 in Next Ten Days.

Indianapolis, Ind, July 21.-The last of the miners who were here to make provision for carrying on the strike in the anthracite field left the city Sunday for their homes. Only President Mitchell and one or two officials of the national executive board remain, and their stay will be short. President Mitchell expects to leave for Wilkesbarre to-day or Tues day. The care of the national organ lzatlon now will be to see to the col lection of the defense fund with which to carry on the strike. Sec retary Wilson, who is the financial head of the union, will be in charge of this work and will lose no time in preparing to handle the sums. It is believed that all the voluntary con- tributions from the various districts and sub-districts and local organiza- tions will be turned into his hands with the next ten days. These con- tributions are estimated at about for ty thousand dollars.
 A part of the contribution money has already been turned in. The Ohio men before leaving turned over to Secretary Wilson a check for their $1o,oOo. The $50,o0o from Illinois is expected to arrive Tuesday,

The News at San Francisco.

San Francisco, July 2O.-The news of the death of John w. Mackay in London caused quite a shock here, notwithstanding the public were in a measure prepared for it by the previ- ous announcement of his illness. Mir. Mackay was the last surviving mem- Der of the four bonanza kings, Flood. O'Brien and Fair, the other three, having long since died. For the past IS years Mir. Mackay had not been actively identified with the life of this city, but had passed most of his time in the east, making annual visits to the coast to look after his property interests in this state and Nevada. On the occasion of his last visit to this city, early this summer, Mr. Mackay completed arrangements for a. land ing place for the new Pacific cable. a project that he was much interested in.
 Mir Macllay came to California in 1851, via Panama. He at once en- tered mine, working with pick and shovel in the placers of the American river, and at Downieville In 1859 he went to Virginia City, New, and be- gan mining on the Comstock with varying success. His first real start toward success was made when he be- came superintendent of the Kentucky mine in Gold hill. In 1863 Mackay formed partnership with Flood, O'Brien and Fair. In 1871 this fa- nous mining quartette purchased the site of the Bonanza territory north of the Ophir mine, on the celebrated Comstock ledge. They began work on a lode abandoned by Sharon and other large operators. The enterprise was fruitful source of ridicule in mining circles, nothing but financial disaster being freely predicted. With out losing heart or patience the four men continued expending half a mil lion dollars in prospecting operations. The ledge was struck and over $11O,- 100000 were added to the worlI's stock of precious metals.

Wilkesbarre, Pa., July 21.-The strike headquarters of the United Mine Workers in this city, which have been closed since President Mitchell went west, will be reopened on Tuesday, when MT. Mitchell and the district presidents will return to this city. After brief conference as to how the relief fund shall be dis tributed, the subordinate officers will return to their homes and take charge of the distribution in their respective districts. When Mir. Mitch ell returns to this city he is expected to remain here until the strike comes to an end. It is said, now that the miners have defined their position, that the civic federation will make another appeal to the coal operators to arbitrate.

DEATH OF JOHN W. MACKAY
The American Million.ire Succumbed ta Heart Failure Following Heat
 Prostration.

London, July 20.-John w. Maclxay, of San Francisco, who had been suf- fering from heat prostration since Tuesday last, died at his residence on Carlton House terrace at 6: 30 o'clock this evening.
 Mir. Mackay's condition, as stated yesterday, had improved, but the pa- tient had bad night, and this morn ing consultation was held by three physicians. Mir. Mackay grew worse as the day progressed. He was un- conscious most of the time, and died very peacefully. The immediate cause of his death was heart failure. The right lung was found to be congest- ed and the symptoms indicated pneu- monia.
 Mrs. Mackay, her mother and Countess Telfener were present when MT. Mackay died, and Princess Gala tro Colonna arrived from Paris a half hour after her stepfather's death.

HOW THE STEAMBOAT HAS
IMPROVED IN ONE HUNDRED YEARS

The unveiling of the monument to
the memory of Robert Fulton, in Trim
ity Churchyard. in New York, the other
day. brought to the front a few anti
luuarians who say that Fulton was not
the inventor of the steamboat, after
all BY the same sort of reasoning
Shakespeare has often been shown to
be a plagiarist. 1t does not require a
great deal of lore to show that, tech
nically, the antiquarians are correct,
though actually they are wrong. Some
crude attempts to apply steam to river
navigation had been made before Full
ton was born. and in few of them
boats were run for short distances.
James Ramsey, on the Potomac, and
John Fitch. on the Delaware, made
some experiments more than twenty
years before FultOn's Clermont was
launched. Ramseys and Fitch's ex-
Deriments were so promising in fact,
that Manasseh Cutler. the agent of the
Ohio Company, who melted the ordin-
ance of 1887 said in a pamphlet writ
ten in that year TO boom his pro
iected colony at the mouth of the Mus
kingum, that 1T is found by late ex-
periments that sails are used to great
advantage against the current of the
Ohio. and 1t is worthy of observation
that. in all probability, steamboats, will
be found to be of infinite service in all
our river navigation"
Nevertheless. FultOn's Clermont
launched in 1907. twenty years after
Cutlers's prediction, and which made
trips between New York City and AL
bany. was the earliest practical demon
stration of the application of steam to
river navigation. Just four years later.
or in 1911 Fulton. his wealthy patron,
Robert r. Livingston, and Nicholas J.
Roosevelt. the last named being the
granduncle of the present President of
the United States. launched their little
vessel. the New Orleans. built near
Pittsburg. and sent it down the Ohio
and the Mississippi, the first steamboat
which appeared on the Western waters.

PRINCESS OF WALES
EEARLY LOSES LIFE

London. Feb. 2S.-The Princess OF
Wales had a narrow escape at the
Shire Horse Show. The winning stal.
lion, Hoxton Tom, was being led
down the ring as the royal party was
leaving the enclosure. The cheering
scared the animal which got almost
beyond control The groom made
dash for the exit, through which the
prince and princess, with other mem
bers of the royal party, were just
about to pass They appeared totally
unaware of the danger until the shouts
of warning from all parts of the build
ing attracted their attention. Then
the princess, who was nearest the
animal realized her danger and
stopped short. The stallion rushed I
her royal highness, missing her by a
few feet. It was only by the skill OF
the groom, who managed to pull the
animal to one side as it dashed past
the royal party, that a serious and de-
plorable accident was averted.

the stress of American commercial
competition In an exceptional degree.
Austria had felt. as she does today,
the sorely tried Queen Regent of Spain
was an Austrian grand duchess.
True. the memory OF this country's
reading Of the riot act In Mexico and
the consequent withdrawal Of Maxi
milians French support, and that un-
fortunate princes fall and death, had
not vet faded from their Austrian mind.
II there was any power in Europe that
might without gratuitous malice have
championed the cause of Spain to the
extent of feeling some animosty against
the United States. that power was
Austria Yet we are assured that she
did not do so. She was not in the least
uniriendly to us. Whatever she did
or said against the war was not against
the United States. but simply in behalf

II is a pleasant assurance, a gift horse
