Unexpected Additions to the
Striking Miners Forces.
The Men Encouraged Over Gaining
Southern Illinois Miners.
West Virginia Men offered Scale Prices,
But Ordered Not 10 Work.

CoLuMpUs, Ohio, April 23.-President
John McBri'e of the United Mine Workers,
received reports from number of his lieu
tenants in the different coal fields, today,
the most important of which from Muir
physboro, the supposed key to the situs-
ton in Southern Illinois, which is solid. In
the Duquesne district every thing is favor
able, with 2600 men out. The leaders hsd
little hope of inducing Southern Illinois
miners to join the strike. and this is an I'M
expected addition to sirike forces.
Mr.. Mcbride reviscs the fgures as to the
number of miners out, today, as follows:
AL bams, 5000; Tennessee and kentucky,
5000; West Virginia, 2000; Indiana, 5000;
Ohio. 23,000; llloois, 2, 600; Pennsylva-
Dia, 90 900; lndi IN Territory, 2000; Mich.
igsn, 800; Iowa 1900.
Following is the substance of the news
given out st headquarters, today. Mary
land miners will holi a state convention to
determine whether they will join the strike
rs whole, Thursday of thi, week.
Southern Iowa miners are all out. and min
ers of the state will meet Alba, May 2, to
decide what action the state organic alton
will take. Indian Territory men are out
solid. Many miners are out in New river
and Kanawha river districts.
The miners will hold a convention at
Charleston, W. Va, tomorrow. to agree on
united action Miners of the Wheeling and
Moundville districts are offerea the wages
demanded by the scale, but were ordered
not to go to work until there is a general
settle ment of the strike. Indiana block
coal miners will join the strike May /.
There is danger that the piners in West
Virginia who have been offered the scale
wages, will accept and thus weaken the
strike.

OF

A well-known populist stated a few
days ago that the government had not
coined an ounce of silver in eighteen
months. This third party man, though
he was honest in his statement, told an
utter falsehood.
Right here in Durham there are lying
in the banks and resting in the pocket
books of citizens silver dollars, halves
and quarters coined within a month.
The minis are coming silver right along
today and have coined it every month
this year and coined every month of 1898.
This year there nave been coined $1,111,-
431 in silver dollars, So, 2G9, 1853 so in silver
half dollars, $1,248,313 in silver quarters
and $50, 045. so in silver dimes.
This is the official record of the gov
ernment and any citizen can verify it.
Then, why should populists wilfully
misrepresent these facts?
