that may arise must be settled by

81 this contract the union men came
to uH and submitted an arbitrary
demand. and struck when We re-
fused.
To begin with. last winter We
were much IN need of O. competent
engineer. and the union could not
furnish one who could put our plant
In condition. We then made an
agreement with them by which We
were to shut the plant down and
employ a nau-union engineer and
two union assistants. That agree

returned from UP country.
They kept calling me mp about

that Mr. Richardson would be home
on Tuesday and they then informed
me that they would order strike
on Wednesday anyway They dtd
not give any reason. but lust simply
said they We're going 10 order

Mr. Richardson came home on
Tuesday and We Immediately ar
ranged FOR a meeting That after
noon Mr.. Richardson and myself
met Mr. Hershey. OF the icemeu.

and started 70 discuss the affair.

would discharge the uon-uniou man

did not seem 10 be what they

Friebtful railroad Accident.

Warreushurg, Mo-, Oct. 10.-Be-
tween twenty and thirty passengers were
instantly killed one mile and a half east
of this city early this morning in col
lision between an eastbound worlds fair
train and freight train, running west
on the Missouri Pacific Railway. The
trains met at full speed head-on. Medi-
cal aid was dispatched from this city,
Sedalia, and other points Immediately
upon receipt of the news of the accident.
The injured were returned to this place
as soon as they were extricated from the
broken timbers OF the wrecked coaches.
The bodies of the dead are also being
brought to this place, as rapidly as they
can be recovered. 1t is feared that sew
eral bodies are yet in the debris, and
may be destroyed by the fire from the
engines, both of which were totally de-
molished. The bodies, in y num-
Der of instances, are SO badly dis
figured that identification will be
difficult. 1t is net known as yet
where the responsibility for the dis
aster lies, but it is supposed TO have
been caused by a misunderstanding Of
orders. The loss of life was greater in
the day coaches in front of the sleepers
in the passenger train. The track is
completely blocked by the wreckage and
travel will be stopped until the way is
cleared. Rescuers are still searching in
the debris for the bodies yet believed to
be under the wreckage.
st. Louis, Oct. 10.-The passenger
train which collided with the freight was
the overflow from No. 30, and was run
ming as the second section of that train.
1t was due atSt Louis at 8:06 this morn
ing and was running at high speed when
the collision occurred. The bureau of
information at the Union station had
not been informed of the wreck at 9:l5
this morning and the bulletin board re-
ported No. 80 to be one and halt hours
late.
A later dispatch says 81 people are
dead and several are dying as the result
of the accident.
The freight was under orders to await
the passing of the passenger at Montser-
rat. Section ! of the express went
through burning the customary light, it
is said, to indicate that another section
was coming, but through some misunv
Outstanding, of orders, the freight pulled
out and ran ahead on into the passenger.

Japanese Failing Back.

St Petersburg, Oct. ia dispa'S ,
from Mukden says the japanese are 1ail-
inc back on Liaoyang, when the nus
sisns intend TO attack.
ST Petersburg, Oct. lO.-Lieutenant
General Sakharoff, in a dispatch this
nnrniug. confirms the press reports of
the occupation of Benaipudze by the
Russians. The Japanese retired after a
skirmish.
Rome, Oct lO.-The Gioruaedi Roma
has dispatch from st. Petersburg, es-
timating that the Russian casualties at
Port Arthur and Lao Tung peninsula
and in the fighting up to the evacuation
of Liaoyang have amounted to 80, 900
killed, wounded and made prisoners.
At Port Arthur and ON the Lao Tuug
peninsula the losses, the dispatch says
we're Is, 900; against the first japanese
army 10000; at Kai Ping, Taschikao
andHai Cheng 5000; at Liaoyang TO-
900. In addition to this, he adds,
1000 sailors have been drowned and
40, 900 sailors and soldiers have been
taken prisoners.
st. Petersburg, Oct. 10.-The Japan
csc have retired As versts TO the south.
They have evacuated Toyan Chan, SIM
mai, Saimatsi, Fenshunling and Kuan-
diansian.
st. Petersburg, Oct. 10.-The Rus
sian forces under General Kuropatkin,
feeling themselves fully strong enough
TO assume the offensive, have marched
south from Mukden and attacked the
japanese forces. The Benaipudze re-
connaissance revealed that the japanese
had neglected to fortify one command
ing hill, which dominates nearly all the
positions. Upon the receipt of Mis-
chonk's report a general advance was
ordered. Previous to the order a church
service was held at Mukden, at the con-
clusion of which the chief priest, turn
ing to General Kuropatkin saidi 'In
ancient times, when the Spartans sent
their sons to battle, they told them to
return with their shield or on it; but |
tell thee to return with the Cross in
| Christ
General Kuropatkin, on October 8,
occupied commanding hill which the
Japanese had not fortified. He then
began to turn the Japanese right, which
forced the Japanese to withdraw from
their fortified positions. Then the at
tack on Benaipudze began, but the
japanese reireated, leaving only rear
guard. The Russians are now making
good their hold on the captured posi-
tons. 1t is believed, the telegram con-
cludes, that Generals Fushima and
Kuroki are working around to KurOpat-
kin's right and will attempt to cut his
railway communications.
Paris, Oct. IO-The Temps has dis
patch reporting that the Russian right
flank is engaged in an artillery battle II

THE EPISCOPAL CONVENTION.

The greetings of the Anglican Church
in Canada were transmitted to the Epis-
copal General Conference at a brief ses-
sion in Boston Saturday by the Right
Rev. Charles Hamilton, Bishop of Otta-
wa; the Right Rev. James Carmichael,
bishop. coadjutor of Montreal, and Dean
Evans, also of Montreal. Bishop Ham
ilton thought the United States might
well adopt the methods of dealing with
divorce now in vogue in his country,
where the courts which sever marriage
have little 10 do. The House OF. Depu-
ties considered proposal to permit the
election of suffrage bishops in large do
ceses or in localities where there are large
numbers of colored people or persons of
foreign extraction. The House concur.
red in discbarging the committee on
change of name of the church. II was
announced that the divorce question will
be taken up by the convention TODAY.
A joint committee of the two houses
of the convention voted to recommend
Richmond as the place for the next meet
ing of the convention which occurs in
October, 1907. Rev. William Meade
Clark and Mr, Joseph Bryan appeared
before the committee and presented the
invitation, which had been adopted at
the council of the Diocese of Virginia at
its last meeting in May.
Crowds went to Trinity Church yes.
terday to hear the Archbishop of Can
terbury preach, and to the Church of the
Advent, where mass-meeting in the
interest Of upholding the sanctity of the
marriage bond was addressed by several
we'll known leaders in the Episcopal
church.
Bishop Doane urged that the Episco-
pal convention adopt the rule prevailing
in the Church Of England which forbids
the remsrrisge of any divorced persons.
