STRIKE IN TENNESSEE.
Trouble over Payment of Relief A.
sessments.

New York, Oct. AT the quarterly
meeting Of the directors of the Ten
nessee Coal and Iron Railroad COM
pany held here, the directors en-
dorsed the action of the officers of the
company in their refusal to accede TO
the demands of the striking miners N
the Alabama mines. President D. II.
Bacon Of the company said:
The strike now in progress at the
mines of the company is not founded
on any differences as to wages or
terms or conditions of employment,
but is entirely due to differences with
in the miners union, and should be Of
short duration.
"The trouble arose in this way. Some
Of the miners were willing to pay
dollar apiece a week for the support
If the striking anthracite miners and
some were not. The men who were
willing to pay the money were in
majority, and they made a demand
upon the officers of the company that
the men who would not pay up to the
union should either have the money
taken out of their wages or be dis
charged. The company declines to
do this and the strike is on.
The strike affects US to the extent
Of about a quarter Of our output.
About 5000 men are oEt, but we
have a large force of convicts at
work. Those men will not strike. We
hire them of the state, which examines
each man, rates him as physically able
to do so much work, and charges us
accordingly.
These convicts are well treated,
getting paid at the regular mining
scale of whatever coal they mine
above the amount the state rates for
each"
The quarterly dividend of two per
cent upon the preferred stock was
voted.

BOLD BURGLARS FolLED.
one of Five Desperadoes Killed and
Two Wounded.

Williamsport, Pa, Oct. 3.-Five
masked men and desperate burglars
made a bold attempt TO rob the safe
of the Montoursville Passenger Rail
way company early yesterday morn
ing.
In terrific battle with revolvers
which followed one of the desperadoes
was killed and two others wounded
by Engineer Alem BLY,, who was shot
twice by the robbers.
Shortly before o'clock, while En-
gineer BLY, was at work in the power
house Of the Montoursville Passenger
Railway company, he was startled by
a terrific crash, caused by the front
door being battered in with a heavy
plank
BLY, rushed to a desk in which was
his revolver, and as he turned to
face the intruders he was met with
fusllade of bullets from the revolvers
in the hands of five men, who had the
lower part of their faces covered with
handkeTchefs.
One of the shots struck Bly, in the
nip and another made a flesh wound
in the thigh. The wounds did not
disable him, however, and he levelled
his revolver and fired at one of the
burglars, who was several feet in ad-
vance of the others.
The bullet pierced the heart of the
desperate and he fell dead. The en-
gineer kept firing at the gang, who
kept up a continuous fire. Two of
them were wounded.
After his revolver had been emptied
BLY, rstreated and ran to a nearby
factory and aroused the watchman,
who sounded an alarm by blowing the
factory whistle. While BLY, was absent
the robbers dragged the body Of their
dead companion outside the building,
where they left it and fed. Up to a
late hour no trace of them had been
found.
The dead man has not been identi-
fed. He was feet 91s incehs tall,
weighed probably IT'S pounds and was
about S5 years old.
