TO INCREASE BUSINESS.
Sherburne & Daley Will Enlarge
Their Present Establishment.
Have Leased Entire Building and will Make
Big improvements.

| One of the most important change.
contemplated by an Augusta business
house this year is that contemplated
by the successful and well-known firm
of Sherburne & Daley, dealers in
clothing, footwear and furnishings
The growth of this firms business has
been steady ever since they entered in
to partnership and now they find that
their present accommodations are
wholly inadequate to handle the vol
ume of trade which is coming their
way. And so, they are going to great
ly enlarge their present establishment.
The building which they occupy is
four-stories. The street floor has here
tofore been used by them. The upper
floors have been occupied by the Oscar
Holway Company and other parties.
Sherburne & Daley have hired the
whole building and will use it all in
handling their business.
Many alterations will be made and
when done it is asserted that no finer
clothing store can be found in the
State, and but few stores anywhere
will excel it in beauty and conven-
fence.

many respects. At present there is "A
stairway leading to the upper floors
from the outside This will be taken
out and a new plate glass window,
reaching to the entrance to the store,
will be put in it's place. This window
will be the same size as the one now
south of the entrance, thus having two
large plate glass windows of uniform
size on either side of the entrance.
Room for the window display of goods
will thus be largely increased.
At the rear of the store will be erect
ed a wide stairway leading to the floor
above, by which means customers may
reach that department of the store. On
the first floor will be displayed every
thing in the line of gentlemen'S wear
clothing, hats and caps, furnishings,
boots and shoes. New counters, show
cases and every necessary adjunct for
the proper display Of goods, will be
provided.
Upstairs the changes to be made are
many. The third floor is to be removed
entirely and both the second and third
floor rooms will be turned into one. 1t
will be very high posted-at least Is
feet from floor to ceiling. Three mas
sive plate glass windows will fill in the
space on the Water street side of the
building, which is now occupied by two
tiers of small windows. Goods will be
display in these windows. A steel cell
ing will add much to the beauty of the
room.
On this floor will be found children's
and ladies' and childrens
foot wear. The stocks of goods in
these lines will be very large-perhaps
the largest in Maine.
The present fourth floor will not be
disturbed but will be used as store
room for goods.
Messrs. Sherburne & Daley are sat
isfied that when the alterations which
they are now planning have been done
they will have very large and COM
establishment, and will then
be able to meet all the demands of
their increasing trade. 1t will take
some eight or 10 weeks before the re-
pairs. which will be done by Contrac
tor G. E. HoXie, are completed.

among these was the appointment of
DR.. Carlos Findley as chief health Of
fcer OF the island. This appointment
is subject to ratification by President
elect Palma. DR.. Fin dley first ad-
vanced the theory that yellow fever is
spread by mosquitoes, the adoption Of
which has done SO much to rid Cuba
of the yellow scourge,
An old Spanish concession for
electric lighting, known as the Cas-

BY SMALL MAJORITY.
Mine Workers Vote in Favor Of Con.
tinuing Strike.


Hazleton, Pa, May 1.-THE anthra-
cite mine workers haye decided to con-
t taS!sot the 81 *'eathe $4,000 men
it out to thgbitHtz end. The vote to
continue t ssnspension was "as fol-
lows: Total cast, S1; for strike,
4611z against strike, 849A; majority
for strike, 111k.
President. Mitchell, however, in CON-
pliance with<the rales of the United
Mine NhrkeEs,. announced to the pnb-
lie that tae action of the convention
Was4 unanimous. :.
The step taken, after the miners had
practically considered the matter for
two months, has#iped out the uncer-
tainty of the: situation, and 1t is freely
predicted that the most serious labor
struggle In the history Of the country,
if not the world, is about to begin.
This is the view taken bynearly every
miner.
While the leaders are cautious and
wilr not forecast their actions, it is not
unlikely that the miners fight will be
carried into the bituminous coal re-
gions and into other fields of industry.
They have saved their money and
are considered to be in better shape
for fight than thew were in the great
strike of 1900. That struggle ended
in the mine owners giving the men
a 10 per cent advance after six
weeks suspension.
The operators are on record as being
unalterably opposed to granting the
! men any concessions and they have
personally informed the mine work
ers' leaders Of the fact.

Over -Four Hundred thousand Men

Both Sides Preparing for a Long
struoole-Deelsfon to Extend the
Strike Of Anthracite Miners Carries
by Only q Small Majority.

Hazleton, Pa, May 1.-THE anthra-
cite mine workers in convention, in
order to win their strike, unanimously
decided upon plan that, If carried
into successful operation, would prac-
tically tie up the Industries of the
country, para1yze business and incon-
Yenience the people throughout the
United States. It is their desire that
a special national convention of the
United Mine Workers of America be
called as soon as practicable for the
purpose of endeavoring to have all
the bituminous mine workers, both
organized and unorganized, involved
in the anthracite miners struggle.
This announcement was officially
made, after the convention had ad-
journed sine die, by President John
Mitchell in statement giving the re-
suit of the deliberations of the dele
gates In convention. This statement
is as follows:
AT the morning session the conven-
ton petitioned the national officers to
issue call for a national convention
Of all miners employed in the United

the situation In the anthracite fields.
If the desire of the anthracite miners
is carried into effect national suspen-
sion of coal mining will be inaugural
ed. All questions of detail as to the
direction of the strike in the anthra-
cite field were referred to the district
and national officers. Definite plans
will be outlined within the next few
days. For the present the engineers,
iremen and pump runners will con
tinue at work. All mine workers were
advised to remain at their homes, alb
stain from frequenting saloons and un-
der all circumstances observe the
law"
If special national convention is
called and the miners succeed in their
object 1t would directly affect 1000
men, who are employed in and about
the coal mines of the country. Coal
would soon become scarce and this
would ultimately result in the tying
up Of railroads and all sorts>ef indus
tries that use large quantittes. of the
fuel.
