Representation as in 1909.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-Senator
Hanna returned from Chicago today.

by state or territorial conventions and
the others under the auspices OF con-
gressional district committees.

Notable Year in Mining Industry

DENVER, Jan. 16:-The past year,
is it affected the mining of gold, silver,
copper, zinc and lead, will be remem-
)ered as having marked a period or
very substantial production by num-
Der of new enterprises, organized With
in the past three years. The general
impetus which has been in evidence
in the development of the mines since
1898 and which, reached it's climax in
1902 was not deferred in 1903, nOtwith-
standing the fact that the preliminary
figures compiled by the director of
the mint show a decrease in the gold
production of $4,000, 900. This loss is
readily explained by the falling off OF
the Cripple Creek output due to labor
troubles.
While 1902 was in every respect a
memorable year for the mining indus
|try-one which witnessed the greatest
amount of new development work ever
undertaken for like periOd--yet 1903
viii take rank as satisfactory Sc
quence to a memorable year
In the west, particularly in Colorado,
Arizona and California, operations Of
the mines have been hampered by
labor difficulties each of which found
local reason to aggraVate it. While the
dissensiOn between the miner ana the
operator has been settled in California
and Arizona. a considerable amount
of ill-feeling still prevails in this state.
Aside from the usual slIirmiShing
which follows the announcement Of a
strike of ore, several important dis
coverieS were made during the year.
Tonopah New. in keeping with its re-
cord furnished the sensation OF the
year by the continued strikes which
were made at various parts OF the
carp, increasing the area in which it
was originally supposed that rich ore
would be found. Other important
strikes have been noted at Camp
Bowerman. GunnisOn county, Colo,
one near Hillsboro, n. NJ, still un-
verified, and the third in British Co
lunbia, at Poplar Creek
ASIDE from the general develop
ment work which characterized the
operations in the field, the existing
activity and interest displayed in fol-
lowing mining operations were demon
strated at nom mining centers by the
organization Of new mining exchanges.
Boston, Cleveland. Pittsburg, ST. Louis
and Cincinnati felt this extension of
the mining industry and new ex-
change is forming in New YORK.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, jan. 16.-Del-
egates are arriving from Illinois, Iowa,
Indiana, Kentucky. Pennsylvania.
Ohio, Michigan and other states for
the fifteenth annual convention of the
United Mine Workers Of America.
Tomlinson hall has been put in readl-
ness for the gathering which will be
called to order by President John

morning.
The convention this year carries with
1t more significance than any conven
ton of the miners in the last five years
not excepting even the assembly that
was followed by the declaration of the
great anthracite strike. If the reports
circulating among the delegates already
on the field are to be believed, the
convention, and especially the joint
conference between operators and mi
ners that will follow it's adjournment
will witness an important struggle.
Upon the deliberations of the joint
conference depends the wage scale for
the present year. 1t is now ASSERTED
that the miners will carry to this joint
conference q demand for 10 per cent.
increase. together with a demand for
several important concessions that will
have far-reaching effect throughout
the bituminOus field. At the same
it is reasonably certain that the oper
ators will carry to the joint conference
a demand for 20 per cent reduction
in the wage scale now prevailing.
