ADVANCE IS GIVEN
The Coal Operators Concede
More to the Miners.
HAVE INCREASED ONE-EIGHTH
Operators Sny They Cannot Aftord
Advance, but Ilnd to GItc It In
View of SInrket Conditions
Predict Fall for Miners.
INDIANAPOLIS. Feb. 7. The miners
and operators of competitive districts
agreed upon a scale of wages tor the en
suing year this afternoon. The price for
mining Is to be Increased 10 cents per ton
on lii-lnch screened lump coal, pick-mining
In "Western Pennsylvania thin vein,
the Hocking. Use basing district of Ohio
and both the block and bituminous dis
tricts of Indiana; G cents per ton on mine
run coal, pick-mining in the bituminous
district of Indiana and at Danville, the
baling point of Illinois.
The price of machine mining Is to bo In
creased 8. cents per ton on screened lump
In Western Pennsylvania thin veins, and
the Hocking, the basing district of Ohio,
10 cents per ton on screened lump coal In
the block and bituminous- districts' of
Indiana, and 6 cents per ton of mine-run
coal in the bituminous districts of Indiana
and at Danville, the basing point of Illi
nois. The operators conceded that the agree
ment Is a victory for the miners. It
grants an average lncraese of wages of
12H per cent. The miners are Jubilant
over the victory. The scale Is not pal
atable to the operators. C S. Brooks,
secretary of the Ohio Operators' Associa
tion, said:
"Tho conditions of the Industrial world
and the coal market are such that we
were compelled to accede to the demands
of the men. But, remember. It will be a
dear victory for them. The operators
cannot afford to pay the advance even
now. Before many years there will be a
time of depression. Then, the fall will be
mighty for the miners. It Is the worst
day's work they have ever done. It would
have been much better for them If they
could allow the last year's scale to stand
as it was." I
Other operators expressed the same
opinion.
CAIl STRIKE IS SETTLED.
Montreal Given Advance nnd Right
to Form Union.
MONTREAL. Feb. ".The street-railway
strike was settled this afternoon by a
conference of strikers, representatives of
the railways and members of the civic
committee. The strike leaders accepted
the offer made by the company to give
the men an increase of 10 per cent In
wages and to permit the organization of
a union.
A better understanding of the conditions
which caused the break in negotiations
earlier In the day was reached. While a
union will be permitted to exist. It will
not be officially recognized by tho com
pany. All discharged men will be rein
stated. The committee promised to do all In its
power to Induce the men to return to
work at -once.
The employes at a metelng this morning
refused to ratify the terms agreed upon
by their committee and President Forget,
of the railway company, for a settlement
of the strike which began Thursday night.
President Forget met a committee 'of
the strikers last night at the request of
Mayor Cochran. 'After some discussion
President Forget announced that the
company was ready to advance the men
10 per cent and reinstate men recently
discharged, unless their dismissal had
been lor Just causes. The committee
seemed satisfied with tho terms, and a
meeting of the employes was called at 10:30
A. M. to ratify the terms of settlement.
It soon became apparent that a ma
jority of the men would be satisfied with
.nothing short of a complete capitulation
on the part of the railway company.
Speeches were made urging tho men to
refuse the terms utiles they Included cer
tain articles of the men's demands, which
required on Increase In the working force
o the company and provided that no sus
pensions whatever were to be mado per
manent. i
Conservative leaders among the men
urged the strikers to accept the conces
sions, but they were cried down, and when
a vote was taken tho proposed basis of
settlement was defeated.
Renewed conferences were then held
through the mediation of the civic com
mittee, and the parties were brought to
terms.
SBZY-S CRAPERS ARE COLD.
Elevators Don't Ran, and Tenants
Keep Warm by Climbing Stairs.
CHICAGO, Feb. 7. WithUhe addition of
one more building, a 13-story office struc
ture, on Lasalle street, to the list af
fected by the elevator men's strike and
the failure of attempts to Induce building
managers lo sign agreements recognizing
the unions of elevator conductors, the
Janitors and window-washers, there is no
reiiel in sight. The settlement of the
strike now rests with the coal teamsters.
