today is only thirty mine, less than half
the class which presented itself at the

San Francisco Cal, Oct There Is
at least 81, ,00O, 900 worth Of wool raised
on the Pacific coast that can not be
marketed at any fair rate, the greater
part of it in San Francisco. The situa-
ton is unique, and the explanation Civ
en- Of the phenomenon is surprising. The
fact appears well proven that eastern
owners of mills that have heretofore
been manufacturing woolen goods have
engaged in making cotton goods that
are sold as wooden, the fraud being
made possible by an ninvention known to
the trade as star finish" This is a dye
that holds It's color until the fabric With
which 1T Is colored Is nearly worn out.
Experts can not tell whether goods are
cotton or wooden while they are new.

there was q great future for American
soft coal across the Atlantic.

Washington, Oct. 3;-Favorable news
has reached Washington from the Eu-
,ropean chancellories indicating that
complete agreement as to China is
within sight. The agreement will be on
the basis OF the propositions laid down
by Secretary Hay in his note Of July 3
and the subsequent notes treating of
that subject The accord of Russia with.
the United States is more complete
than was anticipated at first and the
reports show that all the European ma
tions are probably placing themselves
In position to take advantage of the
opening made sbys the United States and
will soon be ready to begin negotiating
for q settlement with the Chinese gov
eminent. The Russians already have
sgiyen notice OF such q purpose and while

3ect, referred to In yesterdays press
dispatches. has not. reached the state
department the officials are satisfied
that this correctly reported that
France, like Russia, 10 ready to nego-
tate at once.
AS for Germany, either the position
Of ta1at government has been misunder-
stood or It has sustained change OF
mind. Possibly the former Is the case,
but, however that may be. 1t is quite
certain from the adyices which have
reached Washington that the German
government, upon careful Inspection
of the plans for settlement projected
BY the United States, fnds therein
nothing Inconsistent with the German
aspirations Therefore it may be ex-
pected that Germany too will be pre-
pared soon TO Join in this common
movement towards a settlement. i

tion. This strike shall not be declared
OF by me. It shalt not be ended until
the convention OF anthracite miners so
decide. Every union and every colliery
will be asked to; send one or more dele
gates to the convention to determine
the question OF your going back to
work. You must vote On that yourself.
Mitchell then briefly reviewed the
struggles Of the miners for the past
forty years and said the miners cannot
expect to have all the evils which have
been heaped upon them during the alst
half century OF unorganized labor
righted at once. Continuing he said:
Thru the efforts Of the United Mine
Workers We can secure justice for all.
We want to stand together and hope
that not one man will desert the ranks
OF the union, and that not one man will
go back to the mines until the victory
is complete. !"
The national president was followed
by Fred Dilcher. Of Ohio; Benjamin.
James, Of. Pennsylvania, both members
of the executive board, and Mother"
Mary Jones. After the meeting Mitch
Eell was driven thru the cheering
crowds to his hotel, where he remained
until today, when hereturned to Halle
ton. Mitchell had no news touching
upon the negotiations for a settlement
/ to give out last night. He said there
was absolutely no change in the situa-
!tion. The coal operators Of the Wyom-
A ing valley who posted the placards
yesterday to notify their empolyes Of a
10 per cent increase in wages, had no
Information from the men as to
|whether the offer would be accepted OF
I not The miners, however, have about
made up their minds that they will not

{. say. is mere trife.not worthy Of con-

q The fact that the operators have
