IN THE HOOKING VALLEY.
The Operators Watching the Mines
With Gatling Gun and Freez-
ing Out the Strikers.
Special Telegram to the Globe.

SpSclal Telegram 10 the Globe.
LOGAN, o., Dec. 3.--To-day's investigation
of the mining troubles reveals the facts that
the restitution of the starving famili,s Is on
the increase, and 1t will not be long ere a
climax is reached in many eases. The sup
ply Of bone coal is fast disappearing,
and the freezing-out process bids
fair to rid the Hooking valley
of the unfortunate miners and their
children. No relief in TIE shape of clothing
and food, other than the meager supplies
furnished by the commissary, has been re-
ceived, and there seems 10 be a tardiness in
this matter that is little short Of criminal
The tation Of the de. tuition made
recently is not overdrawD a whit. Not
hundredth part of the story has been
t)ld and il is shame that there is not a
prompt response To the appeals that have
been made coincident with the descriptions
of desttution,
The operators are heartily tired of the i'm
ported miners they are trying to work. They
admit privately that the new men are ruin
ing the banks, and that they would
like to get the old miners back.
but the fact is that the operators
aretoo high strung and obstinate to make the
least concession. The only concession that
is asked by the miners is that they shall be
allowed to 60 to work without signing con-
tract that deprives them of their manhood.
yet the operators prefer to pay about hun
dred Pinkerton guards s. az In addition
TO the salaries of 200 other guards and the
expense of patrol train, which, with other
extras incidental 10 the present regime, is
enormous. BY the way, that patrol train
carries gatling gun. 1t is manned by two
men, and there are on the train twelve men
men armed with Winchester repeating rifles.
SO much has been said about the wages
miners earn that il may be well at this time
TO give little information ON this subject
that comes from practical miners and not
from theorists. Since the advent of the coal
syndicate the men are not paid anything for
cleaning their rooms of bone coal, bailing
out water, setting posts or laying track A
miner may work all the morning at balling
bis room in order to free It of water so that
he can mine coal in the afternoon. Some
days he does not get out to the hopper any
coal at all. He works away blasting
and getting ready for the little
cars that are dragged into the mine,
and may be he will have by the next day
enough coal to average up two fair days
work. The miners frequently worked twenty
one hours aday. The haulers' day is ten
hours. The miner is paid by the ton for the
coal that be sends out to the hoppers. All Of
the coal is run over a screen, which
is one inch aud a quarter between
the bars. All of the coal that
falls through these screens, and which is
called pea and nut coal, is not paid for by
the operator. 1t is mined for nothing and
is sold at a clear profit. II is the testimony
of several miners who claim TO have kept an
account that the money realized from the
sale Of this fine coal pays the running ex-
penses of mine.

FL Mahdi, who has been for some time the
terror of lower Egypt, few years ago an
nounced himself as the successor Of Ma
bonnet and trihe better than the original
prophet. He occupied a very poor position in
life, has been = hermit for some time, and
crept out Of his hole 10 hoist the banner of
tht faithful and wage war against the inf
dels. The expressions under which the
pashas had suffered at the hands of the
Turks was the immediate cause foi his pop
ularity, and thus, when the Mahdi an bounced
bis divine authority for raising a jehad upon
the Turk, he had first the sympathy
and later on the adherence of nearly all the
tribes. At the first signs OF tronble Osman
DiEma appeared with q commission from the
Mahdi, and went round preaching war
against the government. he got about 500
followers together, aud was proceeding to
threaten Siukat, when Tewhk Bey. en- ener-

that place from Suakim and took com

By the 1st Of October, 1888, Osman, while
amusing Suleiman Pasha with futile
negotiations, bad got z together another
horde Of followers, with whom on that date
he surprised and utterly destroyed two com
panies of Egyptian troops that were marching
TO SiDkat. This success atonee SCI the whole
country in a blaze. Tokar and Sinkaf were
beseiged, and Egyptian authority in the east
