Columbus, O., Feb. 10. The convention
ol United Mine Workers of America, which
convened to-day, is a representative body
of men and indicate an intelligence not
often seen in similar bodies. They are not
only leaders, but smart debaters on every
point which comes up, and they watch the
proceedings with a care and intense interest
which indicates good results.
The forenoon was devoted to the appoint
ment of Committees on Credentials and
Order of Business, and the remainder of the
time given to the addresses of Samuel
Gompers, of the American Federation of
Labor; Hugh Cavan.iugh, General "Worthy
Foreman of the Knights of Labor; John

ner. Mr. Gompers said among other things
that in every city which he visited he would
urge the appointment of committees to raise
funds for the assistance of tbe miners in the
work which they will inaugurate Mayl
lor an eight-hour work day.
A Difficulty Smoothed Over.
At tbe opening of the afternoon session
the Committee on Credentials was not ready
to report. They had considerable trouble in
arriving at a conclusion in the cafe of Joseph
"Walsh, who came as a delegate from an
open union in the coke regions of Pennsyl
vania, which bad refused to pay tbe district
tax. Walsh was, however, admitted in tbe
interest of harmony, and to keep down the old
feelings wbicb formerly existed between tbo
K. of L. and tbe Miners' Union.
Tbe report of tbe committee was soon made
and adopted, with tbe exceptions of where
there were contests, and these were held in re
serve. Tbe District of Pennsylvania bad 19
delegates and was entitled to but 14 votes. It
was concluded to give as many of tbe delegates
as possible seats. Only 11 of tbn delegates,
however, were allowed io have a vote. Charles
McDonald, a delegate from local union in Dis
trict No. 5. created considerable of a
fer.sation by bopping about on the
floor and demanding a vo:e, which bo
bad been denied on tbe ground that bis
local had not paid the per capita tax. He paid
the amount, and as civen full powers with the
contention. It was afterward decided to refer
tbe case of McDonald tn the committee for
investigation, and be becamo roaring mad and
left tbe nail. Edward McKav, fiom Districts,
was also given a vote, which left only 3 ot the
19 hut who were given tbe right to vote in tbe
convection.
Delegates to the Convention.
The number of delegates admitted to tbe
convention was 170, with a total of 606 votes;
Ohio, 60 delegates with 121 votes; 1'ennsylvania,
9 delegates with US votes; Indiana, 14 dele
gates with 16 votes; West Virginia, 11 delegates
with 13 votes; Illinois, 9 delegates with 2S votes.

rangement that tbe reduction of time in hours
of labor, scale or price- and finances will be

.-secretary Watchom on the manner in wbicb
tbey bad bandied the interests of tbe miners.
President Itae's Address.
The address of President Jobn B. Rae was
received with tbe grcaiest satisfaction aad
demonstrations of approval. Ho reviewed tbe
work of tbe year, and said it had been the most
eventful in their hUtorv. Thev had only begnn
building what be believed wou'd be the great
est wage-workers organization in America.
He thonght their constitution should be tam
pered with as little as possible, as they have
too many laws. He made a strong argument
in favor of an enlarged defense fund. This
sbonldbe one general fund and not divided.
Tbe speaker thought a national convention
should not attempt to f ormulate a scale for tbe
several districts. These things should be local
in character. He strongly favors weighing coal
before screening, and gave reasons, saving they
should have a tixed price for all coal mined,
and that the prices agreed upon should con
template cash prices only. The President was
eniuh&tic on tbe eigbt-hour work da v. and urged
that all should get ready for the'lstot May.
Condition of the Tlnances.
Secretary Watchorn made a detailed report
of the finances. He said tbey were in a bealtby
condition: that in six months' time they had re
ceived over 54.000 and paid out to needy
brothers over SM.CO0. He explained the objec
tions which bad been raised to the defense fund
and said they could not fight their battles with
wind.
In giving tbe resume of the several funds he
said the fight at Irwin Station bad cost them
So.000; Dibtnct3, PennsIvania.t3,OO0; Alabama
miners, 1,000; Cana, 111., 81,000, and other
strikes less amounts. There was received on

