Illinois Operators and Miners in Open
Rupture.
CHICAGO, July 27.-There was an
open rupture during the day between
the Coal Operators association of Illi-
nois and the miners state organization
promising to lead to serious trouble. It
arose at a meeting Of committees of the
two organizations at the Great North
ern hotel for the purpose of agreeing
upon the seventh member Of the board
of arbitration which, in accordance
with the terms OF lie interst;.,c agree
ment tn.eleu mo lr lac 4-lO.sLurg coA-
vention, was to fix upon the machine
differential rates for this state. After
an all-day session it was found impossi-
BILE to agree on the seventh man and all
negotiations in this direction were de-
clared off. Unless an agreement is
reached before expiration of the present
scale one of tho greatest mining con-
ficts in the history of the state will be

Allege a Ring Is Gobbiing All

WILL PROTEST TO WASHINGTON
Machinery of the Federal Government,
+ They Assert, IL Being Used for
/ s%: Illegal Purposes.

SEATTLE, WASH, July 27.-Advices
received on the steamer Elihu Thomp-
son from St. Michaels indicate that the
miners of Cameron and Anvil City are
wrought up to high pitch on account
of the action of United States Commits
sioner Shepherd, backed by the United
States soldiers. While tho relations
between the miners and government
officials are at high tension, there
has been no desire shown to resort
to- force. A miners meeting of
nearly 1000 men was dispersed on the
night Of the 10th by squad Of soldiers
on the ground that they were not prop
erty owners. The meeting had been
called regularly after five days notice
to:tprotest against the policy that has
been followed in locating claims. These
miners declared that q clique or ring
had been formed to
Gobble Up All the Good Properties
in the country. It is charged by min
ers who came in on the Thompson that
she machinery Of the federal government
on the Yukon had been turned to these
illegal practices. They say that some
of the Laplanders who were sent up
there under tive years contract by the
government have since been natural
lied and claims have been staked in
their names. Even the reindeer which
these Laplanders were hired to take
care of have been used for hauling
stakes into the country to mark the
claim boundaries of the members of the
ring. The miners were signing a pro-
test which is to be forwarded to Wash
ington city. The protest alleges that
tho officials at St. Michaels are con-
Quoting the affairs of the government to
their own selfish ends.

MADRID. July 27.-The discussion Of
the army bill in the senate led to excit-
ing scenes. General Weyler, arguing
against any reduction Of the strength of
the army, warned the government that
the present situation made a revolution
highly probable, since it had never
been so easy for the army and people to
make common cause. He himself was
not apprehending q rising, but it must
be confessed that revolutions sometimes
cleared the political atmosphere and
helped the work of regeneration.
Senor Dato, minister of tho interior,
replying, severely censured General
Weyler, declaring that q general who,
with 300, 900 men, had failed to suppress
the Cuban rebellion had no right to
make such threats and that any attempt
at revolution, no matter by whom,
would be proceeded against with the
utmost rigor Of the law. The army bill
