Two Held for Sharpe's Death.

Coroner Behler, of Carbon county,
conducted the inquest in the killing of
Patrick Sharpe, the strike leader, by a
mine guard at Nesquehoning Monday
night. Fourteen witnesses were ex-
amined and four deputies gave
testimony. OF the seven foreigners who
gave testimony all swore that Sharpe
made no attempt to strike any of the
guards and that he was shot without
provocation. Four other men were
positive Harry McElmoyle did the shoot
ing.
Four OF the guards testified that
William Ronemus, guard, and not-Mc-
Elmoyle, fired the shot that killed
Sharpe. They also swore that Sharpe
second attempt to hit him when the shot
was fired.
After deliberation which lasted two
hours the following verdict was agreed
upon:
1--WE, the jury, find that Patrick
Sharpe came to his death by the mali
cious act OF either Henry McElmoyle or
William Ronemus, and we advise that
both Henry McElmoye and William
Ronemus be held for trial on this
charge"
Many assert that the verdict is only
another step in the plan to set McEl-
moyle free without punishment Of any
kind. The friends of William Ronemus
say that he will never be convicted

Still Another Party.

The county committee of the Work
ingmen's party on Saturday decided to
place in the field only candidates for
congress and state legislature and none
for county Offices There was much dis
cussion over the advisability of leaving
off the county officers. 1t was finally
decided on as giving better opportunities
to elect legislators. A convention date
for each district will be fixed today.
The Workingmen's party is separate
organization from the Socialists, and II
their announced intention to nominate
Legislative candidates is carried out
there will be four candidates for state
representative In the Fourth district.

Proof That Advertising PAYS.

The effectiveness of advertising In the
Tribune was again demonstrated on
Friday evening, when the pair of spec
taces and the case advertised in that
days Issue were returned to rep
resentative of the paper. The finder
was Hugh O'Donnell Sr., Walnut street,
who promptly delivered the lost articles
upon reading the notice, and the glasses
were sent on Saturday to the owner,
Mrs. Patrick Brislin, Upper Lehigh.
There are still some people, several
merchants and professional men in
cluded, who say that advertising does
not pay. 1t is sometimes not an easy
task to prove the contrary, but instances
like the above are proof positive
that advertising does and will always
bring returns in Freeland when the
columns of the Tribune are used.

Would Not Insure Him.
Insurance Companies Refused
to Insure the Rev. J. w.
Yeisley Because He Had
Kidney Troubles.

This case is but one of thousands
where the head OF the house was re-
fused insurance, because he had kidney
trouble. Mr. Yeisley had given up in
despair when some friend recommended
DR.. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy
and it cured him.
Mr.. Yesley writes;
"My kidneys and liver were in bad
condition and | was anxious for re-
lief | had tried many remedies
without success and when | bought
bottle of Favorite Remedy, it was
with but little faith in its ever help
ing me, but in a short time it etfec-
lively proved its merit. Perhaps the
best proof | can give that it has
completely cured me is to state that
| have since been accepted by four
different life insurance companies"
The Rev. Mr.. Yeisley is the pastor
of the First Reformed church, of st.
Paris, Ohio, and is as we'll the editor of
the St. Paris Dispatch.
There is no question that DR.. David
Kennedy's Favorte Remedy is the best
and surest medicine in the world for dis
eases of the kidneys, liver, bladder, a.d
blood, rheumatism, dyspepsia and
chronic constipation, as well as the
weaknesses peculiar to women. 1t
quickly relieves and cures inability to
hold urine and the necessity of getting
up a number of times during the night.
1t puts an end to that scalding pain
when passing urine and corrects the
bad effects of whskey and beer.

and unless truce is delared by the
warning elements of the coal combine
within few days he will be ousted from
this position.
Self-lnterest has held the operators,
large and small, together so far. This
same self-nterest has gone its limit and
nothing has been gained, and the pow
erful influences behind Mr.. Baer realize
that the ombination is about to dis
solve unless satisfactory results appear
without further delay. These results
cannot be accomplished within the time
given, unless the mine workers bodily
desert the union and belle their present
attitude by returning to work or show
unmistaken signs of weakening.
That the mine workers are not likely
to do either is accepted by those for
whom Baer, Truesdale and Fowler act
as figure heads, and, to save the COM
bination from inevitable dissolution and
unendng warfare among coal producers,
concessions have been agreed upon
which will undoubtedly meet with ac-
ceptance at the hands of the strikers.
These concessions have not been made
public and are known to but the very
few who have been interested In ar
ranging them. How soon or how long
it will be until they are made known
depends upon the attitude maintained
by the miners and smaller operators,
who, at the present day, are fighting
common enemy. All that the Tribune
knows is that they will be announced as
soon as dignied down-coming from
his pedestal can be arranged for Mr..
Baer.
STATEMENT FOR SENATORS.
A committee from the Public Alliance
of Wilkesbarre waited on President Nit
chell yesterday afternoon and told him
of their visit to Atlantic City last week
to see Senators Quay and Penrose in the
interest of q settlement of the miners
strike by arbitration. Mr.. Mitchell was
interested in what the committee told
him and inquired as to what position the
two senators intend to take in the mat
ter. The committee replied that before
the senators make a move they want
statement from Mr.. Mitchell, giving the
miners side OF the case. The chief
officer Of the union said he would pre-
pare such a statement 1T once and for
ward 1t to Senators Quay and Penrose.

PRESIDENTS TRIUMPH"
English Newspapers Hail End of the
 Strike.