Baltimore, Feb. 10. The Baltimore
Sun of "Wednesday will publish the follow
ing special dispatch from its Washington
correspondent:
A recent Uew York dispatch which has
been widely circulated, sets forth at some
length that Governor Hill's conclusion to
come to the Senate was because of a letter
written by Henry Watterson at the request
of a Democratic Senatorial caucus. The
contents of the letter are assumed to be
given:
Courier Journal office. J
LotnsviLLK, Ky., November 21, 1690. 5
Mr Dear Sir 1 take leave to address you
this letter as one of the some millions of Demo
crats who have never sought or beld office, and
who could not be indnced to do so; bnt who are
deeply concerned in the party welfare, and wbo
believe you to hold the key to it. Outside of
the State of New York there is a welt-nlch
unanimous demand among tbe rank and file ot
Democrats for the nomination of Mr. Cleve
land. This is too strong for the party leaders
and managers to resist. I think I have
some influence in Kentucky. Bnt on
that point I sbould us ovcrwnelmed in a
State convention. It you should come
tn a national" convention with a New
York delegation solid against it you would be
overwhelmed. You are powerless to prevent
it. But you can defeat tbe election of tbe
ticket.
There (are Democrats in every part of the
Union who believe that you did this In 1SSS. I
know that to be false. I know exacily what hap
pened, and I have steadily defended you in pub
lic and in private. But it will cling to you as long
as you live even as the bargain, intrlguo
and corruption story clnng to Clay and will
meet you in every Rational Convention if it be
not dissipated by some act on your part great
enough to blot it out. In default of this, if
you have any hope of tbe Presidency it will de
feat that.
Mr judgment is clear that if you could re
concile it with your judgment and feeling to
make peace with Mr. Cleveland, and to -take a
delegation to tbe National Convention in 1S92 to
put him in nomination, you will save tbe
party. and place, yourself upon an
elevation you can never attain if you fail to do
it, jou wonld be received by tbe country witb
enthusiasm and be accepted at once as a War
wick and I do not see how you could be kept
out of succession. On the other hand
even if you succeeded in defeating the
nomination of Mr. Cleveland you will stand
upon sinister and dangerous ground with a
stormy fnture before you. These are words
and I have no relations with you which give
richt to offer you counsels. Tbey may be
disagreeable words, and I have no de
sire to obtrnde upon yonr privacy. But
they are true words and I claim tbe
right of a Democrat wbo has some knowledge
of tbe country at large and has given some
proof of intelligent devotion to the party in
terests to Ignore ceremony and to send them to
you.
In conclusion let me say that I shall, in any
event, be glad to know you better, and that,
meanwhile, I am most sincerely your friend,
Henry Watterson.

The Best for the Children
While Minnesota is one of the most
healthy States iu the Union, it is one of the
worst for colds, owing to the severe winters.
Many 'of the druggists there make it a rule
to give their customers jusc what they call
for; but when they come back and say it
doue no good, they almost invariably rec
ommend Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, as
will be seen by tbe following from Messrs.
Wells & Schroeder, of Sanborn, Minn.:
"We have recommended Chamberlain's
Cough Bemedy after other leading cough
preparations had failed to do any good, and
always with the best results. We can always
rely upon that remedy, ss it is sure to effect
a cure. It has no equal for children; es
pecially in cases of croup or whooping
cough." 50-ceut bottles ior sale by drug

