union men and the company. and be-
lieves that an agreement entirely sat

that time. according to a statement
he made this morning.
Wages Only Contention.
The point of contention. it is said,
now rests upon the wages the union
men will receive. The wage scale of
the boilermakers' union is 56I4 cents
per hour. and il may be that this rate
will stand in the way of an immediate
settlement, but il is thought that a
proposition which will be agreeable to
both will be eventually reached and
that members Of the boilermakers'
union will complete the job.
Commissioner Hart said this morn

strides.

The best iron cleaner is a piece Of
wire gauze. II is better than sand
paper. for the dirt falls through the
holes, and 1t Is not rubbed into the

be covered with cloth on which
there are no seams or patches, as
these would mark fine linen. etc.

board of directors Of the Victor Am

veteran miners taking chances and
said his company had no system of
compensation for the injured.
Discussing collective bargaining for
labor, Mr.. Osgood outlined his atti-

wants to work for. The wages are

of the German people and comment
ed appreciatively on the large mum,
Der Of members of the reichstag who
are now serving the country at tie
front. In his exposition Of the pro-
gress of the war, the president said:
Japan joined our enemies from
desire to seize as booty the monu-
ment to German culture in the far
east. On the other hand, We have
found an ally in Turkey, as all the
Moslem people wish to throw off the
English yoke and shatter the founda,
lions of England's colonial power.
Under the banner of our army and
our seet we will continue.
In an address DR.. Won Bethmann-
Hollweg, imperial chancellor, said:
''The emperor Is absent with the
army, but he has charged me to trans
nit his best wishes and cordial greet
ings to the German house of repre-
sentatives, with whom he knows he
is united until death in stress of dan
ger in common concert for the veal
Of the fatherland.
"Our first thoughts go to the EN-.
peror and the army and navy, who
are fighting for the honor and great
ness of the empire. Full OF pride
and with unsuitable confidence, We
look on them and our Austro-Hun
garian comrades In arms, who are
firmly united to us, to fight and to-
win great battles with brilliant bra
very.
Our latest ally in the war forced
upon us the Ottoman empire, which
well knows that if the German EN-
pire were destroyed, it, too, would
lose its national right to arrange its
own destiny. AS our enemies have
formed a powerful coalition against
us, they will, hope. find that the
army of our brave allies reaches the
weak spots in their world positions"
The imperial chancellor said the
incompatible gallantry of the Ger
man troops had carried the war In
to the enemy's country.
There we will stand firm" de
clared the chancellor, "and Gun re-
gard the future with every conf.
dence. But the enemy's resistance
is not broken. We are not yet at
the end of our sacrifices. The nation
will continue to support these sacri,
fees with the same heroism as hith-

1T Is evident to us who Is respon.
sible for this greatest Of all wars.
The apparent responsibility falls on
those in Russia who ordered and ex.
ecuted the mobilization of the Rus

falls on the British government. The

at st. Petersburg that England
