BONA-FIDE CIRCULATION,

A reference to the statement be-
low Will show that the circulation
sworn to is q bona fide one.
1t is easily possible for a news
paper with an elastic conscience to
swell Its legitimate circulation enor-
mously, in order to deceive adver-
tisers, by sending out thousands of
papers to newsstands which are re-
turnable, and which are in fact re-
turned. but nevertheless are in
cluded in what purports to be an
honest statement of circulation.
Intelligent advertisers, however,
judge by results, and bogus circula-
tions don't give them.
The family circulation of The Star
is many thousands in excess Of any
other Washington paper.

Ofthe Kanawha Region-MectinS of
Operators and Miners.


Operators and Miners.
Special Dispatch to the IntellIgencer.
CHARLESTON. W. Va, March 90
The scale committee Of the Kanawha
coal operators and miners met here yes
terday and arranged scale OF prices
for mining coal for the ensuing six
months. The new scale does not differ
materially from the old one. except that
1t provides for pay day on the Saturday
after the 18th OF the month instead Of
on the Saturday after the Goth, as at
present. Under the agreement the
miners are to be paid on q sliding scale,
the minimum price TO be ~ cents a
bushel for hard coal and IS cents O ton
for soft coal. with an addition Of 25 per
cent on advances in the market, the
market price being fixed ut II: cents q
bushel for hard coal. This Is practical
~ the arrangement, that has been in et-
feet since last October, when the scale
was first agreed upon.
The miners committee asked for an
increase. which, because of the condi-
ton OF the market, they did not receive;
but as concession they received re-
duction OF fifty cents monthly on house
rents.
The regular monthly meeting OF the
Chesapeake 6 Ohio Fuel Company was
also held here yesterday.

RESTFUL SUNDAY

For tho President = He Starts for
Washington To-day.
BROWNSVILLE. Ca. March 26.-
President Mckinley spent quiet and
restful Sunday, attending to no business
save few arrangements for the return
trip to Washington Tomorrow and lis
teHsng to what Postmaster General
Emory Smith had to say of his obserya-
lions OF conditions In Cuba. The
weather was very warm, the thermome-
ter registering IS degrees, but u breeze
was blowing. fs
The President and Miss Hanna were
driven to the Methodist church for the
noon service. Mr.. Mckinley wore q
light weight black coat and soft straw
hat. The church was filed, and the
President on coming out smilingly re-
turned the salution of many OF the con-
gregauon. In the early afternoon, he,
with other members OF the household,
went driving and later received Post
master General Smith, who reached
here on special car from Tampa and
will journey north with the President
Tomorrow. He was driven direct from
the station to Senator Hanna's home,
stopping long enough to say to an Asso-
clated Press reported that his views on
Cuban affairs had been fully stated In
an interview sent by the Associated
Press just before he left Havana.
The presidential party will leave here
late tomorrow afternoon and reach
Washington after the close OF Office
hours Tuesday. Vice President Hobart
has decided to go north with the Presi-
dent. He has not been feeling as well
the last three Of four days as during the
early part OF his visit and believes n
cooler and more bracing climate will
prove beneficial. His attack OF grip last
winter was very severe and 1t will take
time and the best OF care to rid his sys-
tenn OF its effects. He caught n fresh
cold Wednesday night and this, with
some stomach trouble, made 1t neccs-
sary for him to keep quiet and observe
the doctors directions. He has been
able to move about the house. however.
and this afternoon was feeling slightly
better. e.
