Confederate Veterans Place Them
selves on Record.


Grenada, Miss, March 21.-An anti
Iynching crusade has been inaugural
ed by the w. r. Barksdale camp
United Confederate veterans of this
city. The following significant resolu-
ton were unanimously adopted at a
largely attended meeting of the camp:
First. that we are unalterably op-
posed to the lynching of a human
being, save perhaps for the one I'M
mentionable crime.
Second, that as Confederate veter-

issippi and of the United States we
are violently, vehemently and eternal
ly opposed to the practice of burning
a human being for any crime what
soever.
Third, that we appeal in laundering
tones to all Confederates, their wives
and daughters, and to that great and
glorious organization, the Daughters
of the Confederacy, one and all, to
arise in their might and by precept
and example, voice and pen, moral
force and influence, help put stop
to this diabolical, barbaric, unlawful
inhuman and ungodly crime Of burn
ing human beings.
Fourth, that we heartily approve
and applaud the action Of Gov. Varda
man in his recent successful efforts
to save a criminal Irom a mob bent on
burning.

Report That 1900 japanese
Were Captured Was Not
Well Founded.
SkIRMISHES
SLIGHT
Outside of Such Minor Engagements
There Has Been No Action
Worthy of Name.
--latest Reports From the Far East
Say That All Is Quiet on
Sea and Land.

London, March 21.-Nothing has
reached here to confirm the report
that battle has taken place on the
Yalu in which the Russians captured
1900 prisoners.
A dispatch from ST. Petersburg to
a news agency dated yesterday says
there has been no change in the sit
uation and that all is quiet on both
land and sea. Between the Russian
line from Ping Yang to the Yalu river
and the Japanese line to Gensan, there
have been slight skirmishes between
scouts, but no battle has taken place,
as the distance between the opposing
armies is great. The bulk of the
Russian forces, the dispatch adds, has
not yet passed the Yalu river.
A St Petersburg correspondent
says that the military authorities
were startled by the attempt of the
Japanese to land in Helena bay, as
the nearest Russian force that could
have been used against them consist
ed of three rife regiments at New
Chwang. The weather having hinder
ed the Japanese landing, energetic
measures are now being adopted to
prevent such descent.
Among the other devices adopted
has been the concentration of troops
at Foo Chow, twenty-five miles south
of Helena bay.
In cabling the fact that all British
and American residents at New
/ Chwang must remain within the walls,
a correspondent at New Chwang says:
/ II was arrested while attempting to
leave Yesterday" The correspondent
saws it is reported that Japanese
squadron arrived at the mouth of the
Lao river Saturday night and landed
a party which, after accommodating,
! re-embarked.
A CORES pondent at New Chwang
cables as follows: According to in
formation received here the reason
the Vladivostok forts did not reply to
the bombardment by the Japanese was
because the batteries were not pro-
yided with guns. Since the lombard
ment. parties have been working night
and day to place guns in position
The Russian losses were slight be
cause the batteries were deserted
The same conditions prevail at Via
divostok as at Port Arthur. The sup
ply of provisions there is running
short, and the population is panic
stricken. The ice is considered the
only real protection"

GETTING TOGETHER
Operators and Miners Meet to Sign
the New Scale.

the New Scale.
indianapolis, March 21-For the
purpose of signing the joint wage
scale according to the terms Of the
operators compromise, a meeting OF
the sub-scale committee, consisting OF
two miners and two operators from
each of the four competitive states OF
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and western
Pennsylvania is being held today at
the Claypool hotel. The new scale
which will be signed by the miners
and operators will embrace a reduc-
ton from the present mining scale OF
555 per cent, as set forth in the ult1-
matum of the operators. This is re-
duction of one-half the increase Sc
cured by the miners at their confer
ence last year, or a reduction OF D
cents per ton on screen mining and
8 cents per ton on the run-of-m1ne.
This will make the new scale approx
imately as follows: Pennsylvania,
Ohio and the block district of Indiana,
lump coal 50 cents per ton; Indiana
bituminous, mine run, 81 cents per
ton; Indiana bituminous, lump coal,
IS cents per ton; Illinois bituminous,
mine run, with Danville as basic
point, So cents.
One feature of the new scale is
that it will be a two-years' contract
and will assure peace and amicable
relations in the mining industry for
that period of time. Heretofore all
contracts signed by the miners and
operators have been for a term OF
| one year.
