Burial of \. II. Chapin.

The Arizona Republican of Sunday last contained the following;
 The funeral of Norman H. Chapin will be held this afternoon at 2:3O o'clock His death, which occurred at the residence of George F. kemper on the Black canon road. a couple of days ago. was rather peculiar, in that he was summoned to Phoenix but a few days previous to minister to the wants of his business partner and brother r-in.law, Jerry Neville, who was then on his death bed at the Sisters hospital. Hardly had MT. Neville closed his eyes for the last time when MT. Chapin was stricken with pneu- monia, and died after short illness. He was brother of Mrs. Kemper and another sister and brother reside in the east Mir. Chapin returned from a visit to them about then days ago He leaves a wife and five children, Mrs. Chapin being sister of Mrs Neville. Messrs. Neville and Chapin were mining partners, their proper ties being in the vicinity of Harshaw. MT. Chapin was an old pioneer of the territory, living in this valley almost a quarter of century ago, and was at one time a resident of Tempe. He was about 42 years of age and a mem- Der of the Masonic lodge of Nogales. The funeral will be under the auspices of the local society of that order.

M'kINLEY AND PENSIONS.
One Absurd Campaign ROOrback Set
tied In short Order.

The season of campaign roorbacks is
at hand, and the most absurd one to
date is an attempt to make it appear
that President Mckinley is opposed to
the liberal administration of the pen
sion laws. This is about the last ale
cation which it might be supposed
would be brought against William Me-
Kinley. In a recent letter to Mr. j. w.
Burst of Sycamore, Ills, Messrs. b. X.
Brown of GAINESVILLE. o., chairman of
the national pension committee, and
John Palmer. past commander in chief
of the Grand Army of the Republic,
give the quietus to this particular roor-
back. Their letter is as follows:
"In an interview Hon. ID. |. Murphy,
former commissioner of PENSIONS
states that President Mckinley on the
morning of Sept. 4. 1899, said to the
national committee on pensions, G. A.
r., There is no use denying the fact.
gentlemen. that the money power of
the country is against further eXpan-
sion of the pension roll The under
signed members only of the pension
committee called on the president 10y
appointment that morning, and in the
interest of justice we desire to say that
this statement is not true. The presi-
dent did not on that occasion nor at
any other time make use of any such
words, nor did he make any such sug
gestion then or at any other time, and
we were present at all the conferences
between the president and the national
committee on pensions from July, 1899,
until the passage of the bill amending
the act of June 81. 1890. in May, 1900.
At each conference he unreservedly
approved the amendments proposed by
the committee and unanimously adopt
ed by the Philadelphia encampment
More than this, the president freely
gave to the committee and the soldiers
and sailors and their dependent ones
whom we represented his personal aid
in securing the passage of the bill.
Having satisfied himself of the abso-
lutte justice of the measure, he did not
hesitate to declare In favor of the
amendment of the act of 1890 and the
liberal administration of all the pen
sion laws. The president is the ear
nest and practical friend of the soldiers
and sailors f.this country From the
very beginning of his public career he
has given expression to sincere re-
gard for his comrades of the war. and
on all proper occasions he has not fail
ed to declare himself earnestly in favor
of a liberal administration of the pen
sion laws. In his official capacity as
member of congress and as the chief
executive of the nation he has evinced
the utmost concern for the liberaliZed
pension legislation and administration.
1t is a cruel and wicked wrong to put
into the mouth of the president the
words ascribed to him in this inter-
view. He does not entertain such SEN
timents."

MINERS BACK AT WORK.
General Resumption of Activity In
Anthracite Coal Region.

Monday witnessed an almost general
resumption of work in the anthracite coal
region. where for six weeks the mine
workers therein employed have been on
strike for an advance III wages, reduc-
ton in the price of powder and in several
districts the abolition of the sliding scale
of wages. In few instances collieries
operated by individuals and by corf1pa-
MES have failed to resume, but in the
main il can be safely said thai hard coal
is once more being mined.
The Philadelphia and Reading Coal
and Iron company, which controls over
20 per cent of the output of the anthra-
cite region and which is the largest oper-
ating company III the hard coal field. re
ceived word from General Superintend-
ent Luther at Pottsville that 81 of the 30
collieries operated by that company were
working. The two collieries not in opera
ton are the West Shenandoah and the
Henry Clay. The former is in the Schuyl-
kill region and, according to the Reading
officials, did not resume because Of the
construction of a new breaker. The Hen
ry Clay, it was stated, is idle because the
abandonment of that mine is contem-
plated.
With the resumption of the Reading
colieries it is admitted 10y the company
that further opposition to the demands Of
the mine workers is useless. and il is the
belief of the officials thai within a few
Gays those operators who have not yet
rcccded to the demands of the Scranton
mine workers convention will have done

The Pennsylvania Railroad company,
which operates nine colicries. also re
ceivcd favorable reports. But one Of its
mines failed to resume. the William Penn,
in the Schuylkill region.
The Oneida and Derringer collieries of
Coke Bros. & Co began operations on
Tuesday, and the Cranberry mine, oper-
ated by A. Pardee Il Co., which was idle
Monday on account of the refusal of the
men To return to work until the Suspend
ed "lokr" engineers are reinstated. also
resumed. but not with full force. The
difficulty arising over the demand for the
engineers reinstatement has not yet been
fully settled, and until il is the union
men say they will refuse to work.
The men employed al the colieries of
the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Coal com
pany met on Tuesday and adopted reso-
luton requesting the company to abolish
the sliding scale and guarantee to pay
the 10 per cent increase until April /.
The company Immediately agreed to the
proposition and posted notices. Work will
be resumed as soon as the mines can be
put in shape.
