; CHINESE SITUATION.
Great Brit ion Plotting to Prevent Peace
Negotiations.
Washington, March 21. Vague hints
are thrown out In diplomatic circles to
day that Great Britain will prevent, If
possible, any agreement between China
and Japan which may result In a ces
sion to the latter country of any part
of Chinese territory proper. Intima
tions are thrown out here that Great
Britain is trying to arrange with Rus
sia, Germany, Austria, Italy and
France to embarrass the peace negoti
ations should they prove too favorable
to Japan. Great Britain, it is believed,
will take no overt action alone, and It is
regarded as reasonably certain that
Russia will not Join In any concerted
movement to this end. So, us a mat
ter of fuct, it is said that the Japanese
government has no fear of any foreign
interference.
Diplomats say that Japanese dis
patches by way of London from now
until some conclusion has been reached
must be taken with considerable "salt."

The largo output of coal has not bean re
stricted. Tho cutting of prices goes on.
Stove coal lias been sold by one lending
company in New York for $2.7") per ton
and chestnut coul has been sold by an
other for 12.05.
William Stein, of Shenandoah, will be
mine Inspector of the Sixth anthracite dis
trict for another term of five years,
was chosen out of eight applicants. Mr.
Stein's examination was perfect and
showed that he had gained much during
his two successive terms us Inspector of
the Sixth district. Mr. Stein has now held
the position of mine inspector for ten
years.
The circular price for stove coal In Phil
adelphia is about SI.25 per toll, while the
actual selling price ly the Pennsylvania
and Reading has been $4 per ton, on Wy
oming coal, and $1.10 on Lehigh ooal. It
Is known, however, that concessions trotn
thes prices have recently been made, und
it Is said that orders have been taken this
week at S3.S' per ton. Purchases at even
this low prlee have made only In cases of
necessity, as the belief exists among deal
ers that lower figures will yet be reached,
unless the companies check promptly tho
decline in prices.
In past years It has been the custom to
place annual contracts for bituminous coal
on or about April 1. This year, however,
it will probably be much later, as prices
are low and the general trade In such a
condition that coal men believe it Inadvis
able to accept contracts nt this time, es
pecially as the feeling exists that bottom
has been reached in prices, ana that a
change for the better is probable. Some
of them have annonunced, therefore, that
they will keep their tlmo open until Juue
1, by which date It Is believed contracts
can be accepted on a definite basis.
If possible the presidents of the anthra
cite coal roads will meet In New York to
day. President Harris has, by letter, sug
gested such a meutlng, but he has not yet
received a sufficient number of replies to
enable him to say definitely that the
meeting will be held. Certain data have
been compiled and will bo submitted at
the meeting, but It la doubtful whether
any solution to tho present trouble In the
trade, which consists largely In dissatis
faction over the tonnage percentage, can
be Immediately reached. There Is a dis
position among the several Interests to
reach an amicable settlement, but other
wise the situation Is unchanged. It lu un
derstood that President Harris will stand
out for 21 per cent, of tho output. Tho
company continues shipping a largo
amount of coal to market, the total for
last week having been 2H5.170 tons. This
is an Increase over the preceding week of
about 20,uou tons and nn increase over the
corresiomllng week Inst year of ."k1.4i;9 tons.
For tho fiscal year to date Its shipments
aggregate 3,07.223 tons, against a.2.",:!.li;t
tons fur the same time lust year, an in
crease of :tJ4,lu9 tons.
Wllkes-Barre Record: In the course of
the next six months It Is expected that
many important changes will lie made
about the old Avondule mine of the Del
aware, Lackawanna and Western. This
mine has been steadily worked for a num
ber of years und Is one of tho oldest work
ings on the West Side. As a conse(pien?e
of this tho coal that is now being mined is
situated at a great distance from the foot
of the shaft and the ofllclals experience
much dltllculty In keeping the water down
In this portion of the mine. Home of the
pumps In the lower levels are nearly three
miles from tho holler house and the pres
sure of steam Is reduced twenty pounds In
being conveyed to these pumps and thu ef
fect of this Is that the lower workings In
the remote parts of tho mine have been
Idle most of the tlmo owing to the pumps
being drowned out. The ofllclals of thu
coal department of the Delaware, Lack
awunna and Western have been seriously
considering for some tlmo means of over
coming the trouble and have finally con
cluded that steam Is no longer practicable
In running the pumps and have decided to
