Quires shrewd and careful mana cement TO
maintain a profitable business"
DEMANDS OF THE STRIKERS.
Now. what the strikers demand is: % An
eight-hour day for those who work by the
day; () an advance in the rate to contract
miners which will enable them to make
their present pay in two hours less time;
CD uniform system of paying for coal by
weight. At the time of the declaration of
the strike there was also a demand that
the companies agree to meet the union
leaders each year TO sign contracts for the
following year, but Mr.. Mitchell has
dropped that Cby what right. unless en-
powered by the same forces which decided
on a strike, one does not know
Two years ago wages were advanced 10
per cent, and in many mines 10 per cent.
What il would mean to the operators TO
forth: The best modern breakers, or mills
for breaking the coal and sorting II by size,
have each a capacity of 1890 tons day, or
300 tons an hour. If they were in action
eight hours instead of ten each breaker
output would be 500 tons a day less than
at present, which means 10000 tons less in
the average working year Of zoo days. That
Is for each breaker. not each mine. If it
were known how many breakers there are
il could be shown what an enormous diff
ference the loss of two hours a day would
mean in producing 57,36f,915 tons, which
was the production for 1900.
AS TO the second demand: The average
time worked by miners is six hours day.
Their laborers (whom the companies do not
controD work ten.
AS to the third demand: Paying by weight
is not practicable in all mines. Most OF the
coal in the Schuylkill region lies slantingly
from the surface; the miner cuts the coal
from just above his head and he stands on
the material he mineS-thuS literally cut
ting his way, tunneling up an incline. What
he cuts is left behind him for a month, or
perhaps six months, because of difficulties
of removal; and on that account he is paid
by the cubic yard-that Is, according to
quantity OF material he has cut, whether
coal or stone.
In the region where this is the method
there was no trouble, 40 grievance, and the
men voted against the strike, but went out
when the convention, by vote of about
60 per cent. to 40 per cent, decided to call
strike.
In the Laolxa anna and Wyoming valleys
there are some details of operation that
need betterment few mines. for exam
pie, use Differentiated cars, while paying
pay so much for 3, 100 pounds of COAL others
for 2Se0 pounds. The union wants pay
ments made everywhere by the long ton,
and the price in every mine for the
ton. Naturally some mines are not so good
as others coal lies now in clear. pure
seams, or breasts, and now in scarcely pay
ing quantities. If a not very profitable
comes, slate and all. much a rich
mine, where the percentage of pure coal
was higher. the not very profitable mine

No CHEAP MAN|LAS

The cigar stores have been visited
by large number Of people today who
having seen the publication of re.
cent decision on Manila cigars, were
of the opinion that they could get cl.
gars at the old.time rate. They were.
however, soon convinced of their mis-
take, the tobacconists stating that the
duty which had been removed was the
internal revenue tax aud not the reg
ular duty. As this only amounted to
80 thousand cigars, no reduction In
the price of MGnilas could reasonably
be expected.
Not long ago a man of this city wag
cred hat with a tobacconist that all
of the duty had been removed and
that therefore Manila cigars could be
purchased at the old.time price The
tobacconist Is now awaiting the arriv.
al OF his hat.

Farmers Trust
Recently Formed

Chicago, Sept. l5.-The Farmers Co
operative Association, known as the
Farmers Trust" has opened Offices
In the Royal Insurance building. The
officers of the new concern say that
they do not intend To attempt any CO.
operation in the running OF farms, as
that plan has been tried and has failed
several times. II is their idea to do
away with the middlemen and to con
troll prices.
The company was recently incorpor-
ated at South Pierre, s. d.; its officers
are: President. Robert Lindblom; first
vice president and general manager OF
the grain department. II. II. Carr; sec
ond vice president and general mana
ger OF the produce department, George
W. Linn; secretary, o. W. Clapp; gen.
eral counsel. Joseph w. Burton; gem
eral financial agent, Hamilton White.
The benefit to the farmers will CONS
mostly from the fact that the entire
crop will not be thrown on the market
at once. officials claim, but will be dis
posed of in such manner that the high
est prices can be secured to the pro-
Queer.
Those back Of the plan assert that
within a year II will be In control Of
the entire agricultural output of the
United States. Stock, II Is said, Is be-
ing rapidly disposed Of.

day afternoon for the purpose of con.

The Merchants Association present

proposal was taken by the representa-.

Merchants.
Some OF the Planters talked very
strenuously against the plan OF the

TALKS Of HIS UNCLE.
DAVIS CR0SS.EXAMINED
IN The SUMNER CASE
ADMITS HAVING RECEIVED sENE.
FACTIONS FROM RESPOND.
EMIT BUT THINKS HIM NOW
INCOMPETENT.

