Charleston, w. Va, Aug. 29.-When the

serve order and protect property in the

THE GENERAL SITUATION,
Review of the Anthracite Fields - Some
Present ActjyIty

neV'e" VI tne Antnraclte Fields - some
Present Activity.
Philadelphia, Aug. 29.-While both mine
operators and officials of the United Mine
Workers state that the strike situa-
ton in the anthracite field remains un-
changed, 1t is evident that there is great
er activity at present in the coal region
than at any time since the inaugura-
tion of the strike Coal is daily being
shipped from various sections of the
field and several washeries are known
be in operation.
1t does not follow, however that any
Of the companies are cutting coal. When
the strike was declared, a large quantity
of cut coal was left beneath the surface,
ready for the breaker. According to
miners union officials, 1t Is this coal that
Is now being brought to the surface by
the special deputies, foremen and others
employed about the collieries during the
progress Of the strike. It is also said $the
big coal carrying companies are now
drawing on their reserve supply to satisfy
the more pressing demands. =. ..f
The Pennsylvania railroad, through it's
selling agents, has been selling and ship
ing small quantities of coal almost daily
since the strike began, securing its sup
plies from some 0,000 tons in storage.
This supply has been exhausted, how
ever, and what little coal the company is
sending out comes from the mines of the
Susquehanna Coal company at Nant1coke,
where small quantities are being brought
to the surface and sent to market daily
The Reading company, according to it's
sales agents. has not sold any coal since
the strike was tnaugurated except In a
few exceptional cases, where coal taken
from stocks on hand was let go to help out
certain manufacturing interests on the
line and to supply one or two charitable
institutions. ..-s-
On the other hand, reports from the
schuylkill region, where the Reading COM
pany's mines are located, state that the
shipments of anthracite sfrom that sec
tion are daily increasing Within the last
few days 500 cars Of hard coal have
passed through Reading. It came from
the washeries and the storage yards at
Landingville, and st, Claire.
The washeries established along the
Schuylkfll river in northern Berks and
lower Schuylkill counties are in operation
night and day, and as high as 100 cars
are shipped in day. What is consid-
cred significant move on the part of the
operators is the return of many mules
from pasture to the mines. Hundreds OF
mine mules were taken to Lancaster and
Chester counties soon after the strike be-
gan and put out to These are nov
being shipped back to the coal regions.

What Compulsory Arbitration Has Done
. for New South Wales. ..-
New York, Aug. 29.-Sir Edmund Bar
ton, prime minister and minister Of ex-
ternal affairs Of New South Wales, Aus
tralia, who was one Of the most conspicu-
Gus members Of the recent conference Of
British colonial premiers in London is on
his way back to Australia. He considers
the frequent strikes in the United States
a serious matter-one which requires
careful study. 5
II think he said, that we In Australia
are very much in advance Of your country
in the matter OF dealing with industrial
conditions. BY the terms of our arbi-
tration law, great strikes are made prac-
tically impossible. Arbitration is COM
pulsory, and when disputes arise between
employers and employed both parties are
required to submit the issue to a board OF
arbitration which is under government
control. Since the enactment OF this oom
pulsory arbitration law. strikes in New
South Wales are unknown. A similar
| system exists in New Zealand"
Sir Edmund and his party will visit

New Haven, Conn, Aug. 2s.-An open
letter in regard to the contest at Louis
Vile, KY, between Terry McGovern and
Young Corbett was sent to-day to Col
onel Henry Watterson of Louisville by
s. p. Thrasher of this city, secretary Of
the Law and Order League Of Connecti-
cut. The letter recounts the recent his
tory Of prize fighting in Connecticut and
the agitation against it together with the
measures taken to prevent the intended

at New London. The letter suggests that
Louisville should not be regarded as a
dumping place for pugilists shut out from

that it would seem feasible for some
kind Of anti-prize fight movement to be
inaugurated in Louisville.
THE calling of a brutal prize fight a

marriage of General Grants granddaugh-
ter the other day. Chevaliers brushed
elbows with dukes and lords, until the
list of guests read like Burkes Peerage.
Which justif1es a little gossip about one
or two of said titles. > - -. .'~
As to the father of the groom, who is
announced as the Chevalier de ScoVello;
just word. The boys who lived in De-
tro1t not so many years ago remember
him., Yes, he was native Of Detroit,
and his father was a doctor, In a small
way a(he may be yeti in a street whose
two ends were not on speaking terms.
His office was on the end which was not
recognized by the other. Eduardo de
Scovello was then known as Ed Scovel.
The boys spoke Of him more often as
"Old Ed Scovel,'' and even irreverently
as "Old Shovel" He was an easy-going,
rather good-looking chap, VINO liked to
sit on lumber piles, and loaf around the
corner drug store. He did not take to
business; no to, society, nor dress, nor
anything in particular and his father
thought he was something Of a nuisance.
But he could sing. He had most me-
lodlous voice, and he was in demand for
church choirs. Then he appeared in anna
teur operettas; then he began to take an
interest in his voice, and finally went to
New York, where he began to have teach
ers and also got a church position. IN
A prominent worker in the church was
a cousin of President Roosevelt. She was
known as "Piggie' Roosevelt. The lady.
was entranced with the voice Of the choir
singer. She took an interest in the boy
from Detroit, and the interest was not
lessened by his poverty. She was very
rich. So they were married and sailed
away for Europe.
Detroit had quite forgotten Ed Scovel
when he turned up one day in a big troupe
Of star opera performers. He was with
the Melba and De Reszke class. But De-
trOit did not recognize him under the
billing of Chevalier Eduardo de Scovello
Only a few of his old friends were let
In on the secret. They gave him a dinner
in one of the old-time 'hangouts,'' and
heard the story Of his residence In Italy
and his study with the finest masters Of
the voice which the country could pro-
duce. His whole time had been devoted
to music. He was q success.
The boys joshed him about the "Chev-
alier'' With q sober countenance he told
them ABOUT how it had been acquired. A
team Of horses da6hing madly down the
Champs Elysses-the wife OF the president
Of France, Madame THEIRS in the car
riage; Scovel to the rescue; horses

| sounded well, anyhow.
So the son Of Ed scovel and Piggie

a pretty straight American connection in

blood. and notwithstan nding those very
