Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen
Against Sympathetic Strikes
and Contract Breakers.

Denver, Col, May 3O.-The first
positive declaration of large labor
body against the sympathetic strike
has been made by the national con-
vention of the Brotherhood of Rail
way Trainmen in the form of reso-
luton which received unanimous APP
proval, based upon sentiments ex-
pressed by Grand Master Morrissey.
He said in part:
"The question of its ability to pro-
tect its working agreements is now a
prominent factor in determining the
responsibility of a labor organiza-
ton. The organization that repre-
sents employees in making an ar
rangement that is acceptable to them
and shrinks responsibility when in
dividuals disturb the peaceful rela-
tions between employees and employ
er is not of the type that will com
mand confidence. We predict the
time will come when we will regard
the contract breaker, whether mem
Der or nonmember, with as much con-
tempt as we now do the scab."

London, May 3O.-On the motion be-

Charles Dixie advanced liberaD raised
a discussion Friday on the fiscal
views recently enunciated by Colonial
Secretary Chamberlain. Sir Charles
maintained that Mr.. Chamberlain had

opposed to all the traditions and to the

in parliament.
He considered that while the policy
of the government as outlined at the

now suggested.

PRESIDENT IN UTAH.
Greeted by an Immense Crowd In
Salt Lake City, Including 5000
School Children.

Salt Lake City, May 3O.-The spe-
cial train bearing President Roose-
welt and party pulled into the Ore
gon Short Line station from the
north at $3.50 Friday morning, amid
the clamor of locomotive and factory
whistles, the shrill yells of hundreds
of cattle punchers and sheepmen and
the enthusiastic cheering of several
thousand persons congregated in the
railroad yards and along the streets
leading from the depot.
AS the president stepped from the
train he was met by Gov. Wells, May
or Thompson, Col. J. w. Bubb and
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson.
The president greeted them warmly
and after chatting a moment the
party was escorted to carriages.
South Temple street for blocks was
lined with military, civic and frater-
nal organizations, and as the car
riages passed the, organizations fell
in line. Preceding the presidents

Bringing up the rear were nearly
600 mounted COW punchers and sheep

the president. The sunburned

and the president rose in his car
rage and bowed in response to their
wild cheering.
The procession proceeded through
the business section to the city and
county buildings. Excursion trains
had been run from every point of the
state, and it is probable that more
than $4,000 people saw and cheered
the president here. Among the spec
tators were many old Mormons,
many of whom had come across the
plains with Brigham Young.
Nine thousand school children,
every one of them waving a flag,
greeted President Roosevelt as he
stepped from his carriage and mount
ed platform. The reception given
him by the youngsters evidently
pleased the president very much and
he smiled and bowed repeatedly.
After speaking a moment to the
children, the president reviewed the
long parade and then, .reentering his
carriage, was driven to the Taber-
nacle. When President Roosevelt
stepped forward after an introduce
ton by Gov. Wells, 11,0O0 people rose
to their feet and cheered wildly for
fully minute. The president spoke
in eulogy of the Utah pioneers, who,
he said came here not to exploit the
land and then go somewhere else,
but to built homes. Secretarys
Moody and Wilson also spoke brief
ly. Secretary Moody aroused con-
siderable enthusiasm by promising
to name a battleship Utah if con-
gress would grant him five battle
ships at the next session. Leaving
the tabernacle the president was driv-
en- to Senator Kearns' residence for
luncheon and rest. This was entire
ly an informal affair. President
Joseph. E. Smith. of the Mormon
church, Senator Smoot, Gov. Wells,
Congressman Howell and a few per-
sonal friends of the president and
Senator Kearns made up the party.
Odgen, Utah, May 30.-President
Roosevelt was greeted here by thou
sands of people gathered from all
the counties of northern Utah. At
pavilion on the public square the
president was welcomed by Mayor
Glasmann in q few words. Senator
Reed Smoot then introduced the
president, who spoke briefly.

had attempted to make mischief be-
tween the colonial secretary and him
self, but any such attempt would fail.
He commended that after the resolution
of the colonial conference Mr.. Cham
berlain was bound to raise the subject
of preferential trade for public dis
cussion.
Mr.. Balfour deprecated waving
the ragged, moth-eaten flags of either
the protectionist or the free trade side
in the controversy now as far removed
as the poles from the controversy of
half century ago." The premier then
proceeded to argue that the tendency
was to raise tariff wall against Brit
ish goods.
Dependent on others.
Great Britain, he said, must become
more and more dependent on foreign
countries for food, and, owing to eX-
terror tariffs, would find herself com
PEELED to dispose of her exports on on
erous terms, resulting in enormous
loss to the community, He, therefore,
argued that the time had come when
it should be publicly discussed whether
the doctrine that revenue was never to
be raised except for the purpose of ex-
penditure must not be abandoned.
FavOrs Freedom of Speech.
The premier declared that there
was no contradiction between the
views of Mr.. Chamberlain and his own;
but, he defended the right of any min
lister to freedom of speech. This fiscal
question required the most careful ex-
animation. He was not certain that
the scheme was practicable, but I'M
less some scheme was devised, the en-
pire could not progress.
Replying to a question Lord Gram
borne said that so far as the British
foreign Office was aware Germany
alone had threatened reprisals on
Canada in consequence of the latter
granting preferential treatment to
British goods.
