IN WEST VIRGINIA.
Situation \|>|M'(ii'n More Favorable for
the Strikers.
Pr irmont, W. Va.. Aug. 1.—"There is a
surprise in store for the operators of this
region," said Joseph W. Hae to-night. "In-
side of forty-eight hours there will be sev-
eral additions to the men already out."
There is more in Rae's words than many
people think. He has been here since last
Wednesday and has had two or three
meetings each day. all well attended. 1 his
afternoon, at Monongah. the meetings was
n repetition of the success at Palatine last
r.ight and Catawba yesterday afternoon.
To-morrow at Worthington he will make a
speech to the men. Four more organizers
will join Mr. Rae and Ed Davis, his aide,
to-morrow. Davis went to Clarksburg this
afternoon to organize the Finninickinnick,
Glenwood and Despar men. who are all out.
Rae says he is highly elated over the
prospects and thinks West Virginia will
>et come out. Ma Hon telegraphed from
Charleston to-day that the Kanawha and
New River men had struck for TiO cents a
ton and a check weighman. Rae says he
intends to call on Special Judge John \\ .
Mason, who granted the injunction, as he
wants to know what the judge means. He
does not know whether the injunction at-
tempts to ke?p him from holding meetings
In the public roads or not. To-night there
are more signs of a laying down of picks
than there has been. None of the opera-
tors have contracts of more than ten days
in length, and the men say if they don't
come out the other miners will go back
and they will return to the 25 cent rate.

