| who were not delegates. One delegate
took the ground that many of those in
the hall were strangers, 1--WE don't
| know whether Baer, Olyphant, or John
| Markle Is in the hall ready to vote on
| the proposition to come before the

| journ. After some speechmaking, Presi-
dent Mitchell again Strengthened out
matters by requesting all those. except
| ing newspaper men, who did not have
| credentials. to leave the hall About
| half OF those present retired.
The question then reverted to the
motion to adopt the recommends tons
| of the officers to call off the strike and
refer all questions at issue to President
Roosevelt's commission. The debate
was resumed, the steam men leading,
! but before the discussion had proceed
ed many minutes a delegate demanded
| that the credentials of all those in the
building be examined to see that no
one was In the place not entitled to
admittance. This was done and then a
motion was made to reconsider the vote
by which the newspaper men were
permitted TO remain in the hail. The
motion was defeated. President Mitch
ell then requested the correspondents $
not To mention the name OF any dele
gate in his report on the ground that
1t might injure him in obtaining work.
This ended the debate on the CORES
pondents.
Plea for the Pumpmen.
The question again reverted to that
OF reinstatement Of the men. and there
was no further interruption in the dis
cussion on this phase Of the situation.
A dozen speeches were made for and
against the question of some specific
assurance that the men would get back
their places IL they returned to work.
1t was argued by one delegate that the
calling out of the engineers. tlreinen
and pumpmen was mistake, but as
good union men they obeyed. He
wanted the union to stand by those
union men now and not turn its back
on them. Another delegate from the
southern district declared that the or
ganiZation should not send the men
back to work until all of them were
assured of work.
IF we are going to die" he declared.
"let us all die together" The only
delegate in the convention who is also
member of one of the railway unions
also demanded that something he done
for the men who may fail to get back
their former positions
The positions for miners and mine
laborers are numerous enough to give
nearly all of them employment. he
said but those for engineers. fremen
and pumprunners are not 50 numerous.
At this point ii delegate arose and
asked President Mitchell to express his
views cn the subject. He Immediately
responded. and made one Of the most
important addresses he has been called
upon to make during the past five

and every word was listened tn with

TRADE REPORT.

New York;. G.. Dun &c Co.'S
Weekly Review of Trade last week
says:
Peace in South Africa has greatly
improved the outlook. Foreign indus
trial markets will quickly benefit by
the development of that country,
while a return to active gold mining
will have a helpful influence in none
tary circles. Owing to the present ex-
ceptional home consumption produc-
ers in this country may not be able
to take advantage of the opportunity
Immediately, but even the indirect eff
fects must be beneficial. Domestic
conditions have still but the one
drawback of labor disputes, which
have reduced the earning power of a
large force. Outside the limitations
of this influence there is little cause
for complaint. Orders are large and
distribution is less interrupted by the
shortage of cars. Railway earnings
for May show an increase of 6S per
cent over last year and ia per cent
over 1900.
Satisfactory weather in the leading
producing regions had a depressing
influence on grain quotations, and last
weeks advance was lost. Cash prices
were slow to react, owing to the ex-
tremely strong statistical position, but
the next crop options fully reflected
the program at the farms.
Failures during the week in the
United States were 218, against 1914
the previous week.
