OPERATORS REFUSE
DEMAND OF MINERS
COMMITTEE FAILS TO AGREE
ON POWDER QUESTION
Increase in Pay Asked by Men Using
permissible Explosives" Is De-
MED, Being Declared in Vio-
lation of Agreement

PITTSBURG, Feb. 15.-Pittsburg
coal operators through a committee
today refused demands of the miners
in the long drawn out permissible
powder question on the grounds that
they were unfair and in violation OF
the agreement made at Toledo in April,
1905
The committee of the national board
of the United Mine Workers submit
ted the demands of February 10. These
asked that all companies where the
permissible explosives" were used
comply with terms made by the Char
leroi Coal company with it's men, by
paying on a run -of-mine basis, or pro-
viding an increase of 51a per cent to
men working in wide rooms and per
cent in narrow works; that the miners
be supplied with the new explosives
at the same relative cost as black
powder and that when shot-firers are
employed the company shall pay them.
The operators say the Charleroi
company does not come into competl-
ton with other operators and that the
test was made independently by that
company.
1t is further asserted that with the
run-of- mine basis, as shown by expert
ments in 1898, the miner becomes care
less and shoots his coal so hard that
it goes to pieces.
The reply asserts a Willingness on
the part of the operators to make
such tests as will determine the COM
parative effects of the various eXplo-
sives, but the commission of miners
and operators have failed to agree on
a basis.

IRISH LIBERALS
IN CONFERENCE
REDMOND, O'CONN0R AND Dill
LON VISIT CHANCELLOR
Kings Speech to Parliament to Be
Shortest on Record-Suffrag-
cites Promise Asquith
to Behave
ASSOCIATED Pressl

LONDON, Feb. 15.-John e. Red
mond, accompanied by John Dillon
and Il. p. OConnor visited Chancellor
Lloyd George after the cabinet council
today and discussed the attitude of the
Nationalists toward the budget.
1t is understood Mr.. Redmond gave
the chancellor assurances that the
general body of Irishmen would make
no deliberate attempt to embarrass
the government, whatever might be the
minister's decision as to the order of
dealing with the budget and the veto
questions
This probably means that, even if
Premier Asquith finds himself unable
to satisfy Mr.. Redmond completely re-
garding the lords veto, the National
lists will remain neutral and abstain
from voting on the budget, which
would then be carried by small ma
jority.
1t is believed, however, the premier
will satisfy the Irish leader on this
point, and that promise will be
made to give some concessions to Ire
land in the next budget which will JUS
tify the Nationalists in supporting the
government.
1t is reported that the kings speech
to parliament will be one of the short
est on record, and that it will deal with
little except the veto question.
Suffragettes have sent an open let
ter to Premier Asquith, promising 70
abstain from militant tactics, until the
government has had a fair opportunity
of stating it's intentions, but demand
ing an explicit declaration that the
government will undertake woman's
suffrage legislation.

Henshaw," he said. "If they can give
us a good bid, that's all we want"
Pressed as to why the Spaulding
company has not been given a chance,
Mr.. Bixby said: "In my opinion L do
not believe that company could fur
nish the rock in the time we require" +"
The chairman stated it would cost
the county less to ship crushed stone
to Lemon and Newmark-the points or
delivery specifed-from Riverside than
it would from the Spauldtng quarries
at Acton and Spadra. He figured 1t
as a matter of mileage at the county s
special rate with the rallroads-A cent
a ton a mile.
The facts are, the stone from River
side is shipped through Spadra, which
is 29 miles nearer the point of delivery
than Riverside. Spadra is but 20 miles
from Newmark, while Riverside is 49
miles.
The amount of rock called for by the
new specifications is 7C,200 tons. Lime
stone will not stand 20 per cent test,
so the commission inserted a new rat
tier test clause, allowing 80 per cent
waste.
Engineers point out THAI anything
which may be saved in the contract
price of limestone as against trap
rock will be more than Offset by
freight rates and the reduced rattler
test, and that the county will have
inferior roads.

