HIGHEST MOVEMENT or IT'S KIND.
"PeOpIe and the Press Are with US"
Says President RIntchford.

Columbus, Ohio, July President
Blatchford of the United Mine Workers
of America says OF the miners strike,
Juy 4:
"The exact date of the national sus
pension has been a matter OF specula
ton with newspapers for weeks past
We are very thankful for the friendly
mention which this movement has re-
ceived from every quarter With the
press and the public shoulder to Shout
der it is not a question should it take
place, but rather a question when shall
the movement for living wages be in
augurated. Independence day was chos-
en- as a day well BETTING our demand.
1t is the anniversary of our political in
dependence, let it also mark the begin
ming of an era of industrial freedom, and
as our revolutionary fathers freed them
selves from foreign rule, let the miners
of the country free themselves from the
domination of their oppressors. Our pres
ent suspension is not of our choice. 1t is
forced upon us by continuous reductions
in wages until the point is reached where
living by our industry is no longer pos
sible. Our miners everywhere throughout
the country are ready for it as a last re-
sort and there is no doubt that it will
be the biggest movement of its kind this
country has ever seen.
II am not fearful that the miners will
in any case violate the law. This will
be a peaceful contest, and violence
must not enter into it in any degree.
Public opinion is with us; kilograms aud
letters from men in all walks of life are
pouring in, indorsing our action. The
great body of the people are on our
side, and we mean to retain their support
by strict observance of law and order"

COAL MINERS STRIKE.
STARVING COAL MINERS IN PITTS
BURG DISTRICT STRIKE.
Believe Increased Demand for Coal
an Opportune Time to De-
mund Justice.

Pittsburg, July 5.-Industrial cults are
much excited over the developments III
the situation among several important
trades. On the verge of the declaration
of the coal miners of the Pittsburg dis
trict to take the lead in the general sus-
pension of the coal mining industry,
came the concession of the Tin Plate
Manufacturers Association to the Anal
gamated Association of Iron and Steel
Workers. The miners officials here say
that idleness will prevail in the major
ity of all the rail and river mines in the
Pittsburg district. They claim that the
struggle for higher wages will be of short
duration, and that by reason of the great
demand for coal, the late trade at this
season of the year, they will be granted
an advance before the operators lose large
contracts for future delivery OF coal. The
miners officials claim that conservative
estimate fixes the number of men who
will strike in Pennsylvania, West Vi-
ginia, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois at 20O,-
000. They hope to increase tins number
as the strike grows.
The tin plate workers are jubilant
over the concessions adopted by the
manufacturers. 1t is estimated that
5000 skilled workmen will resume Tues
day morning. Nearly all the tin plate
manufacturers in the Pittsburg district
have orders enough to keep their plants
running for the next two months.

General Coppinger, commanding the de-

Neb., July ,, in regard to the alleged In

ing the following interesting details:
Lieutenant Irwin, Fort Hall agent
wires from Haley (Idaho) that the re-
ports of Indian trouble at Camas prairie
have proved without foundation; tnat no
more than 40 Indians Lemhis and Sho-
saones), including women and children
are in that vicinity and have committed
no depredations; that he knows them to
will be needed
In view of the above information
from reliable officers on the spot, | have
revoked the order for the movement of
the Fort Robinson squadron to HALEY.
Lieutenant Colonel Randall will be at
the latter place today and assist in
strengthening out matters there. The
Lemhi agent wires he has been inform
ed that five of his Indians were, with
their families, absent from the reserva-
ton, and are supposed to be in the vi
cinity of Camas prairie, while passing
through deserted villages, entered a
house and tore Innings off the walls, and
may have committed other depredations.
He says he has sent the Indian police in
pursuit with instructions to have the In
dams return the stolen things at once
and to return the Indians to the agency
He fears no hostile demonstrations and
says these Indians will commit thefts
but are inoffensive. This seems to be the
basis for the complaints made to the
governor of Idaho.
