of the convention, in response to a message from President Huston, to answer charges made earlier in the week that he had been a party to nn agreement with the operators that the miners were not to expect any increase in wages. President White took the floor at the opening of the session and said in part: "I am here in response to a message from President Huston, informing me that I have been charged with entering into an agreement with the operators that the miners will not ask for an Increase in pay. I am glad that the convention has done me the honor to clear me of these charges before I arrived. I have never been charged with dishonest conduct in office. I have made no alliances with anyone.

"So far as I know and while I am presiding over the destinies of your organization, no alliances have been or will, be made with any coal com pany. I have been a miner myself, and I have distinct remembrances of the conditions in the coal mines, and know the hardships that you endure You halve not offices enough to bestow or gold enough in your treasury to make me do anything to injure the men who brave the dangers of the mines. We are not going to go to pieces now because of a little friction "I want you to take a calm and dispassioned view of the situation, and I hope that you will solve this problem as you have others in the past, wisely and well. I admire President Houston for his courage, and I know that he has done the best that he could for your Interests. I am more than com

pensated for coming here by knowing that your convention has cleaned me of all charges."
Following President White's address, the convention again took up the grievance of West Terre Haute local No. 1702, regarding the cleaning up of slate, and after considerable discussion the motion was tabled.
Discrimination Charged.
The next grievance taken up was from Clinton local No. 1045 and charged President Houston with neglecting his duties in the cases of men discharged for the tamping of their shots and for misleading the last delegate convention with remarks made concerning the same. This case was presented by Delegate Alex Houston.
The delegate charged discrimination, saying he had been discharged for tamping shots while other men who had done the same thing had not been discharged, but he admitted that he was working again pending the settlement of the case. President Houston said the man's act had been ft violation of contract and that he wanted the district officials to demand pay for time lost. This case was tabled with the understanding that it was to be taken up by the district executive board.
The next and last grievance taken up by the convention was from Clinton local No. 2061 and said that Board Member Moss had visited Jackson Hill mine No. 5 on March 30, on a grievance pertaining to Mine Committeeman John Clark, who had been discharged for placing a limit on turns at certain entries that were sixteen to twenty cars in the lead, and that In adjusting the case Board Member Moss had allowed Clark to be permanently discharged in violation to the agreement between the miners and the operators. This case was presented by Delegate Lewl£. Board Member Moss said the mine was to close the following day and that Clark had said that he was willing to let the case rest until the mine reopened. Delegate Stinson said that apparently Clark had been discharged for asking the coal company to get back to the contract and that Board Member Moss had sustained the decision and this appeared to be the view of the majority of the delegates as they voted to adopt the grievance as It had been read on the floor of the convention. As a punishment it was decided to start a movement to secure the recall of Board Member Moss.
Convention Adjourns.
There seemed to be considerable difference of opinion as to how turns should be regulated and President Houston said that as soon as possible the executive board of the district would be called together and would Issue a circular on the subject.
The docking system was again discussed and Chairman Roberts appointed a committee of Delegates Littlejohn, Stinson and McGee to present the docking clause in the constitution to the meeting of the national executive board which will convene In Indian apolis August 10, for interpretation.
The convention then adjourned sine die.

GIRL WIDOW fACES BIG
II
Must Either Send Father to Electric Chair or Admit She Was Wronged Before Marriage.
HAVERSTRAW, N. Y., July 25—Her honor or her father? Which shall she save? These are questions that tonight are nearly driving the beautiful 20-year-old Mrs. Eugene Newman in-
Widowed six days after her marriage by the act of her father, the young woman now faces the alternative of seeing her parent—the slayer of her husband—go to the electric chair unless she comes forward with a statement that her 18-year-old husband wronged her before their marriage- All Haverstraw Is eagerly awaiting to seo what the girl-widow will do. William V. Cleary, her father, was political boss of this little town, and lias sceres of friends.
Stricken with grief for the killing of her boy-husband, who had been her childhood sweetheart, and the arrest of her father for the crime, Mrs. Newman, prostrated in her home, gives no inkling of what her attitude will be. She is known to have expressed anger when she first heard that her father declared, "I killed him because I thought he had wronged my daughter."
The girl is believed to be fighting cut the battle alone. Whether she should preserve her honor and see her father die, or admit that she had been wronged and eave her parent's life, she refuses to discuss to persons who have been her closest friends.
That the girl's father will plead emotional insanity seemed certain tonight. He talked for the first time, declaring that he had been driven half Insane over the belief that Young Newman had betrayed his daughter. He took to drink and asserts he was irresponsible when Young Newman came to his office- The slayer professed lot to have heard a word when Newman came to t^tl him that he had married his daughe#h

