Llae "Will Be First Class In All Re spects, and Will Cost About $75, 000,000 T6 Be Completed In Five Years.---. MONTREAL. Xov. 23. Canada is to ttavev a second transcontinental railway. Extending from ocean to ocean. The an nouncement was made today by Charles M. Hays, second-vice-president and gen- bboI manager of the Grand Trunk Rail-n roaa. uonscruction win De uegun as soon as necessary legislation can be obtained from the Canadian Parliament The Grand Trunk will be behind the new road und -will operate it, but, as in the case of the Grand Trunk lines west of the Detroit "River, it will be constructed under a separate corporate name, the Grand Trunk Pacific Railroad Company. The new line, according .to Mr. Hays' statement, will be of about 3000 miles, and the construction, Including .equip ment, stations, bridges, ships and other facilities, will involve an expenditure of 175,000,000 to 5100,000,000. According to the present arrangement, the new system will run through that portion of Northern Ontario known as New Ontario, starting from North Bay or Gravenhurst, Ont, and extending through Manitoba, the Northwest Territories and British Colum bia to "Butte Inlet or Port Simpson. B. C, Bs later may be determined upon. The line will be one of the most modern and up-to-date, having in view especially low grades, long tangents, steel bridges and heavy rails, as well as ample station facilities and equipment for the handling of freight and passenger traffic "No one," said Mr. Hays, "who has been studying the wonderful developments that have taken place in the Northwest during the last few years can fail to "be deeply impressed with the growth of that extensive and rich territory, and our directors' feel that, in view of the ap parent need of additional railway facili ties and in order to guarantee to the pres ent Grand Trunk system direct connec tion with that very important and grow ing section of Canada, the only wise pol icy is to take active steps towards this extension." The building of this transcontinental route has been under consideration by the Grand Trunk directorate for some time, but it was only during 'Mr. Hays' recent visit to England that it was decided to carry out the project at as early a date as possible. Mr. Hays added that the line would probably be in full operation within five years and that steamship lines on the Pacific would come as a necessary ad junct. CLEARED THE PITTSBURG YARDS. 50,000 Cars of Freight Handled in One Day. PITTSBURG, Nov. 23. After 36 hours .of the most strenuous activity on the part of the greatly augmented forces of men and locomotives, the Pennss-lvania Rail road system has made a comparative cleaning-up of its congested terminals. The car -movement breaks an records of a similar kind. It is estimated that 50, 000 cars were moed.in and ut of Pitts burg. In five hours 85 trains werp started for Altoona by the Pennsylvania, 20 per cent heavier than" the record. Tonight the Pennsylvania Railroad yards at Twenty-eighth and at Pltcalrn are freer from obstructions than at any time within five months, but the receipts of cars destined for Pittsburg shippers "will fill them up before tomorrow is passed. The cars will he moved In from the out lying sidetracks which, for 30 miles along levery approach to the city, have been stagnated with cars laden with all man ner of crude products. In the yards of the Pittsburg & Lake Erie and Baltimore & Ohio also good work was accomplished, and tonight their terminals arc comparatively close to nor mal . conditions. Before 6 o'clock eight trainmen had been taken to the hospital injured at various points. GOULD WORKED OX SUNDAY. Therefore I Is Assumed' Deal Is Xenrly Finished. NEW YORK, Nov. 23. The (World to- ujuwun ,viji say, uiai eariy mis tsunaay.) morning George J. Gould paid a visit to his office in the Western Union building. To the minds of those conversant with recent developments, the World- will add, it seemed to Indicate that the negotia tions pending between August Belmont, representing the , Interborough Rapid Transit Company, and Mr. Gould, as president of the Manhattan Railroad Com pany, for a lease of the "L" system on the basis -or .7 per cent guaranteed dlvi dend, were approaching a termination.

