V 1'. San ford with General .lohn
Little to secure the signatures of tho
iperators to tho agreement. When
the requisite number of signatures
iav been secured another meeting
will be held to ratify the ngrcoiuunt.
Speeches were made by DeArmlt
Dempster Little Zcrbe and others
ill expressing satisfaction ever tho
'es'ilt of the meeting and predicting
tho success of tho plan.
The ngreemont as adopted provides
for cash payment of wages 3000
pounds to the toil check wcighmoii
in tho tipples minors to be credited
with the full quantity of coal con-
tained in tho mine car abolition of
company stores semi-monthly 'pay
days uniform price for pick mining
in tho thin and thick vein districts
mid veins not exceeding one nnd one-
half Inches.
It also provides that In case of the
violation of the terms of the agree-
ment i penalty of 10 cents per ton on
Hie tolal output of coal mined by the
violator will bo charged which pen-
alty Is to bo paid to u commission sub-
ject to the right of elthci arbitration
or appeal. Said penalty when col-
lected to be distributed among tho
signers of the agreement pro rata in
proportion to the total amount of ton-
nage or output mode by them during
the year.
Tho commission is to be chosen an-
nually and shall bo known by the
name of tho uniformity commission.
It shall be composed of nine members
Hie thick and thin vein operators hav
ing proper representation. Tho mem-
bers will be sworn to faithfully and
Impartially perform tho duties of their
itlicc and will be authorized and em-
powered to enforce tho judgments and
awards.
It shall also be empowered to
tiihpocna witnesses witli the same
force and effect as a board of arbitra-
tion duly appointed under the act of
assembly of the state of Pennsylvania
relating to compulsory arbitration.
Tho agreement shall not become ef-
fective unless It has been signed by
15 per cont of tho operators on or bo-
fore January 1 180S.
After 00 per cent having signed the
agreement if any .Ifteon operators
ihall bo of t to opinion that enough
have signed to render It effective a
mooting shall be called in Pittsburg
to declare It In force
Tho operators with a few excep-
tions want it distinctly understood
thut tho passage of an agreement
whoroby all operators are to adopt a
similar system and aro to pay tho
same relative price for mining has
nothing to do with the great strike.
They wish tho minors to disabuse
their minds of any such thoorlos.
Tho operators hava also shut out
the miners' leaders from taking any
part In the conferences that may take
place through questions arising be
tween tho oporators nnd miners by
insortiug a clause in tho agreement
stating that tho commission shall bo
composed of workmen employed by
tho subscribers. Ilerotorfore tho
miners' ofllclals have represented tho
miners but now the miners aro to
grapple with the questions In dispute
alone.
It was decided that prasont contracts
oould not be made the basis for arbi
tration.- -Mnny-firms-lntvc taken con-
traots for a stipulated period at a
fixed price. It is understood that those
iliall have the right to supply tho
produot to fill theso contracts at the
rate of mining on which the contracts
ire based. Here is where the miners
md oporators will separate.

last night cast a rlpplo of dlseunl over
tho annual cniivuntlou of tho I'nlted
States League of Ioetil lliilhlliig and
Loan nMoclaiiottft Tho disturbing
element crept In through what was
eonsUlpred it Injudicious reference
ninda in President Iti-own's ad-
dress in -which the president inferred
Hint "low tariffs and fre trade" wore
n decided injury to the country's
business. Itonmrks of tills character
did not tnk well with several dolo-
gntes of the Democratic fnllh. They
said nothing about it during tho day
sessions lint shortly nfter the evening
sessions hnd begun the following
resolution was offered by Delegate
11 I.. Peok of Jackson:
"ltosoHdd That It Is the souse of
tills longiic that all mutters relating
to either toliglon or polities bo elim-
inated from consideration either in
debate or ii.ipors which may ha read
and that tho secretary is hereby re-
quested not to print anything what-
ever of a political or sectarian unturo
as a part of the proceedings of this
league."
