ROCK ISLAND WITHDRAWs.
Discontinues Traffic in Dressed Meats
and Provisions.

CHICAGO, December 16.-The Rock Is
land railroad has gone out of the dressed
meat and provision traffic and has with
drawn all trains engaged In hauling the
products.
The announcement was made today, and
the traffic officials of the company have
given notice that hereafter they would not
solicit any business from the big packers
Until a short time ago the Rock Island was
a sharp competitor for this class of traffic
which provides an enormous tonnage for all
western ROADS.
The explanation given is that the packing
house business does not pay under existing
rates, and 1t Is stated. in the opinion of the
Rock Island officials, that no railroad can
haul packing house products and provisions
between Missouri river points and Chicago
at present rates and make money. With
their withdrawal from the packing house
traffic. between Kansas City, ST. Joseph.
Omaha and Chicago the Rock Island will
abandon all of its fast freight trains which
were hauling packing house products be-
tween Omaha and Chicago The traffic de-
partment of the road has issued instructions
to it's agents not to solicit any more business
from the packers and not to accept any
more If 1t Is offered.
One of the officials of the company stated
tonight that the packing house products
traffic demanded extra service and the run
ming of freight trains at paSsenger-train
speed. This made the service so expensive
that other classes of traffic pay better.

Special Dispatch to The Star.

Speclal DlSpatcn TO Inc STAR.
PHILADELPHIA, December 16-Five
hundred young women, mainly employees of
department stores and downtown manu-
featuring firms of this city. have lost So $50
that they invested in branch No. l of the
Mulrey Christmas Club. Charles E. Fester
young man residing on Park avenue is
under $1,5O0 bail on charge of larceny
Fester was assistant secretary of the
branch, and. according to the statement Of
the detective who arrested him. he and
a woman living in Norristown expended the
working girls savings in round of pleas
ure to which they devoted one night of each
week.
Fester is employed at Gideon Sibleys
dental factory, 18th and Filbert streets,
and many girls working in that place were
fellowmembers of the association. Others
are scattered throughout the city.
Yesterday afternoon detective of the
Linden agency captured Fester as he was
about to enter the Sibley offices. He was
hailed before a magistrate, and after a
brief session the prisoner was held for court
in the amount named. He Is yet In Jail.
At the trial II was shown that the man OBJ
tanned from $50. $15 or $100 at various
times for the ostensibe purpose OF making
advances to the girls. None of these it is
said, was paid over.
Word was received late tonight from Nor
ristown that the woman in the case has
confessed and given to Fester his share of
It. The girls are up In arms and lack Of
Christmas remembrances for their friends
has brought grief into many homes.

TO ASK A CONFERENCE
VITAL ACTION OF ANTHRACITE
MINERS AT sHAMoKIN.

SHAMOkIN, Pa, December Is-At the
hnal session today of the tridistr,ct an
thraclte miners convention some onno-
sitlon developed on the action of the con-
Vention IN placing in the hands of a.
special committee the demands to be made
on the operators. President Mitchell ad-
dressed the delegates and stated that they
were unanimous when they voted to en-
power the special committee to present the
demands to the operators, but that il there
was any objection to the action taken he
would be glad to hear it voiced. Several
delegates offered protests against referring
important resolutions to the committee. but
the majority were in favor of yesterdays
action, and those who had protested stated
that they were willing that the committee
should act according to the decisions of
the convention
Although the convention was In session
but three days the delegates ACCOMPLISHED
considerable business of Importance to the
hard coal workers. The vital action was
the selection Of the special committee, COM
posed of President Mitchell and the men,
bers of the three district boards to meet
the operators and endeavor to agree upon
terms for the production of coal. The men
hope to secure the concession of an eight
hour working day, and what they regard
10 q ihol adjustment OF the wage
question, and above all, working agree
ment with the operators which really
means recognition Of the miners union.
Result Of the Convention.
The result of the convention will be in
effect the abolition of the Cancellation
board, which was appointed after the In
vestgations by the commission following
the strike of 1902. The strike eommission's
award will expire on April l next, and the
rniners for the most part have been opposed
to the workings of the conciliation board.
1t is therefore hoped that the committee
appointed at the convention just closed will
be able to reach an agreement with the
operators that shall be satisfactory to both
sides. Another convention will be held be-
fore April l, probably at Hazleton. to re-
ceive the report of the committee.
During the afternoon the committee met
for the purpose of considering how best to
bring the miners request for a conference
before the operators. What transpired at
the meeting was not made public. 1t is un-
however, that the request will
be in the hands of the operators not later
than next Monday.
President Mitchell left tonight for his
home in Spring Valley, ILL.,, where he ex-
poets to spend the Christmas holidays. The
of the special committee also de-
part tonight for their homes.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, December 16-The
governor of Jamaica. Sir Alexander SWEET
tenham. last night declared the Panama
canal zone proclaimed a place under
the immigrants protection law. under
which $5 deposit is required from each per-
son going there. This measure hampers the
operations of the recruiting agent of the
isthmian canal commissioners here. The
law is considered harsh, and indignation
is felt at the decision of the local au-
thorities to restrict the liberty Of the SUBJ
;ect
Under the same law emigration from ia
maica to Mexico Is practically impossible.
Each laborer must deposit $50 with the gov
ernment before being allowed to go there.

