ment. But All Seem Anxious for
Some Decisive Action.

Some Decisive Action.
Washington, June 20.-The House to-
day non concurred, in the Senate
amendment to the Nicaragua canal bill
and agreed to the conference ask for
by the Senate. Messrs. Hepburn of
Iowa. Fletcher of Minnesota and Davey
of Louisiana were appointed conterees
on behalf of the House. This action
was taken on the recommendation of
the Committee on Interstate and For
eign Commerce.
Mr.. Burton of Ohio advised none OF
the friends of the Spooner amendment
to object.
Il regard this" he said, "as mere
formal action. / have the assurance of
the gentleman from Iowa that every
proper effort will be made to bring the
matter back to the House at the ear
Hest possible moment, when those who
desire to do so can support a motion to
concur"
And trust" said Mr.. Williams of
Mississippi. that no friend of the
Nicaragua route will object / hope
that the conferees of the House and
Senate will fight for that route to the
last ditch"
Soon after the House had sent the
Dlli 10 conference, reports gained CIR
culation among members that there
was not likely to be a protracted
struggle in conference. and that the
Senate amendment would probably be
the basis of the ultimate agreement.
One of the House confsrees. Mr..
Fletcher of Minnesota. frankly stated
to his associates that he thought an
agreement would be reached on the
Panama amendment. Chairman Hep
burn was not prepared. however. to
concede that the fight was over. The
Democratic conferee. Judge Davey of
Louisiana was counted on as strongly
favorable to the Nicaragua route. At
the same time the lateness of the SEES
sion and the prevailing desire to avoid
further complications in the Senate.
led to a rather general feeling AMONG
the members of the House that The
Senate amendment had something of
an advantage in the conference.

mas Nothing to Say About Coming
Convention and Little AbOut Other
Matters.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, June 2O.-This was
one of the quietest days around strike
headquarters since the anthracite
miners suspended operations six weeks
ago. Nothing developed and neither
President Mitchell nor the coal COM
pany officials had anything to say re-
garding the situation. Reports from
the entire region were to the effect that
all the mining towns were very quiet
and that the 100000 idle men and boys
are keeping away from the collieries.
Inc local unions continue to hold meet
lngs Tor the purpose of transacting
business in connection with carrying on
the strike in their localities, and to give
relief where it is needed.
Inc hurry occasioned by the call for
a special national convention at In
dianapolis has entirely subsidized. No
information on what the probable ac-
ton of the convgention will be could
be had here to-day. News from the
West is eagerly awaited by the great
body of strikers.
President MitchelHs attention was
called to-day to the explosion in the
Williamson, w. Va. mine in which five
men were reported killed by someone
throwing dynamite down the shaft.
The national leader said he knew no
more about the affair than what he
Saw in the newspapers and therefore
had nothing to say. He was non-com-
initial when asked whether he had
started an investigation as to the cause
of the explosion.

by her neighbors that she had her
household goods moved from North

lance away. When she went to the
house this afternoon she says she found
it and all it's contents burned. The
company is investigating her story.
