at
the place designated thereon by the
purchaser.

OF MAIL SERVICE
Business Men Seek Improvement of
Connections Toward
South.

A movement has been taken up by
Rock Island business men to secure
railway mail service in and out of
the tri-cities on trains and 10 on
the Burlington, generally known as
the Beardstown accommodation. y
petition addressed to the superin-
tendent of railway mail service at
Washington is now being circulated
and signed by business men of this
city and the matter is being agitated
in the various towns along the line
of the Burlington between here and
Beardstown.
The Beardstown accommodation
arrives in Rock Island about noon
and leaves again for the south about
it connection would be afforded with
through east and west trains on
both the Burlington and Santa Fe
main lines, TO which the local mails
now have no access except by wait
ing over.
The proposed service would be of
particular benefit to the business
men of the cities along the route,
giving them an opportunity to trans
NIT orders with greater facility and
otherwise materially quickening and
improving both the local and the
general mail connections to the
south and southwest. The movement
is deserving of the early attention of
the postoffice department.

indication that the one this fall will

If the plans of some of the good
people of Rock Island don't miscarry
we may wake up some morning and
find that the Milwaukee road has
been compelled to knock the trucks
of a box ear and set il down here

have less business and more street
room to do it in. We might close up
some idle streets and get more bust
ness, but what's the use, we need
the-rOom.
The Vulcan thunder works, which,
according to Greek mythology, had

crew on the night shift last night, or
else old Vulcan has merged the es-

dry not so well known. From the
uproar created last night the thun-
