new LABOR UNION
MAY Be ORGANIZED
AN INTIMATIoN GIVEN BY PREsI.
DENT MoYER.
In Case the American Federation Does
Not Yield.

Denver, Aug. Am intimation of
the forming of a new labor union Of
national scope, comprising the West
ern Federation OF Miners, the United
Mine Workers of America, and the steel
workers of the country at present lit
tie organized, was given by President
Charles Fl. Mover just before the final
adjournment of the federation today.
The formation of such a union is pre-
sented as an alternative to affiliation
with the American Federation of Labor
in case the last named organization
declines to delegate to the Western
Federation the authority the miners
demand. In these demands the most
important is that all men employed
about metaliferous mines, whether ac-
-tually mining OF not, be placed under
the jurisdiction of the Western Feder
alton.
In a resolution passed this afternoon
the executive committee is empowered
to meet with the executive committee
of the Federation of Labor to complete
the details of the necessary affiliation
in case the demands of the miners are
met.

COLONEL ROOSEVELT
AMONG THE TO|LERS
GATHERING INFORMATION AT
FIRST HAND.
An lnpection of Mines and Silk Mills
in Vicinity of Scranton.

Scranton, Pa, Aug. 2.-Col ROOse-
among the workers in the heart of
the anthracite region. While the real
object Of his trip is unknown, it is
believed that he intends to write a
story descriptive of the fields. He
met and talked with the men who
dig coal as they came from the mines
black with CRIME. He talked with
them about their homes, their chill
dren, their manner Of living, and
learned from their own lips how they
look at life He climbed on top of
a coal breaker and spent half an
hour in the sitting coal dust. so that
he might see what the boys do.
He spent another half hour in a
silk mill. talking with the girl work
ers. He piodded two miles through
the dust up the hills to all manner
of places, and returned to Scranton
in the evening black with CRIME and
smiling with delight at his experience.
Many of the toilers had no idea of
his identity. Meeting Jake Kava-
naugh, a miner, walking down the
street, Col. Roosevelt stopped him,
saying: Il want To go home and talk
with you" kavanaugh agreed, and
they walked up the street to a small
house, with most of the paint worn
off. Kavanaugh led the colonel in
and sat him down on the porch. Then
he went inside and brought out Mrs
Kavanaugh and two little Kava-
naughs They talked about mining.
10
mented Mrs. Kavanaugh on her pro-
ficiency as a housekeeper
Soon his presence became known
and a crowd gathered. He tore him
self away and climbed a hill, where
he met Isaiah Jenkins, a miner, bare
footed, as he came from the mine.
Roosevelt stopped him. and they shook
hands. Jenkins showed him the
breakers, and they climbed three
flights to the top of the chute. Later
he went home with Jenkins and
found Mrs. Jenkins scrubbing the
kitchen floor. The colonel went over
to the sink and washed off some of
the dirt before shaking hands with
her.
The party then left the village and
motored to Peckville, four miles away.
There he talked with the girls in the
silk mill. After he had removed the
dust at a hotel he met John Mitchell,
former president of the mine work
ers. They talked about labor con-
ditions. Then he motored to Wilkes
barre, eighteen miles away. Early in
the morning he will start with Mitch
ell for an all-day tour of the small
towns around Wiikesbarre.

REPUBLICAN FACTIONS
Are Hopelessly and Bitterly
Divided On Eve of Con-
vention Which Is Destin-
ed to End In Crushing of
Standpatters

