MUCH DEPENDS ON IT.
Strike One of the Most Serious in
Recent Years.


Pitsburg. July 4.-The coal miners
strike will be on tomorrow, for the
struggle OF higher wages in five states
depends upon the miners in the Pitts
burg district If they fail TO refrain
from working, the movement will be
failure.
Fully 100 mines were represented at
the miners convention on Saturday, by
55 delegates. This is a larger attendance
than there has been at any convention
since the great strike of 1894. Many
more miners came but having no ere
dentials, they could not gain admit
lance. The resolution adopted was
strong enough for the emergency. \
resolution was also adopted requesting
Governor Hastings 10 sign the weig hing
and coal commission bills passed by the
legislature and now before him. One
of the significant points Saturday was
the fact that no representatives were
present from the mines where iroaclad
contracts and signed agreements exist.
These mines include the first pool of F.
L. Robbins & Co, Borkland mine of the
Pan Handle Coal company; Snowden
& Gastonville mines of the Pittsburg
& Chicago Coal company, and the oak
Hill. Plum Creek and Sandy Creek
mines of the New York & Cleveland
Gas Coal company
These employ almost 5000 men, and
the indications are that if the men at
one of these mines refuse to quit, all the
diggers at the others will act accord
ingly.
\ strong effort is being made to get
the cooperation of the river miners in
the coming fight. If they work thew
can cut quite figure in supplying coal.
as the fuel for local points can all be
supplied bv water routes.
The operators are making no effort
to conciliate the miners. Not an oper-
ator can be found who Will say the
miners are entitled to what they de-
mand, CO cents ton. No effort will
be made to operate the mines, unless it
should be the river mines, hence no
trouble is anticipated.
Great apprehension is felt as to what
course the vast number of foreigners
viii take in the strike.
Many of these speak no English and
care less for the land of their adoption.
They do not conform to the customs of
the American-Speaking miner. and the
latter has very little influence ever
him.
One of the points made by the oper-
ators is that more mining COMPANIES
have gone into the hands of the sheriff
this year than during any year in the
history of the trade.
There are too many Mines said
Patrick Dolan, mot too many miners.
I. is the surplus of operators that
causes such suffering and low wages"
The officials Of the United Mine
Workers of the Pitsburg district held
a meeting today and heard reports
from various parts Of the district. Each
of these indicated that the men would
cult work. The question of SECURING
sustenarce for the vast army Of idle
men is the most serious question con-
fronting he officials.
The organization has no money in its
treasury. The miners have been unable
to save anything. and only those who
have little garden patches will be able

Friday morning, in the Denver and
Rio Grande yards at Malta, a 14-year-
old boy giving his name as Polk, while
stealing ride on a locomotive, fell IN

KANAB SCHEME.
During 1SS4-5-s the creek mining
along by Kanab washed out a great
gully that was half a hundred feet
deep. and Kanab was left high and
dry. Brush and rock dams for water
diversion proved of no permanent
avail, and the fruit trees and grape
vines began to die. IN 81 a new dam
and spill were made, and KaRab has
had no trouble of that sols since, but
it hasn't enough water. Neither has ii
any reservoir sites, with water to I'LL
them. But on the Sewer side Of the
mountain there is a body Of water
known as Duck lake. 1t has an outlet
that runs toward Assay creek but sinks
on the way. The Kanab people could
take Duck lake over the divide by dig
ging a 12-mile ditch, and that will no
doubt be done soon.

FREE BAPTIST.

The church was finely decorated with
large and beautiful display of flowers.
The sermon by the pastor Rev. G. {.
Waterman, was from Luke "a: 34, "The
Lord is risen indeed and hath appeared
unto Simon" The sermon was mainly
devoted to the presentation of some
historic proofs OF the resurrection Of the
Saviour, such as the change in the day
observed as Sunday, the modern mission
ary spirit which is the resultant of the
change wrought in the apostles by the
resurrection, and the ordinance of Chris
tian baptism by which the faith of the
believer in the resurrection is symbol
cally represented. The sermon closed
with brief summary of some of the
results of the resurrection.
AT the concert in the evening by the
Sunday School children the church was
crowded, chairs having to be brought in
to accommodate all. The programme
consisted of music and recitatious and
the little people did their work well.
Rev Mr.. Land gave brief and appro-
pirate talk at the close Of the concert.
