INDIANAPOLIS, April 2.—Rufus Cant- rell, the grave robber, convicted under two counts of an indietment, one of which was for taking a body and the other for conspiring to take a body, was sentenced to-day.

A great deal of American emigration to Can- ada is due to discontent among American workmen. This frightful condition of affairs prevails because not only the Senate and House of Representatives, but also the State Legisla- tures, are in the hands of the combines, the trusts and Pierpont Morgan.

The Jackson union ac- | cepted the terms submitted by the mine owners through Superintendent McClure of the Gwin mine. The setilement is on the same line as that proposed a week ago.

This waiting time 'is included in the nine hours of the company’s time. Both sides are jubilant and the union claims a great victory and intends to| parade to-morrow. The men promise that fully as much if not more work will be done under the revised schedule than un- der the old system.
