ROY AL COUPLE
Prince Albert and His Bride Arrive at
 Brussels

Brussels, October 6.-Prince Albert of Bel gium and his bride, the Duchess Elizabeth of Bavaria, arrived here shortly after o'clock. King Leopold and the Countess of Flanders met them as they descended from the train. The Queens health prevented her presence at the railroad station.
 As the royal party left the station a choir composed of school children sang can- tata. Outside the crowd. which was large, stood respectful, but did not give vent to any cries or acclmations. he police regua- tions were very stringent. The boulevards along which the royal family passed to the palace were strongly guarded, but there was no disturbing incidents. The workmens party pasted a number walls with procla- nations, asking its members not to partic- ipate in the demonstrations, but 1t Is claimed the composition of the crowds showed that the request was not needed
 All danger of a hostile demonstra tion has not passed. Prince Albert and his bride are to witness a procession of 700 school chil- dren tomorrow. The authorities of this city have been in session all day, and efforts have been made to persuade the Socialists to abandon their projects. This the Social ists have refused to do and the authori- ties therefore have decided to bar all the streets leading the the square In front of the Bourse only admitting thereto people who have previously obtained tickets.

NO DEVELOPMENTS
United States Claim Against Turkey
 Still Pending

Washington, October 6.-Inquiry at the State Department discloses the fact that there have been no recent developments in the matter of the claim of the United States against Turkey for indemnification on account of missionary property de- stroyed at Harpoot and elsewhere several years ago. The claim has been presented several times to the Turkish government, the most recent petition being made by MT. Griscom, charge d'affaires at Constan- tinople. In each case the Turkish govern ment, instead of repudiatng the claim, has promised settlement. And this is the state of the case at present.
 Some months ago Admiral Ahmid of the Turkish navy came over here to purchase ship, with the unofficially understood purpose of compromising with the claim ants under the cover of purchase He car ried home a number of plans from Amerf- can shipbuilders but he did not buy ves- sel as far as Is known here Meanwhile. with a view to impressing upon the Turk ish government Its dissatisfaction with its dilatoriness the State Department has al- lowed Mr. Strauss, our minister to Turkey, to remain in the United States. There the matter rests for the present. There have been no developments and none are ex- pected in the very near future

SHERIFF HARVEY
Gives Authentic Account of the Lattimer
 Affair

Wilkesbarre, Pa., October 6.-Sheriff Har- vey came to Wilkesbarre from Hazleton this afternoon. His story of the Lattimer affair this morning is as follows:
 "At o'clock this morning I had half dozen deputies at Lattimer. Shortly after that hour we heard in the distance the tramp of many feet and occasionally the rumble of wagon wheels Listening, we could hear the tramp, tramp In other di- rections.
 Tn the dim light we saw several hundred men. They were unarmed and seemed peaceful. From the woods came another several hundred, and from another direc- ton came nine wagon loads of women. Near the end of the town we saw what appeared to be a thousand strikers, and simultan- eously all these bands met in the center of the town. They continued marching in street. As soon as one band marched to an extreme end of the town 1t would counter march, the other bands acting In sim liar manner, and by that means for nearly two hours they occupied the street in files of eight and twelve It was utterly impos- sible for any one to cross the street or pass through this compact mass of moving hu- manity.
 Passing the company barns, the drivers were unable to get out the mules. The frightened occupants of the company houses did not attempt to pass out to work or anywhere else. The marching was con- tinued until after T o'clock, when the strik- CTS, having accomplished their object, with drew as silently as they came They had closed the Lattimer mines, for when the whistle sounded there were no responses of employees"

BIG DEMONSTRATION
Strikers March in Large Body and Lis
 ten to President Mitchell

Shenandah, Pa., October 6.-Over 5000 striking mine workers marched through streets today and later listened to words of encouragement from National President Mitchell of the United Mine Workers of America. The strikers came from all sec tions of the anthracite coal region. Every man and boy in the parade carried an American flag. President Mitchell in his address at the Mine Workers mass meeting here this afternoon announced for the first time that he will call a joint convention of the mine workers in a few days that the men may themselves decide whether the 10 per cent net advance in wages is enough.
 President Mitchells most important statement was one informing the strikers that they would soon meet in convention. He said:
 "If you believe net advance of 10 per cent in your wages is enough then your votes will decide the question. If not, the strike should go one'
 MT. Mitchell again denied the charges that the strike was brought on for political purposes and that the bituminous coal op- orators were connected with it.

