is not this a conservative PROPOSE

Shall trusts have their own way. or

There is certainly danger ahead. The
first utterances of the President favor,

upon him caustic criticism. This shows
the animuS of the power he is seeking
to control. Meanwhile, slowly, but
surely we are marching towards a new
national event. Civilization ever pro-
crosses, but great reformers have gone
through the perils of fire and sword.

Day on which He Predicted End of
Strike Hus Passed.

Shenandoah, Pa. Sept. 14.-To-mor-
row will begin the 10th week of the
coal strike. The date on which Sen
ator Plat predicted that the strike
would end has passed, and the hope
which was instilled into the people in
this locality because of that prediction
has been succeeded by a feeling that
the end is still far Off
The reiteration by the coal presidents
during the week that no concessions
would be made and the resolutions
passed by nearly all the local unions
Of the United Mine Workers renewing
their allegiance to their officers and
pledging themselves to continue the
strike unless concessions are granted
show that neither side to the contro-
versy is weakening.
Gen. Goblin, in charge OF the state
troops encamped in this county, denies
that he is preparing TO remove the
troops at an early date, or that he ex-
poets an order from the Governor to
withdraw the troops. He says he does
not anticipate an order of that kind
until there is a settlement of the strike.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Sept. 14.-Superin-
tendent Barnard of the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western Company's
collieries in the Wyoming region, this
evening notified Sheriff Jacobs that adj
ditional men would be put to work to-
morrow at the colieries which re-
stunned operations last week, and that
probably one or two more of the mines
would be started up. superintendent
Barnard fears that the increased activ-
ity at the mines may cause interference
upon the part of outside parties and he
requested the sheriff to furnish ample
protection for the workmen. Sheriff
Jacobs says he does not expect an out
break, but will have a large force of
deputies at hand to send any place in
the region where trouble should occur
President Mitchell is still silent on
the conference held with Gov. Stone
at Harrisburg on Saturday. He said
this evening that there was no change
in the strike situation.
There was a rumor in circulation
tonight that strikers contemplated
making marches on the collieries that
should resume work tomorrow. Presi-
dent Mitchell was asked about the
matter and said he did not believe
there was any truth in 1t. and that
it was probably circulated to discredit
the strikers.

been made to Justice Scott, in the SUI
preme court, by three men who clairl

were placed in the New York Juvenile
Asylum. and in the same year were sent
to Iowa and apprenticed to persons.
They believe their father is dead. Mrs.
Flagler's estate is said to be worth
nearly $2,600.oOo. The application was
not opposed. but the court was asked
to make such equitable provision for
the nephews as might seem proper.
Justice Scott appointed referee TO.

THE DEFEAT At sploN koP.
Publication of All the Dispatches
Shows Butler in Bad Light.

London. April 17.-All the official dis
patches referring to the defeat sus-
tanned by the British troops under Bull
Ter at Spion Kop, Jan. "a, 1900, We're
made public today. Those hitherto
published merely emphasize how hope-
lessly muddled We're the preparations
for that engagement. The controversy
between Butler and Sir Charles War
rem is proved to be even more bitter
than previously hinted at, while the
news extracts from one of Lord Rob
erts' dispatches brings additional cen
sure on Butler. Roberts declares Bu!-
ler's endeavor to put the responsibility
for the defeat on Warren is not justi-
fed Roberts holds 1t was Buffers duty
to intervene when he saw things going
wrong. The question of actual respon.
sibility for the retreat from Spion Kop
is shrouded in mass of dispatches,
proving that mistake was made in
sending q heliograph and that there
was general desire to shirk the onus.
Beyond this washing of dirty linen
nothing appears to be accomplished by
publication of the dispatches.
