OF rihemen here for the tournament Of
the National and New Jersey Rife As

The cadet match. which was scheduled
for today. will not take place At the
failure TO pull of this contest there IS
very general regret. 1t was to take the
place Of the West Point-Annapolis
match. which the National Rife Associa-
ton announced for several years. but
Whlch, on account Of the failure of the
army authorities to detail a West Point
team. was never shot for. The competi-
ton, thrown open 10 all institutions Of
learning In which there IS q course in
military instruction by an officer detail

national arm kept away teams from
schools which otherwise would have
been represented.

Industrial Association Plans TO Com.
bat Organized labor.

New York, Dec. 1.-Plans for or.
ganizing the employers of labor in this
country to combat the labor unions
were considered at yesterdays session
of the Citizens Industrial Association.
One of the speakers, John Beattie, rep
resenting the Master Painters Associ.
alton, of New York, said:
Recently asked President Roose.
welt as an American citizen to use his
influence to put the responsibility on
labor unions, and he said, That's the
thing that is needed"
A dispatch from Washington states
authoritatively that the president has
no recollection of visit from Beattie.
1t was also announced that the presi.
dent did not make the remark attribut.
ed to him by Beattie.
The report of the committee on reso-
lutions was adopted. 1t favors an open
shop and recommends the establish
ment by boards of education of artisan
schools, under the control and direc.
ton of the state, giving a diploma
which shall be the evidence of the
right to begin to practice trade.

ADOPT PATCHING SYSTEM.
Coast Lumber Manufacturers Take
Important Action.

Seattle, Nov. 28.-The executive
com mittee Of the Pacific Coast Lum.
Der Manufacturer Association, at a
meeting held in this city, adopted the
matchinR system in genreal use by the
Southern Pine Association. This is
one of the most important moves that
the association has made in many
months, and will, it is believed, result
in increasing the rail business to the
Missouri valley and Eastern points.
The new matching system will ap.
ply to all general finish and interior
lumber, such as flooring, ceiling, etc..
and while not covering the cedar prod.
ucts, drop siding or partition s,ock, in.
cludes all other lines.
The matching system is one that in
.sures uniformity in size in the prod.
uction OF staple lumber products. A
dealer can purchase from different
mills at different times and be assured
that his latest stock will fit in with
any surplus remaining oser from for
mer orders.
The annual meeting Of the associa-
ton will be held at Tacoma Decem-

Washington, Dec. Russia ia =.
willing to join the powers in secons

her war with japan is ended.
The Russian reply to Secreta,.

October % last, inviting them, in tn
name of the president, to reassemblS
in conference at The Hague, Ito Con-
plete the postponed work Of the frs,
conference" was delivered verballv -
Secretary Hay yesterday by Count Ca
SIM, the Russian ambassador.
The ambassador was requested h..
his government to say that Rpss;s
heartily accepted in principle the in
vitation to a second conference at III.
Hague, and readily associated berssl,
with the American government -
complete the mission of the first q.
sembly convened under the leadersh;,
of the Russian emperor.
The ambassador was further 70
quested to say that, while the Russian
government very sincerely cherished
these views, it did not consider tho
moment opportune for the convenin.
of such conference, and it, therefor
must withhold it's formal acceptanoa
until the war in the far East was q,
an end.
So far as the Russian government !,
concerned, it is stated here, that il j.
naturally averse to the discussion q,
the many important questions which
would come before the conference q,
a time when it's attention is devoted
to a foreign war.
In diplomatic circles the news ot
Russia's conditional reply caused some
surprise The caution which charsc.
terized even the consideration at 81
Petersburg, made several ambassadors
here doub tful about the favorable 70.
ception of the American note. This
doubt has been removed, however, BY
the friendly terms in which the note
of yesterday was couched.
For the present it is probable the
American government will rest on its
oars. When the far Eastern war en-.
tiers its final stage this government will
be ready to>follow up its proposition,
In the meantime should Russia's atti.
tude change she will find the Amer.
can government ready to lead the DOW

Plan to Consolidate Pacific Coast
Fisheries.


Portland, Or, Nov. 28.-It is stated
that plan has almost reached perfec-
ton to secure the properties of the Pa
cific American Fisheries Company and
the Pacific Packing & Navigation
Company, the two largest salmon pack
ing companies on this coast, with the
pubrpose of securing control Of the en-
tire salmon output on this coast, IN
Guiding British Columbia and Alaska.
Eastern capital is said to be behind
the project.
The Oregonian says that men who
are said to represent John Cudahy, the
packer, secured the properties OF the
North American Fisheries Company,
when it was sold at auction by the re-
ceiver ;ast summer.
These men are said to have been
bidders at the sale of the Pacific Amer
clan Fisheries at Bellingham Nov. 10,
but were outbid by W. D. Peters, rep
resenting T. M. McGovern, president
of the defunct Pacific Packing q Nav
igation Company. At the time OF the
sale in November Peters deposited a
check for 10 per cent of the amount
bid, but it is said that McGovern, who
in reality is said himself to merely
represent the original stock holders and
bondholders of the Pacific Packing q
Navigation Company, has been una
BILE to secure the necessary money to
float the remaining 80 per cent of the
purchase price.
The sale of the properties Of the Pa
cifc Packing & Navigation Company
will occur December 10, and it is
stated that Cudahy money will prove
a factor in the sale. Should he be
successful in securing the proerty, &C.
cording to an arrangement which is
stated to exist, the successful bidders
at the Pacific American Fisheries sale
will assign their interest to Cudahy g
representatives, thus giving him con.
troll Of the largest fishing concerns on
the coast.
