DEMANDS SEIZURE OF MINES.
Detroit Convention Passes Drastic Sc

Detroit Convention Passes Drastic Sc
ries of Resolutions.
AS a further indication of the stress Of
popular feeling on the strike question the
Detroit conference has it's significance
and may have its influence. The object
Of the conference was to find means OF
getting coal" Most of the various lee
concentrations made look to remedies
which will prevent the recurrence of q
similar situation later on. The most rad
ical plans offered, proposing that the gov
eminent place the operation of the mines
under receivership or assert the right
of eminent domain, would themselves in
volve delay and probably a special ses-
sion of Congress. The approval of these
plans, however, conveys a hint as to the
depth of popular feeling and the extent
to which the public is ready to go If
goaded to extreme action by the indef-
mite continuance of the coal famine.
The convention adopted a strong rcso-
luton calling for the seizure of the coal
mines in Pennsylvania and their opera
ton by the State in the interests of the
public. The resolutions follow:
Resolved That we respectfully petit
ton the Governor of Pennsylvania, UNI
less the strike is speedily settled, to call
for a special session of the Pennsylvania
Legislature and recommend to it the pas
sage of a law providing for the condem-
nation by the State at a fair and just
compensation of all the coal-carrying rail-
roads in Pennsylvania, and of sufficient
Of the anthracite coal lands to enable the
State to operate the anthracite coal mines
SO as to supply the demands of the Amer
lean public, and pending the ascertain
ment of their value to take immediate
possession of such coal mines by receiv-
ers to be appointed by the court pursuant
to statute, who shall at once take pos
session of said mines and railroads and
operate the same.
And be it further resolved, That we
respectfully request the President of the
United States to call a special session
of the House of Representatives and rec
ommend to it the appointment of c>2n-
mittee to investigate the cause and origin
of the present disastrous strike and to
place the blame therefor upon the respon-
sible parties, with full power to call for
all books, papers, deeds, charters, pay
rolls, stock books, and other documents
and testimony tending to throw light up
on the present management and owner
ship of the coal-carrying roads and an
thracite coal mines of Pennsylvania for
use in litigation and other public pur-
pose that the State of Pennsylvania or
federal government may hereafter insti-
tute."
Another section of the resolutions as
serts: 1.-THE government that possesses the
right of eminent domain can and should
exercise that right in behalf of the peo-
pie when by such exercise great public
wrong can be righted and great public
suffering averted."

EXPRESS CAR LOOTED.
Burlington Train Is Held Up Near
Lincoln, Neb,

|
| Lincoln, Neb.
-Four expert highwaymen, armed,
masked and equipped with stock Of
dynamite, held up the Burlington st.
Louis-Portland night express four miles
west of Lincoln, Neb., before daylight
Saturday morning. The big safe in the
Adams express car was shattered with
couple of sticks of dynamite, and all the
valuable contents tumbled into leather
bag. and carried off. The value OF the
haul is not known, but it is placed any
where from $1,000 to $4,000.
The robbers devoted all their energies
to the express car. Other coaches were
not invaded nor passengers molested. The
robbery was one of the bOldest and most
cleverly carried out in recent history.
No one believes the bandits were novices.
When the train left Lincoln for the
West it was a few minutes late. \ mile
beyond West Lincoln, or two miles from
the city, as it sped down hill, Engineer
\. L. Clayburg saw a red lantern near
bridge. The long train came to stand
still and from out the shadow leaped a
masked robber. Springing upon the en-
gine he thrust a revolver into the face
of the engineer and gave his orders. they
were obeyed. When second r0bber had
uncoupled the express car from the train,
the third, who had gone to protect the
rear, came forward and with the second
man boarded the express car. At the
word of the man in the engine, the loco
motive and the first two cars moved
away. Two miles further on, at whist
ling post, one mile from Woodlawn, the
train was stopped. In the darkness the
figure of a buggy and team of horses
were seen.
Assistance was at once given by the
man in the buggy. While the robber who
guarded the engine men closely watched
his wards, the other three made hasty
preparations for the explosion. Dynamite
was brought from the buggy placed on
the safe and the fuses were lighted. In
a few minutes the work of lootinS the
car had been completed and the money
had been deDOsited in the buggy.

Autumn Coloring of Trees.

There is a certain amount of mystery
about the autumn coloring of the foliage
If hardy trees and shrubs in this coun-
try. We have never yet been able to
a ascertain with any degree of exactness
the conditions that produce the richest
and brightest colors. Probably the con-
ditions most favorable generally are pro-
yided by a good growing season-that is,
q warm, moist summer-followed by a
drv. sunny autumn. But it frequently
honpens after what one would regard as
favorable seasons that species fail to col
or we'll, though considered as very reli-
able in this matter. Probably one set of
conditions does not suit all trees and
shrubs. in this respect. To produce the
coloration of the leaf just before it falls
certain subtle chemical changes in its
composition take place. And to bring
about these changes certain conditions in
regard to sunlight, temperature and rlois-
tnre are necessary. But in climate
such as that Of Britain, where the sea-
sons are never alike two years together,
we can never hope to obtain the same
regularity of autumnal coloring that
