SOLOMON AND GROUP oF STATES CAPITALISTS FORM
 NEW MINING COMPANY

During these later years his interest in mining has meyer Jagged. and he has taken part in the development of some promis- ing mining prospects. To him the small mining man and the prospector of the Tombstone district have al ways turned for help and the help was given and probably on this ac- count Fortune has smiled and MT. Gray row has mine which promises to become one of the good mines of the southwest.

FIRE SHOULDERS
IN THE BRIGGS


 BISBEE, May 23.-Fire in the sul. phide ore bodies on the 1900 level of the Briggs mine has been causing an increasing amount of trouble in the last few days. It has become necessary to keep the fire doors be- tween Briggs and Junction mines closed Fumes in some parts of the Briggs mine have seriously interfer- ed with normal mining operations.
 Helmet crews are kept in constant readiness and have been fighting the fire more or less continuously since it first became serious last March. It has been thought at times that the fire was completely extinguished. but either this has not been the case or il has broken out afresh. Reports from the mine last night indicated that it was well under control and that very little smoke and fumes were coming from the area.
 The ventilating shaft that is being sunk below the Briggs shaft wi.l form an avenue of escape for the smoke and fumes so that fires in the future will not seriously interfere with the operation of the mine. IL will take four or five months 70 complete the shaft
 Reports in the city yesterday tha: number Of men had been seriously gassed in the mine were not true. Those working in the fire area often feel the effects Of the fumes and be- come sick. bu; none were seriously affected

NOMINATION MAY BE
AHEAD OF PLATFORM
By United Press)

Coliseum, Chicago, June 9.-The
submission of the platform of the Re
publican party by the committee on
resolutions to the national conven-
tion probably will be delayed until
after the nominees for president and
vice president are selected, it was
learned today.
This unforeseen shift in the conven-
ton plans is due to the difficulties
with which the resolutions commit
tee is confronted in framing the plank
on the league of nations and several
other debatable propositions, and 20
desire to construct a platform shat
will fit the views of the Republican
standard bearer, rather than endeavor
to secure presidential nominee to
fit the platform.
If this procedure is adopted the
rules committee will recommend that
by unanimous consent the rules be sus-
pended.
All other committee work in the
convention has been completed, and if
the rules are suspended, nominating
speeches will probably be begun late
today or tonight. These speeches will
occupy several hours.

MANY IN CONWAY
SAW GREAT METEOR

The meteor which fell at 9 o'clock
last night near Okmulgee, Okla, was
seen by many citizens of Conway. 1t
fell across the western sky, lighting
the heavens as brilliantly as a vivid
stroke of lightning. The apparent
size of the meteor was almost as large
as full moon, and it left a wide
trail of light in the sky which per-
sisted for several minutes after the
meteor had fallen Although it drop
ped more than 200 miles west of Con-
way, many believed it was much near
er and the Log Cabin Democrat re-
ceived information early today that
it had fallen between the residences
of b. M. Woodruff and C. f. Martin,
IN the northern part of the city.

of passenger train near here early
this morning.
First reports after corps of workers
had seached the debris We're that only
seven had been killed. This was in

the bodies of six more victims. Twen-
ty-seven received more or less seri-

Two rear sleepers of the passenger

the fast express.
The engineer on the express failed
to see the signels set against him,
it is believed by officials of the New

his train at its usual speed, which
it WAS holding when the passenger
train was struck.

G. o. P. NOW RIADY
FOL THE BIG FIGHT

Chicago, , une 9.-The Republican
convention swung into the second day
of its session with prospects Of
quickly cleaning up the preliminaries
and getting down to the real issue.
The night brought forth few new
developments and this morning the
party was evidently as much at sea
as ever on the ques ion of selecting
the preaid initial nominee.
Quiet hearings in the committee
rooms included a review by the ere
dentials committee of the decisions of
the national committee in the con-
tested cases. In the case of three
of the contests the decision of the
national committee was reserved by
action of the credentials committee.
The committee on permanent organ
iZation completed its report, but the
resolutions committee was reported to
be having difficulty in framing planks
on the Mexican, league Of nations and
labor questions.
New drives for delegates by the
forces of johnson, Lowden and Wood
appeared to be taking shape, but there
were no indications of any pronounc-
ed shifting of strength toward either
of the big three.

A.F.L. TO DEMAND
RETURN OF RAILS
(By United Pressl

Montreal, Canada, June 9.-Or-
ganized labor and capital may soon
find themselves fighting side by side
for the same causes within the next
few months, it was indicated today
by the American Federation of La
Dor in its convention here. 1t semed
certain that the convention would
declare for return of railways to fed
eral ownership or control, and would
also demand the repeal of the Esch-
Cummins bill, under which the rails
roads were returned to private own
ers.
President Samuel Gompers of the
federation has proposed that the con-
vention call upon the Republican party
to pat plank in it's platform plelg-
ing the return of railroads and the
repeal of the Esch- Cummins bill.