sWORK OF RELIEF
Galveston Committee Makes More App
 populations

Galveston, Texqas October 6.-By action of the Central Relief Committee today $5O00O was appropriated for repairing wrecked homes and $100,o0o for building homes for those whose residences were completely destroyed. The recipients of this assistance are to be determined by the building committee
 Miss Barton has submitted to the build ing committee plans for four-room cottages to accommodate twelve persons each, and has made a complete bill for the lumber and materials necessary to house 5000. The value of the material will be $15O,00O to $2O0 OOO and the cost of labor $40,O00 to $5o,- GOO. Miss Barton thinks she can secure by direct contribution the greater portion of the material, and she will issue an appeal therefor. The building committee reports that excessive wages are declining, and the indications are that normal conditions will be reached within ten or fifteen days.
 Ten thousand dollars was appropriated for the purchase of tools sewing machines, etc., for persons who are able to support themselves but are unable to buy tools

or daily meeting or communicating with the committee headed by Mayor Jones and Chairman McVittie, respectively. I have at their solicitation counseled with them day by day. l have been permitted to know the details of their work and relief transactions by sitting daily in executive session with them. It would be strange, indeed, If 10000 tons of food of every con- cefvabie character could be hurriedly gath cred by tens of thousands of people in the Northwest and sent to- this climate of which little Is known by many of them and a great deal of perishable and unsuit- able material be included. The goods sent here were no exception although 1t has seemed to me remarkable that so little of that nature was sent The question of selling the very small quantity of such provisions and thus securing the greatest measure of benefit from the donation was most earnestly and thoroughly considered by the committee. l firmly advised the sale of all such foods, so limited in quan- tity, where the money thus received would afford greater benefit and the goods them- selves be made use of, rather than spoil in the warehouse on the grounds that the donors had chosen as wisely as they knew, but that If their selection had not been the most suitable they would accept of the committee the exercise of as much busi- ness judgment as though engaged in their own affairs.
 'As to the calibre, business capacity un- stinted, earnest application to the work in hand and the integrity of the committee individually and collectively, I have never known their equal. I am not prone to vol- unteer my endorsement either of persons or committees, but I take pleasure in as- surng the people of our country that their donations could not be more wisely eco- nomically and honorably dispensed than is being done by the Galveston committee.

AT LATTIMER
Strikers Succeed in Closing Two Big
 Collieries

Hazleton, Pa., October 6. - Nearly 2OOO marched into Lattimer early this morning and completely tied up the two colIieries of Calvin Pardee & Co. located at that place. It was the greatest march that has taken place during the present strike.
 The crowd was made up of strikers from McAdoo. Audenreid, Jeanville and Hazle- ton on the south side, and from Harwood Jeddo, Freeland and UpperLehigh on the north side. The women and girls came from the now famous borough of McAdoo Sheriff Harvey and a handful of deputies were at Lattimer when the strikers arrived and they kept the marchers constantly on the move. There was no disturbance at any time, the men and women being well behaved.
 It was the most exciting day that Lartti- mer has had since the tragedy of three years ago. Three strikers from the south side concentrated on the back road to the place. They had left their homes at mid night. The women, including Mother" Jones, were conveyed in wagons, while the men walled. It was little before 6 o'clock when the 1000 Southside entered Lat timer, headed by a fife and drum corps and the women. The leader of the women, who was a pretty Polish girl carried a large American flag. They marched and counter marched on the Lattimer public road until ' o'clock, when the whistles blew for the starting of work att the collieries. A shout went up from the crowd as it saw that no one responded to the call.
 Shortly after this faint cheer was heard in the distance, and suddenly a crowd which proved to be the Northside march CTS who had gathered in the opposite side of the town, burst through gate on the further end of the company's property about half a mile away. They came streaming in by the hundreds and rushed down the company's railway then across the strippings and joined the Southside force on the public road and on the very spot where the twenty-two marchers were shot by deputies in 1897. While the men were running across the companys prop erty it looked as if the leaders of the Southside strikers would lose control of the men and they would break and overrun the private grounds, but they were held in erty the sheriff with his small force would have been absolutely powerless to deal with the 2000 cheering marchers
 The combined force, after short rest, formed two by two and, with the women and girls in the lead, started on another parade through the town. The women narchers called the Lattimer men black legs and other hard names, and while they were thus assailed they remained mute for fear of being attacked. This was kept up until o'clock, when the marchers began to leave for their various home towns.
 It Is not unlikely that the Lattinner col lieries will remain closed until the strike Is ended. Superintendent Westlake of the company said the question of drawing the fires from beneath the boilers will be de- cided later in the day. The officials of the company, he said. did not like the idea of fisking the lives of its men with mob like the one that swarmed over the com pany's property this morning. Outside the

