Washington. Sept. 22.-President Whit more. of the Stere otype.s' and Electro typers' Union of this city, made state ment today to the effect that his opposi- ton to the Central Labor resolution sent to President Roosevelt in the Miller ease was individual and not as representing the union He says he went to the exec utive council meeting to present 1t verbally. but that President Gompers of the Federation of Labor. refused to dis cuss the case. Mr. Whitmore said that the Stereotypers' Union is not and will not be involved in the controversy. The executive council of the Federation of Labor resumed it's sessions today.
 John Mulholland of Toledo.

PIG IRON MEN MEET.
l enleI That Purpose is to Form a
 Pool

New York Sept. 22.-A meeting of rep resentatives of about thirty pig iron fur mace companies in Northern States, par ticularly Pennsylvania and New Jersey were held here today. The conference lasted for several hours and adjourned to meet at a later day. It is understood that the meeting was for the purpose of dis cussion the formation of Northern pig iron pool. No definite proposition. it was said, was put before the conference. but a number of the conferees were delegated to draw up the details of the plan and re- port at the next meeting.
 At the conclusion of the conference Archer Brow:, said:
 We have not passed a single motion. The first thing which was decided was that there should be no regulation of prices nor restriction of output. We did not meet to form a pool. We met only to discuss the situation and exchange views.
 "L. Pickett was chosen chairman. He ;s to call another meeting probably next week Among the conferees were the Elm pire Steel and Iron Company, the Thomas Iron Company, the Warwick Iron and Steel Company and the Warton Iron Con- pany."

TRAIN IS HELD UP
SAFE IN EXPRESS CAR WRECK
 ED WITH DYNAMITE.
One Report is That . Rich Haul Was Made, While Another Says That Not Cent Was
 Obtained.

Kansas City, Sept. 22.-A special to The Timee from St. Joseph. Mo, says:
 Four masked men at 10 o'clock tonight held up west bound Burlington and Mis- souri River train No. fl, five miles north of this city. The safe in the express car was dynamited and the car wrecked. omcialc of the road say that the safe say that it contained from ', 900 to $1o,0oo in money.
 Everything in the safe was taken and the men escaped in the darkness with horses. A posse was organized and is in pursuit of the bandits.
 Not q single shot was fired. The train was stopped by means of a red light The engine and express car were uncou- pied from the balance of the train and carried half a mile farther on where 1t was dynamited.
 5 The train was in charge of Conductor Harvey. who hurried to the city and in organising and making the start. It was necessary for the entire train to be brought hack to the city and a new train made up which left at o'clock
 According to meagre reports received from the scene of the holdup at mid night, the instant the train was stopped two of the robbers climbed into the en. zine and with drawn weapons compelled the engineer and fireman to obey orders. One of the men uncoupled the engine and express car from the balance of the train. The party then climbed into the cab and the engine and cars were run up the track. The explosion followed.
 As soon as the safe was dynamited the men rushed to the wrecked car. It is asserted they did not get a cent as a re- suit. The train was loaded with pa assen- gers for the west and the hold up creat- cd a panic.
 Another story Is to the effect that the messenger commenced shooting, but was quickly overpowered, after which the robbers turned their attention to the safe. A charge of dynamite was placed against the door and exploded The safe door was blown of but in the explosion one of the robbers was badly hurt Pas- sengers on the cars, hearing the noise. rushed out of the day coaches and to the express ear The robers seeing that there were too many men to attack, fled into the fields along the track and escaped.

The Father of his Country concealed a luxuriant growth of hair beneath his queue wig. Many now wish the old fash ion were in vogue, to conceal thinned hair or badness. Yet no one need have thin hair nor be bald, if he cure the dandruff that causes both. Dandruff can not be cured by securing the scalp. because 1t is a germ disease, and the germ has to be killed.

MISS BRYAN's STRONG WILL.
Sail to Have Overcome Her Fathers
 Opposition to Wedding.