The possibility of the adoption by the ouujLs, seiuemenis or a gold standard, and the reports current that Mexico is about to abandon the silver standard, have greatly weakened the Indian and Asiatic silver market. Large quantities of Mexico silver are coming here f-om China, as it is believed that much gold Is being uutuiiiieu nere on account of Govern ment expenditures. The fact Is that Amer ican trade Is jroinc- to Chlnn. nri losses in silver are seriously affecting the j.iouitu ucusuij- unu Dusiness interests generally. The raDldlv ehaneinr mtps barrass the business houses, making it almost Impossible to fix prices.

The United States transport Ingalls, with Generals Miles and party on board, which struck on a reef while entering the harbor of Legaspl, Saturday, floated at high tide the same day. and will arrive here next Monday. The vessel struck on a cefral reef while going at a speed of nine knots. The shock raised the. ship two feet along Its entire length. Captain Brugiero has ex plained that he was trying to save 20 minutes by running through the chartered channel between the reefs In the center of the Gulf of'Albay, In a straight line for Legaspl, Instead of following the usual channel. A Spanish vessel, which was asked to give assistance, asked $100,000 N 1 Mexican as salvage, but these terms were declined. Captain Burgiero pumped out the vessel's water ballast, and she floated without aid. It is believed that the In galls is undamaged. Constabulary Force Increased. MANILA, .Nov. 23. The Government has Increased the constabulary force in the Island of Leyte, and has ordered a careful investigation of the condition and general situation there. The law making highway robbery a capital crime has been translated in the various dialects of the islands, and the constabulary is circulat ing copies of the law throughout the dis trict Infected by ladronlsm. The Govern ment Is desirous of warning the bandits before carrying out the new law. , Cholera in Moro Towns. -MANILA, Nov. 23. The cholera is spreading among the Moro towns on the west coast of Mindanao, and there is much destitution among the people. Quarantine Increases the- sufferings by stopping work and the movement of sup plies. General Davis has telegraphed to General Sumner, directing the distribu tion of food supplies to the sufferers. The disease is disappearing from this city. Mexico Getting: Tired of Silver. MEXICO CITY, Nov. 23. The heavy ad vance. In the gold premium has caused great excitement in financial and busi ness circles. The premium hos been rising all week, and has reached 17L It is gen erally conceded that a gold standard can not be long delayed, as silver fluctuates In value so rapidly that it cannot be relied on as a basis of currency.

Many causes have combined to bring about this activity In dairying. The active market for dairy products not yet adequately supplied has, of course, been the basl3 of It, for nothing can be done In any line without a market The care ful Instruction In methods by the State Agricultural College has been an import ant factor. Another tremendous promot ing cause has been the helpful attitude of the Southern Pacific Company. Mr. Markham, traffic agent of the company In this, fleld for several years, was an enthusiast in dairy matters, and, with the approval of his superior officers at San Francisco, he put the whole facilities of the Willamette Valley Unes at the dis posal of the dairymen.- Rates. upon dairy stock, creamery supplies and upon the finished product were established upon a very low basis, and an immediate advance in the business was the consequence. Mr. Markham has since left this field, but the movement which he inaugurated has been intelligently and diligently followed up by Messrs. Miller and Coman, who in turn succeeded him. The Introduction of the condensory at Forest Grove, of which I spoke in a former letter in this series, is an Important advance; and it is the gen eral opinion that in a sense dairying in Western Oregon has but Just begun. There is almost no limit to Its possibili ties, ana xne ume muse surely come when there will be 10 cows in the Valley to every one at this time. Oregon enjoys a great advantage in the almost uniform good health of its cat tle. In part this Is due to the fine climate, which permits and encourages an 'almost continuous out-of-doors habit partly to the wholesome feeds of the country. But there is another reason, and one highly creditable to cattle-owners, namely, their willingness, and even eagerness, to en force the rule which consigns diseased an lmals to Immediate destruction. Oregon was the first among the states to enact a strict animal inspection law, and in the 15 or more years since it has been on our statute books there has been no