William X. R.id, county attorney
OF Sanpete, has written the attorney

duct from the amount OF Its capital

also been assessed Tor taxation. Mr..
Bishop in his answer refers Attorney
Reid to section 2 OF article

says:

COAL MINERS CONVENTION.
Called 10 Take Action on The Strike
Circulars.
Presented his After
noon.

PITIsBURa, Pa, July 3.-The larg-
est convention OF coal miners ever
held in this district began here at 10
O'Clock this morning, to take action on
the strike circulars sent out by the
general officers a few days ago. Moth
ing hal been doue when the conven.
ton adj urned for lunch, but President
D,lan stated that the committee on
resolutions had prepared report
favoriug strike aud this would be
presented this afternoon. The feeling
among the delegates, he said, was
strong y in iavor OF strike and toe
resolution would probably be adopted.
In cAee strike among the coal
miners in the Pitisburg district is de-
olsred by the convention today, q quo
miners will be concerned In the result.
Many OF these, however, have not
been working regularly for some limo.
In the Cleardeld district "a, 600 miners
are employed when the mines are
running and District President Dolan
says the whole district Will also 20 out.
The number OF men in other States
who are concerned in the present
strike, so far as can be estimuiei are
as follows: OHIO, $4,000; illinois, 49,
600; Indiana, 10000, anu In West Var
gina about %, 900 mon.
The miners employed In the vicin-
ity OF Greensburg will not join the
strike but on the contrary are prepared
for a rush OF WORK. The Greensburg,
Madison, Hempfeld and Carbon Coal
Companies employ about 1900 who
have Fever BEEN Identified with the
Miners union, and have always been
paid the bighest scale OF wages. The
Inauguration of the general strike
means steady WORK Tor them. Dur ng
the strike OF two years ago the miners
