LONDON MONEY MARKET.

tions of the Yellow Metal.

London, Sept. 5.-Interest in the money
market during the past week has been TO-
cussed on India on account of the action
of the India council in suspending the
sale of bills of exchange and offering to
buy bills. 1t is possible that India will
ask for a gold loan and that exports of gold
to that country will follow, and gold may
be use' at the rate of Is I'D per rupee to
obtain silver currency in India. 1t is con-
ceded that this would be a step toward the
establishment of n gold standard. The
of exports to the United States and Japan
rendered the market sensitive.

No Two Mines in PittsburG District
Where the Conditions Are Alike
The Trouble Likely to BE
Adjusted Mt Columbus
on Wednesday,.

Pittsburg. Pa. Sept. 5.-EXpectations are
high in coal mining circles over the proba-
Bile resumption of work in the mines
throughout the country.
In anticipation of Il settlement at CO.
lumbus next Wednesday. another plan has
been suggested by a representative of one
of the largest operators which will be aSi-
tated Immediately after the men return to
work. 1t will be formulated and submitted
to the joint convention of operators and
miners. which it is proposed to hold next
December. In order to come to an under
standing on all questions at issue separate
wage scales are to be formulated for each
mine. The scale is to provide for the rate
to be paid for the entire year. and any
special concessions that are to be made
are to be agreed upon by the miners and
the operators, and so specified in the scale.
The scale is to be an adjunct to the uni
formity agreement which is expected to be
in force. The proposition will be made
by the operators in the hope of putting all
the safeguards possible against probable
strike. 1t is we'll known that there are
not two mines in the entire district where
the conditions are exactly alike. The uni
formity agreement covers the general
points, but even with it in existence, some
operators would be subjected to difficulties,
while others have special advantages. The
scale is to cover all these points. The pri-
mary object being to avert differences,
create more friendly feeling between the
employees and employers.
Philip Stambaugh, cousin of President
Mckinley, and 4 partner in the firm of Os-
borne Saeger & Co., was in Pittsburg, this
afternoon. He said the men formerly en-
ployed in the Eclipse mine, on the Wheel
ing division of the Baltimore 6, Ohio rail-
road, will be asked to go to work to-mor-

not prepared to say how many men would

WILL BOYCOTT BACHELORS.
WOman's Rescue League, of BOstOn,
VIII Not Permit Unmarried POIi-
ticians to Partake of SpOiIs

Boston, Sept. 5.-The recent manifesto of
Mrs. Charlotte Smith against the bachelor
politician was the subject of much atten-
ton from the Woman's Rescue League
of this city yesterday. AS result, a set
of resolutions was adopted, setting forth
that the American bachelor politician
shirks his duty to the human family when
he fails to provide home for some good
woman before he engages in the profess
sion of politics: therefore he is not to be
trusted after he has entered political
arena in which temptations surround him
ON all sides and that. unfortunately, mod
ern society has therefore given the politi-
cal bachelor too much latitude by ignoring
his private life.
Resolved. That as far as practicable,
list of bachelor politicians who are as
pirants for public Office be obtained in the
states of Massachusetts and New York
and formal protests be sent out against
their election or reelection by the Wom-
ans Rescue League, on the ground that
they are ineligible to hold public office"
The league extends its congratulations
to eX-Mayor Edwin Upton Curtis, of Bos-
ton, on his approaching marriage, and rec
ommends for him n two years vacation
from politics, in which to enjoy his honey
moon.
