HALIFAX, Oct. 3.-Discussing the
Boston Herald's article on the effect of
the Mckinley bill in Europe, the Hall
fax Herald will say tomorrow: What
ever other countries may do, we con-
ceive it to be almost imperative on
Great Britain to take decided action in
the matter. The Mckinley bill has
been passed with the avowed purpose
of coercing Canada into severing her
connection with the British empire,
and becoming part of the United
States. 1t is therefore, in its nature, an
act of war on the British empire, to
bring about-its dismemberment. Will
Great Britain 60 on affording her enc
mics the same trade facilities in her
ports she accords her own child
ren? The case for discrimination
against the United States. in view of the
policy they have adopted, is too strong
to be successfully resisted. The empire
cannot afford to stand inactive while a
commercial war is waged against any OF
it's ports; more especially when the
avowed object of that war is to accom-
plish the humiliation and dismember-
ment of the empire itself,

The Capital Fight in Oklahoma Becom-
ing Intense.
GUTHRIE, OF. Oct. 3--Excitemento over
the capital location was continued to-
day. After the demonstrations against
Messrs. Daniels, Perry and Nesbit
last evening had subsided, S. R..
Mitchell, city attorney OF Oklahoma City,
who CHANGED to be in town, sent this
telegram to one of his friends at home !:
"Your representatives were mobbed on
the street today. Send 100 armed men,"
The armed men arrived this morning
and were among the first to secureiseats
of advantage in the hall of the lower
house. Fully as many friends of the
Guthrie measure, equally strongly
armed, were also present. Their pres
ence caused intense feeling, and it would
have taken but the slightest outbreak to
have caused serious trouble. Speaker
Daniels was too i'll, suffering from ner-
vious exhaustion caused by the exciting
scenes ofyestelday, to preside As soon
as the house was called to order, Repre-
sentative Torrill introduced resolution
calling attention to the presence OF armed
men in the chamber, declaring their
presence undesirable and directing the
sergeant-at-arms to eject all spectators,
newspaper men excepted. The
resolution was voted down, 20 to 80.
Considering the probability of repe-
tition of yesterdays riotous demon
stration, it was deemed advisable to
postpone until tomorrow further action
on the capital question. The speaker
has prepared resolution which will be
introduced tomorrow, providing for the
recall OF the bill from the senate. When
this resolution is presented, lively
time is expected.

SCsANToN, Pa, Oct. 3.--The sensation
al breach of promise case OF Miss Annie
Husaboe against Rev. Peter Roberts, Of
the Plymouth Congregational church,
ended today with verdict of $1,000 for
the woman. The case has created a
tremendous stir here for a long time
past. Roberts is graduate of Yale,
and while at New Haven seduced the
girl and then connived at criminal
operation. He promised to marry
her, but while she was ill, fed
to Wales. The girl followed him.
He again promised to marry
her, and they came back to America, but
after he secured a pastorate here, abso-
lutely refused to carry out his promise.
Roberts attorney made overtures for a
settlement, and once proffered 81 900,
but the girl would not accept. While
the negotiations were in progress, Rob-
erts married most estimable lady Of
this place. Finally the girl brought suit
which resulted as above. The deacons
of Roberts church have been upholding
him in the matter for a long time, but
it is thought he will now be compelled
to get out. The evidence against him
vas very damaging, and it is said Rob-
rts has been deceiving his counsel, as
we'll as the women and church, for his
counsel presented no testimony in de-
tense.

THE COAL FAMINE.



SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. ga represen-
tative of the firm of J. d. Spreckels &
Co. today said the strikes in the Austria
liam coal mines continue with unabated
force, and there are no indications at
present of speedy settlement of the
labor troubles. There are five ships
from that country now on the way to
this port, carrying $4,000 tons. When
the last one arrives no more coal will be
received from the colonies for five
months. Australian fue! is now quoted
at $10.50 per ton for cargo lots, and it is
believed the retail price will soon ad-
vance to $14 or SIG per ton. Spreckels &
Co. consider the outlook for household
consumers during the coming winter an
very unfavorable.
Captain Taylor, of the Oregon Navi-
CATION company, said: II think the
outlook for household consumers is
good. Some of the northern mines are
doing better, and with heavier force
at work will turn out more coal. Our
company is ALWAYS short and could not
be regarded as criterion by which to
jndge the general market. Our yards
are cleaned out as quickly as the ships
arrive, and when our last cargoes came
in, we raised the price of clean coal from
So to 81 per ton."
H. D. Chandler. who owns mire in
the Wellington district, said: Gun
output is increasing, and don't antici-
pate hard winter. The strikes in the
other Wellington mines will soon be
settled. The main cause for shortage
in the market, is the cutting into
domestic trade by those who have pre-
viously used Australian coal'
At the office of the Oregon Improve
ment company, theagents for a Seat
tie coal official said: "We raised the
price 81 per ton the first of this month.
We are so short that when customer
orders 100 tons we furnish him with. ten
tons. Our mines are putting out as
much coal as ever. between $4,000 and
1900 tons per month, but none Of it re-
mains in our yards"
