S|N,TCHNEN TO PROBE SIR. {
HAWLEY'S CORRESPONDENCE
CONSIDERED BY CONVENTION.
lnsureent Delegates Say Something
Will Drop With the Expense
Disclosure.

st. Paul, May 18.-The convention
Of switchmen now in session here has
begun the investigation of the strike
of 1909 and every piece of correspond
ence that passed between President
Hawley and the other grand officers
of the union will be considered in de-
tail. Hawley's management, policy
and expenditures during the strike will
be critically examined.
The insurgent delegates say that
something will drop when the expense
account of the strike is taken up.
They claim that certain moneys are
charged to benefits to the strikers, but
that no benefits were received, and
that the switchmen's official newspa-
per has never printed an account Of
the expenditures of the strike, as is
customary.
The Investigation narrows down
practically to a decision whether the
policy pursued by Mr.. Hawley during
the entire Northwest wage movement
was preferable to the advice Of Mr..
Heberling and his policy in the Chica-
go movement, where he procured g.
cent increase. The great mass of the
correspondence, piled high on the
tables of the convention hall, passed
between these two men.
Mr.. Hawley's policy was that OF
force, Mr.. Heberling's rather Of con-
ciliation. The former lost in the &C.
tual working out of his theory, the lat
ter won. This is the strong point
urged by the insurgents in their cam
paigning for Mr.. Heberling for presi'
dent to succeed Hawley.

ARM|ST|CE SIGNED,
D|AZ QUITS JUNE |
DE LA BARRA is TO BECOME
PRESIDENT OF MEXICO
AID INTERIM.
FIVE DAYS TRUCE Is ARRANGED
Madero Going to Capital to Participate
in Joint Regency-Arrange-
n1ents Will Probably
Lead to Peace.

Mexico City, May Is. - President
Diaz and Vice President Corral will
resign before June /. Minister of
Foreign Relations De Ia Barra will
become president ad interim. Fran
cisco I. Madero, the revolutionary lead
er, will be called to the city Of Mex
ico to act as De la Barra's chief ad-
wiser. and with the greatest guaran-
tee possible that every pledge made
by the government will be carried
out.
The cabinet will be reorganized
The minister Of war will be named by
De Ia Barra. The foreign office will
be in charge of a sub-secretary named
by De la Barra. Other cabinet men,
bers will be chosen by De la Barra
and Madero, acting Jointly. A new
election will be called within six
months. Political amnesty will be
recommended to the chamber Of dep
uties..
These are the conditions upon which
President Diaz will compromise. Vir.
tually they are admitted in high quar-.
ters to be complete surrender to the
revolutionists.
The resignation Of Diaz and the
Joint regency" of De Ia Barra and
Madero are said to constitute guar.
antee so complete that the original IN
surrecto demand for IA governors no
longer needs to be considered.
The governments conditions were
telegraphed to Judge Carbajal, with
instructions to submit them to Cen
eral Madero. After consulting both
signed the agreement.
The public received the announce
ment of Diaz' intention to resign with
profound satisfaction. Since the bat
tie OF Juarez they have realized that
the presidents remuneration of his
high Office alone could bring about
peace. Business throughout the re-
public has suffered severely, as the
people generally were eager for an
honorable peace.

LoRlMER PRoBERs REPORT.
Finds Election Was Effected Through
Bribery.

Springfield, May 18.-The report Of
the Helm senatorial committee ap-
pointed for the purpose Of Investigate
ing the circumstances surrounding the
election of William Lorimer to the
United States Senate, was returned to
the senate. The two most vital points
in the report are:
A criticism of Judge Petit for his
ruling in the habeas corpus case, in
volving Edward Tilden, Cummings
and Mitchell, and this expression:
"Your committee has reached the
conclusion that the election of Sena-
tor Lorimer before the last general
assembly would not have occurred had
it not been for bribery and corrup-
ton
The committee also touches on the
so-called Jackpot" episode, but de-
clares that so long as no person pub
licly connected with that matter is
any longer a member of the senate, no
recommendation is made. No attempt
is made in the committees report to
recommend the reopening of the Lori
mer investigation by the United States
senate or the unseating of members of
the Illinois legislature charged with
bribery and corruption.

Pulp and News Print Report.
Washington, May IS. - President
Taft sent to the senate the tariff
boards full report of it's investigation
of the pulp and news print paper in
dustry in the United States and Can
ada.
The report says that ton Of news
print paper is made in Canada for
S5.35 less than it is made in the Unit
ed States. The average Canadian cost
is given at $27 SO, and the average cost
in the United States at $32.88. The
duty upon a ton of news print paper
under the present tariff is 1878.
The principal increases are said to
be due to the fact a ton of pulp wood
costs nearly twice as much In the
United States as it does in Canada,
and that many of the American mills
have much older and much less eff
cient equipment than the Canadian
for a large increased manufacturing
cost.
In the cost of labor employed, the
differences in the two countries are
shown to be small.
One feature of the report shows that
the cost of manufacturing news print
paper in the United States varies
widely. The lowest cost recorded is
s24.50 ton; the highest is $43. From
this the tariff board strikes an aver
age of $32.SS.
At the Canadian mills the lowest
price recorded for producing ton Of
news print paper is $24.97, and the
highest is $30.1S. Average, $27.53.
Headquarters az Smelling.
According to plans now determined
upon by the department Of war, mill
tary operations at the Minnesota and
North Dakota posts, which heretofore
have been included in the Department
of Dakota, recently abandoned, will
be conducted under the Department
of the Lakes and the headquarters of
this department moved from Chicago
to Fort Smelling. The Department Of
the Lakes, as reorganized comprises
the states of Illinois, Dakota, Mime
sofa, Michigan, Wisconsin, and In
diana; Ohio and Kentucky having

ed soon after the opening of the mar
ket and continued until Arizona Com
mercial went below 6 and Boston q
Corbin dropped to below 4. After the
drastic liquidation for = time there
seemed to be a steadying power tie
veloped in the stocks and all adj
vaneed sharply.
1t is understood that the admins
tration of the Shannon Co. will re-
main in the hands of Charles Hayden

dent of all three companies and draw
salary aggregating about s20,OOo a
year. The total Indebtedness of Mr..
Amster to brokers and bankers reach
ed nearly $700,000.
The selling of the stocks on Wednes-
day was caused. it is claimed. by many
of the Boston banks throwing out
Shannon, Arizona Commercial and
Boston e. Corbin as collateral fol-
loans Some of the difficulty is said &c
have been due to the settling of old
scores over Amster by brokerage
houses.