 The Fairfax title is the subject of most comment in the Spectator, which says:
 The Tact that this most historic title belongs to American is a pleasant and picturesque illustration of how closely the two nations are allied by blood. We wish the title were now Scotch and that Lord Fairfax could every now and again take his seat in the House of Lords, the noble lord from the United States.
 While Mr Chamberlain is practically the only interesting figure In the struggle in England, there are in Ireland several men and Issues stirring up the country into such chaotic condition of party lines as has never occurred before, and 1t would excite the greatest interest were 1t not for the fact that the English are so occupied with their own local contests. It Is claimed that MT. Timothy Healy has split the Irish party to most as great degree as did the late Charles Stewart Parhell and that the bit- terness injected into the fight equals that of the historic division. The Freeman's Journal declares that anyone voting for MT. Healy's candidate is without an atom of self-respect" and describes his campaign as one secret calumny and villifcation"
 The paper planes him for the loss of Galway. saying: Galway has disgraced the national solidarity, broken once made by reason of renegade home rulers and the flag of the union has been planted beyond the shannon"
 On the other hand the Dublin Independ- ent supports MT. Healy and Cardinal Logue has also come out with a declara- ton in his favor.
 As result of the split Londonderry and Galway have changed their colors and oth- CT constituencies are likely to follow suit
 The Duke of Abercorn, whose son, the Marquis of Hamilton, busted Count Moore from Londonderry, said to representative of the Associated Press:
 Frankly, you can say to the Americans that the people in my part of the country north are more prosperous and more thrifty than ever. The Irish channel, and lack of coal and many other facilities are draw backs to the developments of many of our industries, but everything will come in s..ne. and whether Ireland returns an in- creased or decreased National majority, slowly, perhaps, but surely. So We may eventually decrease the number of good Irishmen who annually go to your side of the water"

MSS BARTON DEFENDS WORK IF
 GALVESTON RELIEF COMMITTEE

Galveston, Tex, October 6.-Miss Clara Barton, president of the American Red Cross Society, tonight issued the following in answer to criticism in several news papers as to the method of distributing re- lief to the storm sufferers in this communi- ty:
 ITO the Public.
 My attention has been called to a state- ment said to have been printed in Detroit and Chicago newspapers to the effect that the relief fund sent to the Galveston gen. eral committee had been misappropriated, and that relief goods were being sold by the committee to local dealers to again be sold at high prices. It is we'll that the Galveston committee pays no heed to such statements but I feel 1t my duty to speak in its behalf, lest the report of any other of a similar unjust and cruel character gain circulation without contradiction.
 Ut is probably inevitable that one mill lion dollars or any other considerable sum or a large quantity of food and clothing could be donated for charity and philan- thropic purposes and the persons selected to distribute the charity escape unkind criticism. It is an unfortunate trait in the human character to assail or asperse oth- CTS engaged in humanitarian action. Per- haps few have had wider field for ob- serving this deplorable trait than myself The motive may not be questioned; 1t is of little moment compared with the cruel sting inflicted and the great wrong wrought not to those against whom the poisoned ar- row was aimed, but to the unfortunates who should be the recipients of the boun- ty so generously bestowed.

 WINDOW GLASS TRUST
Indepen ndent Manufacturers VIII Organize a Company to Compete With
 the Combine

Marion, Ohio, October 6.-The independent window glass manufacturers of the country are now at Pittsburg perfecting the organ izaton of the Independent Window Glass Company, which will act as selling agent for their factories. Its plans will be similar to those followed by the old American Win dow Glass Company, the predecessor of the present combination It is estimated that the Independent men will be able to start with combined daily output of 15,000 boxes of glass. This with the output of the CO., operative plants will be sufficient to supply the demand in this country. If the plans of the Independent carry out well, and they can produce thls much glass, they claim 1t will be a stunning blow to the trust
 The Independent Company will be capital ized a $25, GOO, or $25 for each pot represent ed. The headquarters will probably be at some Ohio city, where the company will be incorporated. The agent who will be appointed will apportion among the factor ies the orders he receives for glass It is thought that the efforts of the trust to down" the Independent factories is react ing and making them stronger than ever.

 tons Whereabouts

Galveston. Texas, October 6.-Mayor Wall ter G. Jones requests the Associated Press to send broadcast the following:
 "The Rcd Cross agent at New York tele- graphs that reports privately circulated have obtained publicity that Clara Barton has been in Washington two weeks. and Is there now, and that all need of relief work here Is past. This is untrue. Miss Barton has been here constantly since her arrival week after the storm. There is an im- mense amount of work still to be done. Corpses are still being found on an average of twenty a day. and she will remain here as long as the Red Cross can be of benefit to the stricken people, Galveston Is not ex- plotting her sorrows or sufferings, but thou sands are living in tents and hundreds are crippled" u<n.
