Operators Have Not Been Informed
 of Action of Miners Convention.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 17.-Not a sin gle committee of the strikers has called on the operators to present the propost- tions formulated by the convention at Scranton on Saturday. As the conyen- tion admitted that a presentation by committee from each colliery was the on- ly way in which the operators could be approached, this delay of two days is not understood. The operators themselves. who expected the committees on Monday. cannot explain it, and the strikers will not. They admitted that many of the To- cal unions held meetings and appointed committees, but will not say when they were instructed to see the operators.
 The expectation of the strike ending to- day, which cheered so many of the strik- CTS, is vanishing, as the strikers have fail ed to receive any news from headquar- ters to that effect and as the operators are still unanimous in their determina. ton to grant no more than the 10 per cent which they offered two weeks ago yesterday.
 General Superintendent Lathrop of the Lehigh Valley company said last evening: ''There is not the least sign of weakness on the part of the operators. None will give in. We made a fair of fer and will stand by it. There is not the slightest indication of the strike be- ing ended today or tomorrow"

PRINCES ADVICE TO MANDARINs
They Are Told to Have Patience, Keep ArsennIs Going and Prepare For New Massacre-Friendiy Vice roy Removed.

London, Oct. 17.-Hongkong dispatch ts tell of the continued spread of the southern rebellion. The Hongkong cor respondent of The Daily Express sends A report that the British torpedo boat destroyer Handy shelled 2.0Oo rebels who were advancing on San-chui, killing 40 and wounding hundreds.
 There Is no confirmation of the report ed capture of Pao-ting-fu, of which, ac- cording to the Shanghai Echo, NJ. Do- chine, the French consul there. has re- ceiyed news. The report is generally dis credited in London.
 The evidence of Prince Tuan's con tinuance in power causes anxiety. Ac- cording to the Shanghai correspondent of The Morning Post, it has produced a se- rious depression in trade there. Two Chinese banks have failed. Others are expected to close, and it is reported that the Russo-Chinese bank is in difficulties.
 Shanghai advices say the local man. darins have received a dispatch from Prince Yuan stating that the court Is now in safe keeping and exhorting them to have patience until winter kills on some of the allies, to keep the arsenals In constant work and everything in readi- ness for a massacre of all foreigners pIOptE dIElNtS. ~ iS also reported that the empress dowager has issued a decree removing Liu Kun Ii. vieeroy of Nankin, and ordering Gen eral Yung Lu to join her at Si-ngan-fu.
 Reactionary Mantchoos Appointed.
 The Shanghai correspondent of The Times, wiring yesterday, says:
 Tt is reported on good authority that Liu Kun Ii telegraphed today to Sir Robert Hart. begging him to use his best endeavors to negotiate peace. This indicates that the Nankin yiceroy fears an extension of the troubles If the pres ent situation is allowed to continue.
 Further appointments of reactionary Mantchoos to high positions in the Yang tse region shows an intention to break the power of the friendly viceroys."
 A dispatch by the Havas agency to Paris, dated Tien-tsin, says:
 '"The British ambassador, being in formed from London of the basis of ne gotiations proposed by NJ. Delcassc. French minister of foreign affairs, called a meeting of the diplomatic corps in Pe- king. The French propositions VI re unanimously approved, and appreciation was expressed of Frances initiative. United States Minister Conger alone raised objection, not against the proposi- tions, but against the method of pro cedure. He held that the French propo- sitions would have to be imposed upon the Chinese during the negotiations.

PRESSED FLOWERS.

Flowers are pressed and dried in books Gone lucent colors, fresh and new; Gone sweetness, swaying, bloom and dewl And thoughts are mummied there in books No light of eye nor boise of head, The thought that's written is unsaid. And yet one touch of natures there, And memory leads us true, From withered leaf to budding flower, From moldering dust to freshening shower, From musty page to odorous air, From words to thoughts anew.
