Quite novel an interesting sight
in the way of bicycle travelling was
seen on our streets last Wednesday,
says Utah exchange. 1t was a
family going around the world on
bicy ,les. There was tandem on
which sat the man, women and boy
about years old, and also blankets,
canteens, knapsacks and other camp
supplies. The weight Of this wheel
and bundles was about $50 pounds,
without the riders. A young man
riding another heavily loaded wheel

THE CUBAN QUESTION.
To be Discussed by President Mckinley
and General Lee

To be Discussed by President Mckinley
and General Lee.
WASHINGTON, Sept. l3.-President
Mckinley is expected to reach the
White House this evening. Almost
Immediately thereafter he will hold an
important conference with Consul Gen.
eral Lee.
So far as has been developed, the
presidents Cuban policy is far from
an aggressive one. Up to date it un-
douhtedtedly consists of tender to
Spain of good offices, coupled with an
intimation that the United States
woald be pleased to see autonomy on
the Canadian plan granted to Cuba at
once.
General Lee, say his friends, will
represent to the president that the in
surgents are now on top and will cer-
tainly achieve their own salvation
without assistance.
General Lee believes Spain has lost
the island beyond recovery. Under
the circumstances. the insurgents
would refuse autonomy without hesita-
tion, and they have already practically
achieved their independence. He will
inform the president that the insur-
gents have improved she rainy season
to equip themselves better than ever
before, and that Spain. on the other
hand, has suffered greatly from disease
and through frauds in the commfssary
and the lack OF closhes and food suit
able for the climate.

HAzELToN, Pa, Sept. 1.-THE
strike situation reached terrible
crisis on the outskirts of Latimer yes
! terday afternoon, when company of
20 deputies fired into body of Hungar-
| ian strikers, and 81 miners were killed
and about 40 others more or less in
jured.
The strikers left Hazelton about $3.50
o'clock in the afternoon, and twas their
intention to go to Latimer. AS soon
as this became known, a band of depu-
ties was loaded on trolley car and
went whirling across the mountain to
the scene, where the bloody conflict
followed.
After reaching Latimer, they left the
car and formed into three companies.
under Thomas Hall, E. A. Hess and
Samuel B. Sercy. They drew up in
line at the edge of the village, with a
fence and a line of houses in their rear.
Sheriff Martin was in entire COM
mand and stood In the front of the line
until the strikers approached. They
were seen coming across the ridge, and
Martin went out to meet them. The
men drew up sullenly and listened in
silence until he had once more read
the riot act.
This finished, low muttering arose
among the foreigners, and there was a
slight movement forward. Perceiving
this the shiriff stepped toward them
and forbade them to advance. Some
one struck the sheriff, and the next
moment the command was given to the
deputies to fire.
The guns of the deputies instantly
belched forth terrible volley. The
report seemed to shake the very noun
tains, and cry of dismay went up from
the people.
The strikers were taken entirely by
surprise, and as the men fell over each
other, those who remained unhurt
stampeded. The men went down be-
fore the storm of bullets like tempins,
and the groans of the dying and
wounded filled the air.
Martin Roski, an intelligent Hun
sarian from Mount Pleasant, who was
shot in the arm, was seen by a reporter,
and gave this version of the affair:
"We were going along the road to
Latimer. and the deputies were lined
across the road, barring our passage.
We tried to go through them, and did
not attempt TO hit or modest them,
when they fired upon US, We ran, but
they kent on shooting at US while we
ran. IL is all their fault"
Warrants have been issued for the
arrest of Sheriff Martin and the depu-
ties who took part in the shooting, but
they have taken refuge in the camps of
the state militia that has been called
to Haaelton by Governor Hastings.

The Last Sad R:tes

| HAzLEToN, Pa, Sept. 13.-The first
official action of the day was the clos.
ing of all the liquor saloons until 4
| O'Clock this afternoon. 1t was done
because of the funerals of the victims
which took place this morning, and
the fear of what might follow if the
strikers had access to liquor.
When the morning broke many of
the militiamen began to make prepar-
ations to leave their commands for
the usual promenade through the city.
further orders, that all passes were
discontinued for the present, and no
one could leave camp.
BY General Gobin's order, the Po-
lish priests and citizens met him this
morning at brigade headquarters. He
told them he had no objection to the
funeral procession, but that under no
circumstances must there be anything
in the nature of a military procession
or demonstration to show large num-
hers. They could bury their dead with
all show of mourning, national and
religious services of any kind, but
they would not be permitted to carry
flags, banners, side arms or to have
music in any form.
All along the line of the funeral pro-
icession and in front of the church
where the services were to be held,
crowds of miners and their wives be,
gan to gather at an early hour. What
might be called two branches of the
funeral eortege arrived from Harwood
about noon. Notwithstanding General
Gobin's orders one of these was headed
by brass band beating mournful ac-
compartment to the tramp of march
ing miners.
There were fully 1000 men in line
when the undertaker's shop was
reached. Around the undertaker'a
shop was packed surgipg throng of
foreigners. There was no discord.
Within the establishment the partly
decomposed bodies of the dead miners
vera exposed to view.
Outside. meanwhile preparations
were under way for starting the big
parade. BY noon it was apparent that
the funeral parade would not get under
under way until late in the afternoon.
The miners are perfectly doeile and no
trouble is anticipated.