London, Oct. 17.-'The Presidents Fri umph' Is the subject of long dispatches and editorial articles in all the morning newspapers, and in some cases congrat' ulations are also extended to J. P. Nor gan
 The opinions expressed are in meas ure of relief felt in England. The Stand ard says:
 British consumers have more than an altruistic interest in the settlement of the strike, for had 1t lasted another month the cost of coal might have risen here to an unwelcome figure"
 The Times says:
 "In a most quiet and unobtrusive man. ner the President has done very biz and entirely new thing We are witness ing not merely the end of the coal strike but the definite entry of a powerful gog- ernment upon a novel sphere of operation. President Roosevelt's personal prestige and reputation are enormously enhanced by the eminent public service he has re l. dered; and they will be immeasurably enhanced when the American peopls grasp. as they rapidly will the far larger issues involved in his striking departure from precedent

Panama, Oct. 16.-General Perdomo, Minister of State and supreme command CT of the Colombian army, who has been invested with presidential power, arrived here today and was accorded a most en- thusiastic reception.

 The appearance of the General was the signal for wild cheering. A military band played the national anthem and General Perdomo was escorted by General Sala- gar and the other officials to the entrance of the city. The streets were lined with Government soldiers.
 This evening there will be banquet and other celebrations on the part of the Conservatives. who have received great encouragement from the arrival of the Minister of State.

STRINGENCY IS ENDED.
Coal Operator is Pleased With the
 Commission.

New York Oct. 16.-During the after noon Presidents Fowler ard Underwood and Chairman Thomas called at MT. Nor gans office President Underwood was asked what he thought of the commission appointed yesterday by President Roose- welt.
 Tt is a good commission" he said. Nobody could have appointed better one. "
 Asked if that was the general opinion of the operators. MT. Underwood replied:
 q do not know; l have not seen any of the operators since the appointment was made"
 The president of coal road was asked how soon the coal stringency would be relieved by the development of the last couple of days.
 The stringency is ended now" he re- piled You must remember that every body has been holding up in case of an emergency until certain of supply from the mines All this stored coal will now be released and will be brought to New | York"

Naval Legislation

Washington, Oct. 16.-In his annual re- port to the Secretary of the Navy, Judge Advocate General Lemly urges cestain matters of legislation which are much desired by the navy. He Is anxious that courts martial should have the power to compel the attendance of civilian wit nesses and that the same tribunals be allowed to use dispositions. He also wishes to consolidate examining and retir- ing boards and to empower commanding officers of naval stations in the island possessions of the United States to con- vene general courts martial. This ina bility in this matter now gives right to great inconvenience and delay in the ad- ministration of justice.

A GOOD DEAL OF NONSENSE.
About "Blood Purifiers" and
 "Tonics."

Every drop of blood every bone, nerve and tissue in the body can be renewed in but one way. and that is. from whole some food properly digested. There is no other way and the idea that a medicine in itself can purify the blood or supply new tissues and strong nerves is ridiculous and on a par with the fol-de-rol that dyspepsia or indigestion is a germ dis ease or that other fallacy, that a weak stomach which refuses to digest food can be made to do so by irritating and infiaming the bowels by pills and cathar- tics.
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets cure indiges- ton. sour stomach, gas and bloating after meals because they furnish the digestive principles which weak stomachs lack, and unless the deficiency of pepsin and dias- tase is supplied it Is useless to attempt to cure stomach trouble by the use of 'tonics." pills and ''cathartics" which have absolutely no digestive power, and their only effect is to give temporary stimulation.
 One grain of the active principle in Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest 5000 grains of meat, eggs and similar foods, and experiments have shown that they will do this in a glass bottle at prop CT temperature but of course are much more effective in the stomach.
 There is probably no remedy so uni yersallv used as Stuart's Tablets because it is not only the sick and ailing but well people who use them at every meal to insure perfect digestion and assimila- ton of the food.
 People who enjoy fair health take Stu arts Tablets as regularly as they take their meals because they want to keep we'll, prevention is better than cure and Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets do both; they prevent indigestion and they remove il where it exists The regular use of one or two of them after meals will demon strate their merit and efficiency better than any other argument.

ID WITHDRAW TROOPS.
Governor Stone Will Issue the Re
 call.

Harrisburg. Pa, Oct. Ex-Governor Stone will probably withdraw the troops in the mining regions as soon as the strike is officially declared off by Presi- dent Mitchell. and the miners indicate their willingness to go to work. The Gov ernor left Harrisburg early today and will not return here before night.
 Adjutant General Stewart Is the only official of the National Guard on duty at headquarters and he declines to discuss the strike situation. or the probable time or manner in which the troops will be withdrawn.
 The cost to the State of keeping its en- tire military force on duty in tpe mining regions is enormous. and the Governor Is very anxious for a speedy settlement of the strike, so that the troops may be withdrawn at once. The prospects are that if he should decide to withdraw them by regiments instead of removing them in a body. those regiments which have been longest in the field will be ordered home in advance of the First and Second Brisades. which have been on duty a little more than a week.

 During the year there has been nc relaxation of proper efforts to make per manent the reforms already accomplish ed bearing on the treatment accorded new cadets by their older comrades.

 At 6:30 o'clock this evening the Grown Prince and his brother held an informal reception for the representatives of Phil adelphia newspapers. The Crown Prince said he wished the American newspapers would use larger type. The print here hurts his eyes, It is larger in England he said. but in other respects he thinks he likes the American newspapers best. But hastens to qualify the remark: There are some bad ones in America" '" he explained. T have found that out, but on the whole I like the American newspapers best, just as I like the Amer ican people. They are so big-hearted and easy to get acquainted with"
 His Highness believes that there Is a great field for American commerce in Siam. especially for cotton products He says he expects to learn much here that will be to his advantage later on.
 T am here to make friends with the people of America and Europe" he said.
