A Big Conference of Labor Leaders in Ses-
sion at Pitts
burg.

Pittsburg, July 9.-The labor lead
ers from all sections of the country
are in town to attend the conference
at the Monongahela house today. Pres
ldent Ratchford, of the United Mine
Workers, is the central figure, This
is the largest and most important
gathering ever held during wage
conflict. 1t is generally believed that
the conference will result in a general
sympathetic strike, to include one
million workmen, paralyzing the bus
mess of the country so completely that
capitalists Will eventually be COM
PEELED to surrender. Many other union
leaders are here, and they will devise
ways and means to cooperate with
the miners IN their struggle.
1t is reported from the Wheeling
district that the strike situation in
West Virginia is practically un-
changed. No miners have gone out
today. In that state the mines are
running at full capacity, and the men
show no signs of going out. Thous-
ands of tons are now in the yards and
on the side tracks, and the West Vir-
glnia operators will attempt soon to
move this coal, which must be carried
over the Wheeling and Erie Road to
Toledo. United States deputy mar
shals, armed with repeating rifles, are
now guarding the bridges and other
property of the road, Federal protec-
ton having been asked for IN anticipa-
tiOn of violence from the striking
miners of Ohio in case the company
attempts to carry West Virginia coal.
The men at DllIonvale and Long
Run mines are still out. Most of
these miners are Slavs and Hungari-
ans. The operators of these plines de-
clare that their men were intimidated.
An effort Will be made today to escort
them to work under guard of deputy
marshals and there is sure to be con-
fiict.
The leaders of the Plttsburg district
are alarmed at the failnre to induce
the men of the Dearmitt mines to go
out. These men have had a disastrous
experience with sympathetic strikes,
and absolutely refuse to stop work,
unless they are persuaded the strike
in the Pittsburg district cannot be
made effective.

M'KINLEY IS IN
QUEER POSITION.
Doesn't Know What to Do About
His Financial
Message.
IT MAY Be SENT IN TODAY.
The Cabinet Holds a Prolonged Meet
ing on the Vexing
Subject

Washington, July 9.-President Nc
Kinley is in most embarrassing
plight regarding his financial mes
sage, which he prepared some time
since to send to congress, after the
tariff was out of the way.
Influences from all sides have been
brought to bear so equally strong that
the president.is in qusndary.
The main topic of discussion before
the cabinet at the regular meeting to-
day was this message, which has been
withheld for a few days, in Difference
to the wishes of many prominent Re-
publicans.
After considering all the objections
that had been madR against the pres
entation of the message at the present
session of congress, the president and
his cabinet were still of the opinion
that in order to redeem the party
promises the subject of currency re-
form should be treated in a message
recommending the creation of spe-
cial and impartial commission.
Unless there is another change In
the plans of the president, he Will
send the message to congress next
Monday.

TACKLING THE TURK.
The Powers Will Send Another Note to the
Sultan.

ConstantinopIe, July 9.-The am
bassadors of the powers having been
reinstructed by their respective gov
ernments about the dispatching of an
other note to the Turkish government,
reiterating their demand for an ex-
plicit reply on the Graeco-Turkish b
frontier question, it Is thought prob
able that they may recommend their
governments to recall them and or
ganize naval demonstration, point
ing out the futility of sending notes
which fail to impress the porte, urg-
ing that demonstration is necessary
to compel Turkey to yield, and holding
that otherwise progress toward the
conclusion of peace is not to be ex-
pected.
The Turkish Dardanelles squadron
has been ordered to make ready to
proceed to the island of Crete and
take on board provisions for three
months. The trade orders all officers
of that squadron to rejoin their ships
in three days.
