indianapolis Convention Devotes the
Day to Discussion of Plans
for Relief.
Sentiment Strongly in Favor of Adopt
ing the Recommendation of
President Mitchell.

Indianapolis, July 19.-The senti-
ment among the delegates to the MIN
ers' convention is fully as strong as
ever against strike and all danger of
such an event has now passed. The
anthracite men favoring strike ad-
mitted there was no chance of a walk
out and came into the convention de-
termined to stand as unit by the rec
concentrations of President Mitchell.
The convention was called to order
few minutes after 10 and almost i'm
mediately a recess Of half an hour was
taken. Thomas L. Nichols, presid ent
of District No. 1, which was chiefly in
strumental in calling the convention,
denied that he had been in favor of a
general strike. He said: "Just now I
guess it is about certain there will be
no strike and if a good fund is raised 1
think it will be just as well. It is the
best that can be done now"
The question Of whether the assess
ment recommendation by President
Mitchell for the relief of the anthracite
miners be used also for the benefit of
striking bituminous miners in diff
ferent parts of the country was the
only thing before the convention. The
debate grew so energetic it was deter
mined to hold an executive session dur
ing the afternoon. Nothing was deter
mined during the morning regarding
the distribution of the assessment.

New York, July 19.-The Heralds
Washington correspondent says:
Discussion of President Roosevelt's s
action in forcibly retiring General
Jacob H, Smith from active service in
the army has taken political turn and
both Republicans and Democrats find
in it complete vindication of their at
titude in congress.
The Republicans take the ground
that the president completely backs up
their assertions that instances of cruel
ty in the Philippines were isolated,
and whenever an officer was found
guilty he would be summarily pun.
ished.
The Democrats take the ground that
they have driven the administration
to cover. and that the change of inten.
tion on the part of the president was
brought about by Senator Carmack's
recent statement that the Philippines
would furnish the principal issue in the
coming campaign.

Aristocratic Circles of Great Britain
Stirred by Sensational Suit.
London, July 19.--Lady De La War;
has been awarded a decree of divorce
against her husband for desertion and
misconduct.
The trouble between Earl and Lady
De La War; began last March, when
the lady sued to have her conjugal
rights restored, claiming that the earl
had practically deserted her. Her suit
was granted.
The couple were not happy, however,
and five weeks ago, the countess en-
tered suit for divorce, naming prom
inent American actress as correspond
ent in her original complaint, but this
charge afterwards was withdrawn.
The countess is the daughter of Lord
Brassey and married the earl in 1891.
De La War; is of ancient lineage and
has had an eventful career. He was
identified with the Hooley companies,
was a correspondent in South Africa, a
captain in the army, hotel proprietor
and an organizer of automobile carni-
walls

In the shadow of Presidents Roose-

was responsible for the reception.

TlcHENOR WILL GET 1T.
New Assistant Secretary of the Treas.
ury to Be Appointed. 0..


Washington, July 19-It is expected
here that Henry D. Tichenor of New
York will be appointed assistant secre.
tary of the treasury to succeed Gen
eral Spaulding, who is about to retire.
Tichenor is son of George G. Tiche-
nor, recently deceased, who was as.
sistant secretary of the treasury under
Harrison, and a member of the board
of general appraisers at New York at
the time of his death.
The elder Tichenor's successor on
the New York board has not been
named. It is a life position, paying ST..
500 a year, and is considered one of
the best places in the government serv.
ice. Treasury officials believe the
place will go to a young and vigorous
lawyer, rather than to tariff expert.
This belief is founded largely on the
fact that Marion Devries of California,
a former congressman and young
lawyer without special knowledge of
tariffs, has made the best general ap.
praiser ever known on the board.

broken by the new Maine, which left
the Cramps yard on Tuesday for her
builders trial trip off the Delaware
capes.
AS she came up the river on her re.
turn her decks bore figures indicating
that she had made 1929 knots on the
run. These figures, while showing the
Names best speed over measured
course, do not indicate her greatest
burst of speed.
For thirty minutes she ran at a
speed of 1895 knots, as Indicated by
the revolutions Of her screw, 125 a

The trial indicated that, barring &C:
cident, the Maine will easily exceed
the contract speed of 18 knots an
hour. The course over which the test
was made was laid southeast of east
from the Overfalls lighthouse.

RUSSIA AND THE TRUSTS.
international Conference 70 Deal With
the Problem. =. :.

. tIlS TiOUiSIIls
London, July 19.-It is reported that
Russia has suggested an international
conference to deaD with trusts. She
has, it is said, asked the signatories
of the Brussels sugar conference to
consider. means to protect interna-
tional commerce against artificial de-
preston in prices, whether by govern
ment bounties or trust undertakings.
M. Tatischeff, the Russian financial
agent in London, declares that this
step is taken in the economic inter
ests of all nations. The czar warmly
approves the idea. M. Tatischeff, ad.
mits that the powers signing the Brus-
sells convention have decided to penal
ize Russian sugar on the ground that
Russia grants indirect bounties. He is
not aware whether the United States
will be invited to participate in the
conference, but is sure that all ma
tions will be welcome. The Russians
will present a proposal for the appli-,
cation of the same ideas that were
manifested at The Hague peace con-
ference. Russia is now awaiting the
replies of the various governments.
