or eight new buildings are in the course of
construction. One store building, to be oc-
cupied by Filter Brothers, and large addi-
tion to the Bloomfield house arc among the
best buildings. All of the buildings are
being put up in substantial way. The
town is full of land seekers and the hotels

Frequent rains have put the ground In eX-
cellent condition ana farmers are busy seed
ing and they say they have never had better
prospects for good crops.
A meeting of citizens and councilmen has
been held and committee appointed TO Sc
cure IA bonus of 81 900 to have the Bowhead

He proposes to move the mill here
for 81 900 and then bond the city for
81 900 more and put dewn an artesian well to

LIVELY Nv THE COKE REGIONS.
Numerous Mass setings Held
Wholesale EvictiDns Today.

Numerous Mass NJ etings Reid
Wholesale Evictions To-day.
SCoTTDALE, Pa, April l9.-Today was an
other lively day in the coke region. Numcr-
Gus mass meetings were held, and, preceding
the wholesale evictions which occur tomor-
row. they are taken with significance With
brass band to stir up their spirits n meeting
of several hundred strikers was held this
afternoon at the Summit plant where i'm
ported foreigners have been at work Every
effort was put forth TO get the Italians to at
tend, but without avail. Tonight there is
great activity all along the line. The coke
companies will make persistent efforts to re-
sumo more of their plants tomorrow, and the
labor leaders are out to a man in the hope OF
defeating the movement,
When the eviction movement is inaugu-
rated tomorrow it is expected that some OF
the distressing scenes of 1881 and 1856 will be
reenacted. That many families will resist
seems to be the general impression. 1t was
learned today that colored workmen would
be shipped into the region during the coming
week to take the strikers place. Imported
Italians and negroes will likely be the wea-
pons of the different companies to break the
strike and car loads of them are expected.
Tonight labor leaders say they hope Gov
ernor Pattison will come to the region, as in
tended, and make a rigid and searching in
vestigaton into affairs.

PREPARING TO STRlK r.
Indications the Iowa Miners Will
Walk Ont on May Day.

OTTUMwA, H., April 10. - Especial Tele-
gram to THE BEE. There Is every indica-
tion of general strike of tho coal miners in
this vicinity on May 1. The Chicago Bur-
lington s. Quincy and Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul roads have been quietly but none
the less assiduously putting IN use all the
coal-cars and empty box-cars for the purpose
of laying in a large supply of coal for their
summer use. A Burlington official here to-
day said that they were doing this In antci-
patton of strike of the miners which they
had positive advices would occur May L
with all the other miners Of the United
States. At Flagler the miners have
made demand for 70 cents per
bushcl, the usual summer wages
being 65 cents, and have threatened to strike
In case 1t is not acceded to. The Avery II
Chisholm miners are out and Whitebreast
officials look for strike in all their mines at
any time III the strike is enforced it will
throw 10, 900 men out of employment ana cut
of the output, which is over -four million tons
per year. Tho miners representatives say
that there will be no strike as the men in the
west will be kept in to support those who
strike in tho east. The mine operators, how
ever do not take much stock in this theory.
and declare that IL is advanced TO cover their
well promulgated scheme to make the strike
most effective.

FARMERS FEAR A FLOOD.
A Dam Above Denver Threatens Neigh
boring Ranchmen.

DENVER Colo, April 19.-Farmers living
along Cherry creek, above Denver, held an
indignation meeting in the Office OF the board
of public works here and exposed a startling
state of affairs. The Denver Water Storage
company has just finished reservoir thirtv-
five miles above the city to supply water to
an immense tract Of heretofore ard land, Of
which they have secured control. The dam
is Is feet high aud drains 300 square miles of
country. The capacity of the reservoir is
many millions of gallons and the trend of the
Cherry creek basin is such that if the dam
gave way the whole OF the enormous body of
water would be precipitated upon large
part of the city Of Denver, after tearing over
the homes Of hundreds of ranchmen.
The farmers claim that there is now forty
feet of water behind This dam, and that the
vast pressure has Already forced several
streams through it. They claim to have dug
down and found that the dam is built upon
quicksand, instead Of on bed rock, and that
the materials used are so poor that its erec-
tion was criminal.
The company denies the charge and fur
nishes statements showing that it expended
S459, 900 in doing the work we'll. The ques-
tion will probably be brought to the supreme
court Immediately, as the ranchmen are in a
state of terror and soine fear is felt in Den
yer. Should anything, 20 wrong the ensuing
catastrophe would rival that of Johnstown,
as the reservoir is 1000 feet above the city.

TEXAS CATTL p QDARANTIN E.
Western Cattlemen Want the Line Ex-
tended Farther South.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-An earnest eff
fort is making on the part of cattlemen from
the far west to have the Texas fever cattle
quarantine line established by the agricul-
tural department for the great cattle raising
states of Wyoming, Montana and Colorado
moved farther south and made to conform to
the quarantine line fixed upon by those states
for their own protection before the national
government quarantine line was estab-
lished. Senator Carey of Wyoming pre-
sented the matter fully to the agricultural
department, and it is probable that the mat
ter will be fixed as desired. The department
has communicated with Secretary Rusk on
the subject and the secretary thinks the de-
partment can so far modify its instructions
as to permit cattle to ) be shipped into the
states of Colorado, Wyoming and Colorado
from as far south as heretofore, provided
those states give satisfactory assurance that
no cattle shipped into them shall be sent out
of the states before December /. The effect
of the order of the agricultural department
moving further north the quarantine line
established by these states was to work a
serious hardship on large numbers of men
having cattle between the line decided on by
the national government and that which the
experience of the states named had found 10
be safe.

From the success in selling so far mis-

make it possible that not a cent OF interest
