resolution calling on President Mckinley to
use his good offices in the settlement of the
coal miners strike. The resolution adVo-
Gates arbitration on a true uniformity basis
and urges the President TO act promptly in
the matter before the strike develops into
an industrial war that threatens to violate
the public peace and seriously inerfere with
the business interests of this community.
Some new features will likely be intro
duced into the miners struggle within the
next two days, but the leaders are main
tanning the greatest secrecy regarding their
movements. 1t is believed they contemplate
calling on the railway organizations for
assistance. Secretary Warner gave out in
formation to-day that a meeting Of railway
employees was held here yesterday and the
situation of the miners strike thoroughly
discussed. Resolutions were adopted pledg-
ing support to the strikers and each mem-
Der was assessed 81 for the strike fund Mr..
Warner refused to d1vulge the name OF the
railroad employing the men, stating that
it might lead to an investigation and the
discharge of the men. From another source
il was reported to be a meeting OF the con-
ductors and brakemen OF the roads CENTER
ing in Pittsburg. 1t was claimed that the
action taken was at the suggestion of the
national officials of the Railway Irainmen =
Union.

coke region, and efforts Will be made to
bring out all the men at mines where the

the movement, but Cameron Miller commu-
nicated with them and they agreed to lay
down their tools.
General John Little of the Ohio State
Board Of Arbitration, and w. Z. De Armitt,
of the New York and Cleveland Gas Coal

INTERSTATE DRILLS.
ThurstOn Rifles, of Omaha, Were a
Trifie Careless.

sAN ANTONIO, Tex. July 1s-The
weather was good and the attendance was
large at the interstate drill to-day. The
championship contest was opened by the
Thurston Rifles, of Omaha, who drilled this
afternoon. They put up a fine drill, though
the impression is that they stand but little
chance of winning first prize. The COM
pany step was a tri1ie slow and the file
oloBers We're a little careless. Early in the
drill Captain Foye and the judges held a
consultation over the programme while the
company waited and there is much specula-
ton as to the cause and a rumor is cur
rent that the captain misinterpreted the
programme. After the Thurston drill the
Morton Cadets were made favorites in the
betting at TO . The Dallas Zouaves fol-
lowed the Thurstons on the field and put
up q splendid drill. though the Neeley
Zouaves are still favorites. The judges to-
day decided TO hand the programme TO the
captains five minutes before their com
panies were 10 drill and will not allow
either officers or privates OF competing
companies to witness the drill Of rival COM
Danies.

One of the heavy expenses of the Detroit company. at Morenci, has been water. It has taken water from the river below Clifton aud this required the maintenance of heavy and ex- pensive pumping plant. Professor Douglass thinks that the water from Eagle creek can be piped into the town and he has surveyors now out investi- gating the matter. It will be much cheaper to maintain pipe line than the pumping plant. - Lordsburg Liberal.

DID NOT TALK COMPROMISE.
MAYOR MELDRIM AND MIR. DIXON
DISCUSSED OTHER SUBJECTS.

Mr.. Dixon Says That His Call TO At
Ianta by Mayor MeIdrim to COnsid-
err "Matters Pertaining to the
Water Commission" Had No Bear
ing on the Commission Fight.
Mr.. James NJ. Dixon, who went up to
Atlanta Tuesday night, for the supposed
purpose Of meeting Mayor Meldrim at the
latter's request to effecting a compromise
on the city commission bills, returned yes
terday morning, having spent one day in
Atlanta.
Much to the surprise of every one who
was aware that he had gone to Atlanta at
Mayor Meldrim's request, Mr.. Dixon de-
MED positively that his interview had any
connection with the commission fight. They
did not discuss compromise at all, he said.
When seen by Morning News reporter,
Mr.. Dixon said:
II went to Atlanta at the request of
Mayor Meldrim. 1 received a telegram
from him Monday night requesting me 10
come to Atlanta to consult on matters
relating to the water commission. l had
gone to meeting of the directors of the
yacht club and did not receive the tele-
gram until too late to take the night
train, and so wired Mayor Meldrim. Tues
day l had business that compelled me to
remain in the city, but wired the mayor
that 1 would leave for Atlanta that night,
which l did, accompanied by Supt. Loft
ton. Mr.. Lotion was not telegraphed for
by Mayor Meldrim, but went at my re-
quest. L thought If matters pertaining
to the water works were to be discussed,
information might be desired which Mr..
Lotion might be better be able to give
than myself. 1 met Mayor Meldrim Wed
nesday. Our interview was pure
ly upon matters relating to the
water department and the city
which do not concern the public at pres
ent, and had no reference whatever to the
political situation. The subject of COM
promise was not mentioned"

