One Hundred Miners out.

CEDAR RAPIDS. Ia, Feb 9l-One
hundred miners i'll the Gibson coal
mine at What Cheer have walked out
and work has been suspended pending
the settlement OF trouble between the
company and the check wcighman for
the miners. The miners have had
trouble for some time because, as they
claim, the company's weighman docks
too much from each ear of coal that
comes from the mine. The trouble
originated from the docking OF 200
pounds. The car was supposed to have
had sulphur and black jack in it. The
miners check weighman would not
consent to the docking. and when the
manager of the company refused to al
low the conpany's weighman to weigh
the coal a second time the 100 men
walked out and quit work.

THE PLATES WERE PIERCED.
An Interesting Test at the Indian Head
Brewing Grounds.

proving Grounds.
WASHINGTON, Sept 14.-There was
another interesting test at the Indian
Head proving ground yesterday of hard
ened armor piercing projectiles, which
shows that the Hsrveyized tompreing
process for plates is not long to continue
invaluable. The l7inch Carnegie
plate, which has developed such re-
markable resisting powers, WAS again
attacked, this timc by two shells made
by, the Midvale Steel Company, of Penn.
sylvania, with tho Hotter hardening
process, for which they have secured
the American rights.
The original Iloltz ar shells, purchased
from Europe by the naval ordnance on.
GERS some time ago, were found superior
to all others for testing Harveyized
plates, and the trial yesterday demon
stroted that the Midvale product is
equal, If not superior, to the European
made article.
Both shells were fired from ten inch
rifles with the maximum charge OF ex-
plosive, giving them q muzzled velocity
of 1000 feet per second. One shell was
somewhat spent and penetrated twelve
inches. but the other went into the
Harveyized steel to the depth of twenty
inches, at which point, had IL been filed
with explosive, it could have done in
estimatable damage to a ships interior.
A johnson cast-steel she'll. which was
OF the same lot as those designed for
overcoming the resist of the Harvey
lied armor and recently tested with in
conclusive results, yesterday forced it's
way twenty inches into the Same Carne-
gle plate, indicating that it ID proba-
bly, equal to the Holtzsr vsrie ty.

IMPROVEMENT CONTINUES
Bradstreet's Encouraging Re-
port of the Weeks Business.

NEW YORK. Sept. 14.-Bradstreet's
tomorrow will say: All the features
OF improvement in general trade re-
ported week ego arc retained, and
from number Of the more important
business centres still further gains are
reported. Commercial travellers from
Baltimore are making their second trip
to the South, and regard the business
prospects as exceptionally bright.
Transactions in wool at Boston have
been very heavy, one sale amounting to
1900 600 pounds. 1t is added that sew
eral new and, to American manufac
turers, hitherto unfamiliar varieties Of
foreign woods are being purchased with
Wow Of experimenting. Encourage
ment is gained from improved demand
for money at Savannah, Augusta and
New Orleans, due to increasing receipts
of cotton and demands for advances on
the crop.
The Southern pig iron market may be
guaged by sales ct Nashville, thus far
this month equal to the total sales dur
ing August Inquiries are received
from the North for heavy blocks of pig
iron.
Boston reports quite an improvement
in general staple lines, due to the heavy
reduction in country store stocks in pre-
ceding months. A. Philadelphia there
is better demand for cotton yarns, pc.
troleum, shoes aud drugs. No change
is reported in favorable business In Bal
timore. except that orders have in
creased from mining districts. dozen
OF the more important distributing
centres in Southern States report the
favorable conditions prevailing there
for several weeks, including a better
feeling among jobbers and other dealers,
improving collections at Q number of
points, and brighter outlook for dis
tribution in the near future.
These features specially characterize
Charleston, Atlanta, Jacksonville, Sa-
vannah, Birmingham, Memphis and
New Orleans. Chatham 1ga, however,
states that general trade is not quite as
good as week ago, and Galveston re.
ports falling off i'll the movement OF

THEY DID NOT TRY TO WIN.
Roanoke Gave Poor Exhibit

A LifeIess Game That Soon Disguised the
tpectators-Boyd's Poor Attempt at
Pitching-IIe Allowed the Opposing
Batters to Hit Him at IviIl-Last Game
of the Season To-day.

Having won enough games to assure
them of fifth place in the league race,
tho Roanoke baseball aggregation acted
yesterday as though they did not care
whether they occurred another victory
or not. The men played with q listless.
ness that soon Disguised the spectators
and many unfavo:able remarks about
the home team wero made
Boyd led the others in this respect.
For tho FIRST three inning, he pitched
winning ball but after that got fit of
sulks and merely tossed the sphere over
the plate allowing the opposing batters
to hit it at will. II Boyd has any hopes
OF making q SUCCESS in tho National
League he will have to learn to curb
his temper. Such actions az he was
guilty Of yesterday will not be tolerated
there.
There is little that can be said about
the game. Lynchburg batted the ball
hard and often while McKenna kept
Roanoke's hits we'll scattered Mccoy
and Elsey covered second base in ex-
cellent style and McHooveter again
did some good stick work Mccoy will
be in the box for Roanoke to- day and

the season with a victory. Following

Trouble Feared In Lexineton.
LEXINGTON, Ky, Sept. l4.-The great
est alarm has been caused by the report
from both the Owens and Breckinridpe
headquarters that hundreds OF men, Sc
cretly armed, will be at each polling
place In this city to morrow for the pur.
pose OF protecting their respective chsl.
lengers.it is announced that every voter
whose utilization with the Democratic
party Is not we'll established or who re-
fuses to pledge mis- support to the NOM
inee will be denied his ballot by the
Breckinridge election officers.
10 overcome the loss from this bold
move, the Ovens organizers declare
thelr intention to challenge every
breckinridge man who approaches the
polis. and thus, by delaying the cleo
tion' force their opponents to be fair.
Ihe result OF these counter purposes
will be to cause the most dangerous
confusion to morrow and there are tho
gravest fears OF riots in Lexington.
The mayor 20 day. by proclamation,
commanded all saloons to remain closed
during the progress of the primary, and
an extra force will be on duty at every
point where trouble is expected.
Injunction Against the breckenridge

FRANKFORT. Ky, Sept. IA tele-
gram received in this city to- night says
that Circuit Judge Cantwell has issued
an injunction against the officers OF the
Democratic party, restraining them
from compelling all Democratic voters
to support the Democratic nominee.
This is victory for the anti-Breckin-
ridge people. In this county the oath
will be issued as the Owen managers
consider 1t to be the best interests of
their candidate not to have an injunc.
tion issued.

the latter said that his trip across the

September 30
Referring to the recent election in the
State of Maine he said that he did not
consider the Republican victory as a
pronounced criticism Of the tariff legis-
lation of Congress. According to Mr..
Wilson some OF the Democrats of Maine
are temporarily angered at certain tariff
reductions, and particularly at the re-
duction of lumber. But, he added,
Names situation prevents that State
from being an index of the political cur
rents OF the United States.
Mr.. Wilson decidedly stated that
President Cleveland had no thoughts of
being candidate for the Presidency.
Messrs. Reed and Mckinley were, in
his opinion, candidates for the Republi.
can nomination, but he thought the Re.
publican party would probably select a
tariff conservative like Allison.

WICHITA, Sept. 14.-Judge John Will
liams, of the United States circuit court,
this morning rendered an important
decision in the case of the United States

rer of the defendant company to the
jurisdiction OF the court and to the power
Of the United States district attorney to
originate such case in court without

The charge is discrimination in

of other cities and the case was COM
menced by United States Attorney Adv
and has now been pressed to a success.

Perry
Judge Williams opinion is lengthy
one, the pith of 1t being that as the de-
murrer to the bill admits the statements
therein TO be true, for the purpose of
the argument the bill stated q cause of
action against the defendant showing a
discrimination against Wichita and also
that bill to enjoin could be filed by
the United States district attorney I'M

second, that United States courts had
jurisdiction over the subject matter.
and could act upon said bill. He there
