In its reply to the demands submitted
by the subcommittee OF the United Mine
Workers OF America, the anthracite coVa-
mittee says, after reviewing the finding
OF the arbitration commission in 1902:

shop, and again. decline TO make an agree

not been realized.

at is needless to recapitulate the rea-
sons given by the anthracite coal strike
commission for refusing an eight-hour
day. We might justly say that, with the
experience OF the past three years. the
1O-hour day should be restored: but we
are willing 10 abide by the decision of the
commission.
1T is well known that the miners do
not average eight hours a day and. there
fore. the rejection of this demand does
not affect them, neither can It be seriously
contended that the average time of other
employees is excessive.

MEAT LAW EFFEC i've MONDAY
Owners of Many of the Smaller Plants
Are Vow cIamoring for
Inspection.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2s.-Beginning Oc-
tooerI the railroads will refuse to accent
meat In interstate commerce which does
not bear the proper stamp OF inspection
from the Department OF Agriculture. Re-
alizing at the last minute that their bust
ness may be seriously hindered by the pro-
visions of the new meat inspection law.
many small packers have applied to secre
tary Wilson and his associates within the
last few days to- inspect their plants and
grant them the much coveted inspection
stamp. But large number of these pack
ers will be disappointed. A rumor gained
circulation several days ago that an extern
sion of the time for the full enforcement
OF the law had been granted by Secretary
wilson, but this was erroneous and all
firms which have not obtained inspection
must suffer after Monday next.
Between July and the present time the
Department Of Agriculture has appointed
1000 meat inspectors. rs per cent CT whom
are veterinarians Before July there were
only 7S3 inspectors in the employ of the
government. Several hundred additional
men will be required to meet the demands
upon the government for inspection Be-
fore July there was government inspection

now under government supervision.
Secretary Wilson said tonight that many
OF these houses have made extensive Inn

tary condition OF many of the establish

Adjunct for Airship,
When It comes to getting improvements
on his airship, Omaha seems to be the
right place for Mr.. Hamilton. He has al
ways felt the necessity OF having a clutch
on the engine Of his ship, having been
considerably inconvenienced by the fact that
the propeller has to be put in motion with
the engine. In Minneapolis. Des Moines
and other cities, Mr.. Hamilton has tried
to have a clutch made, but was informed
by all of whom he inquired, that it would
weigh twelve or fifteen pounds. AS Mr..
Hamilton carries ballast OF only forty
pounds. he could not AFFORD to cut II down
that much. The shop OF II. E. Frederick
son has turned out a clutch which weighs
fve and three-quarter pounds, and has
fitted it to the engine. 1t was tried Friday
afternoon and proved a success. The
engine can now be started and the pro-
peller put In motion after the engine ha $
got good speed. Mr.. Hamilton will
