DAY AFTER THE RIOT
 AT GLEN FALLS, \. Y.
The Town Is Quiet aud Guardei by
 the Militia.

Glens Falls, N. Y, October 5.-As d result of the renewed activity of the striking motormen of the Hudson Val ley Electric Railway company soldiers of the national guard are again guard ing the peace of this town, and, though today has seen no rioting, an uneasy feeling prevails. Militia are now pro tecting the power house and other prop erty of the company at Glens Falls. A squad is also guarding the bridge ac Sandy hill because of report that the canal bridge was to be blown up.
 The riotous mob which held posses sion of Glens Falls four hours last night was composed of sympathizers with the strikers, and the police were powerless against it. The riot was pre- cipitated by the arrest of man who made insulting remarks to one non- union employe, and each car passing through was an object of demonstra- tion. Car windows were smashed and a fusillade of bricks and stones were hurled at the cars. Conductor Currier of Brooklyn was so badly injured that he is in the hospital in a serious con

UNMASKED ROBBERS
 HOLD UP 4 COACH
Three Highwaymen Strip Rich We
 men of Jewels.

Goshen. N Y, October 5.-At 6 o'clock tonight the Pioneer coach, which has been running daily between War wick and Goshen for the summer, was held up by three masked highwaymen, mounted on horses, and the passengers robbed of their money and jewels. The passengers were Mrs. Frederick Web ster, Mrs. Hawley Webster, Mrs. J. A. Chamberlain. Mrs. Wilson Hart. Mrs. James Fuller and Clinton w. Wisner, all wealthy residents of Warwick.
 When the Pioneer reached a lonely spot near State Hill the three horse men dashed from a thicket at the roadside and discharged a volley from their revolvers at the party on the coach. Then one of the party caught the coach leaders and held them fast while the ether two mounted the coach and demanded from the whip, MT. Wisner the keys to the coach locker. While locking down the muzzle of revolver MT. Wisner surrendered the key and also all of his money, gold watch and jewels.
 In. the meantime the other highway men were helping themselves to the jewelry and ether valua bles possessed by the women. After securing every thing of value possessed by the coach ing party the highwaymen mounted their steeds and dashed away, dis charging their revolvers as a parting salute, leaving the guard and MT. Wis Ter bound bv the roadside and the women helpless from fright.

PRESIDENTS
 PEACE EFFORT
The Sunday Conference for
 Settlement of Strike
The Proceedings Have Not Been Made Public But It Is Certain That No Other Appeal Will Be Made to the Operators.

Washington, October 5.-In an earn est effort to expedite the adjustment of the coal strike problem another con ference over the situation was held at the White House today. No statement was given out of the conclusions reach ed and every participant absolutely re- fused to discuss the meeting. The con- ference was called for today, although Sunday, in view of the extraordinary importance to the American people of a speedy solution of the question.
 Beside the president there were pres ent Secretary of War Root. Secretary of the Navy Moody. Attorney General Knox, Postmaster General Payne and Carroll D. Wright, United States com missioner of labor. It is impossible to do more than draw the most general conclusions as to the nature of the pro- ceedings, based upon what preceded the meeting. The known facts are that the president has reached a conclusion as to nothing except to save a refusal from d further appeal to the coal oper- ators. and, therefore, has decided to lock for relief from the situation to the miners side
 He feels that he hardly can expect the miners to make a sacrifice of all their contentious without holding out at least a promise of some return. and the question before him is as to his ability to do this. He can pledge him. self to appeal to congress to examine into the justice of the miners com- plaints and remedy them so far as lies ] in the power of the legislative branch, aided by the earnest goodwill of the executive. He also can suggest to Governor Stone of Pennsylvania that 1 the Pennsylvania legislature likewise make inquiry, perhaps hastening the usual methods by calling an extra ses- sion. But these pledges will be given only Cn the condition that the men go at once into the mines and get out with all speed the coal for which the people are suffering. It is certain that thus far the president has not found single one of his constitutional advisers who could suggest any departure from this policy.
 Three hours were spent in consulta- tion today, which was none too long to put into form the two propositions. one
 to the miners organizations and the
 other to Governor Stone. The fact that
 Secretary Cortelyou was called on tC
 prepare one or more statements at the direction of the president was taken as
 an indication that messag ges were sent
 out. The reticence of all parties is ex.
 plainable, perhaps, by the desire t.
 avoid the discourtesy of publishing th' nature of these before they are received by the persons to whom they are ad dressed. That the parties to the con-
 ference feel that they have accom-
 plished something was made evident h,
 the expressed belief of one of the con ferees that the miners would soon b, again at work.

