MONSTER MEETING OF STRIKING
 MINERS HELD E W|LKESBARRE
Greatest Labor Demonstration Ever Made in Northeastern Pennsyl-
 Vania-- a--OVation to Mitchell.

their labor as any other class of workmen in the world
 Tn this struggle do not place absolute faith in John Mitchell or any other one man. Put your faith in the organization. Work hard for it's prosperity, for the stronger 1t is, the better you are armed for the struggle in which you are now en- gagged. This strike shall not be declared orr by me It shall not be ended until convention of anthracite miners shall de- eide. Every union and every colliery will be aSked to send one or more delegates to a convention to determine for themselves. Your interests are greater than mine. shall not decide the question of your go- Ing back to work. You must vote on that yourselves. l would not pretend to de- termine your fate or that of the 500,050 who are directly affected by this struggle.
 Must stand Together
 T firmly believe that victory will be achieved by the men standing together. Do not let one of you move at all. If you stand together we will achieve a greater victory than was ever attained by labor in the anthracite coal regions. If nothing else Is achieved than the taking Of the young boys who today yelled as I passed them in the parade that Mitchell is all right out of the breakers and placing them in the schools, the future will show that Mitchell was all right. I am firmly of the belief that the mothers of the break CT boys nightly pray to the Ruler of the universe to decide in favor of the men, so that their boys can go to the schools.
 "A miner should receive for his wages as much as any man on earth, so that he himself can build a home on the present tumbling ruins of his hovel built by the companies, and can afford to allow his children to have the advantage Of college, too.
 Through the efforts of the United Mine Workers we can secure justice for all. We want to stand together, and I hope that not one man will desert the ranks of the union and that not one man will go back to the mines until the victory Is com plete."
 The national president was followed by Fred Dilcher of Ohio and Benjamin Gates executive board, and Mother Mary Jones.
 President Mitchelrs address, as far as outlining any future move on the part of the labor leaders is concerned, is disap- pointment He intimated strongly last night that he would define the position of the union today on the 10 per cent conces' sion.

Harrison Will Speak

New York; October 2.-Concerning the re- port that ex-President Harrison would make few speeches during the campaign, 1t was learned today that the national cam paign committee wrote him about month ago, asking him to take some active part in the campaign MT. Harrison replies ask ing the committee not to press him to make any speeches early in the campaign. He expected that he would overwork himself in the Venezuelan boundary dispute and needed several weeks rest. It is now said on the highest authority that General Har rison will not be asked to make any speeches until the close of the cam paign. Then he will take the stump and make several speeches at least two of which are to be delivered in this city.

MINERS DEMAND
That the Operators Recognize the
 Union

operators of the Wyoming Valley who posted notices at their collieries last night notifying their employees of 10 per cent increase in wages had no word from their men today as to whether the offer would be accepted or not. The fact that the op- orators have made what appears to be a studied effort to ignore the miners union is what aggravates the strikers most. They say it is useless to talk of a settlement un- til the presidents of the big coal compan- les make up their minds to recognize the unions.

SENATOR DAVIS IS DEAD E:.'|ll
He Passed Away After nm Illness o.
Over Two nOnthS.

