NINTH WEEK OF STRIKE.
No Change in the Situation in the Anthracite
Coal Fields.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, July 10.--With
President Mitchell in New York, and
all the other miners leaders at Eanti-
coke attending the annual convention
of District No. /, strike headquarters
was an extremely quiet place today.
The ninth week of the suspension Of
anthracite coal mining shows no change
in the situation, there not being the
slightest indication that either party is
ready to quit. The visit of the miners
chief to New York continues to arouse
interest. No word of his movements
in the metropolis have been received
here, and there is much speculation as
to what caused him to go there. The
entire coal belt continues quiet, very
few men congregating in the vicinity Of
the collieries. The large force of coal
and iron policemen, estimated at 5000,
is kept constantly on duty for any
emergency. Several arrests we're made
in this valley of persons for intimidat-
ing alleged unfair" workmen but the
arrests we're made so quietly as to cause
no disturbance of any kind.
The district convention at Nanticoke
today disposed Of much business Of a
routine nature. About 400 delegates,
representing $4,000 mineworkers, are
attending the convention, which en-
braces all the territory from Forest
City, % miles north of Scranton, to
Shickshinny, is miles south of here.

BIG sTRlkE ENDED.



Chicago, July II.--Tbe strike Of the
ireighthandlers 4 virtually ended.
Meetings Of the sirikers will be held
tomorrow to ratiiy the action taken
tonight by President Cuuan of the
order.
BY the terms d the settlement the
strikers accept the schedule of wages
offered them By The railroads July J..
This pcheduIe was emphatically refused
by the strikers 1t the time it was
made. II offered ~ average increase
Of 20 per cent for All classes Of labor
connected with the FreighthandIers'
union. The demands Of the men would
have made an sverige incrsass Of about
80 per cent.
The railroads at the time Of Offering
the increase, July |. said that under no
circumstances would they recognize the
union Of the freighthandlers to the ex-
tent OF allowing the officers Of the or
ganisation to make terms for the men
with the officers Of the railways by
which they we're employed. This was
one OF the chief reasons for the strike,
the men insisting that the union should
be FULLY recognized. The railroads
have won complete victory on this
point. The attitude OF the roads
towards the Freighthandlers' union Is
the same as that maintained toward all
local organizations Of railroad men.
The freighthandlers demanded some
thing that no other organization OF rail-
road employees in Chicago had asked,
and the managers announced that un-
der no circumstances would they agree
to this.
President Curran, of the Freighthand.
lers' union, said after the meeting
with the special managers tonight that
he practically had been compelled by
his own men to accept the terms OF ths
roads. The action OF the teamsteri
was a factor in settling the strike
They took issue with the freighthand
lers, and intimated that no assistance
could be expected from them, inasmucl
as the freighthandlers had strncl
against the advice Of the Chicago Fed
Grafton OF Labor.
The agreement reached by Presiden
Curran with the managers tonight mus
be ratified by the men tomorrow, bu
there is only very small probabilit.
that this will not be done.
| Shippers and the large firms abou
town found things in better shape to
day, and were able to secure freigh
and ship goods on the various rail
roads as was usual before the strik
began.

FLOOD SUFFERERS.
Hundreds Of People Are Rendered hOmslsss
M lOwa's Capital City.


Des Moines, July l4.-Hundreds Of
homeless food sufferers spent the night
in school house yards and in downtown
parks without 90 much as blanket to
cover them. Some had to beg for food /,
although every possible effort was made
TO provide for them. The charitable
societies and city officials are becoming
better organized, and 1t is believed the
wants will be generally met. The
smallpox hospital and the city hall and
jail have been filled with cots. These
can accommodate but small portion OF
those who need shelter, however.
Neither the Dos Moines nor the
Rscoon rivers have receded much. The
net decline since the highest point was
reached, yesterday, is but two or three
inches, and the Des Moines actually
roee half an inch during the night.
Il IL believed the situation in the
flooded district cannot be materially re-
lieved for several days, and when the
waters finally reaches its former chan,
mel an epidemic of malaria and typhoid
fever will prevail.
An estimate of the damage at thi'
time Is practically impossible. II il
expected 10 reach 81 .000, 900.

PLAN AN OUTBREAK
ANOTHER JAIL DELIVERY At
SALEM STOPPED.
Man Appeared on ths Prison Wan as Mid.
mshs--Gusrd Discovered Intruder and
Fired TFssspasssr msds Awsy uahurt---
Appeared Near Who're Arms Are Be.
IIsysd to iisve Bssn SmussIed in Before.

