MINERS TO QUIT WORK
Quarter Million to Lay Down Picks md
Shoyels Tonight.


INDIANAPOLIS, IND, March 3o.-The
union miners in myst OF the coal fields
OF te country will lay down their picks
and shovels tomorrow night. Almost
100000 OF them will stop work in Ohio,
Western Pennsylvania, Missouri Iowa,
Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas
and probably Indiana. Illinois, West
Virginia and Kentucky. The mining
contracts. under which they are now
working, expire at midnight tomorrow

vania and in the Indiana block-coal
district, no contracts have been made
nor have the miners and operators yet
entered into district agreements pro-
viding for the operations OF the mines

This is possibility In the Indiana
bituminous district in Illinois, Michi-
gan and West Virginia. The Indiana
bituminous. Western Pennsylvania and
Illinois miners and operators are In
Joint sessions at Terre Haute, Pitts
burg and Springfield.
Technically the miners will go out
on strike. but in reality they stop
work because the operators. except in
Indiana and Illinois. show no inten-
tion of meeting and treating with them.
though no question OF wage or prin-
ciple is at stake.

CHESTER E. GILLETTE. .


Any fear which the prison oficiais5
may have entertained that Gillette's
remarkable composure would desert
him at the last moment was quickly
dispelled when he stepped from his
cell to the corridor leading to the
death chamber. His step was firm and
strong, and he walked rapidly toward
the instrument of death. Not evan
by the quiver OF an eye-lash did he
at no stage old he require assistance
from the keepers and his spiritual ad-
Vlsers, who accompanied nlm.
He seated himself In the chair, the
straps and electrodes We're placed and
within two minutes Gillette had been
officially pronounced dead.
Gillette slept little last night, and
he partook Of a plain breakfast. The
autopsy showed that Gillette was phv-
sically normal. The brain weighed
81 IL ounces.
Mrs. Gillette. mother Of Chester
made statement to-day in part as
follows:
Though 1t Is a very hard thing
for me to feel Chester was Responsible
for Grace Browns death, yet it was
the wish expressed to him continually
by me that II he was guilty he say
SO before the world. and In his
triumphant death feel that God has
answered my dearest wishes and
prayer. And I am also thankful to
know that he did not strike Grace.

Fraught With sensational testimonsa
as was the trial of Chester Gillette in
Herkimer. the feature which stood out
above all the others was the reading
of the letters OF Grace Brown TO ths
falthless man who murdered her. The
powerful impression which these Lett.
ters made on the minds OF the jury
men, many believed. did much to con-
.vict Gillette. Written by country
girl who worked in factory. tha,
letters were regarded as remarkable
productions, both as to their literary
style and as to the thoughts they eN-
pressed. Throughout they breathed
a tender tone of love for the man 20
whom they We're addressed. they told
of the pitiful condition OF the writer
and of her hope that the man who had
wronged her would marry her. But
nowhere IN the letters did the girl
make threat

Brown. He went to his death.
In the electric chair at Auburn prison
without a sign of weakness. and with
tho same lack Of emotion which has
characterized him from the day he was
arrested. charged with the crime.
Gillette appeared to have been fully
rcconciled to his fate, and In a state-f
ment given out by his spiritual ad-N
visers Immediately after the execution.
1t Is indicated that he had made con-
fession ,.of his guilt. This statement
was signed by the Rev. Henry McIlravy.
of Little Falls. and the Rev. Cordello
Herrick the prison chaplain. 1t was
as follows:
Because our relationship with Ches-
ter Gillette was privileged. we do not
deem 1t wise to make a detailed stato-
ment. and simply wish to say that no
legal mistake was made, in his electro
.cution."
Gillette's Statement.
Gillette himself so far as the public
was concerned. never admitted his
crime. His last word. in the form of
a statement. which he prepared with
Ipainstaking care last night, was made
public after he had been put to DEATH
In this statement Gillette said:
I'm the shadow of the valley of death,
1t is my desire to do every thing that
would remove any doubt as to my
having found Jesus Christ, the PERSONAL
Saviour and unfaIling friend. My one
regret at this time is that I have not
give Him the pre-eminencc in my life
while I had the opportunity to worle
for Him. If could only say some one
thing that would draw young men to
Him would deem 1t the greatest privi-
lege over granted me. But all can
say now is. I know in whom I have
believed. and am persuaded that He Is
able to keep that which r have com-
mitted unto Him against that day.
"If the young men OF this country
could only know the JOY and pleasure
of Christian life, know they would
do all in their power to become earnest,
active Christians. and would strive to
live as Christ would have them live. IN
There is not one thing have left
undone which will bar me from facing
my God, knowing that my sins are
forgiven, for I have heen free and
frank in my talks with my spiritual
advisers and God knows where I
stand.
