Nov. 20.—The conservative leaders in the council of workmen were again victorious, carrying a resolution against any attempt to introduce a movement for an eight hour day. Washington, Nov. 20. —After long consideration the board of consulting engineers of the isthmian canal commission, composed of men eminent at home and abroad In the engineering field, has concluded its labors with a decision in favor of the construction of a sea level canal across the isthmus of I anania. The board's conclusions have been formulated for presentation to President Roosevelt. Some of the American members favored a lock and dam canal on the ground that the saving in time of construction made this project more desirable, but it has been evident ever since the return of the board of consulting engineers from Panama that a majority of members were of the belief that the permanent advantages of a sea level canal outweighed the advantage in time which would come from the construction of a lock and dam waterway. London, Nov. 20.—Tnsascer overtoo* tho Southwestern railway's cross channel steamer Hilda near St. Malo. The Hilda left Southampton for St. Malo, on the north coast of France, with 128 persons on board, all but Ave of whom are believed to have been drowned. Her passage was greatly delayed by a fog In the channel, and when nearing St. Malo she ran into a severe snowstorm, apparently missed her course and foundered on the rocks off Jardin lighthouse, three miles from St Mhlo. Philadelphia, Nov. 20.—A funeral without a parallel in this city took place yesterday at the Midvaie Steel vVorks, where a 40-ton ingot of steel permeated with the flesh, blood and oones of two workmen, was buried with the solemn rites bf the Roman Catholic church. The workmen who were so strangely laid away were John l1 orkin and Joseph Gazda, two foreign speaking laborers, who met a horrible death a week ago. They were in a pit near a cupola containing many tons of molten steel. A plug gave way and 80,000 pounds of the fiery fluid poured from the cupola and overwhelmed them. The men were completely incinerated and not a trace of themselves nor their clothing was left. The Midvaie Steel Co. was averse to selling the steel or using it for the purpose it was intended and it was decided to bury it with the rites of the church to which the unfortunate men had belonged. Accordingly the 40-ton Ingot, oval in shape, 28 feet long 6 feet wide and 5 feet thick, was moved last week by a traveling crane to th* rear of the machine shop, where a ?rave ten feet deep had been made. The great mass of metal was laid in the hole and a platform built over it Do that the burial services could be better performed. In the center of the platform was aij opening six feet in diameter.

The company's steamer Ada, outward bound from St. Malo, rescued five. These are now on the way to Southampton and It is believed are the only survivors, though an unconfirmed report reached Paris that seventy had been saved.

Canal Line to Be Straightened. The new plan contemplates also a straightening of the line of the canal, and this will mean that the entrance on the Atlantic side will be two miles to the west of the present entrance, which is close to the city of Colon, the sheriff's office. Several matters concerning the deputy were brought to the attention of the court by Attorney Jdines L. Morris and as a result an investigation was ordered. Judges Lynch, Ferris and Wheatonwere sitting at the time, and Masi present and was represented by AV torney John T. Ifnahan. Attorney Morris accused Masi of having taken from Penino, the Italian recenfly convicted of carrying concealed weapons and sentenced to a year In jail, the sum of $40 under the pretense that the money was to be used in settling the case.

At the Sunday morning service In the Congregational church, an especlilly forceful sermon was delivered by the pastor, Kev. E. G. Heal, on the subject of "Sin." The text wae Epheslans 4:30, "And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption." One of the changes resulting from the recent transfer,of Lehigh Valley Coal Co. officials Is the promotion of Albert Browning, of this place, from the position'of clerk at the Exeter colliery to the much more responsible one of chief shipping clerk, with headquarters at the general office in Wllkesbarre. Mr. Browning has been employed in the office at Exeter colliery for the past 14 and his faithful service to the company is now rewarded by his promotion to All one of the most important positions in the general office. His many friends will be pleased to learn of his advancement. He will continue to make his home here for the present, but in the course of time will probably change his residence to Wilkesbarre, in order to be In closer touch with his work. Intercit Now In 2cmctvo Congress. Interest feas now shifted to Moscow, where the zemstvo congress has o[Deued. The members of the new party from all parts of the country have gone there to make a—tight lu tile congress for a union of all the conservative and Liberal elements to hold up the hands of Count Witte, to condemn the political strike and to seek further political salvation through the doora opened by the manifesto, though It Is neither expected nor desired that the Cou■titutlonal Democrats will abjure their programme while joining in the movement toaid in the restoration of tranquillity. It is expected that a sharp , combat will develop with the large fraction of the zemstvoists who are arrayed with the Socialists to continue the tight against the government '••to the bitter end. The result of the congress is awaited with the deepest interest.while the exit at the Pacific end wli app be to the east and further away from the city of Panama than the exit under the plan upon which the canal was being dug up to the recent suspension of work.

Carpenter, of Grand Rapids, Mich., U taken from the Bulletin of the Westminster Presbyterian church, of Grand, Rapids, of which Rev. R. H. Hartley, D, D., is pastor: "Only two weeks ago we were called upon to mourn the death of o*r beloved fellow-worker. Dr. C. H. Rose, and now our hearts are again saddened beyond expression by the sudden death of another one of our most faithful members, Mr. J. R. Carpenter.' Probably those who have been actively connected with the Sunday school during: the past few years most keenly appreciate the value of Mr. Carpenter's labors among us. As superintendent of the school his interest in Its suteess was unflagging and his labor the most faithful. His business called him away from the city frequently. but even in pis absence the Interests of the school'were ever upon his mind and heart, so that letters to his assistants In office were frequent. When at home, evening after evening, and sometimes until a late hour, was Hi von up to working out plans. Every officer and teacher In the school felt toward him as Paul said of his friend Onesimus, he was 'a faithful and beloved brother.' All the Interests of Westminster were dear to him. and In his business aftd private life he was ajjove reproach. Now he has entered Into the higher service "in the palace of the King.'
