KEEP OUT OF AFRICA.
Sir Alfred Mllner Warns Tourists
That It-Is No Place for Women.
London, April 15. Joseph Chnmber
laln, sectotary of state for the colonies,
has lecelvcd the following despatch
fiom Sir Alfred Mllner. Hrltlsh high
commissioner In South Africa:
"The number of visitors to South
Africa Is constantly lnct easing and In
cludes, many, especially ladles, who
seem to have no particular call of duty
or business
"I nm sine that this would not he
the case It It weie ic.illzed at home
that visitors who. In ordinal- times,
would bo most welcome, may, under
existing conditions become a serious
soni ce of Inconvenience, Interfering
with the. work of the mllltnty and civil
oillcets and putting a stialn on our
limited means of accommodation,
which are urgently required for those
who have duties to perform hete or
who are Invalided from the ftont.
"A lonsldetnble Increase In the ex
pense of living at nil times high Is
caused by this excessive Inllux of vlsl
tots, nnd this Is a hardship to peisons
of the latter class."
After saying that thete Is no plnco
less suitable for recieatlon than South
Afilca at present, Sir Alfred Mllner
concludes as follows:
"Lord Itobetts, to whom I have sub
mitted this message, authorizes me to
add that he fully concurs In the views
exinetsed."
ANTHRACITE TRADE.
The Business Is Dull, According to
the Ledger Coal Article.
Philadelphia, April 15. The Ledger
coal attltie tomottow will say
The anthracite coal trade continues
dull, the maiket, with the progress of
spilng, taking less coal and tho dealers
ordeilng veiy sparingly. The com
panies ato radically restricting the out
put, most of the collieries having been
Idle for several days, and this will con
tinue till the close of the Kaster holi
days. Thete Is u gtadual accumula
tion of unsold stocks, and while the
onfotivd cuttailment of the output has
brought It down to nenily a million
tons less than In the lltst quarter of
1S09. yet ther" seems to have been still
too much coal mined and even more
radical testrlctlon Is necessary.
Lake navigation shows signs of open
ing, and this, when started, will make
a demand for shipment to the lake
ports, which ate generally very bare In
the noithwest, and thus some of the
coal may be moved. The companies
tiio In a hopeful mood, and expect bet
ter business a tho season advances.

DEWEY'S MISTAKE.
Opinion of ex-Secietary Algei An
Action Ill-advised.
Detmit, Apiil 13. "I think Admiral
Dewey has made a giavo mistake in
announcing his candidacy for the
presidency," said ex-Secretary of War
Alger, In the course of an Interview
today
"It looks as though the wealth of
praise showered or the admiral since
Ills return from the east has tinned
his head. It Is harder to resist pros
peiltv than adveisltv. I feel sorry for
him for his ambitions will certainly be
unfulfilled.
"Ills action is ill-advised. I predict
for him In his presidential nsplrntlons
a melan-'lioly disappointment."

A teport reached hero at 10 o'clock
tonight that the conference In New

about the settlement of the strike, and
that ttoops have been ordered to como

ly parsed to the strikers, who lutstlly
gathered on the Doweiy to discuss the
situation.
The strikers were much excited. An
gelo Holelln, tho leader, when Informed
of the fact that the troops nad been
ordered out, was much peiturbed nnd
downcast. He said:
"Only some of our men arc armed,
but they will all bo arined In the morn
ing. We will resist every attempt by
the contractors to renew tho work to
inonow with strnngo men. and we will
fight If necessary until the troops get
here. They can keep the troops here
for two months, but we can afford to
wait six months, nnd the contractots
will bo sorry when the tioops go
away."
ANOTHER STRIKE.
Seven Hundred Piedmont Miners
Will Go Out Today.
Piedmont, W. Vn., April 13. Seven
hundred miners employed bv th"
Davis Coal and Coke company, in this
section of tho Elk gaidcn mining re
gion, have voted unanimously to strike,
nnd will not t center the mines titnor
row. Like their brothets of the Georges
C'teek legion, the miners demanded bO
cints per ton. The miners Involved are
the Trinklln Big vein, Franklin Gas
coal, and the Six f'oot vein in Mary
land, nnd the Hunipshlro JiU vein and
Hampshire Gas coal, and the Six Foot
and Pour Toot ve'.nn in West Virginia
Oll'cl'ils of the company urged tho
men to arbitrate their iliffeMnces and
onetd to pay the men wb.ute.vor the
operators of the Georges Creek region
decided ns the scale to prevail In that
legion for the cut lent year. Speaking
of the Dltu-itlon Geneinl Manager
Landstiee, of the Davis Coal and Coke
company, sal 1:
"Theie is no leason to fear a coal
famine or a great Increase In the prlco
of coal Some regions have been un
able to maiket their products because
of lack of motive iowcr nnd cars. The
tran porta Hon facilities made Idle by
these fifikei will be sent up to such
at the Fairmont legion", to carry tho
coal pioduct j there, and there will be
as mud: coal on the market as ever,
but the quality ma not be quite so
good. 1 now hae In my possession
an olfer Mom one of the greatest coal
dims in tho country offcilng to accept
the contracts of the Davis Coal and
Coke company, so wv have no fear of
being unable to till all contracts. In
my tulk .with the men this nfternoon I
attempted to explain something to
them, tr to the differentials In freight
rates, but they were not there to listen
to reason or anything else. They were
there to slrlko."
According to a mining espert here
the strikes will not materially affect
the general output of coal and there
should bo no fear of a coal famine.
MILLIONAIRE SHOT.
Rufus Wiight Killed While Strug
gling for a Revolver.
Chicago, April 13. Rufus Wiight, thu
mllllonuhe manufacturer of rubber
tires, who was shot dutlng a scuffle for
the possession of n revolver. In the
apartments of Mrs. Loulsla Lottridqe
at the inland hotel, died todav from
the effects of the wound. A statement
by the deceased to Chief of Detectives
Colleran that the shooting was acci
dental will, It is thought, clear Mr?.
Lottrldge of all responsibility.
Wright died with words of exculpa
tion on his lips for the woman whosa
levolver was responsible for his death.
He peislsted In saying that the woman
was not to blame for his condition, nnd
that he had the revolver In his hand
when it was discharged.
Mr. Wright's son-in-law and pattner.
Fred Morgan, was at his side at his
death. Mr. Morgan held that his
father-in-law was on nn errand to help
a. friend, who had become entangled
with tho woman, when he received his
death wound.
Although he admits he can offer no
evidence. Chief of Detectives Colleran
sttongly believes that the w canon wai
not In the hand of Wright when It was
discharged. A cateful examination of
the position of the wound, he says, will
show that It would be Impossible for
Wright to have held the weapon In his
hand. Captain Colleran says, also, that
Mis. I.ottildge said she could not le
member w hether the weapon was In
her hand or In Wright's. He also cites
the fact that Wright's beard is not
singed, as It would have been If a
weapon had been discharged close to
his head; his face Is not marked with
powder; In fact, Captain Colleran saya,
there Is nothing to show that he held
a levolver close to his face.
