FALL OF ANOTHER INDIA FORT.
Afridis Capture Luni-Kotai After Ho
Work Message from the Queen.

Ar-idis Capture Luni-K otat After Hot
work-Message from the Queen.
Sin1la, Aug. 2S.-The Afridls attacked
Fort Luni- Kotal on Tuesday The gar
rison held its own until 10 o'clock
wednesday morning, when. after snarp
fighting In which the native commander
of the garrison was killed while gal
lantly leading his men, the enemy
gained an entrance. The fight was
continued two hours inside the fortiii-
cation by the Khyber rifles in the tow
ers at the angles of the fort, which were
strongly built of stone. The Afridis lost
heavily before they finally captured the
place. They looted the fort, capturing
a quantity of supplies, and then burned
the structure. The fact that no news
has been received of the fate OF the
garrison leads TO the belief that they
succeeded In making terms before they
surrendered.
Amessage from the queen to the vice.
roy has been received as follows.
am grieved at the loss of my brave OFF,
GERS and men. / trust that the wound
ed are doing we'll. Ii is most gratity-
ing TO me to see how we'll my troops
have behaved. The conduct OF all oi
my troops has been admirable"
This was read 10 the troops and re-
ceived with enthusiastic cheering. The
British authorities are gratified at the
fact that all the men on leave from th'
Fortieth regiment of Pathans, composed
of Mohmands, Swats and Bonerals
whose tribes are revolving, rejoined thei;
colors OH the outbreak of the present
disturbances. In addition many mem
bers of the reserve forces of this body
of men have volutarily applied for en-
rollment.

chief deputy stated that there will be
no interference with the marchers, pend

on their way and were successful in per-
suading three foreigners to strike.
The first attempt to start any Of the
coal mines in this district was made at
Champion mines of Robbins g. Co.. near
Mcdonald. Pa, on the Panhandle rail-
way. Friday morning. Two carloads of
foreigners, gathered up from about
Pittsburg. were sent to the Champion
mines about daylight and put to work
loading slack into cars. The miners
heard of the arrival Of the new men and
500 women marched on the mine. The
new men were attacked with stones and
clubs and driven from the cars. The
women followed them up and the for
eigners, without resisting, fled to Mo-
blestown. The women then returned to
Mcdonald and dumped the slack that
had been loaded from the cars. They
were met by 1000 strikers, and headed
by a band. marched a short distance
from the mine, where they are now en-
camped, watching for the return of the

Is getting rich, and there will be work

winter will furnish employment to all
who are there and willing to work, and
to the 5000 now coming. Wages will
continue at $l5 a day.

Dinsmore says that rich miners want
