Dreyfus sttu Unsatisfied.

Paris, Sept 29-The Presse publishes
an alleged letter from Alfred Drey fus
to NJ Trardieux, the former minister
of justice, in which the writer says:
The moral effects of the iniquity
still exist and the mental torture is as
great as ever. Since justice has not
been done to me, the aim l pursue re-
mains the same until attained, viz: the
legal revision of my trial.
The Presse cites this letter as prov
ing that the Dreyfusards are still ag-
itating and persist in their intention
to keep alive the hatred and discord of
recent years.

ste.ks settlement Yot Remote.

Philadelphia, Oct. 2.-Late develop
ments show that the efforts to bring
about hurried settlement of the big
coal miners strike are still in a chaotic
condition. While there is every sur
face evidence of the honest intentions
of the mine owners and operators to
grant the more important demands of
the mine workers. the difficulties in
detail in reaching the basis of a settle
ment grow more confusing. The gen
eral opinion is that the settlement of
the strike is yet remote.

AMERICAN PLAN ACCEPTED.
Tuan First to be Tried by Chinese
Imperial Court.
OTHER PRINCES DEGRADED.

Washington, Oct. 2.-Important news
came from China which. in itself tends
to advance materially the efforts for a
final settlement. China has accepted
the suggestions OF the United States
contained in the answer to the German
proposition and has begun voluntarily
the punishment of the reactionary
Chinese leaders who were responsible
for the Pekin outrages.
The news came to the department of
state in message from Consul General
Goodnow, at Shanghai. which stated
that Sheng had handed him a decree
of the emperor and empress. blaming
the ministers for encouraging the
Boxers. The edict orders the degrade
ton of four princes and deprives Prince
Tuan of his salary and official servants.
He is to be brought for trial before the
imperial clancourt.
1t will be recalled that in the answer
to the German proposal the state de-
partment was careful to state that
while it did not believe in demanding
the surrender of the Chinese ring lead
ers as condition precedent to nego-
tiations, it was resolved firmly, as
Secretary Hay had in his note of July
3. that in the end the guilty partie
should be held to the uttermost ac
counta bility. The Chinese government
has taken this intimation to heart, and,
perhaps fastened in its action by the
recent manifestation of dissatisfaction
by the United States government at
the reported promotion of Prince
Tuan, already has begun the punish
ment of him and the other Chinese
leaders who are held guilty.
The decree recited by Sheng is felt
to be of the utmost Importance. as in
dicating complete change of heart on
the part of the reigning dynasty. 1t
is believed here that if the action is
genuine it will be hard for any of the
powers to find reasonable pretext for
longer refusing to heed the appeals OF
the Chinese government for the open
ing of negotiations looking to settle
| ment.
The imperial elan court is the su-
preme judicial tribunal of China and
is the only one having jurisdiction
over the imperial family. 1t is pre-
sided over by Prince Ii, with the well
known Prince Ching as first vice presi-
| dent.

Pony Meat For Sweden.

Topeka, Sept. 29.-During Secretary
Wilson's address before the Good
Roads congress he referred to new
industries which had originated from
the work of the department of agri-
culture, among which he mentioned
one located at Portland, Oregon,
where, he said, great slaughter houses
and canning factories have been erect
ed and these little ponies are taken
there, slaughtered anu canned. There
is big demand in Sweden for dried
reindeer meat. There is not Swede
in the land that can tell the difference
between nice piece of the American
pony when he is properly dried and
prepared, and a piece of dried reindeer
meat.

of the Mint Roberts increased the
price to be paid by the government for
silver purchased from 50 to 81 cents a
standard ounce. The government at
present purchases only such silver as
is contained in gold deposit from the
Klondike and other gold producing
sections. Under the existing statute,
all silver in gold deposits is paid for at
the market price. The price has adj
vanced steadily since 1896.

OFFER TEN PER CENT ADVANCE.
President Mitchell Says THEY Will Wish
They Had.


Hazelton, Pa, Oct. 1.-The posting
by the Philadelphia & Reading Coal
and Iron company. of notice grant
ing an increase of 10 per cent to all the
employees of its thirty-nine collieries
the Schuy1lziH valley did not cause any
apparent connection al the headquar-
tiers of the United Mine Workers. Pres
ident Mitchell did not know OF the
action of the Reading company until
informed by reporter Of the Associa-
ted Press. He did not express the
least surprise. He refused to discuss
the advance, but it is understood that
he knew the 10 per cent increase would
be made and was anxious to see in
what manner the information would
be conveyed to the men.
The action of the Reading company
in directly notifying its men through
posters, indicates that the operators
will not recede from their position of
refusal to recognize the union.
What President Mitche1l's first move
will be in view of this new phase of
the situation is not known. The
operators are evidently not taking me
into consideration" he said, but they
will wish they had.
