NEW HAVEN AND NORTH CARO-.
 LIMA

An important project is now under way in which many New Haven peo- pie are interested, Rev. John C. Collins being the promoter. A tract of 4,500 acres of land has been purchased at Mountain Retreat, about fifteen miles from Asheyille, N. C., and within a few miles of the famous Biltmore. The property is to be laid out into several hundred building lots, with lakes, drives and every natural attraction, and Ar chitects Brown & Berger of this city have planned a hotel to be built there, The hotel will be of rustic architec- ture, of logs and field stone, 34x154 feet, two stories high, with thirty sleep ing rooms and fire places in each room; large office, dining room, etc. About 300 of the lots have already been sold to people in all parts of the country, who are to build cottages there. Among the New Haveners who have bought lots is pr. w. G. Alling, who proposes to erect a cottage uposl his purchase. The work of erecting the hotel has al- ready been begun.

mines there will resume Monday morning,

their places will he filled with outside
men. Some of the Dillonvale men are i'll
favor of returning to work, but the ma.
jority are opposed to such Il course. If
the company is in earnest in its intention
of bringing outside men, the miners Of
ficals predict trouble.
The placing of guards at some mines is
having Il disquicting influence and may
make trouble.
The contest between the representa-
tives of the labor organization and the
local interests throughout the region is
terrific. but the strikers seem to have the
best of it, About one half the men will
work tomorrow. On the Wheeling and
Lake Erie. in the eastern Ohio districts,
the operators have about given up hope
of getting men before the strike ends.
Some miners came down from Massil-

and went home. The United States mar

are doing detective work.
-Four West Virginia coal trains went
through today and were not molested.

New York. July 1S.-William A. Bell

books and rare jewelry at No. 1882 Wal

pensiye suite of rooms at the Plaza
hotel here, is under arrest at police head

dollars. The arrest was made on Satur

prisoner was remanded to the custody of
the Central office detectives.
A small portion of the jewery has been
recovered and pawn tickets have been
found for large portion of the remain

The police say Bellwood has confessed
as to his dealings with Marcus 4 Co..
but denies that he has swindled other
firms. Bellwood is a Frenchman of good
address and refined manners. He began
his dealings with Marcus Il Co.. about a
year ago. He often bought goods from
the firm on memorandum, and SO far as
the police know his dealings We're for Il
long. time legitimate. Bellwood spent
much of his time in this city, and first
until they arrived at the Plaza some
weeks ago. Recently Marcus e. Co.,

quently at the race tracks, where he was
reported to have been Il heavy loser. The
firm then determined to keep a close
watch in the event of the purchase of
more goods by this Philadelphia customer.
Last Friday Bellwood appeared at the
store of Marcus 4 Co., and called fol, Il
wanted for lady customer. He selected
one valued at $500 and left the store.
He was followed by an employe of the
firm and was seen to go into q BOwery
pawhshop, where he pledged piece of
jewelry believed to have been the neck
lace which he had just received in memo
randum.
The firm was informed of the transac-
ton and Mr.. Marcus then consulted with
the police. 1t was decided to arrest Bell
wood, and on Saturday he was taken into
custody on Broadway.
On his person was found the costly
necklace, together with bundle of pawn
tickets on which he had received $13,-

Co., and $6570 on jewelry which he
claimed to own himself. The total num-

Marcus goods.
Bellwood admitted his guilt as far as
the jewelry which he had received from
Marcus " Co.. was concerned, ana SAID
that his downfall was due to gambling
on the track. He stoutly maintained
that he swindled no other individual or

pearls, amethysts and crystals, valued at
$1,000: double finger ring and an an

no English. claimed that the jewelry is
her own private property.

, peaceable communities with chip on
their shoulders gave some cause for alarm,
and ordinarily would have caused re-
sort to violence. But our miners in this
instance, prohting by the experience of
the past, would neither cause trouble
themselves nor allow themselves to be-
come involved in trouble by the action of
others.
reports from some of the cities to the
effect that the coal supply is not short are
only intended to discourage the miners.
If the coal supply is not short why. are
prices advancing? Why is coal worth 81
Il ton and even 81 80 ton more than it
was two weeks ago? Why are railroads
coniiscating coal shipments? Why are
the shops and factories whose wheels are
put in motion by the labor of the miner
ceasing to operate? Why are operators
all over the state Offering their miners a
rate even higher than the one demanded
if they will only continue at work?
"The reason is patent to all: coal is
scarce Those who have it to sell get
fancy prices. and those who offer an ad-
vance, particularly in West Virginia and
portions of Illinois, for the purpose of
checking and defeating this movement.
and miners who do not know this will
realize it when the battle is over, if such
operators have their way.
1--WE have started in on this movement
realizing fully the Importance of network
before us and the responsibility resting
upon us, and after two weeks of suspen
sion, involving more than 100000 men,
we are well satisfied with the results. Only
those who are best acquainted with the
condition of the men have any idea of the
extent of the suspension. 1t has not
reached its full proportion. The coming
week will add 10000 to the idle column.

will ensure the future of every workman
in this wonderful country. This is what
is, as | understand, meant by reciprocity
and my earnest wish is that in such eX-
ample we in our country will find les
son and an incentive to do likewise
Mr.. Hitching's views were, for the
most part. seconded by Carlos Liz Kett
an extensive exporter of wool and hides,
from Argentina, but Mauro Fernandez,
former minister of finance of Costa Rica,
Central America made n strong plea Ill
favor of protection. He declared that
the question came down to contest be-
tween the necessity of the politician,
which is protection, and the aspiration
of the scientist-free trade.
''The United States is right to protect
her industries until she can walk alone
he exclaimed, "for in some political re-
spects she is still baby"
The meeting therupon resolved itself
into a debate between the free traders
and the protectiOnists of the party. Louis
A. Dillon of Ecuador told his hearers
that his country imported very much
more from the United States than they
exported to them. but the business men
of his country had found that they could
do better with Europe, where. they were
enabled to secure very much smaller
rates on freight.
Capt. j. Cordecia da Grac. engineer
and naval officer of Brazil. made an
other free trade argument, characterizing
the present tariff bill as a monstrosity.
Other addresses of a more general char
acter were made by other representa-
tives of the southern countries.
After the general discussion which fol-
lowed, the party went to Willow Grove,
where dinner was served.

Vote tn Strike Reconsidcrcd.

Huntington, w. Va, July 1S.-The
strike agitators have been busy in Flat
Top fields today, but have made hut lit
tie Roadway. Not over 800 men will quit
work there tomorrow morning. and this
number may he reduced one-half. All
the miners in Thackers' coal fields yes
terday afternoon, voted to quit work to-
morrow morning and held mass meet
ing this afternoon and reconsidered the
matter. and they will all return to work
as usual tomorrow.
1t is believed the miners at Dingess
will also change their action of yesterday
and return to work. The operators at
Elkhorn are working among their men,
and they hope to persuade them to re-
turn tomorrow. If they do it will then
be almost impossible for strike agitators
to induce miners in the Flat Top field
to quit work.
The situation on the Kanawaha re-
mains very much the same as yesterday.

that his influence would be greater than

work there admit that he must be

Deafness Can Not BE Cured

BY local applications, as they can rot

There is only one way to cure deafness

Deafness is caused by an infamed cOndi-

tachian tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or i'm

the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condi
