way towards an agreement between the
miners and operators OF the Chicago &
Alton subdistrict was made by the joint
session to-day. A revision of the wage
scale between machine men leaders and

LOUISVILLE. KY. March A.-No agree
ment was reached to-day regarding a wage
scale for next year at the conference be-
tween representatives of the western Ken
lucky mine workers and operators and an
other meeting will be held tomorrow. An
offer OF the operators for a 10 per cent.
increase over last years scale was refused
by the miners and the matter is now in
the hands of subcommittee Of four,
chosen by the joint scale committee at It's
meeting at o'clock this afternoon. This
subcommittee, on which the miners and
operators are equally represented, held a
short session this afternoon, and although
no official information was given out, it
was generally understood that little prog
ress was made in preparing a schedule.
The miners demand the scale adopted at
the convention in Indianapolis which calls
for 80 cents a ton, while the scale paid in
Kentucky last year was 70 cents. AT a
conference held in Paducah last week the
operators offered last years scale, which
was refused and the matter was referred to
a joint conference appointed for this city.
Twenty-seven mining companies and 10000
miners are represented at the conference.

CHICAGO. March 24-Sympathetics strikes
launched before the exhaustion of all
efforts at arbitration were denounced to-
night by the transfers joint council repre-
senting organizations just now dominant in
Chicago labor union affairs. Resolutions
were adopted foreshadowing the expulsion
of any member or branch body that ven-
lures On a sympathetic strike which has
not been Endorsed by two-thirds of the
membership In Chicago.
The first organization to feel the Joint
councils resentment against hasty sympa-
thetic strikes is the Carriage and Wagon
Makers Union, which quit work Monday
and was refused aid tonight unless 1T pro-
posed or accepted arbitration of its differ
ences. The committee representing the
strikers asserted that the union had moth
ing to arbitrate and the answer was made
that the teamsters then had no aid to
offer. There was further parley after this
and the joint council finally consented to
appoint committee which will accompany
a delegation of the strikers tomorrow to
a conference with the employers.

FEAR FARM HAND UNIONS.
Land Cultivators Are Joining EN-
DIovers' Associations.

p1oyers' Associations.
Farmers in the Central States are con-
fronted with a new terror. The hired
man, the hand" and the "hobo," who
tolls when stress of circumstances COM
pels, are forming labor unions. Freder
lex W. Job, who has been organizing
employers associations in Illinois, says
the farmers are focking to the new as
sociations by the hundred in the hope of
finding protection against the demands Of
the wage workers.
"The regular hired men have been go
ing into unions rapidly" says Mr.. Job.
Furthermore, all the chance 'hobos' who
will toll occasionally, and to whom the
farmers in all the central and western
States look for help in the rush seasons.
have given in their names. The 'stubbla
chasers,' who roam from one section to
another, following the harvest, are or
ganizing. These men do most OF the
work of gathering the grain in Kansas,
Nebraska and the Dakotas. Then there
is another class which appears, like birds
of passage, with the first warm weather
that marks the opening of spring. With
out them the farmers would not get their
spring blowing done in time. The broom
corn cutters, on whom the growers in
central Illinois are absolutely dependent
in gathering their crop, are party to the
new unions. The men who are needed
to pick the fruit are going in. I can't
say what are the demands of the farm
hands organizations" Mr.. Job said.
But they will probably be for shorter
hours and uniform wages.
"All over the country" Mr.. Job says,
"the employers are making haste to per-
feet their organizations. Grocers, dry
goods merchants and dealers in every
sort of goods are subscribing. Manufac-
turers, laundrymen, those with teaming
interests-in fact, all who hire work done
and pay wages, are signing the rosters
of the new organizations"

Terms of Thirty Members EXpirr but
Falance of Power Remains anne.
The terms of thirty members of the
United States Senate expired on the Sd
of March, says a Washington correspon-
dent, but curiously enough the political
balance of power will remain the same.
This is very seldom the case. Never
before have so large a number Of changes
occurred without affecting the political
complexion of the body. Sixteen of the
thirty outgoing Senators have been re-
elected, of whom the following are Re-
publicans:
Alger. Hansbrough.
Platt of Connecticut. Dillingham;.
Galinger. Platt of New York.
PenrOSe. Allison.
Perkins of California. Foraker.
Fairbanks. Spooner.
ed:
Pettus. Teller
McEnery Of louisiana Clay Of Georgia.
Mr.. Mallory Of Florida has not been
reelected, but will be when the Legisla-
ture of his State meets in July. He was
unanimously Endorsed by the Democratic
State convention.
The following Democrats are succeed
ed by democrats:
Jones by Clark of Arkansas.
McLaurin by Latimer Of South Carolina.
Vest by Stone Of Missouri.
The following Republicans are succeed
ed by Republicans:
Mason by Hopkins Of Illinois.
Simons by Fulton Of Oregon.
The following Republicans are sue
ceeded by Democrats
Jones by Newlands of Nevada.
Wellington by German of Maryland.
Deboe by McCreary OF kentuckF.
Pritchard by Overman Of North Caro-
lima.
The following Democrats re sue
ceeded by Republicans:
Heitfleld of Hepburn Of Idaho.
Rawlins by SmOOt of Utah.
Harris by Long of Kansas
Turner by Ankeny Of Washington.
There is net gain of one for the Re
publicans in an emergency vote, because
all of the incoming Republicans are
strict party men and can be depended
upon to vote straight, while Wellington
and Mason, who have gone out, have
frequently bolted the Republican caucns.
On the other hand, Mr.. McLaurin of
South Carolina has been in the habit OF
voting with the Republicans when they
needed him, ana mas HOT attehueu ln0
Democratic caucus for several years. lie

Pritchard of North Carolina is the last

next Congress will not have a single Ike
publican either in the Senate or the
House of Representatives from the South

the States that were in the Southern
confederacy, except two Representatives.

become a representative in the lower

begin to put up fences and get ready for
