A CALL FOR HELP
The Peoples Alliance Appeals to
Governor Stone to Call the
Legislature.
Something Should Be Done to Stop
the Strike and Restore Bust
ness Conditions.

Harrisburg, Pa, Sept 1.-THE confer
ence committee of the peoples alliance,
appointed at their convention at, Halle
ton last Thursday, appeared before Gov
ernor Stone this AFTERNOON and submitted
a plan for settling the strike. Their plan
consists. of calling an extra session OF the
legislature to enact laws for compulsory
arbitration, better control Of foreign cor
pora tions doing business In Pennsylvania,
and enforcing the sixteenth and seven
teenth articles of the constitution.
Daniel J. Mccarthy of IIazleton said
the alliance represented the business peo-
pie Of the hard coal districts. The only
hope lay in an extra session. Mr.. Nc
Carthy suggested that some action. should
be taken to curb. the great foreign cor
porations doing business in Pennsylvania.
He attacked the beef trust, the steel
trust and other large corporations be-
cause of the high prices they charge for
their products. Mr.. Mccarthy said
president Baer Is the creature of J.. P.
Morgan, who should be forced to compel
Mr.. Baer to arbitrate. A car load Of coal
cannot be bought IN the coal region at
present from the large corporations at
any price. II the Legislation is enacted
which the alliance recommends it will
bring the strike to an end and prevent
strikes in the. future = - >
| Mr.. Mccarthy argued that the present
difficulty comes through the gross mis-
management of the great coal corpora
lions. None Of these, he said, pays a
DIVIDEND, while the individual opera tors
are all making money and getting rich
| T. c. Parker of Wikesbarre said the
conditions in a commercial way are hor-
rible The residents are going away, leav-
ing the region with a remnant of unde-
sirable people.

For some time there has been a sus-

sickness in order to escape trial; and il
this is so he will find that the device will
no longer work. His bond has been for
feited and the attorney originally retained
to defend him Is no longer at his service.
AS result, he finds himself In situation
by no means enviable. - ,s~.
County Attorney Boardman said, this
morning, that he had no desire to harass
the ex-mayor nor to be unduly hard upon
him. If he is, in fact, in such condition
that the trip here might affect him I'M
favorably physically the papers will not

COLOMBIAN BUTCHERIES
A Battle Near Santa Marta Followed
bY Atrocities.

Panama. Colombia, Sept. 11.-Iast Fri
day the revolutionists' made desperate
attack on the outskirts Of Santa Marta.
The government troops were overwhelmed
and forced to retreat, leaving behind them
100 dead. Immediately after the with
drawal Of the government forces the reb-
els started to destroy the railroad tracks.
Saturday the revolutionists occupied the
banana district of Senega, where they con-
ttnued to wreck the railroad, at the same
time keeping up their advance towards
Santa Marta. -. -
Horrible atrocities were committed dur
Ing the fighting by the rebels, who chiefly
used machetes. Almost all Of the govern
ment troops killed were found along the
railroad track, their bodies being terribly
mutila ted, They were partially covered
by the branches Of banana trees. ""
Santa Marta is entirely cut off from
communication with outside points and
the residents of the port have sent an ap-
peal by sea to Colon for protection. 1t is
feared that the revolutionists will sack
Santa Marta when they capture it.

refuses to say anything about the report,
but so far as can be learned he will simply
submit a statement Of the claims Of the
different parties So far as the occu-
pants on section Is are concerned, they
are not to be considered. They are simply
trespassers and probably will not be
recognized by the department. AS to the
property holders on the north half Of 15,
it is recognized that they have equities
that must be recognized. The land on
which this part Of the town of Cass Lake,
known locally as the "old town." was
located, was largely, opened to settlement
| and entry and was purchased by the hold
| ers in good faith. To deprive them Of

cording to the reports received here, and
it is probable that Secretary Hitchcock

continue to hold their land. So
