The sessions of the commis- sion will begin at 10 o'clock tomorrow in the Lackawanna county courthouse.
 Most of the Representatives of the con- tending parties are also on the ground. Each side will have an array of attor- neys, and it is expected that at least two weeks will be taken up in hearing the witnesses on each side President Mitchell. representing the miners, prob ably will open the proceedings with a formal statement presenting the case of the miners. Following this formal pre- sentation of the miners side of the issue it is expected MT. Mitchell will call wit nesses who will be examined by his at torneys, by those representing the coal companies, and also by the commissions ers Most of the witnesses will be prac- tical miners, and they will give testi- mony in support of the demands laid be- fore the commission in MT. Mitchell s preliminary statement. About twenty five or thirty miners will take the wit ness stand.
 Attorney c. s. Darrow and Henry D. Lloyd both of Chicago, will make ad- dresses on behalf of the miners later in the proceedings after which the oper- ators will make their defense.
 It is said 1t Is the intention of the com mission to adhere closely to ordinary court procedure in pursuing it's investiga- tion as it possibly can. It will, however, not unnecessarily restrict either side in presenting evidence. In the evidence to be given to the commission will be great masses of statistics which are being pre- pared by hundreds of clerks of the com- panies. The miners will hand up bundles of due bills, issued to them by the com panies, which show accurately the money paid to the men,

 AS soon as her pumps Is repaired the Bogota will again sail in search of the revolutionary fleet. Captain Marmaduke of the Bogota is of the opinion that the recent work of his ships cannon will make the revolutionlsts more careful in the future.

When the isthmtan canal is completed 1t will shorten the route to China by thouSandS or miles Irom Ne" York to Shanghai
 With your energy and enterprising spirit there is no reason why your trade with China should not surpass that which you have with Great Britain. The trade with China is only in its infancy.
 "As you know" said MT. Wu in conclu- sion, T am leaving this country to return to my home to accept a higher position which has been graoiously conferred upon hxyf f1aa fc Fl ma to say what l shall be able to do. But assure you that in my new position when ever can do anything for the promotion of trade between these two countries, you may depend upon 1t I shall not spare pains to promote that object"
