TO The BITTER END
Third Week of Coal strlkeFinds
Both Sides Firm.

TRINIDAD. Col, Nov. 22.-The be-
ginning of the third week of the coal
strike in the southern fields finds both
sides determined to fight to the end.
1t is the intention ofsthe United Mine
Workers to put up a strong fight
against the application for temporary
injunction sought by the Victor Fuel
company, and set for hearing on the
25th. Trouble has broken out in the
ranks of the strikers. 1t leaked out
today that M. Grant Hamilton, of the
American Federation of Labor. was
here last Wednesday and got the con-
sent of the strike leaders for a settle
ment of the strike in the Colorado coal
fields.
He telegraphed this information, to-
gether with the information that he
would leave for Denver that day at
noon accompanied by Chris Evans and
J. j. Ream, who represent John Mitch
ell in the conduct of the strike. Moth
err Jones and President Powells, of
District No. 10, United Mine Workers,
followed on the next train and went
to Louisville, where they undid all that
Mr.. Hamilton had accomplished.
A telegram had been received by one
of the officials of District No. Is, United
Mine Workers, from John. Mitchell, de-
manding by what right they had been
interfering with the settlement of the
strike in the northern fields and order
ing them to attend strictly to the
strike in Southern Colorado.

HARD COAL is FOUND
IN STEARNS COUNTY
Well Digger Encounters FourFoot
Vein Near Cold Spring.

Special to The Globe.
DULUTH, Mimi, Nov. 22.-News
reached here today of hard coal find
in Stearns county, which is said to be
of more Importance than any other of
the recent discoveries which have been
made recently in Northern Minnesota.
Victor Stern, a well digger who was
employed in sinking a we'll on the farm
of Michael Schreifels, six miles south
of Cold Spring, Mimi, encountered a
vein of coal twenty-eight feet below
the surface. Drill holes, which were
put through to test it, disclosed that
the vein was four feet thick Samples
Of the coal We're taken to Cold Spring
and put to tests, demonstrating that
it was anthracite of an excellent quail
ity.
The discovery has caused consid-
cradle excitement among the people in
the vicinity of Shreifels' farm, and
many of them are preparing to sink
shafts on their own premises. Men
who are interested in the project will
make explorations in the vicinity of
the find in an effort to ascertain the
extent of the coal bed which has been
uncovered.

PHILADELPHIA IN
HANDS OF CRAFTfRS
Millions of Loot Said to Be
Concealed In Big Loan
Bill.
Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. 22.-
This city is confronted today with a
$5,O00,000 theft. Only the most heroic
measures on the part of the graft-rid-
den people can stay the hand of the
plunderers. The plot to loot the city
treasury of this vast sum is concealed
in the $25000,000 loan bill that is to be
railroaded through the councils and If
necessary passed over the veto OF
Mayor Weaver.
tits learned that If the loan bill goes
one-fifth of the $25,0O0,000 will fall
into the pockets of the gang OF
"grafters." Indeed, there are many
well informed men in the city who be-
Heve that the corrupt machine will
never stop at theft ofF$5, 100000, but
will pocket no less than double that
amount.
Thomas L. Hicks, former postmaster
of Philadelphia, thinks that it is a
modest estimate to place the figures OF
the expected loot at $5,00e,000.
''The $25,O00,000 loan bill will be
forced down the throats of the tax
payers next February said Mr.. Hicks
today, "and in that iniauitous cam
paign of loot the machine will employ
$4,000 fraudulent woes. The real pur-
pose of the measure Is to tie the hands
of Mayor Weaver so that he will be
powerless to save the treasury from
municipal plunderers.
THE city council is ruled completely
by the machine. Nearly every mem
Der wears a collar and meekly does its
bidding"

MINERS UNION
ACCUSED Of MURDER
Operators Declare Federation
Arranged Internal Ma.
chine That Killed Two.

