THE SITUS OF A DEBT, GENER-

The court says:

Boer Account of Recapture of Spion
Kop.

NoP
Boer Headquarters, Modder Spruit,
Upper Tugela, Wed tuesday,, January
"a, Midnight (via Lorenzo Marquee.
January %, delayed in transmiSsion.)
Some Vryheid burgherS from the out
posts on the highest hills of the Spion
kop group rushed into the lager say
ing that the kop was lost and hat the
English had taken it. Reinforcements
were ordered up but nothing could be
done for some time, the hill being en-
veloped in thick mist.
At dawn the Heidelberg and Carroll
ma contingents supplemented from
other commanders, began the ascent
OF the hill. Three spurs, precipitous
projections, faced the Boer positions.
Up these the advance was made. The
horses were left under the first terrace
of rocks.
Scaling the steep hi, the Beers found
thai the English had improved their
opportunity and intrenched heavily.
Between the lines of trenches was an
open veldt, which had to be rushed un-
der a heavy fire not only from rifles,
but of lyddite and shrapnel from field
guns.
Three forces assembled the three
spurs. co-~ordinately, under cover of
fire from the Free State K'upps, a
Creusot and a big MaXim. Inc Eng
lish tried to rush the Beers with the
b~ayonet, but their infantry went down
before the Poer rifle fire as before a
scythe.
The Foer invesrir3 party advanced
step by step until 2 o'clock in the af-
%ternoon, when a white flag went up
and $50 men in the front trenches sur
rendered, being sent as prisoners to the
head lager.
The advance continued on the two
.iopjes east of Spion kop. Many Beers
were shot, but So numerous were the
%burghers that the gap filled automati-
cally. Toward twilight they reached
the summit of the second kopje, but
did not get further.
The British Maxims belched flame,
but a wall of fire from the Mausers
held the English back. Their center,
under this pressure, gradually gave
way and broke. abandoning the posi-
ton.
The prisoners speak highly of the
bravery of the burghers, who, despis-
ing cover, stood against the skyline
edges of the summit to shoot the Dub
lin FuSileers sheltered in the trenches.
Firing continued some time and then
the Fusileers and the Light Horse serv-
ing as infantry threw up their arms
and rushed out of the trenches.

An unusually high proportion Of the

LABOR.

A correspondent in the Star recently,

negro laborers for the cane fields. The
scheme is worthy the attention of every
plantation agency, and everyone else
interested in the furture prosperity and
general advancement of the community.
Laborers we must have. japanese and
Portuguese we cannot get for they

must look to the Mainland, and the
Mainland alone, for our future workers
in the cane fields.
The Southern States compose our
most promising field; that section has
an over-plus of labor. 1t is also prob
ably the only section Of the United
States holding out a class of labor per-

The reopening of the Orpheum will
give pleasure to a large number of peo-
pie. There is no doubt that a music
hall of this class caters to the taste of
considerable circle. 1t affords the
needed relaxation to young men, who
would otherwise be loafing around bar
rooms to the detriment of their health
and reputation. AS time goes on the
white element grows larger, we shall
be able to support another theater of
the same class. What the city really
needs is a roof garden, 1t would be very
popular during the hot months Of the
year. At this season of the year we
very seldom have any rain, and nothing
would be pleasanter than to sit in the
open air and listen to the various turns
of a vaudeville performance, 1t would
be much more agreeable than sitting in
a hot theater. The day VIII come when
we shall have such an entertainment.

MEETING OF STRIKE LEADERS.
CONFERENCE QUESTION IS DISCUSSED
MITCHELL SAYS MEN ARE TO ACT
OF THEIR FREE WILL.

Hazleton Penn. Oct. IA conference which is
believed to mark the beginning of the end Of the
anthracite coal miners strike, which enters
upon its fourth week tomorrow was held at the
headquarters of the United Mine Workers here
this afternoon. Those present besides President
Mitchell were Fred Dilcher, of Ohio member
of the Executive Board, and Presidents T D.
Nichols Of District No. 1, Lackawanna and
Wyoming valleys; James Duffy, District No. Z,
Lehigh Valley and John Fahey, District No. g.
Schuylkin Valley Although no information
was given out 1t is known that the question of
issuing a call for a joint convention was the
principal matter discussed.
It can be announced that the coming conven-
ton will be held at Scranton unless something
unforeseen should arise between now and the
time Of issuing the call. Besides taking up the
| matter of a convention call, it is understood
that the question Of representation also
considered. The three district presidents made
! full reports as TO the conditions as they now
exist in the respective districts.
President Mitchell after the conference said
ne would have something to say tomorrow in
regard to the convention. If the date has been
fixed, only Mr.. Mitchell and his colleagues know
it. Mr.. Mitchell said to-day that not one official
of the United Mine Workers would take hand
| in any action the convention might take, as the
| men must themselves settle everything that
comes before them. The belief is general that
| the miners Will accept the increase
! Most Of the mine owners who have granted the
wage concession do not specify in their notices
how long the advance shall remain in force and
! 1t is not unlikely that attempt will be made
| by the miners in convention to open negotiations
with the operators looking toward an under
standing in the matter. President Mitchell and
the other labor leaders are strong advocates Of
| annual wage scale similar to
| that in force in the bituminous coal field. The
operators in those regions meet their employees
each year and fix the wage scale If this propo-
stion and that relating to the abolition of the
sliding scale are brought before the convention
| and negotiations with the mine owners are
! opened, it might considerably delay the settle
| naent of the strike.

COMPANIES OFFERS ENDED.
OPERATORS SAY THEY WILL MAKE NO
FURTHER ADVANCES.
tBY TELEGRAPH TO THE rR1BuNE.I

wilkesbarre, Penn, Oct. This week is ex-
pected to the first decisive step taken by the
United Mine Workers toward the settlement Of
the strike. The convention is to be called in this
city Scranton and lively meeting is ex-
pected, many of the strikers think that with
the region practically tied up the union can
force the operators to make greater concessions
than they have done. and are for keeping up the
strike. The operators. however, have reached
their limit. judging from what they say. T. H.
Watkins the head of the Temple Iron and Coal
Company, says;
The operators will grant no more than the 10
per cent; they have done their part, and If the
strikers do not accept the increase the RESPONSE
bility will rest with them. The operators want
the strike settled, and in granting the increase
have done more than they really afford to
do. The operators do not blame the men for
asking for better wages, and they would gladly
pay better wages were they getting a better
price for their coal.
The general superintendent of one of the
largest coal carrying companies said:
Ten per cent is all we can do We will not
grant arbitration or recognize the union, and
the men are only wasting time by remaining on
strike.
The union has refused to allow the Haddock
Coal Company to do some timbering in order to
keep its mines in condition. ]. c. Haddock
came on from New-York yesterday and met his
men. He explained that the mines needed re-
pairs, and the setting OF a few timbers now
would prevent damage but the local union to
which his men belong refused to allow men to do
the work.
The Pennsylvania Coal Company will to-mor-
row endeavor to keep the strikers their wives
and children from picking coal at the large
banks at the No. 2 shaft. These banks have
been crowded each day. The officials say they
do not object to the strikers picking coal for
their own use. but they have learned that many
Of them sell 1t, and will stop the picking A
