BiMETALLIC MISSION A FAILURE
Americans Said to Have Made Little
Headway in Europe.

Americans Said to Have Made Little
Headway in Europe.
A dispatch to the New York World
from London says that the bimetallic
commission is one of absolute failure. The
general impression among those in po-
sition to lnow Is that the reports of sue
cess in France have been circulated i'm
order to reconcile the American public to
the expenditure of large sums of money
without result.
The principal Paris newspapers have
referred to the commission In terms
which, while conforming to the rules of
artificial Gallic courtesy, have been not
far from ridicule lie Temps calls at
tention to the fact that while France OBJ
jects to spending the money necessary to
improve her navy. the United States has
money enough to spend uselessly on n
commission intrusted with an impossible
mission and costing the taxpayers $780,
600.
NJ. Hanotaux himself is authority for
the statement that the mission absolutely
failed and could not be accomplished by
anyone. He speaks highly OF the mem
bers of the commission personally, but re-
fuses To take the bimetallic scheme ser-
ously. lie smiles at the statement that
France would stand shoulder to shoulder
with the United States in efforts to bring
about international bimetallism.

From Madruga upward of 100 deaths

a PLAGUE OF HEAT.
Recent Torrid Spell Has Been as Bad

Recent Torrid Spell Has Been as Bad
as n Visitation of Cholera.
| The heated term through which the
country has just passed has been as de-
structive of life as Il visitation of the
cholera or yellow fever might have been.
The features which have made it excep-
tional are the large extent of country
affected its long continuance without in
terrupti1n and the fact that the nights
have been almost as hot as the days. AL
most every summer the temperature gets
up into the nineties in some localities, and
may remain there for two or three days
with partial relief at night. In the re-
cent case the whole Mississippi valley
was affected and the high temperature
continued without interruption for more
than n week, and with very little relief at
night. These conditions combined to in
crease the number of fatalities OF these
there have been several hundred reported
in the news columns. Cincinnati alone
reports sixty deaths from sunstroke dur
ing seven days. But probably not more
than 10 per cent of the cases get into the
newspapers. The reports come only from
the cities and towns where there is tele-
graphic communication and a news re-
porter. There are hundreds of small
towns and villages which have made no
reports, and the rural districts have not
been heard from at all. Throughout
large extent of country harvesting has
been going on, and while farmers, as
class, are not rs liable to be prostrated
by heat as dwellers in cities, many of
them must have succumbed to the torrid
heat of the last week. The population of
the farming districts greatly outnumbers.
in the aggregate, that of the cities and
towns, and must have furnished it's pro-
portion of fatalities. TO all these must
be added the deaths of very aged persons
and of infants, which, though reported
under other causes, were due as directly
to the heat as if they had occurred from
sunstroke. So it is evident the total num-
Der of deaths attributable directly to the
heat must have amounted to many thou
sands. 1t was a yeritable plague of heat.

SPANISH JAPANESE ALLIANCE,
Meant to Carry Both Coasts of the
Union in Case of Hostilities.

Union in Case of HOstilities.
4 dispatch from Paris to n London
news agency says that inquiry at an
American embassy there has elected a
confirmation of the rumor that the Gov
ernments of Spain and Japan have ar
ranged aL offensive alliance against the
United States The terms of the under
standing, which is for the mutual protec-
ton of Cuba and Hawaii, provide that
in the event Of an active aggressive move
ment OH the part of the United States
tending toward interference in Cuban af-
fairs or persistence i'm the annexation of
the Hawaiian islands, both Spain and
Japan shall declare war simultaneously
against the United States, and shall make
hostile demonstrations along both the At
lantic and Pacific coast lines of that
country.
At Washington, little credence is plac-
ed in the statement that the Spanish and
Japanese Governments have entered into
an offensive alliance against the United
States for the mutual protection of Cuba
and Hawaii. Mr.. Day, the first assist
ant secretary, discredited the report and
regarded it as too improbable to discuss.
"The State Department has no informa-
tion concerning the reported alliance"
he said, "and i don't believe there is any
foundation for the statement that one
has been entered into" Both the Span
ish and Japanese ministers are away
from the city.

PEACE NOW in SIGHT.
STRIKE OF COAL MINERS MAY
SOON END.
Agreement Between Men and Opera.
tors Is Near-Basis of Settlement IL
Famous "Uniformity" Agreement
Strike May Be settled.

The end of the great strike of coal min
ers seems in sight. w. Il. De Armit,
president Of the New York and Cleveland
Gas Coal Company, which concern has
been freely blamed by rival operators as
responsible for all the mining troubles
of the last three years, has come to terms
with the arbitration commission. Conces-
sions have been made both by him and
unofficially by other operators. His fam
GUS uniformity" agreement has been in
dorsed by representatives OF the strikers,
and in turn he has recedcd from his posi-
tion demanding the signatures of 90 per
cent of the operators in order to make it
effective.
This agreement was approved mt the
conference in Pittshurg by President Pat
rick Dolan and Secretary William War
ner of the United Mine Workers of the
Pittsburg district They promised to so
hcit the interest Of the miners in the plan
and to Use every influence TO secure the
required number of signatures. A clause
will be Inserted in the agreement binding
the contracting parties to enforce it in
case it is found to be impossible to Sc
cure the Endorsement of 90 per cent of the
operators.
President NJ. ID. Ratchford of the Unit
ed Mine Workers was called to Pttsburg
from Columbus to confer with the local
officers, and it is freely predicted that the
result will be a general return to work in
the near future.
Under the terms of the agreement Mr..
DE Armit consents to sign Il contract
which will bring about condition of true
uniformity in the PittsburS district, ac-
cording to the plan formulated, but which
failed eighteen months ago. The con
tract provides that there shall be no COM
pany stores, honest weight, fair screens
and the removal of other evils long COM
planned OF by the miners.

an assessment of one-tenth Of a cent on

ators. This money will create a fund to
