SITUATION AT JACKSON.
Train to he Kept in Waiting for the
Few Remaining People.

JACKSON, Miss, Sept. 16.-This city is
almost deserted tonight, most of the people
having fed to the North There are no
cases of yellow fever here. but the presence
of ''hlack jack at Edwards, as stated yes
terday caused a panic and the business
men closed their stores. Mayor Wharton
to-day issued the following proclamation to
the public:
1--WE take pleasure in informing our citi-
zens to-day that we are still free from any
sickness or suspicious fevers. We have
strengthened very materially our quarantine
regulations and will continue to do so as
long as danger is threatened. We have an
efficient corps of men and officers looking
after our sanitary condition, which, we are
glad to state, is the best we have ever had
at this time of the year
1--WE can assure you with the utmost con-
fidence that we feel safe and that we will
keep the yellow fever out of our city. We
expect to rigidly enforce our quarantine or
dinanceS, both as to trains and mails; also
the regulation in regard to keeping people
off the streets at night. We call on every
citizen of the town to assist us in enforcing
our laws.
1--WE understand large number of idlers
and loafers have congregated here and we
will at once take steps to put all unem-
ployed people to work on the streets. Per-
sons who have TO employment and persist
lions will be arrested as Migrants, and we
advise these people TO get out into the
country at once if they do not want to be
arrested for vagrancy.
I'VE renew our promise to our citizens
who have remained with us that if fever
should break out they will be notified i'm
mediately and train will be furnished to
carry them out of the State. Should it be
necessary to do this we will give the people
at least six hours notice, SO that there will
be no necessity for any great rush. This
train will be prOvisioned iced and watered
so that 1t will not be necessary to stop this
side the Illinois state line, thus protecting
Our people from hunger and thirst
The state board received message from
DR.. Purnell at Edwards to-day saying that
three new cases of fever which he has not
yet seen are reported. Captain Montgomert
and Mrs Anna Henry have black vomit
this morning. There is great need for
nurses, which the board will endeavor to
supply. Purnel says people in the country
want supplies from Edwards and some Of
the Edwards people want to leave for their
plantations. The board instructed him to en-
force rigid quarantine. Edwards is strong
ly guarded, as are the Austin and Cham
pion places, the only country places in
fected.

been for some time before the government
i Is desirable that public attention should
be drawn to them.
The Standards leading editorial deals
with the letter Of the governor of the Bank
of England to the chancellor of the ex-
chequer and says: "A more absurd and
mischievous letter has seldom been penned
by man in a position of high responsible
ity- II may be assumed that the question
was put one means of Kidding the gov
ernment civilly of the opportunities OF the
Mckinley administration, for Sir Michael
Hicks Beach is neither a bimetallist nor
man of weak character. To such re-
quest, whatever its motive, there can be
but one straightforward, manly answer,
namely-that. as the bank has promised TO
pay all its notes in gold, 1t could not admit
silver into its reserve Instead of giving
such an answer, and thus separating the
bank finally from perniciouS agitation the
governor, apparently without the knowl-
the chancellor of the exchequer that the
bank was prepared TO hold one-fifth of the
bullion held against its note issue in silver,
provided that the French mints were
opened to the free coinage or
silver, and that the prices at
which silver is procurabe and salable
should be at any given time satisfactory.
Why on earth should we help the United
States out of their currency dilemmas at
the expense of our own credit? Have
they ever shown the least desire to help us
in anything? Do not their politicians
fout us and places endless distractions in
the way of our trade, as II the Two coun1
points of view, the action of the govern
ment of the Bank of England is grievous
mistake without either excuse or palliation.
India is cited in support of the policy. But
India has the remedy for monetary scarcity
In her own hands. Let her reopen her
minis and her strained money markets will
find immediate relief. 1t would be interest
ing to have the reply sent the governor by
the chancellor of the exchequer and better
still to have the whole correspondence. In
the half light of yesterdays statement az
the semi-annual meeting the episode looks
as if there might be something behind 1t.
BERLIN, Sept. 16.-The National Zeitung.

England was prepared to hold in silver one

ISSUE says: THE unfavorable reception
the announcement has met with from all
the organs &C British trade leaves no room

commercial bodies and to the ultimate
fate of the latest American attempt to Sc

humor."

BLISS WILL NOT RUN.
Denial of Latest RumOrs COncernfn
the New York MnyOraIty.


