LIDDIE BRICE MISSING.
Beautiful Seventeen-Year-Old Girl
Strangely Disappears.

PITTSBURG, Sept. 9.-The little mining
town of Finleyville twenty miles from
Pittsburg, is agog over the remarkable dis
appearance of Miss Lidde Brice, beau
tiful girl seventeen years old. Since Satur-
day night searching parties have hunted
the countryside in vain. Miss Brices home
is at Montpelier Ind. She came to Finley
vile with Mrs. Lille Z. Rankin, also of
Montpelier, to visit Mrs Rankin's mother
Miss Brice is an orphan and heiress, and
had been living with the Rankins at Mont
pelier. Last Saturday the girl received a
letter which seemed to agitate her. She
went to her room, dressed herself in q black
silk shrtwaist and brown skirt, and went
out, without even putting on a collar That
was the last seen of her. A few hours later
a girl answering her description was seen
walking west along the railroad, through
Nenetia, one and a half miles westward of
Finleyville. Mrs. Rankin's husband, at
Montpelier, is q telegraph operator. Two
CeiVed call over the wire from Montpelier
The operator at the western end of the
wire asked If the FinleyVille operator
knew OF Miss Brice, and If So Had she
received the letter sent her from Montpelier
by John?''
Strange theories are afloat concerning the
girls disappearance. Mrs. Rankin is dis
tracted, as the girl was temporarily in her
care. Her guardian lives in Indiana. The
Rankins have lived at Montpelier four
years. Wheel hrgades have hunted about
Finleyvsle for miles. Mrs Rankin saws the
teTs, and that she did not have more than
- cents in cash when she left.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
CLINTON, Ind, Sept. 9.-Mr. d. s. Bo-
GLE superintendent of the Torrey Mining
Company, announces that the work of re-
constructing the dump destroyed by fire in
June is about completed and ready for the
resumption of work. He gives it as his ul-
timatum without any strike provisions that
the whistle will blow and the Torrey mine
will resume work next Monday. He says
his mine was not running when the strike
was declared and that lis men have no
grievance. He will give notice and all who
desire to resume work can do 50 and those
who do not will be forced to vacate the
company's houses. Mr.. Boyle has already
begun the work of ejectment and several of
the strikers who were recognized as leaders
have been ousted. The superintendent says
many of the old men have asked him for
work and in doing so announced their read
mess to desert the organization He says
that, If it is necessary he will import men
sufficient to run the mine to its full capac-
ity, which is about sixty cars a day. He
says he is giving no attention to the strike
ers shall interfere with the operation of
the mine so long as he can find men who
are willing to work at the price he pro-
poses to pay. The miners insist that out
of loyalty to the federation and their fam
lilies they will do all in their power to pre-
vent work at the Torrey mine until the
strike is settled, but they stoutly disclaim
any intention of violent Interference They
say they will be able to diSsuade the i'm

AGAINST CHILD LABOR.
Resolutions Adopted by the British
Trades Union Congress.

BIRMINGHAM, England, Sept 9.--The
Trades Union Congress to-day adopted
resolution recommending all societies ar
iliated with the congress to by all means
possible restrict or abolish overtime in their
respective trades The following resolution
was then passed: THAT this congress is
of opinion that the law as it relates to in
Limitations during strikes or lockouts is un-
fair and unjust, as it Furnishes by fines or
Imprisonment any worker guilty of assault
ing or preventing through fear another
worker from working. while allowing en-
ployers to blacklist workers or to discharge
or obtain the discharge of workers who may
have been on strike or locked out, thus in
timidating workers from pursuing their law
full employment" The parliamentary com
mittee of the congress was instructed to at
once move to extend the law in the requisite
direction Resolutions against child labor
were also introduced.
The employment of children in factories
gave rise to considerable discussion. The
National Union of Gas Workers and Gen
eral LabOrers introduced the following res
olution the subject:
Considering that the employment of chill
dren in factories and workshops and on
board river and canal craft and their con-
sequent exploitation by the capitalists is
injurious to the children unjust TO their
parents and a crime against the human
race; considering the infamous fact that
the children of the working class have not
the same opportunities of the classroom
and the playground as the children of the
capitalistic class; considering that in this
connection Great Britain is behind other
countries; considering that unhappy par
ents, under an unhappy system. are ac-
tually willing and even anxious to have
their children torn from school and hurled
into the factory-thls congress is of an
opinion that the time has come for Great
Britain to cease building it's empire on chill

SPANISH SPY AT WORK
MADE A SCIENTIFIC INVESTIGATION
OF OUR DEFENSES."
Incident that VIII Probably Result in
Speedy Punishment of n CastiI-
ian Naval officer.

