HEAVY TRAVEL.
A Crush of Business Con-

OMAHA, NEBR., July 3.-Notwithstand-
ing the belief of the railroad men that
yesterday would wind up the rush of the
Christian Endeavorers to San Francisco
to-day has been a busy one.
The Union Pacific limited this morning
had fourteen cars and No. 3 this afternoon
went out in two sections. 1t is reported
from Chicago that big crowds will leave
that city tonight, SO that tomorrow
promises to be as busy Sunday as the
passenger and ticket men have had for
several years. Most of these are scatter
ing parties OF Endeavorers and many who
are not delegates but Will stay while IN
San Francisco. Many of the tourists have
waited until to-day before starting on
their Western trips, as they preferred 10
follow the cru, b OF the EndeaVorers.
For the first time since the train has
been i'll operation the Union Pacitic's
"Over!and Limited" train this morning
ran out with fourteen cars. This is eight
cars in excess of the average number, IN g
Overland Limited being a six-car train.
The monster engine No. 1900 pulled out
with the long tram and looked powerful
enough to put the heavy train through on
schedule time.

discoveries made in January by Grend ell
and Hunt on the borders of the Lybian
desert of the oldest papyri known bear
in the words OF Christ. The value OF
this find, interest in which will arouse the
whole Christian world, proves inestima-
bic. 1t comprises a dozen leaves, each
81 by 315 inches in dimensions, remark
ably we'll preserved and clearly written in
Unical characters of the ancient Greek.
The dates are about sixty years after the
crucihxion. 1t has easily been translated
and found to consist of detached sayings
OF Christ, without context, each begin
ming with the words, "Jesus saith" The
translation will soon be published by the
Egypt exploration fund. An immense
edition at few cents per copy will be pro-
vided. so as to reach everybody
Professor Petrie's winter explorations
in Egypt have also been wonderfully fruit
full. The bulk of his collection is in two
groups, separated by gap of more than
thirty centuries, the later documents be-
ing an enormous mass of papyri from the
Roman city OF Behnesa, west of the Nile
and about loo miles south of Cairo.
The earlier document contains great
variety of objects which throw food of
light upon the habits of people evidently
in a high state of civilization. who occu.
pied lower Egypt centuries before Aors-
ham, and a most as far back as the date
assigned by Arch bishop Usshsr to the cre-
alton of the world. The papvri comprise
1000 documents. They were not found in
a secret chamber or a cave. They were
mixed up with lot of soil, and evidently
represented the clearing out OF library,
whether by the hands of some reformer or
a barbarian who mated knowledge. The
rolls represent a wide range of Htera-
ture-hstory, law and ethics. Be-
sides there are number of earlier Chris
tian documents, among them some which
were current in the churches at very
early date, and in some cases may have
been consulted by the authors of the four
gospels.
The contents of this library probab bly,
range from the first to he sixth century.
1t has furnished to the literary archeolo-
gist al many papyri as hitherto existed in
the whole Of Europe. The discoverer ex-
poets that from ten to twenty years will
be occupied before the papyri are fully de-

NEW YORK, N. Y, July 3.-Secretary
AIger to-day witnessed a successful test of
the firing OF the 12-inch gun from dis
appearing carriage at Sandy Hook. This
enormous gun. weighing about fifty-two
tons, was hred successfully, the carriage
raising the great piece of ordnance nine
feet in the air, so that it projected over
:he parapet, and Immediately after the
discharge lowering it again easily and
gracefully.
Ten-inch guns have been mounted and
fired successfully on disappearing car
riages, but until now it has been a matter
OF doubt whether a 12-inch gun could be
so operated. A Pinch gun has more than
one and half times as much energy as
10-inch gun. Heretofore 12-inch guns
have been mounted on lifts III very

thc Si'uation.
COLUMBUS. OHIO, July 3.-Reports re-
ceived by The National officers OF the
United Mine Workers of America indicate
that the cessation OF work tonight by the
coal miners of the United States, in ac-
cordance with orders, was general.
This order has been expected for some
time by the miners in Ohio, and little
surprise has been caused by the official
circular calling the men out. In an in
terview National President Ratchford
said:
"Our present suspension is not of our
choice. 1t has been forced upon US by a
continuous reduction in wages, until a
point was reached where living by our
industry was no longer possible.
"Our miners everywhere throug hout the
country were ready for it as last resort,
and there is no doubt that it will be the
greatest movement of the kind that this
country has ever seen. / am not fearful
that the miners will in any case violate
law or order. This will be peaceful con-
test, and violence must not enter into it
in anv degree"
BELLAIRE, OHIO, July 3-The coal
mines III Belmont County and the fifth
sub. Ohio district are all closed down. The
miners quit work on receipt OF orders
from National headquarters and no miner
among the 1850 in the county or 1900 in
the district will work unless permission is

tonight in response to a call. Trouble
between whites and blacks is expected.
Three nights ago Mrs Brown, the wife of
respectable white miner, discovered a
negro crawling across her bed. She
screamed. He fled.
A negro named Jim Thomas sale he
knew who the negro was. This morning
Thomas body was found filled with lead
just above Blossburg. An inquest will be
held Monday. Further trouble is likely,
as both negroes and whites are going
about armed.

so far as can be estimated are as follows:
Ohio, "a, 200; Illinois. 1000; Indiana, 80,
0G0, and in West Virginia about $4,000
men.
The miners employed in the vicinity
OF CIR ensburg will not join the strike,
bur, on the contrary, are preparing for a
rush of work. The Greensburg, Madison,
Hempfield and Carbon coal companies
employ about 1900 men, who have never
been identified with the Miners Union
and have always been paid the highest
scale of wages.
The Inauguration OF the general strike
means steady work for them. During the
general strike of two years ago the miners
and operators of Greensburg literally
coined money.
