FRENCH MINERS ON
 VERGE OF STRIKE
ALREADY A PARTIAL STRIKE HAS BROKEN OUT IN A COAL FIELD IN THE DEPARTMENT OF THE WORD.

Paris, November 21.-The situation in the mining centers of France is again approaching a crisis. The next day or two will see a definite decision upon the question of a general strike. The result of the recent referendum, which, while 1t gave a majority In favor on the actual number who voted, actually indicated that very considerable number of the miners were either opposed to a strike or not enthusiastic, impelled the fedora tion officials to put off a strike declara- tion on the plea that 1t was advisable to await the decisions of the commission of the Chamber of Deputies engaged in studying the demands of the miners.
 It now appeers unlikely that the com mission will satisfy these demands and the extreme partisans are cndeavoring to force the hand of the federation officials In favor of a strike.
 Already a partial strike has broken out in a coal field in the department of the Nord.
 Ir the meantime the committee of the important Pas de Calais district has pub lished a manifesto against the declara- tion of a strike until the commission of the Chamber of Deputies shall have con- cluded its labors; and similar feeling is evinced In other districts.
 Indications, therefore, go to show that the strike, even if declared. will bc only partial and that it Is doomed in ad- vance to failure
 The Belgian and British miners who have been consulting have refused to con- sent to reduce the output, although they have promised to give financial aid Con- sequently the opponents of the strike predict that the object of the French strikers will be defeated by the invasion of foreign coal, including American.
 The situation at present is that 4300 out of the 15000 miners in the department of the Nord have struck and that about one thousand have gone on strike in the adjacent pits of the Pas de Calais dis trict The movement Is spreading in the department of the Nord and 1t is assert ed that all the miners there will cease work tomorrow.
 Thus far complete order prevails; but an imposing force of gendarmes. infantry and cavalry has been billeted in every coal field to cope with any disorder.

WISHES HE HAD PHILOSOPHERS

Oxford. November 1.-Will Mathis, who sheriffs named Montgomery and subse- quently cremated their bodies, gave him. self up last night to the officers of the law at Dallas, twenty miles southeast of this place, and was brought here at 12 o'clock today by posse of fifty armed men.
 When first arrested Mathis 1t Is said, confessed to having shot the two Mont gomerys and gave detained account of the atrocious deed which tallied with the confession made by the negro Orlando Lester, Mathis alleged partner in the crime.
 Upon reaching Oxford Mathis voluntari- ly made a statement before the coroner's s jury, which has been sitting On the case since last Sunday. He denied having done the shooting, and said that he held the lamp and pistol while the negro Or 1ando Lester did the shooting. Mathis said he regretted having burned the bodies, but also regretted not killing other par ties who had attempted to arrest him.
 
 maintained a look of smiling unconcern and defiance. He answered every question asked by Attorneys Stone, Cively, Roane and M. A. Montgomery, unhesitatingly and glibly. At the conclusion of the brief examination District Attorney Roane read a telegram from Judge Lowry of Bates vile, which said he was willing to hold a special term of court and give Mathis a trial at once.
 The prisoner was then hurried to the jail and safely locked up without any att tempt being made by the vast crowd as- sembled to lynch him. The jury then sat upon the case of the two Montgomerys found that they came to their death at the hands of Will Mathis, Orlando Lester and Whit Owens, and they will be held in jail without bond. George Jackson is also held without bond as an accessory to the crime. Bill Jackson and Mrs Mathis will be held as witnesses until they make sufficient bond for their ap- pearance at court.
 The widest excitement has prevailed in the town all day, but no demonstrations have been made towards violence

Military Commanders of TIen TsIn Do
 Not Regard Chinese Officials.

Pekin, November A.-The military gov ernment and board over the native city of Tien Tsin continue in effect the mil- tary commanders refusing to yield the collection of taxes to the Chinese. They also decline to submit the question of tkeir control of the natl,e city to the ministers of the toreign powers here. holding that continuance of the military gov ernment there is vital to the main tenance of communication between Pe- kiE and Taku.
 The ministers apparently regard the question as within their Jurisdiction and some of them are of the opinion that it is impossible under the terms of the pro- tccol for foreigners to continue to govern Tien Tsin.
 Corea has secured the premises in Pe- kin long, occupied by the United States legation, and will take possession thereof at the expiration of the American lease rext spring.

UNION MINERS DEFY
 THE JUDGES ORDER
JUDGE SAYS IF THEY ARE NOT DISPERSED BY SATURDAY HE WILL ORDER THE TROOPS TO REMOVE THEM.

Madsonville, Ky, November 21. - Ev- this morning. Union miners now in camp in the county say they will ignore County Judge Halls order to disperse, and 1t looks as if there will be a serious clash between the authorities, and the campers on Saturday. President. Wood. of the United Mine Workers says the men will not disband.
 Judge Hall said: 'If the miners in camp are not dispersed by Saturday at daylight I shall call upon General Mur- ray and his troops to disperse them This is positive and final. Nothing but superior force can prevent me from ac- complaining my fixed purpose to break these camps and end this lawless state of affairs in Hopkins corfnty.'' Adjutant General Murray says: 1T and my seventy men are subject to the orders of County Judge Hall If he directs me to make his order effective on Saturday morning I shall deem it my duty to com ply"
 In the coal mine regions tonight the stories are conflicting. All of the strik- ing miners in the district have been or dered by President James D. Wood of the district to report at the Nortonsville camp at once. This order was issued this afternoon and runners sent to the various quarters of the district where the men assemble. The strikers are tonight mob ilizing, coming in squads from all sec tions. The Madisonville men started out this afternoon and are tonight travelling over the country to Nortonsville Most of them carry their arms. Men have been struggling in all day.
 In the case of resistance on the part of the miners General Murray has two companies of militia on hand. It is prob- able that Battery A of Louisville and other troops will be called out. If the coal operators are called upon they can furnish 300 or 400 good, tried men. An other story Is that the miners will move to a point across Pond river, in Muhlen- burg county, just over the Hopkins Coun- ty line where they will establish camp This afternoon General Murray and Judge Hall held long conference at which their plans were discussed.

WHITE RATS ARE TOUGH.
Inoculated With Tetanus Virus They
 Remain Healthy.

Camden, N. J.. November 2i.-The white rats which were innoculated with vac cine virus last Monday for the purpose of ascertaining whether virus contained tetanus germs. have come through the 72-hour test period without developing any symptom of lockjaw. Some of the older physicians at Cooper Hospital, where the experiment was made, say either that it is not conclusive inasmuch as fit was made by clever young men, but not by pathologists," or else that it has proved merely what every bnct eri- ologist already knew to be true-that the tetanus germs are in the air and not in the vaccine vrus. The experiment. will be continued
 The investigation was started at the instance of the board of health as a re- suit of the development of nine cases of lockjaw follc wing vaccins tion. Of the nine cases seven of the victims died.

J., are at the head of a movement to secure the pardon of Libbie Garrabrant, who has been in the state prison at Trenton for twenty y-nine years under a life sentence for the mur- der of Ransom F. Burrows, an old man with whom she lived.
 Mrs. M. H. Schall who has been the Womans Christian Temperance Union visitor at the state prison for four years, and many others say Libbie has thor oughly reformed. The crime of which she was convicted was committed in the spring of 1872. She lived with Burrows in Paterson and among the visitors to her home was Bogart Van Wrinkle, young man about town. Van Wrinkle be- lieved the old man had considerable money and influenced Libbie to take his life by poisoning his food.
