EUGENE V. DEBs, ;

Mr.. Dehs expressed himself as pleased
at the outcome Of the national confer
ence and is hopeful of n speedy terml-
nation of the strike in favor of the
miners.
Messrs, Gompers, Sovereign and
Ratchford left early yesterday morning
for Charleston. where, as detailed in the
dispatches from the capital city, they
waited on Governor Atkinson and COM
planned of the Injunction proceedings in
Marion county. The newspaper cores
pondents knew OF the intended trip OF
the labor leaders to Charleston at mid
night, Tuesday, but were asked to re-
fraln from publishing the story. Not n
man violated the trust.
The Pittsburgh Leader prints what Is
claimed to be the inside developments
OF the labor leader conference at
Wheeling. The strike, 1t says, VIII be
lost or won within the next ten days or
two weeks. The plan OF campaign
mapped out has fixed that point to a
certainty. T. II. Morrlssey, OF the Rail-
road Firemen's Union, opposed the sug-
gestion of Ratchford to place the West
Virginia campaign In the hands OF
Debs. He said that while he had a
deep regard for Debs, the corporations
and the courts are prejudlced against
him. and he believed his pathway would
be a hard one. The naming OF n man
to manage the West Virginia campaign
was postponed by President Ratchford
who said he would make the appoints
ment within the next "a hours.

THE HARVARD CREW.

ing appliances, told one of the most in
fuential of Harvard graduates that he
would take the men who were not
deemed good enough by the varsity
coach and would guaratee to beat the
varsity crew with them. His offer was
not accepted. Those who know Davis
have al faith in every statement he
makes, aud it has yet to be proved that
he ever erred in Judgment in making or
rowing match; in fact, he was never
beaten himself, although be has rowed
over 1876 races.
Mr.. Davis was In Boston Tuesday on
flying visit, and was seen by reporter.
The talk naturally turned TO Harvard 8
chances and Mr.. Lehmann's methods.
Asked what he thought OF Mr..
Lehmann' 8 ideas of rowing and COACH
ing, Mr.. Davis replied:
"The American system of rowing and
of rigging is better than the Englisli-ln
fact il is the best in the world
"Do you think Mr.. Lehman will be
able to make Harvard VIM"
"Mr. lehman is very fine gentle
man and clever sportsman; that is his
personal side. His manner OF coaching
do not believe in, and my views are
shared by progressive water men.
