STRIKE IS NOT YET SETTLED.
No Offer of Compromise Has
Been Announced.
MITCHELL SURE OF VICTORY
A Big Parade Tuesday in Wilkesbarre, Pa.
Ten Thousand Men and Boys Marched
Through the Streets-The Union Claims
1t Has Come to Stay.

The strike is drawing rapidly to a
close" said President Mitchell TO 20
000 striking miners at Wilkesbarre
Tuesday afternoon, and the 5000
cheered wildly. Then came the sur
prise OF the day, which had been eX-
pected 10 mark the turning point in
the strike. President Mitchell brought
no news of a compromise. He made no
statement TO show that the coal COM
panies would grant more than Their
formal notices indicated. He had no
tidingS from the independent opera
| tors, who at present hold the key to
the situation.
Ten thousand miners, men and boys,
paraded through the streets OF Wilkes
barre Tuesday. Another 10000 STOOD
on the sidewalks and cheered the
marchers, while probably 10000 gath
cred at the West Side Park, and
| listened to the speeches of Mitchell,
DIlcher, Purcell, and their other lead
ers. These leaders predicted great re-
! suits from this show of numbers, for
the 10000, to a man, promised not 10

from outlying districts never found

| precision of soldiers, for a large pOr-
ton of the miners here are foreigners
who have served in European armies.
Notices on the Banners.
There were numerous banners In
the column, all voicing steadfast devo-
ton to Mitchell and the miners cause
Among the most noticeable were
these:
I'VE want our dinner pals filled
with substantial food, not coal baron S

the union.
Our union must be recognized"
I'VE will no longer be slaves"
"2 ,240 pounds for ton.
I'VE want two weeks pay"
The breaker boys carried banners
which read:
I'VE need schooling, but must work.
VIII Ignore Operators Offer.
The operators are in no hurry and
will wait the pleasure of the strikers
The miners. however, have abou,
made up their minds that they will
not consider the offer. The increase
they say, is a mere trifle and not
worthy of consideration.
The fact that the operators have
made what appears to be studied
effort to ignore the miners union is
what aggravates the strikers most
They say it is useless to talk of 6
settlement unless the presidents o.
the big coal companies make up theil
minds to recognize the union. One o.
the officers of the United Mine Work
ers' council OF this district said today:
Il don't see how AZ agreement CAL
be reached so cong as the union is lef;
out of the negotiations. The operator:
might as well understand now as later
on that the union has come to stay
and that il will insist on its demand;
being granted"
There is strong feeling at Scran-
ton that the strike of the miners 1:

NOT FOR DISCIPLINE.
President thinner on Scope of Ball
Players Association.

PITTSBURG, Aug. 19.-The Dispatch
tomorrow will print the following:
President Charles A thinner, of the
Ball Players Protective association, when
seen last night, said 1t was not in the
jurisdiction Of the association to take
action upon the recent trouble at st.
Louis, In which Mccain threw the ball
at Wolverton, striking him in the head.
The chief said the object of the associa-
ton is to guard the interests of the play
ers in their business relations with the
clubs, and not to have any personal su-
pervision of the players in regard to their
actions toward one another on the ball
field. He thinks the matter will be
brought up by the Philadelphia players
at the next meeting of the association to
be held in New York, Sept. ].
The president declared that the asser-
ton that the Players association would
demand the abolition of the reserve rule
was ridiculous, as 1t was fully recognized
that the club owners needed this pro-
lection for their money invested in the
business. The chief objects Of the asso-
citation, he says, are to do away with syn
dictate ball, the farming out Of players,
and to elevate the standard of the ma
tional game.
Mr. thinner said 1t was most probable
that some action would be taken by the
players in relation to the umpire ques-
ton, as they realized that the double
system would prevent much of the trouble
over close decisions.

But Further Than That President
Mckinley Is Undecided.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-Ncw that the
primary object for which the allied ar
mics marched upon Pekin, viz, the res
cue of the besieged legationers, has been
accomplished, the drift of discussion in
official and diplomatic circles reverts to
the next step to be taken.
I'VE are on the threshold Of an en-
drely new condition of affairs; a new
aspect confronts u.s." said we'll inform
ed official of the government tonight
The efforts of the several governments
during the past two weeks have been
devoted to the rescue of the legationers
in Pekin. Now that that has been ac-
compished the course of the governments
whose interests have been affected Is at
the present time one largely of coniec-
ture"
The common belief here Is that the next
move will be an agreement for an armI-
stice This may be undertaken by the
commanders of the Chinese army ard
those of the allies on the spot where the
fighting, according TO the latest reports
from PeI<in, appears still to be in prog
ress. This accomplished, the question
of withdrawal of the general armies,
the payment of indemnities and many
other problems may be left to committee
duly appointed to adjudicate them.
Ii Hung Chang has already been APP
pointed plenipotentiary by his govern
Oh
in this capacity he made an Intellectual
attempt to stop the progress of the allies
in their march on Pekin.
Whether Earl Lii will be continued in
that capacity by the imperial government
is not known here, but such seems alto
gether probable, as, with his well known
ability, and his acquaintance with the
world, he would be able to make possibly
better terms than any other Chinaman.
There are eleven nations" pointed out
the same official, who have suffered as
result of the Chinese disturbances All

have resulted from the Boxer outbreaks
the murder of missionaries and the de-
struction of legation property. Spain Is
one of these, and although che has not
participated in the relief expedition, she
has suffered alike with the others, and
will expect to be Unidentified for her loss
es 1t can be stated authoritatively that
up to this time there have been no ex-
changes between the United States and
the other powers regarding the steps TO
be taken in the future to bring China to
terms for the losses that have been incur
red. The sole interest of the United
States up to this time has been the res
cue of the legationers which is now an
accomplished fact.
'.Informal discussion has taken place
between the president and his cabinet as
to what this government will do to Sc
cure reparation for losses, but the con-
illusions reached are purely tentative and
in no sense definite"
