Receives Orders ' to Withdraw
Troops.
Chicago, July 18.
THE Erst whole duy spent by tbe
quartet of American Railway
union officers in the jail of Cook
county wasa quiet one.althougU
tho interne heat mJ their voluntary
imprisonment decidedly uncomfortable.
Part of the afternoon was spent outside
the jail walls in the office of fc. S. Orr
ery, one of their counsel. They have
meals served to order from u hotel.
Keither their spirits nor their app ititos
have beon i.fl'eoted no far. All requests
of friends to be allowed to furnish
funds for their appearance in the
United States court next Monday wore
met with a firm but grateful reply that
they intended to remain behind the
jail bars until they were taken before
the federal court for trial on the cliargo
of violatiug the injunction.
When they left their cells in the
debtors' department this morniug thoy
came down to the main corridor, where
they found waiting in ths visitors'
cage representatives from tho union
and their relatives. The man
brought the letters addressed to
Debs and others and a satchel
containing wearing apparel for tho
president. Several hours were occupied
in reading the correspondence and
answering some of tbo measles. Many
telegrams sympathizing with the pri
soners and reporting the condition of
the strike in various parts oT the west,
were received hy Mr. Dobs and an
swered in an uneonragiug mivuner.
THEY MAY STAY LOSUEK.
Theodore Debs was asked tonight by a
reporter for the United Press what the
four prisoners would do if they were
found guilty of contempt and given the
option of a fine. He auswered: "It
is in the directiou of the court
to impose a fine alone, a fine
and imprisonment, or imprisonment
alone. If the judgment is a tine or
imprisonment' in default, :ny brother
and the others will pay the flue. There
is no principle involvsd as in tho pres
ent case of giving additional ball. All
of them will stay where they are until
nest Monday morning at least. Thoy
may have to stay longer."
In the absence of Directdrs Iloean
and Goodwin iu the Northwest, and on
account of the imprisonment of four
others, there was no quorum in the ex
ecutive board available today. Direo
tor Burns practically had charge of
affairs, although the prisoners were
consulted and isued directions in re
gard to the strike ontside Chicago. At
Unlich's ball the road committees re
ported that the union was not losing
grouud in Chicago.
The shops at Pullman will probably
be opened in a few days, but the strik
ers by a large majority do not in
tend to return to work at the
reduced scale of wages until they
are forced to do so by tbe pangs
of hunger or the approach of win
ter. The total number of applications
received by the Pullman company from
striktrs who want to return to work is
seventy-five. The great body of strik
ers are getting plenty to eat jast now
from some unknown soarce and every
man, woman and girl is as full of
fight as ever.
TROOPS TO BE WITHDRAWN.
Orders were received this evoning by
Adjutant General iMbus at the head
quarters of General Miles, command
ing the department of tbe Missouri,

Sheridan indefinitely as a reserve iorce

order number about 200 men.
Dotatchments of regulars are now
on guard at the government building
and in several of the railroad yards
and on their withdrawal these places
will be guarded by the militia and po
lice. The order waa issued tonight for
the regulars to break camp in the
morning.

Series of Accidents in th Shenandoah

Suknandoaii, July 18 At Packer
colliery, No. 4. today, Georgo Miller
and Anthony Klnskie, uiiuers, had a
remarkable experience. As the men
were about leaving the mine for tho
day a sudden rush of pillars closed
them iu. While they were attempting
to escape they overturned and broke
the glass in their safety lamps. This
iguited the can, which exploded. Both
men were fearfully burned about tbe
face and hands, Thoy were taken from
the in in iu a critical condition with
much difficulty by a rescuing party.
At Oilberton colliery) Frank Dean,
aged 19 years, employed on the dirt
bank, was struck by lightning. He re
mained unconscious for two hours, nnd
was removed to the Miners' hospital in
u precarious condition. A watch he
carried iu bis pocket was meltod by the
fiery fluid.

Ho was so tmdly crushed that he died
within a few hours after removal.
NOT DECEIVED BY DEBS.
How tho Labor Conference in Chi
cago Was Saved from Calling
a General Strike.
Columbus, July 18 Patrick Mc
Bryde, secretary of tli United Mine
Workers, tells an interesting story of
the conference of labor leaders called
by President Gompers, of the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, at Chicago
last week, and how narrowly they es
caped being trapped into ordering a
geuernl strike of workingmen through
out the couutrv. The local trades
unions of Chicago asked that a general
strike be called and the representatives
of the brotherhoods of railway em
ployes had advised them to tbe con
trary.
While tbe conference wan hesitating
ns to what to do President Dabs, of the
American' Railway union, made his
appearance and spoke in favor of a
general strike. Thou, seeing that tbe
conference would not adopt his views,
ha produced the document uddressed
to the General Managers' association of
the railroads agreeing to call the strike
off if they would reinstate all the old
employes. The delegates realized that
if Gompers was the beaver of tbe mes
sage aud the general managers refused
to accept it tbe Federation of Labor
would bo placed in an embarrassing
position, it was resolved to tell Air.
Debs that be could name any three
gontleiLHU in the convention, who
would, with an equal number of citi
zens and Mr. Debs, call upon the board
of managers, but Mr. Gompers must
not go alone.
Hour after hour tbe conference
waited for Mr, Debs' reply, but none
came until the afternoon papers an
nouueed the fact that Mayor Hopkins
had presented the document and Unit
President D bs had dumped the confer
ence. Tbe delegates looked sheepish
when they realized that tbey had uur-
rowly escapod bring trapped luto bring
iug all the horrors of a general strike
upon the country. After a hearty
laugh they issued the document advis
ing the men to return to work and ad
jonrned to their homes wouduriug what
brought thorn to Chicago.

Of
Tie United States Takes a Hand la the Corea
REGRET AT THE ACTION OF JAPAN
A British Consul Assaulted by Japan
ese Soldiers No Apology is Made.
Chinese and Japanese Send Troops
to Protect Their Several Interests.
The Powers Are Satisfied to Allow
the United States to Adjust Difficul
ties. Washington. July 18
THE circumstantial story pub
lished simultaneous in Nw
York and Chicago tbis morning
concerning Secretary (j realism's
warning to the Janaues government to
cease harnssing Corea has enough of a
basis of fact to carry it, but is faulty
in severul details.
Tho Driuted story represents the
secretary as having been influenced by
tbe Chinese minister to write a dis
patch to go to tho Jnpaneso govern
ment expressing dissatisfaction with
the policy of Japan toward Coroa, and
closing with tbe sentence: "The
Uuited Status views with regret the
levying of an unjust war by Japan
upon a weak and defenceless nation
like Corea."
Both the Chinese and the Japanese
sent troops to Corea on the outbreak of
the revolt there, and nccoading to tue
state department's information, China
offersd to withdraw her troops if Japan
would hkewiso, although the Chinese
force on Cm-an soil is now smaller
than the Japanese, The allseed mo
tive in sending troops in both casos
was to preserve tbe lives, and
property ot Chinese and Jiipnii
eite subjects, but this need
ceased with the substantial sup
pression of the rebellion, and now Co
rea wants both her neighbors to getont
nud stay out of ber territory. Japan
insists on staying where she is, on the
ground that it is necessary to preserve
good order, one is understood also
to have dictated terms to the Core a d
government concermug the manner in
which the reveunes should be collected,
aud concerning the persons who should
be placed in curtain high Coreau ofOees
matters with which the Coreans de
clare she has no legitimate concern.
JAPAN DESIRES TOWER.
The reason of Japan's interference is
believed to be the desire of the present
executive government in Japan to sus
tain itself in power, as it is unpopular
and liable to 1 e overthrown unless a
strong national feeling can be exeited
by stirring up a broil with some other
power weak enough to be easily van
quished in a fight.
It is to save Corea from this fate that
the leading nations have taken con
certed action. The despatches sent by
the other powers to Japan cover tho
same ground as Secretary Gresuam's,
and tbe rennou our government wus
especially invited to join in the move
ment was because or the friendly rela
tions osistiug between Japan and the
United States, and the strong desire of
the Japanese to stand well with our
governnvnt and people.
The United States has made repre
sentations to China" and Janan cilcti
lated to settle the matter if the two
countries desired its good offices. It is
under.') tood tonight that both Japan
and China are satisfied that the Uuited
Statps may be deperidod upon to do
full justice to all concerned, and th
prospect for a speedy and peaceable
conclusion or Wo controversy is excel
lent.
The rumors that Japan had taken
offense at the so-called Interference of
the United States is declared to be
utterly groundless.
A BRITISH CONSUL ASSAULTED.
London, July 18. A dispatch to tho
Times from Shanghai gives tho details
of information receivgd there from
Senl, the capital of Corea, that Japa
nese soldiers recently assaulted the
British consnl at that place and his
wife, resulting in the landing of thirty
British sailors to guard the British le
gation. The consul, it is learned, wus
dragged fifty yards by tho Japanesu
soldiers and beateu by them wita their

