BUILDING 1,050 FEET HIGH.
Fifty-Story Structure, With Theaters
Far Up, Proposed for St. Louis.

A ifty-story building. towering 1850
feet above the surface Of the street. oc-
cupying an entire prominent downtown
block, is a local possibility. The proposed
location Of this skyscraper is on the block
bounded by Sixth. Seventh, Olive. and
Pine Streets. This block is now occu-
pied wholly by old buildings. which would
be razed to make room for the tallest
skyscrsper ever erected.
The first twelve stories Of the building
are intended TO be permanent, but that
portion Of the building towering would be
of a temporary character as q worlds
fair attraction. The prop osed building
would serve a multiplicity OF purposes.
Great department stores would occupy
the lower floors, and there would be the
aters and music halls SO high UP in the
air that the rumble from the streets be-
low could not be heard.-St. Louis Globe

any bitterness they may have tasted in
their dose of defeat

his admirers and showed the athletic

''Anti-Saloon League, gave out the fol-
lowing statement yesterday with refer.
;ence to the attitude of the league on
the army canteen:
"lf such reports as that published
from General Funston are correct, two
things are apparent. First, the cam
teen or beer-selling army saloons SO de-
,bauched the men in the service that
these conditions OF drunkenness and
disorder exist. not by reason OF IT'D
abolition, but because It's presence dur.
Ding the twelve years has had demor-
'alizing effect on officers and men; sec.

cannot maintain discipline without d

fncompetency. Esll

WYOMING RAILROADS.
Plans and Rumors Of Plans for Build
ina Many Nav Lines.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Oct. Present In
dications are that next year will be one
Of railroad construction auQ improve
nent in Wyoming. In addition to plans
for improvement and extension that
have been announced there are = num-
ber of rumors OF work which will be
done which cannot now be substan-
tiated. Chief Of the work mapped out
is the double tracking Of the entire
Wyoming division of the Union Pacific.
Work will commence In Cheyenne early
in the spring and the number of men
employed will discount the cutoff days
On Sherman hill, when the rifk-raff Of
the country came to Wyoming on con-
tract labor. oe
Then the Union Pacific will undoubt-
edly build into the Grand Lllcampment
country. The survey for this line has
been marked with 5000 grade stak.s to
the mile, a corps Of surveyors being In
the field the entire summer. The Over
land will have to build within q short
time to get ahead Of the Laramie,
Hahn's Peak & Pacific and the South
ern Wyoming Railway Company. both
Of which were organized to build to
the Grand Encampment section. and
ono OF which, the Laramie, Hahn'G
Peak & Pacific. will not pause at Cen
tennial, but will push on to Gold Hill
Immediately, and from there through
the southern part Of the Grand En-
campment district into Routt county.
Colorado, that Is unless headed of by
the Union Pacific. Either this COM
pany or the Union Pacific will eventu-
ally connect with the Moflat road near
Steamboat Springs. ft
The Burlington undoubtedly contem-
plates an extension Of its Cody branch
through the Big Horn basin and to
Camp Irwin, on the northern edge Of
the Shoshone reservation. There could
have been no object In building to
Cody, but q line through the basin
would IN short time cause to grow up
q tributary country business that would
more than pay ample interest on the
money invested.
At the rate the Hendersons are put
tinE down wells in the Lander field 1T
tkey carry out their announced inten-,
tiony they should begin the construc-
ton of line from Casper or the Union

Wilkeabarre. Pa. Oct THE confer
snce between Mr.. Mitchell and his dis
trict presidents continued until 11:15
D. M, and at IL: 80 O'Clock. five minutes
before the national president left for
Buffalo. he gave to the press the fol-
lowing statement. which was hurrtedly
prepared after he returned from Phila-
delphia last night:
"Wilkeebarre, Pa, Oct. Ito Dis
trict Secretaries and All Mine Workers
in the Anthracite Field-You have, NO
doubt, read in the daily papers the pro-
ceedinGs Of the conference at the White
House last Friday. in which your ona-
cars proposed an immediate resumption
Of work II the operations would agree
In the strike to the decision OF the
tribunal named by him. You have
noted the reply Of the president Of the
coal carrying railroads, In which they
responded to our overtures by denounc-
ing the union, its members and o1icers
In the most vehement and malicious
manner possible. They also declared
that large majority Of the strikers
would return to work II given military
protection, and they demanded that the
President send United States troops to
the coal fields.
In order to demonstrate to the
people Of our country that the state
ments OF the operators are unfounded
and that the mine workers are law
abiding citizens, the officers Of all To-
cal unions should call mass meetings
of all men on strike, union and non
union, such meetings to be held in
each mining town at 2 o'clock Wednes-
day afternoon, October Sth. We know
that the mine workers are not re-
strained from going to work by fear Of
bodily harm, and II this is the senu-'
ment prevailing at the meeting, resolu-
tions should be adopted emphatcally
declaring the statements Of the opera
tors to be untrue.
I'VE also advise that acts of lawless-
ness by the coal and iron police and by
strikers be denounced and the services
Of members of the union rendered to
the local authorities to preserve law
and order.
Great care should be exercised that
those on coal strike do not permit
themselves to be provoked by the coal
and iron police into the commission of
overt acts. The operators, failing to
break the strike and deprive you Of
your well-earned victory. are now at
tempting to array public sentiment
against you by making false claims
that a reign of terror exists in the coal
fields. Be steadfast and true while
this struggle for living wages and
American conditions of employment is
going on. and we have no hesitancy in
saying that victory will. be achieved IN
the near future. The heart OF the Ma
ton beats in sympathy with you and
all good citizens favor your cause.
DO not fail to have resolutions
drafted in plain, temperate language
and telegraph them at our expense to
President Mitchell's headquarters inn
mediately on the adjournment Of
meetings.
