The Coal Strike Investigation.

Scranton, Pa, Nov. 20 story was
in circulation this morning in the court
room where the anthracite coal strike
commission is holding its sessions, to the
effect that sooner or later counsel for the
operators would inform the commission
that while they had been in long argu-
ment on the question of recognition of
the union, the question was in no way
before the commission. So far both sides
have been proceeding as if the question
was before the commission. The story
further goes to the effect that any day
may find an attorney for the operators
before the commission informing them
that the question of recognition of the
union is not before them. Counsel for
the operators do notdeny the story, when
they are asked for a yeriication. The
commission met alto O'Clock.

CAUTION.

This is not gentle word-but when
you think how liable you are not to pur-
chase the only remedy universally known
and remedy that has had the largest
sale of any medicine in the world since
1868 for the cure and treatment of Con-
sumption and Throat and Lung troubles
without losing its great popularity all
these years, you will be thankful we call
ed your attention to Boschee's German
Syrup. There are so many ordinary
cough remedies made by druggists and
others that are cheap and good for light
colds perhaps, but for severe Coughs
Bronchitis, Croup-and especially for
Consumption, where there Is difficult
expectoration and coughing during the
nights and mornings, there Is nothing
like German Syrup. The % cents size
has 'Just been introduced tins year.
Regular size IS cents. For sale by Els.

Colombia has been positively informed that
the Spooner law is mandatory upon the Presi-
dent, he, only, could negotiate a satisfactory
treaty with Colombia or provide for the build
ing of the canal through Nicaragua and Costa
Rica. In other words, Minister Concha- has
been told plainly that the Panama route is not
the only one for canal despite his impress
sions to the contrary. Meanwhile, the con-
stitution of Colombia has been carefully ex'
amined at the State Department with the re-
suit that absolutely nothing has been dlscoy-
cred in it to prohibit the granting Of per-
petual right of way or a complete alienation
of territory.
Mr.. Frank Hume says he has heard moth
ing concerning O'Brien, his defaultng book
keeper. except what the newspapers publish
ed. The matter is entirely in the hands Of
Capt Boardman, chief of detectives. Many
of O'Brien's friends think Mr. Hnine will no,
prosecute him, but Mr.. Hume seems to feel
that his friendship and the help given
O'Brien have been poorly requited. The
District authorities propose to prosecute the
man. ~

lowing notice is being distributed through
this section:
1--WE are on our way to Winnipeg to
organize the republic and to help the
Doukhobors camp No. 10, Canadian Re-

In this connection one of the leaders
of the French Canadians in this section
makes the following statement:
'In this country are hundreds of
thousands of French Canadians who
would gladly return to their native soil
if Canada could be made republic and
thus remove the British control.
"The Canadians of this section and in
fact those located ali over the country
arc endeavoring to form an army. These
men will then go to Winnipeg and there
join the 10000 or more who are now
moving toward that centre.
"Mass achusetts and Rhode Island con-
tain thousands of these French citizens
who are working in the mills and on
farms and who would gladly return to
Canada. but for British rule"

COL. SLEMP GETS MANDAMUS.

Col Campbell Slemp obtained from the
Court of Appeals in Richmond yester-
day the mandamus he applied for to
require the recounting of the precincts
thrown out in the Ninth district. The
application was not resisted. The writs
of mandamus require the counting of
four precincts in Russell, two precincts
in Wythe and one in Washington for
Slemp, but since an issue had been made
in Scott county, that case was postponed
until Tuesday week, to enable the parties
to take proof. All of the judges con-
Cured in the opinion of the court. By
order of the Attorney General, counsel
for Colonel Slemp were yesterday per-
mitted to see the returns from the Ninth
district, now in the office of Secretary of
the Commonwealth Eggleston. The in
spection developed discrepancy of 100
votes in the returns from Buchanan
county between the majority as presented
in the newspapers and the official vote
returned.

THE NIETHODISTS.

Members of the Virginia Southern
Methodist Conference were given Their
appointments for next year by Bishop
Duncan in Richmond last night, and
the conference session was adjourned
until next year, when it will meet al
Charlottesville.
Among the interesting matters before
the conference yesterday was the ques-
ton of giving the usual Endorsement to
the Richmond and Baltimore Christian
Advocate, which provoked a lively dis
cussion. The committee on publishing
interests of the conference had reported
in favor of Withholding the Endorsement
and providing for the appointment Of
committee of five to investigate the
affairs of the Christian Advocate.
This was adopted, but was amended
so as to give Bishop Duncan the au-
thority to name the committee of inves-
tigation. The committee named by the
bishop is composed of DIR. ]. Powell
Garland, b. +. Lipscomb, Richard
Ferguson, w. w. Royal and Frank
Talbot
The spirit of the complaint OF those
who favored the appointment of the
committee was that the editorial policy
of the Advocate had not been bold
enough in reference to subjects of great
interest to the church.
Among the appointments were:
Westmoreland- j. Williams.
Montrose-J. X. Holman.
King George-W. +. Davis.
Woodsyille-C. III. Fielding.
Culpeper-W. T. Williams.
Culpeper Circuit-L. T.. Early.
Rappahannock-R. I. Clark.

from Wellington, New Zealand, says
that the survivors of the wrecked
steamer Gigantic admit that they pro-
longed their lives on the raft on which
they escaped by mutual blood-sucking
through missions in the skin, in most
instances By consent. Those who re-
fused to submit, however, were tapped

IT is STATED in Washington that At
torney General Knox stands ready to
prevent further efforts upon the part of
the beef packers to-efiect a combination.
1t is semi-officially announced that
further steps upon the part of the beef
men to combine their interests will be
met with summons to court and &C
ton by the Department of Justice to
have them prosecuted both for violation
of the United States statutes and for con-
tempt of court. The injunction issued
against the beef trust in the proceedings
last spring is in force, and upon it the
Attorney General depends to prevent
the success of the packers plans. 1t is
held by the Department of Justice that
the steps which the packers have re-
Gently taken are for the purpose of doing
exactly what the decision of the court
directed they should not do, and Mr.
Knox should leave no effort untried to
have the decision upheld.
