Great Mine Strike May Be Settled.
Both Sides Almost Ready to Count Early Re-

PITTSBURG, Pa, July 1.-THE pros
pect for settlement of the miners
strike is brighter tonight than at any
time since the struggle began, and
both sides are almost ready to count
on a resumption of work in the near
future. The cheering announcement is
made tonight that w. P. Dearmitt,
president of the New York & Cleveland
Gas Coal company, whose 1900 men
have been constantly at work, and
without whose assistance the success
of the movement would have been
jeopardized, has agreed to join with the
other operators in a plan for the set
tlement of the strike on a true uni
formtty basis. This result has been
brought about through the efforts of
the members of the joint arbitration
commission and the movement now has
a much better look. The proposition
of the commissioners has also received
the approval of the miners officials.
In agreeing to the terms, the miners
officials promised to use their infiu-
ence to obtain the signatures of the OPP
orators tc.the contract, and they will

Sherman Scored
For the Tone of His Latest
Bering Sea Dispatch.


LONDON, July 15.-The Daily Graph
1c, in an editorial article on the Bering
sea correspondence this morning, says:
Our experience of the incurably bad
manners of American diplomacy rem
ders it unnecessary to regard Secretary
Sherman's explosion seriously. 1t would
be unwise to enrbitter the; negotiation
by answering Secretary Sherman ac-
cording to his indiscretion.p
The Daily Chronicle says: 1--WE
thought it was we who had a good
grievance over the non n-execution of the
Paris award"
The Daily News says editorially:
1.-THE ugly dispatch from Secretary
Sherman which has got into print is
sure to revive for the moment the un-
pleasant memory of 1895, when Eng
land and the United States found them
selves almost on the brink of war. But
it will be only momentary. When the
facts are calmly considered, we should
not be surprised if the publication
should produce an expression of pop
ular feeling in America in direction
quite contrary to that anticipated and
lead to an early solution of the irri-
tating controversy by the abandonment
once for all of a temper so little likely
to produce a happy result 1t is clear
from all that has lately been published
on the question that the dispatch is
out of date, and its publication is either
a ludicrous accident or partisan de-

rate contest for their supremacy which
shall not be abandoned, in Kentucky at least,
so long as there is single man left to carry
the old banner If we are not here for these
purposes, we ought not to be here at all
In the estimation of many of your former
associates the mere fact that you have as
sembled for the sole purpose of declaring
your continued adherence to the old Demo-
cratic faith, uninf1uenced by the hope or eX-
pectation Of official power or patronage will
constitute a ground for serious complaint
against you during the campaign. In the
opinions of such men, success at the polls,
whether rightfully wrongfully secured
and the prospects of official honors and emol-
uments the only proper incentive to po-
Etical action. and they are wholly unable to
appreciate the force of an honest convic-
tion or to understand why a citizen should
attach greater Importance to the mainte-
nance of correct principle than to the pres
ervation of autocratic party organization.
Abuse and vituperation are the only tribute
that class of politicians are capable of pay
ing to your Democracy and your patriotism
The Democratic party has always been
united and strong when it was faithful to its
true principles and courageous enough to
contend for them. and always divided and
weak when it abandoned them or attempted
to compromise with its enemies. During the
civil war its organization was completely
broken up in this state, and yet, when the
came spontaneously together in this city and
reasserted their fidelity to the constitution
their devotion to the principles of free hon
est and just government by the people, and
their determination to use their power for
the protection of all the personal, political
and property rights of the citizen against
unauthorized encroachments of state or fed
eral power; and this prompt and courageous
action made the party invincble in Ken
lucky for thirty years. 1t would be invincible
still if the delusive promise of temporary
success on un-Democratic issues had not
demoralized its organizatiGn and revolution
lied its creed.

SORRY CONTRAST.

