rise, and the rest Of the convention fol-
lowed his example. Governor johnson
welcomed the Federation and wished 1t
God-speed in It's work for the uplifting
of the laboring men of the Uhited
States.
President Gompers, in responding,
pointed out that even in times of great
prosperity many people felt the pinch
of want. ''This is not the result OF
some unknown law" he said, "but o.
mismanagement, and it is for Us Il

William Rufus Shafter, was born at
Galesburg, Mich, October 16, 1885.
His early youth was spent on a farm
and his only education was such as was
afforded by the district schools. He
was a diligent student, however, and
improved his spare time by reading all
books that came his way. He was
teaching school when the war broke out
in 1861 and gave up his position to be-
come first lieutenant in the 7th Michigan
Infantry. He served through the en-
tire war and at its close was brevetted
brigadier general for gallant and merit
orious services. Two years after ne
was mustertered out of the volunteer
service he entered the regular army as
lieutenant colonel. On March 2, 1867,
he was breveted colonel and given the
congressional medal Of honor for gal
liant service at the battle of Fair Oaks,
Va. The years after the war were
spent in the service mostly at the army
posts on the frontier. At the outbreak
of the war with Spain General Shafter
was in charge of the department of
California. In May, 1898, he was made
major-genneral of volunteers and was
sent to Cuba, where he commanded the
military operations that ended in the
capitulation of Gen. Linares' army and
the surrender of Santiago de Cuba.
Upon returning to the United States
General Shafter commanded the de-
partments of California and Columbia
until his retirement from active service
June 80, 1901. Since that date he has
made his home at Bakersfield.

TO ENFORCE ElGHT-HOUR LAW.
Circular of instructions Issued to United
States Attorneys.

Washington, November 13. -Attor-
ney General Moody today issued cir
cular letter of instructions to United
States attorneys regarding prosecutions
of violations of the eight-hour law, in
which he says the government is de-
termined upon strict enforcement of
this statute as relating to public works
of the United States.
All United States attorneys are d.
rected diligently to investigate all COM
plants which may come to them from
any source of violation of the law, and
upon their own initiative to make inves-
tigation if there appears any reasonable
ground for suspecting violation, and
where sufficient evidence can be secur-
ed it must be submitted to a grand jury
with view to securing an Indictment.
o. j. Carlton, a lawyer, of Haverhill,
Mass, has been appointed by the At
torney General to have special charge
of these cases in the Department Of
Justice. 1t is stated that within the
last two or three months about three
hundred cases of alleged violations of
the eight-hour law were brought to the
attention Of the Department.

the immigrant train to pass.


One report is that the engineer OF the
freight train had been informed that
the passenger train was running IN TWO
sections; the other is that the first Sec
ton of the passenger train carried no
lights or signals of any kind indicating
that section was close behind.
AS soon as the first section OF the
immigrant train had passed the switch
at Babcock, the freight train started
eastward. A light snow was falling
which increased the darkness Of the
early morning, and as the freight was
rounding a sharp curve just west OF
Woodville, the second section OF the
immigrant train came into sight a short
distance away, tearing toward Chicago
at the rate of forty miles an hour. The
two trains came together with unslack-
ened speed, and in the crash six pas
senger coaches and several freight cars
were knocked into kindling wood, and,
together with the locomotives, went
rolling down the ten foot embankment.

Berlin, Nov. 1S.-Contrary to expec-

likely that many days will pass before
the government and the opposition
clash.
The usual pomp and display attended
the opening.
Chancellor Won Buelow has apparent

will not oppose popular sentiment.

Chicago, November 12.-More than
one-half the passengers on an irnrnl-
grant train on the Baltimore and Ohio
were killed or injured in collision to-
day between a passenger train and a
freight near Woodville, Ind.
One hundred and sixty-fve passen-
gers were on the train. Of these forty
seven were killed outright or burned to
death in a fire that broke out in the
wreckage Immediately after the collis-

probably never be known, as forty-five
of the bodies were consumed In the
flames, or were so badly burned that
Identification will be out of the question.
Thirty-eight people were injured, and
several of these viii die. Eighty others
escaped unhurt, but lost nearly ali their
baggage and clothing.
DUE TO EMPLOYEES BLUNDER
The disaster was caused by blunder
of some employe of the railroad COM
pany, but just where blame lies has not,
as yet, been determined. The passenger
train. which was loaded with Russian
Jews, Servians and Poles, all of them
recent arrivals in this country, and bound
