GROWERS PLANS.
FORMER PRESIDENT TO LAY
Low UNTIL DAY BEFORE
CONVENTION.

Put-in-Bay, o., May 1.-THE Ken
tuckians, who are stopping at Middle
Bass Island, and among whom there
are some prominent politicians, spring
this story as to Grover Cleveland's in
tentions regarding the presidential
nomination.:
Cleveland will make no statement
about his position until shortly before
the convention. Meanwhile, in antic-
ipation Of his candidacy for the nomi-
nation, a sentiment for him will be
nursed by the Democrats who are op-
posed to Bryan. Cleveland will then
declare himself positively out of the
race, and will indorse Judson Harmon
Of Cincinnati for the nomination.
Said Harmon last night;
81 can't say anything about the sto-
ry ct this time. Before a presidential
year the friends OF every man of prom
inence trot him out"
Harmon is Cleveland's chum at the
Island. They occupy the same boat
while fishing every day. --.

FOR AID IN SECURING MORE
LIBERAL PENSION LAWS.

Chattanooga, May 14-At the regu-
lar meeting of N. b. Forrest camp,
Confederate Veterans, q resolution
was passed praising the Grand Army
posts of Chattanooga. This action was
prompted by the recent support given
the Confederate Veterans OF Tennessee
in their efforts to secure more liberal
pension laws from the legislature.
While several of the bills to increase
the pensions to Confederate veterans
were pending at the recent session of
the legislature the local Grand Army
Republic posts passed resolutions urg.
ing the legislature, in the interest of
the Confederate veterans, TO pass these
In consequence OF this and
other influences the legislature enact
ed some pension legislation which is
considered of great benefit to the Con.

Railroads Propose Plan to Ar
bitrate Differences.
They Claim the Demands of Labor
Over the Country Are General
and Continuous.
ARBITRATION is PROPOSED

Chicago, May IA movement has
been begun by the arrangements of
Chicago railroads to compel labor or
CARNATIONS to agree to submit differ.
ences to arbitration whenever negotia-
tions between roads and employees fail
to enc in agreements. The lead in
the movement is apparently being tax
en- by the Rock Island, the Burlington
and one or two other strong Western
lines. Thus far, however, the propo-
sition regarding ultimate arbitration
has been either refused or lodged by
labor organizations.
1t was pointed out today that the
demands of labor had become so gen.
eral and continuous that it was no
longer possible for the operating Off
cials to spend weeks in doubtful con-
ference. The arbitration clause is
therefore being proposed with view
of insuring results and increasing the
probability of both sides beginning
negotiations with a case which they
are not afraid to submit to the public.
II the railroads cannot induce the la
Dor organizations to agree to the ulti-
mate arbitration plan II is likely that
before long . general arbitration board
will be selected to represent all rail
roads territorially allied.
One general manager stated that
the time he and assistant operating
officials had been compelled to devote
to conferences with labor committees
during the past six months had in re-
Atty been an almost constant menace
to the safety of the travelling public.
ut is not stretch of TRUTH" said
the general manager of one road. Ito
say that we no longer have the time
to see that our roads are operated to
the standard of efficiency that should
prevail"

Secret Meeting Held at Jackson-Offi.
GERS to Step Rowdyism
Here.
MINOR RAILROAD MENTION

Railroad men coming from jackson,
Tenn.say that secret meeting was held
there by the Illinois Central men who
are members of one or the other Of the
railroad mems orders, and that it is
believed that they resolved to refuse
to haul any of the Mobile and Ohio
freight. The report cannot be given
as authentic, but il seems to be the
conoensus of opinion that that was the
conclusion arrived at. That secret
meeting was held is not denied, but
when the results are to be made known
or what they are are matters for con-
lecture only. 1t seems to be generally
agreed that the action of the Illinois
Central employees, as forecasted above,
is what will really happen in the
event of the Mobile and Ohio holding
out against the men, but they are I'M
decided as to when to start to put
the screws to them

HOW FIRES MAY START.
Several Things That Will Cause SpOn.
taneOus Combustion.

Damp lampblack will iguite from the suns
rays The same Can be said of cotton waste
moist with lard or other animal oil. Lamp.
black and little oil or water will under GER
ain conditions ignite spontaneously. Nitric
acid and charcoal create spontaneous COM
bustiop. New printers ink on paper when
Ia contact with steam pipe will ignite
quickly. Boiled linseed oil and turpentlne
in equal parts on cotton waste will Ignite In a
few hours under mild heat and will In time
create enough heat to Ignite spontaneously,
says Cassier's Magazine. Biturnnous coal
should not be stored where II will come in
contact with wood partitions or columns or
against warm boiler settings or steam pipes.
Tnis coal should not be very deep If 1t Is 10 be
kept In storage for long period. II piled In
the basement OF building II should be shal.
low and free from moisture and under good
ventilation. That liable to absorb moisture
should be burned first II on fire small
quantity OF water showered on this kind OF
coal chokes 1t and retards any great supply
the overhaulng of the pipe. Iron chips. fl.
ings or turnings should cot be stored in a
shop in wooden boxes. The only waste
which is not infrequently thrown among
them adds TO the danger OF fire from this
source. The sweeping from the machine
shop, II kept on hand, should never be placed
over iron shavings. This mass OF dlsinte
grated iron is enough to incite heat and com.
bustion. Iron and steel filings and turnings
when mixed with oil will ignite spontaneous
ly after becoming damp. A steam pipe
against wood will cause the latter to ignite
spontaneously after being carbonized, par.
ticuarly If superheated steam entets tho
pipe, thus Increasing the temperature.
