prestige of the great powers, and the
Cretans have already sent delegates to
Admiral Canavaro, commanding the
combined fleets, notifying them that
they will decline to entertain proposals
for autonomy so long as Djeveed Pasha

the executive officials of national labor
organizations will come to Wheeling for

come, there is much uncertainty, though
it is claimed the result will be the call

DEBS' MEETINGS

| FAIRMONT, 7, w. Va, July 25.-Eugene
V. Debs held three good meetings at the
various mines today and is confident
that the men will be gotten out although
he will not say he expects the move to-
morrow. The general impression is that
If the break is not made tomorrow it
will not be made at ALL Today the ope-
rators succeeded in keeping any of their
men from the meetings, and it looks easy
to keep them in the mines. Mahon left
this afternoon for Clarksburg, where he
and Rhea addressed a good meeting.
All the mines are guarded by deputies
and no men are allowed on the compan-
les grounds A body of organized men
will stay at the different mines tonight.
and a herculean effort is to be made to
induce the men not to go to work to-
morrow morning. Rumors of all kinds
are afloat tonight, but no trouble is ex-
pected. Tomorrow will certainly settle
the strike one way or another, so far as
this region is concerned.
Later-It was learned that the depu
ties were supplied with Winchester rifles
and dispatched to the New York and
Cleveland company's mines. The re-
quest for deputies it is said, came from
1sAi' i|C <aiiultt, w HO reviewed WOrQ tnat
a large body Of men were marching to-
ward the mines, coming from the direc-
tion of McKeesport and the Youghio-
gheny district. Nothing more defirite
than the above Is known here.
THE MINERS MEETING
CLARKSBURG, W. Va, July 25.-The |
miners meeting advertised for today |
las proved a great success from the
miners standpoint. On every train |
scores of miners arrived. About 500 |
miners and double that number of citi-
sens listened to the speeches. ]. w.
aea of Chicago, vice president of the |
Painters and Decorators union, spoke |
f the benefits derived from organized
abor.
w. D. Mahon, president of the National
street Car union, stated that if this
trike was lost it would be on account
t West Virginia miners, and that a
boycott would be declared
gainst all West Virginia coal in the
United States.