What a contrast between the united DEM
ocracy of 1876 under the leadership of Samuel
j. Tilden, with its clear and unequivocal dec
laration for sound money, a tariff for rev.
enue only, honesty and economy in public
expenditures, and thorough reforms in the
methods of public administration, and the
so-called Democracy of 1896. under the lead
erSh1p of three different organizations with
three separate platforms, demanding the free
and unlimited coinage of deprecated silver
the unlimited issue of legal tender paper by
the government, the public ownership of rail-
roads and telegraphs, and the postponement
OF tariff reform until the debasement of the
currency has been accomplished, and not

is less summary and more formal in its char
acter than the first.
The report says that the men at the
first trial did not know until after the
testimony for the prosecution was in
that an interpreter was present, and
the only translation made to them was
at the close Of the sanguinary proceed
ings when they were asked if they had
anything to say, and necessarily they
could have little to say, yet one OF
them protested that he had not under
stood one word Of the proceedings
against him by which his life was ad-
judged forfeited. The report continues:
With these protests the trial ended and the
defendants were Immediately sentenced to
death. 1t is now fourteen months since they
were arrested. during all of which time they
have been held in Cabanas fortress as pris-
oners: In our opinion, these acts of delay
and denial of justice and Of the infiiction of
injustice, vitiate and make void any right
which Spain had in the beginning of this
transaction to proceed criminally against any
of these men. This government should de-
mand that they be set at liberty and that

Conferees Are Hopelessly at Odds.
Agreement on the Tariff Bill an Uncertain Matter

WASHINGTON, July 4.-The con-
ferees on the tariff bill found them
selves today apparently further apart
than they were at the beginning of the
conference. There was no immediate
prospect of agreement, and more than
one member stated that the entangle-
ment was such that the settlement
might be indefinitely prolonged. From
all that can be learned there has been
general recession from the partial
agreements made on the less important
articles, until sugar, wool, and hides,
can be definitely settled. The best re-
ports represent the house conferees,
with Speaker Reed behind them, as
holding out for the house sugar sched-
ule, without any change whatever, and
the senator's quite as determined not
to yield to this extent. The house con-
ferees insist that this schedule must
be definitely fixed before other ques-
tions shall be taken up. One of the
other questions upon which sharp diff
ferences have arisen, is the senate
amendment for a stamp tax ON stock
and bonds. The house opposed the
amendment, but the senators, while not
welded to it, insist upon 1T as neces-
sary for revenue. The house is also
resisting strenuously the 20 per cent
duty placed upon hides, and is at the
same time, persistently holding out for
the restoration of gunnybags, cotton
ties, ETC., to the dutiable list.
A senator who talked with some con-
ferees, said: "They are in a tempo
rary deadlock, and are tied up all along
the line. 1t looks as if the situation
might remain unchanged for a week."
While this appears to be a correct
outline of the situation, today, the pre-
vailing impression is that a settlement
of one or two important schedules
would be speedily followed by a COM
plete adjustment of all other differ
ences. The senate conferees are dis
posed to resent the efforts of Speaker
Reed, to influence the action of the
conferees. The senators are inclined to
construe the speakers participation in
the proceedings as unwarranted and
are apparently more determined than
before his attitude was known. to hold

