Everything Was Against Him, but the
 President of the Mine Workers Unions, Disregardins Parliamentary Law, Refused to Hear the Gavel. :.

Indianapolis, Jan. 26.-The United Mine Workers completed the work of their fifteenth annual convention today. The joint wage conference with the op- orators will begin tomorrow.
 The operators will make the assertion a that while the miners are not asking an increase of the mining scale now in effect a run of the mine basis and 9 differential of seven cents flat would mean 2 heavy increase.
 The present mining contract. cover ing all the operations in the four dis tiicts, will expire April l. Prei eiident Mitchell practically declined an; in- crease of S2,O0O g. year in his salary when a resolution was introduced to i'm crease it from S3.O0O to $5,OOO
 When put to a vote fully two thirds of the house voted for it. He declared the resolution lost, and when there w1s a call for a division he ignored it.
 With a rap of his gaveI he declared the melton lost and closed the debate Several delegates objected, saying that they desired to go on record as favor ing the raise. and they were told they could submit their objections in writ Ing.
 Indianapolis was chosen for the con- vention next year. and Presiden; Mitchell, Vice President Lewis and Secretary Treasurer Wilson were unan- imcusly reelected.

IMPATIENT LAPS
They Want to Know What
 Russia Will Do About It
An Intimation That the Japanese Will be Content With a Solution of the Korean Problem.

Tokio, Jan. 26.-The Japanese gov ernment automatically intimated to Baron de Rcsen, the Russian minister that an early response was desired to Japan's recent note to Russia. It is 'calculated here that the Japanese note reached the Russian cabinet on the af ternoon of January 16 and it is felt that sufficient time has elapsed for it's consideration and the preparation of a response.
 The Japanese government is con- scious of possible necessities in the military and naval situation and is un- willing to permit evasions and delays to gain time. The future course If the Japanese government is a care fully guarded secret. The length of time Japan is prepared to- await the pleasure of Russian is unknown. It seems probable that it mas been de- terrnmed to act decisively within a few days
 Popular temper is opposed to further delay. While many objected to Japan's s taking the initiative, a majority would now welcome the issuance of Q brief ultimatum and a declaration of war.
 Some outside opinion here inclines to the belief that the activities in Japan will be limited to the seizure of Korea, which enterprise. it is thought, Russia
 would not oppose.
 The Japanese government proceeds i with absolute secrecy, and the people 1 of Japan even a:e not informed of the exact nature of the demands made OH Russia.

IRON PLENTIFUL IN TENNESSEE.

Washington, Jan. 25.--A study of the Mamie CTenn.) quadrangle, which was toposraphicelly surveyed during the summer of 1909 by the members of the United States geological survey. de veloped two interesting facts of econo- mic importance. They are the general occurrence of iron ore throughout the quadrangle and the unfortunate de- struction now taking place of its native forests of Oak and poplar.
 The quadrangle lies mainly within the western ion region Of Tennessee. Min ing on a large scale is carried on at Mamie. in the northeastern portion of the quadrangle. The ore is a red hema- tite, found in pockets from 10 to 6G feet thick. It is easily mined from the surface and reduces to about 9 per cent metallic iron. A blast furnace hay ing daily output of 250 tons Of pig iron has been in operation here fo- a number of years. It was formerly C. charcoal furnace. but the fuel now em- ployed is cCkr. which is shipped from mines on the Cumberland plateau. Limestone abounds here and IS guar ried near the furnace.
 The native forests covering this pa teau consist largely of oaks. poplar < and pines. The oaks and pcplaLs are large, and consequently have great commercial value. By injudicious cut ting their number is, unfortunately, be- ing rapidly reduced.

Secretary of the Interior
 Has Called for Bids
NO GOVERNMENT PLANT
The Manufacturers Have Indicated
 That They Will Reduce Their Prices
 by Several Hundred per cent, Show ing That the Business Is Profitable

Washington. Jan. 26.-(Special to The Republican)-The secretary of the in terior has issued a call for bids to de- liver 150,0O0 barrels of cement at the Tonto Basin damsite. The bids are to be opened February 29th. This amounts to a practical abandonment of the project for cement factory at tke site.
 The geological survey has assurances that offers will be submitted for de- livery at approximately $S per barrel at the site. This is one third of the price originally quoted by the cement manufacturers.
 Bidders will not be ,restricted as tO the route, but department officials ex- pect that the delivery will be made via Globe regardless of the proposed wagon , road from Mesa Very material con- sessions have been made by the Globe. Gila Valley and Northern railroad company. C. C. RANDOLPH.