dlsposl tlon to evade Jts very rigid and very wholesome provisions. In this matter, as in many others connected with the stock industry of the country, the late W. S. Ladd set a fine example to the country. His fine dairy herd of Imported blooded stock, assembled at his model farm, near Portland, at a cost of approximately $40, 000, was found by the inspector, about 15 years ago, Infected with bovine tubercu losis. It was a hard blow to a man whose interest and pride as well as his money were deeply involved. But there was not one moment's hesitation. "Let the rule be enforced strictly," said -Mr. Ladd and a' tragedy -followed, for the whole herd was slaughtered and cremated. While this, in the nature of things, was the most no table case, many other, and smaller own ers exhibited equal spirit and the result is that Oregon has escaped the Infections which have so damaged the cattle indus try elsewhere. The dairy products of Ore gon are as wholesome as a careful system of inspection, supported by public senti ment including the sentiment of herd- owners themselves, can make them; and one may drink a glass of milk or butter his hot cakes without fear, of dire conse quences. A. H. GREETINGS ACROSS LINE EVERYTHING TO BE LOVELY IX CO LOMBIA HEREAFTER. Rear-Admiral Casey Toole Prominent Part is Getting: the Belligerents to Come Together. SAN JOSE, Costa Rica. Nov.. 23. Gen eral Vargas Sajitos, the military director of the Colombian revolution, has sVt the following message to General Herrera, on the occasion of the signature of the treaty of peace at Panama: "Let us congratulate ourselves. I have full confidence In you. May this solemn act establish a true republic" In an interview General Santos said: "My hopes have been realized regarding the termination of the war. If the spl emn treaties insure the rights of the Lib erals as citizens of my country, I am sat- lsfled that the hard lesson that has been received by the Liberals and the' Con servatives In the fighting of the past 37 months will never be forgotten. We are seeking government offices, but only want the due representation of our party In Congress and in the municipalities, and a respect for private property. There is a need of the organizing of a fair Judicial power and to make the liberty of the press effective. We want to have the right to educate our children according to our wishes, and we want honesty in the public treasury, which so far has been at the disposal of privileged families, re sulting In the reduction of the majority of the people to poverty. When I have received a copy of the peace treaty I shall decide as to my future movements. I haVe received many, congratulatory tele grams." General Vargas Santos shows remark able energy, considering his advanced age of 72 years. LIKES THE UNITED STATES. But Venezuelan Reprobates Britain and Germany. CARACAS, Nov. 23. Discussing Venezu ela's foreign relations, Dr. Lopez Baralt Minister of the Interior, said: "Toward the United States Venezuela entertains the kindliest fpellngs of friend ship, and she remembers with gratitude the great services of the great Republic In the past Venezuela Is determined, so far as she is concerned, that nothing shall occur to disturb in the slightest de gree the existing understanding with the American Legation and the friendly rela tions between the two countries. Venezu ela has nothing to complain of regarding the way In which the various Important questions have been treated, and, except forborne pending questions, her foreign relations have been of a cordial charac ter. "The English government at Trinidad published a few days ago an official de cree, declaring the blockade of the Orinoco null and void. If there is any place where the blockade Is effective it is the Orinoco, for, besides the land defenses, we have maintained several gunboats, which have efficiently performed there all the duties appertaining to a blockade. "The English, too, are inconsistent, for, while one Journal at Trinidad published the decree declaring the blockade to be Ineffective, the Mirror, another publica tion, insists that Venezuela Is loyally ful filling her international duty In this re spect. The Brltisn oloop-of-war Fantome entered the Orinoco without permission, and President Castro has directed a pro test against this Infringement on Venezu elan sovereignty. It has been, recognized that the principal foreign ships shall ask permission to enter the mouth of the river, and we cannot understand the dis regard of this rule. A similar protest has been sent regarding the action of the Ger man warship Panther, which also entered the Orinoco yrithout permission. "Another act which has provoked aston ishment was the hoisting of the British flag on the Island of Patos. Venezuela's right