Hazletou, Pa, Sept. 19.-The vicious
ness of the attack of deputy sheriffs
upon the marching miners grows with
time. The facts developed make it al
most wanton murder. That $50 armed
deputies found it necessary to kill
twenty and wound forty others out OF
n total number of 40 miners, whose
arms consisted only of pocket knives,
is very hard to believe. 1t is also
made more iucredulous by the fact
that many of the wounded were shot
in the back.
The state militia is patrolling the
town to prevent more bloodshed. War
rants have been issued for the arrest
of the sheriff and number of depu.
ties but they have taken refuge within
the military lines and no officers are
allowed TO modest them.

The Coal Miners Strike Settled in Ohio
Indiana and West Virginia.
Columbus, o., Sept. 12.-The great
miners strike, which was declared on
July 4, was brought to an end last
evening, so far at least as western
Pennsylvania, Ohio Indiana and West
Virginia are concerned by the action
of the interstate convention of miners
which has been in session here since
Wednesday. After day of voting and
wrangling, the convention adopted
resolution accepting the proposition
of the Pittsburg operators.
The vote was 495 for and 317 against
accepting the terms of settlement, and
IL votes were not cast. The delegates
from Illinois, who had $50 votes, were
unanimously against a settlement. In
diana and West Virginia voted solidly
to accept the operators proposition,
but there were scattering votes among
the Ohio and Pittsburg delegates
against it.

silver Reserve.

London, Sept, 10. - The announce
ment that the Bank Of England has
decided to hold one-lifih of its reserve
in silver has greatly astonished fnan
cial circles aud has aroused a storm of
protest
Heretofore little attention has been
given in England to the reports of
senator Wolcott's work and the pres
est rumor would not be believeds un-
less the Times had given it currency.
AS a matter of fact, the low tide of sill
yer makes the opposition stronger.
The possibility of an advance of the
bank rate has agitated the money mar
ket somewhat, but the movement is
again delayed, although the Bank of
Germany has raised the rate to per
cent. The weakness of New York ex-
change is interpreted as foreshadowing
gold movements. Silver is somewhat
firmer on account of the small amount
and has advanced to 25H per ounce

Women Arrested for Marching.

Pittsburg, Pa, Sept IA. - Emma
| Hamms, the miners Joan d. Arc, and
three other women were arrested for
marching at Plum creek this morning
by Sheriff's deputies. The attempt to
make the arrests precipitated an incl
pient riot, in which the deputies Jared
badly. No one was seriously hurt,
but scarcely deputy escaped club
bing and superintendent DeArmitt
was cut on the hand. Two of the
women arrested carried babies.
The arrest was the result of the
carefully planned attempt to prevent
the men at work at Plum creek from
entering the mines. There were TWEEN
ty-five women and about fifty strikers
concerned in it. The plan was to have
the women march in front with their
babies, with the design of working on
the sentiments of the men who would
be going 10 work and to act as a shield
TO the rest OF the party. The women
were to crowd around each man as he
attempted to go into the mine, take
his dinner-bucllet from him and throw
il into the ditch

MORE MINERS STRIKE.
Situation in Hszeiton District Is One of
Unrest.


Hazleton, Pa, Sept. 14.-Hazelton
quivers on the edge of volcano.
Troops are marching on the mines of
Coke Bros. at Eckley, eight miles from
here. kilograms to brigade head
quarters indicate an alarming condi-
ton there.
Two hundred miners at Buck Noun
tain, which is about thirteen miles
from Eclsley, went on a strike. At 4
o'clock the miners marched on the
Eckley mines and forced the miners to
quit work. II was stated the miners
had been roughly handled.
The situation in Hazeltou district is
one of unrest. All the colleries in this
district are apprehensive of danger.
Requests have been pouring in to Gen
eral Goblin from the various mines ask
ing that he send troops to the places
in order TO prevent any possible out
break
The general states that he will not
send troops TO any point unless an out
break does occur. The general declines
to give the names of the collieries, as
all the men in them are still at work.
The operators, however, are appre-
hensive of strike, and want to be
prepared for any emergency.

Keys and Drugs Found I'm the Hands OF
the COnvicts.
Boise, Ida, Sept. 13.-The investiga.
ton of the penitent iary conspiracy ha
developed some astounding facts. II
is understood the discovery has been
made that limited number of keys
have in some mysterious manner fallen
into the possession of convicts, with
which they can open their cell doors.
1t also develops that drugs and other
dangerous articles have been Struggled
into the prison, thus creating conster-
nation among the prison authorities.
The officials are determined to get
to the bottom of the matter and the
result of their investigation is liable to
implicate some who would never be
suspected by the public. Warden Van
der is fully alive to the situation and
has matters so arranged now that the
plans of the conspirators will be al
most impossible of further execution.

the purpose of collecting from such
mortgages for the benefit of the
school fund of the county the penalty

Thirteen Killed Outright and Many More
Injured.


Newcastle. Colo, Sept. LA terri
BILE wreck caused by blunder on the
part of conductor occurred near here
early this morning, in which it is
known that thirteen lives were lost
and about twenty people seriously in
jured. 1t is also supposed that several
bodies were cremated, rendering it
impossible to state how many fatali-
ties resulted. A passen ger train run
ming forty miles and a freight running
thirty came together in a head-end
collision. The engineer and fireman
of both trains were instantly killed.
The freight was running out of time
and was trying to steal a station. The
passenger was an hour behind time,
but had the right of way. So great
great was the shock when the trains
came together that the track was torn
up for quite a distance either way.
Cars were piled one upon another and
an explosion of gas ignited them, and
it is feared some were burned alive
who were in the wreck. The coroner's
inquest held the conductor of the
freight responsible for the wreck. The
conductor, however, says he was run
ming with authority, and the records
of the dispather's office will be pro
duced to settle this point.