Special 10 the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.--The Spanish
naval officer who has been going up and
down the Atlantic and gulf coasts for the
last three or four months making notes of
our defenses turned up in Washington to-
night. His identity was established some
days ago by the officials of the Navy De-
partment, and when he registered at the
Hotel Wellington here tonight as Lieut..
Sobral he at once became an object of in
terest. He shrank from observation and
endeavored to deny himself to callers, es-
pecially to those of the newspaper craft.
He found privacy impossible, however, and
was finally subjected to interviews. He de-
clined point blank to say anything and re-
tired early.
Premier Azcaragas is quoted in a cable
gram as saying that the examination made
by the Spanish officer (SobraD of our At
lantic coast defenses was d purely scien-
tihc investigation" and he would have
Americans believe that such a thing as
utilizing information thus obtained for the
military or naval advantage of Spain in
case of war with the United States never
occurred to him or the Madrid government

characteristic of guileless Castilian di-
plomacy.
1t took Lieutenant Sobral ten days to
make the journey from Charleston, S. c.
to Washington. He was detected early
last week making notes of the defenses at
that seaport, and the fact was reported to
the secretary of the navy. Steps were taken
instantly to put a stop to this irregular
business and inquiry was made of Minis
ter De LONE with a view of ascertaining
who was responsible for this grave impro-
priety. After much haggling De LONE con-
fessed that Lieutenant Sobral was connect
ed with the Spanish legation, and with
great reluctance he gave up the name of
the offending officer at the same time
making substantially the same defense as
that cabled from Madrid. Although there
is no law to prohibit an officer of the navy
of a foreign nation from making an investi-
cation such as Lieutenant Sobral has done,
still there is higher law, based on the
common-sense understanding of the pro-
prieties which should govern such cases.
1t is probable, therefore, that this incident
will cause the speedy departure of
Lieutenant Sobral from these shores, either
by the formal request of this government
or by a recall from Madrid. Lieutenant
Sobral will be under espionage during his
stay in Washington

Lively Time in nAnti-Spiritualist Meet
ing and $4,000 Challenge to
All Mediums.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
LEBANON Ind, Sept. 9.-The reports of
the presiding elders were submitted at this
mornings session of the Methodist confer
ence. All of the reports showed an excel
lent state of affairs, the financial condition
in each district being good in spite of the
hard times. A great deal of building has
been done, and there has been larger ex-
penditure of money for benevolent purposes
than ever. Rev. w. 2. McKensey proposed
that some action be taken for the incor-
pCration of the conference. The bishops
opposed hasty action on such an important
question. An effort was made TO have it
brought up tomorrow morning as special
business, but this failed. 1t was finally de-
cded after some debate to make it the
special order for Monday morning. The
board of stewards asked that they might
set apart one-fourth of the funds of the
entire proceedings for the annuity fund.
I his request was granted.
The consideration of the constitutional
question of representation in the General
Conference was made the special order for
tomorrow morning The statistical secre-
tary called for reports from some of the
ministers, and Bishop Walden made some
pretty sharp remarks concerning tardy
members. Rev. Samuel Beiler, vice chan
celor of the American University, at Wash
ington, was introduced and made a short
address in the interest of that institution.
DIR. c. H. Payne, of New York, also spoke
briefly of educational matters.
This afternoon was held the temperance
mass meeting. The De Pauw Quartet was
present and furnished music. DR.. w. ii.
Hickman was in charge. Five-minute talks
were made by S. w. Goss. U. j. Leazenby,
j. S. Hoagland, w. Fl. Wise and DR.. j. A.
Houser, of Indianapolis, whose subject was
Christ and the British Brewery.
Rev Parr of the Northern Indiana Con-
ference, was before the conference to-day
and asked that resolution be passed en-
powering the board of trustees of De Paw
University to Increase their number by
four The resolution was introduced and
passed. j. S. Harvey, of the Wesley Hos
pital of Chicago, was given hve minutes
time and made strong appeal for aid. he
