The Strike Still On.

SCRANTON, PA, oct. l3.-The miners
convention adopted the following reso
lutionS and adjourned sine die:
We would recommend that this con,
vention accept the 10 per cent advance
provided the operators will continue it,
payment until April 1, 1901; will abol
ish the sliding scale in the Lehigh and
Schuylkill regions, the scale Of wages in
the two last named districts to remain
stationary at 10 per cent, above the
present basis price; that the companies
agree to adjust other grievances com
planned of with committees of their
own employees.
should this proposition he unaccept-
able to the operators, we recommend
the convention propose that all ques-
tionS at issue be submitted to Il fair and
impartial board Of arbitration.
I'VE would further recommend that
under no circumstances whatever should
there he resumption of work at any of
the collierieS until the operators signify
their acceptance Of this proposition.
When You are notified officially that
the strike is ended, all return to work
in body on the same day.

Republican Officials Indicted for
Fraud.

HOPKINSN1LLE, KY, Oct ll.-Thlr-
teen indictments have been returned
by the Christian county grand jury
against prominent Republicans, includ-
ing several county officials for violation
of election laws Commonwealth At
torney Howell, who has been active in
uncovering these oifenses, says the full
extent Of the corruption has not yet
been disclosed and that if the present
grand jury had had sufficient time to
have handled the mass Of evidence
brought before it, indictments might
have been returned against Republicans
both white and black, for fraudulent
registration, false swearing and gross
irregularities. He says the public will
be astounded at the disclosures at trials
Of persons already indicted.
The list of indictments follows;
John p Prowse, County Clerk, max
ing false registration book, two cases
Same, obstructing and interfering with
the election at the court house precinct
last year
Polk Cansler County Judge, obstruct-
ing and interfering with election in the
same precinct
Elbert- Wiley, Republican challenger
and John w Wicks, election clerk; in
dictment same as above.
V. NJ Williamson, election judge; un-
lawfully opening ballot-boX and obtain
ing ballot during election.
John Wicks and Ebert Wiley; aid
ing and abetting Williamson in above
offense.
SimonWilcox, colored: false swearing
to register
Charles Shelby. colorcd; registering
in precinct other than his own.
The Democratic committee is deter
mined to put stop to election rascal
tiles and purify local politics as far as
possible With this end in view dupli-
Gates of the registration books for the
November election are being carefully
examined, and it has been found that
frauds have been perpetrated even at
this early time. The names Of four
former convicts are registered as Re
publcans among the frauds discovered.
y list of over 100 unpardoned ex-con-
victs, who are living in various parts Of
Christian county, was received to-day
from the prison authorities and will
be compared with names on poll
books
1t is probable that the next grand
jury will return more indictments for
election frauds than the late one, for
the committee is said to have II mass
Of damaging evidence to lay before that
body in February.
