This same peace conference acquiesced

The Monroe doctrine should be the car

IDLF MINES ARE
BEING FLOODED

pittston, July 17.--Selfous results are
beginning to follow the strike of the sta
tionary firemen, which is more effective
today. Only four collieries in the Pitts
ton district are working today. All Of
the others, some thirty in number. are
idle The companies find it difficult to
get men to take the places of the strik
rrs, even in the most urgent cases. An
attempt was made to compel the engi
ncers to take the places of the strikers,
but this has failed. Dozens Of engineers
who refused to do firemen's work have
been discharged. and meeting of the
Engineers Union has been called to con-
slider this phase of the situation. II is
likely that the engineers will also go out
in aid Of the firemcn. At many of tn"
collieries the novel spectacle was wit
messed of superintendent and clerks,
clad in white shirts. attempting to fire
hoilrrs and keep up steam for the fans
and pumps. This is but partially sue
ccSsful.
Pumps and fans are already beginning
to slack off, with the result that mine
workings are filling with water and gas.
This will mean tremendous loss.
Should al pumps remain idle for a
week. the flood Of water will be 50 great
AS to n"cesstate months of pumping be-
fore the mines can resume operations.

WATCHING
GAMBLERS,

Freehold, N. j., July 1.-THE
Monmouth County Grand Jury will
meet here in extra session tomorrow
to see II the mandates of Justice J.
Franklin Fort in regard to the clos.
ing Of the Long Branch club house
this summer have been obeyed. I'm
til this year the gamblers really ruled
Monmouth County, but, since the
charge of Justice Fort to the May
Grand Jury in which he declared the
clubs must 60 and that he would call
the Grand Jury back in extra session
in July to see that the law was not
violated together with Governor
Voorhees, famous uttcrance that the
clubs would be closed this summer if
he had to call out the State militia
to keep them Shut, have changed the
aspect Of affairs wonderfully in his
toric Monmouth.
The beautiful club houses on Ocean
avenue, which in past years were
scenes of the liveliest activity at this
season, are now ostenslbly closed and
deserted. Windows and doors are
closed, and in some cases unsightly
boards are nailed across them. Once
pretty lawns are now grown up in
tall grass like that in hay field.
But Justice Fort is obdurate and says
the clubs must 60.
No one believes that the proprie-
tors will be indicted when the Grand
Jury meets, for the simple reason
that the clubs have not been open
and that no violations of the law
have taken place.

STRIKES ENORMOUS COST.
Three Companies Involved are Los
ing $210, 900, and the Workmen
are Out $3.50, 600 Daily.

pittsburg, July 17.--Accorlng to fig

the steel strike is daily costing the three
companies involved 100000, and the
workmen $l5s,0O0 1t is estimated that
Of tin plate day, the American Tin
Plate Company is daily losing over
10000. while the loss to the canning
companies, unable to secure their ma
trrial. is enormous.
PracticalT! no stocks have been carried
and the consumption has kept pace with
the production for some time past.
About 700 tons of the 1000 tons daily
production of the American Sheet Steel
Company is being lost. and this repre-
srnts a loss each day to the combine Of
at least $4,000.
The loss to the gas stove manufacture
ers is also great as the mills are closed
which make speciality Of stove iron.
This is the heavy season for making
stoves. About 1000 or $500 tons Of steel
hoops, bands, and cotton ties are being
lost daily by the American Steel Hoop
Company by reason of the strike. and
this represents daily Toss in money of
$4,000. 1t is estimated that the men are
losing in wages sl5O.OOO. The tin work
crS will lose $4,000 daily in addition.
In addition to all of these losses the
many and varied industries crippled now
and in prospect represent losses to the
mon of large sums that cannot he COM

said to have n fund of more than 100000
with which to keep the strike going. and

MURDERER AS A
LIFE SAVER.

