olga htic Miners Organization May Be
Perfected by May I.

Perfected by May 1.
Hazleton, Pa, Oct. 22.-Within the
last forty-eight hours the leaders of
the anthracite coal strike have per-
fected plans which may cause a strike
In every coal field in the United States
next May. T. d. Ryan of Illinois and
President John Mitchell of the United
Mine Workers, have laid the plans. 1t
is proposed that both hard and soft
coal miners shall band together and
present their demands to the mine
owners at the same time. They are
to stand or fall together, and no I'M
ion miner is to go to work till the de-
mands of all are granted. The Illinois,
Indiana, Ohio, West Virginia, and
Pennsylvania fields are involved. In
round numbers the leaders expect to
have back of them go, 900 men. Aside
from morning raid on the Markle
mine at Oakdale, nothing developed in
the anthracite coal situation for the
day. The powder question still SEEM
ingly bars a settlement. A national
board meeting is to be held soon, how
ever, and the belief is gaining that
the miners leaders will find a way
around that difficulty. President Mitch
ellis only statement to-day was that no
one was more anxious to see the strike
ended than he. Though one or two
members of the national board favor
no compromise, the majority agrees
with Mitchell. 1t is considered certain
here, however, that the strike will last
nearly week longer. The long-ex
pected raid on the Markle mines came
this morning. The colliery at Oak
dale, near Jeddo, was attacked by hun
dreds of men, and several miners were
beaten. The marchers, however, met
with poor success, as the colliery re-
sumed work after the strikers retired.
Prepare to Resume Work.
ShamoKin, Pa, Oct. 20.-Prepara-
tons are being made by the Philadel-
phia and Reading Coal and Irun Com
pany, the Mineral Railroad and Min
ing company and the Union Coal COM
pany for an early resumption Of work
at their respective eollieries. En-
gineers and firemen have been ordered
into the mines to repair the pumps
and engines and the mules are being
brought back to the colliery stables.
Among the strikers some disappoint-
ment is expressed that no word has
come from President Mitchell in ref
erence to a settlement of the strike,
but there appears to be no break in
their ranks. They say they would not
think of returning to work until an
order declaring the strike off has been
issued by Mr.. Mitchell. The state
ment is also made that they are bet
ter prepared than most people i'm
agine to remain out six months longer

WASHINGTON, D. c., February Z.
Thirty leading Republicans from all
parts of the State of West Virginia,
who are supporting Representative
Romeo Freer for the Governorship,
met in the city to-day, at the hotel
Varnum.
They held an enthusiastic meeting
at which they adopted resolutions urg-
ing on the Republican party the adj
visibility of unanimous support of Mr..
Freer's candidacy by all factions of the
Republican party in West Virginia.
Besides Mr.. Freer, no members of
the West Virginia delegation were
present. The meeting was presided
over by General George w. Curtin.
Among the prominent supporters of
MIR. Freer present were Warden
Hawk, ]. Barton, Richard Robertson,
i. B. Archer, ex-Mayor Butts, of
Wheeling, DR.. T. c. White, John w.
Mason, Senator Thos. E. Davis, Will

Smith, Jr., Parkersburg, Senator
Stark Baker, and ]. K. Thompson, and
others.
In spite of the strenuous denial on
q 4, 10 L.
bers, it was learned that the senti-
ment of the meeting was violently an
ti-Elkins and anti-machine.
The gauntlet was thrown down to
Senator Elkins and he was given plain
ly to understand that if he does not
give up the support of White, he
cannot expect the support of the Freer
people for the Senatorship.

LONDON, February S.-4 a. m.-The
British columns are putting themselves
in motion in all parts of the South
African war field. A combined attack
upon the Beers appears to be in pro-
gress. Gen. Butler has gained foot
ing upon the plateau north Of tie
Tugeia after two days hard fighting.
On the far western border Lord Me-
thuen has begun a turning movemen mt
against the Boer right while Gen. Mac
Donald threatens the BOer flank, thus
relieving the pressure on Lord Me-
thuen's front.
Lord Roberts, who according to an
informant in close touch with the wal
Office, is in the middle of the theatre OF
war, has begun the march on Bloom
fontein.
The Beers have taken the initiative
against Gen. Gatacre, attacking two OF
his positions at Sterkstroom.
1t really looks as though the general
forward movements SO long talked OF
were in progress, Gen. Buffers third

serbs attention kilograms Of from
one hundred to two hundred words
from dozen correspondents have been
passed by the censor, who has appar-
emily. re-dated messages written Mon
day or Tuesday to Wednesday at 6 p
m. From these it is clear that Gen
Butler UP to Tuesday evening had
taken one hill, had repulsed a BoeI
counter attack and was holding the
position against an enflading fire from
Spion Kop and Dorm Kloof. His
losses, as mentioned by one cores
pondent are ESQ.
The only kilograms from Boer
sources assert that one OF Gen. Buller'f
attempts to seize the fords failed, bur
they admit that he has lodged forces
on one kopje.
Light on Gen. Buffers operations
ceases here, the war Office not contrib
uting any information.
Three thousand more militia have
been ordered to prepare for embarka-
ton. The obsolete guns at the various
coast defences are being replaced with
modern naval guns. The government
is preparing a plan to be submitted &c
parliament for the conversion of yeo-
many, volunteers and militia into q

Before the Clark Senatorial Investf-
CATION Yesterday-Denied Stories
of CIark's Enemies.
WASHINGTON, February 7.-Wal-
ter M. Bickford was practically the
only witness before the Senate Com
mittee on Elections to-day In the
Clark investigation. He was one of
Senator Clark's special friends in the
last Montana senatorial convention.
Mr. Bickford contradicted much of the
testimony of Sheriff Stiff. Senator
Meyer, Representative Sullivan, DR..
Ector, Mr.. Cowen and others. He,
however, admitted rendering to DR..
Ector $1,000 with which to lift the in
debtedness of Representative Woods,
of Rovelli county, saying that he had
not intended that Mr.. Wood should
know of his doing this, and his only
purpose was to control the debt so the
Rovelli county people could not set
hold of it. He received the money
from Senator Clark's son, and when
it was not accepted for Mr.. Wood by
DIR. Ector. he had returned it to Mr..
Clark. Mr.. Bickford also explained
the purchase of timber land owned
by Representative Mclaughlin prior
to the meeting of the Legislature. He
contended that the property was
worth more than had been paid for it,
and that the timber was necessary in
Mr. Clark's business.
In his deal with Mclaughlin witness
had never talked with him concerning
the senatorial situation, nor tried to
influence him in that connection to
vote for Mr.. Clark. In his cross-ex-
animation Bickford stated that he was
counsel for Mr. Clark. but after say
| ing that he would not tell what his
| fees had been, he said all told Mr..
Clark had paid him $4,000 as counsel.
He also said Mr.. VIM. McDermott had
refunded to him the money expended
| in the campaign, and he thought Mr..
MeDermott was engaged in Mr.. Clark S
interest.
During the day the committee for
mally declined for the present to al
low the defense to go into the cam
paign of 1898.