STEP BY STEP.
Coffee Gets in It's Fine Woik.

Watch coffee drinkers and observe that practically every one Of them has some form of incipient or fixed disease.
 Mrs. F. N. Wright, of San Francisco, Cal, tells her experience: "I was 20 years cid before I ever knew the taste of coffee and before I commenced drinking it, never was troubled in the least with constipation, but after drinking coffee for one year I became constipated to such a degree that had to resort to drugs to overcome it.
 After three years drinking coffee, I had cultivated chronic state of con- stipation and other annoying symptoms became manifest. The first thing in the morning, I had a headache come on, a feeling of nausea, and these symptoms would persist until l had drunk Q quantity of coffee. At first l did not associat te these symptoms with the habit of coffee drinking. I thought my system must be run down, and I felt glad that coffee, instead of pre- scribed drugs would relieve the weak ness. Like many people, I did not req son from cause to effect.
 About this time I had an elderly nurse in my employ who complained every morning of similar symptoms and when I suggested mineral water etc, tC her for her biliousness. she said Nothing in the world but my coffee will relieve me, when I feel so badly My husband began to complain, if he did not get his coffee at a certain time of queer sensations in the stomach and head. I became alarmed at these CO., incidenCes, and came to the conclusion that coffee had as strong held on us as vhiskey has with the veriest drunk ard. About this time, I was taken i'll with inflammatOry rheumatism, and the two doctors who attended me, told me I would have to stop drinking cof- fee or remain a cripple, as they could not treat me ii I persisted in using 9 drug stronger than the drug I needed.
 My husband and I agreed t try an experiment and commenced the use of Postum Food Coffee. The effect was marvellous and taught us some Valu- able truths. and now We would not touch a cup of coffee for anything. His business demands the utmost concen- traticn of brain force continuously He now locks like new man; he has had no headaches or bilious attacks for some months, and digests all his food without any distress. I feel sure that he would have been a wreck if he had kept on with cCffec.
 After 1 began using Postum, l soon recovered from my attack of rheuma- tism. and in a few weeks I could walk about again. I am no longer troubled with constipation. headaches, nausea or rheumatism. I firmly believe that the continued use of coffee becomes in time as hurtful to the human system as alcoholic stimulants. I know my case and my husbands both demon- strate this clearly

a body of competent men set to the task for the express purpose Of ascer- taining how to advance the interests of the country. as related to the great est good to the greatest number of its citizenship.
 Today :t is impossible for the average man to have more than a fragmentary understanding of the many complex questions pertaining to our tariff.
 70: necessity. d commission must be sustained by one of the two great po- litical parties. otherwise its recOm- mendations will never be put in force
 T take it for grant that no intell- gent man believes can or will relegate it's authority over legislation cn this subject to a commission. but it might with Scod judgment establish such a body and when established consider it's recommendations and act upon them to the benefit of the best interests of the country.
 More and more the tariff question will become one of revenue and finance. but We must not forget CT ignore the fact that our first duty is to the wage eaTners of this country. and they must ! be protected from the competition with the products of other countries where labor struggles for an existence. The world pays tribute. whether it will CT TO, to that country that can raise and convert the west raw mater ial. To raise and not convert raw ma terial is to waste opportunity, and in the final analysis will result in impov- crishment. As rapidly as possible this ! country should prepare to convert its ! raw material and export manuiac- tured product. Such a condition inn plies changes 90 radical and so i'm ] portant, only those who can give the subject the utmost attention. will be ! come fully Cogaizant of the require ments Of the hours or the needs cf the country.
 ! No one should object to reciprocity. when limited tc svch commodities cs are not produced by both of the couu- i tries making the exchange. but recip- rocity that proposes to forward one

 sion should save us from. and anything
 that takes the subject out of the pO- litical discussion of national cam