decrease: in coal coming out
Iii the Fairmont IliHtriet—W heeling
District Uncertain.
Wheeling. W. Va., Aug. 1.—There has been
a decrease in the amount of coal coming out
of the Fairmont region on the Baltimore and
Ohio road, compared with the same period
last week. Last week the average number
of cars received at Bellaire was 210, now
the average is probably not 100. Last week
the Wheeling and Lake Erie was handling
75 to 100 care daily, now not more than 50
cars are handled. The Cleveland. Lorain
and Wheeling comparison is the same as
the Wheeling and Lake Erie.
In the Wheeling district the condition is
full of uncertainty. The break at Boggs Run
has made it very diff cult to keep the men at
Glendale, Moundsville and Elm Grove out.
Some are working now, but this week will
witness a desperate effort to make the sus-
pension general throughout the district. The
operators claim to be sure of their ability
to keep at least half of their usual number
of men at work. Interest in West Virginia
is centering "on the Miners' day" demons-
tration recommended at the late Wheeling
council of labor leaders. Speakers have not
been yet procured, but Gompers, it is said,
will send his beet men into the state with
the hope that a result of the demonstration
will be the tying up of the mines throughout
the state. At the Wheeling meeting it is
probable Mahon. who is in charge in West
Virginia, will be the principal speaker.
LABOR LKAGlTE MEETING.
Speeches mid Resolntlons on the
Miners' Strike.
Pittsburg, Pa., Aug. 1.—To-night a large-
ly attended meeting of the United labor
league was held to take aotion concerning
the miners' strike. Tire labor unions of Al-
legheny were represented by delegates, who
took an active part in the proceedings.
Addresses were made by President Dolan,
Secretary Warner and Organizer Miller of
the miners' officials, and by Mrs. H. G.
Jones, who became prominent as an agi-
tator during the American railway union
troubles in Chicago. She wil'l be one of the
ivcakers at the McCrae school house meet-
ing to-morrow, and also at the big meeting
here on Thursday.
The gist of the miners' officials' speeches
was that money must be forthcoming at
once if the strike is to be continued. They
made forcible appeals to their fellow union-
ists. and the result was the appointment
by the league of a committee* to represent
the matter to the different organizations,
with the end in view of securing the nec-
essary sinews of war for the strikers.
A set of resolutions were adopted ex-
pressing hearty sympathy for the strikers.
eaMing on all union workmen to come to
their reiief. and roundly denouncing the ac-
tion of Sheriff Lowrfl? in commanding the
strikers to not assemble on the highways
of the county. This proclamation they
consider a vital abridgement of the rights
of peaceable citizens.
Many of the delegates at the meeting will
attend the rally to-morrow.
TRE KILLING OF CUMMINGS.
William Hubhs Found Guilty by the
Coroner's Jury.
ScottdaCe, Pa., Aug. l.—Coroner Otvens
to-day held an inquest over the remains of
W. S. Cummings. the non-union mill worker
who was kflled last night during a quarrel
with strikers.
A large number of witnesses v re ex-
amined, but the only one who gave any
positive testimony was Constable Long-
necker, who testified that he was standing
within a few feet of the parties when the
shooting took place, and plainly saw the
flash and smoke from the revolvers beside
William Hubbs. The jury found Hubbs
guilty and he was arrested. Hubbs was a
roller in the employ of the Scottdale iron
and steel company before the strike, and
is one of the best young men in town.
While opinion differs as to the death of
Cummings. it is generally believed that
both sides will be more guarded in their
actions. The town to-night is as quiet
as on an ordinary Sunday.
Pantsinakers' Strike.
New York, July 31.—Two thousand mem-
bers of the pantsmukers' union, No. 3s,
held a meeting to-night and decided to or-
der a general strike in this city, Brooklyn
and Brownsville, L. I. In consequence of
this decision 250 shops in the Greater New
York district will be deserted and 2500
operators and 5000 finishers out of work.
The strikers claim that they can not earn
uk re than $1.50 per week day on an aver-
age, working from 5 o'clock until 7.30 with-
out intermission. Formerly they earned
an avei.ige of $1.41, workin« ten hours each
day. The present strike is for a return to
the latter scale and the abolishment of
the sweating system.
New York. Aug. 1.—The general strike
of the pantsmakers* union went into effect
to-day in the 250 shops in the Greater New
York district. The strikers are enthusias-
tic and believe this effort on their part
will end the sweating system and will re-
store the ol«l rate of wages under which
they made from $10 to $12 a week. There
aro nearly 3000 operators and in conse-
quence of the strike 5W0 finishers are idle.
To Join til© Social Democracy.
New York, Aug. L—At the labor conven-
tion, representing 25,000 Jewish trades
unions, who were recently expelled from
the socialist labor party for protesting
against the method? of certain labor ;• ad-
«rs. a vote was taken and it was decided
by a majority of thirty to join Debs' move-
nt nt, or the social democracy, us it is
ofilcially named.
Will Auk iin Advance.
Trenton, N. J., Aug. l.-At a meeting of
working potters held In this city last night
a committee was appointed to confer with
the manufacturers and request an advance
vf 12Vfc per cent in Wages, the amount of
the cut made in ism. The men claim that
the increased tariff rate on potter.v made
by the Dingley bill justifies their request.
Berlin. Aug. 1.—The Kreuze Zeltung says
that the denunciation of the treaty with
the German zollverein is Great Britain's
first etep toward the protectionist system,
and adds:
"But there is no ground for serious
alarm; because she has her carrying trade
to protect and retaliation to fear. More-
over. a one-sided preference shown to Can-
ada might provoke a conflict with the
United States."
The National Zeitung says. that Grea!
Britain is herself the nation most interest-
ed in the conclusion of a new treaty, and
that Germany may gain much by skillful,
cold-blooded diplomacy.
The Vossische Zeltung says: "So far as
Germany's relations to England are con-
cerned, it is a matter of indifference
whether we have a treaty or not."
The Berliner Tageblatt says: "Great Brit-
ain's intention to join the mother country
and the colonies in a customs union will net
induce her to restrict British trade with
Germany any further than is necessary to
attain this object."
Th\' Tageblatt, the Vfcssische Zeltung and
the National Zeitung all agree that it is
quite out of the question for England to
adopt protection.
FLOODS IN AUSTRIA.
Immense Damage — Royiil Journeys
Stopped by the Waters.
Vienna, Aug. 1.—There is no abatement
of the floods in western and upper Austria.
The Danube continues to rise, and the dan-
ger is very great. At Linse, 100 miles west
of Vienna, and at Mauthsusen, enormous
damage has been done to property. A
heavy stone bridge at Linse has been part-
ly demolished.
A cloudburst is reported from Budweis,
Bohemia, on the Moldau, and there have
been extensive Hoods in the outskirts of
Ischt, a fashionable watering place on the

enna have been ©topped by the floods.
RESERVES CALLED OUT
[Because of the Rapid Spread of the
Revolt in India.
Simla, Aug. l.—ln consequence of the rapid
spread of the revolt, from 12,000 to 15,000 na-
tives now being under armts, the govern-
ment has ordered the reserve brigade to as-
semble under the command of Colonel
Woodhouse. The staff will remain for the
time at Nowshera.
Fort Chakdar is strong enough to resist
any attack, and it has a good supply of am-
munition. The only fear is that the garrison
may become exhausted from constant light-
ing. The tribesmen are sending forward
fresh relays continually. A reconnoitering
column yesterday found the enemy in great
forco blocking the road to Chakdar.
During thr loO of the enemy were
killed and the British had fourteen wound-
ed, among-them Captain Baldwin, who was
severely bounded, and Liej tenanl Keyes,
who received a slight wound. The entmy
followed up the retiring column and at-
tacked the camp in a half-heartPd manner,
being easily repulsed by the garrison.
General Blood, with every available man.
will start to-morrow for the relief of Fort
Chakdar. and the garrison has been noti-
fied of his intention by heliograph. Heavy
lighting is expected at Amandara.
PEACE CON FER ENCE.
Signatures to the Prelliiiliinries
Ami in Postponed.
Constantinople, Aug. 1.—The peace confer-
ence held a three hours' session yesterday,
and the result is a postponement of the
actual signatures of the peace prelimina-
ries. The ambassadors presented the re-
maining sections of the draft, including
those 'providing for a limited control of
Greek llnances, and a new article delining
the method and time of evacuating Thes-
saly. Tewlik Pasha in turn, true to his
well known methods of delay, presented a
series of amendments to all of the arti-
cles suggested. This will necessitate fur-
ther discussion.
The sultan has instituted a new naval
commission with himself as president, to
project a scheme for the reconstruction of
the Turkish navy in accordance with mod-
ern navies.
RAIDS ON SERVIA.
She Protests to the Powers Against
the Albanians.
Constantinople, Aug. 1.—Incursions of Al-
banians, who recently uttacked almost sim
ultaneously seven Servian block houses
along the stretch of frontier between Mad-
liza and Rashke, have led the Servian gov
eminent to make a formal protest to the
powers, and it is believed that this is part
of an organized plan to provoke Servia. The
matter is being discussed by the ainbassa
dors in conftrence, with a \ie^|r of getting an
explanation from Tewlik Pasha, the Turk-
ish minister of foreign affairs.

;here that the Portuguese have been badly
routed in the iialenzl district, north of Del-
agoa bay. The natives declare that not a
Portuguese Is left alive.
Not Aareealile to Greece.
Berlin, August 1.—The Post says: Russia
and Germany having counselled Greece to
submit to the conditions Imposed by the
powers,. M. Ralll, the premier, replied that
21st instant, near Chimbutu, the capital of
Gazaland. The governor of Portuguese
I'Mst Africa, Colonel Alabeque, with a small

occasion Rasoul told the assembly that
"but for the sultan's forbearance the old
woman's ribs would have been broken

fered to accept sureties for his good be-
havior in lieu of imprisonment, but he
could not produce them.
Fighting; on the Nile.
Cairo. Aug. l.^-The Egyptian intelligence
department has brought word of heavy trib-
al lighting ud the Nile between the der-
vishes and the Jaalin»s. The dervishes, un-
der one of the generals of the khalifa, de-
feated the Jaalins in a pitched battle and
occupied Matemneh July 1. The losses on
both sides were very large. The Jaalins
are said to have lost 2000 killed.
First United States Loan.

States, it is now in possession of a promi-
nent B?!gian family. It is dated Antwerp,
December. 1791. confirmed at Philadelphia.
May 5. 17S*2, and is signed by George Wash-
ington and Thomas Jefferson, and certi-
fied by Alexander Hamilton.
Great Britain's Position.
London, Aug. 2.—The denunciation by
Great Britain of the comemrelal treaties
with Belgium and Germany Is the chief
theme of discussion in the European news-
papers.
The Chronicle says: "It is the first tri-
umph of free trade on a great and imperial
scale. It is a curious irony of fate that it
should be the work of a ministry permeated
by the fallacies of protection."
Discussing the effect of Great Britain's
action on the United States and Germany,
the Chronicle expresses the opinion that the
former will be the gainer, while Canada
can not lose by the new condition of affairs,
asserting, "nor is it likely that Germany's
natural wrath will las^ long."
Other papers express^imilar opinions.
Reinforcement at Darwin.
Simla, Aug. 1.—Dispatches to the govern-
ment show that the reinforcement with
abundant supplies of ammunition, arrived
at Dargia at noon to-day. The march was
enforced and very rapid, and nineteen Sikhs

Reed, with large reinforcements, has
reached Camp Malakand.

place Friday in the Langebord district.

position in the Gamasieh valley was cap-
tured and the rebels fell back in confusion
toward Twaiskloof.
African Rebellion.
Cape Town, Aug. 1.—The government
troops have captured all the enemies' pos-
session north, of Twaiskloof. Among the
British losses were Sergeants Hall and
Mercer, who were killed. A general retreat
of the rebels Is expected.
Anglo-German Treaty.
Berlin, August 1.—The attitude of the
German press in the matter of the denun-
ciation of the Anglo-German. treaty is pa-
cific, the newspapers generally following
the keynote sounded by the semi-official
press.
Aiigio-Belgrium Treaty Denounced.
Brussels, Jugust 1.—The Monlteur offi-
cially announces the fact that Great Brit-
ain has denounced the commercial treaty
with Belgium, but adds that the British
government has Intimated its readiness to
negotiate a new treaty.
Honor to Lnurier.
Paris. August 1.—Sir Wilfred Laurier, the
Canadian premier, has been appointed a
grand officer of the Legion of Honor.
Money and Stocks ut London.
London, August 1.—The money market
shows no change, and the cheapness of
loans continued. There is not likely to be
much rise in discount rates, as America is
buying parcels of American securities in
London, and it is doubtful whether the
usual autumn drain of gold will be as large
as heretofore. Japan wants gold, and she
is establishing a gold currency in October,
and Japfrti bonds are being shipped to
London.' In view of this, gold shipments
to Ji,pan will soon begin.
In spite of the bank holidays there was a
fair business on the stock exchange during
the lattoi part of the week. Doubtless
much of the buying was in anticipation of
a lively business in the autumn. Ameri-
cans are improved and are advancing
steadily In general favor, with a prospect
of permanent buoyancy, owing to active
trade developments ih the United States
and the excellent crops. Atchlsons have
been in request, In hope of a 3 per cent
dividend on the adjustment bonds, which
have risen 3Ms. while Atchison preferred

thing may be said of Canada Pacific. This
is due to increased earnings and Klondike

tory. Grand Trunk guaranteed have risen

securities are for the most part dull, ex-
cept Portuguese, which are falling. Mr.
Chamberlain's statement with reference to
the charter of the British South African
company has infused new life into Kaflirs,
and British Columbias have been a feature,
shares in new Yukon companies being
placed on the market at a small premium,
while the shares of other companies have
risen slightly.
Manchester Market.
Manchester, Aug. 1.—Yarns are selling
moderately for Japan and the Levant. The
home demand, However, Is very quiet,
though prices are firm. Cloth also is firm,
but this Is due to the fact that a large
number of looms are Idle and the output Is
somewlvat restricted. The annual holidays
are being extended so far as possible in
various districts; and throughout August
the business to be done will be scarce and
small. Eastern staples are suffering from
the fluctuating exchanges. The German
market is very dull and already begins to
f»-el the effect of overproduction. Reports
from the French markets show a fair
amourt of business and a generally firm
tone.
suits. Such of the mils as are not well
stocked with cotton mav be forced to this
action. The mills which will be stopped
next week represent about one-third of the
total number of spindles in the city, and it
is probable that before the arrival of the
new cotton crop relieves the situation, a
much larger proportion of the total Will
have been shut down for one or more
weeks.
The Goddard mills of Providence, operat-
ing 7000 looms with 3000 spindles, and em-
ploying M00 people, commenced a shutdown
to-day for the week beginning August 9.
This will be the second time within a month
that this cotton plant has been obliged to
curtail production.
The cotton mills of the New York manu-
facturing company at Saco, Me., employing
1500 people, have closed for five weeks. The
shutdown is due to the unsatisfactory con-
dition of the factory market.
Greece would never accept the idea of
flanclal control proposed, and that she
i would frelp herself.

fect* of last Tiirsdav's rain have about

Last year this time there were ginned at
this plftOQ 860 bales of cotton, and up to

Franklin Normal.
Franklin, Robertson Co.', Tex., July 31.—
This, the third week of the Franklin sum-
mer normal, has been full of interest and
activity. Work in the various departments

under skillful hands, are logically un-
folded. Prof. Garrison of the state uni-
versity spent Tuesday here. He lectured
In the morning on the "Rural Schools" to
an appreciative audience, mostly of teach-
ers. His lecture was well received and
will result, no doubt, in much good, es-
pecially to the teachers. In the evening
he conducted the recitation in United
States history.
Miss Nannie Harrison, editor of the Texas
School Journal, spent Wednesday here.
By request she conducted recitations in
literature and mental science. In both she

lic school work. His audience was a large
one and such lectures as he delivers are cal-

proved during the next year.