A committee of three has charge of the
affair, with whom the strikers declare
the business managers must treat. No
coal has reached any of the buildings
since the Inauguration of the strike, and
supplies with most of them are said to
be nearly exhausted.
Up to tonight, although the managers
had held another conference, there had
been no offer of settlement made to the
strikers, who have turned their affairs
over to a committee of teamsters.
The teamsters are now in absolute con
"trol of tho situation. All coal supplies are
completely shut oft from the bulldlnes
and. If an attempt is mado to secure pow
er from tho Chicago Edison Company, the
lugmen ana ireigni-nanaiers will appar
ently be involved in the struggle and the
coal supply of the power companies will
be shut off.
OTHER ROADS DO TUB SAME.
aUssonrl Pacific and 'Frisco Give
Trainmen an Advance.
ST. (LOUIS, Feb. 7. After an all-day
conference between the officials of the
Missouri Pacific and representatives of
the trainmen, the officials of the road

cent to passenger men. Tonight, after a
short conference, the officials of the St.

A DELEGATE FOR ALASKA
CCS UMAX'S PLEA FOR LOXG-XEG.
LECTEI) TERRITORY.
Hocse Needs Information, Alaska
Needs Legislation Mining Districts
as Centers of Voting Precincts.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, "Wash
ington, Feb. 3. After repeated delays.
Representative Cushman Anally succeeded
in getting before the House his bill pro
viding for a delegate In Congress from
Alaska, and, although the hour was late
when the measure was called up, je man
aged, to condense Into a half hour the
substance of an elaborate speech he had
prepared In support of the bill. Mr. Cush
man'8 remarks were rather more serious
than is expected of him in Washington.
and made a forceful argument In behalf
of his long cherished measure.
First Real Chance.
Mr. Cushman began his remarks by ex
plaining that his bill gives to Alaska a
delegate on the floor of the House of. Rep
resentatives, and prescribes the manner of
his election. Such a delegate would have
no vote, but would have opportunity to In
troduce bills and to address the House.
He called attention to tho fact thaft this
was the first time the House had ever
given consideration to an Alaska dele
gate bill, although a bill for this purpose
had been favorably reported to the House
ten years ago. and had been brought be
fore each succeeding Congress.
He then alluded briefly to the recogni
tion that Is given not only to the Terri
tories of Oklahoma. New Mexico and Ari
zona, but cited the case ot Hawaii, having
a full-fledged delegate in Congress. Porto
Rico with a resident Commissioner In
Washington, and the Philippines to have
two resident Commissioners here as soon
as they arc chosen by the Filipino Legis
lature. With so much done for the brown
man of our outlying possessions, he
thought It time to do something for tho
white man Id Alasko. "Alaska," said he.
"Is practically the only piece of territory
under the American flag, not recently in
a state of rebellion ngalnst tho United
States, and populated by Anglo-Saxons,
Ithat has no representative on this floor."
Need of Delegate.
For ten minutes he related in concise
manner facts relating to the extent of the
territory, tho Importance of Its commerce.
Its natural resources, and. In fact, all Its
capabilities, agriculturally, in minerals. In
fisheries and in other lines. "And yet."
said he. "in spite of all this wonderful
development, the closest they come in
touch with the Federal Government is
through tho Federal Tax Collector."
In pointing out the necessity for a del
egate In Congress. Mr. Cushman alluded
( to the confusion that arose In the last
' session, when an attempt was made to
pass a bill to protect the salmon Industry
of the territory- Several members, all In
terested In the bill, and wishing to secure
its passage, made glaringly conflicting
statements of supposed facts on the floor,
and, as he said. It required more time nnd
effort to clear up tho apparent lnconslst
i enclcs than It did to plead the cause of
. the bill Itself. If a delegate Is accorded
Alaska, he will be such a man as can pre
sent the facts correctly, whenever there
is call for Information regarding Alaska
or Alaska legislation. His word will then
bo accepted, whereas now no single mem
ber is sufficiently familiar with the needs
of the territory to speak authoritatively
on all questions. "What we need ,1s a
well-informed delegate, who knows the
conditions that exist In Alaska, who Is re
sponsible, to the residents of Alaska for
what he says and whose credentials, on
the other hand, make him .responsible to
us here."
