AGENTS REAP HARVEST
Erie Trains Are Carrying
Many Immigrants Back
to Europe.

That the steamship agents in the
west are reaping rich harvest is an
indisputable fact. For the last month
or SO, all the Erie through trains have
carried coach load after coach load of
immigrants returning to their native
lands. 1t develops that this class OF
labor is practically out of work. For
the most part the foreigners are en-
ployed in construction and general con-
tract work, and, for last few months
work in this line has been slack. An
other noticeable feature is that those
who are returning are those who have
been in the country some time. The
ocean companies offer special rates for
large numbers and the agents are
busily engaged in the work of collect
ing the crowds.

RAILROADS ANTICIPATE
FURTHER ACTIVITY
New York Central Orders Work To BE
Resumed on Cars.

That the railroads are not only find
ing money easier, but are looking for
ward to the former activity of business
on the part of large shappers. is proved
by the efforts being made to get the
idle cars in shape again. The New York
Central has ordered work to be re-
sumed on an order for 2,000 steel cars
which was placed last summer and
which was held up during the financial
stringency.

MAY REVOKE CHARTER
Mine Workers Refuse to Let
Indiana Men Return
To Work.
CONFERENCE A FAILURE.

Terre Haute, Ind, Aug. 25- En-
tangled in a deadlock which was i'm
possible to break the members of the
executive board of the United Mine
Workers of District No. II, after a
long conference with T. L. Lewis, ma
tional president of the union last night
again refused to allow the men to re-
turn to work at the Hudson mine I'M
til the driver, over whom the dispute
started, is reinstated. The afternoon
conference was unsuccessful and the
meeting last night accomplished moth
ing more. This leaves the matter
just where it was before the meetings
were held.
President Lewis advocated that the
men return to work pending a settle
ment, but the miners refuse to do this.
They say that they will return as soon
as the driver is reinstated.
This puts the matter up to President
Lewis. Whether he will revoke the
charter of the local union as he threat
ened, or not remains to be seen.

PREDICTED BRYAN AND
KERN WOULD RUN
9ushviIIe Democrat Has Wise
Head.

Rushville, Ind, Aug. 25.-H. A. Kra-
mer of this city is the original Bryan
and Kern man. Mr.. Kramer predicted
four years ago that w. ]. Bryan and
John w. Kern would lead the ticket
of the democratic party in 1908. Mr..
kramer's prediction is not one of tho
kind, Il told you So" but he has evil
dence that he made the prediction.
In the last presidential campaign a
number of local democrats were dis
satisfied with the ticket and Mr. Kra-
mer was among this number. He told
several of his friends that w. J. Bry-
an and John w. Kern would make a
better running pair and that he was
sure they would be chosen in 1908
He believed in his prediction so much
that when Bryan visited here in 1904.
instead of putting up Parker and Dav-
is decorations, Mr.. Kramer had a
large banner painted bearing the
words Bryan and Kern in 1905"
