MAKE ONE MORE APPEAL
Travelling Men Ask Rock Island
to Resume Abandoned Trains.

At o'clock this afternoon commit
tee representing the Kansas members
of the United Commercial Travellers
called on H. E. Byram, general super
intendent of the Rock Island, and held
a short conference in the latter'S office.
The purpose of the committee in call
ing on Mr.. Byram has not yet been
given out, but it is thought that the
travelling men will ask for the resump-
ton of trains No. 35 and No IS be-
tween Kansas City and Harrington.
This train was taken off several months
ago, and the travelling men immedi-
ately commenced to complain of the
poor service that the Rock Island was
giving them. Several conferences were
held between J. NJ Gruber, who was
then superintendent, and the commit
tee, but each time the travelling men
got the worst of it.
Whether they will be successful in
the later attempt to restore the serv-
ice remains to be seen. 1t is also
stated that they will ask for additional
stops on trains No. and No. 6 be-
tween Belleville and Phillipsburg.

Days Work of the Industrial

Indianapolis. Ind. Feb. 24.-The ex-

dustrial Association of America today

organization Of the country. Many or
ganizers will be put into the field.

ductioE In wages. If a period Of fall
ing prices is now setting in, as is
claimed by some, the joint agreement
movement win likely be tested to its
fullest extent. If. under it, wages are
reduced and the mine workers continue
at their employment the joint agree
ment or contract will have withstood
the greatest strain that can be. put
upon it.
Although the interstate joint confer
ence plan is confined to Ohio, Indiana,
Illinois and western Pennsylvania its
underlying principles for averting con-
hiets between capital and labor in the
soft coal industry have secured foot
hold in all or parts of West Virginia,
Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Ala
banla, central Pennsylvania, Michigan,
Iowa, Kansas and Missouri In these
last mentioned states the agreements
made follow along the general lines OF
the interstate contract
IN brief it is estimated that about
1s500o mine workers, producing some
1875 900, 900 tons of bituminous coal, work
under agreements with their employers
entered into by the United Mine Work
ers of America The $4,000 anthracite
mine employees, producing annually
so. 00o. 900 tons of hard coal, have no such
agreements but their wages and condi-
lions of employment are for the present
under the direction of the Cancellation
board, composed Of three representa-
tives of the operators and three of the
mine works, esta bished by the anthra-
cite strike commission appointed by
President Roosevelt in 1902. The larger
number of mine employees in the coal
producing states west of the Mississippi
river and in Michigan, Maryland, the
two Virginias, and the central and west
ern Pennsylvania soft coal fields do not
work under joint agreements. OF the
twenty-eight coal producing states, how
ever, the United Mine Workers and the
joint agreement contract are strongly
entrenched in the most important.
'sSince the joint movement was re-
stored in the central competitive terri
tory in 1898 no strike or lockout of any
serious proportions has visited any of
the states or districts which are parties
to the joint agreement In the preceding
four or five years, during which the
agreements had lapsed for various
causes, strikes and lockouts1and general
industrial unrest were the rule rather
than the exception. It does not follow,
however, that the joint agreement pre-
vents absolutely all possibility of indus
trial disturbanees-thfs power is not
claimed for the movement by even its
most ardent advocates. The principle
does tend, however, to establish and
preserve Industrial harmony between
the two conflicting interests and to Sc
cure more stable market conditions. The
value of the joint movement is also re-
hected in the imitation of it's principles
by other branches of industry"

Mr.. BYRAm NAMED.
Last of Rock Island Officers
Leaves Topeka.

It was officially stated today that on
March L the office OF H. E Byram, who
recently succeeded J. M. Gruber as gen
eral superintendent of the western dis
trict of the Rock Island, with headquar-
tiers in Topeka, will be moved to Kansas
City with the other general Offices This
rumor has been circulated from time to
time for several months past, but it was
not until today tat the local officials OF
the road would say anything definite in
regard to it. Mr.. Byram returned yes
terday from Kansas City and it is thought
that it was while he was there that the
final decision in regard to the removal
of his office was made.
This action the part of the ROCK
Island authorities in taking the general
superintendent office to Kansas City
leaves Topeka without Rock Island
general office. In the past Topeka has
been an important point on the Rock Is
land, but hereafter Kansas City viii be
the headquarters of this district of the
ion superintendent, will be the highest
official of the operating department in
Topeka
The removal of Mr. Byram's office to
Kansas City will also necessitate the re-
moval of the homes of the employees OF
the office The following are the per
sons who will accompany Mr.. Byram: l..
Ramsey, chief clerk: s. o. Wilkinson,
assistant chief clerk; T. Roope, assistant
superintendent of motive power L. l.
Collins, private secretary; e. A WOOD,
file clerk; A. H. Hudson, stenographer;
c. B. Burge, stenographer; Miss M A.

and James Bertha, porter.

MIKE THOMPSON'S LOSS.
His Smoke House Is Destroyed by
Fire.

Mike Thompson's smoke house burn
ed down at O'Clock Tuesday night
Mike is the jovial proprietor of the
biggest gambling parlors in town, and
his place OF residence is Eighth and
Monroe.
Besides being distinguished in To-
peka for his ability to make a lot of
money, it IS probable that fame also
owes him a call because of his smoke
house, for srnokehouses are uncommon
since the reconstruction days. This
STnokehouse was in the back yard of
the Thompson residence, and contained
several handsome hogs which were be-
ing prepared according to the hickory
smoke method In some way the build
ing took fire. and was burned so serf-
ously that the hogs will probably not
recover.
Fire pressure for this CONFEDERATION
was very good again. The water COM
pany seems to be really getting down
to business once more. The following
is the record:
