what the Governors said.

INDIANAPOLIS, May 30.-To n PROPOSE
tion from Pittsburg that he should serve
on a board of arbitration with six other
governors TO settle the coal strike troubles,
Governor Matthews replied: If by mu-
tual agreement Of operators and miners
differences were submitted TO a board Of
arbitration composed Of governors Of the
six states you name, would cheerfully
serve / would be glad TO render all as
sistance in my power to a satisfactory set
tlcment Of differences.
COLUMBUS o., Mny 30.-Governor Nc
Kinlcy said, II would be glad TO do any
thing in my power TO bring the unfortu-
nate differences TO an end, but as neither
party to the controversy has requested me
TO arbitrate / cannot assume any func-
tions Of arbitration.
CHICAGO, May 30.-Governor Altgeld
said: Il would gladly do anything / can
to assist in settling the present strike
but inasmuch az the board would have no
power to compel anybody TO appear before
It and could not compel submission on the
part Of those unscrupulous operators who
prccipitated this strike by reducing wages
to the starvation point, and who are prof
iting by the present troubles, fear very
little could be accomplished, because hon
est operators who are ready to make any
fair arrangement could not compete with
those who refused 60 respect the decision

CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo, May 30.-The
deputies and strikers are still keeping at
safe distances from each other Both sides
are exerting every effort to increase their
numbers, the strikers using in some in
stances loaded winchosters as arguments.
The strikers become bolder and more inso-
lent every day All the smaller towns are
completely subjected, and some demon
stration has been made at Cripple Creek.
The strikers vastly outnumber the male
population and are heavily armed. They
have confscated nearly all the firearms
owned by individuals. Conscious alike Of
their own strength and of the weakness Of
the inhabitants. they conduct themselves
i'm an overbearng manner and exact con-
duct on the part of the inhabitants that is
but little short of the most abiect servili-
ty. A party entered Mound City and at
the point of winchcsters forced two union
men, who believe in the union, but not
in carrying arms and using them in viola
tion of law, together with a nonunion
man, to go to Bull Hill. The general inn
preston here is that this question can be
settled only by terrible conflict, and the
people anxiously await the end, whatever
IL may be.
The strikers now expect to be attacked
from three different points and have mass
ed their forces at Bull Hill. Two princi-
pal approaches have been undermined and
large quantities Of dynamite placed so that
| by means Of electricity the mines can bc
exploded from the fort.

prlven FROM n Train.

SALNEvuLE, o., May 3O-Whon the
$50 striking coal miners from here were
driven from a Cleveland and pittshurg
train by the sheriff Of jefferson county at
Wollsville, they marched TO Clark S tank,
midway between Yellow creek and this
village terorizing the residents On route.
They went into camp there, and when the
night express arrived the mob made a rush
and all succeeded IN getting aboard. The
railroad company, anticipating such a
move, had placed large force of deputies
on the train at Wollsville, who succeeded,
after a long struggle and after stopping
the train seven times inside of mile, in
driving all the strikers of who refused TO
pay fare Tho mob then made an unsuc-
cessful attempt to flag freight and final
" marched here. Excitement is at fever

PITTsBURG, May sO-There were 90
representatives present at the meeting Of
the Pittsburg coal operators, which was
called TO hear the report of the committee
of 8 which had been appointed to fornu-
late a plan OF settlement of the strike.
This committee had failed to agree on any
plan and asked that it be discharged. The
request was granted, and Immediately aft
erward Alex Dcmpster suggested that q
committee of 10 be appointed TO take the
place OF the discharged committee, but
with unlimited power to act The suggos-
tion was acted upon without much discus
sion, and a committee was selected.
The instructions given the committee
denote a general desire on the part of the
operators TO wind up the strike with all
possible haste and at best terms to be Sc
cured. The committee has full power Ia
act for the pittsburg operators and can
settle for the district 40 any price they
may see it,
This Is a decided change Of mind on the
part of the operators as expressed 40 the
Cleveland conference, and, taken together
with the favorable aspect of affairs in iii
nois seems TO indicate that the end Of tn,
great strike is near at hand.

BALTIMORE, May 30.-William H. Cor
man, president of the Cumberland Coal
company, brother Of the senator, says his
latest advices were that his brother was
resting easy having passed a comparative
ly peaceful night. He said, however, that
the senator was very sick man, and he
would not be surprised TO hear the worst
at any time. Ovcrwork, he says, Is the
cause of the senator's Illness.
1t has been known for some time that
the condition of Senator Gorman's health
has been causing grave alarm to his fami-
ly and intimate friends In addition to
the neuralgia, with which he has been suf-
fering for several years, nc has suffered
from some trouble with his kidneys. He
is also said to be subject to fits of nervous
ness which have brought on' frequent at
tacks Of insomnia, which latter have also
been aggravated by his old enemy, neural
gia.
In addition TO the above causes ever
since the Inauguration of Mr.. Cleveland
last year Senator German has been be.
sieged at all hours by crowds Of office seek
ers, who have literally worn him out.
That he is a very sick man is admitted by
all his closest friends From time TO time
he has consulted specialists, who have as
sured him that he must have a rest, or ht

Nearly everybody is in sreat danger just

The speaker was one Of the leading physi-
clans n New York
with the malaria in the afr and the danger
in the water" he continued, "people need to
exercise the greatest caution and care. Ihe
trouble with these things is that they come
unawares and are often unsuspected. The
germs Of malaria are drawn IN by every breath,
the seeds af di- ease are spread by each swallow
Of water
The doctor looked thoughtful for moment.

prevent these dangers and that is to be watch
fui Instead OF drinking iced water and other
things nll the while. and In place OF per-
mitiing hot and foul air TO spread malaria IN

check these things on the start.
There IS but one way that this can be done
ard that is hy the use OF some pure stlmulant
constantly or when the slightest feeling Of
sickness appeara. The only preparation which
has ever been known to certainly cOunteract
these troubles In time, Is that great, that
popular whiskey, DufTy's Pure Malt. II has

Tho laws of the order prevent our tax

however, we must enter the political field,
and to do this without dividing our
strength is not only delicate hut dam
gerous matter. Democrats, Republicans
and Populists are strong elements In our
order, and TO favor one as against another
or TO indorse the candidates of any one
party would only result In splitting us in
10 three iarring factions. Therefore In
order TO accomplish anything, much care
must be exercised and arguments advanced
so as not TO offend any and interest all
To a certain extent we have done this by
our action here during the last three days.
