rs JEALOUS OF JOE.
Balfour Chagrined by Chamberlain's
Great Popularity.

New York, June 3.-There Is no mis-
taking that Colonial Secretary Joseph
Chamberlain is now the dominant per-
sonality in the Unionist party, says a
London dispatch to The World. Arthur
Balfour could scarcely. conceal his chagrin
at the significant ovation given the former
when the Commons listened to the an
nouncement OF the Boer surrender
Still. on calm reflection, the ministerial
opinion as expressed in the lobby was
that the Beers had got virtually every
thing they demanded. and that terms ac-
corded them left little ground for acclaim
ing a British triumph.
The reason given for the Beers sur
render of independence is that they are
practically bankrupt. and even If they
could prolong the war for two years
more they still would be unable to re-
constitute their States from the con-
dition of ruin into which the devasta-
ton policy has landed them.
Great Britain now will provide the funds
for this reconstruction and the new sys-
tenn must inevitably lead to a federal
union of the South African State in which
the Dutch influence must predominant.
1t is felt, too, that all the rebels will
be amnested and that every franchise
disqualification cannot be maintained for
more than two years.

LITTLE CHANGE SHOWN
STRIKE OF THE MINERS BEING
WAGED QUIETLY.
Mitchell Says None Of His Men Has
Violated the Law and None
Will Do So-Minor
Collisions.

Wilkesbarre, Pa. June S.-The situation
in the Wyoming region today as far as
it relates to the engineers firemen and
orally, shows no change from that of
yesterday. Peace reigns throughout this
valley and all the collieries that had not
voluntarily closed down their pumps dur
ingpthe last ten days. continue 70 keep
their mines free from water.
There were few changes against the
men at starting this morning which were
generally in favor of the strikers. Some
of the companies. however. have re-
serve force in readiness to take the places
of any men who quit work. Several col
lierieS are said to be working short
handed and if many more men leave
PEELED to shut down and the mines
allowed to become flooded.
Reports are constantly coming In from
the surrounding region of petty violence
perpetrated principally by boys, but no
one has as yet been seriously hurt.
At Miners mill, short distance north
OF here, there was a gathering of strikers
headed by a fife and drum band last
night and this morning but the men did
nothing but march around the town.
They kept away from the colliaries which

President Mitchell tonight gave out the
following statement: Detailed reports
from all quarters of the anthracite field
indicate that the number Of engineers.
riremen and pumpmen who ceased work
yesterday was considerably increased to-
day and the probabilities are that it will
be further augmented tomorrow.
There has been no violations, Of the
law on the part of the strikers and our
predictions made last week that the mine
workers would be law abiding have been
more than verified by the events of yes
terday and today.
THE coal strike is remarkable In many
respects. Were it not for the fact that
the coal companies have a veritable army
of private guard and coal and iron police
employed. there would be no exterior
evidence that a great industrial struggle
was being waged.
I'VE are sure that the splendid conduct
of the men and boys who are engaged in
this great, silent and passive struggle for
at least a small share of our countrys
prosperity must commend itself to all
we'll disposed persons"
There were a number of minor coils

DIETRICH HAS A BILL.
Measure to Be Supported by Beet
Sugar Men.

Washington, June Ex-senator DIETRICH.
who stands with the beet sugar interests
in opposition to the % per cent reduction
on Cuban sugars today introduced a bill
on the subject which he thinks will be
accepted as a compromise measure. 1t
provides that the differential on refined
sugar shall be abolished. but that an
equal amount shall be added to the duty
on raw sugars. and then it gives Cuba
a Is per cent reduction from the increased
duty.
Senator Dietrich says that he has con-
suited the President with reference to
the terms of the bill and that it Is ac-
ceptable TO him. He also has assured
himself that it will be satisfactory to
the Senatorial friends of beet sugar.
The Senator says that his bill will
compel those who have been advocating
the Cuban reciprocity which would in
jure and retard the upbuilding of the
sugar industry In the United States to
declare themselves, whether they are in
terested or not in helping Cuba or help
ing the sugar trust Spectators and Gu
ban exploiters only.

