THE FIGHT FOR
RECOGNITION.
Officials of Hartman Lines and
Shipments Union in
Conference.

Chicago, Sept. lon the result OF
the conference scheduled for today IN
San Francisco between Julius Krutt-
schnitt, vice president of the Harri-
man lines and the international presi-
dents OF five Of the shopmen's unions,
probably will depend the attitude OF the
system declarations all over the country
in their fight for recognition. Nego-
tiations between the Illinois Central
and the system federation OF that road
have been broken off, following the
refusal OF President Markham to deal
with the Federation and the officers
of the federation admitted today
they we're awaiting the action of the In
ternationaI presidents before making
their next move.
If the international presidents in
conference with Kruttschnitt are re-
fused recognition, as probably they will
be, their subsequent action will prob
ably establish a precedent to be fol-
lowed by all the system declarations
if they are denied recognition by the
management of other roads. The situa-
ton admittedly is more critical
than at any time since the
system declarations first began to
show their hands. There 'is little
doubt that Kruttschnitt will decline to
recognize the system federation. The
International presidents have it in their
power Immediately to call strike. Ii
they do, the action will probably be
followed at once by the system fedora
ton OF Illinois Central and by other
roads that have established declarations.
In declining the demand for recog-
milton of the system Federation Presi-
dent Markham, OF the Illinois Central,
declared that the road would not: dis
cuss new agreements while old ones
we're in force and that the Union men
had violated their contracts by making
thesdemand without 80 dayo' notice.
San Francisco, Sept. 1.-The threat
ened strike of the shopmen on the Har-
rinan railroads in the west approached
crisis today wnen Vice President and
General Manager Julius KruttschniIt
OF the Hartman system went into con-
ference with the international presi-
dents of the FIVE crafts involved in the
trouble.
THAT Kruttschpitt's decision in the
matter would be final, was made clear
by telegram received today by Presi.
dent Kline OF the Blacksmith's Union
from Judge Lovett head of the Harri-
man system declaring that the entire
matter was in Kruttschnitt's hands.
Kline, who is spokesman for the un-
ion leaders announced before today's
conference began that international
presidents had decided that the de.
mands OF the shop employees for recog'
milton of the system federation must be
insisted upon, These demands will not
be compromised, said Kline, although
the words System Federation" might
not be recognized.

PRODUCES MORE LETTERS.
Congressman Jones Presents New
Charges Against Senator Martin
As Lobbyist.

Congressman Jones in his speech at
Roanoke last night read three letters
from Senator Martin written between
the years 1S91-1S96 to ". A. Glasgow.
ir.. attorney for the Norfolk and
Western Railroad, which Mr. Jones
proves are conclusive evidence that Sen
ator Ma.tin was railroad lobbyist. lhe
three letters are interesting to one Ia
miliar with the past political history OF
the state. One of tue letters which MIR.
Jones states is the most important was
written October %, 1895; after Senator
Martins election to the Senate ana i
as follows
Roanoke, Va,
Dear Glasgow:
l have just read your telegram OF
the 22d to Henry Wickham. Henry
is ont in his counties canYasslng IL
is, as you know. Of the utmost import
ance that something should be 'lone
for the close districts, particularly the
senatorial districts. II your company
holds back do not see how we can get
along. Flood, for instance, writes me
that he is in a close fight. Your friends
have always been able TO rely on
Flood. and he has had to bear some I'M
popularity on account of his supposed
friendship for railroads. If he is de-
serted now, what can be expected OF
him in the future | mention him
only because Of your especial familiar
ity with his legislative course-there
are many others OF the same sort;
What is to become OF our friend
Breugh? Do your people desire
no leader or friends in the House
at all? Floods opponent, MIR. 4. I.
Hubbard, is one OF the most extreme
Populists in the State, with talent,
energy and enterprise enough to give
great deal OF trouble. Mr.. W. *.
Flanagan, who is opposing F. II. Par
rish in the Goochland Chesterfeld-PoW-
haitian District, is the same sort OF man.
His business for the past ten years has
been damagoging against railroads.
Should such men get into the ieglsla-
ture they will start measures and
demagogue them to such an extent as
to demoralize the democrats who de-
sire to be conservative and just tie cor
porate interests. Adding the fact that
those heretofore conservative Will feel
that they have been abandoned, will
expect one OF the most revolutionary
legislatures that has ever been conyen-
ed in this state If you will look over
the list of House nominees you will
find very obscure lot. With what
anin1us they will come here I do not
know. I feel that it is really unneces-
sary TO had said this much to you, but
have not been able to refrain from do
ing so, whether necessary or not, rot
nv interest is so deep in thss matter.
Should the extremists dominate the
next legislature the result will have
been accomplished at least after all
warning coule give has been given.
Your friend.

