COAL MINERS OUT At COLFAX;
OTHER DIFFICULTIES SETTLED

Colfax, Sept. 2. - For several days
people here have looked forward to
September 1 with anticipations of
strike and yesterday realized their ex-
pectancy to the extent that miners
numbering about 400 have temporarily
quit work claiming that the Colfax
Consolidated Coal Co., is not comply
ing with the terms of its two year con-
tract with the miners regarding the
matter of transportation to and from
the mines at Andersonvillie and Seev-
ers, a distance of three and five miles
respectively from town.
The miners also object to the cars
provided for them and ask that they
may be furnished with coaches or good
cabooses in which to ride.
They are expecting State President
White here to confer with them re-
garding the matter and it is generally
believed that satisfactory settlement
will soon be made.
Settle Two Disputes.
Des Moines, Sept. AT protracted
meeting of the joint grievance board
of the Iowa Operators association and
the United Mine Workers last night a
settlement of the Mendoza and Numa
mine troubles was effected.
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1904-09-03

John P. Reese, commissioner of the
operators, and President John White
of the United Mine Workers headed
the two delegations At Mendoza it
was agreed that the agreement signed
last spring by the operators and min
ers will be enforced to the letter and
at Numa there will be like enforce
ment of the agreement as well as con-
centrated effort on the part of both the
miners and the operators to secure
enough men to operate the shafts now
lying idle.
I'VE think" said President White of
the miners, that we have given the
operators, better impression of the
union than they had before. Of course,
there are a few bad places in the union
as well as in any movement but on the
whole there is no desire to defeat the
just ends of the agreem ent and there
will be none in the future.
Will Be Ordered Back.
"The Mendoza mines will not cause
any further trouble as the men there
will be ordered to abide by the agree.
ment and the operators have been
shown that the rise in the price is not
due to any irregularity in the weighing
but is due to the better conditions un,
der which the men are now working. y

Japanese Center Advances.
Toxic, Sept. 2.-The chief staff of

ing, reported that the Japanese cen
ter was continuing to advance today,
with the object of taking the line from
Shin Chi Yen to Lao Yang, and ef-
Efecting a re-junchon with the Japan
ese left commanded by General Oku.
st. Petersburg, Sept. AT 4 o'clock
this afternoon the war Office received
dispatch from Peteroff, sent to the
emperor last night by General Kuro-
patkin, and dated p. m. AS transmit
ted to the war office for publication the
dispatch states that the artillery bat
tie proceeded till the hour of sending
1t, that the Russians were retiring up
on their main positions" that General
Kuroki was attacking the Russian
left, north of the Taitse river, and that
the railroad station, situated mile
northeast of Lao Yang, had been set
on fire by Japanese shells.
"Main Position" Moved.
The dispatch adds that the main po-
sition" had been transferred across the
river to a point on the north bank and
that Kuropatkin has passed In review
the Third Siberian corps under General
Ivanoff, which suffered greatly in the
earlier stages of the battle, and that
1.-THE Russian losses for two days were
5000 killed or wounded.
The dispatcn as given out. therefore,
does not admit that Kuropatkin is with
drawing across the Taitse river entire
lily. 1t is possible owing to the pres
sure of the Japanese that the Russian
army, as stated in the Toxic dispatches,
was thrown into confusion and greatly
hampered. In the light of the knowl-
edge that main position" of the
Russians is on the north bank of the
river the dispatch becomes ineligible.

kuropatkln Ordered Retreat.
st. Petersburg, Sept. 2.-1:05 p.m.)
No absolute information has reach
ed the war office here confirming the
reports that Lao Yang has been oc.
cupied by the Japanese but it is posi-
lively known that General Kuropatkin
decided to withdraw from his posi-
tions south of Liao Yang to the north
bank of the Taitse river Tuesday
night and the orders were actually
given. The war Office presumes that
the movement was carried out since
the latest advices yesterday were that
the crossing Of the river was not be-
ing opposed.
Today's Advices Incomplete.
Whether the whole of General Ku-
ropatkin's army got across yesterday
is not definitely established, the war
Office not having yet received COM
plete advices.
In view of the Toxic dispatch this
morning it is possible the troops are
forming a Japanese screen and por-
ton of the Japanese right flank did
not succeed in crossing the river.
There are two good, regular bridges
at Lao Yang, over which the Russian
crossing could be effected, and there
Is railroad bridge about two miles
down the stream
