Wall was very busy to-day paying out:$165,- 000,000 in dividends and interest. This enormous sum was disbursed: between the hours of 10 and 3.-but 'so perfect is the machinery that the great dis- tribution caused scarcely .a ripple to appear on the surtace. In the natidnal banks thére were long lines of méssen- ger boys in front of the coupon tlerks’ Some -of them had been in or six hours before the coupon counters opeged’ for business. 9 Of the individual firms J. P.. Morgan & Co, was the ‘heaviest disburser. The Morgan firm is the fiscal agent of the New York Central, the New York, New Haven and Hartford, the Erlé, the Reading, the Southern Railway, the United States Steel Corporation and a hundred smaller railyoad and indus- trial enterprises. Great interest was attached to the payment of ‘the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton- bonds and the Pere Mar- quette bonds. It was ‘thought at one time that there would be ho money avalilable to - meet. interest charges. Réceiver Harmon, however, got per- mission from the courts to borrow money sufficient to meét the charges, which were pald by J. P. Morgan & Co.

At one time the rate was as | high as 60 per cent, though a major- ity of the loans were made at 35 per cent.

Perhaps the most important decision of the day was the passing of a strongly .worded resolution against the present custom of judicial injunction. A resolution of minor interest, however, re- questing thé unions to assess themselves 5 cents per capita for the benefit of the striking Los Angeles printers created the most lvely discussion of the day. And the last resolution presented gave such promise of vigorous debate that it was shied at and unanimously left over till to-day for argument)” This resolution, presented by Typographical Union No. 21, proposes ‘‘that ne person $hall hold office in the Federation who holds Govern- mental office, either eléctive or appoint- ive,” and it is expected that much will be heard on it to-day. It was very cold in Germania Hall when the convention was called to order at 9 o'clock yesterday morning by Presi- dent Harry A. Knox. The American flags draping the stage and the official desks and encircling the gallery in pan- oplies seemed to have little effect on the atmosphere, and the four gas stoves scat- tered about did little better. The busi- ness was mostly routine, with no warm- ing oratorical flights. The delegates sat stolidly to their work with chattering teeth. POLITICIANS BUSY. Toward the back of the hall little groups formed that seemed to, be doing politics in view of the elections which take place to-morrow. Among the latter J. J. Ryan of the freight-handlers, and George Ben- ham, ex-president of the San Francisco Labor Councll, were specially evident. They are working for a ticket headed by G. 8. Brower for president and William Delaney for secretary - treasurer, and think that things are all their way. In the afternoon the sun, shining-on the southern windows, gradually heated the big hall, and the presenting of resolutions afforded much verbal exercise. The business of the morning began with the report of the committee on credentials. Two hundred and sixty delegates, representing unions from all over the State, were seated and received their badges. Among the dele- gates were three women, Miss Margaret O'Brien and Miss Anne Burkhardt, repre- senting the Garment Workers’ Union, Local 131, and Miss Julia Purdy, repre- senting Waitresses’ Union, Local 30. The badges were in circular shape, of white enamel. The State seal in blue was in the center, ringed with the following in- seription in red letters, “California State Federation of Labor,” and the supporting ribbon was a miniature American flag.

Two of her biggest boy pupils in the Millport vil- lage school rebelled and when the lit- tle teacher tried to chastise them they savagely attacked her. Miss Heston pounced upon the two young Hooligans, knocked their heads together until they saw constellations, and, - when they were sufficiently terrorized, whipped each with a birchrod until their yells of pain could be heard on the outskirts of the town.

The new Prefect of Debreczen County arrived at the county seat at 7 this afterncon.” He is an old man and when he saw the rough crowd collected at the station he decided not to leave the train. The crowd, however, recognized him and he was hustled from the car and maltreated. = He was thrown into an cquipage that had been provided to con- ~ey him from the station to his office and was so badly injured that he lost con- sciousness. After this the crowd carried the Prefect to a room which had been prepared with the semblance of the cell of a person condemned to death and left him there. . Fears are entertained that the Prefect will not recover. 2 —p het face Then the fight was on. Miss Heston dislocated her thumb in the. first onslaught, when she handed Swaney one on the jaw.