NEWS OF THE DAY,

Blinded by smoke, firemen entering
Joseph Davis's restaurant at Ninth and
Walnut streets, Wilmington, Del,
where fire was discovered at 2 O'Clock
yesterday morning, found it almost
impossible to keep their footing be.
cause of writhing mass that covered
the floor. In the glare of tie flames
they found the place filled With rats
and mice. The rodents had overrun
the restaurant for some time, living
off the refuse, and when the fire drove
them from their hiding places they
could not escape until the doors we're
broken open by the firemen. They
made such a grand rush to get out
thai some of the fremen were upset
when they stepped on them.
Suddenly becoming crazed appar-
emily by the heat, James Mahoney, a
former New York policeman, said to
be a relative of W. Bourke Cochran,
either persisted or is wandering naked
on the Nevada desert, fifty miles east
OF Reno. Mahoney left Reno three
days ago 10 accept a position with q
surveying party. On Wednesday be
appeared at the Eagle Salt Works,
stripped himself of clothing and ran
naadly across the bare sands. Mem
bers of the surveying crew spent all the
afternoon Wednesday and Wednesday
night searching for him but without
success. The search was resumed yeter-
day, but it is faared the man has per-
ished on the desert.
There was further advance yester-
day in New York in both raw and re-
fined sugar. The American Sugar
Refining Company quoted 6.25 for
standard granulated and a 1O-point ad-
vance on other grades while other re-
fners advanced 20 points for the day,
making granulated $50. Although
raw sugar, Cuba centrifugal, was quoted
at $50 at the close, this figure was
purely nominal, as none was to be had
at the price. In the last four days re-
fined sugar has been advanced 80 to 40
points, and indications point to still
higher prices, as supplies are very light.
The room ina Newark, n. j., hotel
in which Henry Butzbublen killed
himself with illuminating gas on the
night of April "a OF last year is named
as the place where his widow, Mrs.
Amelia Buzthuhlen, was surprised on
the night of June 80 aud July Is in the
company OF Joseph ]. Huber by Mrs.
Annie NJ. Huber and party of friends.
Mrs. Huber has sued her husband for
divorce. Mrs. Butzhuhlen is % years
old and striking looking blonde. The
Hubers we're married in 1897. They
have two children, while the cores
pendent is the mother of one. The
families we're close friends previous to
the death OF her husband Of the cores
pondent, and after that she is said to
have accompanied the Hubers about.
A hobble shirt. which she was wear
ing yesterday afternoon was response
bic for the death OF Miss Ida Coyette,
10 years of age, Of Troy, n. \. The
skirt caused the girl to stumble when
she tried to step over lockgate on a
bridge she was crossing, and she fell
into the Erie Canal and was drowned.

have greatly improved in Haiti since
the success of the revolution aud that
there is no longer any need OF an arm

FROM WASHINGTON.

Shortly after daylight, this morning,
the Atlantic fleet began its battle prac-
tice off the Virginia capes engaging
in evolution, under conditions as nearly
like war as possible. Admiral Hugo
Osterhaus wired the Navy Department
early this morning that the heet's
work had begun and would continue
uninterruptedly for period OF two
weeks, regardless of weather, fog, or
other conditions. The practice begun
today is probably the most important
engaged in by the feet since the globe
encircling tour, three years ago. Tar
get practice will be the most import
ant feature but at the same. time work
in the destruction of aeroplaues and
repelliug night attacks by torpedo
boats and submarines, will take
place. Today's firing was at
distance of about to 9 miles.
The maximum range will be $4,000
Yards which is a greater distance than
the fleet has ever undertaken 20 pierce
target. Firing will also be at 5000
yards and less. depending upon the
conditions at the time. Today's pre-
liminary report does not show the exact
nature of the first days work other
than that long distance firing has begun.
Apparently the work of the torpedo
and submarine crafts will not take
! place for several days and also the final
assault upon the wreck of the San
Marcos will not take place for the pres
! emit. 1t is the plan of the Navy De-
| partment, however, TO completely de-
molish the old battleship before this
weeks practice is concluded

afternoon. Three days of rain spoiled

Reports have been received at the
State Department indicating that the
conditions in Mexico have improved in
some quarters, but have grown steadily
worse in others. In the state OF Toroop,
for instance, disturbances continue and
an uprising is feared at any time.
Armed forces have beeu sent to quiet
the people but without result. The
consular reports from the state OF
Moreles, on the contrary, show that the
revolutionists and agitators have be-
come more peaceful and that there is
little or no danger to domestic or
foreign interests. In Lower California
conditions have improved since Presi-
dent de la Barra sent body Of troops
into that territory three weeks ago.
Official confirmation has been received
by the department from the embassy
in Mexico City Of the nomination OF
Madero by the progressive party and
of the adoption of platform urging
constitutional and other reforms. The
best of order prevails at the conven-
tion, the report states.