to this island cannotbequestlOned. Geographically, historfcally and political ly, -It Is Venezuelan territory. With .the Island of Trinidad, it is recognized as forming, part of the old Spanish colony by the treaty of Amiens. -Trinidad was ceded to Great Britain bill 3?aYos Island" remained, and was recognized as an, in tegral part of Venezuela. THe Brl'tish claim to Patos Island was. based on the act of the -former Spanish" Governor, which was not recognized by Spain. If further evidences of Venezuela's rights were needed, tne fact that the island Is situated scarcely three miles from the Venezuelan mainland, while It is 10 miles from Trinidad, is sufficient The Impreg nability of Venezuela's position is shown by the facility with which we have re piled to every argument in support of the British contention advanced by the Min ister of that country. Patos Island is Venezuelan, and must remain so." Regarding the relations between Ven ezuela and Germany, the Minister said: "Germany has never given Venezuela any Intimation of its purpose to enforce the collection of its pending claims. Pres ident Castro has no intention of evading a Just obligation contracted by the gov ernment hut, on the contrary, will meet It loyally. At the same time, he cannot be expected to permit any actlon'lnfrlng ing the rights and dignity of the govern ernment" ADMIRAL CASEY'S PART. Gave the Colombians a Speech and Advised Them to Be Good. PANAMA, Nov. 23. The Star and Her ald says that at the conference on Thurs day on the Wisconsin, a distinguished son of Uncle Sam, Rear-Admiral Silas Casey, actftd as a mediator and peacemak er, which conduct, it remarks, reflects great credit on a nation whosd motives for doing ' good are too frequently dis paraged. Admiral Casey, In a brilliant speech, extended to the negotiators hla heartfelt good wishes, highly praising them for their judgment and patriotism and their arrangement of such a delicate matter. General Cobas, Chief of Minister Per donro's staff, who spoke in English, made an eloquent reply to Jhis speech, and in the name of Colombia thanked the gal lant Admiral for the hospitality and at tention the negotiators had received on board his flagship, and also for his gen erous intervention In the arrangement to bring about peace In that zone of Colom bian territory'. It is said that the impas sioned, patriotic utterances of General Cobas brought tears to the eyes of Gen eral Herrera. Troops already areMelng sent away. Nearly 1000 men will leave to night for Barranquilla. As soon as the revolutionary gunboat Padllla arrives here the troops In the Cacau Province will be sent to Buena Ventura, on the Bay of Choco. General Herrera and his secretaries have arrived at Agua Dulce, accompanied by a government commissioner, bringing the news of the conclusion of peace to the gunboat Bogota, 1 order to prevent a fight with he Padllla, should they meet. General Salazar, Governor of Panama, has set all the political prisoners at lib erty. The commander of the British cruiser Phaeton offered General Salazar to com municate the news of the treaty of peace to Captain Marmaduke, the commander of the Bogota. The offer was accepted and the Phaeton sailed last night Saloon Was Dynamited. MAHANOY CITY, Pa Nov. 23.-i-The most destructive dynamiting outrage that ,has occurred in the coal regions since the strike began was perpetrated' here at 0 o'clock this morning. Dynamite with fuso attached was placed on the bar of the saloon of Christopher Portland. The front part of the building was blown across the street the adjoining buildings on either side were wrecked, and windows In every house in the square were broken. Portland and his family, who were asleep on the third floor, escaped without serious injury. Portland's two sons are nonunion men, and worked during the -strike. STEEL TRUST IN AUSTRIA Labor in Bad Way and Public Worlc Will Be Started. VIENNA, Nov. After several months' negotiations, the Austrian and Hungarian Iron and steel industries have succeeded in forming a gigantic combi nation comprising 23 separate establish ments, the capital of which aggregates 570,000,000. The new organization is a cartel or combination under .which each establishment is worked separately, though all are supervised by a cantral board which regulates the output and fixes prices. This combine includes prac tically every Important iron and steel interest in the dual monarchy, such as the production of raw Iron, bars, plates, nails and wire. The agreement will be effective for 10 years, expiring June 13, 1912. The Austrian anS Hungarian cartels are organized separately but worked Joint ly. The Austrian combination has IS mem bers and the Hungarian five. . It Is anticipated that this organization will result in great "improvement in the industrial situation, which just now is exceedingly unsatisfactory, particularly in motive ard wagon work branches. Of 20,000 machinists in Vienna, SOOO are reported to have been discharged re cently. The wagon and locomotive works In other parts of the country are em ploying only about half the regular force, and one result of these conditions Is a large increase in emigration, particularly from the iron districts of Bohemia, whence hundreds of persons have lately gone to Canada, Mexico and America. The general situation Is likely to Improve shortly, when extensive public works, in cluding the construction of canals and railroa"d bridges, will be begun. These public works In Austria will, it Is esti mated, cost $75,000,000, and in Hungary $37,700,000. FOREIGN STOCK EXCHANGES. German Bourse Stogrnnnt Iron Man ufacturers Organize. BERLIN, Nov. 23. Under the influence of foreign exchanges the business in the bourse here last week was stagnant, but quotations In most departments were bet ter maintained than on the non-German exchanges. The weakest department was that of domestic loans, which, being heavily sold, lost more "ground than usual. Some operators claimed that the selling of German 3s proceeded from the United States, but this assertion is dis credited, American holdings in these stocks being too Insignificant- The sit uation on Wall street however, is re garded as one of the chief causes of the drop, since New York continues to offer fbllls for discount here In large amounts, una u is oenevea mat tne American ae mand for German money will Increase towards the end of the year, resulting In higher money here. Hence the ten dency to sell domestic loans. Foreign government securities have been quite neglected and most industrials were also a trifle less, but coal shares have im proved upon the arrival of cold weather and thj increased production of the mines. Iron shares were weak upon the failure to renew the Sfegen pig-iron syndicate, but quotations, generally were fairly main tained. A meeting was held at Cologne this week of all the German bar iron manufacturers, and a committee was elected to organize a common selling agency for home and abroad. Better Feeling: in London. LONDON, Nov. 23. The situation on the stock exchange closed last week a trifle .more hopeful than It began, having weath'cred an uncomfortable period of de pression in Americans and Kaffirs, par ticularly in the latter. Silver continues to achieve lower records In Its price as a result, it Is saldof a determined bear tatdVon the part IS Paris .operators. The uncertainty regarding the future of the white metal is accentuated by reports in. circulation that a gold standard will be adopted by the Straits Settlements, and that China Is likely to ship large quan tities of silver to meet the' lnterest on her war Indemnity. vr.r The almost total failure" of- the Colonial loans, those of Natal and-British Colum bia, had a depressing effect on consols and home rails also closed almost uni formly lowrtr in spite of good traffic re ceipts, although next settling day is not looked forward to with much satis faction. The money .market was Arm and Is likriy to continue so until the end' of the year. , ROBBED AND MURDERED. Second Crime of the Kind in Cincin nati Factory. CINCINNATI, 67" Nov. 23.-Edward Saatkamp, accountant and acting super intendent of the Ross-Moyer Machinery Tool Company, was killed today at the factory here. His body was found to night In a pool of blood in the counting room, and every indication points to a struggle, but no clew to the- deed can be found. The only other person known to be about the building was the colored janitor, and the most vigorous "sweating" has failed to hold him. Last June John Slefert, another employe, was found mur dered in the engine-room of the same fac tory, and the mystery of that deed has never been solved. Both victims were robbed. No Trace of Itoclc Island Robbers. DAVENPORT, la.. Nov. 23. It looks tonight as though the Rock Island train robbers, who blew open the safe of the train held up. Just outside the city, Satur- aay morning, have, made good their escape. A sensation was created today by the report that the bandits had been sur rounded in a corn field near Buchanan. A special train, with a Sheriff's posse on board, was made up here and started for Buchanan. Word was received that the men had been captured before the train arrived, but the prisoners proved to be a gang of hoboes and not the men wanted. Girl Shot by Riotous Fellow. CHEBOYGAN, Mich., Nov. 23. Eva Fetherstone, 16 years -old, was shot in the back today, probably fatally, by one of a party of five riotous fellows who passed her in a wagon. John RIordan, who recently came here from England, Is under arrest.

