The hotel men of Washington. with but

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 22.-The Amer
lean staff correspondent at Darlington, KY,
wiring tonight, says: Tomorrow morn
ing at daylight Judge Halls order to the
striking miners to disband their camp and
disperse becomes operative. Tonight there
are fully $50 men in the camp, all heavily
armed and declaring they will not abandon
their quarters Officials aver they do not
anticipate violence. They believe the men
will simply say, Here we are; what are
you going to do with us?'
Judge Hall has prepared his order to
Adjutant General Murray and Sheriff
Hawking, directing them to proceed against
the camp if not removed or abandoned,
and all arrangements were perfected to-
night to follow the instructions Judge
Hall declares the miners must go, and says
all now hinges on their action.
Late this afternoon President Woods.
of the United Mine Workers, and At
torney Yost arrived at the camp from
Central City and conferences were held
tonight. The number of men in camp
is constantly increasing, and another big
tent has been raised. "A heavy rain fell
this afternoon, and it became necessary to
ditch the tents, which resulted in a wild
rumor that the miners were throwing UP
breastworkS."

manager of the Shamokin Coal and Coke
Company, of Maybury, w. Va. composing
a parry of eight, entered the west main of
the Southwest Virginia Improvement Com
pany's colIieries to-day for the purpose of
examining the true situation In regard to
the recent explosion and fire in the Baby
mine, and up to this hour, II o'clock mid
night, have not been heard from.
1t was supposed that the Baby mine
proper had been cut off from the west mine
for the purpose of operating the West
mine. The large fan in the west mine had
been started at an early hour this morning
and at clock to-day 1t was thought that
all gases originating from the fire in the
Baby mine had been forced from the main
portion and 1t was considered safe to enter
At p. m. a party consisting of experienced
miners, led by Assistant Superintendent
King entered the mine to rescue the lost
party of eight, but at Gas they returned,
having encountered such quantities Of
black damp as to make 1t impossible to en-
ter any distance into the mine. Assistant
superintendent King was completely over
come by the gas and is now in a critical
condition.
A consultation is now being held in the
company's office at Pocahontas of the diff
ferent mining experts from the Flat Top
field, these experts having been rushed TO
Pocahontas by a special train late this
afternoon. All efforts are being made to
recover the bodies Of the inspecting party,
but no hopes are entertained that any of
them will be recovered alive. The secre-
tary and treasurer of the Southwestern
Virginia Improvement Company, c. s.
Thorne, Of Philadelphia, is directly in
charge of all movements at the mines.
The fire that originally started in the
Baby mine last Thursday morning. and
which was supposed TO be under control, is
now burning furiously. All the members
of the lost party prominent in the coal
field, and the excitement now prevailing at
Pocahontas is intense. business having
practically suspended. All the members of
the party are married some having large
families.

PLOT TO SEIZE DAWSON
FURTHER DETAILS OF THE ALLEGED
KLONDIKE CONSPIRACY.
Order of the Midnight sun Evidently
Was Composed of Men Who In
tended to Loot the Country.

SEATTLE, Wash, Nov. 22.-The Times
prints the following from Victoria, B. c.:
There was an organized conspiracy to
seize Dawson, secure the barracks of the
Northwest mounted police, with their arms
and ammunition, loot the banks and pillage
the property of the rich northern gold field.
These facts are confirmed. James Seeley,
formerly of this city, who is now head of
the secret service of the Northwest mount
ed police, is in this city, and says that not
only was there a conspiracy to overthrow
Canadian rule in the Yukon and loot
Dawson, but the scheme hatched by
BILE one, and had its existence not
been discovered by the secret service
of the Yukon and nipped in the
bud the conspirators could have accom-
pl1Shed their purpose, and, after taking
Dawson, could have held that place and the
Yukon. The conspiracy was born at DaW-
son and had branch at Skagway, but no
existence In any other point to the south
OF Skagway, although efforts were made
to secure the assistance of pro-Boer SYM
pathizers In Seattle and other points in
the United States. 1t was at Dawson that
the plot was made, last summer. Several
American Fenians who had drifted to Daw-
son got together and formed an organiza-
ton which was called the Order of the
Midnight Sun. number of others We're
gathered in, and the order grew until there
were several hundred adherents in Septem-

istence"

The MONROE DOCTRINE
LONDON SPECTATOR THINKS 1T
SHOULD BE PLAINLY DEFINED.
Saturday Review Sneers at Hays
"UnctuOus AphOrisms" and ''PIati-
tudes of Universal Amity."

LONDON, Nov. 22.-The most important
position in to-morrow's edition of the Spec
tator will be occupied by a discussion OF a
proposal that Great Britain should give its
formal adherence to the Monroe doctrine.
The Spectator will say:
IF America will define the Monroe doc
trine why should we not pledge ourselves
not to infringe upon it? When had
acknowledged this doctrine America might
propose it TO the rest of the powers for
Endorsement. If she did the powers could
hardly refuse. If they adhered their ad-
herence would be of great use, not to Amer
lea, but to the cause of peace, for ii would
eliminate a great many of the notable
causes of war. II the Monroe doctrine be-
came part OF the public law of the civil
lied world the risk of a war breaking out
with regard to European interference in
Brazil or Spanish America, now always a
possibility, would then pass away. Posi-
bly, no other power but Great Britain would
at first be willing TO recognize the Monroe
doctrine as binding. Even so, it would be
worth our while to pledge ourselves TO re-
spect it, for we never mean TO attack that
doctrine, and sooner or later our example
will probably be followed by other powers" Z"
treaty, and in another article on Secretary
Hays foreign policy the paper will say:
mo country in the world can show two
greater or worthier statesmen than Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Secretary Hay"
The Saturday Review. sneering at Mr.
Hays "unctuous aphorisms and ''plati-
tudes of universal amity," will bestow a
page on Lord Lansdowne's retreat and
say: I'VE are putting the future canal un-
reServedly into the hands of the United
States for the future day which will de-
velop in a startling manner the imperial
istic extravagances of to-day, witho-It con-
Sulting in the smallest degree the interests
of the rest of the world, which are inti-
mately bound up with our own in this mat
ter"
The Saturday Review will affirm that
Lord Lansdowne has "cynically retreated
from the position as trustee for the civil
lied world, which we assumed even under
the Hay-Pauncefote convention. and
thrown the whole subject of contention into
the hands of unscrupulous opponents to
deal with as they think fit
