KENTUCKY RIOTERS
MATTERS STILL UNSETTLED AT
THE MINES.
MORE BL00DSHED EXPECTED.
AT LEAST 1000 SHOTS FIRED IN
LAST SUNDAYS BATTLE.

Troops VIII BE Needed-A Union
Negro Killed and Another Mortal

Negroes Wounded-CoaI COmpn-
ters to Get Protection of United
States Courts.
Madisonville. Ky, Nov. 1S.-The man
who was killed in the battle at Prov
idence Sunday morning, Garrett Civ
ers, was a negro who lived here. Bud
Couch, mortally wounded, is also ne
gro, and both were union men in the
attacking party. Three of the wounded
were negro non-union men, who were
guarding the mine. There is a report
to-day that two wounded men were
taken to Morgantown and one to Sa-
bree, and that they are all dead, hav-
ing been shot while attacking the
mines.
This report lacks verification, though
it is believed that the men who made
the attack suffered heavily from the
fight.
In the battle of yesterday morning
at least 1000 shots were fired while in
the battle of week ago, half that
number were fired. Early this morning
a portion of the Madisonville company
and some of the Hopkinsville company
went to Providence, under the com

deplorable state of affairs exists not
only at Providence, but all over Hop
kins county, and at Empire in Chris

County Judge Hall and Sheriff SUIT
ton are both at Providence, and under
their directions part of the soldiers on
duty there are securing the country
in an effort to discover other members
of the union party who engaged in yes
terday's battle.
1t is said the authorities have Sc
cured valuable information bearing on
the attack. and warrants have been is
sued for alleged participants in the
lighting. Additional troops will prob
ably be sent to this county immedi-
ately.
One of the mines of the Providence
Coal Company is running but the large
mine, on which the attack was made,
is idle, due to the disorganized force,
and the killing of so many mules dur
ing yesterdays shooting.
1t is said the ST. Bernard and other
coal companies of Hopkins county have
decided to take out foreign charters in
order to get protection in the United
States court.
The union officials here discIaim re-
sponsibility for the attack, and say
that the men who were implicated in
yesterdays affair acted on their own
responsibility. Orders were issued by
President Wood to the strikers in camp
here to break camp at once and join
the strikers in camp at NortonviIle.
1t is believed the camp here will be
broken up to-day.

ders of Government Bonds for Re-
demptiOn.
New York, Nov. 1S.-A new high
record for gold engagements to Europe
from this port was established to-day
when gold to the amount of $7,0S2,5s1
was taken from the assay office for
shipment in the steamship Kaiser
Wilhelm der Crosse, which leaves to-
morrow. The gold was ordered in the
regular course of business, and accord
ing to report all but $1,OOO,oOO which
goes to Berlin, will be sent to Paris,
the steamship dropping the greater
part at Cherbourg. The shipments
We're made possible by the high rate
of exchange, and it was figured to-day
that unless a rapid change of rates oc=
ours, fully $25. 100000 more will follow.
The shippers and the amounts fol-
low:
Lazard Freres. $2,56S, ,109; Heidelbach,
Ickleheimer & CO., $1.5O6,766; National
City Bank. $1,243,525; Goldman. Sachs
& Co., $1,OO5. .533; Barring, Morgan &
Co. (for account of Kidder Peabody &
Co, of Boston), $75S, $50.
The departure of this amount of yel-
low metal marks a change of attitude
on the part of marine underwriters IN
this country. For a long time, even
with safe and modern ocean going ves-
sels it was the custom of underwriters
not to risk more than about $4,000,0O0
in any one bottom
All the gold going out Tomorrow will
be in the form of bars. The packing of
this vast amount of gold was done at
the assay office to-day and was not
completed until late hour. The ST.
100000 gold to Germany (two-thirds of
the shipment of Hedelbach, Ickelheirm-
er & Coz was packed in oblong boxes.
The remainder was put into brand new
oak kegs which were strongly bound
with iron hoops and carefully sealed
top and bottom.
To offset the heavy gold exports
there were unusually large tenders of
government bonds for redemption at
| the sub-treasury. One house turned in
| $1,6e5, 600 of the As of 1925, for which S2.-

BRITAIN NOT INTERESTED
No Special Importance Attached to
Canal Treaty There.

London, Nov. 1S.--Except as affording
a chance for the opposition journals to
attack the government and the foreign
secretary. Lord Lansdowne. the sign
ing of the new Isthmian canal conven-
ton does not excite strong interest in
Great Britain. II is generally admitted
that the British have nothing TO gain
by retention OF the Clayton Bulwer
treaty. while they have much TO gain
by the construction of the canal.
The Morning Post congratulates both
countries on the completion OF the
treaty, and says Il Is glad that the
convention OF 1900 has been revised In
accordance with American wishes.
The Daily Mail fears that the sign
ing may not terminate forever a trou-
blesome dispute, and thinks Canada
ought 10 receive some equivalent for
me concessions which have probably
been made.

THE EXPRESS STAMP CASE.
Georgia Railroad Commission Up
held by Supreme Court.


Washington, Nov. 1S.--Justice Har-
Ian, in the United States Supreme
Court to-day handed down the opinion
of the court in the case of Dinsmore
against the Southern Express Com
pany, coming to the court on a writ of
certiorari from the Circuit Court of
Appeals for the Fsfth circuit The case
involved the requirement of the ex-
press company that shippers should
themselves affix the revenue stamp on
bills of lading which were made neces-
sary under the war revenue act of
1898. The case originated in Georgia,
where complaint was made before the
State Railroad Commission on account
of the express company's stamp regu-
lation. That commission made an or
der requiring the express company to
supply the stamps, with which the
company expressed a willingness to
comply. Mr. Dinsmore being a stock
holder in the express company brought
suit TO enjoin the company. The Cir
cult Court of Appeals decided against
him land he brought the case into the
supreme Court. Justice Harlans opin-
ion affirmed that of the Circuit Court.

WITH FIRE IN HER HOLD.
The Accomac Puts Into Key West
with 5000 Bales Burning.

Key West, Fla, Nov. 1S.-The Brit
ish steamer Accomac, from Galveston
to Liverpool, with 5000 bales of cot
ton. is in port with a serious fire in her
hold. The fire was discovered thirty
six hours before the vessel could make
this port, and the fire had made con-
siderable headway. On arriving here
a contract was made for discharging
cargo and extinguishing the fire. When
the matches were opened the fire was
much worse than expected, and the
men were driven from the hold. The
apparatus on hand was not powerful
enough to fight the fire. and the
matches were again closed. The city
firemen We're then appealed to and they
succeeded in getting out two hundred
bales from the after hatch and one hun
dred from the forward hatch, but were
iinally forced to abandon this work on
account of the heat. Water was then
poured into the holds until the ship
listed considerably. The fire Is believed
to be out now in the port side. 1t
will probably take ten days to extin-
guish the fire entirely.

corning the hemp combination. Mai.

him share in the promotion stock.