HE KILLED YELLOW-FEVER AND NOW HE DIES' FROM ATTACK i OF APPENDICITIS , Major Walter Reed, of the. Snrgeon General's 'Department of the Army Skilled Scientist. ' WASHINGTON, Nov. 23. Major Walter Reed, an officer of the Surgeon-General's. Department of. the Army, died here to- 'day. .Major Reed was sent to Havana to Investigate the yellow ,fever question, and It was largely through his researches that the determination was reached that the disease was communicable through the mosquito. His death was due to ap pendlcltls, for which an operation was h performed last Monday. County, Virginia, In 1851, and was a grad uate of the medical department of the University of Virginia and of Bellevue Hospital, "New York City.' He was ap pointed an assistant surgeon in the Army in 1875, and at the time of his death xyaa first on the list of Majors and surgeons In the medical department of the Army. He had been known for years as one of the foremost bacteriologists- and patholo gists of the country. In JS93 he was ap pointed curator of the Army Medical Mu seum, In Washington, and gave his time to the science he loved. . Combining In an unusual degree scien tific accuracy with calm Judgment, he was invaluable In his ability to search out the ca'dsea ,of epidemic diseases and trace their progress. During the Span ish-American War he was a member of 'the board to investigate typhoid fever in the Army. Afterwards he made several voyages to Cuba, and was on duty In Havana, studying the diseases of the isl and, more particularly yellow fever, as a member of the board to investigate that disease. After a series of brilliant ex periments, which c-st the life of one mem ber of the board In 1901, it was announced as a proved fact that yellow fever is con veyed by a certain variety of mosquito and Introduced Into the blood of non immunes by Its' bite. Sanitary measures tending to the destruction of this Insect and the screening of Infected persons were liut Into "effect Immediately In Ha vana by order of General Wood, with the result that for over- a year no case of yell&w fever has developed, though the disease had existed permanently in Ha vana for three centuries.

The funeral will take place Tuesday afternoon at St Thomas "Episcopal Church. KRUPP'S DELICATE HEALTH. Had Loner Suffered More About His Lnrjfe Affairs. BERLIN, Nov. 23. The first assumption that Herr. Krupp, the great gunmaker, whose death was recorded yesterday, committed-suicide Is yielding to precise and abundant testimony to the contrary. Professor Binswanger, a physician of the highest reputation, was in the apartment adjoining Herr Krupp's sleeping-room when he was stricken on Saturday morn ing, and Dr. Pahl. Herr Krupp's family doctor, also was in the house. They sum moned several other physicians, and it is regarded as being beyond belief that all of them should have connived at a con cealment of the cause of death, which they ascribe to a stroke of apoplexy, induced, they add, unofficially, by mental excite ment from which Herr Krupp was suf fering. ' Herr Krupp's medical history for sev eral years past indicates that he was in delicate health. He was asthmatic; had a weak heart, and was subject to faint ing spells. He fell to the ground uncon scious while In Genoa several years ago, and again while at dinner at a hotel here 18 months ago. He had been warned to avoid over-fatigue and worry. He was at Hamburg Thursday last, and at the Ham burger Hof It was observed that he was in a highly nervous condition, and scarce ly in control of himself. His condition ac coqntedfor the 'presence of two physi cians. Jn the housGj at the time of his death," one of them being Professor Bin swanger. Mrs. Krupp was sent for from Jena. She is suffering from a nervous malady, but was brought to Essen In a special train, arriving there this morning. The funeral has been fixed for Wednesday. Chancellor Von Bulow, all the Ministers and a great number of -other officials, fol lowing the example of the Emperor, have telegraphed their condolences to the widowi Herr Krupp leaves two daughters, who are at school, one named Barbara, aged 17, and the second named Bertha, 15 years old. Herr Krupp's favorite study was to think out schemes for improving the well being of the lower classes, which he ap plied practically to what are called "labor colonies." He assented seemingly to most socialistic principles, except that he held tight to the wage system, averring that the wage-earners were "hot yet sufficiently developed or self-controlled to regulate for themselves a just system, of division of profits. It is mentioned as an odd chance that a man who applied social re form ideas in so extensive a way should have been crushed by a social democrdtic newspaper, which regarded his