INDIANAPOLIS. March National offi
cers of the United Mine Workers of Amcr
lea say today that from reports they have
received from locnls of the nine- states
which yesterday voted on tho subject of
accepting or rejecting "the offer of the op
erators, the two years' scale Is accepted
and there will be no strike. Returns from
central Pennsylvania show three to one
against a" strike. Eighteen locals in In
diana show a majority of $no against a
strike. In a few places In Indiana, where
the foreign element prevails, there, Is a
small majority in favor of a strike. The
ballots are arriving In every mall and will
be opened tomorrow, when the tellers will
begin the count. The result will be made
known as soon as the count Is completed.
Iowa and Illinois t'ncertoln.
President Mitchell today said he was
pleased with the reports that have come
In. He expressed confidence that the
proposition of the operators would be ao-
cep:ea. He said that In case It wore
accepted, a meeting of the Joint scale com
mittee would probably be called for Mon
day of next week to sign the contract for
the central competitive field. When the
committee meets It Is understood that It
will appoint a time for the next conference
between the operators of. the Central
competitive field and the mine workers, and
In this manner restore the Interstate
agreement system to its former t. -sit I on
The greatest opposition to an scceptance
of the operators proposition was expected
from Illinois and Iowa, representing about
66,000 of the total of 190,000 votes. A tele
gram from Danville, 111., stated that the
vo,e ,n tha' district had resulted in a total
of 1.476 for
a strike and 873 against a
strike.
The first tallct was received by Secretary
Wilson from Snyre, O., and was in the
form of a telegram stating how the vote
there had resulted and explaining that the
mall had not been used because the town
was quarantined from smallpox. Accord-
ng to leports from Pittsburg, Pa., It Is
estimated that the miners of District No. 6
hsve voted against a strike by a great ma
jority. Reports from Michigan state that
the vote there has been In favor of an ac
ceptance, of the operators' proposition. It
S reported that SO tier rent nf h R iw
rglners about Wheeling, W. Va., have voted
against a strike and reports announce that
the miners in the Massillon, Coshocton and
Athens fields of Ohio have shown a hsavy
majority against a strike.
Late Retnrns Are Favorable.
At the national headquarters of the
United Mine Workers of America late to
day estimates on the vote of the miners
had been computed by the national officers.
They are positive the scale had been ac
cepted and there will be no strike.
Of the 190,000 miners in the states voting
It Is estimated 130,000 to 136,000 voted, and
of these $8,600 voted for the scale and
48,600 voted against It and In favor of a
strike.
Maryland did not vote! not being sure it
was entitled to vote. West Virginia re
ports are meagre and no estimate is made.
Indiana cast 10,000 votes, a majority of -2
to 1 for the scale. Illinois cast 80,000 votes,
with a majority of 2 to S against the scale
and In favor of a strike. Pennsylvania
cast 60,000 votes, with a majority of 1 to 1
for the scale.' Kentucky had a small. vote,
with a majority of 8 to 1 for the scale.
Iowa cast 10,000 votes, with a majority for
strike. Michigan cast a smalt vote for
the scale. Ohio cast 35,000 votes, with 4
to 1 for the scale.
New York Faces Trouble.
NEW YORK, March 18. Labor troubles,
as a result of which many thousands will
be Idle, again threaten the Industrial world
and the situation is expected to become
as serldus as the memorable troubles of a
year ago. In the building trades in this
city it is estimated that 30,000 men ars now
out of work and that the number will be
Increased almost dally. In addition, the
printing trades are threatened by the lltho
graphera, 10,000 of whom are expected to be
locked out throughout the country before
nightfall. The dissension In both these
trades Is caused over the arbitration agree
ment with mployers and Involves the ab
solute recognition of the unions, the eight
hour day and the "tpen shop."
The building strike vas inaugurated by
me masons laDorers, who claim It was
caused by their employers posting a notice
cutting down overtime oharges. The plan
of the employers Is to liiugurate an "open
whop" policy.
The laborers were quickly supported by
the bricklayers and the allied trades. The
housesmlths were followed by riggers
steamfltters, boiler im.kers and Inside iron
workers, as well as a number of electrical
workers.
One of the members of the Lithographers'
association said that the agreement has
been submitted to every man In every
shop !q the city. He said:
The men will be given In each rase to
the end of the week. I wish to Insist that
there is no lockout. The shops will not
close. We wish the men to occupy the
Same places they have been occupying, and
to this end their places will be kept open
iur mern. f minim iu nnve questions at
Issue submitted to a general arbitration
plan. We want union men in shnna that
areunlon, with no lowering of the wages
pr hours in force.
BUFFALO, N. T.. March 1 Employes
In the seven large lithographing establish
menta in this city went to work today after
adopting a resolution net to sign the agree
ment submitted to them by the National
Association of Lithographers, the em
ployers. Each amployer wilt now proceed
to deal with the men Individually. To
each man will be presented a copy of the
arbitration agreement, and if the employ
does not sign It he will be notified that his
services will no longer be required after
this week Is ended. After this week it Is
expected ths loc'tout will be complete.
Threaten Troablo at Cincinnati.
CINCINNATI, March K. All lithograph
workmen of Cincinnati, Newport and th
immediate vicinity will be locked out," said
W. B. Donaldson, president of the local
Association of Lithographers; unless by
sunset today they accept the proposition
made by the employers' association fur ar
titration."
The workmen hers some time ago voted
to accept the arbitration proposition subject
to a referendum vote. This having gone
against them, they are likely to be locked
out for ths refusal of others.

