PANA MINERS RIOTING
ILLINOIS GOVERNOR SENDS ARTIL-
LERY TO THE SCENE.
six Hundred strikers Carry Off Presi-
dent and superintendent of the
SprinGside Mines.

PANA, ILL.,, Sept 1.--Six hundred striking
miners this afternoon seized David j. Over
holt and Levi s. Overholt, president and
superintendent, respectively, of the Spring
side mines. The two officials were taken out
of their buggy by the mob and carried in
the direction of the mines. Rev. Dr. Millard,
a minister, Of Pana, made a plea to the
miners to release the Overholts and was
knocked on the head with a revolver for
his pains. The two officials were dragged
from their buggy in front Of the Baltimore
& Ohio Southwestern Depot. The seizure
was made for the purpose of demanding the
surrender of negro miners who had been
working in union mems places. The miners
were soon overtaken by the state officials
of the Mine Workers Union. Levi and Louis
Overholt gave the officers an order to send
for a committee of the negro miners.
Sheriff Coburn refused and replied, demand
ing the release of the Overhoits. John
Mitchell, national vice president of the
union, sent back note saying the Over
holts were not in his keeping.
John Mitchell, national president of the
United Mine Workers, received a telephone
message from Springfield to-day informing
him that injunction proceedings forbidding
the operation of the Springside mine until
a fire boss is secured, and until the air pas
sage connection with the Pennwell shaft is
repaired had been begun in Taylorville.
All the officers and directors of the Spring
side Company have been served with a no.

miners have arrived here and smaller de-
tachments from other points are coming in
by every train. The union officials express
doubt whether they will be able to prevent
a demonstration against the mine. The
leaders declare firearms will not be used
and that all the union miners are armed,
and a demonstration could hardly fail to
result in bloodshed.
The Messrs. Overholt were released at
o'clock this evening. The strikers are said
to have voted several times to hang the
Overholts, but were prevented by their lead
ers from committing violence. conference

Vice President Mitchell, of the miners

night. Most of the miners from other towns

BOSTON Aug. 31.-The correspondence
between Governor wolcott and Col. Charles
F. Woodward, formerly of the Sixth Massa-

regiment with a number of other officers
while in Porto Rico, was given out to-
night. The correspondence contains let
ter addressed to the adjutant general dated
Ponce Aug. 5. in which General Miles says:
when the Sixth Massachusetts, Infan-
try was ordered to be ready to disembark
near the entrance of Santiago harbor, Col
Woodward feigned sickness. At Guanica,
when his regiment was ordered ashore he
again feigned sickness and went on the hos
pital ship, was examined by Colonel Green
leaf, surgeon, who pronounced him we'll
and ordered him off the ship During this
time seven companies of his regiment were
engaged in sharp encounter under COM

board and rendered his resignation; its ac-

Colonel Woodwards reply is very volum-
inous. He says General Miles was misin-
formed by his subordinates. The colonel
claims that for long time he had suffered
from a painful stomach trouble and that
he was attacked by the trouble on July a
just before the regiment arrived at Guam

are false. but some Of them he cannot so
prove. Governor Wolcott gives the corre-

ADJUSTMENTS.

"A Day and Night" Hoyts new farce
produced at the Garrick Theater in New
York this week. is said to be one of his
best later day farces. The New York Herald
says if Hoyt had never written "Trip to

his hright comedies. the piece would be
colssidcfed as a brilliant bit of fun" I'm
Torsurai ely" says the Herald, ''he set too
fast pace at the start of his career and
as consequence he is now expected to
continually produce work excelling each
previous effort, whereas his later musical
farces are apt to go at a slower tempo than
the lively measure struck at The beginning.
The Hoyt trade mark is stamped all over
the new farce. which consists in hosts of
pretty women. costumes that are elegant
though brief. handsome scenery. plenty of
color. calcium lights without end. up-to-date

singers who are more familiar with "a Hot
Time in the Old Town than with the dox-

time at the expense of the supposed
*goody" man. but in the end 1t transpires