measures to ameliorate the condition of laborers as not touching the question of economic Injustice. Herr Krupp's father developed the sys tem of modern dwellings for the working man as matter of expediency, and Herr Krupp himself appears to have developed them from conviction, and in accordance with his Ideals. He owned 5G09 dwellings, each, to whatever group it belonged, be ing constructed with variations In the architecture to avoid monotony. Each house had a front yard, In which were bits of ornamental gardening; the outsjdo coloring and the Interior decoration gave a certain aesthetic unity, while there was plenty of space and light. Herr Krupp had also a variety of Institutions, some of them rather singular, such as "Bachelor Homes" and "Widowers' Retreat." Be sides convalescent hospitals and orphan ages, he had a pension, fund for his em ployes, amounting to $4,123,000. He con tributed last year, as requested by law. $372,000 to the National Insurance Fund, and gave voluntarily $4,OSO,000 to other in surance funds. Notwithstanding his benevolent inter ests, he was autocratic In the manage ment of his concerns. He was almost un known by sight to his workmen, and rare-, ly visited the works, or even his offices.

A TEN PER CENT RAISE (Continued from First Page.) Sturges, Pine Hill Company, of the Schuylkill region; J. L. Crawford, Peo ple's Coal Company. Scranton; H. C. Reynold-' Wyoming Coal & Iron Com pany. Scranton; W. L. Connell, Green Ridge Coal Company, Scranton & Enter prise Coal Company; Dr. J. N. Rice, Riverside Coal Company. Scranton; J. L. Cake. Clear Spring Coal Company, and Raub Coal Company, Pittston; Joseph J Jermyn, of Jermyn & Co., Scranton, and C. P. Simpson, West End Coal Company, Scranton. Mr. Connell, who is the Re corder (Mayor) of Scranton, is chalnnan of the committee. Mr. Simpson Is as sociated in business with L. H. Watkins. one of the strike commissioners, although Mr. Watkins is not connected with the West End Coal Company, or any other anthracite coal concern. The Independent operators will take a firm stand for some recognition in the matter of a settlement with the miners. It is authoritatively stated they willnot assume the. attitude of belligerents when the committee meets the coal .qperatois, nor will they appear as supplicants. The Independents feel that if an increase In wages la agreed upon, they will want some concession from the coal-carrying railroads In order to compensate them for granting an Increase to the .miners. The independent coal com panies, It is understood, do not sell their product directly to the con--sumer. They turn It over to the coal carrying railroads, who give the Inde pendent concerns, generally speaking. 65 cents on every dollar, retaining 35 cents for hauling and selling the coal. The in dependents say that if wages are in creased the large companies have it with in their power to increase the price of coal to the consumer or maintain the present high price at the mines, which was fixed by some companies after the strike In order to compensate them for the damage entailed during the suspen sion. The independents say they must take what the companies give, them 65 cents on $1 but will make an effort to have It Increased to 70 or 75 cents on 51. The Independents say they could com plicate matters if they cared to, but feel it would not be fair to the public or themselves to do so. While It has not been officially stated. It Is understood that whatever agreement Is submitted to the strike commission for approval must first have the approval of all the compan ies. If the Independent companies were disposed to disagree on a settlement made between the large companies and the min ers. It would make matters Interesting. A common remark heard in the anthracite regions is "that no matter what the big companies do, the smaller concerns will have to go along." The Independents do not see it in that light. But the large companies have been gradually absorbing the Independent companies, and in the case of several of those small operators It Is only a question of time when the large companies will have control of all of them. There has as yet been no definite time set for the holding of the conferences be tween representatives of the large com panies and the mineworkers. Attorneys and other persons representing the big companies have gone to New York and Philadelphia for Instructions and author ity to act. Nothing will be done here until they return clothed with the power to negotiate a settlement Clarence S. Darrow, leading counsel for the Miners' Union, was in New York today on pri vate business. It Is said. What Miners May Get. While nothing' has been agreed upon, the best forecast that can be made at this time Is that the men will receive In the