Paris, October 5.-The remains of Emile Zola were laid to rest today with simple but impressive ceremonies. It was such a funeral as ZCla himself would have wished, without pomp, but with serried ranks of thousands of workingmen. Many accompanied by their wives sorrowfully marched be- hind the coffin. Municipal guards lined the route, but except a company of in fantry which rendered military hOcOrs tc the body they were guardians of or der and not participants in the cere- mony.

FORTUNE FROM FEES
 OF ELOPING LOVERS
Christopher Geist Who Died Saturday
 Left $50,OOO

Philadelphia, October 5.-Christopher Geist, who died in Camden on Satur- day leaving something more than $5O,- eco, owned his fortune to the fact that other people got married.
 When Camden was Philadelphia's Gretna Green some years ago it was a source of profit, not only to clergymen. but 10 cab drivers as well. and it was in those days that Geist flourished as one of the latter guild.
 No marriage licenses were required in the city across the river then. and ey- cry elOping couple. not only from Phila- delphia, but from many other cities went there to have the knot tied. There were ministers who made a speciality of catering to this kind of trade" and an army of hackmen was always in waiting at the ferry to receive the lov- CTS.
 Tn many cases the hackmen had an understanding with certain of the min isters by which they received a fee for driving strangers to them, and, of course, "cabby' always came in for a liberal fare from the happy bridegroom. To this source Geist probably owed his comfortable fortune. which was re- markedly large for man of his occu- patton.
 He lived at 139 Arch street, Camden. and came near dying about twenty-five years ago. in which case he would not have left a fortune, since the marriage industry there began much later. Al
 that time he was attacked with small pox and apparently died. The body was i prepared for burial, and was about tc
 be placed in the cGsket, when Geist re-
 vived.

Washington. October 5.-The Augrrr record Of the foreign ,,..-;ncrce O. the United States is encouraging. The fig ures of the treasury bureau of statis- tics show that exports of manufactures have increased more than S2O0O,OOJ as compared with August of last year, and about twelve million dollars in the eight months ending with August, 1902, as compared with the corresponding eight months of the preceding year. Meantime manufa cturers have in creased their imports of material for use in manufacturing, the value of i'm
 ports of articles in a crude condition which enter into the various processes oi domestic industry having increased two million dollars in August. 1902, over August, 1901, and for the eight months show an increase Of twenty eight mil lion dollars over the same period of last year; while articles wholly or partially manufactured for use in manufactur- ing show an increase Of five million dollars in the eight months. making the total increase in impOrtatiOns of man ufaCturers' materials in the eight months ending with August thirty three million dollars, as compared with the corresponding eight months of the preceding year Of the other classes of imports, manufactures and luxuries show an increase of nineteen million dollars, while ;codstuffs show q de- crease of seventeen millions, comparing three months of 1902 with the cores bonding months of 1901 The decrease in the importation of foodstuffs is in sugar, which alcne shows a decrease of about twcnty-fOur million dollars in impOrtations in the eight months end inG with August, thus indicating that in ether classes of foodstuGs there has been a net increase, since the total re- duCtion in that class is but seventeen million dollars. This reduction Of twcnty-fcur million dollars in the value of sugar is largely due to the reduction of cost in foreign markets. the total quantity O; sugar imported being 2.SS4,- 910.219 pounds in the eight months end ing with August, 1902. against 2.SCS,- 226, ,2SS pounds in the corresponding months of last year. while the value O! sugar imports during the eight months of the present year is S3S. .S7SS72, against S62.554921 in the eight months of last year. the average value per pound be
