SUGAR IMPORTS SHOW
VERY LARGE INCREASE

The value OF sugar imports of the
United States for the first ten months
of the present year was so. .006 .989 in
excess OF that for the same period OF
1904. according to statement issued, to-
day by the Bureau OF Statistics. De.
partment of Commerce and Labor.
Cuban importations were almost one
half OF all Hawaii was second. and
Porto Rico third. A very interesting por-
tion OF the statement was the showing
of decidedly healthy growth of sugar
imports from the Philippines. The i'm
portations for the year. up to October 81.
1905. were five times the value of the
imports OF last year.

Report Is Read.

The committee on credentials read it's
completed report at the opening OF this
mornings session OF the convention.
The report showed Col delegates seated
with 1880 votes.
Chairman Mitchell called for the re-
port of the committee on resolutions.
but the chairman of that committee
was not ready TO report.
President Fancy, OF the committee on
scales. announced that the committee
had completed it's labors and was pre-
pared to make its report. He asked the
pleasure OF the convention, and a dele
gate moved that the convention go into
executive session. The motion was pass
ed and a score of reporters marched
cut of the convention hall.
The convention. after the reading Of
the scales committee report. viii pro-
ceed to a general discussion Of the de,
mands.
The report of the scales committee
made public does not include the de-
mands that have been formulated for
presentation 10 the operators. These
demands will be kept quiet until they
have been made to the operators. This
procedure IS the same as the one fol-
lowed at the last Shamokin convention,
three years ago. when "A committee Of
district presidents made their demands
upon the operators, who refused them.
The committee made its report TO a
convention at Hazleton in the spring
and a strike was declared.

mean to treat direct with John Mitchell
and the national body they viii refuse
though ii means strike.
The situation Is delicate. in the sense
that failure on the part Of the miners
to formulate demands that will be met
by the operators may cause an upheaval
in the miners organization as a strike
in the hard coal region. Influences are
at work IN the upper region among the
foreign element, where IL IS strong,
counseiing them against q strike under
any consideration. The SIav, the Sla-
vOnic. the Lithuanian, and the Pole.
and their numbers are legion. are stroHl
in their devotion TO the church. which
has come into this industrial problem.
The church is opposed to a strike. and
its influence is being reckoned with by
the national officers. The Greek Catholic
Union IS working against strike
among the foreign miners.

The local teachers have many good

organization Of the Police and Fire De-
partments. in order to give the iiremen
and policemen better pay.
The District Commissioners have
given their Endorsement TO these three
