Much Interest Taken In Injunction
Hearing at Chicago.
Chicago, Aug. 14--Argument has
been begun before Judge Chytraus for
the dissolution of the forty-five injunc-
tons issued on behalf of Waite, Tho
burn & Co. and other board of trade
firms against numerous commission
houses, the Bank of Montreal, Presi-
dent Warren of the Chicago board of
trade and the directors of the exchange
to restrain them from running a corner
in July oats.
A great crowd of lawyers was pres
ent, and much time was spent in pre-
liminary agreements as to the course of
the hearing. Old board of trade mem
bers say the case will be the most i'm
portant in the history of the grain
trade, for the decision will probably
regulate all trade hereafter in grain for
future delivery. Several hundred thou
sand dollars of margin deposits are tied
UP by the case, which probably will
run over two days.

FRANCES RELIGIOUS CRISIS.
Premier COmbes Threatens the C1er-

Premier COmbeS Threatens the C1er-
icnI Rioters of Finistere.
Paris, Aug, 1.-THE cabinet met at
the Elysee palace during the day. The
premier, NJ. Combes, communicated re-
ports on the situation in Finistere, one
of them being from the superior of the
Congregation of the Holy Ghost, to
which the resisting sisters belong. In
this report the superior said the sis
tiers had been ordered twice to leave
their schools, but these orders had not
been obeyed owing to opposition by
the peasantry and by the owners of
the properties in which the schools are
situated.
Continuing, NJ. Combes declared that
official reports showed that the agita-
ton over the closing of schools in FL
nistere was purely a royalist move
| ment. There had been grave occur
rences, said the premier, which came
within the penal laws and which would
result in prosecutions, instructions for
which had been sent to the procureur
general,
Soldiers and gendarmes left Brest
during the night to protect the COM
missaries in closing religious schools
at Plougonvelin and Ploumoguer FL
nistere and the schools were closed in
the morning despite protests by inhab-
itants of the towns. 1t was rumored
at first that the troops were going to
st. Meen and Folgoet, and the peas
antry flocked to those places, remain
ing on guard until o'clock in the
morning, when it was learned that the
soldiers had gone to Plougonvelin and
Ploumoguer.
At Ploudaniel the barricade of carts
which barred the way to the sisters
school has been replaced by network
of barbed wire, and pointed stakes
have been driven into the ground to in
jure the horses of the gendarmes.

TO SELL GROWN JEWELS.
Report That Alexandra Will Dispose
of Famous Gems.

London, Aug. 14.-Wives and daugh-
tiers of American millionaires will soon
have chance to secure diamonds
which have been worn by Queen Alex
andra, says the correspondent of the
New York Journal All of the 1858
stones which ornamented the crown
which the archbishop of York placed
on the head of Queen Alexandra in
Westminster abbey last Saturday, ex-
cept the famous Kohinoor, will soon be
placed on sale.
AS the crown will not be used again,
when it is put among the other regalia
in the Tower of London its stones will
be displaced by paste jewels. The dia-
monds, some of which weigh seventeen
carats each and some of which are
small, were collected by Regent street
jewelers., none except the Kohinoor be-
longing to the state.
The king and queen can scarcely af-
ford to keep in their possession a bau-
BILE worth several hundred thousand
pounds, and they have given the Jewel
ems authority to seel the stones. Each
will be sold with a guarantee that it
was used in the queens crown.

MAY RESUME MINING.
Reported Object Of Operators Meeting
at POttsville.
LOOMS MAKES A REPORT,
Vice President of D., l.. and w. Said
to Have Recommended Starting
Galleries In Different Parts
of the Region.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Aug. 14.-President
Mitchell of the United Mine Workers
said during the day that he did not
know what significance attached to
the gathering of so many mine oper-
ators and superintendent at Potts
VILE The impression in coal trade Cir
cles here is that the meeting was held
to hear the views of Vice President
Loomis of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western company.
Mr.. Loomis has just completed tour
of the strike region and, it is said,
made a report of his observations to
the presidents of the coal carrying
roads in New York. Just what the ma
ture of the report was is not known,
but it is reported that Mr. Loomis rec
commended the starting of some of the
collieries in different parts of the re-
gion.
The presidents of the coal companies,
so it is alleged, thought it would be
better to get the views of the resident
superintendent of the mines before
i ILLS was uIJSIlpLc0. IL vi IDdJ pul DOoC
a meeting of the superintendent of
the largest of the coal companies was
called at Pottsville. 1t was the largest
attended meeting of operators and SUI
perintendents ever held in the anthra-
cite region.
The Warnke washery at Duryea re-
sumed operations during the day. A
crowd of 500 or 600 strikers and their
sympathizers surrounded the works,
and the situation became threatening.
The sheriff had a small number of dep
uties on the ground.
Trouble Finally Came.
A riot occurred at the Warnke wash
cry during the afternoon. A number of
strikers attempted to enter the bar
ricade, where the sheriff's deputies
were stationed. One of the deputies
fired into the crowd and shot a Slav in
the leg. At the sight of blood the crowd
of men and boys retreated. The depu-
ties were prepared to fire volley when
the barricade was cleared of all in
truderS.
