Back TO Work Go 5000 Miners.

At a Meeting of the United Mine
Workers for the Western district held
at Central City last Saturday a settle
ment was agreed upon between the
operators and the miners in
the district. The miners accept
ed the recommendation of the
scale committee which are that
the wages of the punch machine help
ers be advanced from Sl.SS to 81
day; that the miners pay the shot
firers where they are required but be-
fore they are put in the miners are to
have a hearing before the chief mine
inspector and if the mine is in bad
condition, they can demand that the
condition be remedied and the nee
essity for shot-firers avoided; also
that the miners shall not be required
to wait for railroad cars as heretofore
With these exceptions the old scale
is adopted. The settlement is for
two years and is generally approved
by both sides.
TEis agreement puts to work after
only a brief lay off 5000 honest sons
OF toll who will not be bothered again
for two years.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF
POWERS PARDON
Though Premature Produced wild
Seems of Enthusiasm at Re-
publican Convention.

Convention Hall Louisville May g.
Wild scenes were witnessed in the
convention hall when Chairman Coch-
ran announced Caleb Powers and James
Howard had been pardoned for the
murder of VIM. Goebel. Delegates
stood on chairs screamed and yelled
themselves horses. They threw hats
and handkerchiefs in the air. No dem
onstration in a Kentucky convention
equaled the continuous and thunderous
applause. Wild rushes were made to
and from the platform and the con-
vention became a wild mob. The band
played MY Old Kentucky Home" and
then the delegates became apparently
crazed with delight, The negroes
drowned out the cheers of the others.
A man mounted the stand and cried:
Bring Powers here. Make him a
hero" The crowd again went wild.
Taylor has been pardoned to" cried
another and men began TO throw
money on the stage to pay the expense
of the long-imprisoned men TO Louis
Vile. Money fairly flew into the out
stretched hands, while the delegations
continued TO push scream, jump up
and dow and some men actually wept.
"A special train" cried a delegate.
Wen get one" cried another and it
was agreed that the train should be
chartered TO bring Powers and Howard
to Louisville tonight. In less than five
minutes over $3.50 had been collected in
dollar bills quarters nickels and dimes.
The Eleventh district delegations
stood on chairs and cried Powers,
Powers. he's the man, Powers; Pow
ers, the hero of the party"
Mckenzie Todd Governor Wilson's
private secretary was conferred with
and reported that the rumor was I'M
founded.
The convention although adjourned
then turned itself into a meeting which
in reality was an appeal to Gov. Will
son to pardon the men if he had not
already done so.
Money was still being dumped into
hat ito bring Powers and Howard
to Louisville"

BITTER DEFEAT FOR
SENATOR JEFF DAVIS.
Opponents Control Arkansas Con
yention and Will Not Send Him
To Denver as Delegate

Little Rock Ark, May 3.-To-day's
Developments in Democratic political
circles are that Senator Jeff Davis,
candidate for delegate-at-large to the
National Convention, will be defeat
ed beyond doubt. Gov. Pindall's an
nouncement that he would oppose Da-
Wis, has met with universal approval
from the anti-Davis element of the
party and all concede that the various
factions opposed to Davis will unite
on Pindallsan elect him overwhelm-
ingly.
Fully eight-tenths of the delegates
to the State Convention who have
visited Little Rock since the primaries
openly declare they will not vote for
Davis. AS matters now look the dele
cation to the National Convention will
be composed of Senator James p.
Clark, Gov. X. o. Pendill, Secretary
of State o. G. Ludwig and George w.
Donaghey, recently nominated for
Governor at the primaries over Davis
opposition.

BATTLESHIPS
ALMOST COLLIDE
Illinois and Alabama In Peril At
Monterey--Ship STOPPED Just
In Time.

Monterey, Cal May 3.-A northwest
gale sweeping into the harbor gave
the eight ships of the second division
of the Atlantic fleet several hours of
watchfulness last night and cut off
all communication with the shore. A
serious accident was narrowly averted
when the battleship Illinois, second
in line from the Alabama flagship of
Rear Admiral Sperry, parted her an
Choir chain in the height of the blow
and went drifting toward the shore.
The Illinois headed directly for the
Alabama and it looked for long time
as though a collision was imminent.
But heroic work by the helmsmen
managed to steer the drifting ship
away and the only damage done was
the tearing away of the port gangway
of the Alabama. The Illinois drifted
fully 800 yards before her emergency
anchors sent spinning into the white
capped waters finally held fast. The
winds continued to-day and the Hi
nois made no attempt to regain her
position in the fourth division column
A thousand liberty men were ashore
and the problem of finding a place
for them to sleep severely taxed the
available buildings in Monterey.
Admiral Sperry's barge from the
Alabama had a hole stove in her bow
as a result of collision with the
ships gangway and was beached later
in the night. A schooner laden with
lime also went ashore and gasoline
launch in which a lighted lantern had
been left, caught fire and went to
the bottom.
| 1t is believed that the anchor lost
from the Illinois when the cable
parted last night NAL not be recov-
cred as the water is too deep for d.
vers too work in. 1t was said that II
the blow continued 1t might delay
the departure of the second squadron.
ships for Santa Cruz tomorrow.

