The cooLIE PROBLEM.

tt Does Not Worry Northern Illinois Min
5rs ms tho Action of Their Brother
Strikers In Agreeing to Work Uudor the
Scale.
Spring Valley, ILL.,, Nov. 10.-The
news that Cinnamon are to be inn
ported into the mines at Carbon Hill il
not considered very seriously at this
place. Men stood around the corners
yesterday in knots discussing the lat
est phase of the strike situation, but
the coolies did not interest shem as
much as the reported settlement at
Braceville, where it is stated the min
ers have accepted the operators offer.
The men in this part of the district are
indignant at the action of the Brace
vile men accepting a settlement be-
low the scale. The Spring Valley men
claim to have the strike won and the
leaders say that no matter if Brace
vile does return to work at nom
union scale, the Spring Valley men
will hold out until next May If nee
essary for the scale formulated at
Springfield. Ladd, Seatonville, La
Sale and Peru are equally firm. The
labor leaders here scoff at the idea of
the coolie movement being a success.
They say it is only a bluff.
committee of miners from here
will probably be sent to Braceville for
the purpose of inducing the men of
that place to reconsider their late ac-
ton. delegate convention of the
northern Illinois miners will be held
at Streatcr to-day and an effort will be
made to get the Braceville men to re-
scind the vote by which they decided
to go to work below the scale.
Springfield, ILL.,, Nov. 10.-A delega-
tlon of miners officials waited upon
Gov. Tanner yesterday in regard to
the rumored importation of large
body of Chinese miners into the Braid
wood field. The governor expressed
his sympathy with the white miners
and said that while he could not re-
strict the importation of Chinese min
ers, he would not permit them to enter
the state bearing arms, nor would he
permit the presence at the mines of
armed ex-Chicago policemen acting as
guards to the Chinese.
Braidwood, Ill, Nov. 1O.-Five hun
dred coal miners who have been on
strike since July 4 will return to work
in the Braceville mine to-day. The
| The men will receive T7I cents per
ton, an advance of 10 cents: no rent
will be collected for the strike period
and coal will be supplied to them at a
reduction of so cents per ton. Talk of
importing Chinese labor to fill the
places of strikers in the other mines of
this district continues to excite strong
comment among the strikers. Work
continues on the stockade at Carbon
Hill, where it is said the Chinese will
be put to work.
State Secretary Ryan, of the Miners
federation, stated yesterday that If
the Chinese are imported and set to
work in the northern coal field blood
shed will surely result and a riot be
instigated over the importation. The
action of the operators in importing
Chinese and setting them to work will
incite the strikers to open rebellion
and warfare will result

SOUND MONEY LEAGUE.
Its Executive Com mittee Meets in New
York and Formally Announces that Bl-
meta1lism Is Dead.

Its Executive Commlttse Meets in New
York and Formally Announces that BIZ
metaillsm Is Dead.
New York, Nov. 10.-The semi-an-
nual meeting of the executive commit
tee of the National Sound Money
league was begun here Tuesday. A
donation of 1000 to the indianapolis
Monetary league was made and $1,000
was ordered paid to NJ. C. George, OF
Oregon, for use in that state.
w. c. Cornwell. of Buffalo, reported
that as far as he could ascertain, both
in the eastern and western parts of
New York, the free silver sentiment
was dying out
j. S. Morton, vice president of the
league for Nebraska, and Judge w. M.
Reese, the vice president for Arkansas,
reported that in both those states the
sentiment in favor of free silver was
strong and that majority of the peo-
pie were against the gold standard. A
similar report was made in regard to
the sentiment in Missouri by State
Vice President Blair.
Louis X, Enrich, of Colorado Springs,
reported that nothing but better times
can bring about change in the free
silver sentiment in Colorado. "The
only thing to affect the west" he said,
"is better times, and would now sug-
gest that the league come out boldly
and ask the president of the United
States to proclaim the gold standard
as the money basis of the country"
President Leighton thought it high
ly inexpedient for the league to COM
NIT itself on this point at the present
time.
1t was resolved that committee be
appointed to receive and consider the
report of the monetary commission
when it is made, and to call a meeting
of the executive committee if it is con-
sidered necessary that action be taken
thereon. A committee was appointed
and prepared declaration on interna-
tional bimetallism to the effect that
bimetallism is dead and that gold
should be the standard of the country.
Members of the committee said that
President Mckinley had stated his in
tention of recommending in his next
message to congress the advisability of
separating the issue department of the
treasury from the regular government
expense account In other words it
will be proposed to hold the gold re-
serve as redemption fund for green
backs, to make the gold and green
backs interchangeable. 1t was said
that President Mckinley had spoken
freely on Monday with a prominent
official of the National Sound Money
league on this question.

