indianapolis. Sept 14-Telegrams from the
anthracite coal fields of Pennsylvania were re-
ceived in profusion at the headquarters of the
United Mine Workers to-da". and all brought
news OF the shutting down Of many important
mines by reason of the strike. President
Mitchell said tonight that all his information
confirmed the belief that there would be no
coal mined in the anthracite region after Mon
dav until the reasonable demands Of the miners
We're complied with. He said that the advices
received to-day were from members of the Ex-
ecutive Board who are in the anthracite
field and he had found them largely confirmed
bv the reports of closing mines in the afternoon
papers.
Since the strike order was issued. the mine
officers have received much encouragement from
the btuminous districts. both of the East ana
West and IL Is said at headquarters that any
attempt TO supplement the anthracite prouucC
with soft coal will be the signal Tor CLOSING
down hituminous mines which contribute 10
that end The kilograms from the bitumtnous
regions brought promises Of financial AID, as
we'll as the promise TO assist the anthracite mine
workers by preventing soft coal from being sent
into that field, and President Mitchell and sec
rotary Wilson believe that the situation in Penn
sylvania Will reach such state that the
mine owners VIII consent to arbitrate the an
ferences. 1t is intimated that the strike could
be extended to the bituminous regions at any
moment. but that the adoption of the scale ana
the relations existing between the miners
and mine operators would place bar TO a
strike unless circumstances should JUSTIFY
reputation OF the agreement entered into IN this
city in January last.
President Mitchell will start from here to-
morrow evening for the scene Of the strike. ana
will remain there until the issue is finally set

No play before the public today

as Uncle Tom Cabin, nor can any
other attraction of half the age of
this great play draw such houses as
those that greet it on it's every ap-
pearance. Uncle Toms Cabin we'll

and interesting plays before the pub
lie today. The j. w. Shipman Uncle
Toms Cabin Co., which is billed to
appear here in tent on the Granite
City Park Monday next, according to
reports gives first class production.
They certainly have sufficient people
to give good production as they adj

horses, ponies and donkeys. There
are two bands, pack Of genuine
Cuban bloodh0unds, a troupe of color
ed jubilee singers and cake walkers
and strong acting company of 25
people. The manager does not an
nouncc double company and does
not use two Marks Or two Topsys for
the reason that the original version
does not call for them. The drama is
presented by the Shipman Co. as Or
iginally written, with specialties be-
tween the acts.
