After further | considering the situation the general counselors of the roads involved reed that injunctions against the eight railroads named in the bills would bring about a. situation greatly to.be depiored Dby the railroads.

Should injunctions ue sgainst them and not against the Uniop Pacific and other lines that extend wesl from Kansas City and southwest also, tho result, 80 far as the lines enjoined are concerned, would be disastrous, It {6 asserted that such a condition would work an injustice: against these roads as it would preclude their fneeting competition.

It was true, he aeid, that Mr. Hill and bis assistants had mo difficulty in electing directors of the Great Northern. Originally the plan was to turn over to th Securities company only the Great Northern shares held by thé controlling Intérest, but later this was modified so as to sllow all stockholders to convert all their shares in Northern Securities stock. Mr. Kennedy sald that the objest of the Northern Securities company was.to protect the holdings of the Nofthern Pacific against such an attack as occurred here last spri and which resulted in the pamic. He sald that originally it was the idea to pool the Northern Pacific stock only. “Was it the purpose of .you gentlemen to place the stock of the Northern Securities company on the market for . purchasers? asked Mr. Lancaster, “I cannot remember that any such thing was ever discussed or suggested.” ‘Was it not your intention to acquire other property besides the Northeran Pacific and Great Northern?" Mr. Kennedy sald there had been sugges- tlons in that direction. He knew nothing of his own knowledge about a pirchase of $11,000,000 or $12,000,000 of .Great North- ern stock by Mr. Hill. He understeod the stock was purchased, but he did not know how much. He purchased 10,000 res himself. TO BUILD RAILROAD IN PERU J.

The committee on rules and ofder of business met at 8:30 o'clock, a half hout previous to assembling of .the conven- tion, and completed the detalls of its work. The delogates this morning displayed much interest in the expected presentation by Preaident Mitchell of the letter from the presidents of operating companies declining conference with officials of the United Mine Workers: These latters conatitute one of the most important subjects to be. con- sidered by the convention, but the deiegates, having nothing but a genmeral knowledge of thelr contents, declined to discuss thelr . probable action concerning the communica~ tions. President Mitchell today reiterated his denlal that the visit of Secretary Ralph M. oy of the Clvic. federation concerned the situation in the anthracite coal region. When asked it he would make any further effort to see J. Plerpont Morgan, Mr. Mitchell gaid he had made no arrangementa looking to that end. Want Coal Weighed.

A letter signed by several victims of the Lattimer strike, appealing for aid, was read and om motion & collection was taken up for the benefit of the sufferers. A Polish delegate suggested that as a few of the delegates could understand but Httle English, interp 's report the pro- ings to thelr colleagues. effect was carried and the vice presi- dents of the three districts were appointed to servi The credentials committee made {ts final report, which showed the total num- ber of delegates present to be 631, with 926 votes.

Some regions desire pay by the yard and others want to be paid by welght. In our district we want the coal weighed and we want it so badly we are willing to fight for it if necessary.” The next business in order was the report of tl special committs consisting of President Mitchell and the distrigt presi- dents appointed at Indianapolls, to seek a conférence with the operators. President Mitchell announced that letters had been recelved from the operators and he deemed it advisable for the convention to gonsider them Iin executive session. His suggestion was adopted and at 10:35 the convention went into executive session. President Mitchell addressed the conven- tion and he stated that he advised caution prudence in arriving at any decision as to further. action. ‘What the fital outcome will be is, at this time, purely problematical,” was the concluding sentence of the press commit- tee's statement. The indications here tonight point strongly to a strike declaration, as let- ters recelved from operators seem to have caused much bitter feeling among the men.
