 Mexico City. June 17.--Chiei Engineer Miller in charge of the construction o' the Pan American Railway, now act iyeay building down to the border or Guatemala, thinks there is possibility of the revolution now in progress in Guatemala. cutting off temporarily the supply of labor, though he is not aware of ore sent conditions in the State Of chiapas, having just returned from California. He expects the road to be conpleted to San Benito. which Is the port of Tapachoula by July, next year. when it will be quick work completing the line to the Guatemalan border, the country being level
 Advices from Guatemala City show that the Government regards the pro- jected attempt of the revolutionary General Leon Castillo to capture the port of San Jose with the aid of the steamer Empire City as foredoomed to failure. San Jose Is we'll fortified and can resist any attack from the ship, which is not an armed cruiser.
 The revolutionists are sanguine of success and predict a speedy movement on Guatemala City, which will be be- sieged if necessary There is no doubt of the financial strength of the revo- lutionists, who are able to buy arms in large quantities.

BIRTH OF THE PARTY
CELEBRATION OF ANNIVERSARY OF
 THE REPUBLICAN.
In Same Hall fin Philadelphia Dele gates Gathered To Remember Or ganisation That Put Frement
 nfffn Field

Philadelphia June 17.-In the same
 assembly room in Musical Fund Hall,
 where on June iZth. 1856. the Repub-
 lican party opened its first national
 convention which named Fremont and
 Dayton as it's presidential ticket, there
 gathered today hundreds of Republi-
 cans from different sections of the
 country to commemorate the event.
 It was the opening meeting of the four days celebration of the hftieth anniversary of the Republican Party in the auspices of the National Repub- lican League which begins It's annual convention here tomorrow, The old hall which has changed little since the first convention was held within It's walls was crowded with enthusiastic Republicans who cheered every time the name of any of the Republican Presi- dents were mentioned.
 Among those who participated in tho exercises were 152 men, who had voted for Fremont for President. The ap- pearance of the old men, some of them could hardly walk. was the occasion of lcng and enthusiastic applause In the ranks of the 152 was Q delegate, who proposed the name of Abraham Lin- coln for Vice President but as the H. linois man was not we'll known the nomination went to Dayton. The dele gates from Texas, Illinois, Missouri and Arkansas to tomorrow's convention attended in a body
 While the meeting today commeno- rated the beginning of the first con- vention, 1t was devoted largely to ad- dresses in memory of Abraham Lincoln. Speaker Cannon. of the National House of Representatives and Secretary of tho Treasury Shaw. who were to make addresses, wer eunable to be present.
 Governor Pennypacker of Pennsylva- mia, presided and introduced the Rev. E. M Levy, Baptist clergyman os shls city who delivered the invocation at the opening of the convention fifty years ago and performed u like service today, after which Governor Ponny- packer delivered an address.
 The Governor briefly reviewed the of the Republican Party and said:
 Let us not forget that the province of the Republican Party, the outcome of the highest wisdom, has been to con- struct and to upbuild. Cleanliness and decency are among the latest human and American life has not yet reached it's farthest stage of devel- opment. Correct the evils which may have arisen in transportation. but do not forget that the ssytem as estab- lished has created Chicago and St. Louis and has peopled the West Cleanse wherever necessary, put preserve. If there be an occasional individual among us who is too rich, the policy of the Republican Party which has given him this opportunity has likewise given comfort and solace to the millions n, prosperous people"
 Historical papers were read by VII liam Barnes, Sr., of New York. who displayed flag which covered Lin coln's bier as his body lay in state at Albany; Dr. Robert Reyburn, of Wash. lngton, who attended both Lincoln and Garfield. and Jacob Weand, of Beaver.

 Besides offering special inducements for d portion of the farmers trade, the association hopes to correct rail- road and corporation abuses where they exist, and proposes to work mar moniously and unanimously for the upbuilding of shefield. whose future already seems brighter than at any time in It's history, but not to the det- riment and injury of any other city or town in the county.
 Lack of cooperation and want of concert of action heretofore have probably had their i'll effects. and these are to be overcome by unity of thought and cooperative civic prile and industry

MINERS TO CONFER
WAGE SCALE TO BE SUBMITTED
 TODAY.
Little Interest Taken In Matter By Most of Operators and President Mayben VIII Not He Repre-
 MeufAd.

Birmingham. June 17-(Special J. Notwithstanding the fact that the union miners in this state are in mine employers are considered, much interest Is being taken as to the out come of the joint conference between operators and miners which will be held Monday morning at II o'clock. The wage scale adopted Friday in the convention of the miners. and which. by the way is being kept from public mention. will be formally presented at this conference.
 As has been stated there is but lit- tie difference in the new scale and the one in effect now. but any differnce whatsoever, whether it be differentials or what not. Is likely to bring on some discussion. No trouble Is anti cipated. however, between those opera tors recognizing the union men and the miners The statement is made that there is very little, difference between the new and prsent wage scales be- cause the miners were not in executive session but an hour in considering and adopting same when heretofore four and five hours and even a day or two were taken to discuss and adopt a scale for presentation at the joint confer ence.
 There is no telling at this time exact 1y what representatives of the com mercial coal companies will be at the meeting tomorrow Some of the min CTS still have hopes that some furnace companies might become interested in the new scale J. c. Maben, president of the -Shefield Steel and Iron Company when spoken to by a report CT on the subject of the convention of the miners. did not speak as if there might be a representative of his com pany at the conference nor was there any Likelihood of his company making a contract with the union miners.
 Mir. Maben took exceptions to that part of the speech made by ". F. Fairley, national board member of the Uaited Mine Workers of America, in which the insinuation was made that D. IT. Bacon's resignation as president of the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Rail- road Company, was brought about by the strike of the union miners and the shortage of coal production in conss- quence.
 While 1t is believed that all commer- eial coal companies in this district which have contracts now with the union miners will s.gn the contract again, if there are no material chang es, 1t is not believed there will be a large attendance at the joint confer ence tomorrow but instead the coal com pany officials can call at the general offices of the union and there sign their contracts if they see fit. Some of the coal operators will be on hand however, Col. T. c. Bush, president of the Alabama Consolidated Coal and Iron Company, will be present,
 He has been dealing with the union miners for a number of years and there has been no strike at his mines. He has been having local troubles though, Is stated, and he may contend for
