GRAFTON. W. VA, Oct S.-Hon. s D.
Elkins was here tonight on his way to
tho MorGantown meeting tomorrow,
when addresses will be made by him,
Hon. A. G. Dayton, George @. sturgiss
and others. Your correspondent asked
Mr.. Eikins about the reported 20 per
cont reduction in the wagcs Of the
miners employed by tho Davis Coal and
Coke Company, and was informed that
this report was mistake. Mr.. Elkins
made the unqualified declaration that
there had been no reduction whatever
in the wugcs paid any minor along the
lines OF tho West Virginia Central rail.
road. The only reduction that had
been made was 20 per cent cut on tho
salaries OF tho office force, which in
Cluded tho general manager, tho book
keepers and clerks. and did not affect
over dozen men. Owing 10 the great
decrease in the business Of the company
since tho passage OF the Wilson tariff
law there has beeu scarcely any work at
all for tho Office forco at Thomas and
Coketon, aud this cut was accordingly
made from their salaries alone, on mo-
ton OF the general manager.
Mr.. Elkius said that so far as the nero
price OF the wages puid them is in
volved, with them it ia question Of
getting any work to do at all. The re.
duction to tho miners has been reduc.
ton in work, owing TO tho continuously
diminishing business OF tho company
during the general depression in busi-
ness, aud especially in coal. For what
little coal has been mined the miners
have received tho usual rate OF wages.
Tho Coketon mine, whose output was
formerly a thousand tons day, Is now
scarcely averaging 200 tons day, with
no prospects Of Improvement Nine
lumber mills along the road are already
closed up and arc as silent as tho grave,
This is due to the fact that Canadian
spruce can DO sold cheaper in the east
ern markets since lumber was made
free. Mr.. Thompson, OF Davis, tho
largest mill owner in that section,
mikes this statement in letter.
Mr.. Elkins will speak in Wheeling
Thursday evening and will probably
then take up the matter Of wages along
tho West Virginia Central railroad aud
explain this question fully.

DuLurH, MIMI, Oct Ex-Governor
Mckinley left ST. Paul last night aud
reached Duluth early to-day. he was
accompanied from St. Paul by Chair.
man Nixby and Secretary Richardson,
OF tho Republican state committee, and
Mayor Ray 7. Lewis, Of Duluth. After
breakfast at the Kitchie Gammi Club
the governor visited the high school,
whsre be spoke briefly to twelve or
fifteen hundred students, and after
wards received callers at the spalding
Hotel.
The chilly air, which has come as an
introduction TO approaching winter, was
nositiyely keen at Duluth when Gov
ernor Mckinley stepped from the train
which brought him from St Paul But
there was warmth OF cordially among
the people that neutralized the rawness
of the autumnal blasts.
AT 1880 the governor was escorted to
the place Of speaking by number OF
G. A. Il. veterans.
Mayor Lewis presided at the meeting
and before presenting Governor McKin-
lev, introduced Mr.. Charles A. Towne,
Republican candidate for Congress, who
spoke briefly. The rising OF Mckinley
70 speak was signal for storm OF ap-
plause and cheers, which continued for
several minutes.
In his address Gov Mckinley re.
cited the effects "of the new tariff law"
on Minnesota lumbermen, as compared
with those under the law Of 1890. While
the latter was in effect common laborers
in lumber camps were paid from $50 to
$40 month; now they are glad to do
the same work for from sl2 to SIS.
Horse teamsters and cant hook men
got from $40 to SIS month, while now
the most paid is $50 a month. That is
the result OF free lumber, under which
Canadian competition is invited.
From here Governor Mckinley went
to West Superior, where he held another
large audience. During the course OF
his address he made reply to Mr.. Will
sons charge that he had garbled Mr..
Wilson's London speech, denying that
he had done so.

VIII Eat the Crow Maufuiiy.
NEw YoRK, Oct. S.-The state Demo-
cratic committee to-day is sending out a
letter written by ex.secretary W. G.
Whitney, dated at Roslyn, L. I. The
letter is addressed to Mr.. Hinkley, tho
state chairman.
Mr.. Whitney explains why he did
not accept either tho Craftsmanship or
membership on the state committee,
stating that it was not from an indispo-
sition TO assist in the campaign, but
from reasons purely private.
Mr.. Whitney said that ho might crit
icise in detail the manner in which tho
purity had during tho past year per-
formed tho trusts given to its keeping,
but the present was not the time for q
discussion OF differences.
Mr.. Whitney said that he would not
attempt to disguise the fact that there
is great deal OF dissatisfaction in tho
party ranks. He said that many con-
sldered the state organization manage
ment narrow and arbitrary. He did
not propose to quarrel with any ono
for manitesting this feeling, but be
wished to remind all that the policy OF
the Republican leaders had been even
more dictatoFial.
To those who were disposed to fear
the dominance Of Senator Hill in na-
tional politics, Mr.. Whitney said i:
"Neither Governor Hill nor any one
else will be able to secure two.thirds OF
the votes in the next national conven-
tion unless no stands clearly for the in
tellectual and moral Issues OF the party,
or has prc-cmiuent qualifications for
the performances OF his duty to both
the people and tho party"