CRIPPLE CREEK, Col, Nov. 22.-
Sheriff Robertson, after investigating
conditions in the sixth level Of
the Vindicator mine, where Supt.
perintendent Charles Mccormack and
Shaft Boss Beck were killed yesterday
by an explosion, comedies with the
statement of the officials of the COM
pany that deliberate attempt had
been made to wreck the shaft with
dynamite.
The executive committee Of the
Mine Owners and Operators assOcia-
ton has offered q reward Of $4,000 for
evidence leading to the arrest and con-
viction of the perpetrators. In a pub
lished statement, the committee says:
''The killing of Supt. Mccormack and
Melvin Beck was one Of the most dia-
bolica1 crimes that ever darkened the
annals of Colorado and is another step
in the trail Of blood which has been
made by the Western Federation of
Miners in this state.
"The time has passed for selecting
fine terms in which to speak of these
matters, and we do not hesitate to say
that this crime was devised and exc
cuted by the inner circle of this or
ganization.
"This statement is made only after a
careful investigation of the facts which
show conclusively that these men met
their death through a so/ame so cum
ningly devised and carefully executed
as to tax the ingenuity of the most eX-
perienced criminal.
"Of late, the district has been filling
up with the class of men who openly
boast of what they propose to do. Not
a single circumstance surrounding this
crime is compatible with the theory
of accident and with any other theory
than that of premeditated murder"
The district executive committee of
the Western Federation of Miners
characterizes the explosion as a Ia
mentable. accident regretted by all, y
and adds:
"But prejudiced individuals, who
really know nothing what they talk
about have already passed judgment
and denounce It as a cold blooded muir
der. Experiences teaches, however,
that the people are not above making
capital out of any public misfortune" +"
Charles Mccormack, superintendent,
ed yesterday by ali explosion in the Vim
and Melvin II. Beck, a miner, were kill
ed today by an explosion in the Vim
dicator mine. officers of the Vindicator
Mining company assert that the eXplo-
sion was caused by an Internal ma
chine, and 400 militiamen have been
placed on guard around the company's
properties.

Tonight's meeting was to consider
this ultimatum and the result was a
refusal to comply with the demand.
President Shea advised the teamsters
against antagonizing the employers, but
his words went unheeded and the de-
cision to ignore the ultimatum of the
employers was almost unanimous
1t was also decided to call strike of
the teamsters employed by the r. III.

been making deliveries to the Chicago
City railway. This action, together
with the stand taken on the ultimatum
of the employers, it is believed. may
result in a general lockout or strike of
the 10000 union teamsters employed
throughout the city.
The employers will hold a meeting
tomorrow to decide on what action will
be taken. While none of them would
discuss the matter tonight, still the
impression was given out that the

DOWIE TO USE SHIPS FEARS THE MINERS
Will Use Boats in Next New
York Invasion.

CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-John Alexander
Dowie has decided to make his next in
vasion Of New York in ships. He is
planning to embark the hosts of Zion
at Zion City in 1905 and sail to battle
with sin in Gotham. He plans to an
chor his ships in North river and make
his headquarters with the fleet while
preaching the doctrines of Zion.
The announcement of his plan was
made by Dowie yesterday in his ad-
dresses to the mercantile departments
of the city. He was making tour
of the different departments and CIV
ing his farewell advice to his employees
before starting on his trip around the
world in January.
Dowie admitted the New York trip
had not been as productive as he ex-
pected and stated that the expenses
were far above what he had counted
upon. He has figured matters down
so that he can take every one of his
Zion followers to New York In 1913
by boat and the expense will be far
less than the recent trip. He figures
that it will take ten ships, and he said
he will start at once to negotiate 1or
the lease of vessels adequate to carry
all who want to go.
Dowie's plan is have all the ships
anchor in Zion City harbor, which he
says will be built, and start from there
up the great lakes, through the ST.
Lawrence, and by sea to New York.
He said every department in Zion will
be closed for this crusade and he will
take the entire printing establishment
force along in order that he may issue
a. daily paper in New York.
In his talks today the general over
seer admitted that he was in the worst
financial crisis in his life, but he urged
his employees to stand by him until my
ship comes in," and then he would give
them raises In salaries. He said he
wished they would all remain even

CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-The teamsters
have become more deeply involved than
ever in the strike of the street car men.
AT meeting tonight of representatives
of all the locals of the union in Chi
cago the stand taken last week, when
the drivers employed by the Chicago
City railway were ordered on strike in
sympathy with the trainmen and all
teamsters belonging to the union were
notified to cease deliveries to the plants
of the traction company, was approved.
When the order was first issued it
was declared by the associating team
ing interests of the city to be in di-
rect violation of contracts, and an ul-
timatum was presented yesterday to
Cornelius Shea, president of the Inter-
national Brotherhood of Teamsters,
demanding that the order be rescinded
or the employers would abrogate every
contract existing between them and the
teamSters' unions.

