DESPERATE MINERS.

March Through the Streets and Try to
| Stop Others From their Work.
Pittsburg, Pa, July 29--oak Hill, in
| the vicinity of Turtle creek, Plum
creek and Sandy creek of Deermitt
county, was invaded after midnight by
an army of strikers who came to at
tend a great mass meeting to be held
near the mines today. 1t was esti-
mated at daybreak that there were
several thousand miners encamped up
on the hills surrounding the property
of the New York and Cleveland Gas
and Coal company's property. Near
ly all carried heavy walking sticks and
some were armed. There were no
threats of violence, however, and no
indication of drinking. Long before
daylight the strikers were up and after
eating their frugual meal prepared for
the days work. The intention was
to see as many Deermitts men as pos
sible before they got into the pits this
morning. About o'clock 5000 strik-
crs assembled at Turtle creek and
headed by three brass bands, with flags
and banners flying, marched past the
houses occupied by the Deermitt min
ers. The strikers hooted and yelled
and then marched to the mines where
they planted themselves before the
pits compelling Deermitt's men to run
the gauntlet to get to work. A short
time later Sheriff Lowrey, who was
wired to for assistance, arrived firm
Pittsburg with fifty deputies armed
with winchesters. The strikers quiet
ly Withdrew and the deputies were
placed on guard. Everything is quiet
now. The mass meeting today is to
be the largest demonstration since the
inauguration of the strike. Debs will
make the principal speech.

UNCLE SAM FRAUDED.
False Survey Claims Have Been Paid
by the Government

False Survey Claims Have Been Paid
by the Government
New York, July ga special to the
Tribune from Washington says: The
Interior department, under the direc-
ton of the new administration, has un-
dertaken to dispose of the Benson
contracts, which had their beginning
in the seven years from 1878 t. 1885 in
some of the western states. These dis
putes consisted in false surveys which
cost the United States more than ST.
900, 900.
Commissioner Lamoreux first pre-
pared an estimate to go into one Of the
appropriation bills for $50,O00 to sat-
isfy all of the remaining claims in these
fraudulent surveys, but Secretary Fran
els would not approve the estimate and
it was not submitted to Congress.
When Binghom Hermann succeeded
Lamoreux as commissioner of the land
office, he discovered that his prede-
cessor had approved the accounts for
the five remaining Benson surveys"
and had sent them in all amounting to
$50, 900, of which $4,000 was for surveys
and $4,000 for other claims, to the
Treasury department for payment as
soon as an appropriation might be
available. This was also done against
the protest of Inspector, Collier. Com
missioner Hermann caused the agents
of the Interior department to conduct
an investigation. He sent an order TO
the Treasury department for division
of the accounts of the Interior depart
ment He also issued notice to Ben
son and his associates to show cause
why the paymentSf their remaining
claims should notIbe suspended.
Benson, with his attorneys, urged
Commissioner Hermann to let Lam
oreux's approval of the accounts
stand. Benson finally propcssd COM
promise. This compromise, Commits
sioner Hermann entered into, and by
the terms the surveys will be made
over again and when approved by the
agents of the land office, will be paid
for. The United States, for the time
being, agrees not to prosecute civil
suits to recover money which was paid
out of the treasury \on fraudulent
claims.

preceded the adoption of the conference
report. Senator Burrows, who was a
member of the conference committee,
made short speech defending the res
toration of the 81 duty on white pine
lumber, and replying to aspersions cast
upon him and incidentally upon the
State Of Michigan by Senator Petit
grew. He said the lumber schedule
was one of the most meritorious Of the
bill, which would restore to the labor
of the country the uncounted millions
of which it had been robbed by four
years of free trade. The conference
report was adopted by majority of
ten, the same majority by which the
bill passed the Senate.

their husbands had left them. They
said that their husbands had gone to

formerly employed in local printing

Man Returns For His Brother to Help

New York, July 29.-The World says:
Henry Gauldier, thirty-five years old,
was found in this city unconscious and
bleeding from a wound in his head.
Police picked him up and carrying
him to a saloon. His skull was prob
ably fractured.
He telegraphed for his brother, Phil
lip, of Laconia, N. H., asking him to
join him at once.
Gauldier says he was direct from the
Klondike, having left Dawson City,
June 10. He came on the steamer
Portland, the last steamer down.
When he arrived in New York he went
to the Manhattan hotel. He had a re-
ceipt for $500 deposited with the clerk
of the hotel. With 500 he started out
10 do the town. lie is not quite clear
as to how he reached Harlem or how
he got to where he was found, but he
had been robbed of the greater part of
his money. When made comfortable
in the hospital ne said:
L WISH Il udu DGlSy Will
me (meaning his gum when those ruff
fans attacked me-"
He went to the Klondike a year and
a half ago. He stopped at Janeau and
went thence to Dominion creek. He
located several claims. The stories
told, he said of the finds in that section
do not begin to tell the whole truth.
He refused to say how much money
he had brought back but said it was
not uncommon to find fortune with
in few weeks.
II only left at this time because a
new conner told me of my fathers
death.
II ran away from home and have
not seen my people for twenty years.
Knowing that 1 had a rich find and
wishing to share it with my people, /
came back to get my brother to go
with me. I'VE will find our claims in
good hands with money ready to be
picked up"
Gauldier's story seems to be veri-
fed by papers found in his pocket, in
Guiding receipts for lumber delivered
on the banks of the Yukon, a receipt
for a berth on the steamer Portland
and last the hat mark of a tradesman
in Seattle.
If his skull is not fractured he may
be able to leave the hospital in a day
or two.

FLOUR REPORT.

General Condition of the Weeks Ex-
port and Sales.
Minneapolis, Mimi, July 29.-The
Northwestern Miller gives the flour
output last week as follows:
Minneapolis-Few mills are running
this week, owing to dull trade, and
the output is estimated at 250, 900 bar
rels. Flour last week was slow, Min
neapolis sales approximating only 1909
barrels. Foreigners were out of the
market to such an extent that they
were hardly making offers of any sort
The domestic trade took a moderate
quantity in small lots up to the break
on Thursday and then subsidized. The
orders booked the rest of the week
were very small. Export shipments of
flour were Sc, 100 barrels against a.
100 the week before.
ST. Louis-There was good inquiry
last week for export flour and quite
a number of small orders were booked.
The outlook for flour business was ex-
cellent. Domestic trade is picking up
but so far not a great deal has been
done.
Milwaukee-The output promises to
be large again this week. Most mill
lers report a large volume of trade
last week, though on small margins,
buyers asking for concessions and gem
orally getting them.
Superior Duluth-The output this
week is estimated at between $4,000
and $4,000 barrels. Trade is very dull
and the tendency is to curtaiI the pro-
duction. Foreigners are largely out of
the market.

Another step in this policy has been
brought to the attention of the State
department in a report from Consul
Miller, at Port Stanley, Falkland Is
lands, who reports that surveys are
now in progress at that point under
the direction of Col. Lewis, of the
Royal Engineers. for the establishment
of a naval station and hospital Such
a station at this point, with repair
shops and Notifications, would be of
