UNANIMOUS FOR STRIKE.
Action of the Pittsburg District Coal
Miners

PITTSBURG, July 3.-The coal miners of
the Pittsburg district, in delegate conven-
ton here to-day, decided unanimously to
comply with the order of the national ex-
ecutive board to strike, and all the union
miners in the district will lay down their
tools tomorrow morning and enter on a
struggle for better wages, which promises
to be one of the longest and most bitterly
contested fights ever known in the labor
world. The delegates to the convention
left for their homes full of strike senti-
ment each man promising a complete sus-
pension of work in the mines he represent
ed. The miners officials have completed
arrangements for a series of mass meet
ings, to be held throughout the entire dis
trict, and it is believed the effect Of those
meetings will be to bring out every digger
in the district, those who are under iron
clad agreements as we'll as the others
Twenty-one thousand men are usually
employed in the Pittsburg district
Many of these, however, have not
been working regularly for some time. In
the Clearfeld district 25,000 miners are en-
pIOyed when the mines are running and
District President Dolan says the whole
district Will also go out. The number of
men in other States who are concerned in
the present strike, so far as can be esti-
mated are as follows: Ohio, % 900; IQi-
nois, 10000; Indiana, 5000, and in West Vir-
ginia about q 900 men, a total of 142, ,000, all
told. The miners employed in the vicinity
of Greensburg Will not join the strike, but,
on the contrary, are preparing for rush of
work The Greensburg, Madison, Hemp
field and CaEbon coal companies employ
about 1,500 men who have been identified
with the miners union, and have always
been paid the highest scale of wages. The
miners are mostly Americans, and many of
them own their own homes in that vicinity.
The inauguration Of the general strike
means steady work for them and as much
of it as they can perform. During the gen
eral strike of two years ago the miners and
operators of Greensburg literally coined
money, and their experience at that TIME
is guiding the men now.
District President Dolan to-day received
the following telegram from National Pres
dent M. ID. RatchtOrd, at Columbus o.:
I'VE are out for living wages. The issue
must be met squarely and determindly, and
success will attend the greatest movement
the country has ever seen"
The miners officials here tonight say
that idleness will prevail in the mapOrity of
all the rail and river mines in the Pitts
burg district. The claim that the struggle
for higher wages will be of short duration
coal for the lake trade a this season of
the year they Will be granted an advance
before the operators lose large contracts for
the future delivery of coal. The miners
officials now claim that a conservative es-
innate fixes the number Of men who will go
on strike in Pennsylvania, West Virginia,
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois at two hundred
thousand. They hope to increase this num-
ber as the strike sentiment grows.

BESSIE" WAS A MAN.
Young New YOrISers Bought Ice Cream
for One of Their own Sex.

NEW YORK, July 3.-For seven years the
young men employed at 20S Wooster street
made love to Bessie" the pretty forewom-
an in a hat factory at that place. She had
black eyes, glossy raven hair, a good fig
ure--she was worth fighting for-until now,
when they have found out she is a man.
Nobody suspected her. She wore her
clothes just like girl, talked like one, set
the young men by the ears, teased them, let
them buy oceans of ice cream, which she
ate-all just like girl. Perhaps they would
have gone on believing Bessie was a girl
if she had rot suddenly eloped with pretty
Sophie Goldstein, real girl this time.
They left the city three weeks ago, and are
living in Chicago as Mr.. and Mrs. Feingold.
Sophie is pretty and twenty-five. She
lived at SO Monroe street and worked in
paper box factory, also at 20S Wooster
street. Bessie was her friend. When it be-
came known about year ago that Sophie
was going to be married Bessie became
heart-broken. "She" swore if Sophie mar
ried "she" would kill herself. Sophie broke
off the engagement, and from that day they
became closer friends than ever. About two
months ago Sophie went to room with Bes-
sic just across the street from the formers
old home. Her sister was amazed shortly
after to see Bessie in mems clothes She
asked Sophie what this meant, and was
tcld that Bessie was a man and that they
had been secretly married.
Feingold or Bessie" after he had his
hair cut, never went near the factory. The
employees there never saw him, her or them
in the new dress, and were aStonished when
Abraham Greiger, an ex-employe, wrote
from Chicago that Bessie was there as a
married man, and that Sophie, his bride,
was with him. Nobody at the factory could
offer any motive for Feingolds disguise
One of the women employed in the factory
said she knew Bessie in Russia, and
"she" passed as a girl there from child

DISTRIBUTORS RATES.
Little Probability They VIII lie Re.
duced for ChicagO's Benefit.

CHICAGO, July SIT has developed that
the conference of executive officers of
Western roads and members of the Ma
tional Merchants and Travellers Associa-
tions next Tuesday has been called simply
for the purpose for affording the executive
officers an opportunity of explaining in a
graceful way the reasons which prevent
the roads from making reduced distrib-
utors' rates in the way they have been
asked to do. When the call was first issued
the supposition was the roads were pre-
pared TO recede f. m the position originally
taken by them, out they now appear TO
occupy it as firmly as ever. An announced
conference between the general mana gers
of the interested roads and the mayor and
corporation council was not held to-day.

WANTS THREE-CENT FARES.
Why AtIanta's Mayor Is Fighting a
Street-RaiIway Consolidation.

ATLANTA, Ga, July 3.-Mayor Collier
gave new turn to the fight between the
city and the Consolidated Street Railway
Company to-day by announcing that his
real object in seeking the dismemberment
of the system as announced in these dis
patches yesterday, is the securing of g.
cent fares The mayor holds that if the six
systems which were united to form the
Consolidated, were operated separately, the
competition would force a reduction of
fares below cents. The ground on which
the breaking up of the combination will be
asked is that it is a combination of COM
peting lines and thereby violates the State
Constitution.

she smiled still more broadly and
sweetly.

The divorce case OF Dean King from
his wife Josie, on charge of in6delity,
occupied a Denver court yesterday.
Dean King and Josie Barker were mar
ried in Boulder on February d, 1901,
when, she claims, she possessed $4,000
which her husband has squandered.
King claims that in addition to the acts
of infidelity for which he furnished the
names of eleven correspondents with
times and places, his wife was possessed
of an ungovernable temper and would in
frenzy, fire any article at him that came
within reach. The wife denied every
adulterous charge and alleged that King
squandered her money and thea failed
to support her. The jury returned
verdict for the defendant and granted
her divorce aud the custody of her
child.