run the pumps by electric power. A
oouplo of large dynumos will be placed on
the surface, which will be operated by
stenm and the power conveyed by copper
cables' to the pumps without much, If any
loss, ,
AltV 1 v.a- HIT IXJ
WITNESSESWERE LIARS
According to Mrs. Sadie Robinson,
Convicted of Murder at buffalo.
MEKCIrTL YCKD1CT BY JURY
Tho Murderers of Attorney Montgomery
Gihbs Escape tho Gallows-Mrs. Rob
inson's Dcfiunt Remarks to the
Ccurt on Receiving Sentence.
Buffalo, N. Y.. March 21. Clarence
Robinson was this morning found guilty
of murder In tho second degree, and
Sudle ltoblnson, his wife, of man
slaughter In tho first degree, Clurcnce
was sentenced to life Imprisonment, and
Sadie for twenty years.
Tho verdict was a great surprise to
all, and was thought to be more merci
ful than logical, ,
When the hush of surprise had sub
sided, ltoblnson rose to speak. He was
calm and cool. For twenty minutes hn
Kpoke In answer to the question of
Judge Hutch If he had anything to say.
Judge Mutch lu sentencing Kublnson
told him that the logical result of thu
testimony convicted him of murder In
tho first degree, but that the jury had
taken nil extremely merciful view of the
case.
Judge Hatch then commanded tho
other defendant to stand up, und Sadie
arose to her feet. lAaked If she had any
legal cause to Bhow why sentence
shuuld not be passed upon her, she an
swered: "Yes, you bet I have. I say
that must of those witnesses who have
testified here told lies, and I know that
they did. in fact, ull the testimony
was nothing but lies, und that's what I
have to Hay."
The Picture of Defiance.
Judge Hutch then addressed her, who
stood before him with flashing eyes,
her arms akimbo, looking the picture of
defiance.
"Have you anything more to say?"
"No, I have not," she replied. "I have
said all that I have to say; the wit
nesses were a pnek of liars."
The Judge then said: "The sentence
of tills court Is that you be conllned In
the woman's department ut Auburn
state prison for the term of 20 years at
hard labor."
After the words of the Judge hnd
been recorded by the court, Sadie's
sister leaned over her chair und kissed
her, and she In turn fondly kissed her
husband.
Thu crime for which the Itobifisons
were convicted was the murder of
Montgomery Uibbs, u prominent young
lawyer of llufTulo. Uibbs' body was
found on a Huffnlo pavement some
months ugo, showing evidence of foul
play.
The murder wus shrouded In mystery
Until the Koblnsons fell Into the hands
of the police and voluntarily confessed
that they had murdered (Jlbbs. Accord
ing to their stories they waylaid him
for the purpose of robbery and killed
him In thu struggle that followed.
WOKLD'S YIELD OF WHEAT.
It Hus Stcudily Incrcuscd for l our Vcars
Past.
Washington, D. C, March 21. Ad
vance figures obtained from the bulle
tin of the statistician of the agricul
tural department for March seem to
Indicate that the argument so frequent
ly made that the price of wheat Is con
stantly falling, in the face of the fact
that there hits been no increase in the
amount of wheat raised, Is erroneous.
These figures, which have been obtained
from tho most reliable sources, show n
steudy Increase In the wheat supply of
the world during thu past four years.
The annual yield has been as follows:
1VJ1, 2, 370.000.000 bushels; 1K92, 2,414.000,
000; 18M, 2,427,000,000; 1S94, 2,C!IO,000,000.
Xot withstanding the Increase bet ween
the years 1X93 and 1S94, the United
States finds Itself with a shorter sup
ply on hand March 1, IW, than ever
before. This is explained to be due
to the fact that wheat has entered so
largely Into tho food supply of ani
mals, owing to the shortage In other
crops. Uy virtue of this consumption
of wheat, hitherto unknown In this
country to any appreciable extent, there
Is less surplus to carry over than ever
before.
FELLED A WOULD.RE ROBHEK.
A Somcrville, Muss., Woman Show a Pu
gilistic Ability.
Somervllle, Muss., March 21. Mrs.
Blake Snow was Mopped by a highway
man last night on Cross street. She
was equal to the occasion, und quickly
replied:
"You want to, do you 7" As she ut
tered the words she swung her light
hand upward with considerable force.
It came lu contact with the would-be
robber's rhln and he was knocked
ugulnst a fence with such force that lu
had no breath left for continuing the
chase.
THE IltKEl'KESSIKLE KID.

There Is one young matron living on

self between her young unt und a po
tential admirer on tho sofn.
"Well, Miss Kthel," said that uncon
scious youth, nmlllug at her over his
chrysanthemum, "are you glad to see
me?"
"Oh, yes, Mr. De Lay," was the smil
ing reply; "I'm glad mamma miked
you; she snld she hated to do It, for you
were so fussy that she would be In
agony lest anything go wrong, but she
thought that maybe when you Baw how
happy und comfortable she and papa
were, you might nsk Aunt Kdlth why,
Aunt Kdlth, what Is the matter?"