Effort to Reach Ice-bound WhaIers Ii Th1s

be Sent, Nevertheless.
Washington, Nov. 10.-Secretary
Gage has received the following tele-
gram from Capt. Tuttle, in command
of the revenue cutter Bear, now at Sc
attic, Wash:
Repairs to boiler, pump, bridge
walls, new sails and docking vessel
will cost 81, 500. Before the Bear can
reach St Michaels the bay will be fro
zen over. Vessel cannot winter at st.
Michaels, as the ice would carry it
away. There is no harbor north of
Unalaska that does not remain frozen
until late in June. Bering strait is
closed by ice in November and remains
so until June. The whalers at Point
Barrow are within six miles of the
point and 1S miles of the former ref
uge station. l understand from Capt.
McGregor, of the steam whaler Knr-
LUX, that Liebes, agent at the refuge
station, has about 800 barrels of flour.
With this and the provisions of the
vessels there should be no starvation.
"Those frozen in at Demarkation
Point have the supply station at Her
schel island to fall back upon. While
it will probably be necessary to aban-
don the vessels, do not apprehend the
crews will meet with anything worse
than privations and hardships. The
Bear can be ready to start in two
weeks. There is plenty of coal at Un-
alaska. l can see no way of rendering
assistance until the ice opens in July.
No vessels can do anything in the Arc
tic ocean until July"
Notwithstanding the hopelessness of
the task as indicated by Capt. Tuttle,
Capt. Shoemaker, chief of the revenue
cutter service, has given instructions
for the immediate repair of the Bear
with view to being ready for sea at
the earliest moment. Point Barrow,
near which the icebound whalers are
| supposed to be. is about 5000 miles
north of Seattle and |, 200 miles north
| of Unalaska.
The cabinet at it's meeting Tuesday
gave consideration to the ice-bound
Bering sea whaling fleet. Two plans
have been decided upon, one to send
the Bear from Seattle, which cannot
be got ready for two weeks, and an
other to send the Thrasher, whaling
vessel now at San Francisco This
latter determination was reached after
the receipt of telegram by Secre-
tary Long from the commandant OF
the Mare Island navy yard. The
Thrasher can be provisioned at once
and sent Immediately on her mission

TRACING A CRIME.
The Giving OF Evidence Begins In the Trial
of Martin Thorn.

New York, Nov. 10.-The trial of
Martin Thorn for the alleged murder
of William Guldensuppe began in earn
est yesterday when District Attorney
Young began his address. Thorn sat
with unmoved countenance as the
prosecuting attorney outlined his case
When he had concluded the taking of
testimony began. Twenty witnesses
were summoned for examination and
the district attorney took them one by
one, just as the finding of the different
portions of the body opened up to the
public the fact that a terrible crime
had been committed. The four wit
nesses were the boys who while swim
ming in the East river had found the
upper portion of the severed trunk,
and then followed the policemen who
were called to the scene of the finding.
They in turn were followed by wit
nesses who testified to the bringing of
that part of the body to the morgue.
The discovery of the lower part of
the trunk, from which the legs were
severed half way between the thighs
and knees, was then taken up and
every person who handled it until it
was deposited with the morgue keeper
was examined and each one in turn
identified the paper, oil cloth and
cheese cloth in which the part was
wrapped. The rest of the afternoon
was taken up by the description of
those who found and inspected the
bundle found floating in the Brooklyn
navy yard.
The Herald says: Emanuel Friend,
counsel for Mrs. Augusta Mack, was
at the Harlem opera house last night.
His extreme nervousness caused some
comment and he remarked that he had
just come from long interview with
his client, Mrs. Mack. He said: Mrs.
Mack has confessed and will go on the
stand against Thorn"

A stubborn hattie.

The first important movement after
the battle of Bull Run was the cam
paign which marked the confederate
line in the west and gave the Mississip-
pi river above Vicksburg to the control
of the federal government. Gen. Grant,
who had already begun to show great
military ability, moved against Fort
Henry on the Tennessee river in CO.
operation with the gun boat feet under
Commodore Foote. Grant and Foote
captured Fort Henry January 6, 1862.
On the Cumberland river, only about
12 miles from Fort Henry. was the con-
federate fort, Donelson. After stub
born battle, in which the union loss
was $500 men, this fort was also sur
rendered and with 1t $4,000 confederate
troops, This broke the center Of the
confederate line of defense in the west
and forced them to fall back from
Nashville and other points. - Boston

THE OHIO CONTEST.
Democrats Have Apparently ADan-

Columbus, o., Nov. S.-There have
been no developments in the Legislative
situation, the democrats having ap-
parently abandoned all further efforts
to contest the election of republican
representatives in close counties. The
republican majority of five on joint bal
lot in the general assembly will prob
ably not be changed unless the fusionist
members in Cincinnati vote with the
republicans.
Cincinnati, Nov. s.-John r. Mclean

Mr.. Mclean has been considered the
democratic candidate for senator and
his departure is regarded MS an ndica-
tion that he comedies the legislature

numerous notices of contest. There is
nothing known as to the probable poll

the Legislature, but it is believed they
will join the anti-Hanna republicans
