The most gratifying feature of the situation In th anthracite district at present Is the dispo sition of the mine manager and their em ploye to settle dispute locally." President Lewis presented table taken front government reports showing that in thirteen years, from 1896 to 1903. there were I3.T1S Uvea sacrificed tn the coal mln, and that 6,772 men were Injured In the mine In IMS. He urged the creation of a bureau of mine and the establishment of measures tn lessen danger of mining. - On the wage . contract feature of the workers' activity, President Lewis spoke In favor of the Joint conference method of negotiating wage contracts, which he said has done much to establish peace In the mining Industry. On the termination of contracts, he said: "You are aware that our wage agreements " In nearly every bituminous dtHtiict of the cdSmtry terml ' nate on March II of this year. Iet me make It clear that there will be no reduc tion In wages, and as many Improvements In the agreement a can be secured." President Lewis . deprecated what hi termed a growing disposition to Ignore the authority of the International organisation and officers and recommended that the convention declare In exact terms the au thority of the International organization and ' It subordinate branches. He de nounced as the most dangerous enemy to the organisation those within It who seek to disrupt the institution.' V Report of Seeretarr. teptorlng the unprecedented Ions of life tn the mine of America In 1908 and 1909, Edwin Perry, secretai y-treasurer, declared .. In the convention today that "not until the " function of protecting life I placed Where it rightfully br-16hgs, namely' on the operator or mine owner, can we reasonably expect ' any material change. w , "We have every reason to believe that with adequate protection through, legis lative enactments, the danger to life would be minimised at least threefold. All the legislation unless accompanied by severe penalties would not bring about the desired results. Not only, should our law , pro vide every necessary safeguard, but what Is of Infinitely more Importance would be a liability law wherein the mine owners would be held financially responsible for Injuries and loss of life." Mr. Perry, outlined the formation of a permanent relief fund on the basis of the donation of one day's wages annually by each member of the miners' organization, to be augmented by an equivalent sum from the operator, to be used ' in cases of emergency In 'mine disaster. (Statistics of the financial condition of the organisation' were .rend by the secretary treasurer, showing that the paid-up mem bership for the current year Is slightly In excess of that of 1906, the previous banner year, and also calling attention to the large decrease In surplus funds, due to the continuance of a strike In district 3", Nova Scotia. The recapitulation of the financial report showed a balance on hand December 1, 1908. of $595,789. The Income through the year to December 1, 1909, was IK31.7S0. making a total of $1,427,470. The ex penditure were listed at $956,639, leaving a balanoe-of 1410.620. In conclusion, Mr. Perry said: "While much ha been said In the past on the subject of political action, and while I have nothing new to suggest, I want to emphasise the necessity on the part of our members for concerted political action, at all times." Safety Appliances Needed. ''There is but one excuse for the great laughter of human live In the coal mines 0 the country profits?" So declared E. 8. McCultough, vice president. In hi report presented to the convention of the organ isation tody. . "To provide," continued the report, "safety appliance for, the pro tection of those who provide the fuel supply of this ccuntry, and make profitable our present state of Industrial, commercial and social status, means the expenditure of money and less profits to those who own "the mints; and to the extent that health, life and limb can be protected and ore not.

In my -opinion, o long as the public can secure it fuel aupply; and profit I the chief aim of the action of the mine through the united Workers themselves. . "The first and principal great need of our union is tha organization of the non union mine workers of this country.

Other Cities Demand It. "Nebraska has 126,000 independent tele phones," added Mr. Woods," and Omaha is too Important a point on the Indlpendent map to Jet backslide.

The committee on reorganization which Is securing the. sanction of the bondholders consists of Frank H. Woods of Lincoln, Edson Rich, Frank B. Johnson and Lysle Abbott of Omaha and Fred W.

"Insurance and tele phone money has poured into New York until it is the financial center of the world. The west has plenty of money and it is now financing its .own Insurance companies and telephone companies. There are over 4,0M,000 telephones, In the. United States, representing an expenditure of over $400, 000,000. There are 10,000 independent tele phone companies. All are booming. The long distance business out of Lincoln in creased 230 per cant last year. In Nebraska there are 120,000 independent telephones.

The precipitate crumbling away In the price occurred within a period of fifteen minutes and Wall street had barely time to catch Its breath when the chairman the Stock exchange announced from the rostrum the failure of Lathrop, Hasklns & Co., and a tew minutes later of J. M. Flfke & Co. A dissolution of a pool which had suc cessfully manipulated the stock from about $20 to $91.50 and the calling of loans sa cured by the Hocking Coal Block by cer tain banks la given as the primary causa for the slump In Hocking. Standard shares in the general list were weak during the Hocking Coal crash, but there were ho signs oi panic. No early statement was had from either of the firms whose failure had been an nounced. It was said the failure of Flake & Co. was due in part to the Hocking Coal decline and the recent skyrocketing of Rock Island. An Investigation of the kiting of Hocking Coal stock Is Indicated by the governors of the Stock exchange. After the main crash In Hocking there was further liquidation la the company s securities, which went to 30, a new low point. More than 30,009 shares of the stock were sold. Over half the company's cap italisation was traded in during the de cline. Later the stock of the Hocking Coal compe.ny declined to $25 a share. Representative bankers expressed the be lief this afternoon that the banking sit uation waa perfectly sound and that no failure of banks or trust companies would result from the further decline of security prices.
