FOR BETTER WAGES.
Railroad Brotherhood Committees Meet
In CHICAGO.


Chicago, Dec. Establishment COM
mittees of three railroad brotherhoods
from four western lines are in the city
arranging new wage schedule, in
which an advance of 12 to is per cent
in wages may be decided upon In all
seven adjustment boards and grievance
committees, as follows, arrived in Chi
cago yesterday:
Locomotive engineers and firemen of
the Northwestern road at the Briggs
House.
Railroad trainmen and conductors OF
all western roads at the Sherman
House.
Engineers and firemen Of the Mil
waukee & st. Paul road at the Wind
sor-C Clifton.
the Great Northern.
Not only are The committees Of the
railroad brotherhoods in Chicago, but
similar committees are in session in the
various railroad centers of the country.
The demands which are being formu-
lated will be submitted to the employ
ers next week. 1t is hardly expected
that the full demands will be acceded
to. especially as several roads recently
granted increases of from 5 to 8 per
cent.
None Of the brotherhood officials
would talk freely, but all agreed that an
increase in wages was due this class OF
railroad labor. One official said:
I'VE were promised higher wages two
years ago, and have been waiting pa
a. o,
haste on the part of the industrial COM
binations to raise the cost of the neces-
saries of life. Not only have the rail-
roads failed to pay us the promised ad-
vance, but they are doubling our work
by the use of monster engines that pull
twice the tonnage of those in service
two years ago. The same increase IN
work is felt in all departments, and the
employees merely ask proportionate
wages

Second Trial for Glen.

Manila, Dec. 3.-Orders have been re-
ceived from Washington directing that
Major Glenn of the Fifth infantry may
be put on trial for a second time on a
charge of cruelty committed during the
Samar campaign. Major Glenn is
charged with having executed several
native guides for misleading the Amer
lean column sent against the enemy S
stronghold Major Glenn himself re-
ported the matter, which has been the
subject of an extensive inquiry for sew
eral months.
1t is expected Major Glenn will in
form the court that he desires Major
General Chaffee and Brigadier General
Jacob Smith to be called as witnesses
but it is possible that their dispositions
will be taken instead.
Major Glenn was tried by court mar

Coal Strike Commission Begins
Taking of Testimony After
Ten Days Recess
LARGE CROWD IN ATTENDANCE
Chairman Gray Makes a Statement of
the Attitude of the Commission Re-
sardins the Efforts FOR an Outside
Settlement, Correcting Some Misun-
derstandinss Made Public.

Scranton, Pa, Dec 3.-After an ad-
representatives of the railroads and
miners were kept busy at work pre-
pairing evidence for submission to the
anthracite coal strike commission. the
hearings OF the miners side of the con-
troyersy was resumed in the state su-
uerior court room at 10 o'clock this
morning. The usual large crowd was
in attendance, and in addition there
were several new faces among the large
array of attorneys. The most promi-
merit among these was Samuel Dickin-
son. of Philadelphia, representing the
Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company,
large independent company, whose
collieries are located in the Panther
Creek valley. Among the spectators
were about twenty Italians and Holl-
anders, who will be called upon to tell
of the condition prevailing IN the MD
die portion of the region.
In opening the days proceedings
Chairman Gray made an explanation
of the attitude of the commission re-
garding the efforts for an outside set
tlement. He said there had been a
misunders tanding in some quarters.
The idea had gone out that the Wnole
matter would be dismissed, if an agree
ment was reached. This, he said, was
incorrect He read statement by the
sub committee in which 1t was stated
that the committee would not abrogate
its duties and that it would stand re-
sponsibIe for any agreement it ap-
nroyed or award It made.

