100 miners went to work at Weir coal
shaft No. at Kirkwood this morning

Great Deal of Talk Yet Little
Accomplished.
Some Miners Return to Work, But
They Know Not An Hour When
They May Be Again Driven Out
AaRequest That the Militia Re-
main, as Further Serious Trouble
is More Than Probable.

Springfield, ILL.,, May 2S.-The confer
ence of mine operators of the Central
and Southern Illinois coal fields, and
members of the executive board of the
United Mine workers of Illinois, was
held in this city today. Operators rep
resenting about fifty properties were

United Mine Workers of America, in
addressing the operators, told them
that central and southern Illinois were
the greatest drawbacks to an adjust
ment of the national strike, and if an
the operators and miners in this field
that would place them on a competi-
tive basis with remainder of the coun-
try the strike would be settled.
An agreement, signed by nineteen
operators in the Peoria and Canon
fields, restoring wages to last years
scale, was announced by representa-
tives of these districts, who said it
would be put into effect as soon as the
men would return to work.
Representatives of the Pana and Con-
solidated companies mines refused to
meet the miners and the responsibility
for the cutting of prices below remu-
nerative figures was thrown upon them

PENNOYER AT 1T AGAIN.
His IronicaI Reply to Grand Army
Resolution.

Portland, Ore, May Ex-Governor
Pennoyer was advertised to address a
Populist meeting at Hood River on
Decoration Day. The Grand Army

''The resolution of your post was duly
received and considered. Although the
Saviour of mankind, while on earth, al

your post objects to any effort on
Decoration Day, such as the pulling out
of the pit of financial disaster the

EAsT-BOUND EMIGRANTs.
Western Passenger Association
Lines Reach an Agreement.

Western Passenger Associations
Lines Reach an Agreement.
Chicago, May 2S.-The western passen-
ger lines today reached an agreement on
the question of east-bound emigrant bust
ness, which has for so long a time been
troubling them.
The Union Pacific at the opening of
the meeting, submitted a resolution that
neither it nor any other lines pay any
commission to any emigrant agent in
New York. This means the Union Pacific
is willing to give up the contracts which
it has held with Peter O'DonnelI on east
bound business and puts it on the same
basis with reference to emigrant business
with the Western Passenger association
lines and the Atchison. The agreement
made today eXemptS the business to
North Pacific coast points, where the
Union Pacific is likely to meet the COM
petition Of the Canadian Pacific, but as
this in no way affects any other line,
| it was agreed to without debate. The
agreement says nothing about paying
commissions through any other agents
than those located in the First ward of
New York city and there is a general
feeling that this omission means the
early death of the agreement.
Traffic Manager White, of the Atchison,
has informed the meeting il anything was
done toward interfering with the traffic
! in his. line, by paying agents in San
Francisco or other places, that the At
Gibson would lose no time in making the
| fight from the Missouri river, and in this
position it will have the support of the
| Rock Island.
After the settlement of the emigrant
question, the matter of excursion rates
was taken up, and as everybody declared
! they had made no rates conflicting with
those of the association, it is likely that
| these rates will hold.
1t was decided that for the four large
meetings which are to be held in Denver
during the summer, that the fare should
be for the round trip, to Colorado COM
mon points. one fare, plus. So, and for
the meeting of the National Educational
society at Asbury Park, the rates from
all points in the territory of the Western
! Passenger association should be one fare,
plus 81 for the round trip.
| Similar action was taken on other large
meetings for the year.

LAeAYO IN LEAGUE WITH HIM,
How Wilson'S; Murderer Was Al
lowed to Escape.

Washington, May 2S.-The navy de-
partment today received a report, by
mail, from Captain Watson, of the San
Francisco. on the course of events at
Bluefelds up to May 49, In this report,
he describes the escape Of Aguello the
murderer of the American, William
Wilson, and makes it very clear that
Nicaragua Commissioner Lacayo, who
was responsible for his keeping. per-
mitted the murderer to do as he
pleases. and made not the faintest pre-
tense Of keeping him safely in prison.
Captain Watson does not refer to
the restoration to power Of Clarence,
the Mosquito chief and former governor
of Bluef1elds, and, therefore, it is as
sumed at the department that the re-
port that such a conspiracy was in
contemplation between the British Off
GERS, is based solely on the examination
of the Bluefields people.
