Clark, SPECIAL master in the stock

does not enter into discussion of the

ARBITRATION FAILS.


PITTSBURGH, Pa, Aug. 25.-At the

turn to work at the 69-cent rate pend
ing arbitration was rejected. The OPP
orators will now carry out the plan

sion for several hours and when the
doors were opened their press agent
announced that the mines would GER

If possible, with imported men If the

When the conference was resumed

we have made contracts which we must fulfill,
We realize fully that contract is as binding
on an employe as on any one else. So there
will be no sympathetic strike on the part Of

THE OLD SOLDIERS.
More Members at This Encampment
Than Ever Turned Out Before.
A GRAND PARADE OF The VETERANS.
Ex-PrisOners Of War and Naval Veterans
Turn Out In Force conventions and
Camp-Fires Held-The Ladies'
Aux ilisries.

BUFFALO, N. Y..Aug. .5.-From dawn
to darkness, and from twilight to mid
night, the great gathering of the
Grand Army Of the Republic waxed
greater and grander yesterday. The
weather has been all that could be
wished, and more members of the
Grand Army have turned out than
ever before attended a national en-
campment. This is true also of the
Ex-Prisoners of War association and
the naval veterans and the women's
auxiliary bodies. The features OF the
day were the arrival of President Nc
Kinley, accompanied by Secretary Al
ger, and Gov. Black, of New York, the
banquet to the president in the even
ing and the parade Of the veterans and
ex-prsoners Of war in the morning.
During the day there were more than
30 corps, brigade, regimental and COM
pany reunions. The naval veterans,
ex-prisoners OF war, Ladies of the e.
A. R. and the Association of Nurses,
held their conventions, and there were
many receptions given by and to the
ladies Of the auxiliary associations.
A trip on the lake, participated in by
about 1000 ladies' was one of the most
pleasant Of the many entertainments.
In the evening there were number OF
camp-fres for the men and receptions
and musical entertainments for the
ladies'.
In the parade the Naval Veterans
association and the Ex-Prisoners of
War association, together with the
survivors Of the Erie county regiments
and other organizations, composed the
Grand Army contingent. The naval
veterans wore the uniform of the
United States naval service, and made
asplendid appearance. The ex-prison-
ers of war, from the rank and file OF
the G. A. R., wore the uniforms Of their
respective posts, and on each coat was
fastened badge bearing the name Of
the prison in which the wearer had
been confined.
Rear Admiral Sears called the 18th
annual convention of the National As
ISOLATION of Naval Veterans to order
in the afternoon. About 300 delegates
were in attendance. Daniel M. Kelly,
Of Philadelphia, was elected rear ad-
miral for the ensuing year over Will
M. Atkins, by vote of "a to 49, A
resolution was adopted urging the Sec
rotary Of the navy to accept the plans
Of Baerer and Webb, Of New York, for
q statue of the late David B. Porter,
to be erected in Philadelphia or New
York. The committee on resolutions
reported against the removal of gold
stripes from the uniforms Of the naval
veterans. A fierce fight on the matter
caused it to be laid on the table for
year.
The National Association of Army
Nurses met with National President
Mrs. Emily +. Woodley. of Phladel-
phia, in the chair, and after listening
to the addresses of the president and
senior vice president and the various
reports adjourned in order to allow
the members to take ride on the lake.

and Indiana was represented. Mrs.

Precautions Taken for Preventing Rescue

Ina, ILL.,, Burned.

PINE BLUFF. Ark, Aug. 25.--T. T.
johnson. prominent white man, who
was brutally cut last Saturday at a
negro dance at Kendall, has died.
Tom Handley who was also badly cut,
is fast improving. When the news Of
the terrible affair became known the
citizens in the vicinity started out de-
termined to capture the guilty parties
and they have succeeded. Monday
afternoon the deputy sheriff captured
two OF the negroes connected with the
bloody work near the scene of the
crime. The party then started for
Rison to place the two brutes in Jail,
when one of the negroes broke away,
and although he was shot the second
time it did not stop his fight and
he made good his escape. The officers
then continued their way with the
other one, whose name was Bill Wiley
Douglass. When near Anderson the
negro was taken from them some time
late in the night and he was imme-
diately strung up to bridge on the
Cotton Belt railroad, where his body
was found yesterday. 1t is given out
that a mob Of negroes hanged Doug
lass, but it is generally believed that
the mob was composed of enraged white
citizens. Douglass has always been
desperate character, and is supposed
to have led the gang that did the
bloody work last Saturday. A well
authenticated report reached here late
yesterday evening that six other ne
groes, who are known to have been
connected with the affair." have been
arrested and placed in Jail at Sisson.
The Jail is not considered very safe,
and it was the general opinion that
before morning all six would be
lynched. Excitement in and about
Anderson and Kendall is at fever heat
and more trouble is expected.
