NOTHING TO ARBITRATE.
FATHER rIJRRAN FAILS IN HIS MISSION
WORKERS CONTENT WITH
p Z DECISION
TBr TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE J

WiIkesbarre PENN July 1S-The Rev. J. j.
currau OF the Holy 6aviour's Church, this city.
? reached home this evening, and, when President
Mitchell of the Mine Workers Union returns
next week. will report that his mission was
unsuccessful. He went TO New-York and Phila-
deIphia TO see il the coal operators could sug-
eest a feasible plan for settling the strike in a
manner satisfactory TO each side. He was cor
daily received by President Baer of the Phila-
deIphia and Reading, and President Truesdaie
of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western; by
Georgs II. Perkins, representing j. Pierpont
Morgan and the general railroad interests, and
Isaac Strauss, of the Civic Federation, and his
views on the matter received close attention.
Whether he had anything new to present he
does not say. He was told by Presidents Baer
and Truesdale that there was no hope for
settlement and that there Was nothing to ar
bitrate.
Father Curran says that he found the labor
men whom he met deeply interested IN the
strike and eager to aid the miners. wishing them
success and predicting victory for them He
expects Mr.. Mitchell TO return here on Tuesday,
sid will then make report to him.
The mine workers throughout the region re-
ceired tonight the report from Indianapolis
that they were to have large strike fund with
which to continue the strike with more ssti-
faction, after a day TO think over it. than they
expressed yesterday. Most of them have favored
a general strike, and when il was found that
there was no chance of any they were disap-
pointed. The generous sums donated already,
The amount to be raised by the weekly assess
rnent and the sums TO be contributed by other
urio-s convince them, however, that there is to
be a sufficient amount for distribution to keep
them cornforta BILE so long as the strike shall
last. Tonight they praisng President
Mitchell for his conservatism and good man
agenent. and more confident of victory than
ever.
The operators seen regarding the convention 5
decision are undsturbed. hey say that the
situation is unchanged, and will remain so until
the miners return OF their own volition TO work.
Superintendent Phillips, of the Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western, said that the operators
are not worrying about the conclusions of the
convention, and that the miners viii never win,
no matter how long they remain on strike.
To-day the Susquehanna Coal Company con-
tinued TO run coal through the No. breaker
at Nantieoke, and produced, il reports, about
three hundred tons, which it says will be
shipped. The guards have had no trouble with
the strikers, who stay away from the mine
and make no attempt 10 interfere. The strikers
say that the coal is merely some that on
bosses, and not by any returned strikers.
To-day ended the first month of the lace
workers strike, and their wage loss is $50, 900.
These the LOO men and girls who went on
strike because the company would not dis
eharso ten girls whose fathers or brothers were

MATED AT $4,000.

trous fire that ever visited Block Island started
in the barn of the Ocean Cottage late last night,
and before IL was checked destroyed side of
the main business street. The fire started in
the upper part of the barn and was we'll under
way before the limited fire apparatus was
brought to bear on II. A strong southeast wind
carried the flames across the intervening space
Macombers Narragansett Cafe and, in spite
of the vigorous efforts made TO check II, the
cafe and adjoining buildings were soon IN
flames. A hard fight made TO save the
Narragansett Hotel. which stood Just across
the driveway but the wind and flames were
too much and the hotel caught ire and burned
like a tinder box,
The intense heat from this building drove back
the fremen, and the fire then spread 20 the
Naiad and the telegraph Office, both of which
were destroyed At this time the winds shifted
TO southwest, and thus helped the volunteer
firemen. who made a desperate but a vain at
tempt to the National Hotel The building
burned fercely, and in half an hour heap
of ashes. In the mean time the corps OF lighters
turned their attention TO the seemingly hopeless
task of saving the Surf Hotel. Again and again
the intense heat of the burning National drove
them back, and several times the Surf Hotel
was afre; but the wind shifted TO the south
and the building was saved L. g. Negus fell
exhausted from the roof of the Surf Hotel and
severely injured. The estimate of the loss
is $4,000.
Following is list of the buildings burned:
The National and Narragansett hotels, Ma
comber's cafe, Mtehells store. the Weather Bu-
reau office in which also were tbs telegraph
and telephone Offices a tenement house. and
several small buildings. Some OF these were
partially insured, but others the loss

There were eighty guests in the National
House, which was owned ard managed by Ray
g. Lewis, but all escaped uninjured and had
time to remove their baggage to a place of
safety.
The Narragansett House owned by Lo-
renZo Litrletield, and conducted as a lodging
house by John Macomber, who also owned the
cafe adjoining. The occupants were chiefly Mr.