HOLDS ONLY ONE ASSET

Special Dispatch to The Star
MADISON, Wis, December 16.-For the
first time In his lift Robert NJ. La Toilette
has political bankruptcy staring him in the
fact with an unissued certificate of election
to the United States Senate as his only as
set.
Instead of leaving Wisconsin for Wash
ington in the limelight of success with
self-controlled session Of the Wisconsin
legislature behind him, Gov. La Toilette goes
to the capital bereft of issues and with his
political machine broken. He is a fallen
idol.
The special session which is to adjourn
Tuesday, from which Gov. La Toilette ex-
pected so much in the way OF political re-
suits instead of redounding to the credit
Of Gov. La Toilette, has but exhibited his
weakness in his home state, and the COVER
nor has suffered materially instead of being
benefited by the extra session. He wifi go
10 the Senate, despite report this week
that he would resign because of his series
of defeats in the legislature.
Downed by Chairman Connor.
While there are no acclaiming shouts Of
'1The King is dead. Long live the King"
among the politicians 1t is q recognized
fact nevertheless, that Chairman w. D.
Connor of the republican state central
committee and candidate for governor ad-
minfstered defeat to Gov. La Toilette that
has shaken the administration campaisn
from its foundations. This defeat is all
the more remarkable when consideration Is
given the fact that the administration lead
ers used desperate methods to win the day
It was craft against craft, a. machine
against machine, to determine a test of
leadership and strength, and Connor Won
Although the insurance investigation was
recommended by Gov. La Toilette the pro-
cedure planned and the control of the COM
mlttee are far from his liking The ad-
ministration resolution on this subject was
killed.

been appointed to the post In 1901. He is a

nent in republican politics for several years
The reappointment of Mr.. Devos will be
blow to the La Toilette men, who have
reckoned confidently on the collectorship
as plum TO which they would be entitled
in the distribution of federal patronage
The appointment was made first by Sena-
tor Quaries, and the La Toilette following
reckoned that the new senator would be
given this appointmen A large number

Locating Ore Bodies.

An interesting demonstration Of an
electrical method of locating ore bodies
was given recently at the Westminster
Palace hotel, London, at the invitation
OF Professor Sylvanus Thompson. The
process is the invention of Messrs. Daft
and Williams. and is claimed to have
proved it's practical value. An electric
current is passed through the ground
between two points, and by means Ut
telephone resonators, the direction and
force OF the current is observed, and the
presence OF a good conducting material,
such as a body OF galena or zine blende,
can be easily located. In a highly min
eralized district broken by numerous
faults and displacements it is difficult to
believe that this invention would have
much success, and it might lead to the
of numerous scattered and
v~alueless ore bodies.

Will Bear WatChing.

The press agent of the United States
Geological Survey probably "slipped a
cog" when he prepared his statement
for the newspapers concerning the pro-
duction OF gold and silver for 1903. 1t
would appear that he intended to assert
that Nevada showed the greatest per-
centage of increase among the gold and
silver producing states, though the
language used gives to Nevada the first
place in the total production of gold
and silver. The fact is, according to
the mint director, there were seven
states ahead of Nevada last year in gold
output, that is, including Alaska and
Arizona as states, and four states ahead
of Nevada in silver output. There is no
doubt that Nevada is rapidly regaining
her old position as a producer of silver
and gold, but she does not want credit
of any kind until she has earned it.
Undoubtedly, however, she will bear
watching this year and next-and there
