A NEW CITY HALL.

The probable recommendation OF
the building committee Of the board
of education that the school buildirc
at Fifth and Court streets be sold is
doubtless a good one. The site is one
of the most valuable in the city, and
as 1t will soon be useless as school =
the opinion of the committee, moth
lug better could be done than for the
city to purchase it. Tine present city
hall is too small and is about the
most unattractive public building that
could be found anywhere, with the
possible exception of our city hospital
The several new buildings that are to
be erected here in the near future will
throw completely into eclipse the city
hall, which is . common, barn-like
structure, thoroughly ont Of place and
date as the Principal public building
in a city the size of Paducah. AS the
finer buildings go up its rSliness ard
insignifcance will be brought out into
stronger relief, and the city mighs as
we'll take time by the forelock and
buy the school property block away,
and convert it into city hail, or tear
it down and erect an entirely new
building There is now not enough
room in the present city hall, and
some Of the offices will have to be
established in the dwelling houuse
adjoining. There will never be a"y
less need of office room than there 20
now, but will soon be much more.
The present structure is an antiquat-
ed affair, heated By stoves and with
few conveniences. The city should
take steps at once to get the school
properly, or some equally as desira-
BILE, for there will likely be more than
Que ready to gobble it up when it is
placed on the market.

des picable. These soldiers need some
display of fairness and friendliness
now far more than they will years
hence. The flowers that may be strewn
on their graves in tine years to come,
will afford them no satisfaction, while
fair treatment and encouragement
now may go a long ways towards

consequently of more service to their
country. President Roosevelt truth
fully said:
Just ct this moment the army of
the United States, led by men who
served among you in the great war,
is carrying to completion a small but
peculiarly trying and difficult war in
which is involved not only the honor
of the flag, but the triumph Of civ
ilization over forces which stand for
the black chaos Of savagery and bar
barism. The task has not been rs
difficult or as important as yours,
but, oh, my comrades, the men in
the uniform of the United States,
who have for the last three years
patiently and unoomplainingly cham.

THE PRESIDENTS ADDRESS.

President Roosevelt's address at Ar
lington cemetery yesterday was re-
plete with the sound, straightforward
sentiments that he never fails to for
chilly express on ali occasions. 1t was a
memorial address appropriate to Dec
Grafton day, it touched. principally on
the army and was in memory of those
of it who gave up all that was dear to
them in the cause of right as they saw
it. 1t was therefore not inopportune
to dwell to some extent on treatment
Of the present soldiers lwho are fight
ing and in some instances dying for
their country. We annually hold SER
vices to pay tribute to the memory Of
the brave men who fought and bled
for our country. 1t is but meet that

Reticence Of the Participants Weigh
ing Heavily on Business and In
dustrfaI Interests.
CRISIS POSSIBLE THIS WEEK
OPERATORS PROBABLY WILL At
TEMPT TO BREAK THE STRIKE.
Some of the CoIIieries I'm the Wilkes
barre Region to be Opened with
NOnunson Miners.

WILKESBARRE, Pa, Sept. l3.-Tired and
worn out after his flying trip to Philadel-
phia and Harrisburg. President Mitchell
returned to Wikesbarre this morning. He
said the interview with Governor Stone
was a pleasant one. The strike situation
was discussed in all it's phases. but the
Governor had no proposition TO make for
settlement of the strike. Asked whether
he thought the Governor would call an ex-
ira session OF the Legislature. Mr.. Mitchell
said he did not know. President Mitchell
went to Scranton tonight. He again said
that he had no statement to make regard
ing the conference.
The reticence of the chief officer of the
miners union weighs heavily on business
and industrial interests In the strike re-
gion. which were in hope the meeting be-
tween the Governor and President Mitchell
would result in some plan for a settlement
of the strike The silence of Mr.. Mitchell
is interpreted to mean that the Harrisburg
conference was barren OF results.
There is more or less activity at all the
collieries in this region tonight, and 1t is
said that some of the companies will make
desperate efforts TO resume work at many OF
the collieries on Monday. Fifty men were
sent to the Conyngham mine of the Della
ware & Hudson Company tonight. The
company expects to start work with a good
force of miners on Monday. The coal OPP
orators say the conference between Gov
ernor Stone and President Mitchell was
merely a friendly talk and that neither
party to the conference issued a PROPOSE
tion. The operators think the crisis viii
come next week and that break in the
ranks of the strikers is among the poss:bil-
tiles.
At strike headquarters President Mitch
ellis subordinates maintain that the COM
panies are in no better position to start
their collieries now than they were three
months ago. and that there will be no break
in the ranks of the strikers.

governmental and disciplinary powers over
the members that are not possessed by
stock corporations where money or property
rights are directly involved. The general
power to pass upon the right of property in
the margins in question, however, is held
judicial power, which never can be consid-
cred to have been delegated or confirmed by
dubious complication.
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 excluded or ousted of
jurisdiction by intendment." With some
sarcasm the court adds: 1.-The mastery in
genuity of the plan contrived to prevent
appeal to the common-law courts of the
State commands our admiration. Think of
the long time of operation that has proved
the scheme a successful one. The loser who
may feel himself aggrieved and who may
know himself to have been wronged by the
operation of a corner, or else, at law, can
only sue to get his money back. Even that
remedy is by the resourcefulness of the
scheme abridged. For it is possible for him
to do even that only after he has an award
or adjudication against him by this Board
of Trade committee or tribunal"

Statement by Senator Thomas G. Platt
After a Conference of Leaders
Yesterday.
BRYAN NOT YET REFORMED
STILL BITTER AGAINST RICH MEN
AND CAPTAINS OF INDUSTRY.
Speech i'm Which He Declared He
Would Put MilIionafres i'm Stripes
If He Was President.