Thero was a warm debate overn
motion to refer tho resolution to the
committee on resolutions. John F
Mctliiinls of Alton. 111. said tho idea
of bringing in politics ought to bo
condemned by every honest man pres-
ent whether ho believed In protection
or frco trade gold dollars or so-called
RO-cont dollars. Ho protested strongly
"in the name of tho great West." It
was wrong for the highest olllcer or
tho iiiiiublc&t mombcr to bring polities
Into the con volition.
An amendment was offered to send
tho resolution to tho committee with
instructions to report tho same at
once but this was strongly opposed.
A qtiostioii was raised as to tho pro-
priety of authorizing either tho secre-
tary or the resolutions committee to
act as censors over the papers.
After a long wrangle. President
llrown ruled discussion nud tho reso-
lution out of order lie said Hint tho
secretary could not properly bo author-
ized to cut matter from tho papers
rend. Hu had allowed the discussion
to coiitlniio because he supposed that
the resolution was aimed nt remarks
ha himself had made. A motion to
tnblo tho resolution than prevailed
and the discussion thorcon wns or-
dered expurgated from the record
which closed the incident.

B.w.TiMom: Md. July 29. Harmony
of tho old-fashioned kind prevailed at
tho Democratic statu convention here
yesterday and it was clearly demon-
strated that I'nited States Senator
Gorman still had his hand on the lever
that controls the movements of th
organization. n'J'ho candidates nom-
inated by tho convention w -e
solectcd by him and the resolu-
tions adopted were of his Inspira-
tion. As chairman of tho committee
on resolutions ho rend tho platform
and road it in such a wov as to Indi
cate tlint ho know It almost without
looking at It At his suggestion ono
of the candidates for comprMcr
withdrew whon his nomination seemed
assured and another was taken up by
tho convention nt his request anil
both gold and sliver men waived their
convictions for the nonce and voted to
ndopt a platform that declares for
bimetallism.
Tho following stato ticket was nom-
inated: For comptroller Thomas A.
Smith of Caroline county; for clerk of
tho court of appeals J. Prank Ford of
St. Mary's county.
Tho con volition assembled nominally
to select candidates for comptroller
and clerk of tho court of appeals b-
actually to open the campaign that
w ill decide who shall be tho next
I'ulted States Senator.
'liio resolutions which were adopted
without r Miiglu dissenting voice de-
clare that the fundamental principles
of Democracy have remained un-
changed. "Tho nomocracy of Murylund lit
common with the Domocracy of tho
union believe now us they always
have believed in honest money the
gold and silver money of tho constitu-
tion and tlio coinage of both metals
without discrimination against either
Into standard dollars of final payKittut '
null reiiotnpiion.
'We note with satisfaction that the
demand of more than 0500000 of
Democratic voters expressed at tho
polls last November has compelled
President McKlnloy nud a Itepubllcaa
Congress to urgo upon Iho Kuropcim
powers through tho medium of a duly
appointed commission the necessity
for an International ooitferenco to ar-
range tlio tonus of a bimetallic system
under tho operation of which both
gold and silver shall bo used and
reaognUed as money of final redemp-
tion. "Tho atiJTorlngs of the masses the
honest tollers the bone and sinew
tho brain and eouruge and manhood
of tlio land have mot with the sym-
pathy of the Democracy and tho pro-
tost of our great party so eloquently
voiced lu lust year's elections has
forced the ltepublloan party despite
Its arrogance and recklessness to
recognize the needs of an aroused
and patriotic people. Anil while
many Democrats have not approved
all the expressions of their party xn
national convention bimetallism will
surely come. It may come through
the Instrumentalities sot In mot. on by
the present administration though in
truth Inspired by the intrepid action
of the Democratic voters but It wi'l
come and the prosperity and happi-
nutt which follow lu 1U train will bo
dtle to the eouruge undaunted lideHtv
and intelligent patriotism of the De
mocracy.
"The platform denounces the Ding-
ley tariff law which it delays i8 a
more odious measure thun the McKIn
ley act of JtW and It is averted tlint
It will be mure signally condemned In
lattS thun was the McKiulcy act In
IbU'J. A demand is made that the
United States government take such
action as will ameliorate the atrocities
now being committed in Cuba and to
fully protect every American citizen
thero in the enjoyment of his lifelarj
property. '
