The house of protection is tottering.
Its walls are crumbling and falling and
odors of the foul, corrupting political
mass underneath are escaping. It
rests upon foundations of selfishness
and greed and contains no end of dark

greatest. shrewdest, boldest, wickedest

of brigands ever dWelt in SO rich and

everlasting political chumps and easy
victims. But the thieves are falling
out amongst themselves and the intel
ligent workers are beginning to open
their political eyes and to question the
right of the protected plunderers to
levy tribute upon honest industry. This
is a great country and we are a great

The argument which it is feared Mr.
Baer and his associates, in the event
that the commission finds against them,
will advance, is that it would be UNI
reasonable Of the president to ask them
to abide by the decision of the COM
mission without insisting on that de-
cision's being equally respected by
their competitors. Of course the presi-
dent cannot insist on anything except
through Baer and the other railway
presidents who participated in the con-
ference and subsequent agreement at
the White House. The commission has
invited the other operators, those whom
Mr. Raer declares were in no way
compromised" by his agreement, to
participate in the sessions of the COM
mission and to voluntarily submit
themselves to the same inquisition as
the railway presidents, but there is no
reason to believe that they will do SO
unless Mr. Baer and the other trust
magnates insist, and that they have
practically refused to do. There is no
doubt but that the work of the com
mission will be watched with painful
Anxiety from Washington and it is

SsTInI VISITING MINES
Strike Commission to Spend
Four Days About Hazleton.
A RECESS OF ONE WEEK TO FOLLOW
This Is to Give Time to Prepare For
the Taking of Testimony-The
Miners VIII Have the
First Hearing.

HAZLETON, Pa, Nov. 3.-The mine
strike commission has arrived in Ha-
zleton to spend four days in further ac-
quainting themselves With the physical
features of mining.
Assistant Recorder Neill was left be-
hind at Wifkesbarre to receive the min
ers' statement from President MITCHELL.
On Thursday it is expected the opera
tors counter statement will be present
ed. The commissioners will then take a
recess until Friday, Nov. IA, by which
time the two parties will be expected
to have completed the preparation of
their cases and be ready to go on with
the hearings The commissioners will
also devote the interim to preparation
for the hearings by acquainting them
selves with the details of the two state
ments.
Chairman Gray says that the object
in taking a recess OF one week is for
the purpose of giving both sides sufi-
Gent time to prepare their cases and
also to give the members of the com
mission an opportunity to examine the
issues. The commissioners feel that
the questions involved are so important
that any haste may work an injury to
either side. When the hearings are
begun week after next it is the inten-
ton to have the miners, who are con-
sidered the plaintiffs, submit their case
first. How long it will take to hear
all the testimony cannot be estimated
by the commissioners. The sixty
seven individual operators will also be
civ Ivy - 80
well as all the larger coal companies
The miners will take up considerable
time in presenting their side Of the
case.
Bishop Spalding preached at the late
mass in st. Peters cathedral in Wilkes
barre yesterday. His fellow commits
sioners attended the service and occu-
pied front pews. No reference was
made to the work Of the commission,
and only in a most general way could
the sermon be made applicable thereto.
The commission remained in their
sleeping car all night They were met
at 8 o'clock this morning at Pond Creek,
about nine miles north of Hazleton, by
Thomas Duffy, the president of this
district Of the mine workers union,
who will represent the miners. General
Superintendent Warmer of the Lehigh
Valley and General Superintendent
Richards of the I4ehigh and Wilkes
barre company will represent the oper-
ators. The mines which the commission
will visit has not yet been decided
upon. There are tWenty-six mines in
this region, and all but No. 40 shaft are
entered by means of a slope.

All Saints and ALI Souls Days strict-
" Observed at Vienna.
VIENNA, Nov 3.-Onethird of the
population Of Vienna made pilgrimages
All Saints day and All Souls day to
the Central cemetery of Vienna. The
pilgrims started in the early morning
and returned late at night. Some went
on foot, while others used vehicles of
all descriptions. It is estimated that
100000 people visited the graves in the
cemetery on these two days. The pill
grims all'scarried wreaths or flowers
and before the tombs and in the long
grass burned countless candles. The
sparsely occupied parts of the ceme-
terry presented weird and picturesque
spectacle.
The. monuments to Mozart, Beetho-
ven and Schubert as well as the plot
where are buried the 600 victims of
the Ring theater fire of 1881 attracted
thousands of visitors. This cemetery is
the largest in Europe and contains
622,000 graves.

TROLLEY STRIKE ENDED.

