CHARLESTON, W. Va, Aug. 81
G.N.S0.-John B. Easton, presi-
dent Of the West Virginia Fedora
ton of Labor, bluntly refused to
appear before A. F. of L., officials
in Atlantic City today, to stand
trial for his refusal to deny c. 1.
o. unions representation in the
State convention.
In a telegram to President
William Green, declining to
appear on charges of insubordina.
ton, Easton defended his refusal
to GUST the C. I. o. bodies from
the convention in Parkersburg
last week.
Our only defense, should we
appear in person." he declared,
would be that the practices of
the federation in the past and
the plans for the future unani-
mously met with the approval of
the delegates to the convention.
IF this movement, which we
have built, and which is func-
tionly smoothly, is disputed or
broken down, then some one

U.N.SO .-Although Arthur jerks

of four members of the Congress
sional Elections Committee to his
claim he was elected last Novem-
Der, which confirmed his election,
the mystery of what happened to
"a missing ballots still was I'm
solved today.
The committee ended its four
day investigation into the disputed
contest between jerks and Al
phonse Roy CD, during which
439 Newton voters testified they
voted, and it was testified that
eight persons who since died voted,
while five absentees and three i'll
persons were not questioned.
Three Republican members Of
the committee were joined by one
Democrat in voting that evidence
supported the contention of jerks
that he had been elected.
I'VE have established that 458,
not 424, persons voted. There
remains no question of the right
of jerks to hold the seat in
Congress as representative of the

3 IN SENATE, s
IN HOUSE FIGHT
FOR new POSTS
N. Y. MayoraIty Is Lure
to Sen. Copeland
BY ROBERT HUMPHREYS

QN.S). At least nine men,
bers OF Congress today are cherish
ing the notion that "the grass Is
greener on the other fellows side
Of the fence"
Already holding offices as sena-
tor or representative, these men
have been seized with the desire
to explore new political pastures.
Senator Copeland, CD of New
York, is engaged in campaign for
the New York mayoralty, held by
former congressman, Fiorella La
Guardia.
q BLACKS JOB SOUGHT
Representative Lister Hill CD
Of Alabama, chairman of the
House Military Affairs Committee,
rushed home two weeks ago from a
European vacation to announce he
would seek the Senate seat left va
cant when Senator Black was ap-
pointed a Supreme Court justice.
Hills colleague, Representative
Hobbs, also is being doomed for
the office temporarily held by
Senator Dixie Bibb Graves, ap-
pointed by her governor-husband.
Another House member, Repre-
sentative John Miller CD of Ar
kansas, intends to run to fill the
vacancy created through the death
of Senator Joe Robinson.
Two Senators may seek to be-
come governors of their home
States. They are Senators Guffey
CD of Pennsylvania and Moore
Cd of New Jersey, both of whom
are being doomed for gubernato-
rial office next year. In the New
Jersey race for governor, the name
of Representative Wene CD also
frequently has been mentioned.
OUT TO GET WHEELER
In its 28-year-old "baby" men,
Der, Representative Jerry O'Con-
nell CD, of Montana, the House
has a member who is being hailed
as the "reprisal" opponent Of Sen
ator Burt K. Wheeler, who led the
court fight and who has to stand
for reelection next year.
Should O'Connell be successful
he would have to wait until June
IA, 1899, to achieve the fruits of
his victory if Senate precedent, in
voked two years ago when 29-year-
old Senator Holt Cd, of West Vir-
ginia, was elected, is maintained.
That's the date of O'Connelps 30th
birthday.
Should Copeland be chosen
mayor of New York, friends of
Representative Caroline O'Day
Cd, of New York, propose to
boost her for the Senate seat he
would leave vacant.
PETTENGILL TO QUIT
Only one Republican in either
House has indicated he would like
to break new ground. Represen-
tative Willard (RO of New York,
plans to run for surrogate judge
Of his native State.
One House Democrat, however,
believes he has a better plan Tor
1898 than any of 'em. He is Rep
resentative Samuel B. Pettengill
of Indiana, who has announced
that he will not run for anything
he's going to retire to private
life and a South Bend law
practice.

MANTEO, N. c., July 5.-The
story of the ITO men, women and chill
dren who tried to plant the first
English settlement in America, only
to meet a strange and mysterious
fate, was told in dramatic pageantry
last night as North Carolina began a
63-day celebration of the founding of
Sir Walter Raleigh's lost colony
$50 years ago
The pageant-drama, written by
Paul Green, North Carolina Pulitzer
winning playwright, was enacted in a
big amphitheater carved from the
sand dunes on the northeast shore of
Roanoke Island, hardly a stones
throw from the log stockade of old
Fort Raleigh, site of the Inflated
settlement.
Lyrics written to fit sixteenth CEN
tury ballads, along with the early
chants Of the Church of England, lent
a musical background to the unfolding
of the drama that began in Elizabe-
than England and shifted to the
lonely shores of Roanoke Island.