AInskan Climate.
In telling of the mild climate of South
eastern and Southwestern Alaska, and at
tempting to break down the general mis
conception in regard to the temperature
of the territory, Mr. Cushman told the
following story:
"I recall the case of a man who some
years ago spent two Winters in Alaska.
He went there as a prospector, and made
money as a miner. When he came out
and returned to the states, he was re
garded as a great curiosity to the people
of the Northwest, who In those days mar
veled that any man could survive an Alas
kan Winter. When he started for New
NTork, crossing the Northern part of the
United States in January for the first time
In his life, he got up against the business
end of a climatic condition. When he
reached St. Paul he was cold. "When the
breeze from the lake struck him at Chi
cago he was colder, and when .his train
got to Buffalo they found htm in the rear
end of the smoker, frozen stark and stiff.
That is a truthful recital."
Representative Payne, of New York,
broke in to ask if it would not be danger
ous and cruel to elect a delegate from
Alaska and force him to come to Wash
ington each Winter..
"Oh." replied Cushman, "he would be
perfectly safe if ho didn't come by way
of New York."
"But he would no doubt freeze in your
state." retorted Payne.
"Oh, no," said Cushman. "Washington
is in tho banana belt. It is the land where
the orange .blossoms grow."
Plenty of Voluntary Delegates.
Taking up the argument seriously, ho
continued:
"There la practically no member on the
floor that has adequate concepUon of the
real conditions in Alaska to properly en
lighten the House on any pending meas
ure. Yet you and I are going to be called
on to determine these matters. We are
not to blame when wo decide matters ac
cording to tho best Information that is
obtainable, but we are in some measure
.H"0.1 faU to ava" ourselves of
additional evldenco or Information." He
went on to eay that ,each "Winter there Is
in Washington a flood of gentlemen from
Alaska, each and every one of whom pro
claims himself to bo the "only genuine
simon-pure, washed-ln-the-wool traded
mark-blown-ln-the-bottle walking delegate
for Alaska." He added that the "House
ought not to depend upon every piece of
human flotsam, and Jetsam that the floit
Ing tide from Alaska happens to cast at
our door." This remark was greeted with
laughter on both sides of the House, for
many members have been greaUy annoyed
this Winter by the persistence of J. W.
Ivey and others who have endeavored to
set themselves up, and have secured some
newspaper recognition as the "only unoffi
cial delegates from Alaska."
How It Operates.
Mr, Cushman then briefly .explained the
iniem oi ma mu, aming in the work by
placing before the Speaker's desk a huge
chart of Alaska, showing the incorporated
towns, arid the proposed voting precincts
He explained that under his bill the del-
DID NOT KNOW SHE
HAD KIDNEY TROUBLE
Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and
Never Suspect It.
Gertrude Warner Scott Cured by the Great Krdney
Remedy, Swamp-Root
"Vinton. Iowa, July 15, 1301-
DR. KILMER' & CO.,. BInghamton, N. Y.
GENTLEMEN My trouble began with pain In my stomach and back, so severe
that It seemed as If knives were cutting me. I was treated by two of the best physi
cians In the county, and consulted another. None of them suspected that the cause
of my trouble was kidney disease. They all told me that I had cancer of the stom
ach, and would -die. I grew so weak that I could not walk any more than a child a
month old. and I only weighed 50 pounds. One day my brother saw In a paper your
advertisement of Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy. He bought me a bottle at
our drug store and I took It. My family could 6ee a change In me, for the better, so
they obtained more and I continued the use of Swamp-Root regularly. I was so
weak and run down that It took considerable time to build me up again. I am now
well, thanks to Swamp-Root, and weigh 14S pounds, and am keeping house for
my husband and brother. Swamp-Root cured me after the doctors had failed to do
me a particle of good.
