RUMOR THAT OPERATORS
MAY BREAK UP STRIKE

Scranton, Sept. 27.-Tha gains that
the strikers have been making in the
Schuylkill region have had the effect
OF rousing the operators of this district
TO activity, and steps are now being
taken to drive the entering wedge that
will, It is figured, break up the strike.
A prominent operator said today that
the policy so far pursued of waiting
for the strike to break up OF itself will
be abandoned early next month, unless
something occurs this week to indicate
that action on the part of the operators
will be unnecessary. The plan Of the
operators is to have each of the big
corporations start up a few mines and
keep them going at all costs. 1t Is con-
fidently expected that the employees OF
four and possibly five individual col
lieries will resume work when the big
companies begin to get under way, and
with a good proportion of the men back
ut work 1t will not be long before all
will have returned.
That this move is not far distant Is
attested by the fact that 200 deputies
have been sworn in by Sheriff Pryor
at the instance of the coal companies
during the past few days, and that com
missions for 400 coal and iron police
issued by Governor Stone were receiv-
ed yesterday and distributed among
the five big companies, the Delaware
and Hudson, Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western, Pennsylvania. Temple
Iron company and Hillside Coal and
Iron company.
The washeries continue to work with
fairly full forces, and the strikers are
making no particular attempt to pre-
vent them from operating.
Affairs were quiet yesterday through
out the region. A shooting affray oc.
CURED near Scranton in which three
men We're wounded, but the partici-
pants. who were Italians, were all
strikers, and the affray had no direct
connection with the present strike.

ALL THE hines IDLE
In THE WYOMING VALLEY

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Sept. 27.-The
tenth day OF the strike has closed
without any change In the Wyoming
valley. All the mines that were idle
the first day were idle today. And the
one mine that continued in operation
the first day is still at worl-the one
at Mocanaqua. The operators seem to
be abiding their time, confident that
in the end victory is going to be on
their side. The strikers, on the other
hand, are just as confident If their
leaders are to be believed, the men are
more confident OF winning now than
at any time since the strike was in
augurated.

Frankfort, Ky, Sept. 27.-James b.
Howard, who has been on trial for the
past ten days charged with being a
principal in the assassination of Will
lam Goebel, was found guilty yester-
day, the jury fixing his punishment at
death.
The fact that the jury had deliber-
ated all of Tuesday afternoon without
reaching a verdict led to the belief
that it was hopelessly divided, and this
fact made the verdict shocking TO How
ard and those who hoped for his ulti-
mate acquittal.
Howard did not lose his composure
when the verdict calling for the ex-
treme penalty of the law was read in
the crowded court room. He glanced
at his attorneys and smiled, but said
nothing. After the jury had been dis
charged Howard was taken back to
the Jail, and here for the first time
he betrayed emotion. He called for a
pen and paper and wrote a long letter
to his wife, during which tears cOursed
down his cheeks. He was Joined later
by his attorneys, who spent a good
part Of the day in conference with him
in regard TO the motion for a new
trial, which will be fled today, and
other matters in connection with the
case.
w. II. Culton, who is under indict-
ment as an accessory to the Goebel
murder and who gave damaging evil
dence against both Howard and Caleb
Powers, was released on bail yester-
day afternoon and his case was con-
tinued until the January term. His

Washington, Sept. 27.-The secretary

minent between Chile on the one hand

tended that Chile will not abide by the
award of the British government in the
boundary question with the Argentine
Republic, and that Il refuses to sub

bond was ixed at $4,000, and his
brother-in-law, E. Z. Hogg, OF Owsley
county, and J. r. Halcombe and John
Johnson, of Jackson county, became
his sureties.
Howard and his friends are very
bitter in their denunciation of Witness
es, who, it is charged, were in the con-
spiracy to murder Goebel and who
have since been manufacturing testi-
mony against others in order to OBJ
tain immunity for themselves. How
ard was represented by ex-Congress-
man W. G. Owens, of Georgetown, and
Carl Little, Of Manchester. The prose-
cution was represented by Acting Com
monwealth Attorney Williams, I. c..
Campbell. Of Cincinnati, and II. E.
Golden. of Barboursville.
Jim" Howard as he is commonly
known in the mountains, is a striking
~ handsome man, "A years Of age, and
would be one Of the last to be pointed
out by q stranger as the man on trial.
He had the record, however, of being
the leader of the Howard White fac
tiOn in the Baker Howard feud in Clay
county in which numerous lives We're
taken. He had killed George Baker,
and was suspected Of the assassination
of Tom Baker. who was killed after
the same fashion as the Goebel muir
der, and Howard's friends believe that
these facts had very much to do with
the making Of the verdict sentencing
him to the gallows.
The trial of Henry z. Youtsey, of
Newport, will be called next at

NvEWEEs S0sVEllea
london Mail: The Chinese have
for long been famous for the peculiar
ity and ie%ndishness Of their tortnres.
There is. to begin with, the torture
of molten lead. The victim is bound
hand md foot with ropes. and n bar
her shnves his head till it is speckless.
Then a cloth is bound tightly round.
the skull while lead is being melted
under intense heat in a pot. Binding
his prisoner to an upright post until
movement is impossible, the exccu-
toner moy the cloth from the
skull and takes a small spoon, holding
one drop of the molten lead. The e&-
posure creates a feeling of cold, and.
before this has died away the drop of
lead falls upon the barred head, eating
into the flesh.
Another favorite torture acts upon
the mind and the palate. All the pris-
oner's food and drink is tainted with a
peculiar nll-pervading favor. 1t is
never absent. The victim, in all prob
ability, believes that he is being slow
|ly poisoned, and, moreover, the con-
slant recurrence of the flavor in every
thing he touched creates nausea. In a
third torture, that of the white bird,
the prisoner is bound in a sitting posi-
ton at the foot Of n tree. His ankles
are secured in a species of stocks. He
can see his legs as far as the ankles,
but he cannot see what goes on at the
other side of the stocks, where his feet
project. A little distance above the
toes a little rod of wood, like a birds
perch, is placed. On the perch is a
white bird with n strong and piercing
beak. In that position it is starved,
until, sooner or later, it begins to eat
the toes and feet of the ngonized VIC
tim,
