& Co., are getting So cents has further
complicated the strike situation. This
rate has been paid since July is. There
are ninety-nine men at work in this
mine and 200 mine wagons are mined
every day. This is dumped into the
tenders of the locomotives on the Penn
sylvania railroad. An effort will be
made by the strikers to get the miners
out. The latest movement of the strikers
indicates that the miners leaders have
abandoned all hope OF drawing the coke
region into the strike and have adopted
a plan of using the cokers to assist the
strikers in q more profitable way. Com
mittees have been in the coke region
all week collecting money and pro-
visions. The headquarters Of the dis

ers' in this city are still besieged with
piteous appeals for aid from the starv-

miners.
More than $1,000 worth Of provisions
have been distributed during the hast
two days and the requests for help are
away in excess of the means to respond.
Around the Bunola mine and along the
Wheeling division Of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad the suffering seems to be
worst In many homes there seems to
be nothing but dry bread to eat. and
in some cases not even this. Arrange

meeting in McKeesport Saturday even

the Turtle Creek and Monongahela val

Cairo. Aug. L. - Omcial dispatches
from Assouan. on the Nile near the
first cataract. give details Of the cap
ture OF Abu Hamed on Aug. Z by the
Anglo-Egyptian troops under Colonel
Hunter after an eighteen hours march
from Merawi. Colonel Hunter kept all
his preparations for the attack q strict
secret. in order to prevent the spies Of
the khalifa in the Soudan from getting
wind Of his plans. After carrying the
high ground overlooking the town the
Agio-Egyptian troops advanced to the
attack upon the village. A stubborn
house-to-house Tight ensued, and Col
onel Hunter was obliged to bring up the
artillery before 1t was possible to carry
the position. The total Egyptian loss
was twenty-one killed and sixty-one
wounded. Of whom the Tenth Soudanese
battalion lost fourteen killed. among

four wounded. Major H. NJ. Sidney fell
mortally wounded while leading his
men to the attack, and died in five
minutes. Lieutenant Fftzclarence was
shot almost at the same moment
through the heart. Three Egyptian on
GERS received severe gunshot wounds.
Enemy Was Almost Annihilssed.
Colonel Hunter in his dispatches high
ly praises the steadiness and dash Of
the troops throughout the engagement.
The village Is q network of crowded
houses and twisting narrow alleys, 80
that most OF the fighting was done at
the point Of the bayonet. The derv-
ishes repeatedly charged through the
narrow streets. Finally their cavalry,
having lost over half their number, fled
precipitately. followed by about 100 in
fantry. These were all that escaped
The dervish commander Mohammed
zein was captured. Another well-known
Emir stubbornly defended himself with
his followers in q strongly fortified
house. and was only killed at last when
the house was destroyed by the artil-
lery. A large number Of prisoners. arms,
standards. eamels and horses, with 9TH
er property. were taken. The Nile at

text Of the famous Injunction granted
by Judge Jackson does not warrant the
remarks that certain people have been
making about 1t. The injunction Was
granted to the, Monongah. Ceal and
Coke company. The scope q the order
has been very much misunderstood, ow-
ing to the omission from the various
summaries telegraphed to the newspa-
pers OF the important qualifying expres-
sions 'unlawfully'' and upon the prop
erty Of the company" For instance.
in the second paragraph it says: RE-
straining and inhibiting the defendants
and all others associated or connected
with them from in any wise interfering
with the management, operation or con-
Quoting Of said mines by their owners
or those operating them. either by mem
aces. threats or any character Of in
timidation," etc.
In the fourth paragraph the defend
ants are further restrained from as
sembling in the paths approaches and
Boads upon said property leading to and
from their homes and residences to the
Monongah Coal and Coke company are
compelled to travel to get to them" etc.
Further along the order says: The pur-
pose and object Of this restraining order
is to prevent all unlawful combinations
and conspiracies and to restrain all :he
defendants engaged in the promotion
Of such unlawful combinations and con-
spiracies from entering upon the prop
erty Of the Monongah Coal and Coke
company described in this order" etc.
