The Chattanooga Medicine Company
with laboratories and general offices at
Chattanooga, Tenn, and branch houses
at St Louis. No, and San Francisco, Cal,
has become one Of the largest proprie-
tary medicine concerns in the world. In
the growth of this great business two
factors have been dominant: The merit
of its product-Wine OF Cardui and Thed-
forI's Black-Draught-has been widely
recognized and the original advertising
methods adopted have excited great
comment The publicity for these medi-

MAY IMPRIsON THE FUeITIVEs.
Savannah Jail May Be Awaiting
Green and GaYnor.

Savannah, May 16-The arrest If
Greene and Gaynor in Quebec and the
sens ational story Of their trip to Mon
treal brings the conviction that the
time is not 80 far off when they will
again be back in Savannah and again
on trial for the crimes with which they
are charged. It is believed that when
they come back it will be to 60 to Jail,
there to spend sixty days for contempt
of court. This IS the maximum pun
ishment a United States judge can in
fict for such wanton disregard of his
authority, of the dignity of his court
as have been exhibited by these de-
PENDANTS, and it is scarcely probable,
in the event that Judge Speer should
see fit to try them for this otfense, that
he will infict a lighter punishment.
The offense with which they are
charged is bailabe and the legal opin-
ion is that bail could not properly be
refused. However, it will probably
be fixed at such an amount taat even
the defendants, with the large means
at their disposal, will find it difficult
to give bond.

manifested on Monday, when the sus-

lead to the mines being flooded by the
calling out of the men necessary to

This Will Probably Be the Greatest
Labor Fight In the History of This
Country and May be a Long and
Bitter Struggle.
HazeltOn, Pa, May 16.-The great
coal strike was inaugurated perma.
nently last evening and is now in full
force. There were no developments
previous to the reassembling of the
convention in secret session shortly
afr o'clock this morning.
From the gossip of the delegates, it
is expected that the proposition to call
out the mine engineers, firemen and
pump runners, thus endangering the
safety of the mines, will meet with as
much opposition as did the motion to
make the strike permanent.
Those who advocated the continued
suspension Of work are as a rule in
favor of calling out these men. The
AloL = NOASC1 v IJlNG mine WOIkcIS lear
that to call out the protectors of the
mines would be a boomerang that
might prove extremely costly to the
miners. 1t is argued by them that
the United Mine Workers organiza.
tiOn has all along followed the policy
Of assisting the companies in protect
ing their property.
II the convention decides to call out
the engineers, firemen and pumpmen
and runners, it is not certain that the
orders will be obeyed by all this class
Of mine workers.
President Mitchell stated most en-
phatically today that the report that
q telegram from Senator Hanna was
read in the convention before the
vote was taken on the strike question
is absolutely untrue. Mr. Mitchell
also brands as false the statement
that he had been visited by a repre-
sentative Of Senator Hanna with the
proposition that the miners accept a 5
per cent increase in wages.
The miners convention adjourned
sine die at Has a. m.
The delegates voted to leave the
question OF calling out the engineers,
fremen and pump runners to the dis
trict officers.
