Chairman Charles G. Swain has re-

we'll known to our citizens, having
lived here until two wears ago, when
he went to New York City. He now
is at the head of the Annis company,
furriers, of that city, and is familiar
with the conditions there. His letter
is of interest and reads.
New YORK, Oct. IL, 1900.
Mr.. Charles Swain, Richmond, Ind:
Dear Sir:-I am sending you under

without suggestion. 80, 900 of these
copies printed and scattered ABOUT
the city. He is not plutocrat, but
a man of small means who works
hard for his living and has wife
and seven children to support.
He has had practical lesson taught
him. Having invested small sum
of money he had saved, the approach
ing election has cut down the value
of his investment, and he is work
| ing tooth and toe-nail to do some
thing to make few votes for Mckln-

tie ones. There is great deal oi
interest manifested here everywhere,
and believe that Mckinley

fact to note that the tenement dis

AT A STANDSTILL
Settlement Seems As Far Removed
As Ever.

Settlement Seems As Far Removed
As Ever.
Hazleton, Pa, Oct 20-As far as the
United Mine Workers of this region
are concerned, matters are at q stand
still In the anthracite mining contes,
with the operators. There Is nothina
new In the situation and President
Mitchell still refuses to talk.
Much disappointment is expressed In
this region because an early ending OF
the strike Is prevented by reason of
the powder grievance. What will be
done with this question is difficult To
forecast. and 1t is believed the United
Mine Workers officials have not vet
definitely decided what they will do.
Some of the strike leaders say tho
union officials are not authorized b.,
the Scranton convention to decide the
powder grievance and that another
of miners Will be neces-
snry TO dispose OF the question. A
workers says that the men throughout
the anthracite coal field are insistenr
on fiat 10 per cent. increase withou-
the powder reduction being considered
In figuring out the per centage Of ad
vance.
When he was asked what the United
Mine Workers would do II the opera
tors refused to recede from their
stand. he said the contest would con-
rinue until the operators made the
concession.
When II was suggested to him that
there might he q break In the ranks
of the strikers before the operators
would weaken. he expressed the ut
most confidence In the loyalty Of the
men In the entire region.
Notwithstanding the confidence of
the labor leaders In their ability to
hold the men together. there is belief
prevalent here that a break Will come
sooner or later. Strikers seeking ~
lief from the United Mine Workers arr
becoming more restless with each
succeeding day.
