Settles Labor Trouble.

Chicago. Nov. 2.-The Chicago Fed
GRAFTON of Labor to-day rescinded its
act of expulsion against TypographIcal
Union No. IS and offered to reinstate
the delegates when they apply for ad-
mission.
The action of the Chicago Federation
is due directly to an order from Presi-
dent Samuel Gompers of the American
Federation of Labor, who commanded
it to reinstate the Typographical Union
by November 10th or lose its right of
aililiation with the national body. He.
in turn, was stirred up by the Interna-
tional Typographical Union, which no.
titled him that unless he issued the or
der it would withdraw from the AmerI-
can Federation of Labor.
To-day's action terminates a two
year controversy that had its origin in
strike of the newspaper pressmen of
Chicago. When the printers refused to
join the strike or give the strikers
their moral support. maintaining that
to do so would be to violate their five
year contract with the newspaper pub
fishers. their delegates were expelled
from the Federation of Labor.

Gifts to Colorado College Museum.

Colorado Springs, Nov. 3.-Now that
the walls of the new science hall are
really rising, there is feeling of
eager anticipation for the time when
the large natural history collection.
which the late Mr.. w. s. Stratton pur-
chased for the college, and which lies
stored away in the basement of Co
burn library. can really be put on ex-
hibition in the college museum An
other recent gift to Colorado College
is the extensive and carefully ar
ranged herbarium of the late Edward
Tatnall, its collector, now presented
by his daughter and assistant. Miss
Mary II. Tatnall The collection en-
braces some 81 900 species and yarie-
ties, belonging to 2,322 genera and
100 orders: and among the things
which make the collection especially
valuable should be mentioned the cat
aiogue which fills 600-page volume
and overflows into second The en-.
try contains the full name of each
species or variety and gives the year
IN which the specimen was obtained
as well as its source. The collectors
named number sixty-hve and come
from twenty-tliree different states. be.
side Canada, England and Sweden.
The herbarium illustrates chiefly
however, the fora of our own coun.
try, and is especially valuable for the
completeness with which 1t covers ali
the main groups Of the plant world
As an aid to the botanical work OF
the college and to consulting botan.
lists, the collection will be OF great
and permanent value.

ROCK ISLAND REACHING OUT.
Will Build 265-Mile Extension From
Pueblo Southwark to Santa
Rosa, New Mexico.

Colorado Springs. Nov. 2.-It is re-
ported that within thirty days the
Chicago Rock Island & Pacific rail
road will commence the construction
of a 265-mile extension from Pueblo
south to Trinidad, thence over the
Ration mountains to Santa Rosa, New
Mexico, where it will strike the Rock
Island branch hich runs from Liberal,
Kansas, and which connects with the
Southern Pacific system at FL Paso,
Texas.
Several days ago J. F. Cary, chief
engineer of the Rock Island system.
was in the Springs to begin active OPP
erations toward this end. but owing to
the failure of the chief roadmaster to
meet him here, Mr. Carey left the
city without accomplishing anything.
He will return shortly with other high
officials of the road and work will be
commenced
During his stay here Mr.. Carey said
that all the surveys had been made.
and that the distance was 265 miles
The Rock Island is anxious to get in
to the Las Animas county coal beds.
owing to the present expense of Sc
curing coal that has been transported
over other lines. The second reason
for the new line is the enormous
profit in the tourist business between
California and Colorado. it being stat
ed that eventually the Rock Island
will build a road from Santa Rosa TO
San Diego, California, the company
having already opened negotiations
for survey between the two points.
Another projected move is the
building of its own line from Colorado
Springs to Pueblo, this forty-fve-miIe
run at present being made over mo
Denver g. Rio Grande tracks.
