Philadelphia, Pa. Sept 2s.-ThiS was
the tenth day of the miners strike and
there is no indication of surrender or
concession on either side. In fact, no
overtures looking to a settlement of the
differences have been made by either
the strike leaders or the operators.
Various propositions Of a settlement
by arbitration have been put forward
by persons not directly connected with
the mining business, but thus far prac-
tically no progress has been made in
this direction.
A most noteworthy feature of the
strike is the remarkably good behavior
of the strikers up to this time. especi-
ally when it is considered that the
claim is made that more than 10000
mine workers are idle in the anthracite
region
There have. of course. been a few
disturbances. but none of a character

one at Shenandoah on Friday last.

GOulds, Senator's Depew and

Albany. N Y. Sept 26.-Superinten-
dent OF Insurance Hendricks has MADE
public the following statement concern
ing the Traders Fire Insurance com
pany of New York:
Under date of Aug. 8, 1900, the su-
perintendent referred to a preliminary
report on this company TO the attorney
general, and that official, on the
strength of such report, made appIica-
ton to the courts for the appointment
of receiver. Harry A. Hamburg of
New York was appointed to act in that
capacity. At the time of referring the
preliminary report above mentioned the
attorney general was advised by the
superintendent of insurance that the
department would make a further ex-
primarily for the purpose of verifying
the correctness of its annual statement
for the year ending Dec 81, 1899.
Sworn Statement Declared False.
such an examination was completed
under date of Sept. 81, from which is
shown the following discrepancy be
tween the company's statement and
the findings OF the department exam

president. and Theodore SutrO secre-
tary, was grossly false in every essen
t1al particular. The cash returned as
being in bank at the close of Deem
Der, the statement gives at 1879. This
sum was in excess of the true balance
in the bank. The exact amount of the
excess could not be stated definitely
as a close verification of this item from
the company'S books was rendered al
most impossible. owing to the slovenlv
manner in which the same was kept.
The amount due the company on ac-
count OF gross premiums in course Of
collection on policies issued within
three months of Dec. 81, was given in
the company's annual statement. at
$l23, 1876 The true amount of this item
is shown TO be $S4. S3S.
In reporting its liabilities, the com
pany gave as being the amount of the
outstanding losses Dec. 81, SASH, on
account of net losses and claims I'M
paid The net losses then outstanding
were $S3, 340. Unearned premium fund
was reported to be SIS, 122 on Dec. 81
II is found that this item was S199. 067
The sum stated as due for reinsurance
1910, is erroneous. The amount &C
tually due was 5000.

Howard Breaks Down.

At the jail Howard for the first time
betrayed emotion. He called for a pen
and paper and wrote a long letter to
his wife, during which tears courSed
down his cheeks. He was Joined later
by his attorneys, who spent a good
part of the day in conference with
him.
w. H. CultOn, who is under indict-
ment as an accessory to the GoebeI
murder, and who gave damaging evil
dence against both Howard and Caleb
Powers. was released on $4,000 bail
this afternoon and his case continued
until the January term.
Jim Howard, as he is commonly
known in the mountains. is a strikingly
handsome man. A years of age, and
would oe one of the last to be pointed
out by a stranger as the man on trial.
He had the record, however, of being
the leader Of the Howard White fac
ton in the Baker, Howard feud in Clay
county, in which numerous lives We're
taken. He had killed George Baker
and was suspected of the assassination
of Tom Baker, who was killed after
the same fashion as Goebel, and How
ards friends believe that these fs..fs
have much to do with the making of
the verdict sentencing him to the gall

Cause Of the Verdict.

Frankfort, KY, Sept. 26.-The jury in
the case of James Howard, on trial for
alleged completely in the Goebel as
sassination, this morning rendered a
verdict Of guilty with the penalty fixed
at death. The jury retired at $40 and
returned with its verdict at 9:43
The court room was crowded with
spectators almost trembling with sup
pressed excitement. Foreman Crutcher
of the jury passed the written verdict
up to the clerk, and it was read by
Deputy Clerk Elliott
Howard did not display the least
anxiety and apparently was uncon-
cerned.
Verdict Surprise.
The verdict was a surprise as the
general public were led to believe that
the jury was divided on the question
of guilt or innocence of the defendant
One of the jurors stated to the Asso-
ciated Press that a number of ballots
were taken, but the first ballot result
ed in a unanimous vote in favor of a
verdict of guilty. After that the bal
lots yesterday were as to the degree
of punishment. Ten members voted for
the death penalty, while two voted for
life Imprisonment. The first ballot to
day resulted in a verdict, the two
jurors who had voted for life imprison-
ment giving in to the majority and
voting for the death penalty.
After the verdict had been rendered
Howard was remanded to Jail, where
he was followed by his bosom friend
John g. White. who seemed almost
paralyzed by the verdict. Howard
checks also blanched as he stood up
to accompany the jailer back to his
cell.

SUDELL ANSWERS HANDY
He Says His Aoaon Was Taken Be
cause OF Democratic Corruption


Replying to L. Irving Handy's letter.
Harold Sudell OF the Single Takers saws
that he fails TO see how the Single Takers
are endorsing Addicks or dealing with
him when they have put a majority of
Democratic legislative candidates upon
their ticket lie also says that the politi-
cal conditions which made AddicSs possi-
Die m Delaware are the result Of long
line Of Democratic corruption.
Mr.. Handy in reply to this told Sudell
shat he and other Single Tax committee
men,mentioning Frank Stephens. OF Phil
adelphia, also have gone into the coat
tail pockets of Mr.. Addiczs and can only
put their small heads far enough out to
shout Democratic corruption" He de-
clares that in Sussex county the Single
Takers have endorsed all Of the Union
Republican candidates for the Legislature
except one. and in Kent county have en-
dorsed four Union Republicans and have
nominated men in Democratic districts IA
hope OF turning those districts over r.
the Union Republicans.
Mr.. Handy in conclusion says that the
excuse Of Democratic corruption is one
given by all employees Of Mr.. Addicks,
that the Single Takers as a body are pa
uiouc citizens and viii not support the
"sand-bag ticket" which Sudell anG
others have put up.
