New York Alumni Plan to Raise Funds for
Rebuilding.

The New York alumni of Leland Stanford
University met last night at a dinner in the
Columbia University Club in Grameroy
Park. The purpose Of the meeting was to
form a national association OF Stanford
alumni, through which a sufficient sum
might be raised to rebuild one of the de-
molished university buildings.
The New York alumni have acted Jointly
with those Of Washington, d. c., in forming
this association. jackson E. REYNOLDS,
general counsel for the Central Railroad, of
New Jersey, was elected president, and
Bristow Adams Of Washington was made
treasurer.
A resolution was passed regulating the
subscription Of members Of the n ational
association to the rebuilding fund. Two
classes were recognized. Men Of the first
class, not earning any income, are looked
to only for voluntary contributions; those
Of the second GLASS are required to con-
tribute one per cent. Of their years income.
Among the sixty or moro alumni in WASH
ington there has been already thus raised
more than 1000. Among the New York
alumni, who number about seventy five.
81 900 has already been raised, and the ex-
.~pectation Is that with the receipt Of all the
subscriptions the amount will reach So, 900,
The officers Of the new society are proud of
this showing, as the university graduatedits
first class in 1896.
With the cooperation ofsother alumni,
particularly those Of the Pacific slope, thew
expect that about $1,000 o will be raised,
sufficient to rebuild either the chapel build.

The race for his successor is on, and Repre-
sentative Curtis is believed to be far in the

Gov Hoch IL not training with the Long
Curtis element. The appointment of any
man other than Curtis would seriously
disturb political plans.
1t was this state Of affairs that was pre-
scented informally to members of the SEN
ate COMMITTEES On Privileges and Elections
yesterday as a reason for keeping Burton
In his seat until autumn, or until a Legis-
lature had been elected. But the exigencies

Representative Curtis, who has more than
a fair chance OF coming to the Senate, Is

UNION NOT RECOGNIZED.
Anthracite Operators Reply to MitcheIps
scranton Speech.

The anthracite operators have taken
exception to the following assertions made
by President. Mitchell OF the United Mine
Workers in addressing a convention OF the
mine workers in Scranton recently In ref
erence to the settlement Of the anthracite
strike:
you have taken a most advanced step
and have secured for yourselves advantages
never before enjoyed In the history OF your

lea but with it's officers.
In reply the following statement was
issued yesterday on behalf OF the opera
tors: 80
ment Of the anthracite GOAL controversy
constituted even In a remote degree recognl-
ton OF the mine workers union. Mr..
Mitchell has told his followers that the posi-
ton of the union was stronger than ever,
owing to the fact that the operators had
signed a formal agreement with ". In
some paris Of the anthracite region this has
already given rise to attempts to exclude
non.union men from unemployment:
THE negotiations between the anthracite
coal operators and their employees show
that the arrangement recently concluded
involved no further concessions to the
United Mine Workers regarding Its standing
than was involved in the strike settlement
Of 1902. This arrangement does not con-
stltute an agreemen Mt with That organization
or with any one protesting to represent 1t.
At no point whatever was the, existence OF
the union recognized and even when the final
arrangement was made 1t was merely one
between the respective companies and their
own employees.
"The negotiations which ended in the
settlement Of May 7 were begun by a letter
from Mr.. Mitchell to the presidents OF a
number OF coal companies inviting them to
meet a committee appointed at a oonven-
ton representing the anthracite coal mine
workers of Pennsylvania, including the COM
pany of which you are president The
stipulation signed on May z set forth that
in 1902 'all questions at issue between the
respective companies and their employees,
whether they belong to a union or not, and
an to the conditions OF employment be-
tween the respective companies and their
employees had been submitted to and de-
cided by the strike commission.
"Itisthe commission award on this basis
thatjhas been continued in force until March
81, 1909. By signing the stipulation with
a committee representing their own en-
ployees for the continuance OF the terms OF
the award the coal companies in no way
enhanced or in any way changed the stand
inc OF the mine workers union.
AS thisis issue NAV become an exceedingly
important one in the future, it is deemed
advisable to emphasize the facts stated
above while the incidents connected with
the recent settlement are fresh in the pub