.SOLONS BRIBED
BY CORPORATION
[Assoclated Press1

ALBANY, N. Y, Feb. 15.-That the
American Bridge company raised a cor
ruption fund in 1902, 1903 and 1905 was
testified to today in the legislative brib-
cry investigation when State Senator
Benn Conger was cross-examined.
Plans were laid for wider investiga-
tion to follow the present inquiry into
charges of Senator Conger that Senator
lothian p. Aids took a $1,000 bribe from
an agent Of the American Bridge COM
pany
Aids accuser was taken in hand by
Senator Newcomb and forced to con-
fess that the American Bridge company
had raised a corruption fund in 1902,
1903 and 1905. Conger admitted the
bridge company in 1903 turned the leg
islative bribery fund over to the Groton
Bridge company, In which the witness
and his brother Frank We're interested.
A grim smile flashed across his har-
assed face as he volunteered this infor-
nation relative to the purpose of the
fund:
There was a contribution to the
state chairman OF the Republican or
ganization in 1902"
The days developments made clear
that the administration had concluded
that the public demand for a sweeping
investigation is too insistent to be ig-
nored.
This morning Senator Wainwright
introduced q resolution providing for
an investigation practically without
limit as to time or place, within the
state, but ii was referred to the finance
committee and probably will not come
out in as radical form as when intro
duced.

PACKERS WOULD
DISPROvE TRUST
INQUIRY INTO BEEF COMBINE
MAKES PROGRESS
District Attorney Declares Truth Can
Only Be Ascertained by Sum-
moning Heads of Big
Monopoly
Associated Pressl

CHICAGO, Feb. 15.-This was day
of enlightenment for members of the
federal grand jury, who are hearing
evidence in the government investiga-
tion to ascertain whether the meat
packing industry is being conducted
in violation of the Sherman antitrust
laws.
Counsel for the packers express
themselves as being wholly in the dark
as to what the government has learned,
and what 1t hopes to establish.
On the other hand, District Attorney
Edwin w. Sims, who is conducting the
governments case, believed two points
had been established. These We're:
First. that if the government hopes
10 establish a case it must pay less at
tention to minor employees and call in
the heads of the packing world to get
at the facts
Second, that the packing interests
are determined to drive home before
the Jurors that no trust exists, that
it would be impossible for any ring to
control prices, and that the law of
supply and demand alone regulates the
price of meat
The most important witnesses today
were James S. Agar, president of the
Western Packing and Provision com
pany; L. D. Patterson. vice president
of the National Packing company, and
r e. White, who is known as the
right-hand man of Arthur Meeker,
general manager for Armour S5 Co.
Both Mr. White and Mr.. Agar stood
up before the Jurors and, in reply to a
rapid fire of questions, quoted figures
and purported facts to show that COM
petition exists.

NAVAL TUG NINA
SAID TO Be SAFE
CAPTAIN OF STEAMER SIGHTS
BOAT OFF LONG ISLAND
U. s. Vessel Missing More Than Week
Reported Seen Just When Gov.
ernment Had Abandoned
Hope of Finding 1t

NEWPORT NEWS, Va, Feb. b.
Bound up coast for Boston with stay
sail rugged on the forward derrick
post, the little naval tug Nina, which
has been missing since February g.,
was sighted at o'clock last Sunday
afternoon off Montauk point, l.. H.
by the whaleback steamer BayVleW,
which arrived today from Sears Point,
Maine.
Captain Cummins of the BayvieW
says the Nina apparently was all
right, that she flew no distress signals,
and that, as he did not think of anxiety
as to her safety, he merely saluted and
continued on his voyage.
In the opinion of Captain Cummins,
the Nina put into the Delaware break
water for shelter the night of Sunday,
February 6, and remained there until
fair weather set in last Saturday Such
acts are not unusual for vessels to lie
in front of the breakwater without re-
porting.
At the rate of speed she was making
when he passed her, Captain Cummins
figures the Nina should reach Boston
tonight or early tomorrow.
Hope of finding any trace OF the
naval tug Nina and her crew OF thirty
two men had been practically aban-
donea by naval officials at Washing
TON LIllS dlIeIHOOiis
To those directing the investigation,
lit seemed evident, early today, that
the Nina could scarcely have proceed
ed on its perilous voyage any farther
north than Fenwick island, off the
coast of Delaware, and instructions
were at once flashed to all vessels in
the zone north of that point to dis
continue their patrols and to report to
their stations.
This reduced the searching squad
ron to the battleship Louisiana, and
the scout cruiser Salem, which We're
ordered to survey water from FenWick
island south to the Virginia capes.
In addition to the apparent futility
of the search in the north, a storm
was reported brewing at sea, and max
ing its way to the coast, and this con-
firmed the naval departments inten-
ton of recalling the Taft to their sta-
tions to prevent the possibility OF any
further disaster.
The Louisiana. and the Salem, in the
zone where it is thought possible the
Nina fioundered, reported today that
the surface of the ocean so far oiters
no evidence of the missing tug FIFTY
eight hundred square miles have been
surveyed by the Louisiana.

