PROCEEDINGS IN HOUSE.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE contest be-
tween the ways and means committee
and the interstate and foreign COM
merce committee for control OF iusur-
ance legislation was continued In the
house today. Mr. Payne took the floor
10 show that the power to tax was the
only way In which Congress could get
control over Insurance, and the ways
and means committee had Jurisdiction
over the taxing power.
A review OF judicial opinions was
made by Mr.. Payne to substantiate
his position that Insurance was not In
terstate commerce. He contended that
IN the face OF the unanimous opinion
OF the supreme court the only explana-
ton touching Insurance that would be
held to be good would be 10 tax II. Mr..
Mann of Illinois said he saw great diff.
fculty IN regulating insurance through
the taxing power, but he did believe
regulation might be secured under the
commerce clause of the Constitution.
Regulation through prohibiting mail
facilities to insurance companies which
did not comply with prescribed regu-
lation was suggested by Mr.. Davis
(Minn.).
AS a precedent for the future. Mr..
Hepburn said he saw great Importance
IN tne manner IN which the question
should be decided. The supreme court
view. he said, was not the view Of
himself nor OF considerable number
OF members OF the house, nor Of the
American Bar association. The exact &C.
commendatlon OF the Bar association

tion for the regulation Of insurance"
was placed in the record by Mr.. Bart
lett Gao.

INFINITELY different than when decisions
IN question We're rendered
By adopting the resolution regarding
reference, taken with the statement of
Mr. Payne that the taxing power was
the only jurisdiction over Insurance.
Mr., Hepburn said the house would be
simply proclaming It's lack OF jurlsdic-
tlon. Particularly was this 50 when
as he said he had been informed. the
majority OF the ways and means COM
mlttee agreed with It's chairman.

cite coal miners convention began its
session here today. About 700 delegates

dent OF the United Mine Workers of

the organization in Western Pennsyl-
yania and the western states which
held contracts with the bituminous coal
operators
The miners leaders plan through the
convention to request "A conference Of
the operators. This viii be made in the
form OF "a resolution and The following
demands ii Is said, viii be made II the
conference is regranted as a substitute

recognition of the union,
An eight-houT work day.
An increase IN pay to all classes Of
employees OF at least 10 per cent AMI
possibly 20 per cent, based ON the wages
in effect April /, 1902.
This would means that the miners
would receive about the same as under
the present award.
For some unskilled employees it would
mean a slight increase.
Should the operators be disposed 90
grant the miners a conference their in
tention will be made known tomorrow
10 Mr. Mitchell. In the event OF a
favorab BILE reply coming from the oper-
ators the convention Will be in po-
sition to make up its list OF demands

A TRIP IN AN AlRSHlP.
Horace G. Wild Has Thrilling Ex-

Chicago, Dec. li--Witl the daring of
a man who faces death for the mere
excitement Of it. Horace y. Wild, an
electrician Of Chicago, yesterday for
the first time in his life made flight
in I'm alrship. He scared to height Of
$500 feet above the ground.
After series of thrilling expert
ences he returned TO the earth safely
three miles from where he started on
his trip In a machine which never had
been tested before. His fllYht was over
Grand crossing and was Witnessed by
hundreds of spectators. The trip
through the air at the height OF half
mile was made under difficulties
Willis greatest peril was the danger
OF losing his hold on the machine on
account OF the cold. Twice his numb
fingers slipped from their grasp OF the
frame OF the ship and twice he caught
himself by hooking his heels into a
groove In the cross beams.
The trim was made after several at
tempts covering a period Of three
weeks When the big alrship sailed
away the crowds cheered and wild
waved his hand gleefully
For time all went we'll, the diriglbe
Then the engine operating the propeller
stopped because the supply Of gasoline
was exhausted With that came 10 the
airship man the realization that he was
going higher and higher and had no
means Of propelling the ship In the d.
rectlon of the earth. Wild, In a
frantic endeavor to escape destruction,
climbed into the network OF the gas
filed bag above him and holding on
with the fingers of one hand, almost
frozen, with his teeth unfastened the
cord that held the escape valve, permit
ting the gas to escape in sufficient
quantities TO allow his floating to the
ground.
The pulling down OF the airship by
its trail rope was accomplished by two
men and a boy with the greatest dlht-