THE REVENUE BILL
Discussed fieforo tbe House Ways
and Means Committee;
CORPORATION AND KEALTI TAX.
Mr. Wherry Hakes Several Strong Points
for the Measare.
LOCAL BEYEKOEFKOMIiIQCOK LICENSES
Crnoii A statp corrispoxdext.
Harbisbuko, Feb. 10. Hon. Francis
Jordan argued before tbe Ways and Means
Committee oT the House to-night with
regard to the revenue bill to tax corpora
tions for local purposes, that it was unjust
to tax corporations more than they are at
present taxed. He made the point that
corporations are at least taxed on their full
value, while real estate is taxed on an
undervaluation.
This Mr. Wherry denied, saying the
revenue commission had information that
real estate in a large number of cases is
assessed in excess of its cash value. He
could cite many instances of this in his own
county, Cumberland. This seemed to
surprise Mr. Jordan, and he was further
astonished by the statement of Mr. Wherry
that the mortgages on land on which taxes
arl paid, exceed in value the railroad in
debtedness on which taxes are paid as six to
one.
Mr. Wherry's statement was generally
understood to be that tbe real estate mort
gages on which taxes are paid exceeded the
total bonded indebtedness of the railroads
as six to one, but such was not his meaning.
Representatives of the Reading and Lehigh
Valley railroads were present at the meet
ing and will be given a hearing Thursday.
The liquor sub-Committee of the Ways
and Means Committee aud the Appropria
tions Committee tried to meet to-night, but
failed because of a desire of tbe members to
hear what was said on the revenue bill.

Tbe bill providing for the assessment of taxes
fc improvements already made was proposed
to bs amended by McCreary, of Erie, so as not

AGAINST CHEAP LAB0B,
Bill to Impose a Poor Tax of 83 a Tear Upon
Unnaturalized Fersqns.
rrnoM a 6ta-tj- comutsroxDExr.i
Harbisbuko, Feb. 10. The Senate Judi
ciary Committee made short work to-day ot tbe
bill to Impose a poor tax of S3 a year on un
naturalized persons by deciding to report it
favorably. Tbe bill is intended as a blow at
cheap Hungarian and Italian labor.
The Jndiciary Committee heard arguments
on tbe half holiday bill, and after Peter Boyd,
of Philadelphia, bad made a strong plea for
its favorable consideration it was voted
down, but the action was reconsiderod
to give others a chance to be beard.
One of tbe main objections to the
bill is the construction to which it is liable that
no judiciar actions can be had on tbe legal boll
days designated. The committee passed favor
ably on tbe bill to prevent car drivers from
being arrested for cruelty to animals until tbey
have reached tbe end of their route. This bill
is intended to prevent annoyance to passengers,
especially those destined for railroad stations.
Tbe Senate Corporation Committee decided
to report affirmatively tbe Thomas bill to com
pel telephone and telegraph wires to be placed
under ground in cities having over 300,000 in
habitants, with an amendment providing for
the punishment of managers of companies in
structing or requiring operators to use over
head wires by imprisonment not exceeding one
year and a fine not exceeding 51,006.
LIQU0B LICENSE FEES.
A Measure That Will Put About 8500,000 a
Tear Into tho City Treasuries.
rrnoM A ETAFr cokrespondext.
Habbisbcro, Feb. la The bill to give to
treasuries of cities, boroughs and townships
all tbe retail liquor license fees, which was
drafted in accordance with tbn recommenda
tions of Governors Beaver and Pattison, went
through tbe Senate to-day without encounter
ing mnch opposition. Tbis measure will re
duce tbe State revenues about $500,000 a year,
and augment the funds in tbe locM treasuries
to that extent.
Senator Cntchfield, of Somerset, and others
sought to have the bill amended by providing
that the license fees in boroughs and townships
be given to tbe counties, but tbe proposition
was overwhelmingly defeated. While tbe
Senate passed the bill by a vote of 35 to 7,
dangerous opposition is feared in the House,
because tbe counties are deprived under it of
participation in. the license fees. An amend
ment giving them the fees allotted to boroughs
and townships mar be taken as tbe wav out of
a threatened obstacle to tbe passage of the
measure, aoo senators wno voted against It
to-day are: Cntchfield, Somerset; Meek, Center;
Login, Crawford; Lloyd, (Jumberland; Woods,
Mifflin; Williamson, Huntingdon, and Dunlap,
Beaver.

