Pittsburg. March S.-There is little

an compromises. About l,OOO men
have been granted their demands and
are at work. but this is the case only

work at - cents per ton or less.
A dispatch from Clarksburg, w. va,
states that the PittsbUrg district Off
cials are at work there trying to get
the miners to quit work in sympathy
with the strike and thus shut of a
source OF supply. Thus far they have
not met with success. and 1t is prob
ablethatthe miners OF this district Will
have to fight their battle alone.
AS predicted last night the Robbins
Company miners in the first pool quit
work to-day. although they were under
contract. and will likely lose the 10

Carrel the last of them just as she was
backing away to avoid danger from the
wreckage of the LOugfellOw.
Late in the afternoon portion of

COL. BENZ. WILSON
Expresses Himself in a FOrclOle Manner
About the Proposed Nicaragua Canal.

Col. Benjamin Wilson listened with
marked attention and apparent inter-
est to Governor MacCorkles lecture
Thursday night. He said yesterday in
answer to a question by reporter that
he enjoyed it very much, that it dem
onstrated in vigorous language and by
strong arguments the benefit the com
pletion of the Nicaragua Canal would
be to this country.
The subject was more interesting to
Col. Wilson because he had, as mem
ber of the Committee on Foreign AZ
fairs. considered it during two sessions
of Congress and voted for a charter
looking to the formation OF a company
to develop the enterprise. The subject
was discussed by number of distln-
guished gentlemen as 10 the feasibility
of the plan. its cost. ETC.. also the COM
merciai advantages it would give to the
world, and especially to the United
States. However, he had not before
heard the subject so elaborately dis
cussed with reference to its advantages
to this country, and especially the Ohio
and Mississippi Valleys.
He is in full accord with Governor
MacCorkle that this great national en-
terprise should be completed as speed
lily as possible and that it should be
under the domination of the United
States as far as can be under our
treaty with Nicaragua.
This will not impede the proposed
Lake Erie and Ohio River Canal but
will. on the contrary, create greater
demand. yea necessity, for the latter
enterprise. With these two improve
ments accomplished, the Ohio Valley
will soon become the most important
and one of the most wealthy localities
in the world.
