fered to the Captives.
Pana, Ills, Oct 1.-Two hundred
Pana miners held up special Balti-
more and Ohio train at the line of
Shelby and Christian counties yester-
day afternoon. The train was carrying
go imported negroes for work in the
Pana mines. At the point of guns the
miners compelled the negroes to un-
load, starting to march them to Tower
Hill to ship them back to Washington,
Ind. The miners had handkerchiefs
over their faces when they held up the
train, which was delayed but a few
moments. Walter Putterbaugh, who
brought the negroes from the south,
left the train at Flora, being fearful
of holdup and knowing that he would
suffer rough treatment at the hands
of the miners.
The holdup of the train was per-
fectly executed, and was bold stroke
on the part of the union miners. En-
gineer George Worsham, of Pana, was
in charge of the train, and on being
| tagged brought the train to a stop.
The miners were all armed and mask
ed The engine was uncOupled from the
coaches and run a short distance, the
guns. Masked men then entered the
front doors of the train, while their
associates surrounded the coaches. The
negroes were then marched out the
back doors and walked down the track
to Tower Hill.
When they reached Tower Hill the
negroes were locked in the depot until
10 o'clock. At that hour they were
placed on board an eastbound train
and taken back to Indiana at the ex-
pense of the miners union.
Sheriff Coburn, accompanied by 10C
deputies and a number of negroes
heavily armed, left Pana at O'Clock
last night for Tower Hill to release tht
negroes. Five hundred miners also left
on the Big Four for Tower Hill to joir
the miners in charge of the negroes.
| clash between the deputies and miner:
is expected. 1t was was not until after
the sheriff had left here that word came
that the negroes had been sent out o.
the state.

Tho Coal Market.

During the early part Of September the
anthracite market was in an exceedingly un-
satisfactory condition, owing more largely to
reported concessions in prices than to any
actual concessions which were made. Be
cause of this uncertainty and the lack of
demand for consumption, the movement of
coal was smaller than had been anticipated,
though small increase in buying was noted
at line poiuts and in the eastern market.
Toward the close of the month a slight i'm
provement was felt and prices were fairly

ing. The cool weather will undoubtedly
help the situation, and as the stocks in the
hands Of the dealers are rather low for this
time of the year and the tidewater stocks are
also getting low, it would not be surprising
if they should be somewhat rushed and have
difficulty in getting their orders filed
promptly.
For October no tonnage has been agreed
upon, and with all the interests mining as
they please, it is extremely important that
the situation should be watched very care.
fully, as it is not at all certain that the
market can take the full capacity of the
mines during the next three months without
affecting prices seriously although there are
some complaints of shortage of cars, and this
may restrict the output to a slight extent.

Mr.. Malone, of the nuisance committee,
made statement regarding the abatement

papers. In making his report Mr. Malone
said that the plan adopted for the abatement
of the nuisance was not in full accord with
his opinion as to what should be done still
the project would afford temporary relief At
the same time it was stated that the borough
| officials had taken no steps to even carry out
the temporary relief.
Health Officer COnry stated that the work
will hardly be started before the middle of
next month, because Council has asked for
bids, and after they are received contracts
are to be drawn up and other preliminaries

Miss Guiiford a Prisoner.

Bridgeport, Conn, Oct. 1.-Eudora
Guilford, the daughter OF Dr. Nancy
Guilford, wanted for alleged COM
pIicity in the Gill murder case, arrived
in this city yesterday from Stamford.
The prisoner was at once taken to po-
lice headquarters where she was
closeted for over an hour with Super
intendent Birmingham and Detective
Arnold. Later she was assigned to a
cell. During the morning Rose Dray-
ton, the colored servant Of Mrs. Gull
ford, was taken from the Jail to po-
lice headquarters and again examined.
1t is thought that the story told by
Miss Guilford conflicts with that pre-
viously told by Mrs. Drayton.
