A STATEMENT BY GOMPERS.
The President of the American fe"-
Grafton of Labor Talks OF
the Miners Strike.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Sept. 1s.-Presi-
dent Gompers of the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor, in statement Is
sued Wednesday, takes hopeful view
of the strike situation. The state
ment is as follows:
"At this time it is impossible to
say exactly when the strike VIII
terminate. but after careful inquiry
into the situation at the mines, am
of the opinion that the strike WIN
end BY agreement. The wage earn
ers and the general public are gen
erously contributing to the AID OF
the miners. 1t is essential that TINS
aid be extended and continued.
"If the manhood of the miners IS
to be maintained they must at least
have bread for their wives and little
ones, as well as for themselves. The
declared attitude of the presidents OF
the anthracite railroads has not ap-
parently changed. Despite this fact,
| am fully convinced that the strike
will end through agreement, with I'M
proved conditions for the miners and
the union maintained.

ton of Labor"

Bowed by the weight of centuries he

Upon his hoe and gazes on the ground.
The emptiness of ages in his face,
And on his back the burden OF the
world
Who made him dead to rapture and
despair,
A thing that grieves not and that

Stolid and stunned, brother to the OK 7
Who loosened and let down his brutal
jaw!
Whose was the hand that slanted back
his browY -.
Whose breath blew out the light within
his brain?
Is this the Thing the Lord God made
and gave
To nave dominion over the sea and

To trace the stars and search the
heaven for power;
To feel the passion OF Eternity

Can Be Made By Electricity Through
Valuable Discovery.
washington Cor. Brooklyn Eagle.)
The prospect of the manufacture of
diamonds by scientific means as con-
sidered 81 likely as to be predicted in
Government report. I. u. Martin,
an expert special agent of the Census
Office, has written long and very in
teresting report on the electrical in
dustries OF the United States, in
which he incidentally refers to the
attempts that have been made to pro-
duce diamonds artiicially. He recalls
the fact that Molssan, the Frenchman.
pushed the employment OF the electric
arc so far as to produce minute frag-
mentary diamonds in his furnaces.
Moissan also noted the production OF
graphite from a diamond heated N the
arc and from the similar treatment OF
sugar charcoal purified by chlorin and
of purified wood charcoal. I'm fact,
saws Mr.. Martin, sit was due to his
investigation in this field that he was
led to his celebrated observations on
the formation of diamonds by the sud
den cooling in mercury or lead OF
molten iron saturated with carbon.
Ous of all such work it was but natural
that fanciful speculations should arise
as to the possibility OF establishing
factories for the regular manufacture
of genuine diamonds at Niagara Faus,
where the cheap current and other
essentials would be available, but
nothing has resulted within the period
under consideration from these plausible
and sangunle theories. The fact
remains, however, that in our modern
electrical furnaces diamond dust has
been produced, ana the steps leading
to the manufacture of larger crystals
will be but sequential.
