mined for the market.
At strike headquarters it is claimed
that the output CT coal at the washery

cal officers were required to protect
Ehe few men employed at the place.
Nothing was known at strike head

elected by several guards. He ra.
turned later and said: whats t. :
use Of us having trouble over this
thing? Let's be friends" The guard
agreed and as he put out his hand
tc shake hands with the striker, the
latter drew knife and viciously

AnC0.er guard rushed to aid his com.
lanion and in an effort to get the
knife away from the striker he seized
the heavy blade and several fingers
were so badly cut that they may have
to be amputated.

Christian to settle the miners strike.
The writer said that if Christ was
taken more into business affairs there
would be less trouble in the world
AID that if Mr.. Baer granted the

President Baer Replies.
President Baer replied as follows.
81 see you are evidently biased in
your religious views in favor Of the
right Of the workingman to control
business in which he has no other
interest than to secure fair wages for
the work he does. I beg Of you not
to be discouraged. The rights and in
terests Of the laboring man will be
protected and cared for, not by the
labor agitators. but by the Christian
men to whom God, in His infinite wis

"A GENTLEMAN OF FRANCE"
 This Is period of productions" in the theatrical world and Kyrle Bellew did we'll to signallze his reappearance on the stage by a production so admir- able and elaborate as "A Gentleman of France" The play and the star were accorded a very warm welcome at the Hyperion last night, notwithstanding that these are the dog days of the dra- matic season, when players look to- wards vacations and grow careless, and audiences grow small.
 The play is full of the most stirring scenes and from start to finish is a splendid romantic melodrama of the best type of to-day. MT. Bellew is an actor who possesses the virility and TO- business of the old school, with the subtlety and detail of the new. His Gaston de Marsac is sympathetic pie ture of mingled fire and pathos, less hu- morous, but more real, than Don Cae- sar de Bazan. MT. Bellows leading lady, Eleanor Robson, again showed

Of the Stock Market Letter of J. L..
 Mclean & Co.

Of the Stock Market Letter of J. L. Mclean & Go. l New York, May 16.--As was to have
 been expected the miners strike in coal regions had somewhat depressing ef- feet upon values but the market show ed that stocks are held by strong inter- lower prices. The coal operators are well prepared for the strike. Other de- velopments are exceedingly favorable. Money is working easier and the con- dition of crops is much better than in- dicated by the May 1 government re- port, and there is such to be a phenorn- enaily large acreage of corn planted this sea son. Railroad earnings continue to go on increasing at an astonishing rate. Some twenty roads show net increases in earnings for April of 8 per cent. over last year.
 Insiders are borrowing large sums of money from Europe, which looks as though they are providing themselves with funds to carry on an extensive bull campaign later. The better class of stocks around present level look in- vi.ing.
 Barring accidents to the coming corn and oat crops we look for an extended bull movement during the summer months.
 Chicago market: Some little further liquidation occurred in the grain mark cts, resulting in a further decline, but we do not look for any extended de- line at this time and believe that wheat can be safely bough on this reac- tion, and if prices go still lower, would increase holdings.

COLISEUM OPENING.
Marcus Hurley, Young Star, to Ride
 Tuesday Night.

Marcus Hurley, Young Star, to Ride Tuesday Night, Frederick w. Voigt, the general man. ager of the New Haven Coliseum has arranged to have Marcus Hurley, last years amateur champion, appear in both amateur events at the opening race meet next Tuesday night. This will be the first appearance of the tall- red topped youth who carried off most Of the amateur fonors last year, and, while he may not show up quite as prominently in the speed battles as the other seasoned riders who will come here from New York, Brooklyn and Newark, Hurley's riding will undoubt- edly attract attention. It will be Hur- ley's maiden race of the year, and while he hopes to win, he does not claim to be in his best condition.
 Hurley is a clean-cut rider and his wins are brought about more by the use of good headwork then by any sensa- tional sprinting. He is not quite twen- ty years old and burst into prominence in the spring of last year. Prior to an occasion when on one Sunday he won two races in one day at Vailsburg Hur- ley was almost unknown. From that day he seemed to be ina class by him. self. He. rides so we'll that many close observers assert that he could make a fortune In the ranks of the money chas- CTS.
 Frederick Voigt last year made him several flattering offers to turn profess sional, but Hurley said Nay to each one.
 Hurley is said to class with Kramer, Major Taylor, Iver Lawson, Collett and riders of that class. He is ambitious to lead professional life and next year will take up the study of law at Colum- hia college.

Grnnd Opera House.

"The Convict's Daughter" was given again last night at the Grand opera house to a big audience and scored another success, and to judge by the amount of applause the piece was well appreciated. The Convict's Daughter is a melodrama, but without the usual overabnndance of sensation and fnur- ders. During the whole play nobody is killed and nobody dies brokenhearted over the villalny of the villain. The story Is simply an dtouchingly told and is full of strong human interest.
 w. R ogden makes an ideal tramp and Nelson Levitt villainous villain. Alberta Lee as the heroine and Pauline sam as the housemaid are both good The performance will be repeated at the matinee this afternoon and again in the evening. and all who desire to see a good play presented by competent play CTS should see "The Convicts Daugh- ter"
