PENNsYLvAXIA's MINERS.
A Joint Convention of Men and Oper-
ators to he Held To-day.

Pittsburg, Pa, Dec Eighty repre-
sentatives of the miners employed in the
railroad mines in the Pittsburg district
met in convention in Pittsburg to-day
The meeting is preliminary to the joint
convention of the operators and miners
to be held tomorrow. The miners this
morning listened to detailed reports of
the situation in their respective localities
This afternoon they formulated plan of
action for to-morrow's conference with
their employers The failure of the uni
formity plan outlined at the last Joint
conference is due, it is said, to the re-
fusal of a few concerns to act with the
majority of operators in paying the min
ers living wages. This win probably be
effective in multiplying all the labor that
has been spent to secure peace and har-
mony in the coal trade. 1t is possible that
all the operators will be brought to the
support of the uniformity plan, but il
does not now appear So and the indica-
lions are that the strife between the
operators and their miners will. continue
The miners tomorrow will demand 70
cents a ton for 1896. There will undoubt-
edly be a fight over the question of a
higher rate at the joint convention Of OPP

LANGERMAN INNOCENT.
Barbara Aub Admits That Her Tes-
timOny Was False.

luD AhdA
timOny Was False.
New York, Dec. 2.-There- was a great
sensation in Part II of the court of gem
eral sessions this morning when Recor-
der Goff called Walter s. Langerman to
the bar for sentence.
Langerman was convicted on last Tues
day for rape in the first degree for Grim
inally assaulting Barbara Aub.
When Langerman was called TO the
bar this morning the recorder, instead OF
sentencing him to at least fifteen years,
as almost every one expected, startled
the throng of spectators by saying: Bar
bara Aub has admitted to me in an aft
davit that Langerman is innocent of the
charge of rape upon which he was con-
victed She also admits that her testi-
mony at the trial against this man was
entirely false. Langerman is therefore
discharged upon the charge of rape upon
his own recognzance He stands commit
ted, however, to the house OF detention
as a witness in probable proceedings
against Barbara Aub for perjury"
Langerman sobbed aloud as the re-
corder spoke. Barbara Aub was brought
into court a little later. The recorder
committed her to the city prison to await
the action of the grand jury. He said to
her: you have done more harm to the
law than you did to Langerman."

A telegram received yesterday by Mr..
A. L. Stokes of the Savannah Freight
Bureau from Capt d. G. Purse announced
that the interstate commerce commission
would hold a meeting in Savannah in
January TO hear complaints on freight
determinations. Capt. Purse also wired
that he had seen Commissioner L. r.
Farmer of the trunk line association in
regard to tourist rates for Savannah,
and that he would leave New York to-day
for Philadelphia to confer with the Off

tai increase in freight rates on fish from
Florida points, which Capt. Purse threat
ened to bring before the interstate COM
mission, was amicably adjusted before he
left Savannah for the north, the railroads
agreeing to restore the old rates. This
was done last Wednesday and was an
nounced in the Morning News at the time
For some unexplained reason, however
the railroads advanced the rate again the
next day to what it had been under the
new tariff. The high rate continued in
effect until yesterday, when the Savannah
fish dealers were notified by their Flori-
da agents that the old rates had been re
stored. The increase in rates which was
made by the railroads without warning
to the fish dealers, was amost 100 per cent
The credit for the restoration of the
old rates should be given to Capt Purse
and the Savannah freight bureau" said
Mr. George A. Hudson last night. The fish
dealers expect to recover from the rail
roads the excess in freight paid by them
over the old rates, while the new rates
were in force 1t is said that there was
quite a discussion over this question of
freight rates at the recent meeting of the
Plant system officials, and that they were
strongly in favor of maintaining the in
creased rates. but were unable to do so,
because President Duval of the Florida
Central and Peninsular railroad, who was
called into conference on the subject. posi-
lively declined to raise the rate on car load

point it seems, was not included in the
agreement for the increased rates made by

sILvERITE SENATORS.

gcther Fifteen.

Washington, Dec. "A conference of
senators favorable to free coinage of
silver was held this morning in the mar
bic room. There were present about if
teen senators, made up of republicans.
democrats and populists. Prominent
among these were Messrs. Teller. Stow
art. Call. Allen, Tillman and Mantle The
conference was called for the purpose Of
enabling those favoring silver to discuss
the subject in an informal way. No Ct
fort was made TO outline a formal pla1

1t was agreed that no point should be
waived. and that in a general manner
the silver question should be forced to
the front whenever opportunity present

ably be held later in the session.
There was some talk on the part of a
few of the more ardent silverites of at
tempting to reorganize the Senate on a
silver basis, but this was not taken Sc
riously 1t is not though probable that
such an attempt will be made. The sill

the capture OF the nnanCe committee, they

last congress. The republicans will enter

LIGHT on A FOOT BALL sQUABnLE

the University of Pennsylvania is I'M
willing to accept the result OF the game
without protests and explanations. 1t
happens also that charges of uniatrness,
purporting to emanate from Harvard,
have been preferred publicly against
Brooke upon her team. In the interest
of intercollegiate sport IT seems proper
to meet these criticisms by single Off
cial statement to the effect that neither
the university nor the athletic authorities
are in any way responsible for what has
of fact the referee and umpire were ac-
cepted by Pennsylvania, and she Is con-
tent to abide by their decisions without
even the appearance of casting imputa-
tions upon their integrity.
ION the other hand the question of
Brooke's eligibility was fully discussed
before the proper authorities at each uni
versity before the game was played and
was made the subject of correspondence
and conference. Pennsylvania S decision
that Brooke should take part in the game
was based upon his eligibility under the
rules of that institution and was volun-
tarily acquiesced in by the Harvard au-
thorities. In playing him Pennsylvania
broke no rule and violated no principle.
