MORE MINE RIOTS

CLEVELAND, June 4, 1906.-Tele-
phonic reports from Steubenville early
today state that a riot between 40 strik
ing coal miners and 40 guards, Is of the
latter had been shot.
1t is not known how many were killed,
as the surviving guards are in the mines,
and are afraid to come out and remove
or attend the wounded or dead.
Sheriff Varhis has notified the Gov
ernor. He has been promised State
troops in case he makes demand for
them. The Sheriff has made arrange
ments with the Pennsylvania Railroad
to secure a special train in which to rush
hundreds of extra guards to the scene.
From the reports received here it is
said that the fighting was the result of
the coal company's efforts to import a
carload of non-union men under cover of
darkness.
The strikers tried to seek out the inn
ported men in an endeayor to keep them
from re-entering the mines. The guards,
seeking to intimidate the strikers, drew
their guns and fired into the air.
The miners, instead of fleeing, made a
concerted attack. The battle waged
warmly for fifteen minutes, hundreds of
shots being fired. The guards were
finally routed and forced to withdraw in
to the mines.
The feeling between the mine guards
and the strikers has been bitter since the
mine was opened with non-union labor.

with by regimental court martial. Col.
Brensinger has expressed the hope that
members of the regiment who do not in

FINS SWAN ASHORE

At eight O'Clock this morning Rounds
man Heck. of the Montgomery street
station. was surprised by the appear
aEce of two men on Bergen avenue whose
garments were dripping wet. Inc
roundsman thought this something un-
usual and he accosted the two men. Ihey
could not speak English and could not,
therefore, give a good account OF their
condition. One of them pulled out big
wallet and endeavored to flr1d some
papers that would explain to the rounds
man who he was The wallet and the
papers it contained were soaked with
water. and the roundsman couldn't make
ANYTHING out of the contents except that
he recognized number of American
bank notes. He thought it was better
to take the two men to the Montgomery
street station After submitting their
wallets, with their contents, to the ser
geant at the desk the two men, who were
unable to make themselves understood,
and who. apparently, did not understand
what their arrest meant, made for the
open door and beat it in the direction OF
the Boulevard Roundsman Heck, De

serves were soon in hot pursuit and over
took the two men, who were handicapped
by the weight of their clothes. The two
men were subsequently taken to Police

is violation of the Federal law. just
before landing the boatman made signs
for his pay. His gesticulations were mis-
understood by the two Fins, who thought
he intended to rob them. They jumped

RUSSIAN MOBILES LEAGUE

ST. PETERSBURG, June 4, 1906
statement authorized by Prime Minis
ter Goremykin was issued by the Chan
cellory of the Empire to-day. 1t seeks
to clear the air with regard to the rela-
tive positions of the Government and the
Duma. The existing situation, in which
the ministers continue to express hopes
of being able to cooperate with the Du-
ma after the latter has unanimously yot-
ed no confidence in the Cabinet, is ex
planned in the Premier's view by the cir
cumstance that the Duma has entirely
mistaken its position.
When private commission, says Co
remykin, went abroad last winter to
study the various elected chambers of the
continent Of Europe the commissioners
found that the model which best suited
them was the Prussian Diet This was
especially true in view of the fact that
neither the Diet nor the Duma was en-
titled to interfere with either the foreign
or the military policy of the Empire
Goremykin declares in his statement that
the Duma is wholly outside its powers in
seeking to interfere with the constitution
or the Council of the Empire and in
claiming to fix the responsibility of the
Council of Ministers, but it is entitled te
a share of legislative functions within
the limits prescribed by the Fundamental
Laws.
The Ministry denies that it has adopt
| ed an attitude of non possumus on the
question of agrarian appropriation, but
maintains that compulsion must not bt
| the basic principle of this great reform
| The Ministers did not resign after the
| hostile vote of the Duma, because they
| were convinced that the same want Of
confidence would be expressed as to theil
| successors, even were they selected from
| the majority in the Duma. The Ministry
would continue to draft it's own bills fol
the improvements of the conditions Of
peasant life, irrespective of any impossi
BILE project the Duma might discuss.
| A conference of the entire nobility Of
Russia has been summoned, to be heli
| in st. Petersburg, the middle of this
| month. Imperial Chancellor Ushakof
proposes the formation Of landowners
league for the purpose of effecting vol
untary land allotment system. The enor
nous difficulty of furnishing compensa
tion under the bill for compulsory expro
| priation is realized by the financial world
which estimates the cost at more THAI
| 100000.

The Skeeters again got the best of the
Orioles Saturday, and as the Bisons, who
are the top-notchers, lost to Toronto, the
Skeeters are pushing the Bisons hard for
first place, with the Sailors on their
heels. Jennings's men were outplayed at
every stage of the game, though it was
an exciting contest and the Birds came
near tieing the score in pull-out in the
eighth and ninth innings. O'Hara did
great work with the Baltimore stick,
making four hits out of four times up.
1t was a home run hit off Moskimon in
the ninth that brought the score within
an ace of making a tie. Up to the eighth
Moskimon, with good field support, had
shut out the Birds. The Skeeters scored
in the opening round of the battle. Glenn
ent made a safety, was sacrificed to sec
ond and scored on Cassidy's hit Clement
again made safety in the third inning,
and reached third on Cassidy's hit and
an out and scored on Hanford's two-bag
ger. A brace of tallies were added in
the sixth on hit by Cassidy, force by
Hanford, bad throws by Burchell and
Merritt's hit. In the eighth the Birds
commenced to get busy. OHara hit
Moskimon for a safety and got as far as
the third sack on Kelly's hit. He scored
on Beams muff of fly. Moskimon
weakened in the ninth. With one Bird
down, Jennings hit safely to centre aIdl
purloined the second sack. Ramsey, up
for Burchell, struck out. Then came
O'Hara's hit for circuit of the bases.
Hail was given a pass. Kelly took up
the cudgel and sIamed out what looked
to be beauty, but Clement. by mag
nifcent sprint caught it. That ended
the game.

