CALAMITY of American Marines.

San Francisco, Sept. 15.-Colonel
Robert l.. Meade, marine corps, who
commanded the American forces at
Tien Tsin and was invalided home,
adds several Incidents Of heroism to
the story already told Of the storming
of the walled city by the allies.
Captain Davis of my regiment was
standing between DIR. Norton and my
self when he was shot" said Colonel
Meade. He was struck by Jingall
bullet from a 'twO-man gun over the
heart, and died almost instantly. A
Jingall bullet is about three inches In
length, but one and quarter inches In
diameter.
"In the maneuvers about Tien Tsin,
Naval Cadet Charles II. Courtney, lead
ing twelve men, undertook to capture
an arsenal nine miles from the city.
When they had advanced within two
miles on the north side Of the arsenal,
. force of 500 Chinese troops advanced
to meet them, and the little band was
compelled to retreat. Only two OF the
twelve men ESCAPED unwounded. In
retiring, William E. Holyoke, boat
swain's mate, was shot through the
neck and groin, falling to the ground,
and the young naval cadet, who is a
stalwart fellow, took him on his back
and carried him to place Of safety on
the river bank. Then, meeting rein
forcements from Commodore Seymour,
Cadet Courtney and the few men able
to fight returned to the attack on the
fort, capturing 1t at 3 O'Clock in the
morning, after fighting all night"

Frankfort, KY, Sept. 1s-The first
really sensational testimony in the
trial Of James Howard. charged with
having fired the shot that killed VIII
liam Goebel, was given to-day by Bow
man Gaines and James Stubblefield,
a former deputy sheriff. The former
Identified Howard as the man who
ran out from the rear of the state
house grounds and jumped over the
fence Immediately after the shooting.
Gaines was positive in his Identified
ton.
He said Howard then wore a mus.
tache and was followed by man who
was tall and slender. A boy who was
near by at the time will also be in
troduced as witness to corroborate
Gaines.
The most sensational witness, how
ever. and at the same time the most
important witness from the prosecu-
tons standpoint. was James Stubble-
field, who testified that Howard ex-
ultingly told him lie fired the shot that
took GOebels life.

Philadelphia, Sept. 1.-THE great
strike Of the miners in the anthracite
coal fields of Pennsylvania, which rep
resent practically the hard coal out
put Of the world, began to-day. Accord
ing to President Mitchell OF the United
Mine Workers of America, who II per-
sonally directing the strike from his
headquarters at HaZleton, the success
of the first days efforts to tie up the
mines exceeded the expectations Of the
strike leaders.
The hard coal region Is divided into
four great districts, the Lackawanna,
Wyoming, Lehigh and Schuykill re-
gions. In the first two, representing
nearly $4,000 men. the tie-up is prac-
tically complete. Only one mine, en-
ploying few hundred men, Ia being
operated, and this the strikers say
they hope to close soon. In the Lehigh
region the situation is a standoff,
about 5000 of the 10000 employees hav-
ing quit. Principally because the union
has comparatively little strength in the
Schuykill region and the workmen
there have no decided grievance, as in
other districts, the strike was not gen
eral among the upward of $4,000 men
employed. Indications tonight, how
ever, point to the closing tomorrow of
some mines in the last named district
that operated to-day, despite the asser-
ton of officials of the Philadelphia and
Reading Coal Company and other COM
panies operating In the region that they
will continue their collieries in opera
ton. Nearly all the efforts of the strike
leaders are being devoted to organic
ing the men in the weak Schuykill and
Lehigh regions, and tonight their or
ganlzers and orators are redoubling
their efforts.
No violence worth mentioning has
marred the first day of the struggle.
Practically no progress has yet been
made in the effort of some Of the
clergy to bring about IL settlement of
the trouble through arbitration.
Hazelton, Pa, Sept. 17.-President
Mitchell tonight gave out the follow
ing statement:
Information received up to tonight
shows that H., OOO mine workers are on
strike in the anthracite region. OF this
number 1900 are in district No. /, 3d.
600 in district No. 3, and 10000 in dis
trlct No. Z.
Reports received are to tho effect
that large number of those who went
to the mines to-day will join in the sus-
pension tomorrow.
1.-THE number of men now out on
strike exceeds that of amy other indus
trial contest in the history Of our coun-
try"
Mr.. Mitchell decided an important
point to-day in the matter of arbitra-
ton. Last week the miners employed
by G. B. Markle 4 Co. decided not to
strike until the firm had passed upon q
set of their own grievances, which diff
fer somewhat from those of the United
Mine Workers. The firm has an agree

Washington, Sept. 1S.-The annual
report Of the geological survey on the
output of petroleum for the year 1899
shows q total production of 57,O7OS5O
barrels, valued at 1914. eO4, 300.
While the production has not in
creased much over 1893, the price per
barrel has increased from 10 40 cents
to $1.13 10 per barrel. The report cites
an instance Of a well In Wyoming
which produced $500 barrels, valued
at $4,000, 81 per barrel, as against
5,475 barrels in 1898 of the same value.
The oil Of Wyoming is largely lubricat-
ing and cylinder oil, and Its good quail
ity and Its scarcity in that section ac-
counts for the high price Indications
point to long continuance Of this sup
ply and an increase is looked for il,
next years production.

A writer In the New York Sun gives
figures to show that the problem of

Of = tie is estimated at about five
years. The annual requirement Of the