GEN. SALAZAR IS TO

Former Commander of the Colombian Forces Declares

PANAMA, Nov. 22-Gen. Victor Sal

ment of Panama and who during the
last revolution was supreme command
er of all the Colombian forces on the
isthmus, has been requested to give his
opinion concerning the present trend
of affairs on the isthmus, and tele-
graphs as follows from Palmiria, in
the department of Cauca:

ment and offensive to the national dig
Victor Salazar.
Since 1902, when Admiral Casey re-
fused to permit transportation of Co.
lombian troops on the Panama rail-
road, Gen. Salazar has entertained
bitter dislike for the people of the
United States. At that time he cabled
a sensational protest to the world
against the action of Admiral Casey.
Gen. Salazar Is most influential
among the younger element of the Co.
lobmians. He is courageous and en-
ergetic, but of a Quixotic nature and
probably believes that his statement
that an army of 100000 is being orr
ganiZed will stun the people OF the
new republic.
Ell Duende, in it's last nights edition,
says: 1.-THE Panamans alone do not
fear the Colombians, but they fear
them less now that they are assured of
the aid Of their Yankee brothers"

The rebel position was attacked in
the flank by the American troops, who
occupied the town and inflicted loss
of fifty killed on the Moros. Hassen,

rest of the Moros went into the swamps,
out of which they were driven on Nov.
16, leaving seventy-six dead behind
them. On Nov. IL the American forces
renewed the attack on the remaining
Moros, of whom forty more were killed.
The rebel forces have been literally
destroyed by these operations by Gen.
Wood, who says the indications are
that there will be no extension of the
uprising, which was handled without
difficulty.
On Nov. Is Gen. Wood started on an

ceived as to the result Of this move

BUTTE, Mont, Nov. 22-Formerly
a widow with an income amounting to
q mere pittance, Mrs. George Tong has
sprang into a fortune through the dis
covery of very rich lead of gold and
silver The ore streak is from seven
to eight feet in width and is as rich
as any ore to be found In Butte. The
mine is now yielding a monthly profit
of $4,000, and with an increased force
Of men the revenues will be larger.
There is a pathetic tinge to the
story. It shows that all bankers and
capitalists are not heartless, and in
stead of losing her property by the
foreclosure of mortgage, she retains
1t, and has a fortune in sight.
When George H. Tong passed away
he left his widow an estate consisting
mostly of mining property. all of which
was under mortgage to the State Saw
ings bank of this city Some two years
ago c. w. Ellingwood wanted a lease
on the Goldsmith mine. He had made
a stake and dropped. The State Saw

cashier, gave him lease on the prop

Tong agreed to the lease, which was
given verbally and without any time
limit. 1t could be shut off any time
Ellingwood struggled away on the
mine, cross-cutting in all directions,
and there were times when his capital
was so exhausted that he could not
meet his pay roll when it was due.
However, his men stuck by him, hav-
ing confidence that he would make
good. About two months ago he was
rewarded by striking a rich body of
ore, which now gives every Indication
of being continuous, and is being
stopped from the 150-foot level upward.
A few days ago Cashier Hodgens
sent for Mrs. Tong. The widow re-
sponded She knew the mine was do
ing well. and she expected that her
banker desired to inform her that there
were several hundred dollars in the
bank to her credit to apply on the
debt Of the estate. When she was no.
titled that there were $4,000 to her
credit, the stroke of good fortune nearly
oVercame the woman.
The question of a lease was then
brought up. Mrs. Tong said that, in
asmuch as Mr.. Ellingwood has spent so
much money and time in developing
the mine and retrieving their fortunes,
he could have a lease on the property
as long as he liked.

Utah Sheriff Asks Governor for

Sheriff Wilcox, of Carbon county, has
appealed to Gov. Wells to call out the
state troops to protect the coal mine
districts of his county, which are in
cluded in the recent strike order is
sued by the Mine Workers Union of
America. In his telegram to the gov
ernor, Sheriff Wilcox says:
"The local police authorities and
deputy sheriffs are not sufficient and
are powerless to cope with the lawless-
ness and protect life and property and
maintain law and order.
"My resources are exhausted and
therefore believe it my duty to call
on you, as governor of the state, for
aid and assistance at Scofield, Castle
Gate and Sunnyside."
Sheriff Wilcox says he has already
arrested several parties who were dis
charging firearms for the purpose OF
intimidating men who wished to work,
and reports that at Scofield men have
been assaulted and threatened with
death If they persisted in working
against the strike agitators.

Gov. Wells has received a report
from State Coal Mine Inspector
Thomas indicating that many more
miners are on strike than has pre-
viously been reported.
Mr.. Thomas says that at Sunnyside
less than 100 men out of $50 are at
work. At Castle Gate only twenty
for men are at work. The main point
of difference between the miners and
their employers Is recognition of the
union, and this the coal companies
positively refuse to consider. The state
board of arbitration has offered its
services in settling the differences.
