dates. 1t is a fact that in years past
the railroads assessments have always
been promptly reported. The Auditor
of State, himself a Republican, states
in an official letter that he has been
for three months trying TO have Mr..
Dawson write up the proceedings OF
the Board and report the assessment
but has failed in the attempt. The
scheme of holding up the railroads with
the threat that unless they. do as they
are requested in the campaign. their
assessment will be increased, Is so much
like the Mark Hanna method of getting
campaign contributions out of the
trusts that it is pretty generally be-
lieved that the assessments are being
deliberately held back for that purpose.
The refusal of Col. Joe Beury to serve
as a candidate on the Republican ticket
for presidential elector was a hard
knock for that party. To lessen the
effect of his withdrawal, which was be-
cause he was not in accord with the
party and could not support the ticket,
they have caused it to be given out that
his withdrawal was because he was in
eligible, being a postmaster at his home
in Fayette county. To be eligible as an
elector he would have to give up the
+postoffice, and rather than do that. he
resigned as the candidate for elector.
As Col. Beury is reported TO be a mill
lionaire, and as the postoffice pays him
less than a hundred dollars a year, this
seems like a pretty thin xcu

ington. His first speech in the State will
be at Huntington at 10 O'Clock Monday
morning. Thence he goes east over the
Chesapeake and Ohio railway, stopping
at St. Adams at II: 80, at Charleston
at noon, at Brownstown at 1890, at
East Bank at 12:45, at Montgomery at
/ o'clock, at Thurmond at 2:30, and at
Hinton at 8 O'Clock. This will be his last
speech in the State.
Mr.. Whites throat, which gave
out in the midst OF his series OF joint
debates with Judge Holt, was only a
few days in getting well again, and he
has been talking just as much as he did
before. The fact that his throat gave
out just when it did and got better so
soon afterwards, has caused much COM
ment.
Jadge Hollis meetings continue to be
the anne marked successes he has had
from the start, and he gets the largest
crowds out of any of the speakers of
campaign. AT nearly every place where
he speaks many Republicans tell him
they are going to vote for him.

AWAITING THE VERDICT.

SHENANDOAH, Pa, October IA
Gen. Goblin is %anxiously waiting the
verdict of the operators in regard TO
the terms of settlement agreed upon
at the Scranton convention. He is
anxious to get away and to send the
troops home, but the outbreaks at
Oneida an Lattimer last week and the
condition of affairs of the coke re-
gion causes him to hesitate and it is
probable that there will be no move
ment of troops until it is known wheth-
er the proposed terms of agreement
are acceptable to the operators.
The camp of the Fourth regiment is
built on a side hill, and during the
heavy ~rainstorm early this morning the
water flowed through the tents in
streams, and the mess tents were blown
down.

HAZLETON, Pa, October 1.-THE
individual coal operators who could be
seen here to-day declined to discuss the
action taken by the anthracite miners
convention at Scranton yesterday.
Neither would they say what. steps the
employers would probably take.
1t is evident from their reticence that
the individual mine owners are wait
ing to see what the large coal carrying
railroads that mine coal will do.
1t is said In .he coal region tonight
that the presidents of these roads will
hold a conference in New York to-
morrow for discussion of the action of
the convention.
There was a story afloat to-day that
the operators will accept the conven-
TONS decision, but nothing has come
to the surface in this region on which
to base the report.
The United Mine Workers officials
say they are now again awaiting on the
operators and that they will continue
to close up the collieries that have been
in operation since the strike began four
weeks ago. There are many reports in
circulation that if the strike continues
much longer, a break in the ranks Of
the idle men will occur.
President Mitchell and his associate
officials, however, reassert their conf
dence that the men, both union and
non-union, will remain away from the
mines until after the strike is declared
off.
There is a fear prevalent in this re-
gion that if some of the men do return
to work trouble would probably arise
through efforts of the strikers to per-
suade the men to remain on strike.
All the collieries that are working
still remain heavily guarded.

President watkins views.

SCRANTON, Pa, Oct. 14.-In re-
Spouse to a question as to his views as
TO the answer of the United Mine Wor-
kers to the operators proposition, T.
H. Watkins, president of the Temple
Iron Company, gave out the follow
ing:
Before giving out the statement Mr..
Watkins submitted 1t to various presi-
dents, among them Superintendent La
throp, of the Lehigh Valley Coal Com
pany at W~ilkesbarre, and it received his
unanimous approval. The fact that
]. P. Morgan & Co. are allied with the
Temple Iron Company and that Mr..
Lathrop and Mr.. Watkins are chairmen
of the operators committees In their
respective territory, gives added i'm
portance to the statement.
We will give our men reasonable
Dime to return to work, trusting that
they will see the mistake of being guild
ed and Influenced by men who, how

The Reading officials do not think the