Hudson Valley Road Resumes Busi-
neas-Union UnFccOgnized.
q GIENS FALLS, N. Y, Nov. 3.-The
z Hudson Valley railroad strike has been
s settled by1unani1neus vote Of the strik-
a proposition made by the men, who re-
turned to work this morning. The I'M
ion is not recognized.
On Saturday a committee Of the
Glens Falls men called on President
Colvin and General Manager Josselyn
and after a consultation was asked to
formulate table of terms upon which
the men would return to work. This
was agreed on, and the committee sub
mitted terms which, after some amend
ments, were accepted by the Messrs.
Co1vin and Josselyn. The Glens Falls
division held several conferences DUR
ing the day and finally voted to accept
the agreement and to return to work.
The terms were then submitted to the
Saratoga and Saltwater divisions, and
the Saratoga men voted favorably,
while the saltwater men decided
against them.sA committee then went
to Saltwater and brought back COM
mittee Of six which had several con-
situations with the representatives of
the company. They went back to Still
water, and a meeting Of that division
was held at which 1t was decided to
accept the terms and return to work.
The terms upon which the strike is
settled are as follows:
Men who had been receiving Is cents
an hour will receive IL cents, and men
who had been receiving 1879 cents will
hereafter be paid 10 cents. Instead of
having inspectors on the saltwater di-
vision who are paid 20 and 10 cents,
that work will be done at night by men
from the main offices. All the former
employees will be reinstated in their
old positions except those who are I'M
der Indictment.
The company makes no contract with
the union and does not recognize it in
the settlement, the men returning to
work as individuals They will aban-
don their present utilization with the
union on the lines of the United Trac-
ton company, and new union will be
formed to consist exclusively of en-
ployees. of the Hudson Valley company
and having no connection with any 9TH
er union.
There is general iubilation along the
lines of the company because of the.
end of me long strike.

Vote the democratic ticket to-mor-
row, from top to bottom. Taxpayers,
laboring men and all others who want
a change have an opportunity now of
getting one. If you are not satisfied
with the republican rule in this state
come out tomorrow and help turn
them out. Never will such another
chance present itself, probably, as that
of the present. Republican misrule
has been a byword for years with
democrats. It remains now to be
seen if they will vote as they have
been talking.

ST. PIERRE DEVASTATED.

Heavy Loss by Fire.

Chief Town of MiqueIGn Suffers q
Heavy Loss by Fire.
ST. JOHNS, N. f., Nov. 3.-The
town of st. Pierre, Miquelon, has been
devastated by fire. A destructive con-
fagration started at night and swept
the main portion Of the town. The gov
ernor's house; the government build
ings, the courthouse, the building occu-
pied by the ministry of marine, the Ro-
man Catholic cathedral, the presbytery,
the schools and a number of other
buildings We're destroyed.
1t has not yet been learned how the
fire originated. There was no wind
during the night, else the entire town
would probably have been completely
.obliterated. Even as 1t is the extent OF
the disaster is very farreaching, and
the financial loss will probably reach
$500, 600 There was no loss Of life or
serious accident. The rapid spread Of
the confag grafton was due to the trifiing
water supply and to the fact that st.
Pierre has no adequate fire lighting ap-
planes.
The town Of Sc Pierre has been part

There have been many remarkable
features about the campaign just
closed. The president and members Of
the cabinet have been most positive in
their promises Of reform which the
real leaders Of the party oppose and
oppose vigorously. Mr. Moody has, on
several occasions, promised the imme-
date repeal of the duty on anthracite
coal, while Hanna, Aldrich, Allison ct
al have protested that there must be
u1es. Acknowledgement Knox has been
promising the people that there would
be additional legislation looking to the
control of the trusts. The real lead
ers have said, half-heartedly, that
there would be a change in present
statutes if it was demonstrated that
such change was necessary, but Mr.
Knox says unuqalifiedly that change is
necessary, and points out the instances
where he has been unable to prosecute
trusts because of the inadequacy of
the law. The president has caused It
to be made known that he intends to
recommend bipartisan board to con-
slider tariff revision, while Senator
Hanna has assured the people they
must stand pat" and not permit any
schedule to be revised. The Mime
sofa republicans have promised sweep
ing tariff reform and the eastern repub-
licans have urged the reelection of the
party because such reelection would
prevent tariff reform.

statement from the president of the
United States is so unusual that it can
only be interpreted as meaning that
he is extremely anxious over the result

that the republicans are thoroughly de-
moralized in many sections and it will
not be surprising if they fail to poll
anything like the vote they anticipate.

Continued Mining Troubles.

Duffy, district president Of the United
Mine Workers for the Lehigh district,
who left for Hazleton last evening had
a conference with General Superin-
tendent Warmer Of the Lehigh Valley
Coal company relative to the alleged
dismissal Of some union miners from
the collieries of the company in the Lee
high region. Neither party to the con-
ference would give out anything for
publication. The trouble at the mines
Of the Kingston Coal company remains
unsettled. A committee of the United
Mine Workers waited on General SUI
perintendent Williams and tried to
have him give his consent to allow the
check weighmen employed by the min
ers to remain on the company's proper
ty. Mr.. Williams said he would make
reply in a day or two.

needed before the winter is over, and
results are much more prompt and
satisfactory when it is kept at hand

instance severe cold may be warded
off by taking this remedy freely as
soon as the first Indication of the

giving it TO children, for it contains
no harmful substance. 1t is pleasant
to take-both adults and children like
