 Hopes of Winning.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, September 15.-sheriff Jacobs and a large number of deputies assembled at the court house at an early hour this morning in anticipation of trou- ble occurring at some of the mines. But outside of an outbreak at Old Forge, in which an Italian was badly beaten by strikers. the day was very quiet one In the strike region. John Fallon went to Nanticoke early in the morning to head off any trouble in that section and other prominent officials of the United Mine Workers went to other parts of the coun- collieries. But no marches were attempt ed. neither was there any effort made to resume work at any of the big mines. It is said that the attempt may be made when least expected, probably some day this week.
 An important conference will be held at strike headquarters tomorrow. Among those who will take part will be Presi- dent Mitchell, District President Nichols. Duffy, Fahey and National Treasurer Wilson of Indianapolis, and Samuel Gom- pers president of the American Fed eration of Labor. Bishop Fallows of the Reformed Episcopal church of Chicago may also be present. It is stated the chief topic will be the relief plan.

CAPTAIN ROBSON WILL
 BE ASSIGNED TO DUTY
Surgeon General Rkey of the Navy Decides That His Eyes Have Improved Enough for Him to Resume His Work-Con-
 sructorS Are in Great Demand Just Now

to Dr. Rixey, surgeon-general of the navy. Coi structor Hobson called in per- son at the navy department a short time ago and saw Dr. Rixey who without hav- ing to make a special examination, has pronounced the officer fit for duty.
 Constructor Hohson desires to resume his former duty at the Crescent Ship building company. Captain Hobson has notified the navy department that he will persist in his determination to retire be- cause of an affection of the eyes.
 The navy department Is particularly de- sirous that Captain Hobson be not al- lowed to retire, as the service could not well afford to lose his services at the present time.
 Recently two officers of the construc- tion corps have resigned from the ser vice. With :he immense amount of ship building now in progress the services of all the naval constructors are especially needed

AN AWFUL SACRIFICE.
Twenty-four Lives Lost In Building
 Rapid Transit Subway.


 New York, September 15-After an ex- penditure of s21.0OO,0 GOO and the sacrifice of twenty-four human lives, the Rapid Transit subway under construction in this city is, according to the World. ex- actly three-ffths completed. The state ment of the stage of progress is based on data compides in the office of Chef En- gineer Parsons.
 When the worlxmen were last paid off $21,0O0,000 in round figures had been dis bursed, or three-fifths of the $35,OOO for which John B. Mcdonald contracted to build the tunnel.
 There have been only two notatle dis asters to call attention to the danger of life involved in the great undertaking. These cost the number of lives mem toned.
 It is estimated that the task will occupy another year at least
 he men in charge of the work are of the opinion that they have been fortun- ate thus far in reducing the peril to life and limb to the minimum. They say that after millions of people have been walk ing, driving and riding in street cars for two years on the brink of an excavation extending for miles through the city, and thousands of men have been employed in hazardous underground work, the wonder is that the list of victims IS not much longer.
 It has been necessary to excavate B. 000,G00 cubic yards of solid rock, and for mcnths the contractors have been using one and one-half tons of dynamite a day for blasting.
 It is promised that New York will be- gin to recover from it's tcrn-up condi- tion within short time. Only a few blocks here and there remain to be exea- vated, ard several section or the tyNnel are nearly completed.

FIGHT FOR POINTS
 IS PERMISSABLE
JUDGE MAKES CHARGE TO GRAND JURY CONCERNING M'GovERN- cORBETT FIGHT SCHEDULED FOR SEPTEMBER 22.

Louisville, September 15-In his charge to the grand Jury today Judge Barker of the criminal division of the Jefferson circuit court referred to the McGovern- Corbett contest scheduled to take place in this city September 9. and after quot ing the Kentucky law in the case and de- flning a prize fight any fight for prize, whether a title, bet, wager or stake. he stated that statute does not prohibit "sparring exhibition" until the winner takes something he would not have secured had he lost. Continuing the judge declared:
 T have nothing to do with the policy of this law. We have nothing to do with the question as to whether prize fights ought or ought not to be given. We have to do simply with the enforcement of this law just as we find it on the statute book.
 .I wish to reiterate that any fight at which the winner gets something that he would not have gotten if he had not been declared the victor, whether large or small in amount, is a prize fight; other wise not. A fight for championship or for belt or for money or for anything of value in my opinion is a prize fight.
 "As to this particular prize fight or fight whatever it Is called. I understand that the police authorities have 1t in their charge and that the mayor has said that there should be no violation of the law. I want to say to you that I have every confidence in what the mayor says.
 Should you believe that there will be violation of the law then it will be your duty to take 1t up, the duty of the next grand jury to take the matter in hand"
 Attorney General Pratt arrived here to- night from Frankfort and will tomorrow file an injunction suit in accordance with Governor Beckham's instructions to de- termine the status of the contest He declined to discuss his plans tonight

TO SNUB THE POPE.
The czar Will Not Call at the Vatican
 While In Italy.

Rome, September 15.-The announce ment that the czar, when he returns the visit of King Victor Emanuel, will not call on the pope has seriously disturbed the vatican. It is said that the Russian minister to the Holy See will purposely be absent from Rome during the sojourn of the czar here, so as to render it easier to ignore the vatican.
 Papal diplomacy is doing its utmost to prevent such an awkward incident, which is attributed to the desire of the czar to show his displeasure at the pope's action in withdrawing the papal nuncio from The Hague because he was not invited to take part in the peace con gross.
