received the authority of the home
government to deal finally with the
matter of the war contributions, and
he declared that the reports hitherto
published, which purported to give de-

were premature, unauthorized and for
the most part incorrect.
Mr.. Chamberlain said he hoped that
his hearers would agree to these ar
rangements, which would be a happy
augury for the unification of the two
colonies. He then referred to the labor
problems at the mines and suggested
that the imperial government should
appoint commission to inquire into
the matter in all it's details.

MINE WORKERS CONVENTION,
Demand of Increased Pay in Btunin.
Gus District to Be Made.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Jan. IL
President John Mitchell, of the United
Mine Workers, is expected to arrive
in indianapolis from Philadelphia to-
morrow afternoon. Monday morning
President Mitchell will open the min
ers' convention. Monday night will
occur public demonstration, at which
much speaking will be done.
The annual convention will be made
up of 1000 delegates, representing
tWenty-four states. During the first
ten days the regular business will
come before the delegates and the
wage demands to be made on the oper-
atorS in the bituminous competitive
district, which is composed of Illinois,
Indiana, Pennsylvania and Ohio, will
be formulated. It is thought that the
convention will decide on a demand
ranging from Is to 20 per cent, and
that they will get about 10 per cent.
The wage conference between the
workers and the operators wage COM
m1ttee for the competitive district will
begin in indianapolis jan 80. Besides
the advance in wages, it is understood
that the miners will insist on
straight mine scale and smaller diff
ferential between pick and machine
mining. 1t is understood that they may
also demand uniform scale for out
side workers. There seems to be q
general disposition on the part of the
miners this year to vote an advance
in salary to President Mitchell and to
Secretary Wilson.

No Duty VIII Be Collected.

. WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 1.-THE
treasury department received inquiries
today as to whether the government
proposes to admit coal into the United
States free of duty under the act ap-
proved Jan. Is, or to collect the duty
and then refund it to the importers.
In view of the fact that the wording Of
the act leaves some doubt as to the real
purpose of congress, Chairman Payne,
of the House ways and means commit
tee, was consulted today and his an
swer leaves no doubt that it was the
intention of congress that no duty be
collected. The solicitor of the treasury
also gave an option in which he held
that under the act coal must be ad-
mitted free in the same way that GER
tain articles on the free list are ad-
mitted under the Dingley act. The de-
partment circular, of yesterday saying
that no duty be collected on coal will

COFFEE CURE FoRHorsEs.

The German naturalist Martin

horse which owed its life to coffee.
1t was in such a bad way that it
was considered ineurable, and the
owner sold the animal for fifteen
dollars.
The animal was then almost a
skeleton and 50 weak that it could
hardly walk. The man who bought
the horse immediately began to treat
it with coffee, giving infasions of
roasted coffee beans, and also COTE,
beans ground and mixed witt
honey. In short time the horse
began to improve, and after a few
months its new owner was offered
$50 for it.
He told Herr Martin he had
brought round by the same treat
ment many horses which had been
overworked or had lost their
strength and appetite.-Boston

MR.. URIAH LOTT
Talks About the New Brownsville
Road Surveying Commenced.
Corpus Christi Sun.

A. NJ. French, in charge OF a
surveying corps of fifteen men, left
Monday for Sharpsburg, where a
route for the St. Louis, Brownsville
and Mexico road will be surveyed
across the river, and from thence
reach Brownsville in as straight a
line as possible. Mr.. Uriah Lott
state, that this road will run from
Chicago to Brownsville, and from
there. be extended to some tide wa
ter point in Mexico. He says that
the Development of artesian wells
on the Santa Gertrudis and other
large ranches between here and the
Rio Grande has made the construc-
tiun OF such road imperative
that the large ranch owners along
the line have donated several thou
sand acres of land, and are enthus-
iastic for the completion of the
road. lie saws it will cross the San
Antonio and Arkansas Pass at Sin
ton. but thai the main line will not
run througb either Corpus Christi
or Alice. By reference to the Board
OF Trade proceedings published In
/ this issue, it will be seen that Mr..
/ Lett says Corpus can be connected
with the line by Il loop, and that Il
committee has been appointed to
cels5er with him and if necessary
to. raise a bonus with that end in
view Mr.. Lott states that it would
better subserve the interests of this
town to build 3 loop through a
large section of agricultural eoun-
try, and develop same, than to he
.on the main line merely as a way
station. In this connection it Is
we'll to aear in mind that Corpus
Christi ,rill have direct connection
via the S. A. P. at Sinton, also via
the Texa-Mexican at Rogers, or
some other station on that line
However, a loop built by Corpus
Christi capital would be controlled
by Us, and would no dogbt be in
strumental in developing a vast sec
ton of fine country, now turned
over exclusively to prickly pearand
jack rabbits.
The Sun is no optimist, but it
sincerelysbelieves that this Browns
Vile road will be built. Ii will open
up to settlement millions Of acres
of as fine agricultural land as Code
sun ever shone upon. That will be
a great and lasting benefit That
land should be developed whether
or no We build 4 loop to tap Nj
