Hon. f. w. Wilson. West virginia's
former Democratic governor, has writ
ten an able paper in favor of the reten-
ton OF the Philippines. Mr.. Wilson
contends that he is still Democrat,
but none the less an American. He
will have a splendid chance to engage
in an argument with the Democratic
leaders-Preston Republican.
1t seems that Hon. o. s. Mckinney
has decided to not allow the use of his
name as candidate for Congress in
this district. He has many friends who
will regret to learn this. Hon. w. G..

but has not yet shown any willingness
to do so.-Morgantown New Dominion.
The Wheeling 1ntelligencer is being

London, Sept. 25.-Lord Salisbury has
replied to the German note in terms
identical with those of the United
States reply.
The British premier's decision to re-
fuse TO agree to the terms of the Ger
man note was communicated verbally
to the German ambassador here, Count
Won tzfeldt-Wildenburg, during the
course of a long interview this after
noon. The news is not known here and
the exclusive information given to the
Associated Press of America probably
will not be made public officially in
England until the reply is on paper
and has been transmitted to Berlin.
That may be tomorrow or later. Only
a few officials are cognizant of what
Lord Salisbury said to Count Won Hatz-
feldt-Wildenburg in regard to the
latest development in the Chinese
question. In official circles here there
was an inclination to believe the pre-
mier would agree with Germany. But,
instead of doing so, he used almost eX-
actly the terms i'm which WashngtOn's
refusal was couched, and that, said a
high official to a representative of the
Associated Press, "is all the more as

We're correct in their first estimate of

The state department has not been
advised officially of the character of

proposition. 1t is gathered from the
Berlin dispatches that st. Petersburg
does not take exception to the foreign
ministers in Pekin indicating just who
were the parties responsible for the
outrages, but it is pointed out also
that the United States government did
not take exception specifically to such

tion was to the broad proposition to

OPERATORS COMMENT
ON MARKLE CASE
President olyphant Has Heard of No
Grievances from the d. & II. Men.
Switchmen Will Not Strike.
By Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press

By Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
New York, Sept. 25.-The action Of
the Markle mines in the anthracite
coal strike in conceding practically all
the demands of their men except that
relating to the price of powder, which
is to be arbitrated, was variously COM
mented upon by operators and whole
sale dealers here today.
Il fail to see how any one can say
that the action of the Markles is a
victory for the miners" said Secretary
Olyphant. of the Delaware and Hud-
son Canal company. THE Markles
had peculiar arrangement with their
men by which they were better able
to make terms in the event of trouble.
The Markle miners presented their
grievances direct to their employers
and not through any labor organiza-
tion. The Delaware and Hudson COM
pany has yet to hear from their en-
ployes that they have a grievance.
Their case has been presented by the
Mine Workers association. Let our
men submit their troubles to us as
the MarSle men have done to their
bosses and l am sure we will be able
to arrive at a satisfactory settlement.
Furthermore, l venture to say that all
the other mine owners will be ready
to treat with their men on the same
terms"
President Truesdale, of the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western railroad, had
no statement to make for publication
except that the switchmen of the road
had no thought of striking. and that
there was absolutely no truth in the
report that a delegation was coming
here to protest against there being
asked to haul coal mined by non-union
men.
