A Saloon Blown un.

Mahanoy City, Nov. 24.-The most
destructive dynamite outrage that has
occurred in the coal regions since the
strike began was perpetrated here at
o'clock yesterday morning. The dy-
Mantle, with fuse attached, was placed
on the bar of the saloon of Christie
pher Portland. The front part of the
building was blown across the street
and the adjoining buildings on either
side were badly wrecked. Windows
were broken in every house in the
square. Portland and the other mem
bers of the family were sleeping on
the third floor and escaped without
serious injury, although all were
thrown from their beds. Portland's
two sons are non-union men and
worked during the strike.

warrants for all the biggest and the
latest turkeys the barnyards have
been able to produce in the past sum-
mer, let grandfather and grandmother
and all the children and the grandchll-
dren meet again in the old homestead.
1t will not be very long before such
gatherings will be an impossibility. In
q few years the chief magnets that
now draw the children together at
Thanksgiving will be gone. Then, as
you meet about the great, big roasted
turkey, which is the symbol OF a
Thanksgiving feast, l not only want
you to cut the best and the tenderest
slices for your mother and father and
for your wife, but 1 also want you to
be sure not to forget to cut off a large
part of that turkey for the poor. There
will be many people next Thursday
morning who will have nothing to eat
except the plainest kind of food unless
the Christian people, out of their album
dance, are ready to help them.
Then next Thanksgiving day after
you have helped everybody all round
and after you have thanked God for
all your many blessings, and after you
have also worshiped in Gods sanctu-
airy, in spirit as your pastor, and as a
privileged guest, l want to come into
your dining room. And, though you
may give different parts of the turkey
| to the different members of your fam
| lily, want you to save one part for me.

/ you there ! want you to take hold of
one side of that wishbOne and let me
take hold of the other. Then as | pull
and break the wishbone and should

me make this wish: May the many
blessings which God has showereC
upon you during the last twelve months
soften your heart in gratitude to him
May the vacant chairs in your dining
room teach you that your earthly time
Is to be very short. Therefore, ma!

And in the earthly years that are lef

INDEPENDENTS PROTEST
Settlement Plan Would "Perpetuat'
the Injustice Penetrated"

Settlement Plan Would "Peroetuate
the Injustice Perpetrated."
New York, Nov. ga serious hitch
occurred yesterday in the plans for a
settlement of the coal controversy by
conference between the coal operators
and the miners union. At a meeting
between the presidents of the coal
roads and a large number of independ-
emit operators a strong protest was en-
tered by the latter against treating
directly with the miners. An invita-
ton to meet Mr.. Mitchell at Washing
ton on Friday was declined perempto-
rily, and it was agreed unanimously
that, in the judgment of the operators,
it was best for the present to go on
with the hearing before the commits
sion.
The following statement was given
out by c. D. Simpson, representing the
| independent operators:

NIessrs. Baer, Thomas, Truesdale, Oily

Gentlemen: The individual coal oper-
ators whose product is carried over

railroads, having learned that efforts
are being made to effect a settlement
of the questions now before the an
thracite coal strike commission, of
which the individual coal operators
have been made a party at the re
quest of the commission, beg leave
respectfully to enter their vigorous
protest against any such settlement
to be made at this time, and set forth
the following among many reasons:
I've believe that such a settle
ment at this time and upon the basi!
suggested would forever establish thu

perpetrated by the United Mine Worl

SILVER GOING DOWN
Requires s2.s5 to Buy One American
Gold Dollar.

Mexico City, Nov. 26.-The premium
on New York exchange continues to
advance and now is 1856; that is, two
dollars and eighty-fve cents in silver
are required to buy one American gold
dollar. The large farmers in the in
terror and planters throughout the
country say they do not care if the
dollar falls to thirty cents, as only the
city merchants and importers want
gold. They urge that the deprecated
silver keeps the dollars in the coun-
try and makes business good.
Importers take another view, and
are generally refusing to make prices
on machinery. supplies, ETC., except in
gold. Bankers realize that payments
coming due will be made in dollars
worth considerably less than when
the money was loaned.
