' American War, LONDON, Jan. 20. Amid an absolute ellcnce that was a striking trlbuto to the deep Interest fell In the matter, Lord Crnu bomc, undor secretary for foreign affairs In tho House of Commons today mado tin first official statement which has ever ema nated from tho Ilrltlsh government regard ing Its private attitude toward the United States In the war with Spain. Tho subject, of tho proposed European Intervention In tho Spanish-American war was brought up by Henry Norman, liberal, In tho form of a question asking whether any communication proposing or concern feig Joint or collective action by the Euro yean states In view of the outbreak or ex pected outbreak of the late war between the United 8tatcs and Spain was received from tho Austrian or any other government, and If so what was the naturo of tho reply of her majesty's government. Mr. Norman further Invited Lord Cranborno to lay tho papers In the caso on the table. Move Sialic llefore War. Lord Cranborno In reply said no such communication bad been made to the gov ernment after tho outbreak of the war, but that Immediately beforo tho war communi cations wero received from other powers suggesting tho presentation of a Joint notd to tho president of tho United States. Her majesty's government agreed to Join with the other powers In a noto expressing th hope that the negotiations of her majesty might lend to a peaceful settlement, ac companied by guarantees acceptable to the United States for the preservation of order In Cuba. ' ' The government first took stops to ascer tain whether the presentation of tho note, as well as Its terms, would be acceptable to the president. Her majesty's government, Lord Cran borno continued, declined to aseoclato It self with othor subsequent proposals which loomed open to the objections of putting pressure on the government of tho United' Btates and offering an opinion on Its ac tion. The under secretary concluded with say ing ho .was unable to lay the papers In the caso on tho table This statement was received with a burst of ringing cheers such as seldom, greets tho mere answer of a parliamentary question. Inquiries mado by the Associated Press concerning tho "subsequent proposals" men ttoncd by Lord Cranborno elicited Important Information from the Foreign office. There It was stated that Great Britain had been twice formally approached on this matter. but only once after the commencement of hostilities between Spain and the United States. Lord Cranborne's references to more than one proposal were evidently gen eralization which Included tentative pro posals not officially recognized.

NEBRASKA POULTRY SHOW OPENS TIDAY Livestock Itrceilers In Convention To- nlRht OrRanlxed Agriculture In Vnrlona Ilranclies Ilecltn tloiia In Schools, (Prom n Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Jan. 20. (Special.) Stale Food Commissioner tlassett says that ho Is heartily In favor of tho pure food bill Intro duced In congress last Saturday by Con gressman jAtnes K. Mann of Illinois. The measure provides for the Immediate pre vention of transportation of doleterlous foods and drinks either between states of the union or to and from foreign countries, and for the appointment of a national food commissioner with headquarters nt Wash ington, who will have at his service, In whatever part of the country ho Is operat ing, the machinery of the United States and the United States district attorneys Tho bill Is Intended primarily to give tho support of tho general government to the state regulations. Tho National Afeocla tlon of Retail Grocers, of which thcro are several hundred members In Nebraska, has taken the Initiative in promoting the pro posed legislation "I am confident tho bill Introduced br Congressman Mann Is the solution of tho pure food problem," said Commissioner Dassctt today. "What we need Is somo unl form legislation and tho support of the fed eral authorities. "With such help It would be an easy matter for tho various states to prevent tho manufacture or sale of Impure or Imitation foods." Everything savoring of persecution has been eliminated from tho measuro and Its language Is so simple nnd direct that It has received tho unanimous support, not only of every great association of retail and wholesale grocers In tho country, but of canncrs' and preservers' associations, candy makers' associations an many allied bodies of manufacturers, Jobbers 'and retailers Working In secret tho promoters of the bill have brought to their sldo tho wholesale grocers' associations of Chicago and In the samo way the bill has been considered and reported favorably by retail and wholcsalo dealers In Nebraska. Its. strongost claim for support is that It places bm a protective agency a national Tho occasion upon which Great Britain deliberately put Its foot down was, accord Ing to tho Foreign office, whon tho Austrian bureau that has executive powers, not over ambassador at London interviewed Lord Impure goods manufactured In any state, Salisbury and asked him If Groat Britain but over those that manufacturers attempt would bo willing to Join In a collective note to send elsewhere from tho European powers, urging the United States to desist from war with Spain. Such a noto was not to threaten reprisals or Intervention, but was to bo in the nature of fltrong protest nnd a pica for arbitration. Lord Salisbury, so the representative of the Associated Press was Informed, regarded this proposition as unwarrantable Interfer ence in tho afTatrs of n friendly country Provision of the mil. Tho bill provides for tho act to take ef feet on tho first day of noxt July, nnd for the appointment of tho dairy and food com missioner within sixty days of that date It authorizes tho appointment of twenty- five Inspectors, a chief chemist, flvo as sletant chemists and othor employes, with nnd frankly said so, declaring that Great a head mco ,n ,ho tlty of Washington Britain would not bo a party to any such steps, especially In view of the late presi dent McKlnlcy's attltudo toward the ante bellum effortB of European powers to avert war. , Snpimned It Wna Dropped. The Forelgu offico beard nothing more on this subjoct, the matter of collective note apparently being dropped. itcgaraing tne mucn disputed point as 'what powers were previously prepared to sign this note, had Great Britain acqui esced thereto, tho following statement from a high official of tho Foreign office, through whoso bands all secret dispatches passed, had best bo given In his own language. This official said: Wo havo no documentnrv rvMnr tn prove thnt any power other than the one wmcn iormnuy anproacnea us was con cerned In this, effort to send a collcctlvo note to tho United States, the purport of which, however pollto the wording, must iiuiuraiiy nnvo neen tnat or n threat. wo nna at . me time, nowevor. every reason to believe that this nower wns merely put forwnrd as a sort of bluffer in oruer to xuunu us, nnn tnat rnnc.