X>eW IOTh WOFlu.
 Tt is because of the calm determina- tion of Miss Ruth Bryan-a determina- ton all unshaken by parental argument and pleading-that this interesting young woman Is to be married Oct. to VII. liam Homer Leavitt, a painter of DOT traits. When Mir. and Mrs. William Bryan send out the invitations to the marriage of their elder daughter, 1t will mark the close of a struggle in which the strong will of the father has been overcome by the even stronger will of the daughter. Behind the consent which these invitations will signify to the gem eral public Is a story of supreme effort put forth by the parents of the young woman to prevent. and, failing in that. at least to postpone for one year or longer the marriage.
 Tt was through General Joe Wheeler that Mir. Bryan commissioned Mir. Lea witt to paint his portrait. The statesman and the artist were soon on friendly terms. The painting advanced but slow ly, for MT. Leavitt aspired to make 1t his best work. All the members of the Bryan family enjoyed the society of the young visitor who had a great fund of anecdotes about notable people he had met and strang places he had seen. From the first there was a strong bond of
 
 young painter. Within a few weeks after his arrival they were engaged to be mar ried.
 The girl frankly told her parents that here was a man who loved her devoted ly; that she loved him with equal fer vor, and that presently they were to be married.
 Would she wait a year? she was ask ed. No; she would not. She calmly de- clared that she would be married the day she becomes of age, regardless of objections.
 ''Mr. Bryan at last determined to sac rif1ce his interests, to leave his newspa- per in the hands of another temporarily and to go abroad with Miss Ruth for six months. She consented to go but on the second day of next October. she decIar- ed she would be IS years old. of full legal age, master of her own affains. and on that day she would be married to MT. Leavitt
 MT. Bryan found himself face to face with the same unfinching determination he has himself so often shown-and he was forced to surrender.
 ''TNen he went alone from Lincoln to Newport to sec if it were, not possible at least to secure some del.y. He very much wished the marriage deferred at least until spring. Mir Bryan called on MT. and Mrs. Leavitt at their rome They could not see any reason for putting off the wedding when the happiness of their son depended so much upon It. So the engagement was announced and the date set Oct. B. the day after the brides eigh- teenth birthday"
 The bridegroom-to-be Is a widower with one son. He is B years old.

UPTON TESTIMONIAL.
Two Designs from Tiffany Are Under
 Consideration.

New York. Sept. 22.-The hpton Testl. monial Committee met at the Waldorf to- day and examined designs for the testi- monial that the American people will pre- sent to Sir Thomas Lipton. Two Tiffany designs were considered the best of those submitted, and one of them is likely to be the final choice. One showing the Amer ican Indian, buffalo. sea gulls and Amer ican eagle with delicate trammings com prising dainty festoons of Indian corn, was much favored. though a smaller de- sign with clever representation of Sham rock III was also greatly admired.
 The committee wishes 1t understood that it has made no final decision and invited all to submit designs. Money Is coming in rapidly from every portion of the country and the indications are that the fund will reach $s,OOO or $10,OO0. If so more elaborate design may be ordered or the testimonial may be of gold instead of silver.
 The subscriptions will be open for sev- eral days. although 1t is hoped to get the testimonial finished so that it may be presented to Sir Thomas before he sails for Europe.

OTHERS ARE IMPLICATED,
Scandal Among Federal Officers Tn
 California.

San Francisco, Sept. 22.-The Call to- day says:
 Three more deputy sheriffs employed at the county jail as jailors, and one, perhaps two, deputy United States mar shals. will in all probability be connected crininally with the unlawful substitution of Chinese before the investigation now in progress is ended. The evidence ob- tained against them is said not to be con- elusive. but it is sufficiently strong to warrant more than a suspicion that they have been actively implicated in the ilIe- gal trafic for which three white men and three Chinese are under arrest, and on account of which William P. Gamble put an, end to his life.
 The investigation may even go further. There is a strong suspicion that Federal oficers higher up than the men directly charged with the offense of Chinese sub stitution exercised tacit acquiescence in the traffic. Their actions in this matter are being scrutinized with the utmost care by the secret service agents engaged in the investigation, and 1t need cause no surprise If an arrest of at least two of the important Federal officers in this city should follow.
