TROUBLES IN THE COKE REGIONS.
A Doubt ms to Whether the Conference VIII
be EfecIuaI.

Doubt ms to Whether the Conference VIII
be EfecIual.
A telegram from Scottdale last evening
says:
The trouble between the Knights of Labor
and the n. c. Frick Coke Company in regard
to the suspended men at Davidson Coke Works
has been settled, and all the men at that plant
will return to work tomorrow morning.
Orders have been issued by almost all the
coke companies for a general suspension of
work on Thursday next
The question Of the greatest Importance to
the Knights of Labor in this region at present
is whether the operators will consent to meet
the Executive Board of division No. on
Wednesday or whether the invitation to do SO
will be ignored. So far but two operators have
signifed th cir wllingre eSS to meet the board. The
object of this conference is TO determine upon
a plan by which the difficulties which are almost
of daily occurrence at the different works can
be speediIy and amicably settled. If this can be
accomplished the board will present the plan
adopted tc the delegate meeting to be held at
this place on Thursday This will be the most
important meeting ever held by the Knights of
Labor of this region. Among the most impor-
tant matters to be considered is the new scale
which Isto take the place of the present agree
ment at its expiration in February next There
will be few, if any, changes from the original
draft as published in THE DISPATCH some
weeks since.

Anthracite Coal Diggers In n DepIerable
Frame Of Mind.
ESPECIAL TELEeRAM TO THE DIsPkrcz.i
PoTTsvILLE, November 25.-The miners
in the anthracite coal regions are in . de-
plorable frame Of mind. Hard times are
written everywhere. The large number of
collieries that were shut down to stop coal
production are still idle. Added to these
are about all that were compelled to stop,
owing to the foods. Probably 2, 500 men
and boys are now out of work. Those
who are employed at the mines are working
at q 6 per cent reduction. The severe effects
Of the late long strike are still felt. Many
are not vet out Of debt. Winter is here, pro-
visions and produce are high, and it is for
all these reasons that the miners and labor
ers' organizations have issued pitiful ap-
peal for more wages and more work.
On the other hand, the coal companies
point to the fact that never before in the
history Of the coal trade has the anthracite
business been so very dull or unremuner-
ative With so many collieries shut down,
the market cannot begin to take the coal
that is now being mined under all the en-
forced idleness and restriction. The summer
schedule of prices, $3.50 for ordinary do
mestic sizes at Schuylkill Haven, has been
shaded as low as 81 40, but still trade is
lifeless,

TRYING A NEW SUBFERFUGE.

An Attempt TO smugEle In Chinese Women
as Merchants.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE D1sPATcH.l
SAN FRANCISCO, November 25.-Chi-
nese ingenuity has dug up another prstext
on which to land women in this country.
It now transpires that Chinese women, as
well as men, are ''merchants." Yet this
state of things never before came to the
attention Of the Custom House au-
thorities. The first Chinese woman
who came to the surface as
sole trader arrived on the City Of
de Janeiro, the last China steamer in. She
has given a sworn statement to the customs
officers that she is sole trader at Colusa, IN
spite of the widely known and generally ae-
cepted statement that Chinese women are
virtually the property of their husbands, and
many of them are actually owned. She
also swore that her husband conducted the
business for her as q sort of trustee, and she
paid him $40 month for 50 doing.
The ease is looked on as first Of many
which will land more women here for i'm
moral purposes.

A well-known sporting man received informa-

CHER is ready to fight Pat Farrell, of this city,
for $500 or s., 900 a side. either Queensberry or

genuine, but one of Pat Farrell's hackers had
the following to say:
Farrell has already challenged Ia Blanche
and until the latter has absolutely declined to
fight Farrell the Pittsburger will not interfere
with anybody else. Now, let me say this: Far
rell is doing no blowing. He has challenged
La Blanche in earnest, and he wants to fight in
California. If he was blower he could make
a NOISE with more men than Gallagher. The
latter dare not put uD money to fight Fogarty
after he, Gallagher, had made lots Of
noise about being better than Fogarty
If Gallagher wants to fight there are many
men, even at his own weight, who will fight
him. therefore, he need not interfere in any
affairs of Farrell. / can say this, that If ever
Farrell fights LaBlan che, lose or win, he will
only be too glad to meet an easy mark like
Gallagher. / would like to know who Gala
CHER has beaten, and when he ever put up
genuine forfeit to fight. That's ALL"

CALLAGHAN'S KICK.

Charges PowderIy With Dereliction Of
Duty-Ths Master Workman
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE pIsPArcH.i


Duty-The Master Workman
Bitterly Scored.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE D1sPArcH.i
scoTTDALE, November 25.-Edward
Callaghan makes public some spicy letters
which passed between himself and General
Master Workman Powderly, and which
throw some additional light upon the con-
spiracy cases now pending. During the
Legislative session of 1887 committee
representing the K. of L. was sent to Har-
risburg to watch legislation. The members
of this committee were paid So per day and
expenses. When the report was made Calr
laghan wanted a copy of it, but he didn't
get it. He says he got boycott instead.
On March 1, 1888, he addressed letter to
Master Workman Powderly stating that he
had been informed on pretty good authority
that he had been told that members who
stood high in the order did not want the re-
ports published. He stated in this letter
that if Powderly sanctioned such course
his name deserved to go down in obIoquy
and the order be scattered to the four winds
of heaven. The letter closed with this SEN
tenee: "Should you close your eyes to this
1 will have no more sympathy with you or
the order.
Under date of March B, 1888, Master
Workman Powderly replied, stating that he
was not aware that the reports of the COM
mittee had not been looked after, nor did he
know that any member who stood high in
the order did not want them published.
Master Workman Powderly further stated:
Neither by my silence nor in anyway does my
name deserve to go down in obloquy and the
order be scattered to the four winds of the
heavens. Now, since you have put the matter
SO strongly ask you to give me your authority
for stating that members who stand high in the
order do not want them pu blished- This ask
under the seal of the General Master Work
man.
Callaghan replied to Master Workman
Powderly in letter dated March 5, 1888,
stating that he would see him in much
hotter place and the order on top of him
before he would give under the seal of
secrecy which was already public property.
He further charged Mr.. Powderly. after
having appointed the committee, with dere-
LECTION of duty in not having said committee
report. He closed by stating that he was
speaking as a citizen and that his country
was dearer to him than the order which was
falling to pieces with rottenness and corr
ruption.
