 Their condition is criticsl. SIX othefs were shocked.
 Col A. E. MoAndese, surReon-iD
 chief of the Pennsylvania National | Guard, and Col. A. L. Logan, quarter | master gensrsl, were in Turtle Greek
 today. I is said they were looking for | suitable site for camp ia case troops should be called out. Ool. McAndless
 refused to affirm or deny that he was in the district in connection with in quiries being made by the governor. At president there is absolutely no need
 of troops.
 President Dolsu announced that the next demonstration St Camp Dstermin- asion will take place Saturday evening. It will be record-bresker. All the strikers from Hon sstead and Breddock
 will be present. Plans are being made for the strikers march to Braddock and there meet the bands and march bach gathering up recruits along the route.
 In this way they expect to bring in an enormous crowd. At least four thou sand are expected from towns on the
 Monongahela. By the first of next week, when the strike leaders say they expect to have all the New York and Cleveland coon pauye' mines cl 3sed tight, the strikers ae Turtle Creek and Plum Creek and Sandy Creek will move on into Westmorelend field and locate camps st dffsrsnb mines there. All Westmorelsnd mines are running, and it is to stop putting oosl into the Pitts burg market from there that the move is contemplated. The manager of ths Westmorelaud Coal company states that the strikers will be treated ss tres passers. The Pennsylvania Gas Goal company will pursue the same tactics. There is an agreement between the Dearmitt and Westmoreland companies the former chips west only, and the latter east.

WOULD DO HARM.
Germany Must First Agree to the Proposition Before Meet
 ing Is Had.

NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-A special to tha Sanders who was permanent under Secretary and ranks next to Lord Salisbury in the foreign office had stat ed to World correspondents: "I do not believe the British Governments has submitted any proposition to the Amer icsn bi-metsllic envoys. ] have heard of meeting between President McKin- ley's commissioners and Lord Salisbury at the foreign office next week. There is 8 report that one will be held-I deem it untrue as most of the cabinet mem bers will be away. Lord Salisbury might come O London but I do not think he will serve." In connection with the grave doubts about any meet ing being held before September MT. Bsltour and the rest of the British government are firmly of the opinion that it would harm rather than help any effort to ssttle the monetary ques tion if any loffer was made by Great Britain bsfoFe official negotiations pri- vately conducted had proved that Eng land, France Germany and, the United States were prepared to sgree upon steps to effectively remonetizs silver and to retain the par of exchanges Should Germany tscitiy agree to a agreed upon by the three other nations then a meeting msy be held next week.

 Jealousy has been ihe cause of mar
 queer incidents and stories, and t alone seems to be sctustiug TucsoN
 in her attempt~to cry down PhosnIx
 and her climate, end at the same time try to give their own little villsge g boost.
 The residents not only go around pro-
 claiming like "The Great I Am," but
 they seem to have placed the Southern Pacific conductors on the "soothiDg list" for there is never day that passes and tell of the wonderful heat they are having in PLosnix-s'I28 in the shad e and almost suffocstipg; town dead !; nothing to go up there for. Come down ty Tucson, where we have cool climate by day and have to sleep bstwsen nap kins at night"
 Every word against Phoenix, and every word for Tucson. The advance ment and prosperity of our city will not be hampered by this procedure in the least. They sesm to havs forgotten that it is true Arizonan'e idea to bring to this Territory good, honest and in- dustrious citizens, and settle up, as fast as time will permit, ell the land, for one purpose og another. She should lend willing hand, as 8 true neighbor should, cad do all in her power to in duce I'm migration to this Territory. We thought Tucson too honest, too upright and had the Territory's interests more at heart than to try to defame the fair est city as yell ss the Capital in such 6 manner.
 A little study will show that the heat in Phoenix is not near what they are having in ali the other cities os the Uni ted States, science hes taught that 1O9 degrsss in the shade in Phoenix is not equal to that of the Eastern cities of 97 or 98, and look at the number of weeks the thermometer registered these fgurss in all of north and east, and then tel! us Phoenix is the hottest place to live. Tucson should at least show her better breeding if she possesses such thing. ARIz0NAN.
