Information has just been received
here to the effect that the italian bark
Fiducia. Captain Rzetob, from Pascou-
gala, on June 4. for Marseilles, was
spoken to on August 16 in latitude 1904
and reported having been boarded on
August 10 abreast of Cape Baba by
fourteen pirates. who fired into the
crew, ransacked the vessel. stole the
papers, charts. Instruments. provisions
and clothing Of the crew. cut the rum

was supplied with provisions and in

Mr. Sherman Reptile. to Japan.

Washington, Aug. 2O.-Secretary
Sherman has submitted to the Japan
ese government an answer to Japan's
last note relating to the annexation of
Hawaii to the United States. The an
swer was delivered to Mr.. Hoshi, the
Japanese minister, last Saturday. It
II in reply to Japan's note Of July 10th,
which up to that time, had not been ac-
knowledged.
Mr.. Sherman's answer is marked by
its friendly expression toward Japan,
which gives especial satisfaction In
view Of the somewhat strained rela.
tions resulting from the previous cor
respondence.
Two features are brought out by the
answer. 1t reiterates the position here
tofore taken by the secretary of state
as to the right and propriety of an
nexing Hawaii to the United States.
With this. however, is coupled an as
surance that the interests of Japan in
Hawaii will be fully safeguarded. 1t
also expresses satisfaction at the plan
Of arbitration between Japan and Ha-
wall. on the question of Japanese i'm
migration to Hawaii.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
Courts Decide That Strikers Must Not In
terfere with Miners.

Courts Decide That Strikers Must Not In.
terfere with Miners.
Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. 1S.-This was
operators day, and from present ap-
pearances they have made most
effective move and have nearly, II not
quite, checked their opponents, the
striking coal miners. The courts decree
to-day In making permanent the prelim-
mary Injunction restraining the str1k-
ers from camping, marching or In any
manner interfering with the New York
and Cleveland Gas Coal COmpany's
mines has had the effect Of almost de-
pleting the camps, and apparently q
general generalization among tho
campers exists.
In order to follow up their advantage
the operators held largely attended
meeting tonight at the Monongahela
their mines with or without force. II
force seems to be unavoidable, 1T Is the
intention to start a certain few mines
at once under the protection Of depu-
ties, and whatever expense may result
will be charged pro rata by the mine
owners.
Uriah Billingham, in charge Of the
camp at Plum Creek, put a damper on
the campers at that place today. He
had Just returned from the city where
he heard the courts decision In the in
junction cases. He told the men there
would be no more marching and no
need Of such large number of men
at the camp. He advised the men to
disperse to their respective homes and
get work wherever they could. At this
camp, where yesterday there were 800
men, tonight are less than 100.
Sandy Creek camp is practically
abandoned. and 1t is not known wheth-
er 1t will be opened again or not An
told there are less than $50 men now
encamped about the three mines.
The small showing of men at the
camps has apparently encouraged the
De Armits and It is expected they will
make the attempt to start their mines
in full at once.

Org.nised Labor Asked 70 Ass,ss the Coal
Miners,

0rg.nised Labor Asked 70 Asssss the Coal
Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 2O-The Ma
tional Executive Board of the Zine
Workers adjourned to-day after having
issued the call for the meeting Of or
ganized labor to be held in st. Louis,
August Both. The board rejected the
proposition Of the Pittsburg operators
for a conference to arbitrate the wage
dispute in that district, claiming that
such action would be prejudicial to the
interests Of the miners at large. The
board is ready to consider overtures for
the arbitration Of the issues of the
great strike only when these overtures
come from all the operators in the COM
petitive district, which includes Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois, West Virginia and
Pennsylvania. The board has decided
not to devIate from the established
policy until the result of the st. Louis
conference is known. The aggressive
work In a field will be continued and
the efforts to spread the strike in the
West Virginia district will be re-
newed.
The success or failure Of the strike
hangs upon the result OF the confer
ence, the call for which has been in
dorsed by Samuel Gompers, president
OF the American Federation of Labor,
and ]. b. Sovereign, general master
workman of the Knights of Labor.
They maintain that the fight now being
waged by the miners is one of COM
mon interest to common labor through
out the country. At the st. Louis con-
ference all labor organizations will be
asked to join issues with the miner.

WHEAT AT A DOLLAR
BIO ADVANCE AT AL POINTS
Highest Price BID It New YoRk-Thought
That II WIN Go Much Higher.

New York, Aug. 2O-At 1:4O to-day
September wheat in the local market
reached the long-talked-of goal Of 81
Per bushel. Naturally enough the incl
dent created q tremendous sensation on
the 6Oor Of the exchange and was
greeted with prolonged cheers from
half . thousand throats, being re-
echoed from the crowded galleries.
Several times during the early after
noon the bulls snapped the price with
in &c OF the desired mark, but a return
wave of selling orders each time swept
It back again. The final and successful
effort was made under the impulse Of
export rumors reaching enormous fig
ures. September was hanging around
001A when the export news was first
whispered about, and at once danced
upwards In respOnce to excited local
buying. Higher and higher it whlrled,
watched by everybody on the floor, un-
til the big black finger on the record
dial pumped fairly on the even figure
and "dollar" wheat in New York was
an accomplished fact.
Now that the bulls have attained their
boast, they are as far as ever from be
ing satisfied and claim that the wave Of
bull sentiment which has spread like
1re all over the country will carry the
price here to at least SIPS per bushel
and perhaps even higher. That dollar
wheat Is already q thing of the past
was demonstrated on the curb when
| further clamorous demands from high
| strung local shorts raised the price to
| $1.OO15, or a cent bushel advance
from the official close. About 10000
bushels of wheat changed hands at 81
this afternoon.
From the very outset to-day the local
dealings were marked by great excite
ment Everybody felt that dollar wheat
was In the air, and while there were
| occasional let-ups when traders un-