Tdo chair of the consul's wifo was
pushed into a ditch. Tbe consul drew
up a formal complaint and sent it to
the Japanese minister, but the latter

Washington, D. C, July 13.
ITHINa very few minutes after
the conferre'-s on the tarill bill
met Mr. Vuorhees onnouriced
that it was apparent that tho
wo houses were iinablo to agree nnd
t bad been decided to report a goneral
disagreement.
Mr. Wilson stated nfter the confer
ence that he would make the report to
the liaise tomorrow morning. During
tbe informal discussion in the commit
tee room ho was iislced by Senator
Jones how long the houso would prob
ably keep tbe bill, whereupon Mr. Wil
son replied that he thought tlio
conforees would bo instructed to
nsist upon the house bill, nnd
the conferees would be sent back
withiu two hours. Tlio same
question waa then put tn Senator Jones,
and be said that tiie action of the sen
ate would deptin 1 on the action of the
house. If the houso insisted upon boap-
ng coals of fire upon tho heads of the
senate conforees and assailing them it
would lio very likely that the senate,
when that bill came back, would in
like manner debate the bill.
Although the report shows a general
disagreement on all items, this is not
technically correct, for the reason that
agreements have beou reached ou many
items but It was deemed best not to
port them until a conclnsion had
been reached ou tho whole bill.
Mr. Wilson says tho report of tho
conference will he verbal, aud will
simply state that the conference com
mittee of the two bouses bus failed to
reach an agrecm.-nt.
HOUSli CONFKKKKS AUE FIRM.
The house conforees, as was repeat
edly stuted.'bold out strictly for the
house bill, and in a groat number of
cases the senate conforees showed a
willingness to agree. The determina
tion to maintain this position by tho
house conference is still unshaken, and
it bus the heartily approval not only of
many leading Democrats in the bouse
but also of Sneaker Crisp and Prosideut
Cleveland.
The fact was not known until today
that Mr. Montgomery, of Kentucky,
one of the house conferees was in
almost nightly consultation with the
president. The latter has manifested
an eager desire to acquaint hiiuselt
with the successive steps takdii by the
conferees nud the spirit of the discus-
ons in the committee room. Tins in
formation was fully imparted to him by
Mr. Montgomery, who enjoys the full
confidence of Mr. Cleveland and Speak
er Crisp. The attitude assumwd by Mr
Montgomery in the conference fur
nishes strong denial of the recently
printed report that the president is
lukowarm in the cause of tarill reform.
It may be stated us a fact that none of
tbe house conferees were more insist
ent in favor of tbe bouxe bill thau he
nud ho is said to have repeatedly de
clared lu the conference that a bill
much more radical than that which

train, and the striking miners, who
had beeq holding out against the Co
cent rato, having beard of the
coming of the miners and depu
ties, surrounded the car, persuaded
the imported laborers not to go to work.
Tbo deputies were then ordered to
leave and threatened with violence if
they did not obey at once. The crowd
of miners ami their sympathizers con
tinued to Increase aud the deputies,
seeing that they wore in d auger, hur
ried into Confers store which was soon
surrounded by nn excited mob and
they were prisoners.
This afternoon the deputies were per
mitted to leave the store provided they
would also leave tho town, nnd being
glad to accept the oiler they were
marched to the station followed by an
angry mob of men and woman, most of
whom were armed.
Tho effort to start the Piper mines
with non-union mou has resulted in a
strike in tho mountain region. The
Luuglimin & Co., men and those in
the Mentzer mines at Ben's creek have
gone out, as have also the men in the
Bear Rock Coal company's mines.

Iusurauo Men Hero to Adjust Loss cf
Bavins & G11IH3.
A number of Mro insurance ndjustors
are in the city aud will today probably
decide on tho loss caused by the receut
explosion nnd fire iu the clothing store
of Davies & Griffin.
No facts have been discovered which
(litlinitoly prove tbe cause of the explo
sion, but from theory and a few
sources of information the majority of
tbe ad,inutors attribute the explosion to
an igniting of au nccumulutlou of gas.
The ineurance on the stock and fixt
ures, all of which wore either Imrneil or
ruined, was $37,000. Davies & Griffin
allege that the value of the stock vx
ceedwd this sum, while the ndjintors
consider that less than $10,000 will
cover tbo loss.
