of Mineola. leader of the Knights of
Labor. This morning the whistle blew
at the regular hour of going to work, but
the new men failed to respond. There
seems to be the greatest determination on
both sides to make no compromise. The
coal company at Newcastle is
willing to employ the same
men that were at work previous
to the reduction and shut down, but
Colonel Hunter, since the shooting in the
mining camp on December II, 1888, has
said that he would not employ the same
men at any price at the Texas and Pa
cifc mines. The rangers are still there,
and order and quiet prevail.

Freezing and foggy weather encour-

serves of leading cereals exchanges have

is an improved retail inquiry. Three
cargoes of California wheat have been
sold, one cargo i3Ss Sd for 10 ,240 quar-

AT THE COAL MINES.
Efficient Men Cannot be Found to Take the
Strikers Places.

Special to the Gazette.
GORDON, FIX. Jan. The situation
Is very much mixed both at the Texas and
Pacific coal mines and Newcastle. The
miners at each place express themselves
as being determined to accept no reduce
tion in prices, and it seems that the
company have failed to get
practical miners to take their
places. The Mexieans that were emnloyed
by Colonel Hunter have refused to dig
coal. They are willing to work at any
thing they understand, but they know
nothing about coal mining. Colonel
Hunter has employed men in the East ut
different times, but on their arrival after
being waited on by the miners already
here they decide to return without going
TO work. Fifteen men were sent out TO
work yesterday, but they attended a mass
meeting ut the Knights of Labor han

and nothing was spared by the nus

repeated visits have been made to physi-
clans in nearly every part of the country
