ScorrDAlE, Pa, May l9.-The miners
Of the region demonstrated their inten-
ton to remain out in moro than one
way to-day. Every effort was made by
operators to force the men in conven-
lion to-day to vote to return to work,
but the work Of the leaders in an op-
opposite direction was too powerful, and
they voted to remain out. Every dis
tict in the region was represented, and
each delegate is supposed to have voted
the sentiment OF his own district. After
astomy session resolution was pre-
scnted and unanimously adopted, the
convention pledging itself to stand by
the wage committee in whatever it did
whether they settle the strike by arbi-
tration, conference, or compromise.
This action means the strike is to be
fought out on the old lines; that the
companies may import as many men rs
they choose and that the remarkably
firm strikers of this most remarkable
strike will remain out until advised to
return by their leaders.
Several riots occurred this evening,

through the shoulder.

New York, May 19.-An alarm of fire

Edison Electric Light Company's works.
In short while Capt. Thomas Kehney,
with tiremen Paul Bruny, James Gun

and others entered the cellar with a
hose. While they were at work, fly
ing spark exploded a barrel Of gaso-
line with terrific results. The fremen
were scattered in all directions and cut,
bruised and burned. Captain Kenney
was knocked senseless and the others
partially stunned. All ofthe seven who
entered the place were very badly in
iured, Capt. Kenney being the worst in
iured. His face and hands arms were
blistered and gashed in several places.
The other tiremen were soon able to re-
port for duty. The fire was caused by

Arranging for the Beginning of the Ami.
yerSarles- Meetings Yesterday.
CINo1SNAT1, o., May 19.-The Baptists
to-day were occupied with preliminary
arrangements for the real anniversaries
which arc looked forward to with SO
much interest by the members Of that
denomination. The first meeting is the
Fifty.ninth anniversary OF the Baptist
Home Mission Society. To-day the
Woman's Home Mission Society contin-
ued, the meeting giving much attention
to the training school. Quite q number
ofsuggestions Of q business nature tend
ing to remedy faults in methods were
made and adopted. Mrs. Montgomery,
OF Rochester, speaking on organization,
said that OF the twenty-four hundred
branches. there were onlyfour hundred
of them children's branches. She attri-
buted this largely to the mournful, pes
simistic nature of many Of the meetings
and the lack Of variety. The committee
on publication suggested the need of a
chifdren's paper. At night papers were
read on mission work in the West and
in the South.
