h'Ue Denver Convention Chooses the Prcs

Lender Gompers Hot ires lluppy

Ey the United Press. .
Denver, Col., Doc. 17. Tin? first mat
ter to come before the Federation of
Labor this morning was the selection
of the jilace for headquarters, the con
vention having decided to remove the
same from New York city. The cities
of Washington, Brooklyn, Detroit und
Indianapolis were placed In nomina
tion. Indianapolis was selected by a
majority vote.
The convention then proceeded to
the election of ollleers. The balloting
resulted In the defeat of President
Gompers and the election in his place
of John Mcllride, the president of the
VniteU Mine Workers; The vote was:
Gompers, 037; McHride, 1,102. Presi
dent Gompers moved that JfcP.rlde's
election be made unanimous, but, a
deli-Bate objecting, that vote failed.
Mr. Gompers wired his successful
tompetltor as follows: "John Mclirlde,
Columbus, O. Congratulations upon
J'our election to the presidency of the
federation. None will be more loyal
than I to aid In making your adminis
tration successful. Samuel Gompers."
Vice presidents were elected as fol
lows: First, P. J. McOuire, Philadel
phia; second, James Duncan, Balti
more; third, Roady Kenehan, Denver;
fourth, T. J. Klderkln, Chicago. For
secretary, A. MoGralth, of Boston.
John H. I.cnnan, of New York, was the
unanimous choice of the convention for
the office of treasurer.
Mr. Gompers. speaking of the election
of MeBride, said to the convention that
lie felt grea'tly relieved from a burden
of enormous responsibility. The posi
tion as president had made him prema
turely old. He had stood for principle
and had fought & hard fight. Standing
thus, he preferred to be moved down
anther than surrender to opposition,
lie regretted this official action and
could recall nothing in his past ad
ministration for correction. He prom
ised the same devotion to the cause of
labor in the future as in the past. If
defeat had come til him in the Chicago
convention 'he would have gone out
broken hearted: now he left It with a
reputation as clear as the noon day sun.
(Applause.) He proposed to support
MeBride and would defend any attempt
to drag him down from his high posi
tion by the enemies of the American
Federation of Labor. He thanked the
delegates for their loyalty to the federa
tion and panted from them with the
test of wishes for a united effort In fa
vor of the labor cause.
New York wis selected as the place
for the holding of the next convention
and then a recess was taken.
INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
The new Maxwell. No. 20, breaker p.t
Ashley will be opened to the public
this afternoon.
The rumored reduction In the Jersey
Central coal crews on Tresckow branch
has been enforced and three men In all
have been suspended Indefinitely.
, The new branch which Van W'Ickle
recently constructed from Tresckow to
his Coleralne colliery has been handed
over to the Jersey Central company to
keep In order.
A Wilkes-Barre dispatch says that on
Saturday next all the mines now in
operation in the Wyoming and Lacka
wanna regions will shut down work for
the balance of the year. The report Is
not credited in Scranton.
., A new tunnel to catch what Is sup
posed to be the Lykens Valley coal vein,
which was tapped in the No. 10 slope at
HJeaver Brook over a year ago, has been
etarted from the east No. 5 lift. It will
be completed In ten weeks.
The Delano shops are now working
the busiest In their history. There are
elxteen engines in the shops to be re
paired, besides a number In the round
Jiouse. The repair and frog shops are
(working sixteen hours a day.
All the mechanics employed at the
Coleralne colliery received notice on
Saturday to the effect that on and af
ter that date their wages would be re-
duced 25 cents a day. The reduction Is
eald to be due to the dullness of the
coal trade.
The National Drilling company, of
Scranton, on Saturday completed their
contract of sinking an artesian well for
the Diamond Water company, of Ilazle
ton. The well has reached a depth of
COO feet and flows sixty-five gallons of
Water per minute.
The return of W. K. Vanderbllt re-
news Interest in the Lackawanna. It Is
paid he Is not satisfied with President
Sloan's attitude toward the trade, being
so unreliable in the matter of restrlc
tlon as to constitute a disturbing factor.
He has Instructed his brokers to add to
his holdings of Lackawanna which he
thinks Is another way of improving his
Beading securities.
Calvin Pardee, the new Navigation
president, is a solid business man, a
careful financier and occupies a front
position in anthracite. He belongs to
a family of operators, his father's part
nershlp with J. J. Gllllngham Fell being
one of the oldest In the trade. While
Calvin was a member of the firm of A
Pardee & Co. his brother Frank suc
ceeded his father in this company
though he was superintendent of It for
over twenty-one years. For the past
twenty years he has been the lead
ing .member of the firms of Pardee,
Bros. & Co., Calvin Pardee & Co., and
Pardee, Sons & Co.
Statement of shipments of anthracite
coal for the month of November, com
piled by the Bureau of Anthracite Coal
Statistics from returns finished by mln-3
operators, not only shows a total out
put for the month of 4,493,281 tons,
which Is an Increase over the same
month last year of riS7,7i4 tons, but an
Increase in the stock of coal on hand
at tidewater shipping points of 142,641
tons, the total on Nov. SO being 874,900
tons, against 732,205 tons nt the end of
the preceding month. The heavy out
put last month was unquestionably due
to the desire of several of the compa
nies, including the Heading and the
,ehlgh Valley, to make as good show
ing In their annual reports as possible,
their respective fiscal years having ex
pired Nov. 30.

Where Science ends Common Sense
should rule. .Persons of sedentary
habits are liable to indigestion or dy
pepsia. These in turn, will bring on
nervous disorders, kidney complaints
constipation, etc. This is especially
the case with merchants, students and
scientists. They will give you the ex
act dimensions of Jupiter, the distance
from Saturn to the sun, to a foot, but
they cannot or will not tell themselves
what will cure this train of disorders.
For ailments resulting from seden
tary habits inactivity of the liver,
habitual constipation, etc., the cntin
medical fraternity of Europe and Amor
ica almost unanimously recommend the
genuine Carlsbad Sprudel Salt and the
Waters of Carlsbad.

to our patrons:
WaKhliurn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many pat
rons that thev will this year hold to their usual custom
of milling S I RICTLY OLD W1IKAT until the new crop
is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, and
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers arc
of the opinion that it is already cured, and in proper
condition for milling. Washburn-Oosby Co. will take
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully three
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling has
placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s Hour far above other
brands.