Des Moines, Iowa, Aug. 2-Politics
was in active eruption today prelimi-
nary to the republican state conven-
ton tomorrow. Tonight a. dark red
line may be seen dividing the stand
patters and progressives, and certain
democrats, including Clint Price. the
democratic candidate for congress i'm
the Seventh Des Moines) district.
and others We're observed gloating
over the red line.
All you have got to do is to get
out the stand-p pat vote, Clint. and
your address will be Washington.
ID. c." observed a friend To- the demo-
cratic candidate.
"All Eve got to do is to get out
the democrats" retorted Price The
stand -pstters will be at the polls il
they have To walk backwards. and
voting. if not for Price, against the
progressive candidate"
The foregoing is quoted not as a
prediction, but as a speciment COM
ment from persons who have closely
observed today's developments. on
one side of the line mentioned the
stand-patters are gathered several
hundred strong, decided To insist upon
a plank endorsing President Taft and
the Official acts of his administration
and of the recent congress, and also
to endorse the Iowa insurgent dele
cation only so far as it has been
regular" In other words, when it
supported the administration on the
tariff and railroad legislation
On the other side, the progressive
leaders conferred to the general effect
that President Taft should be men
TONED only to the extent that he has
endeavored to carry out the pledges
of the national republican platform.
The and-patters have decided to
insist on the endorsement of Governor
Carroll. The Insurgents threw out a
sop for harmony by agreeing to an
endorsement of the state administra-
tion, without mentioning the gov
ernors name.
Both meetings were enthusiastic
At the stand-pat meeting ex-Con-
gressman Lacey sounded the keynote.
Let's fight" he said, "and if the
steam roller passes over US, let's go
down to defeat carrying the flag of
majority who vote us down will bear
the odium of having refused a spe-
cific endorsement of a great repub-
lican president. who has carried out
every promise Of the republican
party"
Among those at the insurgent meet
ing were Senator Cummins. former
Judge Jesse A. Miller. Attorney Gen
eral Byers, Warren Garst, the defeat
ed progressive candidate for governor,
and a host of others.
Senator Doliver Immediately upon
his arrival in the city was slated for
permanent chairman. to take up the
gavel when 1t is laid down by Sena-
tor Cummins, the temporary chair
man. The liquor question will re-
ceive the careful consideration of the
resolution committee, if not. of the
convention itself

HARMONY ABANDONED.

Des Moines, Iowa, Aug 2.--It was
near midnight when the leaders of
the stand-patters, after a day OF
ceaseless conferences. drafted resolu-
tions calculated to shatter the least
remote shadow of harmony at to-
morrow's convention. The text of
the plank they agreed to fight for to
the last is substantially as follows:
l. We endorse President w. III.
Taft and his administration of the af-
fairs of the nation. We endorse him
as the leader of the republican party
of the nation.
2. We endorse the economical and
statesmanlike administration of Gov
ernor b. F. Carroll. the leader of the
republican party of the state of
Iowa
3. We endorse the action of Presi-
dent Taft i'm placing his signature
and approval upon the Payne-Aldrich
tariff bill, and to this law we give
our full and unqualified endorsement.
4. In so far as they have aided
President Taft in carrying out his
policies and the program of the ad-
ministration, we endorse the Iowa
delegation at Washington.

WHAT Mr.. TAFT THINKS
Has Not Been Stated But
1t Is Positively Asserted
That Secretary's Resigna
tion Will Never Be Asked
For

Beverly, Aug 2.-There was increas-
ing evidence here today that the re-
cent bOmbardment of the president
with letters from republican leaders
in all parts of the country protesting
that Secretary Ballinger is providing
embarrassment in laying plans for the
coming congressional campaign, are
beginning to have effect, if not upon
the president himself. at least upon the
advisors closest to him.
No attempt was made today to deny
the reports that Secretary Crane at the
very outset of his political pilgrimage
through the west would probably sug-
gest to Mr.. Ballinger at Minneapolis
yesterday that his duty to his party
might require that he sacrifice his
place i'm the cabinet.
All that Secretary Norton would say
after having considered the matter
carefully all day was that it would be
necessary to see Mr.. Crane. The
statement was reiterated that the
president would not so much as lift
a finger if by so doing he could Sc
cure the retirement of Mr. Ballinger
as the head of the interior department
Party leaders who have talked with
the president, it is said, while agree
ing that nothing has been proved
against Mr.. Ballinger. they have put
the matter purely on party basis,
and said that the campaign would be
easier with Mr.. Ballinger eliminated as
an issue The leaders have declared
that the fight is going to be a hard one
at best, and while they feel sorry for
Mr. Ballinger. they regard his pres
ence in the cabinet as a handicap.
Mr. Taft was frankly told few days
ago that the movement behind Gar
field in Ohio was a protest against Mr..
Ballinger The Ohio leaders recognized
its strength and made concessions in
the platform.
There was a disposition at Beverly
today to treat the meeting OF Messrs-
Crane and Ballinger at Minneapolis as
accidental 1t was clearly intimated
that any move against Mr.. Ballinger
had its inception among active party
leaders and not with Mr.. Taft.
The president. it, can be stated posi-
lively, will never ask Mr.. Ballinger to
resign. If the secretary should feel
called upon to resign. there is little
doubt that his resignation would be ac
cepted

