 IN IMPORTANT CONFAR

Denver, Nov. l9-A meeting Of vital interest to the metal and coal miners of the country will be held here the middle Of November when the joint committees of the United Mine Workers and Western Federn- ton of Miners begin final conaidera- tion of plans for absorption of the Western Federation by the United Mine workers. The joint commN- tee met in Butte last month, but adjourned to meet here the middle of November.
 While the Butte conference in- dicated that the absorption would probably be recommended by the United Miners, the united Miners committee wanted to come here 10 investigate personally the member ship claims of the federation and inquire into the details of it's meeh- ods of administration.
 A member of the United Aineh committee recently expressed the opinion that, in the event Of ao- sorption, it would be year beforo the Western Federation would loae it's indentity and become merely department of the United Miners'

Actual mining for the precious metal as well as development work of properties has been going steadi- ly forward in the O'Don- nell river placer camp in the Atlin district during the past summer on a more eXten- sive scale, in a more systematic manner and with far better results thar have ever before been eXpefi- enced in that section of country, which is now coming to be recogniz- ed by mining men as one of the most promising fields for invest ment in the north.
 S. P. Fitzgerald, who left here on the City of Seattle yesterday for the outside, where he is going for the purpose of buying a big hydraul ic plant, he intends to install next spring on the two 40-acre leases he represents, has done much work in prospecting and developing the property which he controls, and has now reached a point where he is fully satisfied that values lie hidden within his possessions that are well worth the time, labor and expendi- ture of large sums for improved machinery that are necessary for it's recovery.
 During the past season he has prospected in various places dur ing progress of development work and in every instance has received additional encouragement to proceed with his undertaking.
 The principal work done for the actual opening Up of the property has been the running of 7an open cut drain 25 feet wide and of an average depth of the same number of feet, from the ODonnell river to tap the old river channel on the bench on bedrock. The drain is now in over 400 feet and all the dirt and gravel removed in the work have carried values from the grass roots down to bedrock.
 The installation of the hydraulic plant will be an easy matter as there is plenty of water with when to work and an abundance of room for dumping purposes.
 From the other claims on the O'Donnell river also come flattering reports. The Prescott outfit, who's clean-ups last summer received much publicity through the press and caused the eyes of mining men in other sec tions to turn tward Atm district, is still in big pay, the output being mostly good sized mug gets and coarse gold.
 The O'Donnell River Placer MIn- ing Co., has done extensive develop ment work, installed big hydraul- ic plant and is now ready as soon

ANOTHER RECALL
IN SUPERIOR
Petition Being Circulated for
'0usting Of Mayor J. S.
Konkel.

That another effort is to be made
to recall Mayor Konkel in Superior is
evidenced by papers being quietly
circulated throughout the city.
To date, all efforts to learn the
names of those back of the movement
have failed. Rumor had it that the
Social Democratic party was the in
stigator but such has proved to be
among the Socialists is that the move
is premature.
Grounds upon which the recall is
to be made are stated as follows:
II the undersigned do hereby de-
nand the removal of J. S. Konkel
from the office of Mayor of the city
of Superior, Wisconsin and the cleo :.
ton of successor to said J. s.
Konkel as mayor, pursuant to the
provisions OF section 925m-307 of the
statutes Of Wisconsin.
II the undersigned am qualified
elector of the city Of Superior, Wis
consin, and entitled to vote for a,
successor to said J. S. Konkel as may
or.
THE following is a. general state
ment of the grounds upon which such
removal Is sought; that said J. s..
Konkel is incompetent to perform the
duties of said office Of mayor; that
said J. S. Konkel as mayor has shown
favoritism in the enforcement of laws
and ordinances governing the city Of
Superior; that said J. s.. Konkel lacks
the moral courage to properly per-
form the duties Of said office; thai
| said J. S. Konkel. as mayor, fails,
neglects, and refuses to enforce the
laws of the state of Wisconsin and
ordinances of the city of Superior
which should be enforced for the best
interests of the city of Superior an
it's people; that the best interests o1
the, city of Superior require the re.
| moval of the said J. S. .Konkel as
mayor of Superior"
To make the recall petitions e.
fective under the provisions of the
commission government act they
must be signed by a number of voters
equal to % per cent of the tota
number of votes cast for governor a
the last general election.
AS the vote in the city for all tn
candidates for governor at the cleo
ton on November was 4,464, tn,
requisite number of signatures is l.,
116.

ORE SEASON
COMESTOEND
N. P. Shipped Last Ore Thursday
Shipments Show 1900, 900
Ton Shortage.

Ore shipments for the season of
1914 came to an end Monday night
when the last steamers sailed from
the Great Northern docks at Allouez
bay, and the 500 line dock at st.
Louis bay. The Northern Pacific
dock at the East End shipped it's
last ore on Thursday.
Shipments have also ceased from
other ports on the Great Lakes
so that the carriers engaged in this
trade will be with drawn from COM
mission upon thir arrival at the low
er lake ports.
The shipments from the three dock
systems in Superior show a reduction
of approximately 100000 tons as
compared to last seasons figures. The
loss was almost entirely in the Great
! Northern shipments.
The Great Northern this year ship
ped TO- 1000 tons of ore. The Soc
line Shipped $4,000. tons from the
Guyana range, and the Northern Pa
cific shipped $4,000 tons from the
same range.
While the shipments from the Nor
thern Pacific docks are small, they
represent the first season at the Eas'
End dock. Last year one or two
cargoes were shipped at the end Of
the season after the dock was com
pleted but they were of an expert
mental character to- a large extent
Next year the Northern Pacific ship
ments will show big increase i
the conditions in the steel and iro1
trade improve.
1t is yet too early to venture an!
opinion as to next seasons ship
ments according, to local men engaged
in the ore business. The war and it
effects on business in general pre-
vent anything like an accurate fore
cast. However, a boom is looked TO
in the steel business as soon as peac
is restored abroad

Labor Agent Charged With Abuse
ga Men Get. Jobs Son False 4
FTeLenSeS.8 - -

The revocation of the license Of one;
of the agents Of Superior's private
employment offices was recommended.
by r.; D. Scoon, deputy industrial
commissioner and superintendent Of
the Free Employment office in a let
ter to the state industrial commits
sion. f ri
Sixty-four men, Scoon alleges, were
hired by the employment agent for
work on the Great Northern ore,
docks, with. understanding that there
would be at least two Aweeks' en-
ployment for them. Sixty Of the men
paid 81 apiece for their jobs. three
paid SO cents and one paid. rs cents.
They worked two days, and were
then dismissed.
The Great Northern ore dock man
ager declares that he informed the
employment agent that the work
would be temporary so most of the
responsibility is shifted to the en-
ployment agent. ,
. Scoon charged that the agent
purposely avoided him, creating: de-
lay lin the hope that many of the
men would move on. so the number
he would have to return the fee to
would be lessened. 49,.
That the same agent has been
convicted of many similar. instances
of misrepresentation, is the charge
of Mr.. Scoon in his letter to the in
dustrial commission, urging the re
vocation of the license.
Tuesday a. representative of the
industrial commission was in the city
investigating this matter and one
other of similar nature. H.
