MARION, Ind, Oct 13.-The white liner
department of the Marion Fruit Jar and
Bottle Company is running with practically
a complete force to-day, the trouble with
the pressers having been in a measure set
tied
The condition has been peculiar, brought
about by an Improvement to the machine
used for making tops for fruit jars. This
year cutoff on the machine was invented
which does away with one workman to each
machine The national union tried to set
a scale to cover the Improvement, but the
pressers at the Marion and Muncie fruit
jar plants were not satisfied with the re-
suit. The pressers considered that their
interests had not been looked after prop
erly, and walked out, against the decision
of President Rowe, of the A. F. G.. w. IT,,
Of which organization the pressers are a
branch. 1t is said that Rowe ordered the
pressers back TO work at the same wage
scale. and where they refused he placed
other men. mostly gatherers, in their places
as a penalty.
A few pressers have returned to work
in the Marion plant, and other vacancies
have been filled with gatherers.

CONDITIONS In ARCTIC.
Facts that Indicate Ziegler Expedi-
ton May BE Frozen In.
New York Sun.

New York Sun.
Those who have studied the difficulties of
navigation in the arctic are not much sur
prised by the tidings brought by the letter
which William Ziegler has received from
Anthony Falls, in command of his north
polar expedition. The letter was written in
Barents sea, between Nova Zembia and
Franz Josef Land, and was brought south
by a sealer which Ziegler's steamer Amer
lea happened TO meet.
The expedition had been following the
edge of the ice pack west of Nova Zembia
for many miles vainly looking for lead
through which to push north. II was about
to turn westward, nearer to Spitzbergen in
the hope of finding an opening to the north
When the ice conditions are difficult in
Barents sea the fact is generally due TO
great masses of ice from the Arctic ocean
This ice is piled up against the eastern
shores of Spitzbergen, rendering them un-
approachable-
As rule the waters between Nova Zem-
bla and Franz Josef Land may be crossed
by steamer every year. Sometimes how
ever it is impossible to push through the
ice TO Franz Josef Land.
Further news OF the Ziegler expedtion
NAV not be received until next summer but
when il comes IL Will be read with interest
for the conditions this year are such that
it will not be surprising if the America is
coming winter helplessly I'm the ice between
Europe and Franz Josef Land.
The Tagetthof. on which Weyprecht and
Prayer, the Austrian explorers, discovered
Franz Josef Land ON Aug. 30. 1873. had ex-
actly this experience. The vessel. steaming
north, succeeded in pushing into the ice but
was caught fast by the closing foe while
still within sight of Nova ZemDla.
Her party had a most miserable time as
they drifted slowly north through the dark
ness of the following winter with ice blocks
piling up till they lowered fatnoms high
above the ship. IT seemed certain at times

BLOOMINGTON. Ind, Oct 13.-This city

who have assembled here in large num-
bers from all parts of Indiana, to attend
the eleventh annual convention of their
church. The first session was held in the
of welcome were made in behalf of the
church, the city and Indiana university.
The Rev. d. G. Dunkin spoke for the local
church, President Bryan for the university
and Judge ]. B. wilson in behalf of the
city. The Rev. J. N. Field preached the
annual sermon, and there was the reading
of few reports.
Matters in shape for what is begin
ing to appear will be most successful
delegates and prominent leaders from all
portions of the State and by tomorrow aft
ernoon as many as five hundred delegates
and visitors are expected. All sessions of
the convention are being held at the First
Baptist church, although on Thursday
evening the lecture by the Rev. b. ID.
Hahn, of Springfield, Mass, may be held
in the gymnasium of Indiana university
The sessions will continue until Friday
evening, closing with an illustrated lecture
by the Rev. Z. j. OILERS on the Holy
Land" To-morrow's session will convene
at o'clock and the morning period will
be devoted TO reports. The addresses will
be largely on Sunday school work The
Rev. J. w. A. Sewart. of Rochester, N. Y,
will speak on the Preachers Opportunity"
AS soon as the delegates arrived to-day
they were met at the train by committees
and taken to the churches, where they We're