ELEVATOR PROBLEM

There was no elevator service in the
City Hall from 12 M. Saturday until
o'clock this morning. Police Headquar-
ters is located on the third floor. Dur
ing the time mentioned 21S people, by
actual count, had business with the
Headquarters staff. City Hall Custodi-
an Connolly says the reason why the ele-
vator service was shut down was because
men in the boiler room would have to
work on Sundays. There are three men
working on eight-hour shifts, and as the
elevator has to be shut down every day
at 4 p. NJ, some of the police officials
think it might be interesting for the pub
lie to know if the men in the boiler room
are to be paid during the summer, and
that as but one of them is working at a
time how they will split up the duty of
eight hours out of each day. The regu-
lar elevator men have heretofore been
relieved by policemen.

NEWARK, June 4, 1906-When the
Legislature at its last session appropri-
ated $350,000 for the determination OF
mosquitoes in New Jersey, it was the
general expectation that the work would
start at once and go merrily on until all
the marsh lands which make up the ex-
tensive mosquito breeding area of the
coast territory We're drained and put out
of commission as pest-producers. Such.
however, proves not to be thef case. II
appears that none of the money appro-
priated will be available before Noyenl~
Der l, and at that time there will be only
$13,5O0 for use. Professor John B.
Smith, State Entomologist, known as the
father of the mosquito crusade" ex-
plains the situation in letter to New
ark inquirer. Says Professor Smith
Il am glad to have the opportunity of
Strengthening out one point. You viii
see by the law passed at the last session
of the Legislature that it does not take
effect until November of the current year.
and therefore, nothing can be done until
after that time. Another point on which
there is some misapprehension is the
amount of money available If you will
read the last section of the bill you Will
see that the total appropriation is fixed
at $350,O00, but the amount annually
available is whatever may be fixed by
tion bill.
The amount fixed in the regular ap-
preparation bill which takes effect No
vember is $13, 500, so that the popular
belief that there is $4,000 available for
the work is an error.
$50 far as it is possible to make plans
at this time, the intention is to begin
work where Elizabeth left off. The work
at Newark has been done satisfactorily
There may be one or two little places
that need attention, and they will be
looked after. Whatever remains to be
done at Elizabeth will be finished and
the work will be continued from that
point southwark until the densely settled
section is passed. After that it is more
than likely that money will be spent at
those points where individual communi-
ties show an inclination to help them
selves. and wherever we can get the
greatest amount of local assistance there
the work will be started first.
81 am on the point of going to Ant
werp, and expect in the summer to
familiarize myself with what has been
done in European countries in this and
similar lines''

priations down to the lowest minimum
and he has accordingly, frowned down
a number of bills. The House leaders
think that if the Senate does not increase
the appropriations too much the deficit
in the revenues will be reduced to about
$10,O0OO00 by July 1, 1907, and probably
be wiped out altogether.
Another chapter was added yesterday
to the controversy growing out of the cot
ton conspiracy scandals in the Depart
ment of Agriculture which discloses the
germs of another possible scandal.
After many weeks of lobar the report
of the Keep Commission, which made an
investigation to ascertain the reliability
of the agricultural census of 1900, has
been made public. The census bureau
gets clean bill of health while the
commission stands pat on the declaration
made in a previous report that crop re-
turns of the Department of Agriculture
were frequently in error and We're in
many instances mere guesses. The re-
port says:
"We have the honor to report that in
our judgment the agricultural returns of
the twelfth census are substantially ac-
curate, that they are more accurate than
the agricultural returns of any previous
census, and that they did. at the time
they were published, furnish an accurate
basis upon which the estimates of the IL
vision of statistics (now the bureau of
statistics) could be based and could be
adjudged
"With view to bringing to an end, if
possible, the controversy that has ragged
for years over government crop returns,
the commission omitted to incorporate in
its report correspondence that passed be-
tween John Hyde, former statistician of
the Department of Agriculture, and mem
bers of a committee representing the
National Board of Trade, which, it is al
legged, shows that Hyde was inpart re-
sponsible for the report of the Board of
Trade committee, made in 1902, which
condemned the census bureau and white
vyocbad +bo s+o t;c+;oo1 rvorI- of M. uvdo
Secretary Wilson objected to the con-
clusions of the Keep commission in its
previous report, on the ground that a
mistake had been made in setting up the
agricultural census as a standard and
judging the value of the departments re-
turns by that standard. He suggested
that the census be investigated. saying:
81 cannot do better than call your atten-
ton to the report dated September,
1902, of committee appointed by the
National Board of Trade to inquire into
the methods of the census bereau and the
Department of Agriculture"
Since the accuracy of the census be-
reau's reports was attacked, it had been
charged that theh figures sent in by field
agents have been manipulated by "ed-
itors" in the bureau. On this point the
commissioners say that they are con-
viuced that department editing has been
no serious effect on the accuracy of re-
suits.
The report is signed by G. H. Keep,
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury;
James Rudolph Garfield, commissioner of
corporations; Clifford Pinchot. chief for
ester of the Government, and Lawrence
o. Murray, Assistant Secretary of the
Department of Commerce and Labor