WASHINGTON Sept. 16.-The President
was very busily engaged to-day. Several
members of the Cabinet were in consulta-
ton with him during the morning. Con-
gressmen and other distinguished visitors
called, and all day long the antechambers
were thronged with office seekers. Among
those who saw the President were Secre-
taries Sherman, Bliss, Alger, Assistant Sec
rotary Day, Assistant Secretary Roosevelt
and Senator Plat. 1t is learned to-day
from absolutely authoritative sources that
the statements published to the effect that
Senator Platt had urged Secretary Bliss to
accept the regular Republican nomination
for mayor of Greater New York and that
the President had added his appeal to that
of the New York senator, are utterly with
out foundation. Secretary Bliss, it trans
pires, did not participate in the conference
between the President and Senator Plat
and other New Workers, yesterday. Some
months ago Senator Plat urged upon Sec
rotary Bliss the badvisability of accepting
the nomination. 1t is also learned that
about that time the moving spirits of the
Citizens Union made a practical tender of
the nomination to Secretary Bliss, but lie
declined then to entertain the proposition
of either the regulars or the Independents.
Had he yielded then it is probable that
Seth Low would not have been nominated
and that the Republicans and Independents
would present a solid front to Tammany.

Meeting of the Two Committees to
Fix BituminOus Scale.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Sept. 16.-The In
diana miners and operators held separate
conventions to-day, and tonight joint
committee took up the consideration of the
wage scale. 1t has been ten years since the
bitun4inous miners of Indiana were as fully
represented as in their convention to-day
Secretary Kennedy says there are delegates
from mining camps which never before sent
delegates. The operators are all repre-
scented again, the first time in several years.
The hitch is in the northern Indiana field,
where the operators think they are likely
to be subjected to competition with cheaper
mined coal from the Danville or Grape
Creek Qll.) field, as they have been here
tofore. The miners say this is not likely,
because the miners there are united and de-
termined to remain out until their opera
tors pay the scale. Three delegates are
here from Grape Creek TO assure the Indi-
ara miners that their Illinois brethren will
no longer subject themselves to the charge
OF working at less than the scale price,
thereby inJuring the cause of the Indiana
miners. The report is that the Illinois OPP
orators are willing to pay the scale, but
some of them object to recognizing the min
erS' organization by signing contract with
a committee. Some of the Indiana oper-
ators from the northern field last May re-
fused to deal with the organization, but
they are acquiescing in the present joint
conference.
The members of the miners scale COM
mittee are President Knight Secretary
Kennedy, Van Horn, of Washington; Har-
greaves, of Coal Bluff; Llewellyn, of Lin
ton; Lewis, of Rosedale, and Pierce. of

reason for settlinr the s,r,,...

COLUMBUS. O.. Sept. ia circular was
issued to-day by the national executive
board of the United Mine Workers to the
miners of the country setting forth the
reason for the recent settlement of the
great strike. Three conditions are cited IN
der which it was expected the strike might
be won, as follows:
'First-The miners would quit work in
sufficient numbers to create a coal famine
and rather than have such a condition of
affairs continue for any length of time the
industrial public would insist that our de-
mand be conceded and the full rate of
wages paid.
"Second-That sufficient number would
agree with us to call a joint conference of
miners and operators from the fields in
volyed to mutually agree as to higher prices
for mine work
"Third-That the fear of loss of con-
tracts or the inability in some large and in
fluential district to fill contracts this sea-
son if work was not resumed soon would
lead to negotiations and propositions to ter
minats the struggle.

Statement as to the Position of the
Observation-Disclosures Marriage.

SIAILA, Sept 1.-THE Second Brigade of
the Mohmand punitive force, commanded
by General Jeffries, reached the foot of

Sikhs, commanded by Major Des Voeux
and Lieutenant Pratt. Surgeon Prall, Mrs.

nurses were also in the fort. At o'clock
in the afternoon the enemy closed around
the place to within ten yards

tribesmen and captured three standards.
Another, with ten men. rushed out to help

pressed by the enemy and before returning
they captured three more standards. A ma
tive captain, with two Sikhs, dashed to the
rescue of wounded comrade, cut their
way through the enemy and brought him
safely into the fort.
There was similar hard fighting through
out Monday last and until the artillery of
General Yeatman-Biggs finally scattered

rison OF Fort Gulistan had been at their
posts Tor thirty consecutive hours. The
casualties of the British force were two
men killed and thirty-eight wounded The
women OF the garrison attended the wound
ed under an unceasing heavy fire. Ii is re-
ported that the Afridis and Orakzais have
left the SANTANA territory for their homes
