bined. 1t would be very strange if it
did not. If 1t is bothering the govern-
ment at all. though never so little, this
statement must be true for no one who
has followed the policy regarding Cuba
and the FfIipinos viii ever accuse the
government of losing any sleep over it.
In Cuba the only policy seems TO be
to let things runs along as they are. In
the meantime the public are to believe
that the administration is waiting only
for such a time as the government of
the island can safely be entrusted to
the Cubans- There are some skeptics.
however, who. from the drift of the
straws in the Hanna puddle, have be-
gun to wonder if the waiting policy IN
Cuba is not more for tbs purpose Of

tunity 20 make some outbreak that
would furnish a convenient peg on

Then It would, of course, become our
plain duty to gather them in, even as q

AS to the Philippines, the cause for
worry. IS even less. So long as the war

impediments. There is surely nothing
TO worry bout ltere.
But in China the situation is Slightly
different. Mr.. Hanna, per W. Mex,
may play the Gator in Cuba and the
sultan of LuzOn. but in China there are
d whole lot Of nations interested who
are just as greedy as Mr.. Hanna. In
consequence. the administration finds
itself up against one proposition where
it is necessary to respect the rights of
others, they being strong enough 90
take care of themselves, and in so
novel a situation, confronted with such
unprecedented conditions, it is not
wonderful that the administration
should at length be forced to do a lit

the other fellow.

THE ANTHRACITE Strike
Secret Negotiations Believed to Be
in Progress.
Mr.. MarkIe Declines to Reveal the
Result of His New York Confer
tIement-Ranks of Miners Stead
lily Increased by New Recruits.

HAZLETON, Pa, Oct. 5.-The great
anthracite strike seems to be no nearer
a settlement, as far as anyone knows,
than 1t was week ago. 1t is known
that negotiations are in progress, de-
spite all of President Mitchell's denials,
but with whom and between whom can
not be ascertained. John Markle, of
G. B. Markle & Co., who has been in
consultation with officials of the carry
ing companies for the last few days in
New York, returned from there last
night. but declined to say anything re-
garding the result of his mission. Frank
Pardee. of A. Pardee & Co., who has
been with Mr. Markle in New York,
was equally reticent.
While nothing can be said as to what
the basis of settlement will be, it is un-
derstood that il the operators will agree
to grant the increase Of 10 per cent on a
fixed basis. reduce the price of powder,
and institute the semi imonthly pay sys-
tenn the men will return to work. Mean
while President Mitchell is simply waiting
the outcome Of the fight between the In
dfyiduai operators and the coal carrying
companies. AS a matter of fact, Mr.
Mitchell cannot do anything until an Of
FER enlanating from all the coal carrying
companies and operators is made to him.
In the general strike situation in this
region there were no notable changes this
morning. There are about 1000 men work
ing out Of the 5000 usually laboTing IN
and about the mines and the collieries are
steadily losing Outside Of a little stone
throwing by women sympathizers at LattI-
mer eollieTy this morning, there were No
disturbances.
In the Lansford district the miners held
a meeting last night TO discuss the ques-
tion Of striking and voted unanimously 10
remain at work. The company has notified
the men that il would settle any grievances
they may have and give them any increase
the strikers receive in case settlement is
made On the other hand, the labor lead
ers say that the coliieries in the Panther
Creek Valley will soon be tied un.
