Special to the Register.
Pittsburg, Pa, March 1.-THE river
coal operators met to-day and sur
rendered to the strikers. They agree
to pay 29s cents per bushel in the firsa
and third, and 21s cents in the fourth
pool. This is the same as the SO
cents per ton rate.
The 5000 river miners on strike wila
go to work tomorrow The break
was caused by rise in the rivers
which brought scores of empty craft
that had to be filled, to the mines.
The railroad operators say when
these boats are loaded the river mine
owners will stop paying the rate.
Sixty railroad mine owners attended
the meeting to discuss the strike situ-
alton. Over fifty of them voted TO
continue the struggle.
1t was decided to hold no more con-
ferences with the strikers and the con-
ference committee was discharged.
Henry Floersheim wanted the asso-
citation to expel every operator who
gave in to the miners. The backslid-
ers were present and made satisfac-
tory explanation about contracts that
had to be filled.
Col. w. p Rend, of the Pan Handle
district had a scheme to hight the
New York & Cleveland and Pitts
burg & Chicago Gas Coal COmpa-
nies. These concerns, it is claimed,
are causing all the trouble between the
operators and miners. Nothing was
done.
The Youghioheny Coal Company
started No. mine TO get out coal for
the eastern market at the 61 cent rate.
The djggers at Essen No. /, who re-
fused to strike, are now out.
The Castle Shannon men also struck.
President Cairns is well pleased and
says 1000 miners will be added to
those already at work. He says these,
together with those who have had the
demand granted before, in both rail
and river mines. will make the num-
Der between $1,000 and $4,000 at work
cut of the 10000 in the district.

HARRY HARYWARD
Sentenced to Hang in Three MonthS-1he
Prisoner Hears the Sentence Without
IremOI.

Minneapolis. Mimi, March IL
Harry T. Hayward, convicted of the
murder of Catherine Cling, has three
months to live. Sentence was passed
on him by Judge Seagrave Smith to-
day after motion for an arrest Of
sentence by Mr.. Erwin had been de-
MED. Harry came into the court in
the same leisurely calm manner that
has characterized his demeanor all
through the trial and surveyed the
crowd coldly while the handouts were
being removed Judge Smith agreed
TO examine the grounds urged for
new trial on March %, and then passed
sentence. He said he had no doubt
whatever that the verdict was just
and righteous one, and while he did
not believe in capital punishment, it
was his painful duty to pass sentence
in accordance with the law.
The sentence of this court he
continued, is that YOU be taken to
the Hennepin county Jail and there
confined until. after a period of three
months. a time be fixed by the Gov
ernor of this State. YOU be taken to
the place of execution and hanged by
the neck until you are dead"
Harry listened calmly and sat down
without the slightest show of feeling.
Minneapolis has two more murder
cases.
Max Poigert. who was stabbed by
Paul Kleinschmidt last Friday night at
a birthday party given by their land
lady. died this morning. Klein
schmidt is under arrest. and will be
tried for murder. He claims to have
acted in self-defense.
The second murder occurred in
northeast Minneapolis to-day. AS
result of a long series of family quar-
reIs Nicholas Bodvin. boy of II, shot
his father. Peter Bodvin, twice through
the head. The boy claims that his
father attacked him, but circumstan-
tial evidence seems to show that the
bov approached from behind, struck
his father with some blunt instrument
and then shot him. After committing
the deed he gave himself up.

WARRANTS SWORN OUT.
AND ARRESTS MADE IN MAR
TINS FERRY.
Growing Out Of the Trouble at the
Buckeye Glass Factory-Two
Hearings Last Night.

The Buckeye trouble continues with
not much sign of abatement. Stones
and revolvers were the chief weapons
OF warfare Friday, Saturday and Sun
day. Now the recourse is law, and a
good share of that will probably be
dealt out to law-breakers on both
sides.
Ten warrants were sworn out yes
terday. Five of these were for non
union men, and five for the Flints.
The warrants for the non-union men
are George Gillispie, Bert Bucey, B..
Mounts, Peter Dunn and VIM. Evarts,
all charged with disorderly conduct
on Carlisle street last Saturday even
ing.
Those sworn out for the union men
charges Harry Kellar, Charles Rizor,
Harry Barrett, Edward Jones and Bert
Sapp with carrying concealed weap-
ons.
The hearing of John willard and
VIM. Brown, the two non-union men
who we've arrested Saturday on the
| charge of carrying concealed weapons,
was set for Friday morning at nine
o'clock.
From the above and the happenings
of last Friday evening, Saturday even
ing and Sunday morning it locke like
venturesome job for the non-union
men to vacate the glass house bar
racks and board out around the town,
as they intend doing. AT nights the
two special police who watch at the
Buckeye are constantly kept on the
go watching suspicious looking char
acters who make frequent visits in
the vicinity of the glass house. They
appear determined to allow no person
to loaf in the neighborhood.
Before Mayor Westwood Ed. Jones
had a hearing, charged with an as
sault upon Robert Dunn. He was
fined so and costs. Harry Kellar was
also fined $40 and costs for fiourishing
a revolver.

arteries. Matte then walked back

Columbus, O., March 1.-THE un-
usual spectacle of Court itself vio-
lating the law was TO be seen yesterday
here. The Shelton Box Company went
into receivers hands last week, and
is therefore under the control of the
Court. The proprietors are Seventh
Day Adventists, and have always op-
Grated their plant on Sunday, closing
on Saturday, according to the tenets of
the sect. The employees objected, but
were obliged to do as their employers
wished or quit. They supposed the
legal Sunday would be observed by the
receiver yesterday, but they were or
dered to work as usual. They will
probably bring the receiver into anoth-
er court as the result, and compel him
to observe the Sunday of the statutes.
