Az accustomed as are the people here, to
..;tnessing the departure OF immense ship
,,snts Of salt, great coneourse of citizens
altered to cheer the latest and much
soIted-about saline load which left Silver
srrings al seven o'clock this morning ac-
c6rding to schedule, on its journey east
- over the Erie, Delaware & Hudson
ana BOSTON q Maine Railroads.
when il Is considered that this train
oonsIsts OF seyenty-two cars, making a
t0fal length Of nearly mile, and that salt
4 an extremely heavy commodity, It Will
he unite apparent TO even the layman, that
I, Iss impossible to haul the big train

tiyes. i,

n vas splendid sight. The cars were
,aiiv decorated with flags, banners, ETC.,
ssc6 car being labelled with the name OF
tbe consignee and its destination. Each
rar was nearly double the capacity OF the
ordinary freight car, and all the cars were
fresh from the shops, being OF the latest
design,-and all OF the same size and color,
making a train such as is not ordinarily
seen,
me crowd cheered and whistles blew. 1t
was indeed a spectacle not soon TO be for
gotten in Silver Springs, the home Of
Worcester Salt
From railroad officials il is learned that
this train Is the best equipped freight train
ever moved in this country. II Is fitted
with air brakes and will be run with the
precision Of frst-class passenger train.
To the person with passion for statis-
tics, there are some startling figures in
connection with this shipment.
For example! II contains nearly 3,000,-
900 pounds OF Worcester Salt for dairy and
household use; enough salt 10 season
0m,00O pounds OF butter.
Mr.. NJ. 7. Donovan, freight traffic man
ager Of the Boston a. Maine Railroad sys-
TEN, states that this shipment is the
largest single shipment OF one commodity
ever made over his road, to whose rails II
will be delivered by the Delaware & Hud-
son Co.
A significant question which viii natu-
rally suggest itself to an ordinary reader
is-"How is Il possible TO ship so much
Of one commodity at one time "
The answer is found In the peerless
quality Of Worcester Salt which has made
Il the iavorite in dairy sections where
high-grade salt is demanded, and which
has made possible the colossal business
requiring mammoth trains 10 nAnule the
sales Of this brand of salt.
Il may also be OF interest TO the reader
70 know that this is the seventh special
train shipment made by the Worcester
salt CO.. and It is the largest shipment yet
made, when the territory in which the
goods are 10 be distributed, is considered.
The contents OF the big train have been
entirely sold 10 merchants in New Hamp-
shire Vermont and North Western Massa-
Chuseits.

MONDAYS CONVENTION.

Practically Certain That Majority Of
 Delegates vvili Favor Settlement.
 Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 1T.-In accord ance with the call issued yesterday by order of the executive boards of the anthracite districts of the miners union all locals throughout the coal fields began electing delegates to-day to the convention which will be held here next Monday to consider the rejection or acceptance of the arbitration plan submitted by President Roosevelt.
 Most of the local unions held their meetings tonight They all will have been held by tomorrow night It is practically certain that majority of the delegates will come to the conven- cepting the arbitration scheme The prominent officials of the union say there is no fear that the opposition will be strong enough to defeat the ef- forts of those who favor ending the strike by arbitrating their differences with the operators. President Mitchell does not care to anticipate the action of the convention, but from his manner it is taken that he has not the slightest doubt as to the result. He will go into the convention and make 8 strong speech for the acceptance of the arbi- tration scheme.
 The indications are the convention will last two days and that there will be much debate on various features of the arbitration plan. The principal &oL L,o hafo +ta Y@la Is accepted by the miners will be that of taking care of all the men. The con- ditions of the mines are such that all workmen cannot be given work imme- diately and some will have to wait for weeks before the companies can take care of them. The operators will not dismiss the non-union men in order to give employment to a returning strik- er It is understood the union will take care of all such men who fail to find immediate employment. This will be done by drawing funds from the relief fund, which is said to be still growing.
 The coal companies will do all in their power to meet the public demand for coal. Preparations for resun1ing as soon as the miners call the strike off are going on apace.
 It is estimated that 25 per cent. of the collieries will be in operation on the first day after the suspension is over. The railroads are also making every effort to have enough cars on hand to carry the freshly mined coal to market and are sending thousands of cars into the regions and placing them on sidings at the collieries.
 The state troops are having an easy time of it and are expecting to hear of the withdrawal of a portion of the divi- sion at any time.
 The stationary firemen affiliate with the Stationary Firemen's association of Pennsylvania, who went on strike on June 2, along with the firemen belong ing to the Mine Workers union, met to- night and decided to abide by the de- cision of the United Mine Workers convention.

COAL STRIKE COMMISSION
CARROLL D. WRIGHT WILL NOT
 HAVE fl VOTE.
Official Statement issued That the Body Is So Constituted That It VIII Require aTwo-Thirds Vote to Settle Any Point Upon Which There is Any Dispute- wFIght's Duties as Recorder.


Washington, Oct. 1.-The following authoritative statement is made re- garding the commission to arbitrate the anthracite coal disputes:
 The commission is so constituted that it will require a thirds vote to settle any point upon which there is dispute
 That means that Commissioner Wright, the recorder, is not to be re- garded as a member of the commission in passing upon questions at issue be- fore it. An official of the war depart ment with a great deal of experience said: "In all military boards and courts the recorder has no vote, but he is the man who runs the board"
 Colonel Wright will keep the records, summon witnesses, carry out the orders of the commission and perhaps prepare it's report under instructions.
 Brigadier-General John M. Wilson the military member of the coal strike arbitration commission, and Colonel Carroll D. Wright, recorder of the com- mission, had an extended conference with President Roosevelt to-day. They discussed pretty fully the events lead ing up to the appointment of the com mission and tentatively some arrange ments for it's work. On leaving the White house General Wilson said it was yet too early to discuss for publication the work of the commission. He indi- cated that the body would be organized in Washington, but when and where its sittings would be held were details which would be worked out by the com- mission itself. It is known that the commission will not begin it's labors formally until the miners shall have agreed to it.
 Later in the day E. W. Parker, the mining expert of the commission, call ed at the White house with Dr. David T. Day. of the geological survey, and formally accepted his appointment. Mir. Parker remained with the president and Colonel Wright for a considerable time.
 It is not announced yet how the ex- penses of the commission will be paid The civilian members will be entitled to. per diem fixed by the president, but from what fund the amount will be paid has not been determined.
