Quotes from the Anthracite
Decision.

Oyster Bay, Aug. 81. = President
Roosevelt has made applicable to all
departments OF the government service
the principle he enunciated at the time
he reinstated William A. Miller to the
position in tie government printing Of
fee from which Miller had been dis
missed because of disagreement with
the bookbinders' union. The president
has plainly stated to the members of
his cabinet that that principle is to ''in-
dictate the policy of the president" in
similar cases. The president has au-
thorized the publication of letter
which was sent to each member Of his
cabinet on July % The letter was
signed by Barnes, the the acting Sec
rotary to the president and is as fol-
lows:
As an Indication OF Policy.
"My Dear Sir: The president directs
me to send you herewith for your in
formation copies of two letters sent to
Secretary Cortelyou with reference to
the government printing Office, which
define the attitude of the administra-
ton in connection with the subject
discussed They are sent you for your
Information and guidance, as they in
Iicate the policy of the president in
this matter"
Uncle Sans Rules Come First.
The letters TO Secretary Cortelyou
were written on July - and IA. The
salient sentence Of the first letter was:
There is no objection to the employees
of the government printing office con-
stituting themselves into union if
they so desire, but no rules or resOlu-
| tons of that union can be permitted
to override the laws Of the United
! States. which it is my sworn duty to
| enforce"
Adopts the Anthracite Decision.
In the letter of the 18th the presi-
cite strike commission regarding the

son shall be refused employment or in

| count of membership or nOn-member-

The coroner's jury in the case of w. L.
Cotter rendered verdict of murder against
all the convicts who escaped. The inquest
was held at Folsom prison.
A report was received at Placerville this
evening to the effect that eight convicts
were seen making their way northward
along Greenwood creek towards the town
of Greenwood, where it is probable raid
will be made by the fugitives tonight as
it is known they are very short of pro-
visions. Guard Mcdonald, of Folsom, who
is in this vicinity with eleven other guards
from the penitentiary, is of the opinion that
the escaped prisoners are trying TO get into
the country north of Greenwood, some sec
tions of which are admirably suited for
hiding and defense purposes. Posses are
now in. pursuit and the residents of Green
wood have been warned of the direction
taken by the convicts and it is reported
that a defense party will be organized at
once to protect the town.

EVANSVILLE, Ind, July 2S.-Four iso-
lated cases of attack on negroes by whites
last night were reported to the police to-
day and arrests are expected to follow.
Whether the attacks were the result of petty
malice or a spirit of dare deviltry, or
whether they are a recurrent outbreak of
feeling against the colored race has not been
ascertained. The homes of four colored peo-
pie were attacked, windows and doors were
smashed and in two instances the occu-
pants were driven away and had to abandon
their homes for the night. Monroe Growder,
colored. while his way home about II
ID. m, was attacked by three white men.
After a struggle he escaped from the trio,
none of whom he recognized. 1t is not be-
lieved there will be another outbreak, but
there is much feeling between whites and
blacks in several quarters of the city.

One of the Prisoners Who Escaped
from the Folsom Penitentiary Dead
and Twelve Still at Large.
PRISON OFFICIALS SET FREE
RELEASED BY CONvICTs PROBABLY
BECAUSE FOOD WAS SCARCE.
Pursuing Officers Ordered to Shoot
Their Game on Sight, and a Des-
perate Fight Is Expected.

PLACERVILLE, CAL, July 2S-Of the
thirteen convicts who escaped from the
State .peitentiary at Folsom yesterday
twelve are still at large. Joe Murphy, who
was serving fourteen-year sentence for
robbery, was shot dead last night at Pilot
Hill. s. NJ. Gordon, the reported leader of
the gang, who had been sentenced to forty
five years for robbery. deserted his follow
ers soon after they left the prison. He was
heavily armed, and it is not known in which
direction he sought safety. A negro convict
named Seavis, who was reported wounded
in the first encounter with the officers, ap-
pears not to have been injured
The eleven outlaws who remain together
are making for the Sierra Nevada noun
tains. They are closely pursued by the
sheriffs of Sacramento Eldorado and
Placer counties, each backed by numerous
deputies and assisted by a company of
militia. About twenty guards from the Fol-
som prison are also engaged in the chase.
1t is believed the fugitives will soon be
surrounded and a desperate battle is antici-
pated, as all are heavily armed.
The work of the pursuing posses has been
rendered less difficult than anticipated
by the unexpected action of the convicts,
who to-day released all of the free men
they held as hostages. Ii is thought this
course was prompted by lack of food and
ammunition. The eleven are now believed
to be near Placerville, in Eldorado county.
in a rough country and not far from the
mountains, which they evidently hope to
make their refuge.
The fight at Pilot Hill last night between
the convicts and their pursuers seems to
have been a more serious affair than at first
reported. After they had looted a provision
store at Pilot Hill they were practically
surrounded by the sheriffs of Sacramento
and Placer counties, each commanding a
strong force. All four horses on the con-
victs' wagon were shot and one of the
criminals was killed outright. Then the