sent for a prison term In the Texas state's prison at Huntsvllle. In 1889, he willi six others attempted an escape and of the six, four of them "lifers," he was the only one' to maSfe his get away. Four were killed outright and he was shot through the earIn order to effect the escape the six, who were working In the machine shop, erected two ladders to reach to the roof, and binding one of the aged guards to use as a shield against gun shots, the six carried him to the top of the ladder.
The first man up the ladder loosened his hold on the guard and then tho outside guards began their fire. The first convict fell shot through the head. The next was on top of the wall and McCarthy crouching behind him leaped. The man who protected him, fell, shot through the body.
McCarthy went to Miadlson, Wis., where he became acquainted with a saloon keeper namer O'Hagan. He rebbed the man of several rundred dollars and was caught by a detective named O'Shaunessy, he said. He was given a eentenc of 18 months when he returned all the loot.
The man was arrested later In Oshkosh, Wis., for robbery, but beat the case and from there he went to Cedar Rapids, la-, where he was arrested under the name of George Connors for a deal pulled off in Des Moines, la. He had at that time several diamonds and considerable money but won the case when he proved an alibi.
Caught After Accident.
In Galveston, Texas, he was arrested while burglarizing a house after having lootdd the dwelling next door. He was caught only when he fell down stairs and broke his leg. At the first house ho secured diamonds and money and all were found on his person. He was sent back to the Texas prison, from which he had escapjed nearly 14 years before and was recognized and compelled to serve all his time. When released he was again captured in Lee Summit, Colo., and given six more years for burglary.
He shot an officer in Springfield, Mo., later when the officer had him cornered and was given two years for that- In December, 1912, he went to New York City. He was "broke" and hungry and had nothing to eat and was trying to borrow some money. Unable to make the "touch" he went to Passiac, N. J., where he went through a house and got nearly $1,000.
He caught a train and went to Paterson, N. J., where he attended early mass to throw off suspicion. After mass he caught a train and went to New York City, where he spent his loot in less than two weeks with Tom Sharkey, saloonkeeper there. He then went to Boston, Mass., and stole some silverware, which he pawned on his return to New York.
In November, 1912, he went to'Sommerville, Mass., where he robbed a house of $135, and returned the next February and got $150 more from the same house. He says he worked in Lynn, Boston and Brockton, Mass.
Knew Chappy Moran.
When asked if he knew Chappy Moran, he smiled and said he knew him well, and that at the present time the man was hanging around Mike Kenna's place in Chicago. He told the police to write to the New York authorities' and ask them if they ever found the man who burglarized the notion store on the Bowery two years ago off Hester street, and also if they ever found the man who blew the safe

Pythian Week Resume
By Capt. A. O. Dnddleitoa.
A.C.DlDDliSSTON personally that they have had the time of their lfves at the Pythian encamp ment here, and that they never knew before what real hospitality was, it Is proper for Terre Hauteans who really love Terre Haute, to felicitate them selves on the Pythian encampment that has just closed. A Pythian knight from Piedmont, W. Va., who visited the headquarters of the Sixth regiment Saturday morning said that he had heard a lot of the famous hospitality for which the south is noted, and had experienced it, but that it wasn't to be compared with that he met with here in Terre Haute. Despite the heat, for which the executive committee was not responsible, despite the dust, which has been a feature of every camp that has ever been held, every (visitor that spent the time in camp has gone away pleased with the reception given, and every one loud in his praise of Terre Haute. The principal kick that has been heard has been from Terre Haute people themselves, who were not called on to spend the time in camp, but who are glad to exercise that proud Terre Haute privilege of kicking. As the parade passed along the line of march Tuesday afternoon, and epcercising for myself a privilege I denied my men of "rubbering," and as we passed the homes of members of the board of directors of commercial organizations who preach all the time "Boost Terre Haute," and saw homes without even a fiive-cent flag to decorate in honor of the grandest ceremony that Terre Haute ever had, or will ever have, in your time or mine, I realized "what's the matter with Terre Haute." Our boosters who "boost" when boosting will bring them trade ought to become real boosters, who will boost for Terre Haute because they love It and want to see it move to the front Terre Haute had the greatest advertisement this week that she has ever had, and that is the most that was promised for her by those who had anything to do with bringing the Pythian encampment to the city. At that, some of those who are identified with the order are likely to be compelled to leave town by the kicks of those who expected to reap a hai+vest and didn't That's a mighty poor article of local patriotism, but it is the kind that Is too common In Terre Haute.
on Elizabeth street. He said he spent considerable of his stolen money in Tom Lee's cafe at Thirty-ninth street and Third avenue, New York City. He served three months in Bridgeport, Conn., for burglary.
He estimated his earnings in burglary in the past thirty years at $150,000, but he said he never stole watches or jewelry or silver money.
He was arrested in Terre Haute in September, 1913, under the name of Dan Sullivan, for entering a house with felonious intent, but was acquitted. He is known as Patrick Sullivan, "Cheyenne Red," Thomas Harrington, Patrick Scanlon and Tom Connors.

VILLA STARTS SOUTH WITH SOLDIERS SOON
Clashes With Carranza Over Number of Men to Go, and Latter Concedes the Point.
CHIHUAHUA, Mexico,, July 25.— General Francisco Villa arrived here this afternoon from Guerror, and at once announced that he would depart for Mexico City next Wednesday. The main body of his army, which will participate in the occupation of the capital, is already on the way south. The remainder of the brigades designated for this service will leave Monday for Quereto, the mobilization point.
It developed today that there had been a serious clash between "Villa and General Carranza over the occupation of Mexico City. Carranza at first ordered Villa to send 5,000 soldiers and Villa refused, on the ground that he was allowed to have only that many, while General Gonzales and Obregon, respectively of the divisions of the northeast and northwest, would have their entire divisions in the capital. The difficulties were finally smoothed out by Carranza, who ordered that 5,000 troops from each division should go to Mexico City.
General Felipe Angeles left for the border today to purchase more sup-
plies for the artillery of Villa's army.
