Carterville Men in Favor of Ac

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Carterville, III.. March 13. A large
gathering of coal miners working at ad
jacent collieries met ut Thompson's Hall
this afternoon to consider the S4 per cent
reduction of wages, effective April 1.
Tho sentiment expressed was strongly
against a strike, tho miners believing
that a tmo-year contract, with the pro
posed reduction, is better than a long and
costly tie-up.
As this place has been the scene of
some memorable fights in defense of the
principles of the U. M. W. A., the local
lodge's action. It Is thought, will have
great weight over the district next Tues
day, when the vote to strike or accept
the operators' terms will be cast.

Washington. March 13. Charles M. Pep
per, appointed by President Roosevelt as
Commissioner to carry out the recom
mendations of the second International
American Conference In Mexico two years
ago with regard to the Pan-American
Railway, has submitted his report to the
State Department.
Commissioner Pepper spent a year in

Bided in his work by the United States
Ministers. His Inquiries covered the gen
eral subject of trade opportunities that
would result from railroad building, as
well as actual railway construction.
The report says that the general project
of an Intercontinental line, which ulti
mately will place New York and Buenos
Ayres in thorough railway communica
tion. Is receiving much encouragement. At
th nresent time about 4.800 miles are lack
ing, and the estimated cost of construction
Is placed at 3150.000,000.
Commissioner Pepper rays the intercon
tinental project, as well as railway build
ing In general, has been advanced by the

dary disputes In South America, the pro
posed new Chilean tunnel through the
Andes, the Peruvian guaranty fund of
Jl.000,000 a year for railway construction
and the definite determination to dig the