The storm In tbe lake regions on Monday
traveled northeast to Nova Scotia, where it
was central yesterday. Light snow Jell in the
lake regions and Northern New York during
the early morning, witb rain in the East, and
on the New England coast. Northwest gales
were blowing throughout the day on the Mid
dle Atlantic and New England coast, witb veloc
ities of from 32 to 45 miles an honr. The cold
wave following the storm should reach this
section this morning, but will not last long and
will not be very severe. Tbe center of cold
yesterday was at St. Paul, 14 below zero, bnt
to the west of that point it was growing rapidly
warmer on account of a depression forming in
North Dakota. One day will probably end the
cold spell in this region.

GENERAL SPORTING KEWS OF THE DAY
The proposed local billiard tournament
for the State championship bas been brought
into national prominence by a magnificent
offer on tbe part of J, C. Stronp, proprietor
of Stroup's Band Box. Mr. S'.roup has de
cided to give to the winner of the tourna
ment a trophy emblematic of the champion
ship that far excels anything of the kind
ever offered in this country or any other for
that matter.
Tbe trophy to be given will be a billiard
table 5x10 inches. Tbe table will be solid
silver, and tbe legs will be oi solid gold.
The "sights" on the table will be made oi
chipped diamonds, and the lines on tbe
table representing the 14-inch balk line will be
of gold. The entire table will stand on an
ebony oedestal. Of course there will be a gold
cue and small ivory balls on the table.
Speaking of the gift yesterday, Mr. Meyers,
tbe agent of Brunswick & Balke, said: "There
never bas been snch a costly and magnificent
trophy offered to billiard players in the history
of the game. Why, it far outshines the trophy
emblematic of tbe national championship, and
undoubtedly tbe offer will draw national at
tention to Pittsburg. Nobody ever thought
that such a costly emblem wonld be presented,
and most assuredly the players will appreciate
it. It will attract players, even if there was no
money subscribed. Mr. Stroup's emblem will
place our tournament'in the front rank."
Mr. Durbin. of Fifth avenue. Is the designer
of tbe emblem, and it will bo manufactured by
Tiffany t Co., of New York. Tbe conditions
under which the winner can hold it have not
Set been definitely agreed upon. Mr. Stroup
as a desire to make It a challenge trophy
that is, the holder must be ready to
meet all comers until be bas won it
three times, when it will become his
own property. There is another plan, viz,
when the holder bas held it for two years it
shall become bis own property. A condition
under which the National billiard chamoion
sbip emblem is held is that a contest for it
must not be for less than S500 a side. Mr.
Stroup thinks this a little too steep for a State
championship contest and will probably reduce
that amount to J230 or $200, as far as contests
for his valuable gift are concerned. Its value
demands that the utmost care be taken In fix
ing the conditions under which it can be beld.
The local players who are entered for the
tournament are practicing bard every day.
Mr. Dadds is playing well, and Messrs. Walker
and Bnsbart are improving every day. That
the lonrnament will be one of great interest
and excitement there ts no doubt whatever.
SENDING OFF THE C0NTBACTS.
President O'Neill Sends Interesting Letters
to Fogarty and Fred Carroll.
President O'Neill and Manager Hanlon were
busy almost all day yesterday writing letters
and sending away contracts to the players. An
interestine letter was sent tn Fogarty, and after
he reads it be will no doubt sign tbe contract
accompanying the letter. Fogarty Is offered a
very good salary. A letter and contract were
also forwarded to Fred Carroll. Tbe letter to
Fred was characteristic of President O'Neill's
eloquence and generous sentiment. In it tho
local nrxirtint earnestly wished that the blg-
liejneu piayer would proflt greatly ly tbe
sacreu contract ne made on jnow x ear's Day,
that as a result be would be a star fielder in
Pittsburg's club next season.
Contracts were also forwarded to Beckley
and Staley. Tbey will also be tbe recipients of
letters fully explaining tbe salary question.
President O'Neill has left th-work of signing
Maul to Hanlon, as the latter has a little pri
vate arrangement with Albert.
Mr. O'Neill will leave for Chicano to-day.
During a conversation yesterday he expressed
himself to the affect that there is a very strong