county," he began, "but I think more of
the republican party than I do of any man
In It. If the state convention adopts the
recommendation of th committee, we are
likely to see a populist In the senate and
I have some figures to submit that doubt
less many of you have never looked up."
Then the convention went wild, the dele
gates wanted to hear no figures and that
only nerved Roberts up to his thsk.
C. O. Whedon demanded that Roberts be
heaid. Roberta then took the platform,
but evsn then the convention refused him
a voice.
J. F. C. McKesson demanded for every
man th right to talk and It was to the
Interest of the party that the convention
listen, he said. It was finally agreed to
let Roberts talk five minutes. He said:
Presents Seme Flaores.
"I want to call your attention to the
legislative returns. They are different from
the presidential and others. In 1899 we had
a senator to elect. The house was 61 re
publlren and 48 fusion. The senate was a
republican and 13 fusion. Five representa
tive districts were carried by less than ten,
vetes. These were: First, 2 majority;
Fourteenth, t majority; Thirty-first. 7 ma
jority; Forty-second, 9 majority. Had any
two of these gone fusion It would have
changed the house and a sufficient number
could have unseatsd to overbalance the
senate Three hundred and two votee
would have changed the result on Joint bal
lot. In 1901, with two senators to elect,
ninety votes In ths various districts would
have changed, the house snd 477 votes
changed In he various districts would
have changed the result on Joint ballot
without unseating any one.
"In 1908, when .he republicans had an
unprecedented majority, republican mem
bers were elected In Sanders, Butler and
Dawson 6i unties where there was no fu
sion, and a solid delegation came down
from Douglas because of the Mercer fight.
Three thousand votes scattered In districts
that have gone fusion would have changed
the cc.iplexion of that legislature."
Mr. Roberts said It was the duty of the
party to seriously consider the proposi
tion before taking action, but his Ave
minutes were up and the convention de
manded that he stop, and he did after a
plrlted debate, in which no one answered
his query: "Why are you sfrald to dis
cuss the matter If It is a good mover'

