COLUMBUS, o., Sept, s-The inter
state miners convention adjourned this
evening until tomorrow morning with
out having taken vote on the question
of accepting or rejecting the proposed
settlement of the strike.
The prospects for the acceptance OF
the settlement are somewhat doubtful;
in fact canvass of the situation shows
majority of the votes, unless some
change should be brought about, will be
cast against II.
The most important action OF the con-
ventloR to-day was In determining the
basis OF representation. Some OF Inc
delegates wanted rule that no delegate
should be allowed to cast more than SIN
votes. This, II adopted, II ia claimed,
would have settled the question OF the
acceptance OF the strike settlement very
quickly II was the sentiment or the
convention. however, that representa-
ton should be fixed so that all miners
should have voice In the settlement
Accordingly II was decided that one vote
should be cast for every 100 miners rep
resented This makes the votes to be
cast by each state about as follows:
Western Pennsylvania, 23O; Ohio, 2SO;
West Virginia, 10; Indiana, 60; Illinois,
200. The Illinois vote, which will be cast
against the acceptance OF the operators,
proposition, will about offset the vote OF
western Pennsylvania pittsburgh dis
trict). The vote of Ohio is about equal
ly divided on the proposition; also the
West Virginia vote. This practically
leaves the balance OF power in the hands
OF the Indiana delegates. Should they
vote with Illinois, which some OF the
delegates say they have instructions to
do, by inference. II not by direct Ian
guage, the proposed settlement will un-
doubtedly be defeated.
The leaders OF the miners are doing
some quiet missionary work tonight
and have hopes that they will be able to
turn the tide In favor of q settlement.

Those who Escaped.

Those who Escaped.
HAVANA, Oct 19.-The Spanish gen.
eraI, Jiminez Castellanos, accompanied
by his son, Lieut. Adolfo Castellanos,
Can't Pedro Aguilar, his aides de camp,
twenty-nine other officers and seventy
sick soldiers, has arrived here from
Puerto Principe. Three additional sur
vivoIs Of the wreck of the coastinS
steamer Triton which went ashore be-
tween Dominica and Mariel, on the
north coast of the province of Pinar
del Rio on Saturday morning last, have
arrived here. The scene among the
men, women and children when the
steamer went ashore, the survivors
state, was horrible. When the Triton
foundered there were 230 persons
aboard her, passengers and crew, and
so far only forty-nine of this number
have been heard from.
Gen. Weyler has ordered the release
from the Isle of Pines, the Spanish
penal settlement off the coast of Cuba,
of eleven who were, it is alleged, con-
cerned in the uprising which resulted
in the imprisonment of Senorita Evan
gelina Cossio Y CisneroS, who recently
escaped from the Casa de Recojidas in
this city and who is now in New York.
The release of Abram Sosa, Juan Es-
perto Torres, Jose Bastard Godoy and
seventeen other political prisoners has
also been ordered by Gen. Weyler.

MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.

MINNEAPOLIS. Oct. 1s-The wheat market
opened lower and irregular. There was a
moderate weakness early, then a refractory
firmness, and again counter weakness and
slight frmng up, with dullness prevailing
throughout the morning session. The trad
ing included little of outside trade on both
sides, but mostly selling, holders having be-
come tired of holding in the face of the down
ward tendency shown. Otherwise the bulk of
the trading was of the scalping order. In
fue noes were largely of a reflective order,
foreign markets being generally lower, in
sympathy with American advices, and again
in turn affecting home market. The
news of the day was meager, but some of it
was of Importance. Gossip had something
about the rains in the winter wheat country,
quoting Primes report of last week Prime
says something once week. and gossip says
what he says seven days in the week, and