Salem, Or, July s.--An unknown
man tried to gain entrance into the
penitentiary Monday night at midnight,
according 70 Guard Sampson. The in
truder appeared on post No. 5, on the
south wall Of the prison yard, and APP
peared to be watching the night guard.
II is believed that Tracy and Merrill
received their rifles over this wall, and
that the weapons we're brought over at
night and secreted in the fosndry by
aecomplices. The appearance Of the
stranger on the wall at night is taken
to indicate further plan for an out
break by the prisoners. and that the
fellow intended to smuggIe weapons
into the prison for the use Of the con-
victs.
Before the outbreak OF June 0 only
one guard was in the prison yard at
night. Now an extra guard is there,
and the matter of smuggling in arms is
somewhat more difficult if the guards
are alert. Just before the discovery OF
the stranger Simpson had walked down
to the south wall, and inspected the
gate where the Southern Pacific track
enters the yard. He then started back
across the yard northward, and when
he entered the shadow Of the laundry
building, about 200 feet distant, he
turned and looked back at. the south
wall. At that instant he saw a mans
head above the wall, but it suddenly
disappeared. He waited moment and
the head reappeared, and after a few
seconds went down out Of sight again.
Simpson dropped a cartridge into the
barrel of his rife, and when the head
appeared again he fired. Instantly the
figure was gone, and when the two
guards arrived no trace OF the man
could be found. The surface OF the
ground near the wall is hard and COW
cred with grass, SO that no tracks would
be visible in the morning. The guards
did not dare leave the yard at night.
\ 1t is apparent that the visitor was
familiar with the system Of guarding
in force piior to the Tracy and Merrill
outbreak, for at the time he appeared
he would have found his way clear to
enter the yard if the old system had
still been in force. The prison officials
decline to say what the rules observed
by the night guards are at present, but
they are such as to make an entrance
by stranger very difficult.
i The man who appeared on the wall
stood on the walk attached to the out
side OF the wall about four feet from
the top. He could therefore conceal
himself easily, exposing his head only
long enough to observe the position Of
the guards.
the prison officials are reticent con-
corning the attempt to enter the prison
yard, and there has been an effort TO
keep it quiet. These facts were relat-
ed by Guard Gambell, who was on duty
in the front yard. No attempt, so far
as known, has been made to run down
the culprit.

DEATH IN FIRE DAMP.


Johnstown, Pa, July l2.s-Johns-
town has again been visited by an APP
palling disaster, only less frightful
than the awful calamity Of May 81,
1889, IN cost Of life. A terrible ex-
plosion took place In the Cambria Steel
Company's Rolling Mil mine, under
westmont hill. early yesterday after
noon, and how many are dead will take
several days fully TO determine. That
II Ia long and shocking list that may
reach 200 or more men IL fully be-
lieycd.
II was an hour after the explosion
before any general knowledge Of what
had happened sos abroad. Men who
cnmo from the mines. escaping with
their lives, told the terrible news, and
soon II spread like wildhre aIl over
the city. In scores Of homes there
were most pathetic scenes. Mothers,
wives, daughters, sons and relatives
we're frantic with grief, and hundreds
rushed 10 the scene. At the opening
across the river from the point the
Cambria Iron company police, with
several assistants, stood guard, permit
ting no one to enter the mine, from
which noxious gases we're coming.
II was nearly 4 o'clock when all
hope Of sending rescue parties from the
westmont opening was abandoned.
Two men who had escaped went back
two miles 10 nee what assistane could
be rendered, but the irightiul damp
drove them back, and they fell pros.
trate when they finally, after desper'
ate struggle. reached the outside. Two
doctors gave them assistance. and after
working with them half an hour, re-
stored them. Their story Of the situa'
tion in the mine made It clear that the
reecue work could not proceed from the
westmont opening, and then hasty
preparations were made TO begin thai
sad mission at the Mill Greek entrance

NO ROYAL PROCESSION.
Date Of King Edwards Coronation Definitely
FIXED iot Saturday, AuSust 9.

London, July l4.--It lie officially an
nounced that there will be no royal
procession, as.originally planned, the
day after the coronation. There will
be no procession on coronation day,
apart from that in which their majes-
ties will proceed from Buckingham
palace to Westminster Abbey and re-
turn.
It is now considered practically GER
tain, in view OF this announcement, that
King Edward win be crowned Satur-
day, August 81 since the holding of the
coronation ceremony Monday, August
IL, would involve another full bank
holiday, with the attendant disloCation
Of general business, while Saturdays
are almost universally observed as half
holidays. The fixing Of such an early
date for the coronation is regarded as
an additional guarantee of the conf
dence the kings physicians have in
consequence of his rapid recuperation.