After day of voting and wrangling
the convention voted to accept th,
proposition of the Pittsburg operators
| The vote was 495 for and 317 against
| accepting the terms of settlement, and
ii votes were.not cast. The delegates
from Illinois, who had go votes. were
unanimously against the settlement:
Indiana Fand West Virginia voted
solidly to accept the proposition, but
there were scattering votes among
Ohio and Pennsylvania against IT,
The resolution is as follows:
Resolved, That we, the miners of
Pennsylvania. West Virginia, Ohio.
Indiana and Illinois, in convention as
sembled, do hereby agree to accept the
proposition recommended by our ma
tional executive committee, viz, 80
cents in Pittsburg district and all
places in the above named states where
relatice price can be obtained, TO re-
sumo work and contribute literally to
the miners who will not receive the ad.
vance, over which the fight must be
continued to a bitter end.
Resolved, That the national Off
cers of the executive board and district
presidents act as an advisory board for
the purpose of providing ways and
means for the carrying out of the
strike where necessary; provided, how.
ever, that no district resume work for
10 days, for the purpose of giving
miners in other districts time to con.
fer with the operators and get the
price, if possible"
While 10 days is provided for the
miners to resume work, it is probable
that many Ohio and Pittsburg mines
will be reopened Monday. The Illi-
nois men will be called in convention
at Springfield September 10, to deter
mine what shall be done in that state.

| OTTER POINT. B. c., Sept. l0.-The
stea mer Cleveland hasarrived from St.
Michael-, bringing with her from the
Yukon gold fields story of distress
| and disaster. The miners she has on
board and officers in charge of the ship
tell story of disorder and distress at
Dawson.
Winter has set in at the mining city
of the frozen north, and the two great
stores of the place have closed their
| doors. for they have nothing to sell.
! Those who have been seeking for gold
must now seek for food or starve.
While there may be tendency TO
exaggerate the actual conditions of af-
| fairs. there can be no question that
| famine threatens all the venturesnme
men and women who made their way
| to the Klondike.
Enormous prices are now being paid
| for food at Dawson, and it is impossible
that more than four vessels with pro-
visions can reach that camp before the
river freezes.
The first signs ofwinter are apparent
on the Yukon river, which is begin
ming to freeze, and in few weeks will
be closed against all navigation.
On the Cleveland there are 80 pas
sengers who have come from Dawson
City. There are few miners in this
party that are able to tell of prosperity.
The miners from Dawson report that
on July % the stores Of the Alaska
Commercial Company and the North
American Trading &. Transportation
Company closed their doors. and an
nounced they had no more food to sell.
When the announcement was made
CONSERVATION seized upon the people
of Dawson, with gold-seekers crowd
ing, in at the rate OF 20 to 30 per day.
Drunkenness and disorder, gambling
and idleness were rampant.
At ST. Michaels the condition of af-
fairs is also the cause of gravest con-
cera. There are not enough structures
in town to accommodate the crowd,
aud scores OF people are living in
tents. -
Men who arrived at St. Michael and
learned that it would be impossible
for them to proceed up the Yukon,
were becoming very restless when the
Cleveland left there on Aug. 90.
Knowing nothing but suffering
awaited them, they were making
serious threats against those who had
managed the expeditions that took
them there. W. D. Wood organizer
of the Humboldt expedition, which
had just arrived at St. Michaels, was
in danger of losing his life.

SEATTLE, Sept. 13.- The steamer
Humboldt arrived this morning, II
days from st. Michaels, and brought
news that the Eliza Anderson is safe.
The Anderson is anchored in Dutch
Harbor, where she arrived on the 4th
inst, and where she is now detained
by revenue officers. Her passengers
have by this time entered Behring sea
on the schooner chartered for that pur-
pose.
Two passengers of the Anderson
were so frightened that they gave up
their search for gold and returned
south on the steamer Humboldt.
The Hum boldt brought back IA
passengers and about $l5, 200 in gold.
Mayor Wood, who chartered the Hum
boldt, is still at St. Michaels, but let
ters received from him Indicate that
all is we'll with him and that stories of
dissension and strife on the part of
members of the expedition are untrue.
The Humboldt brings back news which
reiterate the stories OF the untold
wealth of the Klondike' and Yukon,
and verifies the previous rumors of a
shortage of the food supply In the in

ness, starvation, scurvy and death on