A resolution introduced by Paul Clark
waa adopted out of respect to Senator

Tells of Allea-ed Ktforts Made to .
Bribe Member ( tho
Honse.
KANBAB CITY. March 16.-Jesse L. Jew
ell, state senator from Kansas City, was
brought to trial In the criminal court here
today upon a charge of soliciting a bribe.
The charge Is that Senator Jewell went to
J. W. Hess, manager of a baking powder
company, and offered for 19,000 to Influence
legislation In the state legislature that
would be beneficial to the company. E. C.
Crow, attorney general of the stale, and
his assistant, Samuel B. Jeffries, will per
sonally conduct the case for the state.
This Is another of the many prosecutions
growing out of alleged boodllng In connec
tion with baking powdcf legislation, others
of which have been tried or are pending at
Jefferson City.
The first move made by the defendant s
lawyers was to quash the Information,
which Judge Wafford overruled after a
brief argument. A Jury was secured
quickly and the taking of testimony be
gun. John W. Hess, the local representa
tive of a Chicago baking powder company,
testified that he had met Senator Jewell
In Kansas City at a saloon in January,
1903, by appointment. In company with
Elmer Phlppa, a Kansas City grocer. Hess
said that they urged Jewell to vote for the
repeal of the bill then pending in the
legislature.
"Acting under instructions from my
house at Chicago," said Mr. Hess, "I was
bringing all the treasure to bear that I
could to secure the repeal of the law
which prevented ua from putting our
baking powder on the market here."
"If I do," Jewell had said, "I shall have
to go up against the JTarrls push, and I
have practically pledged myself to vote
with them." Then, In reply to questions,
Mr. Hess told the following story: i
Mr. Jewell told ma that If he voted
against the Karris push he might as well
walk out. He said he knew how much
money went down there (to Jefferson City)
from the. Baking Powder trust. It was a
cold-blooded proposition; he knew it would
take three votes to repeal the bill. 1 left
and Sent a telegram to Jacques, his man
ager, telling him the situation. I went
back to th saloon and met Jewell and he
told me It would take 89,000 to get his vote
and two other and for that money he
would get the three votes, but, he said, ha
would have to. leave Jefferson City as soon
as he had voted, because the Karris crowd
would run him out. I sent a teleeram at
his suggestion to Jacques, notifying him
thnt 19.000 would secure the renent the
bill.
By appointment I met Senator Jewell next
morning to tell him the result of my tele-
fram to the house. I told him then that
he house would not take It up but told
him .to drop tt. Jewell urged me to get the
house to pay the 89.000 and he said If I got
the 89,000 I was to go to Jefferson City and
register at the Monroe house aa MoCrary
and I would be assigned to a room and he
would look over the register and see my
name there and he would come to my room
and I could pay him the money. H di
rected me to have nine 81,000 bills to pay
him.
The original telegrams sent by Hen to
his house in Chicago were offered In evi
dence. Senator Jewell's lawyers made vig
orous objection to their Introduction at all.
Judge Wofford, however, ruled that It was
admissible. The first telegram sent by Hess
read :
"KANSAS CITY, Jan. 81, JBOS.-C. E.

Mr. J. and his friends. ' Answer me at once,

Mr. Hess testified that he told Jewell the
contents of his telegrsm and the answer
he received to It, and that then, In response
to the suggestion from Jewell, he sent the
following telegram: ' ' '
"C. E. Jacques, 107 Maple Avenue, Oak
Park," 111: My friend wants tne to meet
Layton In Jefferson myself and arrange, if
needed. Let me kv lw; must leave Monday
noon. Can win sure for us If arrangements
are O. K. (Sighed) JOHN."
In reply to this Mr. Jacques wired him
to drop the matter, and that was the end
of It.
At the conclusion of the state's case the
defense filed a demurrer based on the fol
lowing contentions:
First, that of Insufficient evidence; sec
ond, that the statute of limitations runs
against the Information because the' de
fense claims the filing of the Information
did not occur within one year after the
alleged commission of the misdemeanor
or crime as the statute requires, and third,
that the Information Is an absolute nullity
because the prosecutor, th defense asserts,
failed to accompany the document with the
proper affidavit and verification.
The court suspended the taking of testi
mony and heard argument on the demur
rer. Decision on the demurrer will
rendered tomorrow.
