MINE COMBINE AGAIN
This Time X Is TO Be Consur.
mated This Week. Big Mines
Only Going In.
YOUNG WOMAN ON THE WARPATH
AveDges Alleged Verbal Insults
Richmond To Be Coal Mer-
chant-State Notes.

indianapolis, Oct. 20.-A weIl-defincd
rumor is afioat in financial circles that
within this week q coal trust is TO
be launched in Indiana 1t will include
the leading mines of the state, the lit
tie fellows" being left to rustic for
themselves and the big operators being
allowed to take stock in the new trust
and be retained as officers of the cor
poration. One of the most prominent
coal operators in Indiana is authority
for the statement that John w. Gates
and a man prominent in the tin plate
trust have cash options on practically
all the mines of the state and that the
trust will be launched some time this
week. 1t will mean that the block
coal. which is used so largely in this
city, will be advanced in price.
Alleged Inside History.
1t is asserted that some of the deaf
ers Of the city already have received
notification of an advance but it has
not been attributed to the work of the
new trust. 1t will be remembered that
year ago Chicago syndicate was
formed with the idea of consolidating
Illinois and Indiana mines and that
the scheme fell through. 1t was not
known at that time and Is not known
now except to a few on the inside that
the syndicate went so far as to cause
one operator In the state to lose a $1O,-
600 annual contract because he re-
fused to come In. Others were pinched,
but at the last moment something hap
pened and the whole syndicate went
up in the air
Miners Are Not Affected.
The work has been carried on very
quietly for some time and if there is
no hitch in the proceedings every mine
In the state will soon be at the mercy
of the trust. The miners will not be
affected by the new plan. 1t is not
known just what the capitalization will
be, but the names of Gates and the
tin plate man are sufficient evidence
that there is coin enough behind the
organization to make it go. The Chi
cago capitalists who were interested
in the former syndicate are said to
have nothing to do with this combina-
ton.

The only menace to Republic
car success Is over-confdence
and the indifference that grows
out of the belief that the party
will win anyway. No RepubIi-
can can afford to take any
chances. II few thousand Re-
pubiicans in Indiana should
conclude that their votes are
not needed, and should stay at
home, the victory now so we'll
assured might be lost. The
only safe way to win a victory
is for every voter to 90 to the
polls and vote and work for the
success of his party. II defeat
comes, the stay-at-home voters
will be responsible for it.-Mid-

st. Paul, Oct 21.-The disposition
to be made CT Jim Younger's remains
has not yet been determined. The body
has been em6almed and will be kept
here until Mrs. Eta Rollins, of Dallas,
Tex, sister of the Younger brothers,
can be heard from. When alive Young
er frequently expressed the wish that
his body be cremated when he died.
This plan will be carried out The
body may be cremated here or taken
intact to Kansas City, Mo-, and there
cremated. The parents of the Young
ers and other deceased members of the
family. including Bob Younger, who
died in the state penitentiary, are
buried in cemetery near Kansas City,
Mo.
Cole Younger Can't Leave the State.
Ultimately jim Younger's mortal re-
mains will undoubtedly rest in the
family burial lot. 1t is not likely that
Cole Younger will be allowed to ac-
company his brothers body away from
here, because of the law governing
his parole. The parole forbids his
leaving the state, and the parole can
not be modified except at regular
meeting Of the board of pardons. The
board will not meet again until Nov
3. A special meeting can be called on
ten days notice, but 1t Is said the
parole cannot be extended to a par
don, If this course was desired, at q
special meeting.

YOUNG ALBANIAN HAS TRoUB- LES WITH HIS SWEETHEART IN MERIDIAN.

[ Meridian, Miss, February 2.-(Special.) Byron Mitchell, well-known young law student of the State University at Tusca- loosa, Ala, was discovered in an uncon- scious condition by the night clerk of the Grand Avenue hotel last night about 10 o'clock Mitchell had swallowed two drachms of opium which he had pur- chased at a local drug store a few hours previously, and had sat down by the of- flee stove to die. Night Clerk Johnson Immediately called for assistance, and when Drs. H. F. Tatum and R. l.. Turner reached young Mitchells side the latter was in an almost dying condition. By hard work the unfortunate young man was saved from the rash attempt made to take his own life.
 Mitchell had only about s1 35 on his person. with a few letters, which indi- cated that he had had a misunderstanding with his sweetheart, who was evidently a student in the Mobile Institute. He also had a round-trip ticket to Hattiesburg, Hiss.

Board of Trustees for MOnte- vaIIo Institute Called Together
MUST DEVELOP TIE LANDS
Meeting Will Be Held In Montgomery Friday, February 2s-captain Fay. lor's Trial Set for 29th-Much
 Curiosity About Evidence.

Montgom cry, Feb. 21.-(Special)-A special meeting of the board of trustees of the Girls Industrial School at Mon tevallo has been called by the Governor to convene in the executive chamber at the capitol Friday, February 2S.
 It was given out that the board was called for the purpose of determining some plan for utilizing the lands of the school. The school has received no &C., tual benefits from the land since they were granted by Congress some years ago. During the administration of Gov ernor Johnston he sold an option on the lands at s5 per acre to MT. Henry F. DeBardelaben, but Mir DeBardelaben failed to purchase the lands.
 It is reported that the building com- mitee of the board have contracted for more work than there are funds to meet from the legislative appropriation, and the trustees will attempt to meet the deficiency.
