WORK OF INcENDIAR1Es.
Power House of the Federal Company
Burned.

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. 25.-The power
house of the Federal Coal company,
operated by e. w Powers at Federal,
Pa, on the Pittsburg, Charters G.
Youghiogheny railroad. was burned
shortly after midnight. The flames
spread rapidly and great difficulty was
experienced in saving the tipple.
There seems to be no doubt that the
fire was the work of incendiaries as
three men were seen running down the
railroad a few minutes before the
flames were discovered.
Since the strike was started, Mr.
Powers has made himself unpopular
by threatening to import colored men
and start his mines. The Federal
mines were operated by machinery
The loss was $1,000.
Striking miners are accused of
poisoning the mules in Sterling mine
No. s, at Hastings, Pa. One mule has
died. and another is missing and four
more are extremely sick. The company
is reported to have had the carcass of
the dead one examined, with the result
of proving its death was due ~ poison
1t is understood the mine will be closed
down and the tracks removed. It is
one of the largest mines in Hastings
and is the one at which the men and
Superintendent Nicholson have had so
much trouble.

Plttsburg, Aug. 25.-Coa1 operators of
the Pittsburg district have made a, de-
-cided change in front since yesterday.
Internal discussions, mixed with fear
on the part of some, caused a split in
their forces and a change of base. On
its face the move looked to many like
q temporary surrender to the United
Mine Workers of America. This, how
ever, is denied in most emphatic terms
by the most prominent lake shippers.
who say they are going to start their.
mines and supply the demand from the
northwest, and not stand idly by and
let a large volume of business go to
operators of other states.
1hey publicly state that they are.
willing to wait for a week or ten DAYS
before a decided move is made They
claim that this will give them ample
time to get the lake trade Some of
the operators in the meeting are frank
enough TO state that the situation at
the present time in all branches of
labor is critical and they have no desire
to make any move that would cast
odium on the operators of the Pittsburg
district. 1t was under these conditions
that the operators went into session
this morning. There were many who
had not signed the agreement to share
their portion toward the expense that
might accrue in the effort to start the
mines and they We're loudest in the
appeals to hold aloof to await develop
ments.
A motion to discharge all committees
and adjourn sine die finally prevailed.
In the afternoon another meeting of
the most prominent and largest lake
shippers was held. The session was
short, and as a result the following
statement was issued by their COM
rnittee:
The Organization composed of all
the coal operators, which has been in
session at the Monongahela House, adj
journed this morning sine die. This
action puts affairs into the hands of
committee appointed this morning un-
der an agreement which was entered
into at Cleveland, and was since rati-
fed and strengthened by the signatures
of a large majority of the railroad coal
producers of this district. This COM
mfttee is vested with discretionary
power to act
All efforts to find out who composed
this special committee were futile.
j. B. Zerbe, who presided at the
meeting. was emphatic in asserting
that the operators who had originally
gone into the compact at Cleveland to
break the strike had not changed their
Intentions though he admitted that the
more recently formed organization, the
members of which have been in session
here for the last few days had been
virtually abandoned.
The Cleveland operators left for their
homes tonight and it is probable that
another meeting will be held in Cleve-
land within the next few days.
In consequence of the adjournment
of the meeting and the circulation of a
report that the operators had sur
rendered to the miners organization
there was a feeling that the price Of
coal would make material advances.
Brokers were on hand at the Mononga-
hela House, but little business was
transacted. Many of them had hold
ings which they offered at advances,
but there were no buyers at an in
creased figure.

KREUGER IN THE yALKSRAAD.
Delivers a Speech Which May Cause
Much Excitelnent.

Pretoria, Aug. 25.-At a meeting of
the Volksraad today President Kru-
ger delivered a speech which is likely
to cause the greatest excitement in
Great Britain. He said that the rela-
lions between Great Britain and the
South African republic are regulated
by the convention of 1884. He added
that in the convention of November,
1881, the reference to the suzerainty
of Great Britain did appear, but that
in the next convention of 1884 not a
single word appeared bearing precisely
upon that point, and since then the
suzerainty had ceased to exist. This,
he continued, did not do away with
the fact that the South African repub
lie and the whole nation recognized the
convention and would endeayor TO
maintain it entirely, but they could
not recognize the suzerainty of Great
Britain because it was entirely opposed
TO that convention. They wished to
maintain a friendly relationship with
the whole world and in this way race
hatred would gradually disappear.
Wherever love dwells, said the presi
dent in conclusion. the blessing of
God would follow.

Especial to The Herald

Especial to The Herald.
Cheyenne. Wyo., Aug. 25.-Henry
Border, a notorious character, was
shot and killed at Baggs. south of
RawIins. last night by E. j. Early.
The men had trouble in the afternoon,
at which time Border struck Early
several times with a pistol. In the
evening Early armed himself with
shot gun and passed Borders saloon.
He called to his girl, who was drinking
there with COW boys, to come. out The
request was complied with. which
made Border mad, and he followed the
pair brandishing a pistol in the air.
Early told Border to halt. The COM
mand was not obeyed and Border con-
tinued to advance. When within 80
feet, Early shot, killing Border in
stantly.
Early was taken to Rawlins by Sher-
iff Davis. Bags has been the scene of
much outlawry of late, and shootings
are of daily occurrence. The town is
the headquarters of the Robbers ROOst
gang Of bandits, and it is believed the
dead man was one of the leaders.
