FIRM AS THE HILLS.
Synopsis Of the Strike Situation
in the Official Journal.

Indianapolis, Aug. 16-'sThe strike in
the anthracite region is as firm as the
everlasting hills. Quiet reigns su-
preme."
Such is 'the strike synopsis" of the
situation in the anthracite field as pub
lished in this weeks issue of the Mine
Workers Journal. the official organ OF
the United Mine Works of America
The fourteenth week of the strike has
closed. and the managers declare thai
the strikers are stronger than when the
strike was declared.
The fact that 10000 men remain on
strike for that period" said w. B. Will
SON, secretary treasurer, today, with
out sign of break in the ranks, is
the strongest argument that I know of
in favor Of the justice of their claims
If even a portion OF that number had
been receiving even living wages before
the strike. it would be next to impos-
Sible to keep them from returning to
work
while the strikers are being cared for
in the best manner possible, there is
nothing in the provision made which
would make a man prefer to live in
idleness if it were possible to earn a
living in the mines.'
Wilson says there is no fixed rule foS
the distribution of the money and sup
plies which are provided by the national
Organizat ion. The census bureau saws
the average family consists of five mem
bers. and on this basis the miners or
ganiza ton is caring for SOS, 900 men
women and Children
Il do not believe there is any way to
whip the striking miners unless it is to
starve them out" Wilson said, '-and
do not see any very grave danger of
that coming to pass
Large sums are received daily by VIII
son for the strikers fund. This is all
sent to the strike region as rapidly as
received

THREW HIM IN RIVER.
Witness in a Drowning Inquest
Confesses Murder.

Bennington, VT, Aug. 16.-A startling
story was brought out today at the
inquest into the death of Marcus Rog-
ers, whose body was found in the
Walloomsac river here, when Levi Per-
ham. aged 10, confessed that the man
had been murdered. and implicated
himself and the wife of the dead man
as the participants in the crime.
Rogers, who separated from his wife
several months ago, had his life in
sured for $500 for the woman's benefit.
He left Hoosic Falls last Tuesday morn
ing and was not seen again until his
body was found in the river Thursday
morning A hat was found near the
river, pinned to which was a note pur-
porting to have been written Rogers in
which the writer said that he had end
ed his own life, as there was nothing
further to live for. At the inquest this
afternoon several witnesses testified as
to the relations between Rogers and his
wife, their frequent quarrels, the move
ments of Rogers, etc, but the climax
was reached when the Perham brothers,
Levi and Boyd, were placed on the
stand. Boyd, the elder, was first ex-
amined and to the amazement of those
in attendance, directly charged his
brother and Mrs Rogers with the crime
of murder.
According to his story, the deed had
been under consideration for several
weeks He said Mrs Rogers approach
ed him few days ago and offered to
give him the amount of the insurance
on her husband $500 if he would go to
HooSic Corners and do away with him.
He refused. Failing to enlist him in
her service, Boyd said that Mrs. Rogers
approach his young brother, Levi,
and exerted such an influence over him
that the latter consented to lure Rogers
to Bennington, where a trap had been
set for him Rogers. he said, was en-
| ticed to Morgan's Grove, where, on
Tuesday evening. he met his wife and
Levi Parham. The meeting was appar-
! emil frfl Iy nd he
preston that his companions were
showing him trick with ropes, Rogers
allowed them to bind him head and
foot When in this helpless condition,
! they chloroformed him and threw him
| into the river. To create the impression
| that Rogers had committed suicide, they
wrote the note which was found pinned
| to his hat The sensation was increased
when Levi Perham confessed that all
that had been revealed against him was
/ true.

REVIEWS HIS FLEET.
King Edward Completes His
Coronation Programme.

Portsmouth, Aug. liking Edward
completed the programme of the cor
onation festivities today by reviewing
the fleet for the first time since his &C
cession- From a. spectacular point of
view the assem- blage of a hundred and
odd war vessels in the roadstead off
Spithead was magnificent show. but
to those looking beneath the brilliant
veneer of paint and polish it was evil
dent that the fighting strength of the
fleet was by no means fOrmldabl The
line of ships was thickly dotted with
ineffectives- Among these may be men
toned the third class cruiser Cauiope
of Apia fame, while others included
such relics as the battIeships Devasta-
ton, Dread Naught, Camperdown and
Edinburgh, which are classed by some
experts as absolutely dangerous TO their
crews, while some of the norninally eff
fective fighters are still armed with
muZzle leaders. It must be pointed out
however, that the display represented
merely the home fleet, not a single yes
sci having been withdrawn from for
eign station TO participate in the
pageant.
The day opened fine. There was an
immense influx of visitors The waters
of the Solent were covered with pleas
ure craft of every variety, from the
tiny canoe to the big excursion steamer
and every vantage point on shore was
covered with spectators. At a. m. in
response to a signal the fleet broke out
flags and in the space of a minute the
lines of black hulls We're transformed
into vari-colored lanes of futtering
bunting. simultaneously the pennant
of Admiral Sir Chas. HOLMAN, COM
mander-in-chief at Portsmouth, was
flung out from the peak of the Royal
Sovereign, which today acted as flag
ship of the fleet. Five other adrnirars
flags We're also in view in different sec
lions of the parade The five lines in
which the fleet was moored were located
midway between the Isle of Wight and
the nainlandS.
