DOING PRETTY WELL
SAM PARKS BAYS HE Tg STILL
 IN THE RUNNING.
Carries Every Point in eht Kansas City Convention-Decision to Afiliate With the Feder-
 ation of Labor.

Kansas City, Sept. 30.-Samuel Parks. walking delegate from New York. waved his magic wand over the delegates to the annual convention of the International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers today and brought peace and harmony out of conditions that seemed to portend only strife that might have meant a disruption of the organization.
 Before the convention met President Buchanan's followers intimated strongly that they would withdraw if money were voted to local No. 2 of New York. After Parks had addressed the delegates they voted S1, 600 as a loan from the organixa- tion. Practically no opposition to the ap- propriation was displayed.
 Parks evidently had reconsidered his plan to ask the convention to vote an as- sessment of $l against each of the 5000 members throughout the country and he ridiculed the statement that he would finally ask that each member of the as- sociation give days salary which would aggregate close to $500,000
 After the convention MT. Parks said of it's action: 'I guess I'm doing pretty well. seem to be in the running yet"
 Another victory for Parks was the &C., ton of the convention in voting almost unanimously to affiliate with the Ameri- can Feo0ratlon or LaDor. Fresldent Buchanan. who had voted against affilia- ton at the Boston convention two years ago. briefly addressed the convention in favor of it. He had favored such action in his annual report. Delegate McGovern of Albany made a set speech in favor of affiliation. and then Delegate Parks fol- lowed in a rousing talk that carried the convention with him almost@to a man.
 Another action was the adoption of minimum road scale of $50. which will cover all territory not now controlled by existing locals.
 The question of apprentices. 1t was de- cided, would be submitted to the various locals of the country for a referendum vote.
 The Committee on Constitution was re- quested to bring in an amendment to the Constitution defining more clearly the power of the President and Executive Board in calling strikes
 Despite reports that an unfavorable re- port would be made on the annual report of President Buchanan, the Committees report as presented, was favorable to the President. It was adopted without de- bate and most of his recommendations were favorably acted on.

Dr. Babcock, superintendent of the In- sane Hospital, saw Gonzales at the hos pital just after he was received there Gonzales, he said. made a statement which he said he took down in long hand notes.

 The statement was first given by the witness in the absence of the jury. the defense objecting to the introduction oi the latter part, but subsequently withirew the objection.

 Last night and this morning the broth- CTS spent hours writing leters, which by he end of the day will number forty or more, addressed to persons in many places. They were read and passed upon by the warden, who will mail them.
 The condemned men spent much time also in discussing the manner of their walk to the death chair, agreeing to walk quietly to the chair with eyes fixed on the crucifix which each will carry.

 Grievances.

0xA0N&&xS10s
 WiIkesbarrs, Pa; Sept ,ao.--The concil- iation board resumed fits sessions at the ofice of the Lehigh. Valley Coal Com pany today. A vote was taken on the three most important grievances which were brought up at the session yester- day and there was a disagreement on all three. The grievance of the Delaware and Hudson miners at Plymouth was first voted on. The men complained that they were obliged to have the track on one sids of the chamber and all the rock and refuse on the other. It was contended that if the road was constructed in the center of the chamber 1t would be more satisfactory. For the additional work the miners asked for more pay. Tie vote.
 The vote on the claim of the rock men employed at the Dunmore colliery of the Erie Company for extra pay was the same.
 The employees complained that the wages paid at the different collieries was not uniform and they asked for ciassl- fcatiop Tie vote. The grievances will probably not be submitted to the umpire for q decision. In the case of Charles witmar, Davis. Doandow and Mathew Thompson. formerly employed as drivers at the Williamstown mines of the Penn syivania Railroad Company. who com plained that they could not get work after the strike. 1t was announced that ar engagements had been made and the driv- CTS will be given work.

HOUSE AFTERNOON SESSION.
Resolution Adopted to Adjourn Un-
 til Saturday.

There were sixty-eight members present when the afternoon session of the House began. A Senate message was taken up and disposed of.
 Mir. Lyons of Mobile, offered resolu- tion providing that the Legislature should adjourn at the night session to meet Fri day morning at 9:S0 o'clock. The rules were suspended and the House passed the resolution.
 A second resolution presented by MT. Lyons authorized the Clerk to remain and employ three of his assistants for one week to complete the work of rC- cording for the Legislature. The resolu- tion was adopted under the same sus- pension of the rules.
 By unanimous consent MT. Foster of Tuscaloosa, called up Senate bill 24S re- lating to the assets of defunct corpora tions. The bill was passed.
 The report of the Conference Commit tee on the General Election bill was sub mitted by MT. Bandkhead of Walker. He explained the Committees report. The Conference Committee, he said, had been unable to agree on all the questions sub mitted of difference between the Senate and the House. The members of the Committee had insisted on the amend ment to the bill providing for booths and markers. The Committee had therefore agreed upon a compromise by which OOOlHS were pTONlueu IOT Tn towns Of not less than 5000 inhabitants. while in all other polling places no booths were to be used.
 MT. Foster of Tuscaloosa, asked if the Committee had considered that such ac- ton might not be unconstitutional
 Mir Bankhead replied that the question had been carefully considered by the Committee and its members were of the opinion that 1t would not be unconstitu- tional. Still the bill had been so arranged that if that provision of the bill should be declared unconstitutional. it's uncon- stitutionality would not affect the other portions of the bill.
 Montgomery Solicitor Provision. The Conference Committee, he said. had disagreed upon the Senate amendment known as the Montgomery Solicitor provision. The provision made the Solic- itor of counties of more than 6OOO0 in- habitants appointive by the Governor when there were no local laws. It had been the policy of the House. he said to have Solicitors elective. The Committee said MT. Bankhead. had seen no reason why the General Election bill should be loaded down with an amendment purely local in nature. The members from the House. he said. on the conference had lFnDfiuund on paoa E;ohkN