delivered to this plaintiff the note
of Ohio county for $5,s92.43 payable
out of the levy of 1894, which note
was accepted by A. b. Baird in full
settlement of all claims against Ohio
county and was afterward paid in full
by Ohio county, and surrendered by
the Sheriff to the Fiscal court and
destroyed by them.
Defendant says that two or three
days after the execution of the last
named note, above referred TO, the
plaintiff, A. B. Baird, falsely and frau
dulently, with the purpose to cheat
and defraud Ohio county represented
to the commissioners John p.
Morton and G. w Martin, as
aforesaid, that the note first exc
cuted by them for. $5,S92.43 was infor-
NAL and not capable of being discoun-
ted at the bank because of the infor-
mality of its execution and requested
that they sign note which he had
prepared, and which conformed to the
requirements of commercial usage,
which is now filed with the petition
as Exhibit No. l." Nat the plain
tiff, A. b. Baird, represented to the
commissioners J. p. Morton and G..
w. Martin, that the note first exc
and would be returned 10 the Fiscal
court so soon as the note then exc
cuJed could be substituted for it and
acting on this assurance, said commits
sioners J. p. Morton and G.. w. Mar
tin, executed and. delivered to the
plaintiff the note sued on that no con
sideration was ever given Ohio coun-
ty for the same, and that it was pro-
cured by the fraudulent deceit of the
plaintiff as aforesaid; and that plain
tiff had procured the note sued on he
falsely and fraudulently represented
to the Fiscal Cour ito Ohio county
that the note first executed had been
lost or misplaced and could not be
found; that the said first note execu-
ted and the paper filed with the petit
ton marked Exhibit No. L." were
similar as to date, amount, payee and
payor, and that the note sued on was
obtained by the fraud and misrepre-
sentation of the plaintiff, as afore-
said and is and was without any con-
sideration given to Ohio county, and
is null and void.
Wherefore defendant prays that the
plaintiff take nothing by his pc
tition and that the same be dismiss
ed; for its cost herein expended;
that the note sued on be cancelled and
held for naught, and finally for all
proper relief.

Marion, KY, May 5.-The detail OF
X, of this place returned this after
noon form their raid in Caldwell
county whittier they went yesterday
armed with warreuts OF arrest for
thirty-two alleger night riders and as
the fruits of an all-night vigil and
many long rides in the rain and mud
they brought in this afternoon on the
train the following: Guy Satterfield'
Herbert Coleman, Buck Tandy, Roger

The trials were set for May Is, and
the bond of each man was put
at $1,000 in each case some of them
being accuesd of being in both the Car
din factory raid at View and also the
Bennett Bros raid at Dyscusburg in
which Henry Bennett and w. b.
Groves were whipped.
Information has reached here that
six more arrests have been made in
Lyon county and that the prisoners
will arrive here tonight on the 49,
13 o'clock train from Kuttawa.
Great excitement prevails here but
public sentiment favors the efforts
being made by the officers to enforce
the law and hope is entertained that
some at least of the guilty men will
be caught. The county officials do
not give the evidence in their hands
for the basis on which these whole
sale arrests are being made, but they
say they have the proper evidence
and have their plans well laid and
that they have no mistake, but will
ferret the cases to the bottom. 1t
is currently reported but not verifi-
ed by the officials that some of the
alleged night riders have turned
States evidenc and put the whole plot
in the officers hands.

LIQUOR TRAFFIC
Terrible Arrangement of
RuinOuS Business
Remarkable Speech Delivered at
Indiana State Republican
Convention.

Personally, have seen so much of
the evils OF the traffic in the last
four years so much of its economic
waste, SO much of its physical ruin
50 much of its mental blight so much
of its tears and heartache, that have
come to regard the business as one
that must be held and controlled by
strong and effective laws. l bear no
malice toward those engaged in the
business, but | hate the traffic. l hate
its every phase. | hate it for its in
tolerance. | hate it for its arrogance
hate it for its hypocrisy. | hate it
for its greed and avarice. | hate it
for its sordid love of gain at any price.
hate it for it's domination in
politics. | hate it for it's corrupt
ing influence in civic affairs. | haze
ii for its incesSanC effort TO debauch
the suffrage of the country; for the
towards it makes of public men. |
hate it for it's utter disregard of law.
hate it for it's ruthless trampling
of the slomen compacts of State con-
stitutions.
| hate it for the load it straps to
labors back, for the palsied hands
it gives to toll; for its wounds to gen.
ius; for the tragedies of it's might
have-beens. | hate it for the hui
man wrecks it has caused. | hate it
for the almshouse it peoples; for the
prisons 1t fills; for the instantly it be-
gets; for its countless graves in pot
ters' fields. | hate it for the mental
ruin it imposes upon its victims; for
its spiritual blight; for its moral
degradation. / hate it for the crimes
it has committed. | hate it for the
homes it has destroyed. | hate it
for the hearts it has broken. / hate it
for the malice it has planted in the
hearts of men; for its poison, for It's
bitterness for the dead sea fruit
with which it starves their souls.
| hate it for the grief it causes
wOmanhood-the scalding tears, the
hopes deferred the strangled aspira-
tions, its burden of want and care.
hate it for its heartless cruelty TO tho
aged, the infirm and the helpless;
for the shadow it throws upon the lives
of children; for its monstrous in
justice to blameless little ones. | hate
it as virtue hates vice. as truth hates
error, as righteousness hates sin,
as justice hates wrong, as liberty
hates tyranny, as freedom hates OPP
preston.
hate il as Abraham Lin
coin hated slavery And as he
sometimes saw slavery and the
coming of the time when the
sun should shine and the rain
should fall upon no slave in
all the Republic SO l some
times seem to see the end of
this unholy traffic; the coming of the
time when if it does not wholly cease
to be it shall find no safe habitation
anywhere beneath Old Glory's stain