(Gertrude Warner Scott)
Women suffer untold misery because the nature of their disease is not correctly
understood: In many cases' when doctoring, they are led to believe that womb trou
ble or female weakness of some sort is responsible for their Ills, when In fact disor
dered kidneys are the chief cause of their distressing troubles.
The mild, and extraordinary effect of the world-famous kidney and bladder
remedy. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. Is soon realized. It stands the highest for Its
wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. A trial will convince any one and
you may have a sample bottle sent free, by malL . "

egate must be at least 25 years old, and
for seven years a citizen of the United
States. Voters under the bill must have
resided In Alaska continuously for at least
90 days prior to election, and be- 21 years
old, and able to read, write and speak
the English language or some other
European tongue, as well as being citi
zens of the United States. Some ques
tion was raised as to tho provision that
they should be able to read and write
some other than the English language.
Mr. Cushman explained that this provis
ion was inserted becauso of tho large
number of desirable settlers in Alaska,
now citizens of tho United States, who
had emigrated from Norway, Sweden and
other countries of Northern Europe.
Many of them could not read or write
tho English language, yet were Intelli
gent and thrifty, and In every way do
slrablo citizens.
Voting Precincts.
The election machinery, he explained,
was necessarily different from that In
vogue in the states. He thought ad
visable to mako the outlying precincts
center In the mining districts, as these
districts wero universally the center of
groups of prospective voters. Some ob
jection was made by members that this
would be. a discrimination In favor of the
mining classes, and would hardship tho
agriculturists, but moro especially those
employed in the fisheries and canneries
of Alaska. To this charge. Mr. Cushman
replied that all such settlements were
tributary to mining districts, and that
the mining district was .the only proper
unit. He said the last Tuesday in Sep
tember was the latest possible date for
holding the election, which would war
rant fun returns In tho desired time; and
was yet sufficiently early to lnsuro full
returns being made to tho Governor at
Sitka.
- Other Friends of Alaska.
At the conclusion of his speech. Mr.
Cushman answered a number of- ques
tions from various members. Gaines of
Tennessee of course had to get In a word,
and after touching upon the requirement
that voters be ablo to read either the
English language or that of some other
European country, launched forth onto
the constitutionality of such a provision.
It was then 6 o'clock, and in perfect
good humor Cushman broke in to say:
"I hope my friend from Tennessee at
this late hour won't get started on tho
Constitution." The Houso laughed, and
Gaines subsided.
Representative Lacey followed Cushman
In a strong endorsement of the bill, and
ho In turn was followed by Wootcn of
Texas, also In Its behalf. Sulzer of New
York, who, like Wooten. has traveled
over great areas of Alaska, strongly en
dorsed the bill, and pleaded for Its enact
ment. It was then that Warner of Illinois In
terposed and bitterly attacked that fea
ture of the bill providing for the elec
tion of a"' Delegate, pronouncing such a
scheme ridiculous, expensive, and im
practicable, and recommending the sub
stitutlon of a provision for the appoint
ment of a delegate by the President.

BLACKMAIL AND MURDER
SECRET CONSPIRACY AMOXG JAP
ANESE OF HAWAII.
Remarkable Story of Bloodthirsty
Deeds of Bandits Braaeht Oat In
Their Trial for Murder.
HONOLULU. Jan. 3L Watanabe and
Funakosha, two Japanese on the Island
of Hawaii, have been found guilty of
murder In the second degree and sen
tenced to 25 and 30 years' hard labor after
a trial at which were brought out the
details of a remarkable story of con
spiracy and blackmail.
The evidence showed that Funakosha
waa the head of a gang of thugs which
demanded tribute from Japanese In busi
ness, and that one Motchlero, a Japanese
carpenter, was held as a captive and
finally murdered In cold blood because he
refused to pay blood money to tho gang.
Motchlero was ordered by Funakosha to
pay J1000 for the privileges of carrying on
his business. He paid nd attention to the
order, and was waylaid, bound and Im
prisoned by Funakosha and his aids. He
was fastened to a bed and told that J1008
was tho price of his liberty. Motchlero
could not produce the money.
One of tho witnesses testified that the
bandits wero wont to brandish knives
around their prisoner as he lay on the
bed. and threatened to cut his throat.
