FIGHT TO A FINISH
sIGNIFIcANT PROCLAMATION OF A
 MINE OPERATOR.
President of sloss Company Says No Quarter Wi1l be Given striking Miners-An Interesting
 Shooting Contest.

Birmingham, Aug. 16.-(SpeciaL)-
 The most significant development in
 the strike situation today was the
 position taken by President Maben. of
 inc sloss-shefield steel and Iron Con-
 pany. who, in an interview. declared
 in substance that the Sloss Company
 would never again discriminate be-
 tween union and non-union labor and that this company would take no back
 ward step in the conflict now on with the United Mine Workers. He declared in substance that it was A fight to the finish and that 1t would be fought to conclusion satisfactory to the company no matter how much For some reason there has been an impression in the public mind that the | Sloss- -Shefiield Company would again treat with the miners and possibly come to settlement, but this inter- view stamps this impression as utterly | false.
 It is now a question of endurance and both sides seem to be in a position to carry the fight on for some time | The corporations, of course, have almost unlimitef resources. and Presi- 1 dent Edward Flynn, of the United Mine Workers. Alabama divfsion. says | that the miners have funds sufficient | to carry on the fight for @ year at least | The efforts of the furnace companies | 10 operate tnelT mines with non unlof | labor. or union labor that is willing to ! accept their terms. are becoming more pronounced each day and there seems | little doubt but an increasing number | of men are being secured. The mine workers ofiicials claim that there are practically no assertions from their ranks. The commercial coal operators miners, who are working under a tenn porary scale, number about five thou sand men, and they are giving '$1 a week to aid the strikers. Besides this, the national organization is ex- tending aid and the State organization has a large surplus in the treasury. Sc the fight will be prolonged into the winter, almost beyond a doubt.
 The strike, so far as the public is concerned, is not felt nearly so much as the memorable struggle of 1894, due to the fact that only the furnace operators miners are out and to the further fact that the district has grown so rapidly in the last few years that 1t has reached stage where a few thousand men being out of employ ment cuts little figure in the total volume of business done. Hence the
 public is looking upon the struggle
 with far less solicitude than was mani
 fest in the struggle of ten years ago

Philanthropy IA Rewarded.

A stock broker who was on his way
% the city observed that one Of bis
lellow-passengers In the car was
closely regarding him. After a time
the man looked over and asked:
Didn't see you In Frisco in 1902"
The broker wasn't in Frisco In that
year, but thinking to humor the
stranger, replied in the affirmative.
Don't you remember handing q
poor, shiverlng wretch dollar one
night outside hotel"

and another ! am now worth $25,OOO.'
"Ah! Glad to hear It,"
"And now | want you to take IS In
place Of that dollar. cannot feel
easy until that debt Is paid"
The broker protested and objected
but finally just to humor the man
be took the $40 bill offered him
and returned the IS change. The
stranger soon left the car, and every.
thing might have ended then and
there II the broker, on reaching the
office, hadn't ascertained that the $40
was a counterfeit and that he was So

voraciously while the feast lasted and

Then the host flshed in a pocket Of his

st. Petersburg, Aug. 31.-Even late
tonight the greatest uncertainty pre-.
walls regarding the actual situation
at Liao Yang. There Is intense an
xiety for definite news from the 'front.'
but even the authorities are frankly
ignorant as, to whether Or not the
long expected decisive action will be
fought at Lao Yang or further south.
1t is certain that the armies are now
even now proceeding, and there are
many indications that such Is the
case. If this is SO the fate of this
years campaign may be settled within
within forty-eight hours. AT the same
time opinion is almost equally divided
many believing that General Kuro.
patkin will not make a determined
stand and that the Japanese will crack
the shell only to find that the bird
has flown.
One Of the Russian correspondents
Of the Associated Press says that the
fighting so far has been confined Who'll
ly to rear guard actions, The Russian
force is now concentrated in a series
of exceedingly strong positions around
Lao Yang, but the whole withdrawal
was In accordance with pre-arranged
plan.
1t Is certain that the armies are now
in close touch. The Japanese are ad.
vancing in great force along both of
the roads converging on Liao Yang,
but the crucial question, whether it is
the main Russian army that is concen-
trated there to receive them or mere.
ly strong screen, has not been an.
swered up to this date.
Much depends upon the weather.It
1t possible that the recent rains may
have made General Kuropatkin's with.
drawal impossible even II he desired
to withdraw, or that a further down.

sides; but the latest indications that

a reliable source that Lieutenant Gen.

telegraphed to the emperor thanking
him for the recent message of en-
couragement sent to the garrison of
Port Arthur, saying that the defenders
of the fortress are ready and willing
to lay down their lives, that the garri-
son has already suffered severely and
lntimating that it is hardly possible
to hold out for more than a month or
six weeks.