going to find the money to put ono there. He
further said that some time ago everything was
cut and dried to place an Association team in
Milwaukee, but Mr. Prince, of Boston, upset
the deal.
Mr. O'Neill is more confident than ever ot hut
claim on Bierbauer. "Why." he said, "Mr.
Wagner has gone and signed Hoy. That means
that he knows we have a right to Bierbaner,
and under tbe same rule be has a right to sign
Hoy. We are all right. We can get a first-class
pitcher and we'll get him if we only are allowed
time."
JACK GLASSCOCK SIGHS.
He Agrees on Terms 'With the New York
Club Without Much Trouble.
New York, Feb. 10. JacfcGlasscock bas
signed as shortstop with the New York Base
ball Clnb. He arrived In tbe city from bis borne
tbis afternoon, and met Spaldinc, Day and Tal
cott by appointment. These gentlemen had a
long conference, and the end was that Glass
cock was signed.
Tbis puts an end to all the gossip about play
ers refusing to plav In tbe same club with bim.
It shows plainly that tbe players are willlnc to
accept anything, or else Messrs, Spaldinir, Day
and Talcott wonld not havo acted as they did.
Glasscock, of course, plays at a rednced salary,
and though the figures are not given out, it Is
said they are pretty fair ones.
HEEE0N HILL CLUB WINS.
That Popular Shooting Club Captures the
Handsome Trophy Presented.
The Herron Hill Gun Club has won tbe
trophy for the best team shooting among the
local clubs. Tbe trophy, which is a massive
silver pitcher, was, it will be remembered, pre
sented by tbe Bennett Bros. Yesterday's shoot
ing decided tbe matter and tbe Herron Hill
experts have won an excellent victory.
Tbo shooting yesterday was at Brnnot's
Island and was between tbe team of tbe Her
ron Hill and Nortbside clnbs, tbe Squirrel Hill
Clnb h.iving dropped ontsome time ago. Before
commencing yesterday the Herron Hill team
had won 5 shoots out of a total of 12 to be shot,
Nortbside Club 3 and 'the Squirrel Clnb L It
was understood, therefore, that if tbe first
named club won yesterday's sboot tbe pitcher
was tbeirs as the Northsiders conldn't win
even if tbey won tho next two. Yesterday's
score was: Herron Hill, 152; Northside. 142.
The higbest individual score was 33 made bv H.
J. Levis. The Painter brothers and the King
brothers each scored 3Z
The enp for tbe best individual score nas not
been won yet. The conditions for the prize
were tbe highest individual score for ten shoots.
So far Jim Crow is the only member of a team
wbo bas taken part in ten shoots, but his score
is a very low one. Tbe remaining two shoots
will likely take place to allow others to bave a
chance to win the cup. The highest individual
scores so far bave been made by Messrs. Levis
ana W. King.
TBOTJBLE ABOUT THE SLIDE.
The Toboggan Stockholders Kicking About
the Probable Sole of Their Property.
The toboggan slide and everything connected
with it in Recreation Park is on the list for the
Sheriff's sale on Friday. As a resnlt the stock
holders of the slide are declaring themselves
very strongly on the matter. One of the stock
holders said yesterday:
"It is certainly unjust that our property
sbould be scheduled for sale. We nave put
about $400 each into the affair, and the old Na
tional League club sbonld protect us. I don't
tbink that tbe Sheriffs representatives bave a
right to touch our property, but if they do we
will certainly call tbe baseball clnb people to
account. We can make tbem pay a certain sum
of money, probably 600, no matter how things
go. Tbey are responsible for half a note for
$1,200. We bave paid that money, and their
share of it is dne us."
