AN IMPORTANT STATEMENT.
A Coke Operator Says an Advance In Prices

A Coke Operator Says Advance In Prices
and Wages is Mooted.
A coke operator, who was seen last even
ing on Fifth avenue, and asked as to the
secret meeting in the Hecla Coke Company's
Office, said:
was not at the conference myself: but
knew it was going to take place. As regards
the object l think the conference was called to
consider an advance in the price of coke. But,
of course, do not know whether that has been
done. / believe the strike about over. The
operators will probably make the men an offer
of larger increase in wages than 81 cents and
the men will most likely accept it. Anyhow,
something must be done, and it will be done
soon.

that in his Interpretation OF the role of

king eager for life, remorseless
toward enemies, afraid of the churches
curse. trembling at his physicians
touch, and yet withal instiIled with
homely philosophy and shrewd mother
wit that confounds his foes and protects
his throne, is one in which Mr.. Keene
has found a happy medium to express
talent which falls just out the pale of

attracted the interest of a good-siZed
audience. Harriet Blecher was nurse
in Mrs. Wheeler's family last winter,
and was suspected of having stolen
diamond ring worth about $3.50 or $500.
A complaint was made in the municipal
court, search warrant sworn out and
the trunk of the nurse, who Was then
residing at another place, was
searched. The nurse also claims
that Mrs. Wheeler Slandered her to
mutual acquaintance and she brings
this action for IS, 900 to mend her repu-
tation. In the testimony introduced
yesterday the plaintiffs attorney failed
to prove the vital allegations in the
complaint, and before introducing the
witnesses for the defense Mrs. Will
iamS' attorney moved for dismissal on
the ground that there was not sufficient
cause of action. Judge Hooker denied
the motion for the present. but stated to
the defendant that he was in con-
siderable doubt as to whether there was
cause Of action.
Mrs Wheeler. who is a refined and
sweet-faced little lady, quite well known
in South Minneapolis. then took the
stand in her avn behalf. Her former
nurse. a rather handsome, well-dressed
YOUNG NOUldIl, lTOLll HcT StdG Ill ISdI vi
her attorney, sat scOwling at her mean
while, now and then making grimaces
of apparent surprise. On the other side
of the table sat the other witnesses for
the defense, making an interesting
looking group. On the whole. the court
room, with serious Judge Hooker and a
fairly respectable audience, aside from
these interesting principals. made
scene that would fit well in a novel.
Mrs. Wheeler told her story simply,
with no apparent malice. She spoke of
family trouble which Harriet Beleher
had experienced with seeming pity. In
speaking of this. she said her nurse had
said at one time that she had been made
desperate by her hard experience and
often felt that when she saw thing she
wanted she would take it. She told,
too. how the nurse. in looking over her
rings one day. had found that this one
would just fit her. though the others
were too small. and had remarked upon
it. At first she had not suspected the
young lady, but was led to it by her
cook having asserted she had seen the
ring on the nurses finger. The ring
was taken from a jewel case during
Mrs. Wheeler's illness last winter and
has never been found. The remainder
OF the witnesses will testify this morn
ing and the trial conclude.
