countermanded
APPEAL FOR TROOPS.

This afternoon delegation of South
side operators went to Shenandoah. where
they met Sheriff Toole, of Schuylkill
county, and Gen. Goblin, and after a
short conference Gen. Goblin decided to
send a battalion of Infantry to MeAdoo
early tomorrow morning They will reach
that place at about 4 o'clock. The object
in placing troops there is that in case
of trouble in Hazleton which the sheriff
could not quell the soldiers would be
thrown into Hazleton in less than an
hour. The railroad cars will be kept in
readiness for a quick movement.
Sheriff Harvey has sixty deputies in this
city who are in constant readiness to go
to any section. Besides these there are
score of armed men, and the sheriff has
several hundred deputies distributed
throughout the country.
The Butchers association, which is
composed of all meat dealers in Hazleton
and vicinity, has given notice that, begin
ming tomorrow, only a cash business will
be done, because of the strike.

great battle which he fought and won
was upon the pine land grab which was
pushed through the lower house by
Charles e. Staples. Mr.. Staples, although
a Republican, requested Mr.. Schailer to
champion the bill in the senate, which
he did, and came off with a proud VIC
tory as the result of his indomitable ad-
vocacy of the measure. He was again
successful in a very noted contest over
the valued policy bill'' One of the most
distinctive victories won by him during
his term of office was that of the bill
which provided for the Introduction of
elementary normal instruction in the
high schools of the state. This measure
had been defeated IN two previous legis-
iatures. His Identification as the cham
pion of this bill made him a friend of
hosts of the educational leaders of the
state, and ever since he has occupied q
high position in educational affairs.
Senator Schaller's successful fight on
the state insane asylum during the last
term is common history and needs to be
only mentioned as a testimony of his rec
ord as conscientious, able and tireless
representative of the people. His career
is replete with brilliant epochs and one
which had great deal to do with mould
ing the history of Dakota county and the
recent history of the state Of Minnesota.
GOOD SPEAKER.
Senator Schaller is a convincing speak
er and has a very pleasing appearance
before an audience. He will be power
full man on the stump, as he has already
proven himself and is thoroughly fitted
to lead his hosts to victory this fall, not
withstanding the fact that he has the
largest majority in the state to over
come. He did not seek the nominat ton,
and even declined at first to accept it,
but now that he is In the Held he will
make clean, determined and successful
fight for election. He has large fol
lowing among the Republicans as well
as the perfect support of his own party,
and will be able to marshal host this
fall that viii surprise the most sangufhe
expectations. Personally Senator Schal-
Ter is a friend of every body and IA
vorite of those who know him best.
He was married during his term of Of
fee, in 1851. to Miss Kate Meloy, of Hast

PEI TANG AFFA1R

According to various accounts of the
Pei Tang affair the Chinese had antici-
pated that the allies would attack in
force. The British and others who had
left Tien Tsin with the intention OF cut
ting off the retreat of the Pei Tang gar
rison arrived too late. They were only,
halfway to their destination when the
forces were captured.
The Tien Tsin correspondent of the
Standard explains that the Russians re-
fused to provide trains for this force
but gave the Germans and Austrians am
pie notice and railway accommodations.
Advices to the Standard from Shang-
hal place the losses of the allies before
Pei Tang as SEQ. principally due to the
explosion of mines, one of which, zoo
yards long, exploded ike an earthquake
killing and wounding large numbers and
literally blowing two mounted officers to
pieces.

on Dewey's Ships.


MONTREAL, Sept 2S-I.icut Hobson
arrived In this city this evening. He
was shown the answer made by Adj
miral Dewey to the interview with the
lieutenant sent out from Vancouver He
said he was deeply grieved that Admiral
Dewey had taken the matter up in the
way reported. He declared that he was
not responsible for the statement made
in the Vancouver interview He had
been approached by a reporter, and in
the course of a conversation had stated
that the Spanish ships had been suuk
because the plugs were drawn by the
Spanish He explained that it was im-
possible to sink a ship by hitting 1t
above the water line Admiral Dewey
had, however. compelled the Spauiards
to sink their ships, and that was just
as effective as sinking them with shells.
Personally he had the highest possible
respect for Admiral Dewey and his great
achievement and he greatly regretted
that anything had been attributed to
him which might tend to destroy the
glory of the admirars deeds.
