THOUSANDS OF men
Will RESUME WORK
Settlement Of Miners Strike in
Western Canada.

Winnipeg, Man., May 25.-The strike
Of coal miners which has affected
nearly all mines of Southern Alberta
and Eastern British Columbia for the
past three months has been settled by
the board of Cancellation appointed by
the government under the Lemieux
act, assisted by board members of til:
United Mine Workers of America sent
from Idaho, Washington and Oregon
The terms arrived at are those agreed
to at the first conference, to which
District President Sherman objected,
although approved by the votes of the
miners lodges, and against which he
ordered the strike. international
President Lewis was always of the
opinion that no strike should have
been called. The miners yielded on
the open shop contention and the mine
operators yielded as to discrimination
against union members. The terms
are binding on both parties for three
years. The end of the strike came
none too soon, as manufacturers at
the chief centers of Alberta and East
ern British Columbia are out of coal
From 1000 to 10000 miners will re.
turn to work Immediately.

Evidence That a Prominent Bull Is
Buying the December Option on a
Huge Scale.
Chicago, May 25.-Wheat prices adj

In July to 2% in September. May
wheat, the medium Of the Patten op.
erations, and the other active options,
July, September and December, all
established new high record prices;
which were well held at the close.
The best prices of the day were May,
$1.34A; July, $1.197s; September, ST..
IL, and December, $1O9A.
The relatively unimportant rise in
July was due to the fact that that op
tion was sold out by traders, who
transferred their deals to September
and December. There was evidence
that December was bought on huge
scale by a prominent bull.
The excitement of the day was
based on startling reports of prospec
tive crop shortages in Kansas and
Oklahoma. One authority declared
that the two states combined would
not produce more than $4,000, 900
bushels. A private wire from Kansas
City stated that flour mills were in.

In order to store more wheat, thus
preventing its being shipped out.
These and other items of similar
import aroused bullish enthusiasm

height of the Patten operations in

Should Be Published.
Washington, May 25.-The 10 called
sugar trust was the subject of an at
tack in the senate by Senator Owen of
Oklahoma, who sent to the secre-
tary's desk denunciation Of tho trust
published in local newspaper.
"This account" said Mr.. Owen,
points out enc Of the most evil and
insidious consequences Of the building
up in this country Of gigantic organi-
cations protected by the so called tar.
If. which has led to poisoning the
fountain Of information Of the people
Of the United States so that millions
Of dollars have been stolen from the
people Of the United States. This
fact is not mentioned by the leading
newspapers of the city Of New York,
but, on the contrary, full page adver.
ttsements of the American Sugar Re-
fning company appear in lieu of the
truth. which ought to be made known
to the people Of the United States"
Consequently he asked to have the
newspaper attack read in order that
It might appear in the record, which
was done.
On the conclusion Of the reading Of
the clipping. which was an account
of the alleged recent frauds perpe-
trated by the sugar trust, Mr.. Owen
declared that the words "above No.
16 duties standard in COLOR should be
struck from the tariff bill and asked
that the finance committee report to
the senate why these words should
not ba struck from the bill"
Mr.. A1drich suggested that when
the sugar schedule was reached "this
amendment will be in order"

chairman Of the committee on finance"
persisted Mr.. Owen.
"Not for the chairman" suggested
Mr.. Beveridge laughingly, "for the
