feated United States MarshaIs.
Mattewan, w. Va, June 26.-The
day passed off quietly in the coal
fields. Four collieries put to work a
small force of non-union men. An
outbreak was feared but the strikers
seemed content with having forced the
federal marshals to- leave the fields.
Now that they are gone it is expected
that the strikers will renew their riots
with the non-union miners. A clash is
hourly dreaded and riots will follow
when the day for enforcing the writs
of ejectment shall h ave passed. United
States marshals are in Charleston
holding a consultation with Governor
White. Since the sheriff has not eff
cially summoned the military it is
thought they are there for the purpose
of pleading in their own behalf.
Unless White grants the request
federal troops may be ordered out.

knows his business, and how to attend
to it,"

had sounded the keynote and would
continue to do so in the campaign

insisted that the coming contest in
Ohio is national in character. He re.
viewed the administrations of Presi-

question and insisted that the country
demands a continuance of confidence
IN the government in order to have
continued prosperity. This is no time,
he declared, for financial, Industrial
or other disturbances.
Nominations were then made as
above.
The platform reaffirms the Philadel-
phia platform; specifically endorses
the gold Standard; demands the
speedy construction of the isthmian

dennis monopolies to control prices

the governments insular policy; en-
dorses the administrations of Presi-
dent Mckinley and Governor Nash;

! Are Still Missing and 1t Is Feared
They Are Drowned.
.Bluefeld;; WA, June 26.-The
West Virginia flood situation has not
many new developments, but it. is
automatically stated that the loss Of
life has been greatly overestimated,
although the loss of property can
hardly be estimated. The most con-
sentative estimate obtainable places
the loss of life At about so, a greater
part of whom are colored miners and
their families. A great many mere
who are missing are supposed to have
been swept away. There are great
piles of debris and it will take many
days to find all the bodies. The Nor
folk and Western railroad will lose at
conservative estimate 100000, not
taking into consideration the delay to
traffic, etc. Their double track is
practically washed away for Assistance
If six miles and at least $500 men are
at work night and day repairing road
bed and removing drift. The Cumber-
land Valley electric light car has ar
rived and will be used to prosecute
the work at night. It will be four
days before any traffic can be resumed.
The loss to the coal operators will
reach about 100000, outside of the
delay at the mines in loading, etc.
The property lost by private parties
is very heavy and cannot be estimated
at this time. It is thought it will
reach the 100000 mark General
Boggs and Colonel Hudson of Coy
ernor Whites staff arrived during the.
day to hold conference with the gen
eral superintendent Of the Norfolk and
Western railroad to ascertain what
assistance is needed from the state
authorities. The wires are deluged
with press work and hundreds of mes
sages are received hourly from anx-
ious friends in all parts of the United
States, inquiring about relatives and
friends: Until traffic is resumed and
all communications opened, it will be
impossible to estimate with any de-
gree of certainty either the loss Of
life or property.

Butte Pool Rooms Closed

Butte, Mon, lyme: 26.-All the pool
rooms in Butte closed down during the
day, Mayor ~Davey having ordered
their licenses revoked. The pool
rooms have been paying the city $3.50
each per month. They claim they
were not called upon to do so and
that further there is no prohibition
against their business in the anti
gambling law. The mayor takes the
ground that there: is no law permit
ting pool rooms.

INSPIRES DisQUlETUDE.

Casualty Lists Show Rather Severe
Fighting in South Africa.
London, June 26-The casualty lists
made public by the war office continue
to show rather severe fighting in vari-
Gus parts Of South Africa that is not
reported in the ordinary dispatches.
This is noticeably SO with regard to
the Zeerust position in Cape Colony.
1t also inspires disquietude, which is
added to by the repeated looting of
Jamestown, in spite of the proximity
of a strong British force at Aliwal
North.
1t appears that, including the Boer
prisoners and those in the concentra-
ton camps, the cost of supporting
some $4,000 Beers is today falling
upon the British taxpayers.
