and sent boat alongside the Pennsyl-
vania in charge of the first officer with
letters from passengers. The first Of
fcer reported that the St. Louis boil
ers were leaking so badly that the ship
could only steam five knots per hourin
fine weather. They had on board eight
days provisions and water and all were
in good health. The steamer required
no assistance. --5 ri .....
The St. Louis made slow progress
coming into port. Although she was
sighted off Fire Island at six o'clock,
it was not until nine o'clock that she
passed Sandy Hook. She reached the
quarantine station at 9:47, and left at
1906 for her pier at the foot of Fulton
street, North river, where she arrived
before noon. 81
The marine station at Sandy Hook
displayed signal flags for the word
'Welcome,'' as the overdue steamship
came in, and the ST. Louis replied:
THANK you" No other signals were
displayed by the ship as she passed
Sandy Hook.
A large crowd gathered at the Amer.
lean line pier to welcome, the delayed
passengers.
Passengers Indignant.
The St. Louis left Cherbourg January
4 at LOG a. M, and arrived at Sandy
Hook, lightship at g. "a Saturday morn
ing, making the passage in 10 days, S
hours and 20 minutes, anaverage speed.
of s74 knots. Her days runs were, 341,
2s9, 1925, 312, 200, 1865, 1s5, 1870, 1873, 1913,
FPS, 1865 and 279.5; total distance, 3,043
knots. The first three days the st.
Louis made fairly good progress for
her ability in the prevailing weather
which was rough and squally with'high
cross seas. The speed then became so
slow that the passengers began to dis
cuss it and between the rough, stormy
weather and the ships inability to
make speed they became so indignant
that meetings were held. Resolutions
were adopted cond emning the steam
ship company for permitting the pas
sengers to embark on steamer whose
condition was so pitiable. It was de-
| cided that these resolutions should be
| typewriter on arrival or shore and
given to the press for publication.
Many Of the passengers expressed
great indignation.
Touching Scenes ON the Pier.
The tugs having gathered around
the ST. Louis, she was slowly brought
| to the dock, and when she came within
| speaking distance the excitement on
| the pier grew. It did not take long
for the first and second cabin passen-
gers to cross the gang planks once The
lines were fast, and as they got beyond
the rope inclosure they were gath
cred to the arms of their waiting rela-
tives. Each little group provided a
scene, the women in most cases weep

A Most Notable Convention.
The convention promises to be avery
notable one. During the first ten
days the regular business will come be-
fore the delegates and the wage de-
mands, to be made by the operators in
the bituminous competitive district.
which is composed of Illinois, Indiana,
Pennsylvania and Ohio, will be formu-

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
mittee for the competitiv district will
begin in Indianapolis January 80. Be
sides the advance in wages, it is un-
derstood that the miners will insist on
straight mine scale and sma Her diff
ferential between pick and machine
mining. 1t is understood that they
may also demand a uniform scale for
outside workers.
To Account for Relief Fund.
One of the most interesting features
of the convention will be the special
report. that will be made by Secretary
W. B. Wilson, in which he will give an
itemized accounting of every penny
that was contributed and paid i'm to the
relief fund for the strikers in the an
thracite district.
There seems to be general DISPOSE
ton on the part of the miners this year
to vote an advance in salary to Presi-
dent Mitchell IL and to Secretary Wilson.
AS in past conventions the Occidental
hotel is where most of the delegates
will congregate when not in conven-
ton. ~

DUTY Is IIN[N OF gON.
President Roosevelt Signs the Bill
Passed BY Congress and Il
Is Now 9 Law.
MEASURE BECOMES EFFECTIVE At ONCE
Anthracite Now PIaced Permanently
On Free List-Bituminoust to Enter
Ports Wdthout Tax for One Year
Measure Il Very Brief and Com
Washington, Jan. 16.-P President
Roosevelt signed the anthracite coal
repeal bill yesterday afternoon and
it became effective imme diately. All
anthracite coal now en- route to the
United States from Great Britain, as
well as anthracite in bond at ports
Of entry, will not have to pay q duty !.
Bituminous coal is to be admitted
free for period Of one year, but in
stead Of putting it directly upon the
free list the duty Of sc cents a ton
is to be rebated.
Coal Will BE Cheaper.
Coal from the Cape Breton mines,
from British Columbia and Australia,
thousands Of tons OF which are un-
derstood to be en- route to ports of
the United States, will be 81 cents
per ton less to American consumers
than it was previous to lis yester-
day afternoon, when the president
signed the coal bill, unless, of course,
shippers and agents combine to keep
up the price by taking advantage of
the necessities Of the people who
have to use it.
Bill Is Comprahe nsive.
The bill as it passed the house and
senate yesterday afternoon is very
brief and comprehensive. It is as
follows:
BE it enacted, that the secretary
of the treasury be and he is hereby
authorized and required to make a
full rebate Of duties imposed by law
on all coal of every form and de-
scription imported into the United
States from foreign countries for the
period Of one year after the passage
Of this act.
Sec. 2. That the provisions of para
graph AT of the tariff act of July
"a. 1897, shall not hereafter be con-
strued to authorize the imposition
OF any duty upon anthracite COAL
Permanently Repealed.
The last section was the amend
ment prepared by the finance COM
mittee of the senate and which re-
peals permanently the duty upon an
| thracite.
| Collectors Instructed.
| Washington, Jan. 1.-THE treasury
department. Friday received an official
certified copy of the act sapproved
Thursday placing coal on the free list.
Upon its. receipt, the department tele-
graphed the necessary instructions to
collectors of customs throughout the
country directing them to put the act
into immediate effect. The telegram
reads as follows: admit all coal i'm
! ported on or after the 18th inst. free
of duty under the act of the 18th inst.
Copy by mail"
| British Market Not Affected.
! London, Jan. 1.-THE remission Of
the coal duties by the United States
congress still appears to have little or
no effect on the British market. 1t is
realized here that America will never
become. a permanent customer for Eng
lish coal and that shipments to the
United States will cease the moment
the American supply overtakes the
| demand.
| Little French Coal VIII Come.
Paris, Jan. 17.-United States Consul
General Gowdy says it is not likely
that any French coal will be shipped
to the United States as result Of the
action Of the American congress in
placing coal on the free list.
