;from 1 to 4 p. m. September 30. He will
jtben go to fit. Louis, accompanied by Gov
ernor Cummins. Tbe brevity of his stay In
'Dea Molnea will necessitate a change In the
lan (or the reception, and It la probable
Yther will be nothing mora than a public
jpeettog where the prealdent can apeak, and
no general reception or formal dinner In his
.honor. Governor Cummins goea at that time
,to the national meeting of republican clubs
In St. Louis.

Tha coroner'! Jury which haa been in
vestigating the fatalities in the wreck at
Rhodes a few days ago has returned a ver
'diet blaming no one. Tha accident la found
to have been due to a mlaunderstandlng
between two conductora and not the fault or
! carelessness of anyone. The verdict fol
lows: "Thd said Jurors upon thslr oaths
'do aay that the said Dana Marckrea, en
gineer of freight No. 82, came to h'.a death
by accident on the th day of August, isoz,
near Rhodes, by reason of a collision be

James Walker, the negro under arrest in
connection with the Flnkelsteln murder,
aea arraigned In Justice court today and
ha immediately too. .u Cf
another court, which will cauae aome de

to have Levlch tried first and la working
to that end. If tha change of venue had
cot been taken today the atata would have
asked for a continuance ' In the Walker
. case. Tha Impression prevaila that the
police have no case against Walker and if
he is tried flrat he will be acquitted, which
will necessitate a discharge of Levlch. Good
attorneys have been employed to look after
tha case for Walker, a meeting of colored
people guaranteeing that ha ahould have

of Labor and on tbe regulation of "reg
ulars" and "substitutes" and other prac
tices In composing rooms.
There waa a close contest between Wash

thought that more could be done tor fa
vorable legislation by meeting at the -national
capital than at any other place.
Prealdent Lynch announced that night
aeaalona would be held hereafter la order
to complete the business of the convention
this week.
The fight between tha American Federa
tion of Labor and tha American union waa
brought before the convention today by a
letter to Prealdent Lynch from H. L.
Sholdlca of tha Laundry Workers' union at
Denver.
Sholdlca wanted the prlntera to reetrict
their membership strictly to printers and
not include prlntera who are also members
of tbe machinists' union or other unions.

can Federation of Labor.
A resolution waa adopted thanking the
Detroit Board of Education for adopting
union school books. A proposition waa
discussed at length that the practice by

Relative to Strlkea.
A proposition which waa made a law pro
vides that a strike or lockout may be de
clared oft by a majority vote of the union
involved, while a three-fourths vote is neo
easary to declare a strike or lockout.
After long discussion no change waa
mad in the law for foremen to observe
priority in giving out positions. Tha mat
ter waa left to local unlona tor enforcement.
When it came to voting for tbe next meet
log place Salt Lake City was withdrawn
and the ballot resulted in tha aelection of
Washington, D. C.
At ihS Sft;rS'w" aeaalnn the committee

A long discussion followed the proposi
tion of tha Chicago delegates for rein

Jurisdiction and it waa held that the Chi
cago Typographical union waa expelled for

resolution presented through Delerate Mad
dlgaa for the Chicago union waa adopted al
most unanimously, as follows:
Resolved, by the International Typo
graphical union. That Its officers are in
structed to withhold further payments of

clusively determined whether the Amer
ican Federation of Labor has the author
ity and disposition to compel obedience to
Its laws snd mandates on the part of He
local chsrtered bodies and to compel Just
and fair treatment of the local represents
tives of an International body, a compon
ent part of the American Federation of
Labor, from acknowledged injustice and
Illegal acta on the part of the chartered

Th several thousand Omaha and South

from the rata while cars crawled out at
Irregular three minute interval for home,
waa nevertheless in tbe main a good na

to b left behind waited tor th next with
admirable self control. The Council Bluffs
Motor company had every car at work and
a service of about three minute waa ob
tained. But to bring back a crowO which
bad been crowding the Bluffs car earlier
la th evencg, beginning aa early h-f "
'clock and not diminishing until afi.-f
together with the who went down c! t-i
tbe dsy, required much time and when
taken in conjunction with the Iowa people.
waa almost too much for the service. At
1:20 a. m. there remained at Manawa a
crowd which packed the ancloaed spec of
th merry-go-round platform and extended
back up the road. The conductor of the
cars most of them thought that the last of
tb peopl would b back aerosa th river

Th atreet ears In Omaha atopped run