Trenton, N. j., July l7.--Samuel
Shinn, who was convicted Of having
murdered Thomas F. Applegate. dis
tinguished himself to-day by prevent
ing two prisoners in the county Jail
from committing suicide. One of
the men is Joseph BAHIA. and last
Tuesday he attempted to kill Shinn
with a chair, but was prevented by
the turnkey.
This afternoon Shinn's attention
was attracted by a noise in Baha's
cell, and looking in he saw the man
hanging by the neck by his suspenders
from a pipe in the ceiling. Shinn
managed to burst open the door and
break the suspenders in time to save
Baha's life.
A little while afterward Shinn no.
ticed William Goodwin, another pris-
oner, scraping piece OF tin on the
stone floor OF his cell. When Good
win made q slash at his throat Shipn
oyerpowered him and took away the
weapon.
BAHIA and Goodwin are both crazy.
Goodwin since last Monday has made
four attempts to kill himself. First
he tried to hang himself with rope
made of the lining Of his coat, then
undertook to strangle himself with
piece OF wire. After this he was
shackled and chained to the wall of a
cell. He managed to turn on the gas
with his teeth and held his mouth
over the jet. He was discovered in
time to save him. Tonight Good
win climbed to the top Of his cell on
the bars Of the door and dove head.
first to the floor, but his head was
harder than the stones and he was
only stunned by the fall.

PRESIDENT SHAFFER
WAS ONCE A MINISTER
From Rolling Mill to University and
Pulpit. Thence Back to
the Mill.

Theodore j.. Shaffer, the directing head
Of the steel strike, was graduated from
rolling mill into the Western Univcr-
sity of Pennsylvania, and in time into
the ministry, and by stages back into Il
rolling mill again. whence he was called
10 become president of the Amalgaplatcd
Association. President Shafcr is one of
those unfortunately brilliant men whose
physical resources are inadequate to
maintain the drafts made upon it by his
active and versatile mentality.
After aboring day and night as boy
and youth in the rolling mills to acquire
an education. he was met with the pro-
feSsional Judgment of one physician after
another that he must lay aside intcllcc-
tual labor and return to physical tasks
if he hoped to preserve his health. Over
activity was his fault. He reluctantly
followed the advice of his physicians
and left the pulpit to return to the mills
of the Leechhurg Sheet Company.
Between fifty and ffty-fve years Of
age. tall. slender and graceful, Theodore
Shafi"r has been compelled to forego in
tellectual labor, except that thrust upon
him as president Of the Amalgamatrl
Association. As boy he used the hous-
ings of the rolls in the mills where he
worked for his blackboard. There he
gained his rudimentary education. He
took up alone the study of Latin and
Greek, Sancrift. the modern languages,
literature, and the usual preparatory
branches.
In the strength of the thirties h. be-
came a Methodist Episcopal minister Mt
Nonnellsvillc. Pa. and later was in
charge Of the Methodist Episcopal
Church at Brownsville. Pa. the birth
place of James G. Blaine. For six
years he labored with might and main.
driven by his unfortunate Temperament.
and not until at the very verge of mental
disaster did he relnquish his charge and
go back to the mill. He read nothing:
he entered into no discussions requiring
effort. all to preserve his mind. Even
now his physicians say that nothing save
physical labor will prolong his life and
maintain his intellect He left the min.
istry at Monongahela City. Pa. in 1899,
returning to the I.eechburg sheet mill.
He succeeded NJ. NJ. Garland az presi.
dent of the Amalgamatcd Association in
1895.

GLASS WORKERS APPLICATION
Laws Similar to Those in Pennsyl-
vania are Urged.

Milwaukee, Wis, July 16.-Thcrc is
considerable doubt as to whether the
prescription bottle blowers will be atil-
lated with the glass bottle people, as the
vote of only 80 to 26 by them IN favor OF
Withdrawing and joining the green glass
men will be a barrier hard to break
down. President Hayes today made an
address advocating junk laws in each
State similar to the one in Pennsylvania.
The convention adopted II long resolution
condemning arbitrary us,lrpatiOn of
power by the courts" in 'unwarrantcl
abuse of the extraordinary writ of in
junction in the disputes between EN-
ployer and employe which can only re.
suit in the degradation of all that is
best in American citizenship"
Another resolution was adopted con-
demniug the factory inspectors of New
Jersey for failure to enforce the law in
the George Jonas plant at Minotola. and
asking his displacement if he fails to
do so soon.

ENGINEERS STRIKE IN MEXICO
Mexico International Road Tied Up

Monterey Mex, July 16.-Thc strike
Of the engineers and fircmcn employed
on the Mexican International Railroad
has completely tied up that system. II
is reported that the American engineers
employed on the Mexican National and
the Monterey and Mexican Gulf roads
will also strike for an increase Of wages,
and that they will demand revision of
the rules and regulations under which
they are now working.
Practically all Of the locomotive cnsi-
ncrrs in Mexico are Americans, and If
the strike spreads to other roads il will
he difficult to get men to fill the places
Of the strikers.