LOUISVILLE, KY, July 14-Notably
and unique to a marked degree, beyond
any held for more than a score of years
in Kentucky, was the convention which
today and tonight brought to Louis
vile from all parts of the bloody
ground" the sturdiest sons of Demo-
cratic forefathers with the purpose, as
they put it, in view of sustaining true
Democracy and bringing back to such
those who have strayed after a silver
idol. The most prominent of Ken
tucky's statesmen were in, attendance
There was almost a constant flow of
oratory, of which nearly 1000 delegates
did not weary, and every face revealed
the zeal which was felt in the cause
which led to their assembling 1t may
be said, too, that firmly as they were
imbued with the principles which un-
derlle their party of National Democ-
racy, little of bitterness towards free
silver brothers found expression. While
determined to fight without compro-
mise or yielding the advocates of free
silver, it was almost the unanimous
conviction that the true spirit should
those who had parted from them and
once again enable Kentucky and every
state to present a solid united Democ-
racy to oppose the Republican party or
any political foe.
BY o'clock the convention hall had
filled to it's capacity by men who would
impress even strangers with the fact
that they were indeed Of Kentucky's s
best manhood. A noticeable point was
that elderly men predominated The
first overfloWing of enthusiasm was
when Senator William Lindsay entered
the hall. and before the cheering for
him could die out, eX-Secretary John
u. Carlisle, and the Hon. Henry Wat
terson appeared and gave a fresh i'm
petuS to the now thoroughly aroused
enthusiasm, and yet judging by the
volume of applause, it was Col. w. c.
P. Breckenridge that the heartiest
recognition was accorded.
The boxes and stage We're graced by
ladies, who contributed their full share
to the hOnOrS shown to men who have
won renown in public service.
On account of the absence in Europe
of the Hon. George M Davie, the duty
OF calling the convention to order fell
upon Hon. A. J. Carroll, of Louisville.
Who has been one Of the hardest fight
ers in the ranks of the gold Demo-
SlllS, eIllu WIlO III lnG state legislature
preceding the last session, presided
over the house in manner which, in
the way Of expedition of ruling and
fairness, challenged and won the ap-
probation Of opponents. His appearance
upon the platform was the signal for
an outburst Of applause. In his OPEN
ing remarks Mr.. Carroll made it clear
that the issue was forced upon and ac-
cepted by those who were from con-
ScleQtiOuS Drincin1e ODnOSe6 the
free silver delusion." He charged the
Frankfort convention, at which the
Hon. ]. @. Blackburn was so great a
factor, with having run up "the pratt
cal flag" and followed this with the
assertion 1--WE will continue the fight
with all the vigor of our minds and
hearts until the last vestige of hersey
is eradicated." The substance of his
we'll received speech centered upon the
necessity of sound finances.

WASHINGTON, July Ex-senator
Davis, chairman Of the committee on
foreign relations, today reported from
that committee the following joint res
olution:
That the president be empowered to take
such measures as in his judgment may be
necessary to obtain the release from the
Spanish government of Ona Melton, Alfred o.
Laborde and William Gildea, and the restora-
ton Of the schooner Competitor to her owner
and TO secure this he is authorized and re-
quested TO employ such means or exercise
such power as may be necessary.
The report recites all the facts that
have been brought out in the Com
petitor case; her ownership, capture
and citizenship of the three men named
III the resolution, together with the pro-
ceedlngs thus far had by the Spanish
authorities, the trial, sentence, etc. The
report characterizes it as a mockery
Of trial. The affidavits Of the party
are cited to show that they were CO.
creed into Spanish waters, in which
case they were not amenable to Span
ish Jurisdiction. They were not subject
to piracy and intended no act of depre-
dation on the seas, nor were they sub
ject to the Spanish authority on &C
count of alleged rebellion. The report
then says:
Irrespective of any of the foregoing consid-
erations the conduct of Spain, as hereinbe-
fore detailed constitutes such delay and de-
nial of justice and such an actual infiiction of
injustice upon these men as to make 1T the
duty of this government to demand reparation
therefor, irrespective of any act which these
prisoners may have committed up to the date
Of their capture. Among the acts of repara-
ton which ought to be demanded should be
the release of these captives.
Secretary Evarts is quoted to sus-
tain this position. The report declares
that the rights of the men have been
violated and continues:
They have been tried and sentenced to
death by a summary naval court martial in
proceeding which had been annulled by the
appellate courts of Madrid, upon the ground
that such court martial had no Jurisdiction
over them. Ten months have elapsed since
this death sentence was annulled and they
have not again been brought to trial. In the
meantime. they have been subjected to pro-
tracted preliminary examinations preparatory
to their trial by another court martial which
differs from the first only in the fact that 1t