nothing but the visionary dividend
earning capacity of the proposed en-
terprise you will at once put an effectu-
al end to all such organizations. In my
opinion a prohibitive tax on the stock
of every corporation, which is not rep
resentative of subs tantial value would
wipe such corporations out of exist
ence, and when that was done combina-
tions would be made only for the legiti-
mate trade advantages which could be
secured. Combinations of the latter
clas sin m yopinion are not harmful.
"As an example take Mt. Morgan's
steamboat merger. What motive did
Mr.. Morgan have in engineering this
gigantic scheme if it We're not for the
great profit he could derive, not thru
the legitimate business of shipping,
but thru the issuance of stock based on
the combination. If the matter We're
analyzed it would be found that Mr..
Morgan is not posted or even interested
in the conditions governing the actual
business OF navigating the Atlantic
ocean.
He as professional promoter sees an
opportunity to make a great combina-
ton on which a fabulous amount of
stock can be issued and sold, and thru
which incidentally Mr.. Morgan will
reap an enormous profit. The motive
for the railroad mergers will be found
to be the same. and it is this gambling
on the possibilities of enormous profits
which becomes at once the money max
ing end of the trust and not the legiti-
mate earnings, which should be the
real cause for the combinations and the
real source of profit"
"To put my ideas into execution. I
would simply give the collectors of in
ternal revenue authority to fix a value
on the stock of corporations the same
as they place a value on liquor and ci-
gars. It would have the tax on stock
that did not represent actual value
subject to a fixed tax. This fixed tax
In every instance to be sufficiently high
to make the existence of such stock

impossible. In order that no injustice
appeal might be had from the decision
of the internal revenue collector, pro-
vision should be made for a special
board of appeal, and even the Judgment
of this board might be appealed from
in the federal courts. This is my opin-
ion, would be ample machinery and a
practical method of reaching the evil
effects of trusts. 1t, however. is a
remedy that has occurred to me during
the past few months, and beyond think
ing it out along the lines suggested /

F'orecaster Cox says the worst is yet
to come. The northeast wind yester-
day reached velocity OF fifty-two
miles an hour. This is the greatest
velocity of the wind from that direction
this year, and has not been exceeded
since the Galveston storm. The first
storm warning was 1ent out from the
weather bureau at $3.50 o'clock yester-
day morning. At, 3 o'clock in the af-
ternoon another warning was sent out,
and all vessel owners We're ordered to
remain in port until the gale had pass

every case. At $50 p. m. the storm
broke.

The storm region extends from CEN

telegraph lines on the Chicago Great

kept track of the trains with difficulty,

were behind time. Added to this the
road officials feared that the falling
temperature would cause the rain to
freeze on the rails, and thus prevent
the locomotive engineers from making

NEW YORK is IN DANGER.
The Long Promised Coal Famine Ma,
Vet Appear.

Iet HPPcdIs
New York, Dec. 3.-Upon the weather
depends whether New York win be
visited by the greatest coal famine in
Its history, says the Herald.
Men who are interested in the var
ious branches of the trade declare they
can not get more than day away
from the condition that existed at the
end of the coal strike, and they will
not be able to get further away this
winter. If blizzard should tie up the
railroads, three days will see the few
remaining tons sell at prices which will
make them luxuries.
At the officers of the coal-carrying
roads it was said every effort was being
made to meet the test when 1t comes,
but there was little hope.
There is coming on the market about
100000 tons of hard coal day. About
g. 900 tons of this comes to New York.
The rest goes to New, England and
Canada
New York's actual demand in winter
is about 10000 tons a day. The sup"
ply. therefore, is about 1000 short

at which the verdict was delivered to
Judge Eichelberger and read. This
closes up a case of long standing ana
one which has caused considerable
comment and speculation on the part
of the citizens since the first time the
matter became aired in public, almost a
year ago. AT that time SwartZ was
patrolman on the local police force and
1t is alleged that his infatuation for
woman named Carrie B. Mincks caused
him to neglect his duty to such an ex-
tent that Mayor Picker learned of the
matter and asked him for his resigna-
ton.
On March IL, Swartzs wife filed in
formation in police court charging her
husband and the Mincks woman with
adultery.
The code of Iowa provides that any
person guilty of the crime charged
against Swartz may be imprisoned in
the penitentiary not to exceed three
years, or be fined not exceeding $500
and imprisoned in the county jail for
