LONDON, Aug. 19.-The correspondent of

The murder of Senior Canovas del Castillo

Coal Becoming Scarce.

WHEELING, w. Va, Aug. 1S.-The local
situation is beginning to grow serious. The
city gas works had what was always
deemed sufficient advance supply of coal
from the Floersheim mines, on the Wheel
ing division of the Baltimore G Ohio road
but this supply is growing decidedly short
and new arrangements will soon have to
be made Coal is selling in local yards at
u cents a bushel just double the usual
price Slack brings 6 cents, and both are
hard to get at those rates There are 800
families in Wheeling in need of coal. while
all manufacturers that do not use gas are
hampered for fuel On the Ohio side of the
river manufacturing establishments using
thousands of bushels of coal daily have had
their supplies cut down or smut OIL.

The Price of ConI.

PITTSBURG. Pa, Aug. 1S.-The price of
coal, which is reported to have advanced at
almost every point in the country east of
the Missouri river since the great strike be-
gan seven weeks ago. shows no material in
crease at Pittsbur8. The ruling figure in
barge lots is 5Q5A cents per bushel. There
is no shortage of the supply and demand is
only ordinary The present holdings in the
Pittsburg market are not far from seven
million bushels, and the greater part of this
will be held by the operators until the sup
ply at the Ohio-river markets has reached
low ebb, when, with an opportune rise, it
will be shipped below at profit larger than
ever before.

of the President of the French republic to
the Gear of all the Russias President Faure
takes with him three hundred medals IN

the date August 1897"
The semi-official Novoe Vremya recently
threw a damper upon the visit of the
French President to Russia by denying that
M. Faure would be accompanied by his wife
or daughter, thus recalling the unpleasant
discussion which arose during the visit of
the Car and Czarina to Paris regarding the
precedence to which the wives of presidents
or chief ladies of the republic are entitled.
The municipal authorities of St Peters
burg will present three silver loving cups
to the French war ships which accompany

BLOOD MAY FLOW.
Operators VIII Use PinI<ertOns to Pro-
tect NOnuniOn Diggers.

CLEVELAND, o., Aug. 1S.-The decision
reached by the operators of the Pittsburg
district at their conference here last night
to open their mines regardless of the con-
sequences will probably cause serious
trouble According to local coal men it is
the intention of the Pittsburg operators to
engage Pinkerton men to protect their nom
union men This action on their part will
probably precpitate a terrible climax to
the great strike, and the operators admit
that blood will probably flow. In speaking
of the probable result of the operators de-
cison, LOTUS Cuddy, Of the Cuddy-Mullen
Coal Company, said to-day: IF it is found
necessary to do so a whole army OF de-
tectiVes will be employed to protect our
men, and if the worst comes they will be
supplied with Gatling guns and other equip
ments to convince the strikers that we
mean business. There will be no delay in
inaugurating this movement, and the first
step will be taken Thursday, although
do not care to state what the first action
will be"
Mr. Cuddys statement is upheld by ]. P
Zerbe president of the Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania Coal Company, who said: I'VE are
determined to open our mines again in
spite of the strikers and | see no reason
why we should not succeed There are
try who are willing to fight for their pro-
lection, although l am Of the opinion that
we will be able to protect them ourselves
l think that when the old miners find that
they cannot prevent the mines being opened
they will go back to work again peace
ably"
The operators conference last night was
adjourned to meet again next Wednesday
in PittSburg. at which all the firms repre-
sented Tuesday will be present

PITTSBURG, Aug. 1S.-The meeting of
Pittsburg district coal operators, which
was begun at Cleveland last night, was
concluded here tonight shortly after mid
night None of those attending the meet
ing would divulge the proceedings. The
only statement given out was the fact that
the action taken at the Cleveland meeting
was ratified and even emphasized; and that
the president, Peter NJ. Hitchcock. had
been empowered to appoint a committee
tomorrow who will seek a conference with
the miners officials, looking to a settle
ment of the strike. 1t is understood that
the basis to be urged for a settlement by
the operators is the 54-cent rate for mining,
and should the miners refuse TO accede TO
this and their old employees decline to re-
turn TO work, the operators will at once
import men and start their mines at any
hazard AS it Is extremely unlikely that
an amicable arrangement can be effected,
the mine owners have agreed to share the
expense attendant upon the starting of the
miners. and no eXpedient will be overlooked
in the accomplishment of the object aimed
at the breaking of the strike. The mines
to be experimented with have not as yet
been selected, but it is said the break will
be made at four different places widely
scattered throughout the district in order
to as much as possible disconcert the strike
leaders.

In tsholiday edition THE TIMES,
as already explained, was COMPEL,
ed to omit several notices which
should have appeared and which
are published, with apologies, in
this issue
As the time for the publication
of the paper drew near, an unfore-
seen rush of work overwhelmed
the office, delaying the appearance
of the paper and making it neces-
sary to enlarge it. Even after all
the space considered necessary
had been provided, applicants con.
tinued to come in, and it was inn
possible for the oyerworked Office
force to comply with the demands
made upon them in the limited
time allotted. Certain notices and
advertisements which we're the
last written and set up had to be
omitted from the trade edition,
greatly to the regret of the man
agement, and appear in the present
issue.
The general satisfaction express
ed by the public is extremely
gratifying to the managers, who
feel that in the issue Of the holiday
edition they have not only done a
work which is creditable to the
paper, but have benefited their
patrons and advertisers and ac-
compIished a task which will be of
great and lasting advantage to the

LEYSER 4 co.

In an enumeration of Green
yiIle's popular business houses ar
honorable place belongs of right
to Leyser & Co., whose large,
choice and well selected dry goods
store is one of the best and most
popular of the many that orna-
ment the south side Of Washing
ton Avenue. An especial charm
of the establishment is the price
of the goods. 1t can safely be
said that a surprise in this respect
awaits the shopper who goes to
Leyser's for any article of cloth
ing, either suits, dress materials,
underwear, shoes, hats, gloves, or
goods for household furnishing.
The line of children's clothing is
also very complete including suits
for both school and dress occas-
ions, and at marvellously low
price. The force of clerks in at
tendance is large and make
study to please and satisfy their
callers. Mr.. Leyser has had much
experience in the business, and
understands thoroughly the needs
Of his patrons and the public of
Greenville and the country, The
we'll chosen stock presents an at
traetive appearance, being DIS
played to fine advantage in the
handsome and well arranged store
building, and the establishment is
especially a favorite with all in
search of bargains in dress goods,
staple dry goods and clothing
The prices which Mr.. Leyser
charges are made possible by the
good Judgment and experience
with which he buys his stock.