TRY OREGON FIRST
GOVERNMENT IRRIGATION PRO-
JEcT TO BE BEGUN.
Chief iiydro@sphsr Newell Nov En Route to
the Coast to Examine Proposed Sites for
Reservoirs to BE Built Under the New
irrigation Law = Best immediate Results
With Least Expenditure.

Washington, July l4.--Chief Hydro
grapher Newell, Of the geological sur
veY, has left for an extended tour Of the
Western states, where he will cooper
ate with various field parties now maxi
ing examinations Of feasible sites for
reservoirs under the new irrigation Law.
He will visit Eastern 0regonEand Wash
ington among other places. Under the
policy to be followed Of first building
modest irrigation works, ii is quite
probable that site in one Of these two
states will be selected for early con-
struction, especially as Mr.. Newell is
Of the opinion that the Oregon delega-
tion did much to further the interests
Of the irrigation bill.
The common desire Of members Of
congress from the Western states is that
the secretary Of the interior shall carry
out the provisions of the new irrigation
law with only such haste as is safe
and in such way as to place the great
est area OF reclaimed lands in the
hands Of settlers in the shortest time.
II seems to be the prevalent belief that
the best results will be obtained if the
government first undertakes the con.
struction of medium sized irrigation
projects, at a moderate cost, each in
itself reclaiming modest area of land
capable, under irrigation, of producing
crops of the first order. Suggestions oi
this sort were made to the department
by many senators and representatives
Just before they left Washington forItht
summer.
Secretary Hitchcock is not personally
familiar with irrigation matters or with
land matters generally. He is, there
fore, obliged to depend largely upor
the recommendations of his subordin.
ates The suggestions of Superintend
ent Walcott, of the geological survey
and OF Chief photographer Newell arr
given every consideration. There j
much data of general character nov
available, but there are no reports Q
sufficient detail to warrant the secre
tary in adopting or rejecting the site
heretofore examined.

SALE OF FORT HALL LANDS.
POcatsllO Has Been Chosen as Better Point
Than BlackfOot.

Washington, July 10.-The public
auction of Fort Hali lands within the
five-mile limit of Pocatello will be con-
Quoted at the city OF Pocatello, instead
of at the Blackfoot land office, as had
originally been intended. Commits
sioner Richards, who will conduct the
sale, consulted with the Blackfoot land
officers, who gave Pocatello as the most
advantageous point for holding the sale,
believing that better prices can be OBJ
tained there than at Biackfoot, and
that purchases will be more readily
made. These lands will be sold in 40
acre tracts by townships, beginning
with township 5, r.. "a E., and pro-
ceeding by sections in numerical order
throughout the township. The same
system will be followed in townships s
and Z, same range. The corresponding
townships in range S5 will then be dis
posed of in like order. The most desir-
able lands are situated in the first two
townships Sales will be from large
display map, cash payments being de-
manded for each tract as it is taken.

RATE OF INDIAN WAR PENSION.
BsntiIciariss Are to Receive IS Per Month
From June n.

stSW SNit@ SO
Washington, July l2.-Under the
Indian war veteran pension law, re-
Gently enacted, pensions will be grant
ed at the rate OF $s per month, and
will be payable from June 27 last,
during the lives OF the benefciaries.
This rate Of pension applies not only
to veterans, but to such widows as
have not remarked, but in every in
stance is limited TO citizens of the
United States. These provisions are
contained in the Blackhawk pension
act Of July ~, 1892, which by the re-
cent law is made applicable to the sur
vivors of the Indian wars in Oregon,
Washington and other sections.
Under the old act and therefore un-
der the new one, every claimant will be
required to establish his right to PEN
sion, and any person falsely or cor
ruptly making oath to any evidence re-
quired by the department, will be gull
ty of perjury. The secretary is direct
ed to drop from the pension rolls the
name of any person whenever it shall
be proven his name was put upon the
rolls through false and fraudulent rep
reservations, and such persons will be
forever barred from receiving pension.
The recent law is held not to apply to
any person who is receiving a pension
Of $8 per month or more, nor to any
person receiving pension Of less than
SIS per month, except for. the differ
ence between the pension now received
and $S.
Owing to the great press OF business
at the government printing office, the
blank forms for applications under the
Indian war act will probably not be re.
Ceived before next week. When avail
fable, large quantities are to be sent tC
the several members of the Oregon del
egation and to all veterans who make
personal application to the commits
sioner of pensions.