where coal, food and other supplies were
stored.
They drifted north and west all through
the winter of 1S72-1S73 and through the fol-
lowing summer until the last of August.
when they finally saw the outlines OF
bold and rocky land rising before them.
Their toll and suffering had not all been In
vain. for they now knew that they had
added new land TO the known domains OF
the world. Then came the great sledge
journeys of the spring of 1874. which re-
vealed large part OF the archipelago they
had discovered. The Tegetthof. however,
was never freed from the ice. She was
abandoned on May 20, and the party sue
ceeded with terrible difficulty in dragging
boats southwark TO the free sea, where
they fell i'm with Russian fishermen, who
took them back to civilization.
The Danish Meteorological Institute re-
Gently published its report on the Ice con-
ditionS in the Arctic sea in 1902. These
conditions were very unfavorable for navi-
cation alike in Barents sea, the region OF
Franz Josef and around Spitzbergen. east
of Greenland and Iceland. The European
Arctic has had two successive bad ice
years. which was very unfortunate both for
the Ziegler expedition, under Mr.. Baldwin
last year, and for the present expedition,
under Mr.. Fiala. 1t will be good news
indeed il il is learned that by some happy
chance Fiala has reached Franz Josef Land
this season and is able to do the fall work
preliminary to his proposed sledge journey
to the far north next season.

TROUBLE OVER THE SCALE.


Special to the Indianapolis Journal
MUNCIE, Ind, Oct 13.-All day yester-
day and to-day the whiteliners employed
in Ball Brothers glass factory have been
in session, but no agreement as to return
ing to work has been reached, When Sec
rotary Dobbins, Of the American Flint
Glass Workers Union, left the city last
week he expressed himself as being much
satisfied with the settlement of the wage
scale for the coming fire. He had signed
a ratification of the scale of last year with
Ball Brothers, but the local unions have
refused to return to work under the old
scale. The installation of machines to do
away with one-half of the working force
claim that the machines are slower than
hand labor and that the amount of ware
produced will necessarily be smaller. AS
the men are paid by the piece this will re-
duce the total of their wages. A few of
the whiteliners are willing to go to work
but the majority of them will not accept
the scale
John Denny, eX-president of the new l..
A. 300 held conference Monday after
noon at the Kirby House with number of
glass workers of this city 1t was his
plan to get the men to sign an individual
tory at Lancaster, o., of which he is
manager. The scale, as proposed by him,
in regard to wages does not agree with the
one that has been entered into between the
Window Glass Workers Association of
America and the manufacturers for this
satisfied with the scale that was presented
and did not sign. 1t is said to be about
80 per cent. lower than the scale agreed
on by the workingmen and manufacturers.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
RICHMOND, Ind, Oct &c. n. Wilson,
who is promoting the Appleyard traction
line from Columbus. Ind, to Richmond,
was here to-day with other men interested
in the project. Mr.. Wilson promises to
have in operation within two years one of
anywhere. The right of way from Con-
nersville to Columbus has been secured and
is verbally promised ten miles this side
of Connersville. The company asks for
no subsidies. but merely wants a free
right of way.
A conference was held at Centerville this
afternoon with regard to securing the right
of way over the Commons road. 1t is not
definitely settled how the road will enter
Richmond, but ii is thought the terminals
will be west of the Whitewater river the
traffic being transferred to the city lines
The line will handle freight by the carload,
Mr.. Wilson says. and now has orders for
10000 carloads In black and white. The
system is to be double-tracked ninety
pound steel, stone ballast and metal troll
ley poles. The equipment will consist of
sixty-ton electric engines, hauling from ten
hour. The company will ask the gov
eminent for contracts to carry the mail
to eight inland towns. 1t will use one of
the big express companies
The passenger cars are TO be Sxty-two
and one-half feet long and will be speeded
to seventy miles hour. The service will
be completed by Holland palace, sleeping
and dining cars. The sleepers will start
from Columbus and make connections for
west Pe"er and French Lick. They will
stop at Greensburg, Connersville and Rich
mond. making connections for Eastern