SYMPATHY FORIRELAND
BoURKE COCHRAN sPEAKs IN
CHICAGO.
Tremendous Meeting to Protest
Against the Coercion Laws in
Force in Nine Counties Of
ireland.

Chicago, June "A meeting Of the Irish
Americans of Chicago at the auditorium
tonight to protest against the coercion
laws in force in nine counties OF Ireland
was perhaps the largest demonstration
of it's kind ever held In this city. Bourke
Cochran was the principal speaker and
when he began his address about 5000
persons Joined in the applause, that
greeted him. Crowds thronsed the axe
nues outside. disappointed at being un-
able to gain admission Mr.. Cochran
said in part:
Coercion as applied to the Irish peo-
pie is the exclusion of that people from
the exercise and enjoyment OF civilized
government. 1t Is the suspension OF the
ordinary law and 1t means the govern
ment of the people by extraordinary law
Now in Ireland the government accuses
an Irishman of some act which 1t may
consider In opposition to or criticism
of public measures. He Is tried. not be-
fore any imperial court. but before re-
movable NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. remov-
able by the government itself, so the ac-
cuser and the Judge practically are APP
pointed by the same forces. similarly
every other elementary law OF human
kind has been denied the Irish.
ireland Is the only country In which
the people own neither the land upon
which they live nor control the govern
nent under which they live. The Irish
question arises from the demand Of the
Irish to control both their people ana
their land, while the English government
denies the right and endeavors to stifie
the demand. 1t Is dual question.
alien ownership of the land aud
alien ownership of the government;
these ara the Irish grievances. The diner
ence is, In every other country the set
tiers have settled upon the soil OF wnicn
they had control, they had intermarried
with the people and from that intermar-
rage new governments were evolved; put
in ireland the owners of the soil never
lived on 1t and never saw it; but remain
and retain ownership by a sort of con-
fiscation. This alone is enough to destroy
Irish property. Up to the middle OF the
century Ireland led the world
in the shipping and raising of cattle
horses and other live stock and in wooden
manufacture. Up to this period, the own
ers of the soil lived on 1t and in good
time became more Irish than the Irish
themselves, but in William HIS time the
land was given over to England and the
English. The original owners were allow
ed to come back and settle on the lands
but only as tenants. The result was to
destroy their occupation of exporting live
stock and in due time the only occupa-
don open for the Irish was agriculture.
This time pursued and with only slight
announcement and under many restric-
lions. If a man improved the soil. his rent
was raised; if he refused to pay rent, he
was evicted. Thus it was in every other
instance
Mr.. Cochran contended that the Irish
have fully shown their industrial capac-
ity. In conclusion he pleaded for Ameri-
can sunnnrt for the Irish cause.

ness and Less to Yachts

London, June 3.-The annual meeting
of the company known as Upton, Limit

criticised, a shareholder, amid remarks
of approval. declaring that he did not
want to be bolstered up by one man or
by the recipientebf charity.
Sir Thomas replied by saying that 1T
was not too late for the shareholders TO
refuse the gift. but this offer produced
no takers, and eventually all the directors
were reelected and the meeting passed a
vote of thanks to Sir Thomas Upton.

MURDERER
Slayer Of Fritz Philip Breaks Jail and
Gets His Freedom.

~ o. .Fa..- SCSS 444S EAVCOVU1s II. r..r..
James O'Brien, who has been con-
fined in the county jail here for the
murder of Fritz Prillipp, awaiting
the setting of the district court, es-
capped yesterday afternoon and is still
at large.
He filed off two bars in the south
window on the east side of the jail,
so as to allow them to drop down out
of their sockets and then bent them
outward. In order to hide his work
he hung an old pair of trousers over
the broken bars and took "a hike for
parts unknown.
According to the statements of the
other prisoners he escaped about three
O'Clock and it was nearly five before
he was. missed. Sheriff St. Jacque
and a deputy started Immediately in
pursuit, taking an easterly course,
while posses were sent in other direc-
lions.
1t is quite likely that O'Brien was
assisted in escaping by outside parties
and by Davis, who is also in Jail with
him. A reward of 5000 has been
offered for his apprehension, but it is
not at all likely that anyone will be
able to claim it.-Wells County Free
