Chicago, Jan 31.-Professor Charles

university yesterday by asking to make
q statement before the students. Just

NOT GETTING TOGETHER
Coal Operators and Miners Continue to-
See Things Differently.

Indianapolis. Feb. 4.-The joint
scale committee Of miners and opera
tors began its task of trying to agree
on the scale for the coming year be-
hind closed doors yesterday morning.
The entire day was devoted to the
first three demands Of the miners,
which were for the 10 per cent. in
crease in wages, absolute run-Of-mine
system and uniform pay for all driv-
ers. On each of these propositions the
committee disagreed, the miners vot-
ing for the propositions and the ope-
rators opposing them to unit.
The scale was taken up seriatim.
The first proposition was for the 10
per cent advance. +. l.. Robbins, on
behalf of the operators, met this de-
mand with a coupter-proposition for
10 per cent. reduction. The proposition
was argued pro and con. the miners
showing that coal prices had advanced
and the operators that they hadn't
by figures. Owing to the feeling mani
tested by both sides it is not believed
that an agreement will be reached be-
fore Saturday, and maybe not then.

SUMMARY OF TAFT'S VIEWS
Governor General of the Philippines Very
Hopeful of Their Future.

hOpeIul OF Ihelr II utufe.
Washington, Feb. 3.-With the end
Ing of all armed opposition to the
United States and proper encourage
ment for the natives, a great future
will be in eight for the inhabitants Of
the Philippine islands, according to
the evidence of Governor Taft, before
the senate committee on the Philip
pines. Good roads, mules, and mich
cows are the greatest needs Of the
islanders, in the opinion of the gov
ernor. He spoke favorably of the ma
:ives, praising them for their attach
lnent for their country, and he pre-
dicted that, with education they Will
become an industrious and ambitious
people.
The Spanish language must be re-
tanned as the official language, said
Governor Taft, who paid tribute to
the work of the teachers now In the
islands. The governor general has been
before the committee ever since the
day after his arrival here and his OPP
inion of the situation there might be
called optimistic. He thinks pacifi-
cation nearly complete, and that the
natives will in due time assimilate the
United States idea, matter which
must necessarily be largely left TO ed
ucatiOn.

dragoman of the United States lega-
ton at Constantinople. and one of the
delegates who is attempting to effect
the captives' release, but insisted,
against his wish, upon sending fifty
soldiers as far as the Raslog.
The governor of Raslog said he had
orders not to let the messengers out or
his sight, adding that he would not al

DESCRIPTION OF THE BATTLE
Mrs sofeI Takes Part with Couple of
RevoIvers-No Quarter.

Mrs Soffel Takes Part WIN COUPE OF
SevoIvers-No Quarter.
The Pittsburg and other officers
were armed with Winchester rifles and
revolvers Of large caliber. They shot
10 kill and their aim was perfect. The
Biddles tried 10 kill TO the last of their
string, but not one of the eight officers
has a wound as n result of the battle.
When the detectives got within about
sixty yards of the fugitiyes they
opened fire. The Biddles promptly an
swered with shotgun and revolvers.
Mrs. Stoffel, too stood up In the sleigh
with n revolver in each hand, and
blazed away at her pursuers. When
Ed Biddle fell and she saw she was
about to be captured she fired bullet
into her breast.
An examination by physicians shows
that she will recover, as the bullet
was DETECTED by her corset and the
wound is comparatively slight. Ed
BiGdle got a bullet I'm the breast which
penetrated HIS right lung and will
probably end his life. John Biddle
may recover, his wounds, though nu-
merous, falling to reach a vital spot.
The escape Of the officers is miracu-
lous. The Biddles has demonstrated
on several occasions that they are good
rnarksmen, and why they should have
failed yesterday TO bring down their
men is n mystery.
After the Biddles fell to the snow
covered ground the officers picked UP
their apparently lifeless bodies and

Murderer Gets a Life Term.

Fort Wayne Ind, Feb. 4.-Charles
w. Dunn, wealthy lImberman who
was convicted of murder in the first
degree, has been sentenced to impris-
onment for life by Judge Edward
O'Rourke. The offense for which
Dunn was convicted was the assault
and murder of Alice Cothrell the 10
year-old daughter of a neighbor. The
theory of the state was that Dunn
assaulted her in his barn, hid the body
I'm a pile of sawdust and later carried
it to his house and threw the body into
q cstern under the kitchen, where II
was found. The evidence was entire
ly circumstantial
