President Mcleod Points Out tho Advant-
age Of Pools In the Coal Business.
PHILADELPHIA. Nov 2s-The congressional
committee TO investigate the Reading railroad
combine met here at ii o'clock this morning in
Room % Of the post Office building.
President Mcleod Of the Reading said that
the meetings Of the coal agents have no in
fuence on the price Of coal. II the head Of the
Reading Railroad Company did not consider it
to the interests of his company to agree to the
price fixed by the coal sales agents II their
meeting he would not do SO.
In answer to query from Mr.. johnson MT.
Mcleod said that il there was no concert
of a6ion among the coal producers the market
would quickly become glutted and it would
only be a question OF short time when the
financially strong operators would drive the
weaker ones to the wall The result would be
the advancement of prices to higher rate than
they are now.
The Reading Coal Company had never, Mr..
Mcleod said. gotten a reasonable profit in the
market for its coal, and that is what it is
striving to do. Mr.. Mcleod explained
to the committee that the main object
Of the Reading Railroad Company was to pro
greatest demand it could for the same. Mr.. Nc
Leod said that the miuers of the Reading com
pany, as . body, we're receiving f600, 900 more
now than in 1891. whether they worked or not.
The next witness was f. P, Wilbur, presi-
dent Of the Lehigb Valley railroad. He
testified chat rates for anthracite coal
transportation we're higher than for mis-
more profit in moving the coal Like Mr..
Mcleod Mr.. Wilbur believed that the result of
lack of concert of action among coal producers
would be disastrous to small operators.

THEY "FIDDLED THE AIR"

Greggains and Costello Disappofnt Their
Hackers and Give Poor Fight.
New YORK, Nov. 29.-Msrtin Costello aud
Alex. Greggsins finished the eightieth round at
$50 o'clock this murning Of glove fight be-
fore the Coney Island Athletic Club for q purse
Of 81, 500 and neither man scored a victory.
The referee decided that the affair was 'no con-
test" and that the club should divide the purse
between the two men, and that all bets were
of.
1t was not fght that satisfied the specta-
tors who braved the elements last night The
oniookers thought it was . good deal on the
order of . six-day walking match.
The eightieth rouLd was ended at $50 and
so was the match. 1t cannot, perhaps, be said
that the fighters are to blame, for neither
wanted the small end Of the purse and they
were content to fiddle the air" for even money
Each got 1850. Greggains was admirably
handled bv Martin Murphy, Mike Cooney
Johnny Murphy and HOWE Hodgkins, and be-
hind Costello were Billy Delaney, Jimmy Car
roll Of Brooklyn, Joe Choynski and Tom Mark.

NARROW MARGIN IN CALIFORNIA

The Result Depends the Vote of the
Missing Precincts in San Francisco.
SAN Francisco, Nov. 29.-The official vote OF
all the counties in California. with the eAcep-
ton of San Francisco, give Harrison plurality
of 6,422. The returns from all but nine pre-
cincts in San Francisco give Cleveland q
plurality I'M this city and county
of 6.l12. number OF Irregularities in
the returns from the remaining precincts in
this city may delay the canvass for few days.
The figures given from outside counties are
based upon the average vote given for repub-
lican and democratic electors. The plurality is
80 narrow. and in view Of the fact that the vote
for electors varies, it is possible that when the
official vote has been completed upon individual
electors the elect oral vote will be divided be-
tween Harrison and Cleveland.

this morning that he was entirely satisfied with

the entire burden of tariff legislation. must

any further reduction OF the tariff. We are
practically down 10 the basis of a revenue

wool was made il would reduce the revenue
about SIS ZOO 600 and would carry the incomes
of the government below the point of actual

An Organization in Kansas That Proposes to
Seize Gold Mines.
WICHITA. KAN, Nov. 29-An organization
having for its object gaining possession Of and
operating the alleged gold mines in the
southwest portion Of the Comanche nation
has been formed, according to reports cur
rent here. and the Indians are said to
be excited because of the presence at the fields
of so-called hunting parties in suspicious
numbers. Sheriff Ault of this county said last
night that he was a member of the organize
ton.
The plan. it is said, is to enact law at the
shor. session Of Congress allowing settlers to
locate on mining claims under mining law. II
this fails there will be 5000 or so, 900 men
rushing pell-rnell into the gold regions. in the
hope that the government will have to allow
the stalking, as in the case Of Deadwood.

said that it appears IRON the report of Minister
Scruggs TO the State Department tina, nc legal
demand was usde upon the captain of the Phil

a verbal character, on the allegation that he
was "au enemy Of the government"
and no specific charge was made OF
violation by him Of the ordinary
laws Of Venezuela. No representations have
been made TO the legation which would lead to
the conclusion that the government of Venezu-
Ella felt aggrieved at the action OF the consul at

REV. DIR. SCOTT DYING.
The Shadow of Death Again Falls Upon
the White House.

The Shadow of Death Again Falls Upon
the White House.
This has been a sad day at the White House.
For the second time within few weeks the
shadow Of death hovers over the Executive
Mansion. Before the going down of today's
sun 1t is feared that the Presidents father-in-
law. DR.. Scott, viii have passed away.
In the gloom and gray Of the early morning
of the bleak November day the watchers by the
patients bedside perceived the change in his
condition. the beginning Of what is now thought
to be the end. About z o'clock his life APP
peared to hang by a thread and for few mo-
ments it was thought that the end had come
That remarkable vitality which has kept him
a hale and hearty man up to his ninety third year
asserted itself and he rallied, his pulse, which
for few moments had been almost indistin-
guishable, Again becoming perceptible to the
touch.
Thus he remained during the day until after
noon, when he began to sink slowly but unmis-
takably. The physician, DIR. Gardner, was in
and out Of the sick room at intervals during
the day aud told the family that the patient
dying.
DR.. Scott was unconscious, not recognizing
any one or being aware OF what was happening
around him. He could take no nourishment
and the rapidly dying spark of vitality was only
kept alive by stimulants hypodermically admin
istered.
The entire family of the White House were
President, Mrs. Mckee, Mrs. Russell Harrison,
Mrs. Dimmick, Mrs. Parker and Mr.. Russell
Harrison and Lieut.. Parker-each watching at
the bedsde.
At o'clock the mansion was closed to visi-
tors and tangible air Of sadness settled over
the place, rejecting in the faces Of the members
OF the official household.
DR.. Scott has proved a most remarkable
patient and has already lived much longer than
his family even hoped for. Notwithstanding
his ninety-three years he has enjoyed excep-
tionally good health up to the time of his last
sickness, and his mental vigor seemed to have
kept full pace with his physical soundness.
| On the 18th instant he was stricken
with cold, accompanied by q low con-
Stunning fever, and continued getting weaker
until Saturday last. when he rallied to such
an extent that the family were encour-
aged to believe he might recover. The inn
provement in his condition was, however, Of
abort duration, and the following evening he
had relapse, since which time he has been
steadily iosing ground, until now the spark Of
life u well nigh extinguished
HIS CONDITION. UNCHANGED.
The condition Of DR.. Scott at $40 pm. d
unchanged.