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Oct. 13.-South Bend
is to be the hub of a perfect network of
electric railways. A project is now on foot
TO bring about such a condition Of affairs
and interurban cars will be running from
South Bend in all directions within the
next few years. The scheme is fostered by
George F. McCulloch, president of Indiana
Union Traction lines. 1t includes the merg-
er OF the Indiana Railway Company. the
South Bend & Southern Michigan Railway
Company. the Indiana Western Railway
Company and probably the Chicago &c In
diana Airline Railway Company, with
line which McCulloch proposes to build
from Peru to South Bend.
Before beginning work on the Peru and
South Bend line the indianapolis man wants
to secure control of the electric lines lead
ing out of the city. AS soon as he can ac-
complish his purpose the South Bend &
Southern Michigan Railway Company will
be extended to st. Joseph and Benton Har-
Dor. Mich, ard the Indiana Western Rail-
way will be built from South Bend to Mich
igan. via Carlisle and Hudson lake. At
the same time these roads are being ex-
tended and built, work will be pushed on
the proposed line between South Bend and
Peru. The latter line will include branch
road from Peru to Logansport, Ind. The
distance between Peru, Ind, and ST. JOS
eph, Mich, Is Ito miles.
The route selected includes stations at
Rochester, Argos, Plymouth, Lapaz and
Lakeville. The Logansport branch will ex-
tend through New Waverley and will be
fifteen miles Iona. If the McCulloch scheme
is carried out South Benders will be able
to go to Indianapolis in electric cars, as
an announcement has been made that the
indianapolis and Logansport, will be in
operation on Jan. l.

MONUMENTAL ANTIETAM
TEN SHAFTS TO OHIO REGIMENTS
UNVEILED By GOVERNOR NASH.
His Tribute to MckinIey's Part i'm the
Great Observation-Disclosures British
General on the Field.

HAGERSTOwN, Md, Oct. 13-The ten
monuments erected on Antietam battlefield
by the State of Ohio. including one to the
memory Of President Mckinley, were dedi-
Gated to-day with appropriate exercises.
The presence of many distinguished per-
sonages was prominent feature of the
day. Gen. Ian Hamilton, the famous Brit
ish general. and his party. including Sir
Kay Muir. his brother-in-law, witnessed the
dedication with great interest. General
Hamilton spent yesterday at Gettysburg,
and went to Antietam last night.
The exercises were held at the old Dunk
ard Church. beginning at IL o'clock. The
order of services observed was as follows:
Prayer by the Rev. William r. Parsons, of
Ohio; report of the battlefield commission.
read by Capt. w. w. Miller; Introductory
by the president. Maj David Cunningham;
presentation of the monument to the War
Department by Governor Nash, of Ohio:
acceptance by acting Secretary of War
Robert Shaw Oliver. Gen. r. p. Kennedy,
of the Twenty-third Ohio Regiment was
the orator of the day. Governor Nash, in
presenting the monument to the govern
ment, said. in relation to McKinley's part
There was in this battle a young soldier
from Ohio. by name William Mckinley. He
was the commissary sergeant of the Twen-
ty-third Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infan-
try. On the afternoon of the close of the
battle, with much personal risk to himself,
he supplied his hungry comrades with
cooked rations upon that part of the field
where they had valiantly contended for
hours with their intrepid foe. For this act
The State Of Ohio has erected on the ground
where this service was performed a beau
tifui monument to his memory. This soldier
was afterwards President of the United
States and became martyr for his coun-
try. as did Lincoln. Like Lincoln he prayed
that the passions of the civil war might
pass away, and that affection for the Union
might be restored to all the people of this
country. For this reason Ohio has taken
all the more pleasure in erecting this monu-
ment. Fortunately he lived to see the evil
dence Of the cordial feeling. TO which he
contributed much. between the North
and the South, which existed during the
Spanish-American war. AS the years go
by il is our hope that whoever wanders
over these fields and looks upon the monu-
ment lovingly erected by his State to the
memory of Mckinley, will learn to love and
reverence the flag as he loved and rever-
enced it."
