Chicago goes on record in its city

alton of street railways, but in favor
of issuing $75,000,000 of Mueller law

dermen on the side of high license.
David S. Rose, Democratic candidate
for a fifth term as mayor OF MilWau-
kee, was defeated by Sherman NJ. Beck
er, the young Republican candidate
who swept all before him, drawing
largely from the vote the Social Demo-
Gratis expected.

MINERS STRIKE NOTES.

MINERS STRIKE NOTES.
The big strike of 509,500 miners has
gone into effect. Only those will re-
turn whose employers grant the 1903
wage scale.
The extent of the coal strike in the
bituminous fields was reduced by more
than half through the action of the
miners convention in Indianapolis,
which decided that the miners shall be
allowed to work for operators who are
willing to grant the demands of the
men.
It is stated at the White House that
the president has made a reply to the
telegram received from the coal oper-
ators, and while the text will not be
made public, there is authority for
the statement that the president has
decided not to interfere as long as
conditions remain as they now are.
Members Of the Illinois Coal 'Operat-
'Ors' association declare they will keep
up the fight with the miners all sum-
mer unless restrictions placed upon
them are removed.
Anthracite miners admit their de-
mands are greater than they expect,
and il the operators will meet them
half way quick settlement is likely.
