One Negro Hanged and Six More Will
Follow

PINE BLUFF, Ark, Aug. PAT. l..
Johnson, a prominent white man, who
was brutally cut last Saturday at a
negro dance at Kendall, died here today.
When the news of the affair became
known the citizens in the vicinity start
ed out to capture the guilty parties and
they have succeeded. Yesterday after
noon the deputy sheriff captured two
Of the negroes connected with the bloody
work near the scene of the crime. The
party then started for Rison to place
them in Jail, but one of the negroes broke
away and escaped. The officers then con-
tinued on their way with the other one,
whose name was Bill Douglass. When
near Anderson, Douglass was taken
from them some time late in the night
and strung up to bridge on the Cotton
Belt railroad, where his body was found
this morning.
A report reached here late this even
ing that six other negroes who are
known to have been connected with the

The Operators Propose to Start Their
Mines and Hire New Men If
Necessary

PITTSBURG, August 24-The final eff
fort to arrange a plan for ending the
strike proved a failure and the big coal
strike goes on. The conference between
the committee of coal miners and ope-
rators, national and district officials,
closed at noon and adjourned sine die.
A number of propositions were made by
the operators, but the miners represen-
tatives rejected all, standing by the
original proposition to settle the strike
by arbitration and start the mines at the
69-cent rate.
Immediately after the close Of the
meeting of the conference J. B. Zerbe
called melting of operators for O'Clock
this afternoon to discuss the situation
and outline a plan for future action.
Some operators are in favor of the plan
decided upon. at the Cleveland confer
ence to make fight and start the mines
with old men if they can be induced to
dig at "a cents, or import men to take
their places. Others. however, say they
will not aid in carrying out this plan
and favor complete surrender.
The outlook after adjournment of the
conference seemed to be encouraging
for the miners. There is no question as
to the anxiety OF the operators to start
the mines. Nearly every coal company
in the Pittsburg district was represent
ed at the Monongahela House during the
conference.
| Quiet prevails at the strikers camps
about the DeArmitt mines. Both sides
are waiting for decision of the court In
| the cases of the five men arrested Sat-
urday morning. The Sheriff does not
want to go on making arrests until sure
the court will sustain him, and the strik-
ers do not want to be arrested II the
court will sustain the Sheriff in making
the arrests So sort of truce has come
about.
This morning, on account of rain, the
| campers remained under shelter and
passed an uneventful day awaiting news
of the conference between the operators
and miners officials in session at Pitts
burg.
The operators conference was in Sc
cret session for several hours, and wher
the doors were opened their press agen'
announced that the mines would certain
ly be started. with the old diggers, II pos
sible, or with imported men II the ole
men refused to work.
A committee was appointed, composed
Of representatives Of every firm in thu

A Dreary Voyage

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 24.-The Brit
ish ship Pendeen, which left Cape Town
enghteen months ago to go to New
Castle, N. s. W., to load coal for this
port, docked with her cargo today. When
2SOO miles out FROM the Cape Of Good
Hope the Pendeen encountered hur-
ricane that dismasted her. The main
mast went first, carrying with it the
foremast. which snapped off two feet
above the deck. The mizzenmast was
bent back over the stern. The disab bled
vessel was ffty-four days getting tc
Mauritius, the nearest port, and the
damage to the ship may be estimated
as it took five months to repair her.

President Mckinley visited the camp
nres during the evening at two of the
local churches and the crowds that
greeted him were tremendous. He spoke
briefly at one, saying:
Ladies and Gentlemen: The saddest

rampment we miss many familiar faces;
pr comrades are diminishing with the
passing years; the circle is narrowing
Ind every annual roll call discloses one

tounted for. They have gone from human
hight; they have passed from associa-
lion with us here any longer; they have
zone to join the great majority of that
army with which they were so long as
sociated, and they sleep tonight within
hose green tents whose curtains never
sutward swing. Grant has gone, Sher-
nan and Sheridan and Thomas and Nc
Pherson and Logan, and long list be-
hide, rich in precious memories; and not
pnly have the great commanders gone
but the rank and file of that splendid
trmy have Joined their old commanders

tny man can weave them. Speak no
bore of their renown, but in the vast
cathedral leave them. God accept them,
christ receive them. 1t is our duty, it is
tur business to perpetuate their mem
iry. It is our duty it is our business to

On The Sand.

The little schooner, Edith, owned

south beach of Alsea Bay entrance.
The schooner was loaded with
lumber for Yaquina Bay, and on
last Friday evening CaptIGideon
and the crew set sail for the voyage.
All went we'll till the vessel reached
the bar where she was met by con-
trary winds, and ina short time the
vessel was driven on the sands.
The schooner is/ not damaged and
the lumber is/probably all taken off
by this time. The crew walked
ashore at low tide.
LATER.-The schooner was got
safely into deep water yesterday,
and is not seriously damaged. The
cargo of lumber was taken off and
sold on the beach to Josiah

alarms. This was all according tc
program, and was done without
friction.
The house, when it attempted to
organize found themselves in trouble
in short order. Davis of Umatilla
county, was elected temporary
speaker, and committee on Gre
dentials was appointed, and they
have "never done anything since. 4"
After being out nearly two days the
committee finally made three separ-
ate reports, none of which were
adopted. Filibustering tactics have
been employed by a faction of the
republicans present, assisted by
some of the populists and democrats,
and the house finds itself powerless
to organize for business.
The whole fight, of course, is on
the senatorial squabble. The fight
is anything to beat Mitchell, and it
looks like they have it accomplish
ed.
How long the squabble will keep
up no man knoweth.
In the lower house of the legis-
lature there are forty-threc republi-
cans and four democrats. Never
the less Somers, a republican repre-
sentative from Linn county, solemn
ly introduced a resolution arraigning
the democratic members for their
revolutionary actions in holding up
the organization of the legislature.
