GRUENER TO RETIRE.
AFTER TWENTY YEARS ACTIVE
 SERVICE IN THE GRABS

Contest for the office of Captain
 Gruener May be Placed on the stan
 of Colonel James Geddes--ElectiOn to
 be Held August l.
 The New Haven Grays at their meet ing on Wednesday evening, August l, will select a successor to Captain Ed ward o. Gruener, who has signified his intention of retiring from the company after twenty years active service.
 Captain Gruener is now on a trip with the Grays' rife squad to Wake field, Mass. where the team has secur- ed further honors.
 Captain Gruener at the head of the New Haven Grays. has been a most active worker and is a very popular and efficient officer of the company. His efforts for the benefit of the company have been untiring and unselfsh, and he is held in highest esteem.
 Regarding the success of Captain Gruener several names have been men, tioned including the name of eX-Lieu- tenant w. Perry Curtiss and First Lieutenant B. L, Fox. Some of the vet erans would like to see Mir. Curtiss nominated while the present members of the company are strong in their pref erence for First Lieutenant F. l.. Fox
 The retirement of Captain Gruener will also make some other changes and will probably mean the elevation of F, G. Crabb and Judge R, H. Tyner in the company.
 It is expected that Captain Gruener will also receive a staff appointment at the hands of Colonel James Geddes Captain Gruener has been a leader in rifle practice and would probably look well as inspector of small arms prac- tice.

ORGANIZATION LEADERS.

Pittsburg, Pa, Feb. 15.-Intense in
terest is manifested among local Ia
Dor men in the joint conference which
will be held In the old city hall this
evening under the joint auspices of
the Industrial Workers of the World
and the American Federation of La
Dor.
The meeting is a result of an attack
which was made at meeting of the
Industrial Workers of the World on
December Ia, 1905, upon the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor and its ma
tional and international unions. The
Industrial Workers offered to prove
that the American Federation of La
Dor was mo good" and the challenge
was taken up by Thomas H. Flynn. the
national organizer of the Federation
of Labor He invited T.. r. Markley,
representing the Industrial Workers
of the World. socialist organization,
to hold joint melting and to discuss
the assertion OF the Industrial Work
ers and give them an opportunity to
prove the correctness of their state
ment. The debate will be conducted
by Markley and Lynn, but il is ex-
pected that there will be many other
prominent labor leaders belonging to
both sides who may take part in the
discussion.

UNITED STATES WILL fight CHINA
FOR AMERICAN LIVES AND RIGHTS
Our Troops Rushing to the Far East and WarShps Are De-
tached and Are Steaming For Chinese Waters--Rapid
Preparations For Our Fight With Almond Eyes.

Washington, d. c., Feb. 15.-The
United States is preparing for war
with China.
The army is being put on a war foot
ing and trouble is expected at any
time.
Orders have also been issued to in
crease the naval contingent in the
orient.
The term war" is not employed by
the officials of the war and state de-
partments in discussing the situation.
For the present it seems best to speak
of the trouble as a native uprising" {"
and of the preparations as for the
protection of American citizens and
interests" in China.
1t is not denied, however, that the
preparations are going forward, and
that the situation is regarded here as
very grave. Neither Is it denied that
President Roosevelt, himself, is re-
spOnsible for the course which is be-
ing pursued.
That the need for action is urgent,
is shown i'll no uncertain terms by eff
forts made by Secretary of War Taft

FIGHT STARTS OUT FIERCE
Teller and Patterson Work
Against Bill With Might
and Main.
A FEW LESS INTERESTING ITEMS

ashington. Feb. 15.-At o'clock
this afternoon the senate began the
consideration of the joint statehood
al. Dick spoke in support of the bill,
FIRST explaining the committee amend
ments and then presenting the rea-
sons for consolidating Oklahoma with
Indian Territory and Arizona with
New Mexico.
Dick devoted especial attention to
the contention that the act creating
Arizona had made provision lor ulti-
mate conversion of the territory into a
state. He contended that this was
not a pledge for preservation of ter
ritorial lines.
Dick said that everybody recognized
that Oklahoma and Indian Territory
are prepared for admission, and he
thought that everybody acquainted
with the facts ought to agree that
without consolidation New Mexico and
Arizona are not prepared to assume
duties of statehood.
1t seems probable that many speech
es will be made. Senator Penrose of
Pennsylvania and Delegate Andrews OF
New Mexico, is taking the active part
in the fight for jointure, while Smith
and Mcclure of Arizona are in the tick
of the battle against jointure. Senat-
lors Patterson and Teller of Colorado

position to the bill

New York. Feb. 15.-The conferences

be made to formulate an agreement
between the employers and the men.
to go into effect April 9st, when the

which is made up of the mine work.
ers' executive boards of the three an
thracite districts. President Mitchell
is chairman Of this committee.
Demands to be Made.
The propositions to be presented t0
the mine operators by the union rep
resentatives today have not been made
public but more or less accurate re-
ports of their nature have leaked out
1t has been learned that among the
proposals to be submitted are those
for an eight hour day, without any
reduction in wages for all employees
paid by the hour, day or week; a uni
form wage scale in the three anthra-
cite districts for the different classes
of employees; adequate compensation
for dead work performed by contract
miners; increase of wages of from 10
to 20 per cent for all company men;
adoption of a system by which the
coal shall be paid for by weight
wherever practicable; and recognition
of the union. Before they went into
the conference today the operators
and representatives OF the men were
hopeful of an amicable agreement
The operators are a unit against the
recognition of the miners association,
but II is understood that if the oper-
ators are reasonably liberal, from the
miners point of view, and an agree
ment is in sight, the union will not
push the organization to the front and
press fo rits recognition.
