USEFULNESS IN SALVADOR
IMPAIRED BY QUARREL,

WASHINGTON, June 1s.-Feeung
that his usefulness as American con-
sui at San Salvador has been impaired,
the state department has decided to
lind another post for John Jenkins.
This officer became embroiled in the
quarrel between Nicaragua and Saliva
dor and is now in Washington. having
been summoned here to explain the
matter. Samuel E. Magill, at present
American consul at Tampico, Mexico,
will be transferred to San Salvador,
where Mr.. Jenkins has been stationed
since 1897.
The appointment announced yester-
day of Percival H. Dodge, at present
secretary Of the American embassy at
Toxic, Japan, to fill the new post Of
minister to Guatemala, created by the
last session of congress as an Incl
dent to the redivision of the Central
American republics leaves a vacancy
at Toxic that will probably be filled
by the transfer Of Peter Augustus Jay
from the American embassy at Con-
stantinople. This change will afford
an opportunity for the state depart
ment to reward Philip M Brown, at
present secretary OF the American le-
cation at Guatemala and Honduras for
services rendered in bringing about
the termination Of the war between
Salvador and Nicaragua. Mr.. Brown
is said to be a linguist of ability and
| particularly valuable to the state de-
| partment because Of his knowledge Of
Oriental languages. He Will probably
be sent to Constantfnople.

Drill! Surbanite, Drill!

The fire at the power house last
Monday evening put the Duluth
Heights street car service out Of busi-
ness, as it did the service Of the en-
tire city. It reminded the old resi-
dents Of the suburb of the days when
they were obliged to hike" to and
from their homes, and for time it
looked as if the old routine was to
be re- established. However, the Off
Gals Of the street railway company,
were early at the scene, and as soon
as the fire was extinguished men were
put to work and the rubbish about
the machinery was soon removed.
Chief Engineer Carson, an expert in
his line, brought his ingenuity into
service, and at exactly 11.3O, three
hours after the fire was discovered,
enough Juice" was put through the
wires to put partial service into ef-
feet.

ested in this program for a number of
years, and he brought to the conven-
ton long experience and ripe judy
n,ent in the determination of the ques-
tons at issue. The work done by Mr..
Baker and his committee was the
most important in the convention, and
it is expected that much good will re-
suit from their labors.
Proud Of Our Boys.
Space will not permit in this issue
of the review of the work done by all
of the members of the Duluth dele
cation. It was so good that it is diff
cult to specify 1t and do justice to all.
While there were not committee ap-
pointments for all, the delegates not
having committee work to do, found
plenty of work in the convention.
Delegate Barr was ready and ac-
tive debator on several important
resolutions. He made a good impress
sion. Delegates Granger, Of the Ma
chinists' union; Marandan, Proulx,
Feyling, Nolan and Hood Of the Dock
and Ship Carpenters; Fencil, McKin-
non, and Mork, Of the Carpenters and
Joiners; Harbour and O'Mara, of the
builders laborers: Holford, of the
electrical workers; Gilleland Of the
engineers; Bradley, Of the painters;
Dillon Of the switchmen, and Potter,
Of the steamf1tters, all made good rep
resentat1ves from their organizations.
They were at their seats at roll call.
and none of them lost an opportunity
to do the right thing at the right time
in the interest of labor. Martin
Olmem and Ernest Peters, of the
trades assembly, were certainly most
active, both In and out Of the conven-
ton. Olmem aided in the reorganiza-
ton Of the printers union at st.
Cloud.
The next convention will be held at
W1nona, and it is hoped that plans
Will be- made by every Duluth union
to be represented at that convention
We know that every delegate at the
ST. Cloud convention will be booster
for the next meeting.

Joke On Jas. Walsh Turned The Other
Way,


The Duluth delegates from the st.
main over at Brainerd last Wednes-
day evening, and while laying about
the depot awaiting the coming of their
train, the more frolicsome OF the dele
cation began to cut up capers on
those who were drowsily lounging
about the station seats. A lumber
man in the depot had small mud
turtle, and President w. J. Hunt, of
the Trades Assembly, Immediately
saw a chance for joke. He offered
the lumber jack so cents for the tur-
tie, which was promptly accepted.
Hunt stole about slowly, and quietly
slipped the turtle in Jane Walsh's
coat pocket. Walsh tumhled that
something was UP, and Immediately
became very wise. The other dele
gates were impatiently waiting for
him to put his nand in the pocket,
but Jim very mechanically avoided
any such foolish work. Finally AL
derman Shartel asked Walsh for a
cigar, and the latter, who always car
ries them in his coat pocket, very
discreetly worked his hand into the
wrong pocket, pulling out the cigar
but paying no attention to the giggles
o fthe other delegates.
Finally the lumber jack and Walsh
held conference without letting the
others in on it, and Walsh very
quickly passed the turtle back to its
original owner. The delegates grew
impatient. and after getting on the
train they began to let the cat out Of
the bag. Hunt colored up a bit, but
the climax came when Walsh advised
the Trades Assembly president to look
in his grip. There, was nothing doing
after that, and No., delegate on the
train could be induced to open his
grip for fear the lost turtle would be
found there. Hunt lost his turtle anG
the 30 cents. The lumber jack was 81
cents ahead, and Jim Walsh is havine
a good time telling the other fellows
how 1t happened.

the necessity Of the cooperation of
the farmers with the unions. He in
diligently reviewed the situation and
made one of the strongest addresses
of the convention. He was warmly
applauded.
McEwen Goes to Bethel.
Mr. McEwen will attend the meet
ing at Bethel on July 4.
AS was stated at the beginning Of
this story Of the convention, the Du-
luth delegation did itself proud. Jas.
Walsh was chairman Of the delega-
tion and he watched every move with
his characteristic eagle eye. He made
good in everything he undertook, and
from the time the gavel fell at the
opening Of the convention until the
motion to adjourn was put, he was
at his seat, ready at all times to COM
municate with the other members Of
the delegation.
Joseph Shartel was the strong
member of the committee on resolu-
tons, and his judgment and advice to
have weight with the other members
of the committee. He was the father
of the contitutional amendment which
he first introduced at Brainerd, then
at Stillwater, and later with success
at this convention, which changes the
complexion of the Federation Council.
Fisher Was Game.
Big Frank Fisher, of the Electrical
Workers union, held the winning card
on the committee on officers reports
It was six to one against him, but
Fisher fought his way single-handed
and alone, ultimately winning his
point. Several recommendations from
officers were before his committee,
and some of these caused considerable
feeling, but Fisher saw his duty and
he went to it with a will and deter
roination that won for him the admir-
alton and respect of his associates.
Edward Lowe, Of the Carpenters
union, was kept busy Sunday and
Monday on the Credentials commit
tee. His work was done with merit
and dispatch, and the convention later
rewarded him by electing him vice.
PRESIDENT from the ninth ccngression-
al district.
1t was Alexander Kennedys first
convention, but he took ir the pro-
