EXECUTIVE BOARD, W.F .M., REVIEWS UNIONS' PROGRESS Report Characterizes Conditions in Kansas. Missouri and Arkansas as Deplorable SEEK 6-HOUR LAW IN 3 STATES Recommend Federal Law for the Wiping Out of Wild Cat ters in Nevada [Associated Pressl UENVER, July 20.—The report of the exeeutivo board of the Western F deration of Miners, made to the . (invention here today, reviews con dition! in the mining fields in which (.he federation is active. Conditions, in Kansas, Missouri and Arkansas are characterized us deplor abls. In lliis field, the report says, wagi ■ are low, sanitary conditions are ,nd there is a lack of intelligence and unity among the workmen. The Joiilin, Mo., district, where 17,- OOQ nun are employed, is described as particularly bad. District No. 4, comprising Colorado, New Mexlca and Utah, is more pros perous than last year. There are comparatively few miners Idle at present. Efforts are being made to organize SOOO men employed In the mines and smelters of Uar fleld, Murray and Bingham, Utah. Seventy-five per cent of the workers in these camps are Greeks and Aus trians. In Nevada, Arizona and Southern California, conditions are improving, the report states, but Nevada is still ■Uttering from "wildcatters" and most of the work is being done in produc ing properties. The report recom mends the agitation for a federal law willing out the "wildcatter" who, It states, exploits a prospect and leaves the miner to hold the bag. CONDITIONS STAGNANT Mining conditions are stagnant in Idaho, and the greater portions of Washington and California except In the larger camps. The railroads and some of the larger mines in California, the report asserts, are ignoring the eight hour law. . Conditions in Canada are described aa good, but little is known of Alaska ise federation officials have been unable to lend out mail in the Win ter and steamship service has only | ntly opened. The report suggests that the federa tion us« its influence to have a six hour law for the mines passed . in Nevada, Montana and Arizona because of Intense heat in the mine workings. Jt asserts there is more ice used in the mines underground in Neva la than on the surface because of the in- : tense neat and that the miners work with i<o packed in their rubber boots, j Sometimes they are compelled to stand m water vvfhlch is at a temperature of 130 degrees. Ninety degrees tern >,. nature is a common tiling in the three named stated, says the report. I The 1 itei utive committee asks that . one days pay of each miner be con tributed to the organization fund and , another similar sum to the defense | fund. It is asserted that there are 2'iu,uun miners unorganized and the organization fund will be used to urge them to join unions. Charges were made formally asainst J. P. Madigan of White Falls, Mont., a delegate to the convention, to the j effect that he served as a railroad dep ! uty sheriff in the Great Northern i strike last winter. Madigan denies the. I charges and the matter was referred to a committee for investigation. John Powers was seated as a dele- Crom the Butte union over the contest of W. E. Bradley. A number of resolutions bearing on i recommendations from the president I and the executive board were intro duced and referred. President Mover appointed the com mittee, authorized by the convention, to go to Arizona and New Mexico to investigate tho feaslltblty of or ganizing a labor union party in the coming elections for delegates to the constitutional convention. T. J. Tur ner of Jerome, Ariz., is the chairman, The committee was instructed to re ! port to tli" convention in two weeks. | CASES AGAINST A. F.

SUSPEND FREIGHT RATE INCREASE Railroads Voluntarily Hold Up the Proposed Advance Until November [Associated Press} WASHINGTON, July 'JO.—lmportant advances In freight rates recently made by the railways in eastern Classifica tion territory will be suspended volun tarily by the railroads until November 1 mxt. This agreement Was made by a committee representing the carriers and by Chairman Knapp of the inter state commerce commission. chairman Knapp authorized the fol lowing announcement concerning the voluntary action tnken by the rail roads: "It being- understood that the com mission would exercise Its authority under the new law and suspend all «. !i, ral important advances made for the purpose of increasing of revenue the principal carriers in official clnssi ■ n territory, through a committee appointed for that purpose, proposed today voluntarily to postpone the el ective date of such advanced rates until November 1 next, and an ar rangement to that effect was made after a ..inference with tne committee "This will not delay investigation and decision as to the reasonableness of the proposed advances, but will obvi ate the necessity at this Urn. tor numerous suspension orders which otherwise would be made." It is not unlikely that a similar ar rangement may be made between the commission and the carriers In the western trunk line association terri tory Such an agreement, it is be lieved, will bo reached before the and of the present week. The carriers have taken this attitude in order to facilitate the work of the commission and to insure speedy consideration of the tariffs to be suspended. It Is the pur pose of the commission to take up for hearing the proposed advances as early as possible in order that the matters at issue may be determined If circum stances permit, prior to the first of November.

A number of these were sta tioned at various, points in the house and grounds. They were ordered to give no information to any person making inquiries. DETECTIVES CLASH This system was further compllcati when a squad of employes of a second private detective agency arrived at Winnetka. These men stated they had been ordered to make a full inquiry into the death. They visited the village police head quarters, talked with numerous resi dents Of Winnetka and tor a time it was believed they also were in the employ of members of the Rawn fam ily, But when they went to the Rawn residence they were repulsed by de tectives from the first agency and were ordered off the grounds. A brief altercation ensued and mem bers of the Rawn family were called to settled the dispute. Mr. Coburn and Mr. Brinkley told the second squad they were not wanted at the residence and had not been ordered It is not known who is responsible for engaging the second detective agency.

ON TAX BOARD GRILL Answers Questions Concerning Earnings. Mileage and Hold ings in California VALUATION METHOD IN DOUBT Proposal to Separate State and Local Taxes Touched on at Meeting [Associated Press) BACRAMENTO, July 20.—Santa Fo tax representatives were before the state board of equalization today to answer questions relative to the rail road's report on its earnings to aid the board In arriving af an estimation of the company's holdings in California, In its report that railroad stated that its earnings in California in 1909 amounted to (18,048,005.54 and that its mileage in this state is 1387.89. At the present time it is up to the state board of equalisation to deter mine what method of finding; the val uation of the railroad's property it shall use. but two method! are in vogue. One, favored by some members Of the board, would give $2,000,000 more in the sum of earnings than the method \ised by the railroad company. During- tho meeting the proposed con stitutional amendment which would separate state and local taxes was re ferred to. State Controller Nye wanted to know what check the state would have*to guarantee railroads would give correct reports of their earnings in case the amendment is adopted. The amendment provides a specific method of arriving at the. assessment valua tion of railroads. Professor Plehn, tax expert, and Tax Agent A. P. Maglnnis of the Santa Fe thought any falsification in reports from the railroad could be detected by an expert accountant. The Santa Fe reported thai, In freight revenue it took from Califor nia in 1909, J5,610,518.95, or J8655.76 per mile, and in passenger revenue $3,414. --425.92, or $2651.18 per mile. But the revenues for 1909 were not fo great as those of previous years, said Agent .Maginnis, largely becauso the orange irop of the south was 4000 cara short. To show that the Santa Fe has not been over-assessed by the state board of equalization, State Controller Nye cited the following example: The California property of the Santa Fe is bonded at $31,000 for each mile, plus $2j,000 per mile representing value of stock issue, totaling a valuation of $55,000 per mile. If the 60 per cent method of assessment were used this would place nn assessed valuation of $33,500 per mile. As a matter of fact, the Santa Fe is assessed only $20,000 per mile, or 45 per cent, Nye declared. The board also heard today the Salt T^ake railroad, which runs, between Sal! hake and Los Angeles. Tomor row the Pullman company will be up for a hearing.

I es caped without a scratch and swam ashore."
