Secretary Shaw has made arrange

the treasury holdings. He has had
list prepared of those national banks
throughout the country which held
free or pledged bonds at the date of
their last report and has made inquiry
for others. After making allowance
for changed conditions since last re-
port he expects this will release at
least $4,000,000. He has sent notice
to all such that If they will send these
bonds to the treasurer of the United
States in sums of $4,000 or more they
will be designated as temporary de.
positories and the fact value of the
bonds will be deposited with them to
the credit of the treasurer of the Unit

in preference to designating deposi-

are extremely heavy at this particular

field, miner, succeeded In crawling
over the fallen coal and slate after the
explosion to the lights of the rescue
party and was taken out alive, al
though badly burned and nearly suf-
focated by the gas and smoke. The
explosion is said to have been caused
by an accumulation of gas catching on
fire from the lamp of miner who was
going to work. and this in turn fired
six kegs of blasting powder that had
been stored back in the mines.
The explosion knocked down all of
the brattices for quarter of mile
back towards the mine entrance. thus
cutting out all of the air from the
men imprisoned behind the debris.
There was small gas explosion In
this mine on Saturday last, and Mine

FOR A GREAT LABOR PART
Big Plan to Enlist Workingmen Into
Semi.Political Organization.

Chicago. Sept. 16.-A movement for
enlisting the hosts of workingmen
throughout the United States into
semi-political organization has been
launched in this city, says the Post.
A platform said to embrace the econ
omical and political ideas of labor
leaders and covering the whole labor
situation has been prepared and will
be presented for approval next week
to the Chicago Federation of Labor.
The platform demands the abolition
of the so-called political machine, the
establishment of government prima-
ries where votes may be cast "for
nominees as citizens and not as men,
bers of a machine" and the initiative
and referendum. It favors the right of
recalling representatives who are out
of touch with voters. Relief from the
trusts is suggested in the plan for "the
passage of an amendment to the prac-
tice laws of every state and the fed
eral government when the litigants
may bring up. in any suit in which

GRAIN CORNERS IMPOSSIBLE.
important Decision Of the Chicago Cir.
cult Court.


Chicago, Sept. 15.-Corners in grain
are forever rendered practically impos-
sible by a decision handed down by
Judge Chytraus in the circuit court if
sustained by a higher court. The case
was for an injunction asked by Waite,
Thorburn & Co. against prominent
commission houses in the recent July
oats corner. The most important rul-
ing is that the Chicago board of trade
loses the power to pass on property
rights where margins are involved, de-
nying It's authority to discipline men,
bers for refusing to put up called mar.
gins.
Regardless of the fact that the com.
plainants agreed to be bound by the
rules which provide for settlements of
disagreements the court ruled that
they were not bound. that the arrogat.
ing of such power to such body was
against public policy, and that ut
would be introducing sovereignties
within sovereignty for the function
of constituting law"
The court goes into great detail to
learn the merits of the case. speaks at
some length of the operations upon the
board of trade, of the benefits to the
community from the institution and
the great influence it exerts upon the
commerce of the world. It holds that
as corporation not for profit it pos.
sesses governmental and disciplinary
powers over the members that are not
possessed by stock corporations. where
money property rights are directly in
volved. The general power to pass
upon the right of property In the mar.
gins in question, however. is held a
judicial power, which never can be
considered to have been delegated or
confirmed by dubious implication.
THE ordinary courts of justice" said
the court. Constituting one Of the
branches of our government, ought not
to be and should not submit to being