We have never had reason to chancre that licllnf. whlrh. in tho ease of France, amounts to moral cer tainly. Norman In (trntlfled. Opinion In the foreign office Is somewhat divided dh to the advisability of today's announcement In tho House of Commons, several high officials of thlR office believing u win oniy tend to strain tne relations between Great Britain and continental powers. Mr. Normatl said to a representative of tho AFsoclnted Press: I am delighted to get such an unexpect edly frank and Important answer. My question wns down for the opening day of the session, but tho government asked me to postpone it until today. Beyond what Lord Cranborne snld. I know little, but that I think sufficient, for It shows the excellent feeling of the Brit ish government In Its relations with tho T'nlted Stntcs. which I bellevo the moil important relations we nave.

The opening of the twentieth annual meeting of tho Nebraska Improved Live biock itreeaers- association win convene tomorrow evening, In the new chapel oT the University of Nebraska at Lincoln. It 1 but fair to say that this meeting will be of wide public Interest to tho formost stock- thorlty to compel pupils to recite literary selections In tho public schools?" This question has been submitted to Su perintendent Fowler by Harry Wilson of Doniphan, who says that a H-year-old boy has been expelled from school tn that place because of bis refusal to finish speaking piece, which he had about holt com pleted. On the subject Mr. Fowler says: The supreme court has decided that a school board has power to adopt and en force reasonable rules and-to prescribe the course of study and text-books for the use of tho schools. The parent or guar dian, however, has a right to mako a rea sonable selection from tho prescribed courses of study for his child to pursue and this selection must be respected by the trustees, as the right of tbo parent lu this regard Is superior to that of the trus- ees and tho teacher. A rule which re quires pupils to take In recitations seems to mo a reasonable one and could be en forced by tho board, unless tho parent or guardian could show that taking part In such exercises was a detriment to the child. To be sure, a reasonablo rule moy be made very unreasonable by the manner tn which it Is enforced. 'If the boy under the rule In question did his best In tho preparation for his declamation nnd then failed when he came before the school because of that embar rassment which has been tho terror of moro than ono school boy, he should not havo been expelled nor even chastised, but encouraged and entreated In tho proper spirit until ho could command sufficient resolution to try again. But If ho failed through lack of preparation and duo effort on his part and refused to mako a second attempt becausa of sheer stubbornness, he deserved expulsion." State Aicnlnst Union Pacific, Doputy Attorney General Norrts Brown Is preparing a brief to bo submitted to the supreme court In tho enso of the State against tho Union Pacific railroad. This action was begun to collect penalties for violation of the maximum freight law and Is being contested on Its own merits. Sim liar proceedings were begun against other railroads, but In each caso the defendant appeared In court' and Insisted that the stato was estopped by an Injunction granted several years ago and which has nover been vacated. In tho federal court last year tho railroads which raised this objection wero given a favorable decision nnd tho attorney general appealed to the United Stntcs supreme court. Tho Union Pacific railroad did not tako advant,ago of tho opportunity given by tho existence of tho restraining order, but Is fighting in tho state court. The suit will bo assigned for hearing beforo tho supreme court within tho next few weeks. City Father of Lead. The mayor and city council of Lead, S.

