Report of Retiring Officer Shows Heavy Deficit for the Year. Special Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, July 17.—Charles H. Tweed resigned to-day as president of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company and E. H. Harriman was €lected to succeed him. This action was taken at a meeting of the directors of the company, when its an- nual statement was made, showing an in- crease of 3$3%4,503 in its debt to the South- ern Pacific Company for new steamers. crease of $1,041,819 in the year's revenue, against a decrease of $366,063 in_ expendi- tures. The majority of stock of the Pa- cific ,Mail Company is owned by the! Soutnern Paclfic Company, of which Mr. | bate, in which the gencral sentiment was Harriman is the head, and, therefore, | against the ordering of the strike. The there will be no change in the policy of | the former line.

In his speech in the conventfon this afternoon Mitchell advised strongly against a strike and urged that the bituminous miners con- tinue at work and that a system of as- sessments upon the members of the order, which he outlined, be carried into effect | as the best means of affording aid and support to the striking anthracite men in| the East.

In the course of his address to-day Their e e Battle of their action upon the public mind; but the past history of the labor movement teaches lessons that should not be forgotten to-day. As far as my knowledge goes I do not know of one solitary sympathetic strike of any mag- nitude that has been successful. On the con- trary the most conspicuous among the sympa- thetic labor struggles have resulted in igno- minlous and 'crushing defeat. not only for the branch of industry originaily involvea, but | also for the divisions participating through sympathy. In my judgment the United Mine Workers should not repeat the mistakes which like milestones mark the path trod ,by the tolling masses.in their never ceasing Struggle for better and higher civilization. VOTE AGAINST A STRIKE. At a caucus of the Illineis delegation held to-night it was determined to oppose any general strike. It was also decided to stand by the recommendations of Pres- ident Mitchell, with the exception of one declaring in favor of an assessment of 31 | a_week on members of the union. This assessment, the Illinois men declare, should be made on a percentage basis. Ohio took action similar to that of Tilinois. The Iowa miners held a caucus in the evening and decided to uphold the action of President Mitchell. The action of the caucuses to-night makes a general strike practicaily out of the question. The meeting of the anthracite miners, held after the adjournment of the con- vention, resulted in nothing but the con- clusion that there was no way in whieh a strike could be forced and that those members of the anthracite districts who were anxious for a sirike would be dis- PRESIDENT MITCHELL URGES MINERS NOT TO VOTE FOR GENERAL STRIKE Indianapolis Convention Heeds His Strong Appeal Against a Sympa- thetic Walk-Out and the Unions in the Anthracite District Without This Recourse is in_ Topeka to present grievances to the Santa Fe officials and probably to | notify the company of a demand for au Increase in wages.

The Car- | men’s Union is composed of the men in | the Santa Fe shops who have charge of the making and repairing of cars. It is | understooa that the committee will ir- sist upon compliance with the dema for more wages, and, in case of refusal, will advise a strike of the union. Superintendent of Motive Power Geors R. Henderson is out of the city at nre ent, trying to settle the strike on ti Gulf lines, and the committee is await- ing his return. E. E.

HANNA PREPARES T0 WAR ON W0D | Will Try to Prevent His | Appointment on Ca- nal Commission. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. WASHINGTON, July 10.—Senator Han- na has informed friends in Washington that he will not permit General Leonard Wgod to become a member of the Isth- | mian ‘Canal Commission if he can_pre- vent it. It has been reported that Wood | would like to be a member of the com- | mission, and that the President would | appoint him its head. | " 'Hanna has heard that Wood was slated | | for the place, and Hanna holds Wood re- | | sponsible for the troubles of Major Rath- | bone in Cuba. He disllkes Wood, and | has informed his friends that he will oppose his confirmation by the Senate, I1f he carries out his threat therc , will ! be the long-expected break between Han- | na and the President, and he may suc- ceed in defeating the confirmation if | Wood be nominated. | 1t is certain that the Senators will try to dictate the nominations for members of the commission. That was why Hep- | ! burn tried to have the provision stricken | out of the bill giving the Senate power | [ to confirm. He wanted to leave the se- | | lection of the commission to the Presi- dent and hold him responsible. He said | at the time that the Senate would maie the commission “a sort of eleemosynary | | institution for decayved statesmen who | had departed the Senate.” He was beaten [ by the Senate, and Hanna will have his ! opportunity to show his opposition to | { Wood if the President nominates him for one of the members of the Canal Commission. | OFFICIALS OF MINE ARE HELD BLAMELESS PARK CITY, Utah, July 17.—The Cor- oner’s jury returned a verdict this after- ! noon holding the mine officials entirely blameless for the accident in the Daly West silver mine. | Only four of the dead miners leave families.