Club" continued Mr.. Dixon. land never
have been. had no authority whatever
to undertake a political compromise in be-
half. of anybody
Mr.. Dixon said that Mayor Meldrim's
telegram was something of a surprise to
him He did not know what was wanted
when he left Savannah This was the rea-
son he had Mr.. Lotion accompany him.
Mr.. Lotion did not return with Mr.. Dix
on. Mr. Lotion saw Mayor Meldrim We'd
nesday, Mr.. Dixon said, and had an en-
gagement to meet him again yesterday
If Mayor Meldrim had any intention of
discussing politics with him, Mr..
Dixon said, he had abandoned
the idea when the meeting oc-
CURED. The commission fight was
mentioned incidentally, he said, but moth
ing of Importance was said on either side.
What the important matters relating to
the water department, which resulted in
his call to Atlanta, We're Mr.. Dixon de-
clined to say. He met Solicitor General
Osborne in Atlanta and the latter is con-
fident that the commission bills will be de-
feated with ease, even if they are not kill
ed in the committee.

ROADS WILL COOPERATE.
Probability of Holiday Excursions
Being Run.

The railroads, as a unit, exphess their
willingness to cooperate with the mer-
chants of Savannah in bringing crowds to
the city during the holidays and it is al
together probable that all arrangements
will be made at the contemplated meet
ing of the merchants association, to be
held within the next few days.
While it is considered almost too late to
undertake anything of the sort, yet there
are many merchants who favor a trades
parade or some such demonstration. 1t
was thought that by this method, better
entertainment could be given the visitors
and that it would also serve as an in
centive to out-of-town people, who might
come to the city during the holiday trade
season. This is deemed altogether imprac-
ticable by the majority of the merchants,
however, because of the lateness of the
season Most all the stores are now hav-
ing their busiest siege and the time that
would be required in attending committee
meetings and making the arrangements
for such a demonstration as the mer-
chants desired, would be too great an in
reference with business.
Col. b. w. Wrenn, passenger traffic
manager of the Plant system, when APP
preached about the matter, stated that he
sidering the matter of excursions for the
holidays. He said there was no doubt that
the roads would take the matter up with
the merchants, and put on the excursions
If satisfactory agreements could be made
Col. Wrenn said he was satisfied the
railroads entering Savannah are perfectly
willing to unite with the mercantile men in
promoting business activity and adding to
all commercial interests of the city 1t was
his opinion, however, that If the railroads
made reductions in rates, the merchants
should arrange for commensurate re-
duction in their prices, in order to induce
people to come here for their holiday
goods. The usual way Of proceeding in
such a matter he said, was for the mer-
chants association to determine upon their
plans, and then the interested roads would
consider any proposition that might be
suggested. He talked enthusiastically and
felt sure there would be no trouble in get
ting the support of the roads.
Mr.. E. H. Hinton, traffic manager of the
Central railroad, said the Central would
be willing to offer special rates under GER
tain circumstances. He thought howev-
er, that before this could be done there
would have to be some assurances that peo-
pie were to travel, or rather, that some in
ducement or attraction was made. He
thought military display or some such
event would be a good means of inducing
people to visit the city
The merchants meeting will be called at
once by the president, Mr.. b. H. Levy, at
which time means and ways will be thor
oughly discussed. All members of the as
socation are understood to be in thorough
accord with the idea and it is quite GER
tain that provisions of some kind will be
made.
