TWO OLD NEWSPAPERS.
Referee Van Worraer Possesses Sam
ples of Early Journalism.
Itefeiee In Bankruptcy r A. Van
Wuimer had on exhlhltlon In his oiliie
jexterdny aftinoon two exnn.ples of
t'te journa'.inn of over half a century
tif which weie certHlnly nmusing to
contemplate, peruse and compare with
the present Issues of the same papers.
One was a New York Sun and the
othei a New Yoik Herald, both of the
date of May 21. 1W. Tho whole fltst
page of one of them was devoted to ad
vertisements, with one small news item
almost completely concealeil in the
tight hand corner. It was the account
of a horse race, and verily so ashamed
of Its loneliness, bore the parenthesed
apology "iKrom last evening's eciw
Hon)' .
The editorial page was covered with
smail squibs, characteristic of the hu
mor of sixty years ago, most of them
being very villainous puns, such as "a
fruit womafi named Stout
of North norden, Va., Is flii years old.
Quite an aged sprout," und other simi
lar atrocities.

PLANNING FOR
A CONFERENCE
ONE PURPOSE OF THE MINERS'
CONVENTION.
President Nichols Says tho Matter
Will Be Discussed and It Is Likely
a Committee Will Be Appointed to
Arrange for a Joint Meeting of the
Representatives of tho Coal Com
panies nnd tho United Mine Work
ersDeclares the Engineers Are
Making a Mistake.
The convention of Tnltert
Workers, which will convene
morning nt Jlnzleton. will be a
Mine
this
most
Important one, a there are numerous
matters of the utmost Importance to
the men of the nnthraclte region which
will be brouRht up for discussion' nnd
nctlon.
There will be present nt the resslon
the ofTlceis and hoatds of Districts No.
1, 7 nnd !t. delegates from the locals
throughout the three dlsttlets, and
President John Mitchell nnd the mem
bers of the national executive board.
Tho local delegation, headed by Sec
retary-Treasurer John T. Dempsey and
the local board members, will leave
here nt f, 11 o'clock and be Joined In
Wilkes-Bat re by the Luzerne contin
gent, leavitis the city nt 7 45 o'clock.
President Thomas D. Nichols will meet
the representatives of this district at
Nantlcoke.
It Is expected that six hundred men
will he present when Prfsldent John
Mitchell calls the convention to order,
and Its j-ef-slmis nre expected to be
of several days' duration. Foremost
among the uuestlons which will come
before the delegates Is the matter of
mine cards nnd the negative attitude
which has been adopted by th'1 com
panies towards the periodical examin
ations at the collieries of there cettlll-
cates of good stHiidlng
Numerous cases of trouble have been
occasioned through clashes hetween the
companies nnd mine workeis In regard
to thl, already, and for awhile the
Bellevue nnd Woodward collieries of
the Ilelawnte, Lackawanna and West
ern Railroad company were closed by
the men going on stilke as a lesult,
and a like condition pievnlled at the
Maltby colllety of tho Lehigh Coal
companv,
NIl'HOLS' STATHMKNT
Ptesldein Thomas I) Nichols, of W
trlct No. 1, wns seen nt local head
quarters yesterday by a Tribune man.
and In disclosing the piobable doings
of the convention, said' "The matter
which has been largely Instrumental In
causing the boards of the three dis
tricts to call this convolution, is the
manner In which the companies have
violated their agreement with us by
dlschatging men who lefusod to tnke
the places of firemen. The Lncka
vvaniiH is among the offending com
panies In this respect, and It was the
fact that they discharged six men nt
the Woodward that the strike at that
colllety occurred
"Moreover, several of the different
companies have icftoed to tako back
firemen who went out on strike, nnd
there are In all about forty of those
employ, oh Idle "
The mine workers have not given up
the fondly-nourished hope thnt a writ
ten ngteement can be drawn up be
tween mine woikeis and opeiatois,
which signed by lepresentatlvcs of
both sides would prove a binding nnd
lasting contract for whatever period
stipulated. It is likely a committee will
be elected nt the convention to obtain
an Interview with representatives of
the companies, to fojm r-uch an agree-
niert
"We want a formal written agree
ment," said President Nichols, em
phatbally. yesterday. "I do not know
what action the convention Is going to
take on the matter, but It will un
doubtedly be discussed. If such a con
tract was made, there could be no de
nials by cither side of any arrange
ments made, In the manner which has
now been ndopted In numerous in
stances, owing to the fact that mere
verbal transactions had occurred"
AS TO Tim i;ninkkks.
Piesldent NlchoW denied any actual
knowledge of the work done by the
stationary engineers at their state con
vention, held here Sunday. "I see by
the papeis," he remarked quietly, "that
thev ate decided not to nlllllate them
selves with the mine workeis. In my
opinion the engineers, as well as all
other mine employes, are very foolish
not to join the 1'nlted Mine AVoikers.
Our association expects to get nn
agreement with the operator and If we
i-ecuie it and sign It, we will most as
suredly keep our side of the contract.
"And It is plain to see that if we sign
an agreement we can give no help to
the engineers, or nnv like organization.
In the way of a sympathy strike, nnd,
moreover, their number Is so limited
that the companies can probably easily
secure outside help to fill their places,
In event of their cessation If work "
It had been thought that President
Mitchell would be In the city vester
ilay, but word was received that he
had gene on to national headquarters
nt Indlanapoll?, Saturday, and would
go to Hazleton direct from there with
tho national board members.
