WILL USE ANCIENT MACE.

Curious Scepter to Be Employed HIM
King Edwards Coronation.
Since the lord mayor Laid claim to
the privilege Of carrying the crystal
and silver scepter or mace at the coro-
nation there has been a great deal of
interest displayed by Londoners to
know the significance Of this scepter
and what it is like, for it is no exagger-
alton to say that no one Of a hundred
thousand was aware that this curious
and ancient relic was still In existence.
It is indeed a curious thing. The staff
is about eighteen inches long and COM
posed of crystal, cut and channeled
with alternate bands Of gold and sill
yer, says the Chicago Record-Herald.
The divisions are decorated at inter-
walls with eight strings Of large seed
pearls. The coronet is composed of
four crosses and foul feurs-de-Iis dec
GRATED with three rubies and three sap
phires. besides six very large seed
pearls. Other pearls r arranged in
groups.
There is no record Of the period when
this curious relic was made. It is evil
dent that it has been altered from time
to time, but in its present shape it has
been assigned to the early part of the
fifteenth century. This emblem of the
lord mayors authority has not been
seen at n state function since the
coronation Of George ". It will likely
therefore be one Of the objects of most
curious interest next June.

Mark Twain went to New York re-

tale, he says, and Its not SO very fun
ny either"
He arrived from Elmira on Jan. 80,
where, he says, be had a hairbreadth
adventure with an express train which
nearly put an end to his perpetual ex-
istence," says the New York Journal.
Mr.. Clemens boarded a Madison ave
nue. car soon after his arrival from the
Erie railroad station in Jersey City.
He was looking at his right hand,
which showed evidences of rough
usage. He held it in his left hand.
"It's for being overstrenuous," he
was heard to say. "but I'm glad 1
caught the train"
"Whats the trouble, Mr.. Clemens"
asked a friend who happened to be on
the car.
Trouble? There's lots Of trouble in
my family at this moment" the hui
morist answered, giving his bruised
hand a gentle squeeze with his left.
"I have just come down from Elmira.

I was determined to lose something

And here the humorist squeezed his
right hand with his left, said he had
reached his destination and left the

A. F. OF Is ADVICE IGNORED?
Mitchell Rumored to Have Read Tel
egrams From Both, During q
Speech Advising Peace-A Majority
Voted to Strike.

HaZleton, Pa, May 16.-The anthra-
cite mine workers in convention late
yesterday afternoon decided to con-
tinue the strike of the $4,000 men
against the mine owners and to fight
1t out to the bitter end. The matter
or calling out the engineers, fremen
and pump runners will be decided by
the delegates today. The vote to con-
tinue the suspension was as follows:
Total vote cast, S11; for strike,
461A; against strike, 34sA; majority
for strike, 1111a. President Mitchell,
however, in compliance with the rules
OF the United Mine Workers, an
nounced to the public that the action
OF the convention was unanimous.
While the leaders are cautious and
will not forecast their action. it is
not unlikely that the miners fight will
be carried into the bituminous coal
regions and into other fields of in.
dustry. Mine workers for Is months
have been looking forward to the
strike that is now upon them. They
have saved their money and are con-
sidered to be in better shape today
for a fight than they were In the
great strike Of 1900
President MitcheIl's advice to the
miners was peace, and he gave 1t to
them in the plainest and most force
ful OF language. He was ably assist
ed by President Fahey and Secretary
Hartlein, Of the lower district. and
Secretary Dempsey, Of the upper ter.
ritory. President Nichols, Of the first
district, was the great champion OF
the strike advocates. Mr.. Mitchell.
who was the last to speak, was lis
tened to with the greatest attention.
1t is said that during his Is minutes
address he read telegram from Sen.
ator Hanna begging the men not to
declare for strike at this time, az

would take hand In the matter by
investigating the legality Of the al
legged community Of interests of the

gram was read from the American

and took up their residence in Que
bee. The officials here then imme-
diately began consideration of the
question of the best method to have
them extradited and brought back to
Savannah, Ga, for trial. The extra
dition treaty between Great Britain
and the United States was carefully
studied and the conclusion reached
that there existed good grounds for
the extradition Of the men. To Mr..
Marion Erwin, who has figured prom
inently in the conduct Of the cases at
Savannah, was assigned the duty Of
proceeding to Canada and assisting
the government In the attempt to Sc
sure the return of the two men to the
United States. Considerable delay
was occasioned by the fact that GER
tain records pertaining to the case
had to be forwarded to Canada.
Grounds For Extradition Exist.
I The officials here satisfied them
selves, after thorough investigation.
that Messrs. Gaynor and Greene felt
reasonably secure from extradition
while In Quebec, because of local con-
ditions existing there. They feared
that If the men were arrested in
Quebec resort would be had immedi-
ately to habeas corpus proceedings
and they would be released. For this
reason and in accord with Mr.. Err
wins views on the matter, the de-
termination was reached to have war
rants sworn out in Montreal and
served on Messrs. Gaynor and Greene
in Quebec, thus bringing the question
pr holding them for extradition before
the Montreal authorities.

Officers Hurried Gaynor and

UNITED STATES BEHIND IT
Officials Desired to Get Them Away
From Local influence at the Former
City - Hope to Extradite Them
From MontreaI-Officers Pursued.

Quebec, May 16.-Colonel John F.
Gaynor and Captain w. d. Greene
who forfeited their bail at Savannah
early in March and fed to Canada
were placed under arrest by officers
connected with the United States Sc
cret service and Chief Carpenter, oil
the Montreal detective force, yester
day.
The arrests were made on warrants
issued in Montreal, Chief Wilkes
men assisting the Canadian officers
to make the arrests.
The men were hurried on board a
swift little tug, which had been kept
in waiting at the wharf. Ten min.
utes after Greene and Gaynor were
safely on board and the boat steamed
out into the river and started toward
Montreal. The offioers moved SO
quickly that neither of the prisoners
were given an opportunity to consult
counsel.
When notified of her husbands ar
rest, Mrs. Gaynor at once consulted
Mr.. Tachereau, her husbands attor-
ney. A tug was chartered and an at
tempt was made to overtake the boat
on which Gaynor and Greene were
being carried away.
Impossible to overtake Fueitives.
After short chase it was seen by
those on board the pursuing tug that
1t would be impossible to overtake
the detectives boat, the Spray, one
of the swlftest tugs on the St. Law
renee, and pursuit was abandoned.
On returning to the city it was de-
cided to charter a special train and
attempt to head of the Spray at some
point between this city and Montreal.
The tug Spray, with Chief Carpen-
ter, his aides and Colonel Gaynor and
Captain Greene. prisoners, passed
Three Rivers at 7:15 o'clock last
evening under full head Of steam.
Two Quebec policemen and two de.
tectives, who arrived there by spe-
cial train yesterday afternoon, went
to the wharf and remained there in
waiting for the Spray.
. They held the ferryboat Glacial In
readiness to go out into midstream
when the Spray hove in sight. Sud
denly the looked-for tug appeared and
the ferryboat hurried out into mid
stream, but the feet little tug was
ploughing through the waves at a
rapid speed. and before the ferry
reached the middle of the river the
Spray was a hundred yards in the
lead and gaining rapidly. The chase
was kept up for two miles, but it was
hopeless race, and the ferry and
officers returned to the city. At 5
o'clock the officers again boarded the
ferry boat and started for Sorel. hop
ing to overtake the Spray at that
point. There was not a remote prob
ability that they will be able to do
this.

Washington, May 16.-The arrest
Of Messrs. Gaynor and Greene was
the result Of a carefully prepared and
well matured plan devised by the gov
