Wilkesbarre. Pa, June s.-Thc efforts
of the striking miners today were turned
toward the White house at Washington.
A new hope has arisen in the breasts
of the men that the president OF the
United States at the suggestion of the
New York Board Of Trade may take up
the task of attempting to bring miners and
mine owners together
Mine workers about headquarters feel
that the great coal companies cannot turn

The miners stand willing to arbitratc.
President Mitchell had nothing to say
when approached on the new move to
have the president take a hand in the set
tlement of the strike.
The coal companies continue to lose EN-
gineers, firemen and pumpmen. Many Of
the men quitting now are doing SO from
a fear of bodily harm.
Reports come into Wilkesbarre almost
hourly of men on their way to or from
the mines being attacked.
The attacking parties in most cases are
boys and young men, and their favorte
method is throwing stones.
Several men have been hurt. but as
yet no serious injuries have been in
flicted upon anyone.
The entire Wyoming valley is very
quiet today.

[By ASSOCIATED pREss.1

Washington, June 5.-The house pro-
cceded today without preliminary business
to the consideration Of the anti-anarchy
bill. Mr.. Sibley of Pennsylvania, the first
speaker, earnestly favored the passage of
the bill. He said:
When loving hands consigned to mother

predominant in American character dem

should he made the clear and distinct
declaration that those who plotted treason
to the government and advocated murder
of rulers, should find a land enriched by
the blood of patriots and martyrs too
small to hold those who should conspire
for its overthrow
The patriotism of our nation believed
that almost the first act of the American
congress should be so to legislate that in
the future, neither Johan Most nor an
Emma Goldman, responsible for such
crimes, could escape punishment
Almost the first recommendation made
by the president to congress had dealt
with this subject. Several months had
passed, and yet this had not been topic
of consideration in this body"
Mr. sibley was warmly applauded when
he concluded.
Mr.. Loud of California opposed the
bill.
The legislation was unnecessary, he de-
clared. No assassin of a president had
ever escaped the death penalty and none
ever would Mr.. Loud referred to the
intemperate criticism of the president
sometimes INDUCED in by public men in
congress and the public press, which tend
ca to influence the public mind, said
that that was one of the lessons to be
learned from the assassination of the late
president, which public men should take
home to themselves.
Mr. Wooten of Texas also questioned
the wisdom of the bill.

sTocKMEN ENGAGE in ADEsPER.
ATE BATTLE.
AFTER FATALLY hit
Armed Men coneresate in Village and
Further Clash Feared by
the Authorities.

Whit, l. T., April 21.-1n a fight be-
tween cattlemen west OF Collinsville
in the Cherokee nation, William Phil
lips was instantly killed and Mayfeld,
Jess Skidmore and Lige johnson
mortally wounded. All are prominent
cattlemen who own pastures not far
from Collinsville.
The fight was the result Of an old
feud between Skidmore and Mayfield,
which had it's origin in a court contest
over some grazing land.
All four men were in Collinsville
during the day, heavily armed and ap-
parently expecting trouble. Late in
the afternoon Skidmore and Johnson
left for Oolagah, near Collinsville,
and a few miles west met Mayfield
and Phillips awaiting them by the
roadside.
Without any preliminary words,
Mayfield leveled his shotgun and fired
at Skidmore. who received the load
in the right breast. Skidmore reeled
from his saddle, turning his gun on
Phillips, shooting him through the
heart. AS Skidmore fell from his
horse Mayfield turned his gun on
Johnson and both men fired simultan-
eously. Mayfield vas wounded in the
shoulder and Johnson in the side.
Though desperately wounded, the
men fired again and again, each mans
shots taking effect. Friends who had
feared trouble and who had followed
Skidmore and Johnson from Collins
vile, arrived at this point and pre-
vented the wounded men from finish
ing the fight. Although mortally
wounded, they were reloading.
The wounded men were taken into
C~ollinsville. Skidmore's wounds were
pronounced fatal and there is little
hope for the recovery of the others.
The presence in Collinsville of a large
number of armed men, friends of both
sides, has led the authorities to take
precautions to prevent a possible
clash between them.

Washington, April 21.-Without a
word of discussion of the merits OF the
measure, the senate today passed the
river and harbor bill carrying in ap-
preparations about $40, O0O, 900. So thor
oughly had the bill been considered
by the committee OF commerce that
every senator was content that It
should pass as reported from the COM
mittee. All the amendments of the
committee we're agreed to in the
course of the reading Of the measure.
Mr.. Warren of Wyoming felt that a
fair appropriation ought to have been
carried by the bill for the construc-
ton of dams in the west for the con-
%servation Of water for irrigation pur.
poses, but he yet had hope that the
house would pass the irrigation meas
ure passed by the senate. In view Of
the tendency Of that bill, he would
offer no amendment to the pending
measure.
