WEIGH, w. Va, August AT
Keystone, twenty-five miles north, last
night, fight occurred among a num-
Der of white and black miners and a
race war was narrowly averted
Officer Henry Messer, while attempt
ing to arrest a negro was attacked and
compelled to open fire on the crowd.
He killed John Lowry and slightly
injured another.
This incensed the negroes and they
formed mob for the purpose of doing
Messer bodily injury. Messer was TAX
en- to his boarding house where a
strong guard stood watch all night to
prevent violence. The negroes paraded
the streets the greater part of the
night and many Of them refused to
go to work this morning. Further
trouble is feared.
The whites claim they are amply
able to cope with any difficulty that
may arise, Notwithstanding more than
half the population of the keystone are
negroes. Messer was taken to WEIGH
this afternoon for a preliminary hear
ing.

CUMBERLAND, Md, August 2.-The
number of miners who went to work
to-day was LOO, being an increase of
200 over that of yesterday.
While there was no bloodshed on the
second day of the attempt to end the
strike, there were many sensational
features.
This morning at 8 o'clock, the town
OF Frostburg was shaken by terrible
explosion, and it was soon learned that
the dwelling Of Thomas Powell had
been torn from it's foundation with
dynamite.
He is a prominent anti-striker. The
family barely escaped with their lives.
1t is reported tonight that 1000
miners are marching from the Meyers
dale region, eighteen miles distant,
and which is a portion of this district,
TO be on hand tomorrow morning for
the purpose of intimidation.
The report cannot be verified.
1t is the general impression that the
strike is broken and that by Monday
next the 5000 miners, idle since April
18th, will all be working.
VIM. Warner, of Pittsburg, the strike
leader, has been on trial here for two
days on charge of libel, preferred by
a member of the union. The case
reached the jury this evening, but no
verdict had been reached up to a late
hour tonight
His absence from the region left the
strikers to-day without a leader.
This morning at Homecoming 4 mob
OF strikers assembled on a private
path leading TO one of the mines for
the purpose of intimidation. Mrs.
Henry Koontz, a miners wife. ordered
them to leave. She was later Joined
by thirty other women who drove the
strikers away, and then sent word to
the sheriff that they would guard the
path until he arrived with his deputies.
When the miners started to work
this morning there were 900 strikers
at Homecoming. The mothers, wives
and daughters, fearing those who were
going TO work would be assaulted, ac-
eompanied them TO the mines and then
marched in among the striking ele-
ment and prayed with them to return
to work.

A Scheme to be Put Into Operation
to Make municipalities Pay Ac-
cOrding to Benefits.

"A ScAcme 10 ne IuI INTO operation
to Make municipalities Pay Ac-
cOrding to Benefits.
HAVANA, August 2-There are 126
municipalities in Cuba and all are in
terested in changes being made in the
municipal tax law. Under Spanish rule
taxation was practically unlimited.
Gen. Brooke fixed taxation in munich
palities at eight per cent of net in
come derived from property. General
Wood, however, is inaugurating tax,
not above twelve per cent on preferred
property by pro rata to expenditures in
the principal cities and in others six
to eight per cent of net income from
property. Thus if individual cities will
be taxed in keeping with expenditures,
they are willing to assume the rate of
taxation sliding up or down with
municipal disbursements. Under this
plan no city may escape individual re-
sponsibility for its expenditures and for
the tax rate.
In consequence of the decrease of
wages a strike was threatened on the
United Railways, but Senior Villalon,
secretary of public works, received a
deputation of locomotive engineers to-
day, with the result that the men re-
sumed work. Senior Villalon was cor
daily thanked on behalf of the rail-
ways by Senior Albert Xemlno, the man
ager. The companies had only paid
per cent and this was given as the
excuse for the reduction of wages. The
railways are under the control of Brit
ish capital.

HARRISBURG, w. Va, August O.
Three hundred miners are on a strike
at Pinnickinnick mines Nos. / and 2.
They went out to-day.
The strike is a protest against the
company selecting physician without
consulting the miners.
Drs. Hood and Haynes have been the
physicians at mine No. 2 and DR.. NJ J.
Bartlett at No. 1, for several years I'M
der an agreement between the miners
and the company. their pay being 81
a month for every married man, and
so cents for every single man.
A large majority of the miners at
No. 1 petitioned that Drs. Hood and
Haynes be employed in the place OF
DR.. Bartlett. The petitions were ie-
fused.
A proposition was submitted early
in July by the miners to the company
that the miners be allowed to employ
any physician they wanted, the COM
pany to pay for services.
1t was understood that proposition
was conceded in by the company, but
ten days ago the company posted no.
tees that it would employ the physi-
clan of its own choice, and all miners
who did not like it could quit
The company, to carry out this plan,
employed DR.. c. NJ. Easter, of Florida,
whose services were to begin yester-
day. Drs. Hood and Haynes were ro-
titled of their discharge.
The miners held a mass meeting on
the night Of August l, and decided to
strike to-day. No concessions have
been made, and the strike is still on.

WASHINGTON, August 2.-Presi-
dent Mckinley. accompanied by Sec
rotary Cortelyou, reached Washington
at 1850 this morning.
At all the stations through Ohio and
Pennsylvania, while daylight lasted,
crowds congregated. While the Presi-
dent appeared on the rear platform
several times in response to the greet
ings OF the people, the stops were
brief and he made no attempt TO speak.
AT Economy, Pa, Mr.. Abner Mckinley,
the Presidents brother, boarded the
train and rode with the President as
far as PittsbuIg.
The President was met at the train
by Secretary Root, Gen. Corbin and
executive Clerk Pruden, who accom-
panied him to the White House.
There is no particular significance in
the Presidents trip to Washington at
this time. When he returned to Can
ton two weeks ago he arranged to come
to Washington every fortnight to dis
pose of such official business as had
accumulated in the meantime, and to
go personally over the Chinese situa-
ton with his cabinet advisers. In this
way the necessity of sending many
bulky papers TO Canton for his exam
nation and signature would be avoid
ed aud the President would have an OPP
portunity periodically of consulting
with the members of the cabinet 1t is
officially stated that nothing had de-
veloped in connection with the Chin
csc situation which especially de-
manded his presence in Washington
at present. 1t is the Presidents inten-
ton to return to Canton tomorrow
night.
Soon after the President reached the
White House a call for a cabinet meet
Ing for 10 o'clock this forenoon was
sent out. Aside from this, each of the
cabinet officers who is In the city will
hold an individual conference with the
President. Secretary Long, who intend
ed leaving last night for bingham,
Mass, on his annual vacation, remain
ed over and called upon the President
on his way to the station this morning
While the Secretary had no new
dispatches from China he discussed the
general phases of the situation with the
President. He announced that the Pres
ident was unusually well and in fine
spirits.
The special cabinet meeting lasted
about 21a hours. The discussion was
confined almost exclusively to the Chi
nese situation. All the details of the
situation since the President went TO
Canton two weeks ago were carefully
gone over and a general exchange of
views was had The definite informa-
ton of the safety of the legationers at
Pekfn and the hope for their final res
cue were considered the best features
of the situation. The administration
desires an immediate movement on
Pekin if it can be inaugurated without
too much danger, and while no news
has come from Gen. Chaffee that the
forward march has begun, such news is
hourly expected.
No change in the present policy of
the government resulted from the meet
ing to-day. The action of Secretary
Hay in notifying the powers that the
United States government had inform
ed Ii Hung Chang that we insisted on
being placed in communication with
our minister was unanimously en-
dorsed and commended as step which
must impress upon Ii and the Chinese
government the fact that this country
Is not TO be trifed with.
