THE NINTH DISTRICT.

The result Of the congressional cleo
ton in the Ninth district appears to be
still in doubt, with both Representative
Slemp Gep.) and friends OF Henry G.
Stuart (dem.) claiming victory. 1t is
said alleged irregularities in Smyth and
Pulaski counties may result in throw
ing out number Of precincts. II this
is done it is figured by Stuart's friends
that Stuart will have small majority.
Word from Marion is to the effect that a
grand jury had been named to investi-
gate the election in Smyth county. Ac-
cording to a dispatch Stuart's chances
for victory are Frightening, and judg-
ing from reports received there seems
to be little doubt that he will win by q
small majority in the official count,
which will be held next week. Eighty
three ballots in Smyth county will prob
ably be thrown out. Recent returns
give SO additional votes in Wise and %
in Russell in favor OF Stuart. Mr..
Stuart announced last night that he
wished to withdraw his statement given
out Wednesday nightconceding slemp's
election, and further said that he will
contest. In Smyth county, it is said,
the SO ballots thrown out were those
voted by men whose names were on
the delinquent tax list and who had not
paid their poll taxes.

BUREAU OF MINES
 AT LAST HAS HEAD
DR. HOLMES OF THE GEOLOGICAL
 SURVEY.
His Appointment Had Been Held Up
 by MT. BaIinger.

Beverly, Mass, Sept. 2-President Taft tonight announced the appoint ment of Joseph Austin Holmes of the geological survey as director of the new bureau of mines at Washington. Holmes had been selected for the place some time ago but the appoint ment was held up, it is understood. on the ground that Secretary Ballinger. under whose department the new bureau is placed, was opposed to him. Holmes is an intimate personal friend of Pinchot, Garfield and F. H. Newell, director of the reclamation service. all three of whom sharply criticised Bal finger on the witness stand at the Bal finger Pinchot inquiry.
 It is reported here that Ballinger felt that Dr. Holmes might have had a hand in what he termed the "cOnspira- cy'' against him. Friends of Holmes, while admitting the latter's close as sociation and friendship with Pinchot, Garfield and Newell, declare he never the less had taken no active part in the campaign against BallingcT. The indorsement of Holmes for the place was almost unanimous. It came from mine operators and miners organiza- tions alike.
 purpose of the new bureau is to investigate and report upon safety ap- pliance to prevent the awful waste of life annually. The bureau will also make investigation looking to an inn provement of methods in mining.
 President Taft is contemplating that he probably will issue soon after his return to Washington an executive or der putting all assistant postmasters and permanent clerks at money order postoffices under the civil service. President Taft has a long list of mat ters to take up with his cabinet advis- ors. He will reach Washington Sep tember 21 for a ten days session and the cabinet will practically be in con tinuous session September 26, 2 and 2S.

THERE'S STILL ROOM
 FOR IMPROVEMENT
In the Way of Celebrating Fourth of
 July.

Chicago, Sept. 2.-Although the list of deaths and accidents due to the celebration of the Fourth of July IS appalling, the sane" observance of the day this year shows a notable improve ment, according to statistics compiled by the Journal of the American Medl- cal Association.
 The decrease in accidents is most marked in this sections where restrict i've legislation has been put into ef- feet, says the Journal. The summary shows: 2,923 persons injured July 4 this year, of whom 131 died; S7 deaths due to tetanus; 19 killed outright, while 26, mostly little girls. were burned to death from fireworks.
 Startling as the showing is, it is the best since 1903, when the Journal be- gan keeping it's record. In 1903, 4.44s pesons were injured, of whom 4G6 lost their lives, 4O6 from tetanus.
 The grand total for eight years shows that 37,526 persons were injured in the Independence day celebrations and of these 1,663 died.

CLOAkMhKERS' STRIKE
 BROUGHT ID AN END
IT WAS PEAcEAsLE BUT A COST
 " ONE.
The Settlement One of the Most Inn
 portart Readjustments.

New York, Sept 2.-The cloak mak- CTS strike. one of the greatest mdustri- al disturbances in the history of Amer ican labor was settled tonight and 10000 garment makers. idle for nine months, will return tO work. Ten thou sand and those dependent upon them, 50.000 in all, were on the point of evic- ton and hundreds had already been forced into the street. The industrial loss 10 employers and employees has run high into the millions. In the loss of wages alone the total is estimated at more than ten million dollars. while the loss to manufacturers. jobbers and retailers the country over is computed at ten times that amount.
 In spite of the stupendous readjust- ment involved. the strike has been in the main notable for it's peaceableness. There were numerous cases of petty disorder and the petition of the manu- facturers brought forth from Justice Golf of the state supreme court an in junction in which he ruled that any strike to demand a closed shop was in restraint of trade. Julius H. Cohen, counsel for the manufacturers assOcia- tion describes the settlement reached;
 No principle has been surrendered by the manufacturers, yet the union may truly claim to have won a great victory for their people. The manu- lecturers believe in the union and in the principle that all who desire it's benefits should share in it's burdens.
 "One essential of the victory, and important not only to the strikers but to the nation at large. is the abolition of all contract work at home. Here after garments made in New York will be manufactured under sanitary con- ditions There will be no mo"e sweat shops. The closed shop rock has now been avoided by the adoption of a preferential union shop an idea for which Richard D. Brandeis of Boston formerly counsel for Glavis in the Bal finger -Pinchot case. is given full credit"
 Cohen concluded his statement with the following declaration. remarkable for one in his position: Trade unions are not only necessary, but must be guided and strengthened. l have not been fighting the unions. l have been fighting for what believed were the rights guaranteed by the laws of the country for my clients"
 The settlement of the strike averts a crisis on the crowded west side With thousands out of work and unable to pav rent the courts were literally swamped with eviction proceedings.

CRITICISM OF ROOSEVELT
And His Speeches In the West. He Says Thought full Men Are Impressed With Frightful Danger of His Return to Power

New York, Sept. 2-WiHiam Barnes, Jr., republican state committeeman and leader. of Albany issued a statement tonight in which he declared "hysteria has run riot throughout this country, |" and that the question to be decided at the coming republican state conven- ton at Saratoga is whether the re- publican party will fight the disease or succumb in the interest of politi- clans seeking office or temporary ac- claim
 The character of the recent ad- west. Barnes said, has startled all thoughtful men, and impressed them with the frightful danger which lies in his political ascendency."
 When he talked with Colonel Roose- welt after the meeting that selected Vice President sherman as temporary chairman of the convention over Col onel Roosevelt and learned his attitude toward public matters MT. Barnes says he told the former president that he never could have voted for him.
 MT. Barnes statement, in part. says: "Hysteria has run riot throughout this country, expressing itself in enc form or another. such as direct nominations and initiative and referendum and in itiative and recall"
 The recent attack upon the supreme court of the United States by a keen witted and aspiring citizen could not have been made without a purpose well It was an appeal to pas sion. If this appeal against judicial decisions is popular and is not re- buked there is no reason whatsoever, if the direct primary law should be enacted in this state, that candidates for judicial offices. compelled to run the gauntlet of the district or state wide primary. would not, in order to appeal to the temporary sentiments of the moment. declare in advance their attitude upon matters which would come before them for judicial review"