Ind., Jan. 20. Nearly 1,000 members of the United Mine Workers America havo gathered hero for tho thirteenth annual convention, which began at 10 o'clock this forenoon In Tomllnson hnll. It Is confidently expected by Presi dent Mitchell, Secretary Wilson and other officers that It will bo tho largest conven tion ever held by union laborers. Dele gates aro present representing every bitu minous and anthracite coal field In the United States. Ben Tltlett, tho famous British labor leader, who Is In this coun try studying labor conditions, arrived Inst night to be the guest of President Mitchell nnd tho miners until Wednesday or Thuisday. His address will bo ono ot the featuns of the convention. Tbo convention will continue until January 30, when tho Joint conference with the operators of Ohio, Pennsylvania, Illinois and Indiana will begin. This contcrcnco will probably last for ten days. It Is tho understanding that tho dele gates are preparing to ask for an advance that will bo equivalent to an all-round In crease ot at least 10 'per cent. Along with this report, however, Is another to tho effect that many of tho operators have determined to tnko a stand for a reduction of 10 per cent on the ground that they havo had an unprofitable year and that tho prospects for tho coming year aro not bright enough to warrant even n continua tion of tho present scale. It Is not believed, though, that there will be a lockout, as tho miners and operators ot tho four states that sign tbo competitive scnlo have been able to reach an agreement during tho last year without much troublo. Tho Central Labor union has mado preparations to entertain the miners with a banquot In Tomlinsort hall the night ot January 30. Tho convention was called to order today by President Mitchell, and after the dele gates wero seated tho report ot the cre dcntlals committee was called for. President Mitchell' Itrnort. President Mitchell's report covered six' teen printed pages. Ho deplored tho fact that many local unions aro withholding a portion ot the per capita tax, and Indicates that 60,000 miners are paying dues to tho local unions from whom tho national a3 soclatlon gets no benefits. He urges vlg orous action. President Mitchell reviews the strikes of the year In tho southwest, In Hopkins county, Kentucky, tho Dearmltt strike, tho Thatcher and Matowan strikes and of tho Kentucky strike says: Tho situation In Kentucky deserves nnd should receive your careful consideration. I'rovision spouki ue made to rontlnuo tnls contest until the mlno owners agree to mtot nnd treat with their former employes: It should bo continued until tho onerators concede the sumo wages and conditions of employment np nave oeen willingly con ceded by tho mine owners who sell their coal In tnn mime markets and whoso nat ural advantages are no greoter than those enjoyea Dy tne operators ot llopKlns county. Of the West Virginia situation ho says An csDeclnl effort has been made durlnc the year 1901 to organize tho miners of West Virginia and while wo have not met with the success our efforts warranted yet I am pleased to report tho organization of forty-five new local unions In district 17 and the prospect of a rapid Increase In membership during the coming year. The nisi Virginia, or, properly speaiting, dis trict 17. is now moro thoroiiKhly organized than nt any other time In Its history; there is a total oi cigiuy loeni unions in tnn district, with a membership of npproxl mately 5,000. Fund to Fight Opcrntnr. The antagonism to our organization on tho pnrt of operntors of West Virginia has been more nronounced than ever before: active participation in mo organization a any West Virginia miner Is Invariably fol lowcu oy dismissal rrom omniovment. in order to protect ourselves and our mem- ners wno nnvo neen victimized we nave found It nccenoary to spemt considerable money, l snouiu recommend tnat tins con ventlon make nrovlslon to sunnlv n reoul site fund to properly mulntnln thoie who may no uiscnargeu ior activity in tno union in tno virginioH The time has como In tho life of our or ganization when, In my Judgment, tho se lection of tho national officers should bo mado by direct voto of tho members of tho local unions. JVIth tho exception of a slump In prices during March and May of last year and a rapid lncrensc du.lns the month of De cember coal prices have been steady nnd, upon tho whole, considered good. I bellevo It Is safe to soy that never before In the history of tho trado have prices been more stable, with less causo for complaint by reason of keen competition. Machine Mining Scale, In tho formation of our next national agreement It Is Imperative that the ma chine mining scale In the states of Indiana, Ohio nnd Pennsylvania bo revised. Tho buslH of machine mining In the districts above enumerated Is not only unfair, but Is also fundamentally wrong. In 1891 tho maclilno mines of tno entire country nroduced C.211.732 tons: In 1S96. 16.- 424,932 tons; in 1897. 22,619,220 tons; in 1898, 32,413,144 tons; In 1S99, 43,863,933 tons; In 1900, 62,790,623 tons. During tho same period the numnor or mining macnines nas increased from 545 In 1891 to 3,907 In 1900. President Mitchell askB tho convention to empower the executive board to contribute to tbo McKlnley monument fund and asks for resolutions "against government by In junction." Ho further recommends that aid be given the American Federation of Labor In Its efforts to secure a law limiting the power offcdcral Judges. Secretary-Treasurer' Iloport. The report of W. B. Wilson, secretary treasurer, showed a decrease ot tbo tunds ot (30,750, notwithstanding tho Increaao from tho per capita tax caused by assist ance paid to strikers and small returns from strike assessments. He says tho mem bership has Increased 62,098 and outside of strikers now numbers 232,329. Tho report of Vice President Lewis, who is ono of tbo national organizers, urged a more definite understanding In national conventions as to .tbo handling of national questions. Following the reading ot these reports Mayor Bookwalter welcomed tho delegates to tho city and Ben Tlllctt, the leader ot England's dockworkers, was Introduced and addressed the convention.