neighborhood of a 10 per cent Increase, a nine-hour day, the weighing of coal to be adjusted aa It best can, and agree ments between the men and the company by whom they are employed. The agree ments, it is expectd, will run for a term of two or three years, from November 1. The four particular demands of the min ers are for a 20 per cent Increase, an eight-hour day, weighing of coal wherever practicable by the ton and yearly trade agreements'., A representative of the miners said to day that it is possible the men employed by each company will have a committee or organization to deal with the company officials, the men to have the privilege of calling into the conference for advice the National president of the union in case of disputes. If this scheme Is not adopted then another which will have the collec tive bargain idea, it Is believed, will be agreed upon. The report that the commission was the first to suggest that the opposing forces get together on the outside Is true. The suggestion was made to leading counsel on each side, and Mr. MacVeagh went to New York and received the consent of the -officials there. The commission saw that .the proceedings would be Interminable, and, if possible, it would be better to have them make another effort to settle their differences without the commission com pelling them to take something which would not satisfy either party. In the meantime, the commissioners will go ahead and study the situation from facts and figures to be presented just as they have been doing. The sub-committee did not meet today. Commissioner Clark, who Is now presi dent of the Order of Railway Conductors, attended the regular meeting of the dis trict organization of the order here. A representative of one of the smaller com panies, well versed to speak In the pres ent situation, eald today: "The independent operator is in an un fortunate position. Every time the large companies and the union get Into a con flict the smaller concerns, whose men as a rule have no grievances, are drawn into It and the independent company must share the burden, of the battle." "While the individual companies are not willing to do bo, many of them felt it "would be better to make terms with the Unfted Mineworkers Af America and live In peace than to have their business dis turbed every time the others -get intp a quarrel, which always draws them into it. It would be a matter of self-preservation." Chlcagonns Triumph in Paris. PARIS; Nov. 23.

After Judge Johnson has given judgment the case may be taken to the Supreme Court on a writ of error. What CORsampfien Means To-day, o Thee was a time when that word consumption struck terror to the stoutest heart. It need not do so now. In the light of present knowledge i consumption is always to be considered hopefully. We all know that when the little consumption germs have once gained a foothold in the lung tissue there is no one remedy which will di rectly destroy them or drive them out. The only thing that will eventually dislodge them is an abundant supply of rich blood throughout the whole body and particularly in the lungs. This will build up healthy tissue in which the germs cannot live. To get this needed supply of good blood, and keep it pure, there are many things to do and you must try to do them all. Live all day in the sunshine and air. Sleep all night in a room that gets plen ty of both. Keep warm. Don't use up one extra ounce of energy. Rest a great deal. Learn how to breathe. And above all take regular, abund ant nourishment.' . Let your doctor prescribe what medicine or stimulants you need, if any, and advise you about bathing and what to eat. And with, his consent add to this Scott's Emul sion. No other form of nourish ment is so rich in material for making good blood and repairing damaged tissue. It acts with- peculiar directness upon the lungs and lends valuable aid in driving out consumption germs. We do not say it is a cure for consumption. There is no consumption specific. Scott'a Emulsion is simply one of the most effectual of the many good influences, any one oi which may turn the scale in your favor. With right living and proper nourishment there is always good ground for hope. Men have lived tc healthy old age with only one lung. The germs got the other. If a burglar crept into youi room at night and had you by the throat you would not stop to calculate how much help you needed. You would shout for all the help you could get. This is how you must treat consumption. Summon every possible force to drive it out bv getting good blood and keeping it oure. You should not neglect a single source of help. You certainly cannot afford to overlook Scott's Emulsion. Well send you a sample free upon request SCOTT & BOWNE, 409 Pearl St., New York.
