MINING CONGRESS
 IS POSTPONED
of Taft and Others to At- tend Causes Delay in the Pro-
 gramme's Fulfillment

The American Mining congress, to have been held in Chicago on Sep tember 26. 27,, 2S and 20, has been postponed until october 24-29, accord ing to official notice received by State Mine Inspector Nesbitt yesterday. The postponement Is due to the inability of President Taft, Secretary of the h. terior Fisher and Director Holmes or the bureau of mines to be present at the time originally fixed. The delay will also enable a larger delegation of miners from Alaska to attend
 The general subjects to be discussed at the congress were outlined in the communication and include: CD The prevention of mining accidents;" CD "Workmen's compensation for the vic- tims of mining accidents;' t3) The prevention of waste of the natural re- sources and conservation of the energy which now contribute to coal produc- tion." (4 "The general problems of the bituminous coal mining industry as intensified by the demands for bet ter protection to miners and the con- servation of fuel resources" CD The Alaskan question:" 60 The public lands question of the west as they af- feet the mining industry" M

FURTHER CUTS IN C|TY'SEXPENSES
This Important Matter Will Probably Be Taken Up
 By Commission Today

The city commissioners did not have tlieir scheduled meeting yesterday, but the regular meeting will be held this morning, and 1t is believed some fur ther retrenchments will be made in the city expenses. The commissioners in trying to make good their pledges to op- crate the city within the income are in ciined to believe that further cuts may be made in the management of affairs without impairing efficiency.
 No plans of detailed kind have been outlined yet, but it is understood all three of the commissioners have evinced desire and willingness to trim some more, which will be on the programme for today.
 The sanitary department, the street department and the fire department, the latter of which has in the past gone un- touched by the trimming scythe, will be up before the commissioners according te the latest programme. In addition, it i.. said that the engineering department will be further gone over.
 The police department is now in such shallow straits as to preclude any possi- bility of much trimming in that depart Icent.t However, man or two may be laid off here and there, and decrease that department somewhat.