Testimony was also given to the effect
that when -a female companion of the
bandit chief. Funakosha, Interceded for
Motchlero, she was told by Funakosha
that It she and the prisoner would cut off
a hand and bring It to him on a plate,
Motchlero might go free.
Other testimony brought out the fact
that the gang of thugs had Inaugurated
a reign of terror and, witnesses were
afraid to glvo testimony against it.
When it was found that the money was
not to bo secured, in spite of 'repeated
beatings and threats. Motchlero was
finally murdered.- one of the gang cutting
his throat as he lay in bed.
Tho case was tho most sensational ever
held In Honolulu, and attracted much at
tention. Tho verdict of murder In the
second degree Is said to have been due to
a doubt as to who was tho actual mur

doctorlng for any particular disease', catarrh, lung trouble, stom
ach disease, rheumatism or any other chronic ailment or malady,
he Is making a serious mistake. He Is assuming the risk of tak
ing Into his system drugs of whose effect he Is totally Ignorant,
and which have been prepared In almost every Instance, by a fic
titious doctor certainly by one who knew nothing of the suf
ferer's state of health or ot the medicinal requirements of the
case. He Is simply going It blindfolded, and whether or not he
commit suicide, he Is guilty of a blunder and a folly, that Is Inex
cusable In this age of general education.
It has been claimed that It Is the great cost of expert medical
services that has encouraged the sale of these cure-alls, but un
der the nominal fee system In vogue at the Copeland Institute,
all Invalids and all needing medical attention, are fully protected
from the evil. With expert individual treatment in each Individ
ual case, at a fee rate limited to $5.00 a month, including all
medicines and .appliances, there Is no longer cither temptation
or necessity to tamper with secret nostrums.
Health Shattered
Through Failure of
"Patent Cure-Alls"
to Give Relief.
Mr. Gnrrett D. CootM, 012 Petty
grove street, corner of Nineteenth,
Portland, was a sufferer for many
years from catarrh, complicated by
stomach and liver trouble, and, as Is
often done under similar circumstances,
he undertook to "doctor" himself, tak
ing all kinds ot patent medicines and
edvertfeed "cure-alls." He not only
failed to get benefit from these reme
dies, but grew steadily worse until
Mr. Garrett D. Contcs, 12 Petty.
Rrove St., Portlnnd.
his health seemed hopelessly shat
tered. Mr. Coatcs relates his experi
ence In the following language:
"My health was very bad for six or
seven years, but until I was told by
the Copeland physicians that the root
of my trouble was catarrh. I had no
Idea what the nature of my ailment
was, but did know that I was a
Very Miserable Sinn.
I seemed to have cold all the time and
a racking cough. I could not sleep at
night on account ot the cough and
spitting. There was a discharge from
the nose and dropping back In the
throat. I had
Sharp Pnins
through the eyes and dull headache,
with a ringing and buzzing In the ears.
"My stomach was In such a sensl
tfve and. Irritated condition that -even
the plainest kind of food caused me
great distress. I
Almost Stnrved
myself, living principally on mush and
milk, yet at the same time suf
fered excruciatingly. After eating
there was a
Sickness nt the Stomncli,
and often a great weakness, and al
ways sharp pains and a craving.
"There was a great tenderness In the
right side "nnd region of the liver. My
tonguo was coated and I had
Dizziness and Flontlne Specks,
before the eyes. My bowels were In
very bad condition.
"My entire system seemed to bo
poisoned, causing a redness and ter
rible Itchlnjr of the Skin.
This added greatly to my suffering.

Have Yon Tried Soap of Oats?
Philadelphia Record.
"Soup made of oats? Why, certainly;
and It's good, too, let me tell you," said
the manager of an uptown free soup
kitchen. "I know that when we think of
oats we generally have In mind an article
of food for horses, but the grain really
contains great deal of nutriment' that
may be applied to the human being. I
need only Instance oatmeal. Still, it is
somewhat startling, to 'think; of. oat soup,
making me nervous and uncomfort
able all the while.
'Of course, no one Is going to suf
