THEIR PATIENCE EXHAUSTED,
And the Business interests Of Ishpem-
ing, Michigan, Have Had the Mill
tary Called Out to Prevent Strik-
ing Miners from Interfering With
the Operation Of TIE Mines,

Ishpeming, Mich, August 81
Patience has ceased to be a virtue, and
the business interests that have been
affected by the strike that has para
lyzed the chief industry of this region
for the past seven weeks have risen in
opposition. Learning that the strikers
would give forcible opposition to the
deputies who have been chosen to guard
the steam shovelers who are coming
from outside it was to-day decided to
call FOR troops. Seven companies of
State militia have been ordered out and
are moving toward Ishpeming tonight.
The news is gladly received by the
merchants and many of the working
men themselves, who have not the
courage to oppose the strikers. Four
crews Of shovelmen arrived by special
train and are quartered at the Lake
Angeline. Lake Superior and Cleveland
mines. The shOvels will be started
Monday morning. There will probably
be no opposition, as the strikers who
are conducting this movement, will not
be led to fight W the men now in COM
mand. a loss Of over $500 600 has been
caused thus far by the strike. There
was q large meeting of strikers in this
city to-day and much excitement was
shown, due to the news that the shov-
els would be started on Monday The
strikers have not vet heard that troops
have been called out

Chicago, August 31-The Times-Her7
aid will tomorrow print the following
in its news columns:
EX-Mayor Hopkins, of this city, ad-
vised the great railroad strike of 1894,
which ended in such disastrous loss Of
property and life. This assertion is
made by George w. Howard, vice pres
ident and ex-member of the Board Of
Directors of the American Railway
Union, and is confirmed by Eugene V.
Debs, president of the American Rail-
way Union. Mr. Howard said to-day.
Mayor Hopkins did advise Debs to
tie up the railroads, and there are wit
nesses to prove it. 1t is the truth, and
the ex-Mayor cannot deny it. | re-
member the meeting well. It happened
in this way:
The convention was in session in
Ulrichs Hall, land the question was
how to bring Pullman to terms. II
was some time previous to the ordering
of the strike against the railroads that
We received word that Mayor Hopkins
would like to see us.
"Debs and 1, of course, were willing
to meet the Mayor, and we met him in
the Sherman House. There were with
him his partner, Secord, and one or two
city officials and a newspaper reporter.
The other persons were Debs and my
self. We met in the lobby near the
clerks desk. IntroductiOns followed,
and then the prospective strike became
the subject l said:
Il believe I know how we can bring
Pullman to terms. l have thought 1t
out to my satisfaction. If we can STOP
work at his rel air shops we can even
tually stop the running of his cars
Within a short time car inspectors will
refuse to pass sleepers in need of re-
pairs. As the roads must have the
usual number, they will demand that
Pullman live up to the terms of his
contract. He will be unable to do so
and the roads will be only too glad to
get out from under his monopoly, and
he will have to do something.
Mr.. Secord spoke up, objecting to
my plan, and said the best thing was
to refuse to haul Pullman sleepers.
Mayor Hopkins then spoke up and
said:
That's right; tie them up, Debs, tie
them up. If you only get one or two
roads it will shut off the revenue and
bring the old man to arbitration.
what did Mr.. Debs say?"
"He had little to say, but he made
some remark to the effect that he be-
lieved the Mayor was right about the
best way to bring Pullman to some
agreement"

TAMATVE INCIDENT.
a Government Administers a
diff Dose to Captain Lavoisot.

tashington, d. c., August 31.-The
Navy Department to-day gave out the
following:
AS a sequel to the Castine-Tamatave
incident. concerning the landing of the
officers and the men, information has
just reached Washington that the
French authorities, with very credit
able promputude, sentenced Captain
Layoisot, because of his conduct in that
affair. to twenty days solitary confne-
ment in the military Jail there.
Ii is understood, furthermore, that he
returns to France with entire loss Of
all promotion; that is he remains sta
tionary on the army list, which makes
his punishment, personally, very
serious one.
If these statements are correct, it
will be seen that the French authorities
at Tamatave showed a just and proper
appreciation of the original incident.

MINERS ARE RESTLESS.
General Movement for Advance of Wages in Indiana, Illinois and Iowa May Crys-
 tallize in Strike.

Chicago. Oct. 1.-Dispatches from va rious points in Indiana, Illinois and Iowa indicate a general movement of ccal miners for an advance In wages. At Bra gil, Ind, yesterday the miners demand for 70 cents per ton was granted by the operators, notwithstanding the report is current that Ohio, Illinois and Pennsylva- mia operators would refuse the miners advance.
 At Springfield, H., meeting was held and resolutions adopted making de- mand upon the operators for an advance in the price of mining from 35 to 40 cents gross per ton, to take effect next Satur- day. Unless this demand is met general strike will take place next Monday. Twenty-one mines were represented at the meeting.
 At Mystic, Ia., the miners have refused to work longer than today at the present scale and it looks as if there might be an- other strike in the Centervile district. Fifteen hundred men are employed in that district.
 A dispatch from Boone, Ia., says all Of the mfnersin that county except some 400 at Frazer have struck for a raise of the scale to that of 1893, which was $1 per ton. Two months ago these miners signed an agreement to work for one year for 80 cents.

THAT DISTRICT ATTORNEYS MUDDLE,
Judge Noise Delivers Special Charge Grand
 Jury Sends for Attorney General -~-

New Orleans, Oct 1.--As indicated in last nights dispatch, the grand jury was in session today to hear Judge Fergu- sons special charge on the law as to whether or not the district attorney has the right to collect a fee for case nolle pressed. This is preliminary to a thor ough investigation by the grand jury of affairs of the district attorneys office.
 It has been charged that the district attorney has been in the habit of charg- ing fees for cases for which he has not prosecuted. The judge, after long con sutation with Judge Noise, the other judge of the criminal court, delivered somewhat lengthy charge to the grand jury, quoting the law on the subject, which Is perfectly plain, concluding his charge as follows:
 "I, therefore, charge that the district attorney has not the right to charge for fees in cases nolle prosecuted by him."
 The grand jury sent for Attorney-Gen- eral Cunningham, and it Is probable that in a day or two that gentleman will be in charge of the district attorneys office, and will conduct any prosecution of Dis trict Attorney Butler should the grand jury find it necessary to indict him.
