Judge Canfrili Grants n Change OF
Venue for Five Of the Defendants.


Venue for Five of the Defendants.
Frankfort, KY, May LATTER hear
Ing the testimony of about forty wit
nesses and brief arguments by coun-
sci for both the prosecution and the
defense, Judge Cantrill granted the Pc
tition Of five Of the defendants, charged
with completely in the Goebel assassi-
nation, for change of venue. Those
who Joined in the petition were Repub-
lican Secretary Of State Caleb Powers,
Captain John W. Davis, Henry E. Yout-
sey, Harland Whitaker and Richard
Combs, colored. The attorneys failed to
agree upon what county the cases shall
be taken to. The defense suggested
Bourbon county, where the next term
of court begins the second Monday in
June. The prosecution objected on
statutory grounds, and suggested in
stead G. special term OF court in either
Woodford or Scott counties for the
trials. Judge Cantrill took the matter
gnder adYisement and will decide to-
morrow.
The bearing of proof in the motions
for bail fer these defendants and also
for w. T. Co91ton, who did not ask
change Of venue, will begin tomorrow
will take up the remainder Of the week
and will be practically complete so far
as the available evidence on both Gides
Is concerned.
The routine proceedings Of the court
were mainly tedious and uninteresting.
All the witnesses who testified in the
matter of the motion for a change Of
venue were Democrats. The Common
wealth rested it's case at $3.50, and the
defense through Colonel Nelson moved
that the change of venue be granted
On the testimony Of the witnesses for
the State, the defense declining to in
troduce any witnesses, though large
numbers had been summoned for that
purpose. The motion was argued at
length by Colonel T. G. Campbell and
Judge Williams for the prosecution and
by Mr.. Kinkhead and Colonel Nelson
for the defense, and was granted at
the conclusion of the arguments.

Working I'm Two Mines.
HaZelton, Pa, Oct. 6-The first act
ual clash between bodies of working
miners and strikers and strike sympa-
thizers occurred yesterday morning.
The trouble happened near to the old
Lattimer battle-ground, where the trag-
edy Of 80 was enacted. In all this re-
giOn there are only two collieries run
ming anywhere near full-handed.
These are Lattimer and Beaver Meod-
ow. They are on opposite sides of the
city and desperate efforts are being
made to keep them open. Men who
are willing to work in all the surround
ing hamlets, but whose own mines are
closed down, are invited 10 work in
these two mines. The result is that
'Lattimer, especially. has become Il
general bone OF contention instead of q
local issue.
Marches have been of daily occur
renee. PicketS guard the road and
meetings and personal solicitation
have all been employed to keep the
men out of the mines. The labor lead

men to close the mines twice over, but

recruits the breaker has been kept sup

Meeting of Individual Operators.
Scranton, Pa, Oct. 6.-The individual
operators at their meeting here yeSter-

committee that went to New York on
Monday, presumably toask concessions
on freight rates from the coal-carry-
ing railroads. They agreed to Join
in the offer of a 10 per cent. Increase
in wages made by the big companies.
One of those present says the commit
tee did not secure any concessions. bur

vidual operators expect consideration
in this line they viii stand better
show of getting it by ceasing their re-
volt.
Up to President Mitchell Now.
Wilkesbarre. Pa, Oct. 6-The crisis
in the coal miners strike seems to
be approaching. President Maxwell,
of the Central railroad of New Jersey,
says tnat the companies have made all
the concessions they propose to make.
The individual operators will all fall
in line and give their employees the 10
per cent increase granted by the big
companies. 1t iS row M TO Presi-
dent Mitchell TO decide what he IS
going TO do in the matter. An analysis
of the 10 per cent. increase offered
shows that the aver: ge miners wages
would not be increased fully 10 per
cent should he return to work, but It Is
argued that 1t is better than nothing:
that ii is the entering
wedge, and that If the United Mine
Workers keep their organization in
taoct they can compel the operators to
make further concessions in the years
to come. 1t is said that President
Mitchell takes this view of the situa-
tiOn himself
