THREE FOREIGN MINERS
DETAINED IN PHILADELPHIA
Lured From Wales by
Promise of Good Wages
in Soft Coal Fields

Philadelphia, Oct 20. ~ Twenty
eight persons. one Of them woman,
comprise the party of Welsh miners
who are detained in this city on sus-
picion Of being contract laborers. They
arrived on the steamship Haverford
from Liverpool The entire party is
detained at the international Hotel,
near the American line piers Officers
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea, representatives Of which organize
ton are here, are largely responsible
for the detention Of the party. Miners
employed at Ellsworth and other por-
tons of Western Pennsylvania are
said to have first discovered the i'm
portation Of Welsh miners. and mott.
fed the officers of their union. who,
in turn gave their information to the
government.
All of the detained men feel they
have been duped, and say they will
be glad to return to Wales and stand
the expense Of the trip. Several of
the detained miners assert that hun
dreds of men, lured on by the prom
Use Of good wages. have already gone
to the soft coal fields. and that more
are on their way to this country.

means that our chances Of an appro-

The article further states that Con-
eressman Ball secured an appropria-
ton Of only $4,000. This is a mistake;
the amount was $4,000 half Of which

an enormous influence for the Delaware

OPINION
What The Jersey Act is For.

From the Philadelphia Press.
The dummy directors who were used
by the promoters OF The Shipbuilding
Trust TO fleece investors shocN the public.
But this Is just what the New Jersey
corporation act is for. IL rs drawn to
permit these things it is selected ia-
cause it does permit them. New Jersey
corporations are thick because dummy
directors can be used under the New
Jersey act TO thimhllng the market wlth
bogus securities and oNtravagant over
capitalization.
Pennsylvania has good corporation
act. 1t makes directors responsible. These
frauds IN the shlpbuildlng Trust would

son why our steel plants and our trolleys,
our gas works and our sugar rehnerieH.
our shipyards and our mines, are being
organized under an act under which a
director. dummy or not, can do anything
and not be responsible.
Pennsylvania oug'hs by a special fran.
chise tax. 20 exclude AN corporations or
ganized under act like that of New Jer-
sey, which neither protect investors nor
make directors responsible for their acts.

ExPIATIoN.

In conversation yesterday promi-
nent New Castle farmer related an ex-
perience Of one Of his nelghbors. This
man had u very desirable farm, which
for some reason he wished to sell. HC
decided that he could best reach the
class Of customers he was seeking by
placing 1t IN the hands Of a Philadel-
phia agent-which he did. Recently
having heard nothing from the man he
went to Philadelphia to ask for partic-
ulars. lie asked the agent if he hadn't
had any inquiries, and was told that
he had received many. but that when
they found that the property is located
In New Castle county, Delaware. they
refused to consider Il.
But why did they object to its be-
Ing located there?" asked the owner.
Because Of the recent occurrences
and the general unsettled condition i'm
your State" was the reply
It may be said that such reasons are
trivial and in-founded, but it sumces
that they were made, and doubtless in
that instance prevented the sale OF a
desirable property. one would have
to be obtuse indeed, not to see the
n,3i.d coniained IN the above. and Il
brings the penalty for law breaking
down to a business proposition, and as
such it win be appreciated by many
who were never impressed by its ethi-
cal aspect.
Now we have profound respect for
the innate virtue Of our people, bur for
the past dozen years they have toler-
ated disregard for law and decency
that is amazing, and this laxtty culmi-
mated recently in a sickenpg spectacle
Of burning human being at the stake
BY every such act the ,&tate advertise
itself Our inteIigemce sobriety anc
public spirit are not themes for news
lppper stnriea<'6ut great crimes are re
ported and printed in every newspape
in the country and from these th'
world forms its judgments. Doubtless
there are persons who hesitate TO make
their homes IN Delaware, to rear theil
3 children In a community where burn
ings at the stake are possible. or course
their conclusions are ill-founded anc
do us great injustice. but we can ex-
peot nothing else.
: wo may lay aside the ethlcalaspect o
the case and find that for business rea.
sons alone that community which rig.
idly preserves order. which suppresse
political crime and upholds the courts
is wisest. Who. for instance woul'
want TO settle with his family in tn
feud districts Of Kentucky or wha
a newspaper editor would like TO setu
IN South Carolina? II is equally prob
able that persons strongly opposed Z
a lynchinss VIII avoid New Castle coun
, ty. OF course there is little likelihoo
y that the crime Of lynohing win soon b
e repeated for since that attack q
S frenzy many have been sobered at tn

G public sentiment would permit n repe

Their duty consists Of keeping th9

capacity as the Pullman porter served
those who ride in parlor and sleepind

The PENNSYLVANIA Railroad Company
has boon improving its lines at a cost
that is enormous. and hats given out
contracts calling for many millions
more. But in each Of them has been
inserted clause giving tina company
the right TO stop work at any time.
They have taken advantage Of this pro-
vision recently in numerous instances,
which means the delaying Of projects
that would have put into circulation
many millions Of dollars. The reason
given is the prevalence OF labor trou-
bles, which affects freights and cuts
down the earnings Of the system. This
is another lesson for organized labor.

Shows Some OF the 3, q u Historie

The October number Book of the
Royal Blue" published by the passen-
ger department of the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad. commences its seventh
volume, or seventy third number. In
the six years of its existence il has
made a place OF its own as a magazine
of travel and literature. and has found
its way into all the principal clubs and
public libraries of the country and
built up a circulation Of inestimable
value. From a historical point of view
it has no rival, and its general litera-
ture is of the best and lasting quality.
The Baltimore e Ohio Railroad offers
a wide field from both a historical and
scenic sense, travelling a territory which
is rich i'm historic lore, from the French
and Indian to the Civil War. The care
full handling of the countless incidents
in complete detail, affords most inter-
esting reading This Is particularly
evidenced in the current number in
the sketches on Frederick OF Star

Springs, the fashionable resort Of the
Washing.ons and Fairfaxes; and
Bladensburg, the famous dueling
ground of the Revolution. An ad-
vanced sketch of the new railway sta
tion at the National Capital conveys
the first ideas Of what this magnificent
structure is to be; and the information
concerning the progress of the Worlds