NEW YORK, Sept. 13.-There was con-
ference of prominent New York State Re-
publicans to-day and at its close United
States Senator Platt gave out as the chief
result of the meeting this statement: 1T
was decided to indorse Mr.. Roosevelt and
his administration and as far as in our
power to indorse him for 1904"
Senator Platt said that no other subject
was discussed at the meeting. He ad-
mitted that there had been some opposi-
ton to the resolution proposing in
dorsement, but the opposition was in the
minority and the final decision was prac-
tically unanimous.
1.-The Endorsement OF President Roose-
velt,' said George w. Dunn, chairman of
the Republican State committee, was gone
over extensively. 1t was the unanimous
opinion that it was not only wise to indorse
the administration Of Mr.. Roosevelt, but
to indorse him for 1904" Colonel Dunn said
that the composition of the State ticket
had not come before the conference.

interests as he does his he will soon be out

In discussing national politics, he SAID
that If he had been elected he would have
put stripes on the millionaires who rob the
people by unlawful combinations, and that
the trusts could not have dictated the ap-
pointment of an attorney general and they
could not have run the attorney general.
The President should be prosecuting the
trusts instead of taking his speaking tours.
There was a time when Mr.. Hanna SAID
there were no trusts. but now all admitted
that there were trusts. We have 1nJunc-

withstanding the fact that Senator Lodge

SYCAMORE HILL GUESTS
III. c. PAYNE, DIR. ALBERT SHAW
AND COL. ARTHUR LEE.
First Named Discussed Politics with
the Presfdent-The Presidents
Proposed Reception on Monday.

OYSTER BAY, L. l., Sept. 13-The Pres
ident had as his guests at luncheon Post
master General Payne, DR.. Albert Shaw,
editor Of the Review of Reviews, and Col.
and Mrs. Arthur Lee. Colonel Lee Is a
member of the British House of Parlia-
ments and was formerly the military at
tache of the British embassy in this coun-
try. In that capacity he was present at
the battle of Santiago. Postmaster Gen.
eral Payne discussed departmental affairs
with the President. A number of decisions
were reached which will be announced
in the near future from Washington The
coming campaign and the general political
situation also were talked over. Mr.. Payne
left on an afternoon train for New York.
Colonel Lee is an intimate friend OF the
President and his visit was purely social.
He will sail on Tuesday for England
Everything is in readiness for the recep-
tion to be rendered by the President to the
people of Nassau county Monday. The rain
of the past two days has damaged the dec
extent, but this fact will be overlooked If
Monday should prove TO be good day.
Several hundred large American flags will
be. stretched across the road leading to
Sycamore Hill. At the entrance TO the
Roosevelt home a large banner will be
stretched bearing the word welcome,
pected to be in the harbor on Monday.
among them those of Frank j. Gould and
George Wilmot. 1t is expected that large
parties will come over on these yachts.
When the President issued invitations
for this reception he thought that only
few neighbors would come, his idea being
to shake hands with the people about here
who have known him for many years. Now
that so many people are coming it will be
necessary to make the reception a more
formal affair than had been at first in
tended, but 1t is stated that IL is not in
tended as public function, simply being
designed as chance by which the Presi-
dents neighbors may have an opportunity
of seeing him and shaking hands with
him.
1t is said that the ministers will request
the saloon keepers TO close their places
Secretary Cortelyou left to-day for Wash
ington, where he will complete arrange
ments for the Presidents Northwestern
trip The itinerary will be announced in
a few days.

FATAL RAILWAY WRECKS
AN ENGINEER AND TWO FIREMEN
KILLED IN COLORADO.
Fireman Mangled to Death and Sew
eral Passengers Injured in Missouri
Result of Collisions.

DENVER, Col, Sept 13.-Santa Fe pas
senger train No. COS, known as the newspa-
per train, which left Denver this morning
at $50 bound for Colorado Springs, collided
with a freight train at Struby, small sta
tion several miles south of Littleton, and
three members of the passenger train crew
were killed and another, perhaps, fatally
injured.
Dead.-Mack Barnhart, engineer; j. N.
Pettingill, fireman; John Rogers, fireman.
Seriously Injured.-Archie Stewart, engi-
neer
Some of the passengers were badly
shaken up and bruised, but so far as known
none was killed or seriously injured.
The freight, when ascending a steep
grade on a side track at Struby to let the
passenger train pass, parted, and seventeen
or eighteen heavily loaded cars started
back toward the approaching passenger
train which was drawn by two engines.
The engineers of the passenger train re-
versed and tried to back out of thelway of
the runaway cars, but did not succeed
In the crash both passenger engines were
trown into the ditch, and eight cars were
piled on them. The engineers and fremen
were buried under the wreckage.
