IN STRIKE ON C. P. LINES
sy Associated Press,

sy Associated Press.
TORONTO, Aug. GA conservative
estimate today places the number of
men out on strike in the Canadian Pa
eific railroad shops throughout Canada
at over 5000.
A great mass meeting of strikers
was held here tonight. 1t is expected
the international officers will be here
shortly. The demands of the striking
mechanics are: Reduction of hours
from ten to nine; to do away with
the merit mark system used in connec-
tion with time clerks in the works;
that machinists be paid on the 18th of
each month instead of on the goth, as
now; that the company cease its al
legged endeavors to disrupt the mechan-
ics' unions.
The men say they are satisfied with
the present wages. but hope for better
in the future. While on strike the
pay would be for those on strike 81
per week. The officials refuse to say
whether steps will be taken to fill the
places of the men or whether overtures
will be made.
The two opposing forces in the big
Canadian Pacific railroad mechanics
strike have cut off all hope of reconcil-
iation. None of the mechanics in the
shops is on duty. Only a number of
wipers were at work last night and
today foreigners are being hired.

IDAHO DEMOCRATS IN
SPLIT CONVENTION
ANTI-DUBOIS FACTION CUTS
LOOSE FROM MEETING
Failure of Other Delegates to Support
Protest Against Seatings Ends
In Dual Session at
Wallace
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
WALLACE, Idaho, Aug. 6.-The
Democratic state convention was split
in twain today and both the Dubois
and anti-Duhois factions have organ
lied separate conventions.
The split in the convention came this
forenoon when the eonventio failed to
sustain a protest of the anti-Dubois
faction against the seating of the Du-
bois delegates from Bear Lake, Oneida
and Fremont counties.
The anti-Dubois faction left the hall.
The Dubois faction then formed a per-
manent organization by the election of
a. J.. Freehafer of Washington county
as permanent chairman. The selection
of Freehafer was displeasing to Dele
gate Galloway, who, after saying that
! h objected to a ''straw man" for
| chairman, left the hall. The eonven-
tion then adjourned until o'clock
The regular Democrats, as the
anti-Dubois faction designate them
| selves, went over to Masonic hail.
where Judge Stocklager was chosen
chairman. An announcement was made
that still more 'seceders" desired to
enter the convention.
After they had been admitted Judge
Stocklager amid great laughter sug-
gested that a committee be annointsd
|
explain that the Masonic hall was too
small for the regulars and ask them to
exchange halls.
| Convention Then AdJourns
Following this the committees were
announced and the convention ad-
journed until 1880 p. m. to permit the
committees to prepare their reports
The anti Dubois convention claims to
have 1873 votes and the Dubois lis.
Many delegates have gone home, leav-
ing proxies.
During the afternoon the anti-Duhois
people proceeded with their convention,
bringing it to a conclusion before they
adjourned.
They made one last effort at recon-
ciliation by trying to secure co-opera-
tion of the Dubois people so far as
nominating the same presidential cleo
tors were concerned.
The Dubois faction, however, would
listen to none of their overtures.
At S:15 tonight the Dubois conven-
ton reassembled with 154 delegates in
attendance and the platform formulate
| ed by the caucus was adopted. The
convention then took a recess until 10
| o'clock tonight.
