INTEREST IN CONVENTION.
what the Miners VIII Decide Upon
Absorbing Attention.

louisville. Pa. Oct. s-Interest In
the great anthracite strike throughout tho
lower coal belt revolves entirely around
the convention OF miners. Mr. Mitchell
says the matter OF going back will be
left entirely to the delegates elected to
the miners convention, but II Is admitted
that this gathering will act absolutely
according 10 his advice, and that of his
subordnates.
Beginning with today, for the first time
since the opening of the strike. not
pound of coal win be mined in the en-
tire lower anthracite belt. except in the
Panther creek valley, where the employees
of ten collieries belonging to the Lee
high Coal and Navigation Company,
have resisted the efforts OF the labor
leaders to bring them out. Missionary
work has begun there In earnest and
John Fahey, president OF this district,
declared there is not the slightest
creek valley going out. OF that | am
certain"
When these miners strike. fully l40,-
H1b men will have laid down their min
ing tools and the tie-up Will be prac-
ticaliy complete. The Panther creek
valley mines turn out 1900 tons a
month, and there may be great trouble
there in a few days.
There are stlli reports that the strike
was started for political purposes. and
President Mitchell discussing these re-
ports said:
II hope that no one will believe such
charges. We viii so on digging coal. no
matter what political party controls the
government. The charge 10 absolutely
untrue.

SUPREME COURT CONVENES
WITH A HEAVY DOCKET,
Twenty-Three More Cases Than
Were ON File mt the Opening
One Year Ago.

WASHINGTON Oct S-The United
States supreme court convened today.
All the members of the court We're pres
emit, exceprMr Justice Gray and Mr.. JUS
tice McKenna, who are absent at Virgin
ia Springs. Chief Justice Fuller announ-
ced that no motions except those for adj
mission to practice before the court
would be entertained today, but that the
docket would be called tomorrow. About
twenty lawyers from the various states
were admitted to practice. The session
lasted only seven minutes.
The number of cases on the calendar At
the opening OF the court today was sSl,
1S4 having been added during the recess.
This is twenty-three more cases than
were upon the calendar at the opening
or the court year ago.
Next Monday Solicitor General Rich
ards, Of the department of justice, will
submit motion relative to the Medley
case, now pending before the court. on
appeal from the decision of Judge Wal
lace, of New York. denying a writ OF ha-
beas corpus The motion probably win
be made to advance the case. The de-
partment of justice, is very anxious 20
procure decision on the main question
involved, viz. the constitutionality of
the law under which II is proposed to ex-
tradite Medley TO Cuba
There is grave danger of dismissal OF
the appeal. owing to the difference OF
opinion which exists as TO the legal status
Of Medley. The application for a writ OF
habeas corpus before Judge Wallace was
made upon the theory that Medley was
marshal. under process to be taken 10
Cuba, while Judge Lacombe. before whom
the original proceedings took place. In
sists that Neeley was not In the custody
of the United States marshal, but was
held on an order from the court In gar
nishee proceedings. II the supreme court
decides that he was In the custody OF the
United States marshal the court will be
In q position to pass upon the constitu-
tionaIity of the law and dispose OF the
matter. IL not. there Is no case before the
court and the matter viii have to be dis
missed.
General Richards win move for the dis
missal OF the suit brought against the
states of North Carolina, South Carolina,
Florida and Louisiana to recover the
amounts of certain bonds issued by those
states and held by the United States. The
bonds were issued during the civil war,
and the controversy over them IL Of long
standing. The amount involved Is over
81 .00000D. The motion to dismiss Will ne
made in accordance with the specific d.
rection OF congress.

IMPORTANT MINE RULING.
Montana Case demanded 10 the
Circuit Court for n New
Trial.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. s.-The United
states circuit court OF appeals today re-
versed the decision OF the circuit court OF
Montana in the case of the United states
VS.. Mccoy ct al
The case Of the st. louis Mining and
Milling Company, OF Montana. VS. the
Montana Mining Company. Limited. was
remanded to the circuit court for a new
trial as 10 the damages alleged and the
recovery sought for the conversion of ore
between the planes indicated on the map
showing the location of the mine. Judge
Ross dissented from the decision.
Judge Morrow. who wrote the majority
decision. said:
"The question under present consider
alton In when secondary or incidental
vein crosses a common side line between
two mining locations at an angle, and
the apex OF the vein is of such width
that II IS for given distance partly
within one claim and partly within the
other, to whom does such portion OF the
vein belong7
This question does not appear to have
been ever directly passed upon by the
courts. A mining claim can have but two
end lines, and having been once estah-
lished they become the end lines for all
veins found within the surface houndar-
les.
THE line In dispute cannot be consld-
cred the end line fer the Drum Lummon
VEIN IL In the construction OF law the
vein Of twenty-five feet IN controversy
must be either upon the one location or
the other, and II the senior locator has
priority OF title II would follow that the
right Of lateral pursuit would remain
with the senior locator. who, In a plane
parallel to the end OF the senior claim
and up 70 the point Of departure OF the
apex, or. In this case the foot wall, in
asmuch as neither statute nor authority
permits a division OF the crossing por-
ton Of the vein. and the weight OF au-
thorlty favors the senior locator, the
entire line must be considered as apexing
under the senior locator until Ii has
wholly passed beyond It's side line"
