PORT LIMON BURNED.
A CITY of Costa Rica suffers Loss
Of over S2.OOO,OOO from
Flames.

Panama, Colombia, Oct. 16. Dis
patches from Costa Rica tell Of the al
most total destruction by fire of Port
Limon, the principal port of the re-
public. The business section of the
city was entirely wiped out. The fire
started Saturday night and very soon
got beyond control. Building after
building and block after block were
swept by the flames and in a short time
more than $4,000, 900 worth of property
was burned up. Among the heaviest
sufferers were the Port Limon bank,
Limos Bros, the United Fruit company
and several hotels. Chinese merchants
were also heavy losers. Port Limon was
in fiourishing condition and the com.
mission interests Of the city have been

Empress Downger Secures Execution
of Loyal Adberent of the
Emperor.

Washington. oct. discrimination
has been received here Of the execu-
ton on July 20 of Chang Yen Hoon,
The former Chinese minister 10 the
United States. Chang was loyal adj
herent of the emperor and warm
supporter of the latter's reform move
mcnts When the empress dowager
supplanted the emperor two years
ago he was banished TO Nebradoo. but
though the intervention of the Amer
lean and British ministers, his pun
ishment was commuted 10 Danish
ment in the distant province of HASH
garia. II now appears that the EN-
press dowager, taking advantage of
the late reign of terror at Picking and
knowing Chang's influence with the
emperor, ordered his execution by
decapitation. Chang was considered
by those familiar with Chinese affairs
as one of the ablest men in China. He
had been decorated by the queen of
Great Britain and by the emperor of
Russia and Germany. He was pre-
eminently the most liberal and en-
lightened of Chinese statesmen and
had his life been spared till the occu-
patton of Picking by the allies, he
doubtless would have been recalled
and have taken an active part in the
pending negotiations and future gov
eminent of China.

MitchelI's Views.

Mr.. Mitchell, in an interview on the
outcome of the convention, said:
1.-The action OF the delegates in convention
in accepting an advance OF ten per cent.
providing they receive assurances the ad-
vance will continue in force until April l
next year. demonstrates that the miners
are considerate OF the public interest In
volved and are disposed to be conciliatory,
and yet the mine owners refuse to Join
hands with the miners in bringing the strike
TO a close The responsibility for the suf-
fering that will be entailed on the poor In
the large eastern cities will rest entirely
with the operators The operators have
now an opportunity 70 prove that the prop
osition offered by them was made in good
faith. II they are willing TO pay ten per
cent. advance they certainly ought 70 con-
tinue TO pay for six months. The mine
workers will all remain on strike until
they are officially notified by the officers
OF the union that the strike is declared a
an end There will be no exception 10 this
rule | cannot understand any good rea
son why the operators should not accept
the conditions named in the miners reso-
lutions. /. of course. hope that there Will
be a speedy termination of this contest.
and I believe that in the future the oper-
ators will be disposed to treat with more
consideration their employees than they
have in the past. / am entirely satisfied
with the action taken by the miners. They
did not decide the question with view of

for speedy settlement of strike.

Scranton, Pa, Oct. 15.-Prospects
for a settlement of the anthracite coal
miners strike are apparently as far
off as ever. This in spite of the fact
that the miners convention on Satur-
day, after two days of deliberation,
decided 10 accept the advance of ten
per cent. offered by the operators.
Coupled with this acceptance, how
ever, were certain counter PROPOSE
tons which it is almost certain the
operators will refuse to accept and
which render nugatory all the efforts
so far made toward an agreement.
The proposition OF the miners is that
they will accept the increase in wages
provided the operators will agree TO
continue the payment of the advance
until next April and Will abolish the
sliding scale. If the operators CON
slider the proposition unacceptable the
miners are willing 10 arbtrate the
questions at issue. They also decided
TO continue the strike until the OPP
orators agree TO the conventions
proposition.

vass of the operators of the Wyoming

any more concessions than those out
lined in the original offer, namely, ten
per cent. increase without any con-
ditions. The individual operators espe-
cially are opposed to tying themselves
up 10 any agreement One operator
said the only way the strike can be
settled is for the strikers TO accept
the ten per cent. without any provi-
sions. Despite the views of the op-
orators, the impression here is that
the strike will be ended this week.