ST. Paul, MINI, Nov. rs. United
! States Senator Cushman Kellogg Dav-
il, chairman Of the committee on
foreign relations of the senate, died
at his home in this city, last eve
mig at S:4S o'clock after an illness of
two months. He has suffered great
~ during his sickness, and gradually
sank away, being unconscious Tor
several hours before death, and, so
pain. tN. .s,fr
For more than a week it has been
known that tho death of Senator Da-
Wis was certain to occur within a
short time. Although the bulletins
issued by DIR. Stone from day to day
made no positive statement to this
effect. they nevertheless gave the i'm
preston that the case was Il hope
less one.
However, the announcement came
as n profound shock to the friends
and fellow townsmen of the distin-
guished statesman, who had been
hoping against hope. The senator's
devoted wife, who had been in con-
slant attendance upon his sick bed,
had never lost hope. The senator,
in his moments of lucidity, expressed
a strong determination to recover,
and within week tolu United States
District Attorney Evans, who had
been admitted to see him, that he
was positive he would soon be we'll.
The serious kidney affection which
developed on November IL had re-
fused to yield to treatment, and his
weakened frame was unable to with
stand the poisons left III his system
by these organs failing to perform
their functions. On Sunday, Novem-
Der 18, serious change tor the worse
was noted, and rom that time on it
was eviuent that he coulc. not re-
cover.
Mr.. Davis was elected United
States senator in 1887. Throughout
his first term he was chairman of
the comm Zee on pensions. AS q
member of the committee on ter
ritorics, Senator Davis led the fight
for the admission of the Dakotas to
statehood, making his first speech in
the senate on that subject. At the
beginning of his second term Senator
Davis was place. on the committee
on foreign relations and when Sen
ator Sherman was transferred to the
cabinet of President Mckinley, Sen
ator Davis was placed at the head
of that important committee. In
1s95-'96 many friends of the senator
pressed his name for the. presidential
nomination, but before the state con-
vention to name delegates met, he
. withdrew and Mckinley delegates
were sent from Minnesota. During
the past four years Senator Davis
position as chairman of the foreign
relations committee Of the senate
and later as one of the Paris peace
commissioners have kept him promi-
nently before the public of all ma
tons. He was reelected without OPP
position in 1889 for his third term.

The open range plan of winterings
stock has given way to better care
and more prepared feed In the buff
falo grass districts, where the feed
cures in the ground during the fall
months, the winter care of cattle and
horses IS an easy problem to solve,
as little or no prepared feed is re-
quired in moderate weather and when
the grass is not covered with snow.
The large area of western Nebras-

antly supplied with the sand variety

of wintering animals is very light in
comparison with the prepared feed
districts. Nebraska has a good crop
of all kinds of rough feed for winter
ing cattle, and the farmers in the,
grain growing districts, as well as ia
the western grazing districts, have
been stocking up with the cheap
stock cattle coming into the markets
from the less favored localities.

CHAMPION FOR PAUL KRUGER.
President Loubet OF Franco Yields ia
Public Sentiment.

President LOubet OF Franco Yields to
Public Sentiment.
Paris, Nov. 25.-President Kruger's
reception in Paris was another grand
ovation, such as he had witnessed at
every point along the road from Mar
settles. AS many people as could be
crowded into the space about the de-
pot welcomed him at that point, and
he made brief address thanking
France for her evidence of sympa-
thy. The route to the motel was a
continuous ovation. At O'clock, ac-
companied by a strong detachment
of courassers, he visited the Elysee,
where he was received by
President Loubet. At 1880 Presi-
dent Loubet returned the call at the
Hotel Scribe.
Paris, Nov. 27.-In direct opposition
to his cabinet President Loubet has
espoused Kruger's cause ty an Off
cial reception to the latter at the
Elysee, and by a prompt return of
the visit he mas set an example to
Europe. While secrecy is maintained
concerning what passed between the
two presidents, it is ascertained that
Kruger appealed to Loubet in strong
terms in favor of Intervention, urg-
ing the justice and right of his cause.
Loubet expressed deep sympathy and
intimatel that he would use his influ-
ence to aid Kruger's cause.
Unlike the president, who is carried
away by public sentiment, Premier
Waldeck- Rousseau scorns public opin-
ion and is unmoved by sentiment.
The scene in the cabinet meeting
between Loubct and his premier will
be memorable. With only three
members Of his cabinet on his side
Loubet carried the day on the ques-
ton of receiving Kruger as chief
of state. There is intense excitement
in Paris.
The Conservative Temps declares
that Loubet's attitude changes the
character of Kruger's visit and may
effectively secure intervention by ar
bitration, and adds: "The skepticism
and egotism of the government may
be forced aside by the current of pop
ular opinion, which, more generous
than the cabinets of Europe, may at
least obtain the same ameliorationS
in the terms of peace as those of NJ.
de Theirs, which secured a modifica-
ton of the German demands. Kru-
ger grows hourly more determined
in his mission. His definite plans
are bold and contemplate after his
arrival at The Hague the address of
note to the powers asking inter-
vention toward means of arbitration
based on article of the peace con-
ference"
