etfeetually cripple even these, by con-
stantly adding to their number from
the ranks of those remaining at work.
When the miners headquarters We're
visited this evening the officials were
in high glee over the result accom-
plished today. From all reports !
have received" said President Dolan,
there are no more than 5000 miners
at work in the Pittsburg district today.
From reliable lieutenants in the field,
reports received say that more than
So per cent of the aggregate number of
the men in the district have joined in
the movement for higher wages. The
best news received was that the men
working under contract at the Pan
handle mines of M. A. Hanna e Co.,
had quit work and also the Robbins
first mines were idle and so no coal
was loaded at the mines of the Pitts
burg & Chicago Gas and Coal company
at Snowden and Gastonville. The
strike is a greater success than the one
of 1894. All the men in the Mononga-
hela valley, the Panhandle, the main
line of the Baltimore & Ohio, and out
along the Wheeling division, have quit
work. The total number will approx
innate $4,000 If we can get the men at
the Cleveland Gas and Coal company's
mines out we will settle this fight
within a week, and [ believe we can
do it,
Leading operators in the district pro-
fess to take an entirely different view
of the situation. They admit that the
miners have succeeded in getting more
men to strike than they expected, but
say they are not worried over the out
look and that the strike will not last
a week. None of them are pressed for
coal and have offers from operators
whose miners are not concerned in the
movement to help them out. The
strike has already benefited the West
Virginia operators, and if it continues
for a few weeks they will be enabled
to dispose Of a large quantity of coal
at good prices.
The Wheeling & Lake Erie railway
began today to haul West Virginia
coal into Ohio. Two train loads passed
The miners are sullen, and it is be-
lieved by some that they may resort
to force to prevent the moving if
trains if the railway persists in hauling
this coal. Deputy marshals have been
stationed along the line Of the road to
prevent interference with trains and
the possible destruction of bridges.
COLUMBUS, O., July 7.-President
Ratchford said today: There is no
longer any doubt that an ultimate VIC
tory for the miners is assured" Mr.
Ratchford said he would not give fig
ures today, but the reports were favor
able.
Information tonight is to the effect
that between 1900 and 1900 miners on
the Wheeling & Lake Erie, at Laurel
ton, Dillonville and Long Run will re-
turn to work tomorrow This has had
a discouraging effect on the miners in
the Wheeling district, the last of whom
were induced to quit work tonight.

WHEELING, July THE storm CEN
ter of the big coal strike1bids fair to
be located in the vicinity of Wheeling.
Already the operators In the Fairmont,
w. Va, region are preparing to send
great quantities of COAL into Ohio and
to the lakes. Wheeling is the gateway
through which all the coal will pass.
Three roads, the Baltimore & Ohio,
the Wheeling & Lake Erie and the
Cleveland, Lorian & wheeling, will
carry it through to it's markets. The
fear is now becoming general that the
coal from the West Virginia mines,
passing through, will provoke violence
on the part of the miners and their
friends in Eastern Ohio.
This morning, armed with pick
handles and clubs, the striking Wheel
ing & Lake Erie miners at Long Run
proceeded to Dillonville, a short dis
tance away on the same road. and
forced the working miners at the lat
ter place to come out.
Cleveland, O., July THE railroads
have already begun to seize coal for
their own use, no matter to whom it is
consigned. Whole trains are sent to
of who the coal is consigned to.
PITTSBURG, Pa, July 7-Forty-
eight hours after the inauguration Of
the great coal strike, comparison of
statements from both sides engaged
in the contest, shows favorable results
for the diggers. Discounting the
miners officials announcements, by
the operators opinions, there seems no
question that the workmen have scored
a decided advantage in this district
and it is believed that as the Pittsburg
district goes, so goes the country. Con-
servative estimates place the number
of miners now striking in this district
from 10000 to 10000 men, an increase
of about 5000 over yesterdays record.
This leaves but from 5000 to 5000 men
still working. The key to The entire
situation, from present appearances,
lies in the success or defeat of the
strikers securing the cooperation OF
the men now working for the New
York & Cleveland Gas Coal company.
Without these men the strike can
able, in a measure, to supply the de-
mana long enough 10 Ilut oFCl the
present embarrassment.
Patrick Dolan, president of the Pitts
burg district miners, is confident that
before the present week closes, he will
have succeeded in getting all Of these
men to join the ranks of the strikers,
and when this result is effected, the
battle will be practically Won The
operators are just as confident Of sue
cess as the miners are, and tonight is
sue a statement claiming large ac-
cession of men in different parts Of the
district, and a heavier shipping list
than usual. One thing slightly in favor
of the operators is the freeing of navi-
CATION on the Monongahela river,
which went into effect; today. Ten
million bushels of coal which have
been stocked in the pools above here,
awaiting this event, will be brought to
this harbor at once and be available
for the present demand. Notwith-
standing the advantages claimed for
the operators, the consensus of opin-
ion appears to be in favor of the
miners, inasmuch as the operators can
only hope for temporary relief with
their present facilities, and the miners
officials seem to be in fair way to

ings are expected to be held in the room
OF the senate committee on finance,
and the meetings after the formal
gathering tomorrow, will be as nearly
continuous as the physical endurance
of the members of the conference will
permit.
The minority in the house will make
no opposition to the Republican pro-
gramme of sending the tariff bill to
conference at once. Both the Demo-
Gratis and Populists see that nothing
can be gained by the interposition of
factious opposition. No definite ar
rangement has yet been made as to
the time to be allowed for debate when
the bill is reported back from con-
ference, but little difficulty is anticipat-
ed ON this point.