RESTS WITH MISS LENEVE
To Furnish Evidence for Conviction
of Crippen.

Quebec. Aug Ethel Claire Le-
neve. who gave up her home and
friends for the love of DR. Hawley
Crippen and now finds herself shar-
ing with him the odium of a murder
charge, has become the central fig
ure in that notorious London trag-
edy in which a wife is believed to
have been murdered.
Crippen, taciturn, and seeming to
considerable extent To have recoV-
cred his composnre, has volunteered
no information which might help the
police To solve the mystery of the
disappearance of his wife, Belle Ell
more, and the police expect no help
frpm that source.
"CriPpen is no fool" said Inspector
Dew of Scotland Yard this morning.
and no one questions this opinion.
Accordingly, the police are resting
their hopes on Miss Leneve If she
does not possess the key to the mys-
terry the police think she can at least
aid them materially
They cannot use any third de-
gree methods under the English
law. But more subtle influences are
already at work
The pretty girl prisoner is being
treated with the greatest considera-
ton. She has not been placed in a
cell and has been allowed occasional
outdoor exercise. The attitude of the
police toward her is sympathetic
Inspector Dew has repeatedly de-
clared that he believed the girl in
nocent of any knowledge of wrong
doing At the same time Miss Le-
nevme is being bombarded with ca
Diagrams from the members of her
family in London, urging her to tell
all she knows.
The purpose of all this is obvious,
when it is considered that Scotland
Yard has been unable to identity
the dismembered body found in the
cellar of Crippen's home.

Victory Over One Stand
patter Congressman. 9th
er Districts in Doubt

Topeka, Kas., Aug. Great interest
is manifested throughout the country
in the result of the primary, the first
real test of strength between insurgent
congressman and standpatters. The
regulars were attacked all along the
line by Governor Stubbs. Senator Bris-
tow, Senator Cummlns and Congress-
man Murdock. The fighting has been
practically all on the republican side

schedules of that law and Speaker
Cannon.

to decided insurgent gains in Kansas.
The nomination of Governor w. r.
Stubbs. who linked his fortunes with
those of the insurgent candidates for
congress, is practically assured Run
ming close to him is r. J. Hopkins, the
insurgent candidate for lieutenant gov
ernor.
The outcome in the First district is
still in doubt, with the friends of d.
r. Anthony. stand -patter. and t. A

Meager reports from the Second dis
trict indicate that c. A. Mitchell, insur-
gent. is ahead.
In the Third district, p p Campbell.
the present incumbent, is running
ahead of Arthur Cranston, insurgent.
and indications favor his renomina-
ton
In the Fourth district. the insur-
gents scored decided victory, nomin-
ating Fred Jackson and defeating j. NJ

there are claims that R r Rees, insur-
gent. has defeated w A Calderhead,

The vessels are the armored cruis-

ers Columbia and Minneapolis, built
as commerce destroyers. These three
cost more than $S,500.000, exclusive
of their armament. -.
The Columbia and the Minneapo-