r. w. Davis completed his second
day on the witness stand in tho Sum-
ner case yesterday afternoon. with his
cross examination still unfinished.
In the hands OF Messrs. Highton and
Thompson. witness admitted that he
and his mother had made arrangements
with counsel to conduct the case
against Sumner. He testified that the
agreement and trust deed given to the
Bishop Of Panopolis was made at the
instance of his mother, to prevent de-
signing persons from securing the old
mans property. He said that he did
not claim any interest in the property.
nor did his mother, but that her action
was for love" of her brother. His
mother objected to the exercise OF the
option Of the Oahu Railway In the har-
Dor lands. because Sumner was to re.
ceive but 100000 for property worth
half a million. The witness was asked
how crazy his uncle was at the time
of the execution OF the trust deed and
replied that he was not an expert on
brains. He talked at will for some time
on the question of Summers sanity,
but at Mr.. Highton's request this part
of the testimony was stricken out.
Davis testified also to a number OF
wills made by Sumner in one of which
he had willed all his property to Gran
dali. Witness said that Sumner was
satisfied with his mothers action In
ousting CranNall from control of his
property. while he was In Tahiti. This
had been done by declaring Sumner to
he non compos mentis. to which express
sion the old man had objected. 1T
was all right" said the witness. "un-
I'll Wilcox and the Princess got hold
OF him and told him. You know what
your sister has done for you. She has
had you made a crazy man and every
one down town knows you are crazy.
Then Theresa took him down to place
and showed him that non compos men
tbs meant crazy and since then he mas
been very sore"
so the words non compos mentis'
are responsible for this petition?" ask
ed Mr.. Highton.
Witness-"He was satisfied at first
when Crandall's power of attorney was
cancelled. but when he moved to Wal
kiki and found out the meaning OF non
compos mentis he got mad
Davis admitted that sumner had
paid his mother $50 a month for her
support for time but later the amount
had been reduced. He said also that
the old man had been very good to him,
had paid for his education abroad, and
later taken him to Tahiti. where he
wanted him to remain. The witness
said he didn't remember collecting this
allowance for his mother and using the
money to pay his private debts.

hat good progress is now being made with the drilling. The hole is down now to depth of 275 feet, the last thirty-fve feet being in fairly soft sandstone. R. s. Williams, who formerly had charge of the drilling, and who experienced the series of mishaps, has gone to California, and the drilling is now in charge of Fred McConnow, an experienced driller. Since the latter took charge every thing has run along very smoothly and good progress is being made with the we'll. The indications for strik- ing oil are said to be very favorable, the formation to the present depth being all that could be desired and such as found in proven oil fields.
 A Los Angeles paper gives an ac- count of the finding of Phenix man, in the early morning hours, on the street in a helpless state of intoxica- tion, and with but few clothes on. Later, his clothing, with some money in them, was found in a vacant lot. The nRn was covered with blood when found. In commenting on the incident the paper in question says: "How the man got into the lot and disrobed, he will never be able to tell, but it is thought that he mistook the place for the room he had rented at 513i South Spring street, and falling down couple of times, cut his head and bled over his clothes" The so- lution of how the Phenician got into the vacant lot to disrobe is very ap- parent to one who understands the habits of the people there. They all sleep out doors in the summer time, and this man probably mistOok the vacant lot for Five Points or Dublin Corral and turned in for the night.

A VERY SMALL BLAZE
Caused a Good Scare Among Pro- perty Owners on the Hill on
 Saturday Evening.

Prescott's fire department again proved its efficiency on Saturday evening. About 6:30 o'clock a vol ume of smoke was seen issuing from the residence of Judge J. H. Wright on Gurley street, just on the brow of the hill, and it appeared as if the en- tire inside of the building was enve- loped in fire, judging from the smoke.
 Luckily when the alarm was sounded there were a number oi teams on the streets, and the fire ap- paratus was quickly drawn up the hill and well directed stream oi water soon had the flames under con- trol. the Dudes being the first to reach the burning building.
 The loss by the fire was very small but considerable damage was done by water. But for the promptness ot the department in subduing the flames a disastrous coniagration might have ensued, as the buildings are numerous and close together ir that vicinity.
 The fire is said to have originated from the explosion of coal oil stove.

DEWEY ON
 THE STAND The Hero of Manila Tells of Philippine Affairs During the Time He Was in Charge. He Made No Promises to Aguin IT, aldo and Did Not Take Any Stock in Filipino Promises.

Admiral Dewey made statement before the senate committee on Phil ippines on Thursday, concerning the early operation at Manila, when he was in command of the American naval forces in the Philippine waters. The admirals statement contributed an important addition to the sur render of the city of Manila. This consisted of the positive statement by the admiral to the effect that the city had been surrendered to him at the time the Spanish fleet was sunk and when the city did surrender it was in pursuance to a definite understand ing between himself and the Spanish governor general.
 The admiral was questioned by Senator Lodge. He said he first heard from Aguinaldo and his friends about April 1, 1898, a month before the battle of Manila, when it became certain that there was to be war. 'l then heard there were a number of Filipinos who desired to accompany the fleet to Manila" he continued. "AIl of them were young and earnest. did not attach much importance to them or what they said. The day before we left Hong Kong l received telegram from Consul General Pratt who was located at Singapore, saying Auguinaldo was there and would join me at Hong Kong. l replied, All right. Tell him to come aboard, but I attached so little importance to the message I sailed without Aguin- aldo and before he arrived. There were then many promises what the Filipinos would do, but I did not de- pend upon them. Consul Williams assured me that upon our arrival and the firing off of the first gun 5000 Filipinos would rise. None did rise, and I frequently joked him on this point"