PLAN WELCOME
FOR ROOSEVELT
FRENCH NATION WILL HONOR
FORMER PRESIDENT
PARTY is DUE TO ARRIVE AT
PARIS APRIL IA
Distinguished Nlmrod Is Anxious to
Avoid Appearance of ostenta-
tion-SpectacuIa Features
to Be Omitted
Associated Press!


PARIS, Feb. 15.-M. Lizard, vice rec
| tor of the University of Paris, mas
been officially advised that Theodore
Roosevelt will reach Paris about Aprll
IA, and that the length of his stay
| probably will not exceed three or four
| days.
The French government is anxious
to receive the former president of the
United States with the highest honors.
French society is prepared to lionlze
him, literary and scientific bodies de-
sire to entertain him, and the American
colony would like to give a grand BAN
quet in his honor.
But Mr.. Roosevelt has discreetly al
lowed it to be understood that he de-
sires to avoid any appearance of os-
tentation, and that he will preserve, so
far as possible, merely the role of a
man of learning, in which capacity he
accepted the invitation to lecture at the
Sorbonne.
This invitation was extended through
Ambassador Jusserand when Mr.
Roosevelt still occupied the White
House.
MIR. Roosevelts visit to Paris, there
fore, will be devoid of spectacular feat
ures that characterized former Presl-
dent Grants visit at the time OF his
tour around the world.
Mr.. Roosevelt's wishes will be car
ried out in the main, but the govern
ment declined to forego the honor of
entertaining him, and the former pres.
ident has accepted the invitation of
President Fallieries to be his guest at
the Elysee palace.
A large reception will be held in the
grand salon of the university, at which
the lecturer will meet brilliant as
semblage of French savants, including
the forty immortals."
On April is Mr.. Roosevelt will be re-
ceived in solemn audience by the In
stitute, of which he is a member by
virtue of his recent election as an asso-
ciate of the Academy of Political ana
Moral Sciences.

TILLMAN'S SON
LOSES CHILDREN
SOUTHERN COURT DECIDES IN
MOTHERS FAVOR
Scion of United States Senator Loses
Suit Involving Right of Solon
and Wife to Raise Grand
children
Associated Press !


COLUMBIA, S. c., Feb 15.-Grant-
ing the mothers plea for the custody
of her two little children, the supreme
court of South Carolina today handed
down a decision in favor of Mrs. B.
R. Tillman, jr., who sought to re-
cover her two little girls, Douschka
Pickens Tillman and Sarah Stark Till
man, from the possession of Senator
and Mrs. B. r. Tillman.
The decision is based on the ground
that the deed of transfer by B. r. Till
man, jr., was invalid, as applied to
the mother, the act under which 1t
was made being in violation of the
state and federal constitutions.
The court therefore, granted the
application for habeas corpus.
Z AS soon as the decision was an
Tillman took steps toward getting the
children.
If the statute is to be construed as
giving the father arbitrary power to
deed away the custody of his chill
dren, the court held, the law is an in
fringement of the rights and priv
ileges assured IN the state constitu-
tion, and similarly in the fourteenth
amendment of the constitution of the
United States. The opinion says:
1T seems perfectly clear that the
general assembly cannot empower the
father, at his own will, to deprive the
mother and the children of those legal
rights so long established as elements
of personal liberty"
The court further concludes that the
father, B. r. Tillman, jr., can have nc
claim to the custody of the children
and therefore the suit narrows dowr
to controversy between Mrs. B. r
Tillman, jr., and Senator and Mrs. B
r. Tillman.
Without passing on the conflict OF
testimony in the affidavits covering tht
marital differences OF the couple, the
court concludes that the children
should be in the custody of theiI
mother who 1t is held is better fitted
than the grandparents to care fol
them