Ottawu, 111., Sustnlns Heavy Lon>*.
Supposed to lie Incendiury.
Ottawa, 111., Aug. 1.—The Pioneer fire-
proof construction company plant, the larg-
est of the kind in the world, was partially
destroyed by fire this afternoon, causing a
loss of $100,000. There is. only a partial In-
surance. The fire was of Incendiary origin.
The large grain elevator of T. N. Shuler
was burned to the ground this morning.
Loss, *60,000: insurance, $8000. It is now
thought that this building was also set on
fire. Had there been any breeze at the
time of either fire the city of Ottawa would
have been almost wiped out, as both build-
ings were situated close to the business
center.
Colored Church.
Kaufman, Tex., Aug. 1.—The colored
church was burned here last night, to-
gether with contents. Loss about $1000; no
insurance. The colored people had a big
supper last night, which lasted until 1

COFFEE AND SUGAR WAR.
Sugar Trust to It oust Coffee In Plillu-
delphln to lteat the Arhuekles.
Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 1.—The Record
will say to-morrow: The war between the
sugar trust and Arbuckle Bros., the big
ooffee importers, which has carried the
trust into the coffee trade and the Ar-
buckles into the mysteries of sugar refin-
ing, is soon to be transferred in part to
this city. Some time ago the trust, in or-
der to strike at the Arhuekles, bought con-
trol of the Wool sen spice company of To-
ledo, O., one of the largest coffee houses in
the country, and now they propose to con-
vert the old Delaware sugar house at Reed
and Swanson streets into a great coffee
roasting establishment, from which the
trade along the Atlantic seaboard may be
•asily reached. The old sugar house, which
was formerly an independent refinery, has
laid idle for some years, its machinery be-
ing somewhat old fashioned and its ca-
pacity limited as compared with the other
plants here. Recently a number of in-
terior changes have been made in it. and
already two consignments of coffee have
i:een delivered at the establishment for ex-
perimental purposes. It is not likely, how-
ever. that active operations will be started
for some time to come, as ail the machin-
ery needed has not been delivered yet.
Much of It is imported from Germany.
When the plant Is completed it will give
employment to a large number of skilled
workmen.
While the trust Is thus seeking to take
away Arbuckle Bros.' coffee trade, the lat-
ter are retaliating by building a huge
sugar refinery in Brooklyn, with a view to
cutting into the trust's business. As both
Rides are well able to keep up a long
fight, consumers can look on with compla-
cency, confident that no great advance will
be made in the price of sugar and coffee.

Cleveland, O., Aug. 1.—Thomas Cushing,

cape. The train was just above the Inman
compress at the time and the news was
telephoned to officers in the city, and in a
few minutes several were out on the Chase.

the night. The details of the affair were
not learned. The man was arrested several
weeks ago In Hempstead and brought here
one night for safe keeping.
Wire Bicycler Killed.
New York, Aug. 1.—A man known as Prof.
Arier, but whcee real name Is supposed to be
McDonald, was killed at Ridgewood park,
Brooklyn, to-night. As a part of the enter-
tainment which was being held at a Hessian
fete, the professor was advertised to ride
a bicycle on a wire strung about seventy-
five feet from the ground. While half v ay

pedals, causing the bicycle to topple over.
The bicyclist fell to the ground, bringing

tured several ribs and sustained internal in-
juries. He died soon after his removal to a
hospital.

Helton Note*.
Belton, Bell Co., Tex., Aug. J —Rev. J. T.
Salles, the pastor of ti>e Presbyterian
church here, Is off on his annual summer
vacation. In his absence a children's service
was held there this morning, led by Mr
W. T. Shannon.
Quite a number of Chrlstade^phians ar-
rived at their camping ground, the ex-con-
federate park, yesterday afternoon. They
come from different sections of the state
and some of them travel quite a long dis-
tance to attend this meeting. For a number
of years this has been the place for holding
their annual camp meeting, and, so far us
the News reporter knows, this is the only
place in the state where they hold camp
meetings. In point of numbers this denom-
ination is wpak in Texas. It is probable that
they have not a house of worship of their
own In the state, and there are exceeding
ly few. If any, places' where they have regu
lar services. Hence, their annual camp
meeting here must be a season of pleasure
and rejoicing to all those who are of this
faith. , .
