PETTIBONE MINE FIRE.
All the Mules Arc brought to the surface
In safety.


Wilkes Barre. Pa. JAN 3l.-The fire
in the Pettibone mine. caused by an ex-
plosion of gas yesterday. is now con-
fined to the old workings or chambers
i'm the mine. All the mules. thirty-four
in number. were brought to the surface
late this afternoon and preparations
will a. once be made to flood the pit
unless the fire can be reached with a
heavy force of water from the mine
hose. The spot where the flames are
raging is dangerous one, as there
have been numerous cave-ins there of
late.
The officials say that II they can re-
move the debris with safety by mid
night, they will bave full control of the
flames by tomorrow morning.
At II o'clock tonight three massive
pumps inside the facing of the mine
are forcing large volumes of water on
the burning coal and large gang of
men are fighting the flames. In spite
of all they are doing the fire has reached
the new workings and apears to be
gaining headway. The roof I'm a por-
ton of the old chambers Is falling in
large quantities. SO much so that IL Sc
riously interferes with the work of the
men. The miners injured yesterday
are all able to be about their homes
tonight with the exception of Inside
Foreman Phillips. who was burned
more seriously than any of the others.

New York. Jan. 3l.--President Palma
of the Cuban revoutiOnists, said today
that the report to the effect that Gen

AT the meeting reported to have taken
place at the Astor house yesterday, 1t
was said that President Palma had Of

THE hopes of the separatlsts will be
once more defeated, because telegrams
received from Madrid say that the con-
ference held between the United States
minister to Spain and the Spanish cab
met has been most satisfactory. 1t Is
to be hoped so because the insurgents
cannot pretend to have the rights that
are reserved to the cause of justice. or
at least to the cause of dignity and
honor The rebels are only lot of
criminals who burn, steal. rob and
murder. What do the negroes COM
prising the band under Maceo and the
rascas commanded by robbers like
Mirabel and Delgado understand about
patriotism and poetical ideas. If the
United States were to recognize such
people as belligerents, crime would be
legitimatlzed and the right to burn.

surd to think that the United States
would encourage such atrocities. but

Pittsburg. Pa, Jan. 3l.-The Leader
tonight will say: 1t Is alleged in well
informed circles and now first made
pubic by the Leader that the great
Standard Oil company is about to make
o grand coup d'etat. 1t Is a financial
transaction which involves as much
money as Is concerned In the proposed

twice the capitalization of the original
trust. and 50 much of the water stock.

those on the inside, will be open for

prices as high as the Standard brokers'
can put them.
The purchase of outstanding certih-
Gates of the Standard, there having
been an advance of $35 a share within
month, Is being carried on, 1t il
claimed, 20 facilitate the plans Of the
new organization and 10 help make Il

1t is not believed. as stated in the fnan-
cial wire reports on Monday last that
the advance in the stock Is due to. a
rumor Of coming dividend of scrip.

ARMENIAN RESOLUTIONS.
Tho President aud Ills Advisors no Not
See Their Way Clear TO Comply with the
Wishes Of Congress.


Wishes Of Congress.
Washington. Jan. 31-There Is reason
to believe that the request made In the
Armenian resolutions adopted by the
senate and house, that copy of these
resolutions be transmitted to the six
treaty powers of Europe, does not meet
with the favor of the administration.
The resolutions declare that ''it is an
imperative duty in the interest OF hu-
manity to express the earnest hope
that the European concert may speed
lily be given It's just effects in such
decisive measures as shall stay the
hand a fanaticism and lawless vio-
lence."
The president and the secretary of
state have obtained the views of sew
eral prominent persons on the propri-
ETY. of Transmitting such u request and
1t is said that the government Of the
United States will have exceeded its
international functions should the sug-
gestion of the senate and the house
be accedcd to. The question came up
at the cabinet meeting today and 1t is
understood that the president and his
advisors do not see their way clear to
comply with the wishes of congress in
the manner In which action Is asked.
The matter, however, Is said to be still
in allegiance.
