For Coal Mine INSPECTOR

NJ. T. Upton, of Whitwell, informs
us that he will be an applicant for
position of coal mine inspector for
this section. Recent events in min
ing circles demonstrate the need of a
good, conscientious, practical man
for the position, which we believe
would be found in Mr.. Upton.

Anniversary,
ASSISTED BY THE REBECCAS.

and a Good Time Gener-
ally.

Laurel Rebecca Lodge No, 81, i.
o. F., of Whitwell celebrated the
S3rd anniversary of the order in fit
ting style at Whitwell, Saturday,
with a good attendance of interested
hearers.
March was made from the Mason
ic and Odd Fellows Hall at 900 am,
and the procession marched to Hol-
loway's Grove, a half mile above
Whitwell, picturesque spot, and at
this season of the year arched over
with the luxurious bloom of the dog
wood. There a platform and seats
had been erected for the speakers and
audience, and tables made for the
reception of the dinner, on which a
tempting array of dinner baskets soon
repOsed.
Young Bros String Band was on
hand and furnished music for the Oc.
casion, and did its share towards the
enjoyment Of the occasion.
Opening services were conducted
by Noble Grand N. N. Rush, and
Secretary T. P. Duff, in fitting
manner, after which T. M. Eakin
Financial Secretary, introduced Rev.
q. M. Moreland, pastor of the M. <.
Church, South, who spoke of the Oc-
casion of the celebration. NJ. 7. Tip
,rrt.On, of Dunlap, then read the Princi-
pies of Odd Fellowship, Rev. L. S.
EwtOn, pastor of the Baptist Church
at Dunlap, was then introduced, and
was followed by Rev. E. H. Boyd of
of Atpontley, who skillfully brought
up the subject Of dinner, in which he
was ably seconded by the lrrepress-
ible Tom Eakin, who, at the con-
clusion of Mr.. BoYd's address, in
formed the ladies' that the results of
their culinary labors should now be
placed on exhibition. Accordingly
the tables soon groaned beneath a
magnificent spread of meat and
bread, pickles, pies and cakes, pre-
pared by the deft fingers of the
Daughters OF Rebecca, and after a
blessing by Rev. S. P. Angel, every
body pitched In for something to eat
After dinner a recess was taken OF
an hour, everybody enjoying them
selves IN various ways. w. A. Mil.
Ter, an affable clerk for the company
store, is said to have eaten so much
that he found swinging limb a con-
venient means of support, but sud
denly found that it had severed con

was introduced for few words o.
the occasion. Rev. 7. II, Como

A BLOW AIMED AT THE NINE WORKERS
The Bill Of Complaint Declares That Owing to
Their Att ude the c. & O. IS Unable
to Fill Contract Orders For
Coke and Coal.
(By the Associated Press.)

Charleston, w. Va, July 31.-President
John Mitchell has been enjoined bill
in equity was filed in the Federal court
here today by the Chesapeake and Ohio
Coal Agency Company, a New Jersey
corporation which has its principal offices
in the city of New York, in which fifty
coal companies operating in the New
River fields, the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railway Company, G. w. Purcell, w B.
Wilson, John Mitchell, T. ]. Carroll, j..
A. Richards and about $50 members of
the United Mine Workers of America are
nade defendants.
The bill sets up that the complainant
is engaged in selling coal and coke and
has contract for the output of the col
lieries which are made a party defend
ant, and contract with the defendant
railroad company for the shipment of the
coal so purchased; that because of a
strike in the field embraced by the va
rious companies mentioned, which has ex-
listed since June 9TH last, the coal COM
panies have failed to live up to the con-
tracts for deliveries Of coal; that there
exists secret organization known as the
united MlHe- w OrK6rS OF America, OF
which John Mitchell is PRESIDENT and
w. B. Wilson is secretary, under the
orders of which the men employed in the
mines who are members of this organi-
Zation have quit work and refuse to do
their duties, and in addition thereto as
semble in marches and meetings and so
conduct themselves as to intimidate en-
ployes of the various companies, thus
preventing them going to the work which
they desire to perform, and the said de-
PENDANTS occupy the tenement houses of
the various companies and fail and re-
fuse to vacate them at the request of
the coal companies owning them.
The bill which is a long one was pre-
scented to Judge Keller today and he is
sued a temporary order restraining and
prohibiting the defendants, G. w. Pur-
cell, W. B. Wilson, John Mitchell and
others (all of whom are named in the
order) and all others associating or act
ing with them from in any way interior
ing with the management, operation or
conducting of said mines by the owners
or those operating them, either by
menaces threats of any character or in
limitation used to prevent the employees
of said mines from going to or from said
mines and coke plants, or from engaging
in the business of mining in said mines
or laboring upon said coke plants.

dition, showing a loss of 60 points from
that of June. Shortly after. however,
there was a continued pressure to sell
which occasioned a decline of 2 to 4

tn bureau on Monday. caused an i'm
provement of to points in the cotton
market, the net gain being to 4 points

ashore and afloat to Liverpool Is 100000
against 100000 last year and 1852, 900 year
before last. The thirty-one leading in
terror towns received during the week
7,400 against $4,000 last year and 1880
year before last, and they hold in stock
$4,000 against 100000 last year and AZ, 900
year before last. The visible supply of
American during the week decreased
$4,000 against a loss of 1000 last year
and $4,000 year before last, and the ag-
gregate supply of American to date is
1,091 900 against 100000 last year and
$4,000 year before last. Beneficial rains
fell in Arkansas, Tennessee, Louisiana
and Mississippi. The weather has clear
ed in Texas and the rain area has moved
eastward. The predictions are for fair
weather tonight and Saturday in Texas,
Arkansas and Louisiana and occasional
showers and thunderstorms throughout
the rest of the belt. Referring to the
bureau, the report issued on August 3rd
last year made the general average con-
dition 772 per cent, or a decrease of 3.6
points. On July 3rd it was 1877 per cent,
consequently allowing for the same de-
terioration of S.9 points during July as
last year. the condition would be sos
as compared to 77.2 last year, The
weather conditions during the past month
have on the whole been favorable and
would warrant the bureau in issuing a
general condition as good or better than
last month, but from experience the trade
knows that the bureau advices are gen.
orally more pessimistic than private
ones, therefore it is probable that the
average condition will range from 70 to
| SO per cent. In the meanwhile the even
| ing up of trades before bureau and
weather condition will influence.
