the record for commanding more
teams than any other leader in the
business.

guilty of murder in the first degree

The trial lasted three and one half

ing stold and apparently indifferent.
When the verdict was made known to
him today, he simply nodded his head
and whispered to the interpreter. is
there no appeal?" then his chin sank
on his breast and he made no further
comment.
When the jury had been polled the
judge thanked them for having done
their duty and expressed his approval
of the verdict. The attorney for the

IN IMPORTANT CONFERENCE AT

MAY BE MADE.
AMENDMENTS PROPOSED
Roosevelt Desirous of Havinr Con

Observation-Disclosures and
Labor Consi derad.

Washington. March f2-An import
aEt conference was held at the White
House last night, aud, in a sense, cen
tinued today respecting amendments
10 the Sherman antitrust law
Changes in the law, 1t is expected,
will be proposed along lines suggest ed
by the conference OF the civic fedora,
ton in Chicago a few weeks ago The
president, it. is understood. is d.
sirous that bill embod wing the con,
clusions of the conference, if any be
reached, be submitted to congress fer
passage at this session.
Participating in the conference
were the president Secretary Root,
Secretary Garfield. Attorney General
Bonaparte, Commissioner of Corpora
tions Smith Seth Low. Samuel Com
pers, Victor Morawetz. general coun.
sci of The Santa Fe railway; Francis
Lind Stetson of J. P. Morgan and
company, New York
1t Is said that the proposed changes
would mean practically a regeneration
of the Sherman antitrust act The
particular interest of labor officers Is
to secure an amendment to the Sher-
man law which will exempt them from
tactical operation of the act as con.
spiracies in restraint of trade.
Amendments were proposed relat
tt,rr to l,. x,F Al .lr
proyinding that pooling, under proper
re estrictions, ought to be permitted by
law. II also was suggested that con
solldations and traffic arrangements
ought not to be permitted By connect.
ing lines under such arrangements as
would permit of business of that
privilege
An important amendment was also
proposed by which there would be
further regulation of corporations
doing interstate BUSINESS and provid
ing for reports from such officers TO
the department of commerce and
labor, along lines of reports now
made by railroads to the interstate
commerce commission.
1t was pointed out that with the en-
actment of the amendment proposed.
the government might begin anwe its
work of dealing with corporations. In
fact, 1t was proposed that prosecu-
tions now In contemplation by the
government againstc operations un-
der the provisions of the Sherman act,
be abandoned if the proposed amend
ments should be enacted into law.

MINERS STRIKE
SEEMS CERTAIN
NATIONAL CONVENTION OF MINE
WORKERS REcoNvENEs IN
INDIANAPOLIS.
THREE JOINT MEETINGS.
OF Miners and Operators Have Al
ready Been Hed-No Satisfactory
Wage Agreement Has Been
Reached.

indianapolis, Ind, March 12.--The
national convention OF the United
Mine Workers of America reconVened
in this city today TO make another
attempt to decide upon a policy TO be
existing wage agreement with the op-
orators will expire. Three joint con
ferences of operators and miners have
already been held without result. aud
six months has been wasted in futile
argument and strategic sparring. If
no better results are accomplished at
the present meeting general strike
in all probability will follow.
Has John Mitchell retiring presi-
dent of the United Mine Workers,
more influence than Tow l.. Lewis,
president-elect, who Is to take office
the first Of next month? On the an
swer is believed to depend the ques.
tion of whether there will be gener,
al suspension of bituminous coal min.
ing in western Pennsylvania, Ohio, In.
diana and Illinois.
The question of the influence of the
two leaders is to be fought out in the
convention which began today, and
adherents of both are prepared for a
lively contest. If Mitchell carries the
convention the operators in Indiana
and Illinois will be allowed to settle
with their miners as separate states
or Jointly as they may elect. If Lewis
wins the suspension viii be general.
The operators in Ohio are said Il
favor strike. They have millions OF
tons of coal on hand. and, should q
strike take place, they believe they
can dispose of a large part of 1t IN
Indiana and Illinois markets.
The operators in Illinois and Indiana
have practically come TO an under
standing, and they do not want a gen
eral suspension. They feel that the
situation hinges entirely on whether
President Mitchell can carry his pol
ICY through convention.
Three propositions are before the
miners convention for consideration
and action. The first is to proceed at
once to frame the wage demands and,
having completed that task, to issue
a call for a joint wage conference be
tween operators and miners of the
states Interested.
The second proposition Is to draft
wage demands and issue calls for
Joint wage conferences with the opera
tors by districts.
The third proposal Is to shut down
all of the mines in one big strike, and
thus try to force settlement by com
petitiye districts.