AS to the length of the conference
there is a difference of opinion among
the house conrerees. Chairman Ding
ley, speaking Of the conference On
the Mckinley bill, said it lasted two
weeks and that there was not as many
vital points of difference between the
two houses then as there is now Gen.
GroSvenor, on the ether hand, predicts
that the bill will be a law a week from
Saturday, if the bill goes into confer

WASHINGTON, July by the de-
| cisive vote of thirty-eight to twenty
eight the tariff bill was passed in the
senate shortly before o'clock today.
The elimination of the long and ardu.
Gus struggle had excited the keenest in
terest, and the floor and the galleries
OF the senate chamber were crowded
| by those anxious to witness the clos
| ing scene. Speaker Reed, Chairman
Dingley and many of the members of
| the house of representatives were in
! the rear area, while every seat in the
| galleries save those reserved for for
| eign representatives was occupied. The
main interest centered in the final vote
| and, aside from this, there was little
of dramatic character in the debate.
The early part of the day was spent
on amendments of comparative minor
Importance, the debate branching into
financial and antitrust channels. By
o'clock the senators began manifest
ing their impatience by calls for vote"
| and soon thereafter the last amend
ment was disposed of and the final
vote began. There were many inter
ruptions as pairs were arranged, and

ator said he and his associates were
treated as though they were active
opponents of the protective policy.
Mr.. Allen (Neb) announced that the
Populist party did not believe the
tariff was the issue and did not desire
part or parcel in it's determination. He
should, therefore, not vote at all.
Mr.. Mantle Silver Rep, Mont.), after
reviewing the causes which had led
him to break with the Republican
had never abandoned his belief in the
doctrine of protection and would vote
for the bill. Mr.. Stewart Pop., New
said he did not vote for the Wilson bill
and would not vote for this bill. The
final vote was then taken and the
following pairs were announced; the
first named would have voted for the
bill and the last named against it:

Storm That Struck Glenwood Caused Great Havoc
Elsewhere

DULUTH, Mimi, July 7.-Fourteen
people are now known to have been
killed in the cyclones and cloudbursts
in this portion of Minnesota yesterday
and today. The storm was general and
it is impossible to estimate the damage
with any degree of certainty. The
cyclone, which was central near Glen
wood. was one of the worst that ever
struck the state. The telegraph lines
are down for seventy-five miles each
side of there, and particulars are hard
to get. The list of dead at Glenwood
SO far as known is as follows:
TOLIFF LAVAN,
SAMUEL MORROW,
MRS. SAMUEL MORROW,
WINNIE MORROW,
OSWALD MCGOWAN,
Aside from these Alfred Morrow and
a baby one year old were probably
fatally injured. The trainmen say
number of other houses were blown
from their foundations by the storm
and undoubtedly more lives are lost.
William Norris and wife are reported
to have been. killed. Railroad traffic
is paralyzed because of the heavy fall
of rain. The rain came so suddenly
and so fiercely in some places that
many trains ran into washouts before
they had any intimation of danger.

Senate Chamber Crowded
During Closing Hours
of Debate.
VIEWS DIFFER
AS to the Time That
VIII Be Required.

on which day Mr.. Alurich, in behalf
of the finance committee, made the
opening statement on the bill. The
actual consideration of the bill began
the next day, May 26, when schedule
A, relating to chemicals was taken up.
The debate has been continuous since
then, covering six weeks and one day.
1t has been notable in some respects,
although it has lacked many of the
dramatic and OratOrical features mark
ing past debates. From the outset the
advocates of the bill refrained from
set speeches, and the discussion was
narrowed to a consideration OF rates
and schedules, rather than general
principles Mr.. Aldrich's illness took
him from the chamber after the first
day, and since then the bill has been
III immediate charge of Mr.. Allison.
The opposition has been directed in the
main by Mr.. Jones (Ark.) and Mr..
Vest (Mo), while Senators White, Caf-
ferry, Gray and Allen have frequently
figured in the debate. The bill as it
gees back to the house, re-enacts the
antitrust sections of the Wilson act,
while reciprocity and retaliatory pro-
visions are substituted for those of the
house.
One of the most important new pro-
visions added by the senate is that
placing a stamp tax on bonds, deben-
lures and certificates of stock. Aside
from these more important changes,
the bill as it goes back to the house
has 874 amendments, of various degrees
of Importance, which must be recon
ciled between the two branches of con-
gresS.
CLOSING DEBATE.
During the consideration of the bill,
previous to the final vote, which was
i Nv
amendments and roll calls, Mr..
Stewart (Nev) proposed an amend
ment limiting the treasury reserve to
500, 100000 and providing that when an
excess of S., 900 is reached then the
secretary of the treasury shall pur-
chase and retire United States bonds
to the extent of the excess over $780,
000, ,000 He spoke at length on the
amendment and against the piling up
of large sums in the treasury. Mr..
Jones (Ark) expressed a cordial and
hearty support of the amendment.
Messrs. Chiffon, Bacon, Allen and Can
non supported the amendment and
Messrs. Chandler, Caffery and Quay
opposed it. Mr.. Allison moved to lay
the amendment on the table Mr.. AL
ljson's motion was carried 38 to 80.
Mr.. Morgan then offered the amend
nent which he gave notice yesterday,
making combinations among dealers
in cattle or swine engaged in inter-
state commerce to increase or depress
the price thereof, criminal and punish
able by a fine and imprisonment. Lost,
26 to 81.
The monotony Of amendments and
roll calls was broken by Mr.. Teller.
He had intended, he said, to address
the senate at some length against the
bill, but had concluded that it was
best to allow the measure to go into
conference and discuss it during the
conference. I'm my judgment it is the

The dock contained 5000 tons of hard

still blazing and will probably have to
burn themselves out. The origin of the
fire is thought to have been a spark
from an engine or lightning stroke.
