Youth Will be Pitted Against AGE in
the Mill Scheduled for Tonight in
kaneas city-Difficulty is Expert
enced in Agreeing Upon Referee for
Contest.

Kansas City, Nov. S.-The interest
of the fight followers in this part OF
the country is centered on the ten
round contest TO be held tonight with
Packey Mcfarland and Cyclone
Johnny Thompson as principals. For
almost two years, the meeting between
these two has been talked of, but al
ways without definite results. Some
difficulty has been2 experienced in
agreeing on a referee but it is thought
that Joe Coffey will be the third man
in the rims.
The men will weigh in at 1856 pounds,
six hours before the battle. Though
Thompson is only 33 years old. the
fight is largely a battle between youth
and age. Mcfarland is 21 aud has
steadily fought his way well up to the
head # the lightweight division. To-
nights bout will show whether the oil
der man is past his prime or the
younger boxer is eligible for the cham
pionship class. 1t is expected that the
winner will meet Battling Nelson.

standing the shortness Of funds in the

other fund that is exhausted or nearly
so.

The automobile, which was supposed
to have contained several persons,
plunged into the Chicago river Sunday
night at Jackson boulevard.
Witnesses of the accident reported
to the police that the bridge had been
oponed for a steamer to pass through,
and that the automobile. which ap-
preached the bridge rapidly, struck
the abuttment, turned over and fell
into the river. moment later they
saw a man and a woman struggling in
the water. the woman clinging to the
man and screaming for help. The
bridge tender threw out life preservers
as both victims sank.

scene soon after but no trace of the
victims could be found. one OF the
witnesses to the accident reported that
thea utomobile contained four persons.

LABOR FEDERATION OPENS
ANNUAL CONVENTION TO-DAY
President Samuel compers is a Cam
ddate for reelection Despite PEN
atty in Boycott Cases Still Pending
Big Fight is Anticipated Before
Federation Adjourns.

Toronto. ont, Noy. S.-Upwards of
500 delegates were in their seats this
morning when President Samuel Com
pers called to order the twenty ninth
annual convention OF the American
Federation Of Labor. Occupying places
OF honor on the platform with the Of
ficers. and executive council were ].
r. clynes and a. II, GIN. members Of
the British parliament, who were
present as 'fraternai delegates from
the British Trades Union congress.
Most routine matters were consider
ed at the opening session. The pres
entation of the credentials was. the
first matter on tie programme and
occupied considerable time. This was
followed by the address Of President
Gompers and the annual reports of the
other officers of the federation.
one of the interesting fights expect
ed to come to a head at the conven-
tion is the threatened split in the
ranks over the action of the federation
in forfeiting the charter Of the Cleve-
land central labor union as the result
of the quarrel with the electrical
workers union in that city. The ques-
tion at issue is the right of the feder-
alton to interfere with the matters re-
iating to central bodies of the various
cities Of the United States.
President Gompers is out for re-
election, and it is generally believed
that he will be successful The ma
jority Of the other officers are also
candidates for reelection. and it seems
likely that no changes will result.

IMPROVE STATE RAILROADS.
State Railway Commission Finds Con
ditions Satisfactory.

Lansing, Mich, Nov. S.-Many. i'm
provements have been made in the
roadbeds rolling stock and stations of
Michigan railways in the past year,
and the full equipment OF cars of all
the lines in service as well as many
new cars which have been purchased
during the year This is the condition
OF the roads as found by the state
railway commission, which is just
completing its annual inspection of the
railways of the state. Roads which a
year ago had their sidetracks packed
with empty cars are now using every
available bit of rolling stock and ad-
ding to the equipment every day.
I'VE found most of the roads in
good condition and planning extensions
and improvements for next year" said
the commissioner this morning. Con
siderable new track has been laid.
many new ties placed and more ties
are on the rights of way for i'm
provements next year. There has
been much attention paid during the
year to the roadbeds of many of the
lines, and there are now many fine
stretches of track. There are, how
ever, many miserable stations along
some lines, and we are trying to in
duce the railway officials to tear
down old buildings and replace them
with modern buildings. We have in
spected each station, and where we
find clean, well kept plan. we are
glad to compliment the mt and
road for the attention paid t. his fea-
ture of railroading."
