Last Nlfrht.
WAS EMPLOYED AS A LABORER !
Without a Moment's Warning, John Kiolus'
Life WaB Crushed Out While He Was
at Ills Work In the Elian
gowan Colliery.
Tho perilous llfo of tljo toller In tho coal
mlnos is so woll known to the peoplo of the
coal region that sudden deaths in tho mines
do not excite tho interest in tbo community
which would bo otherwise arousod. Prob
ably more livesare lost by tho falling of coal
from tho roof of the mine than any other
eauso and it appears that no amount of caro
or precaution can avoid, them. An accident
of this nattiro at the Ellsngowati colliery last
ovenlng Is a striking Illustration of this
when Charles Kioluis was hurried into
eternity almost in tho twinkling of
an eye. Kioluis, who is a Lithuanian,
aged about 35 years atd siuglo, was em
ployed as a laborer at that colliery and
last night while following his vocation was
struck on tlio bead and baok by a fall of
coal which crushed his skull and seriously
hurt his. back, while his )iauds and face wero
badly cut also, lie has no near relatives in
the country, but lived with a fellow-countryman
named Salvl llelctsky, ou East
Lloyd strcot, wboro his body was removed
shortly after tho accident.

was over, the Summltllill boknew that he
had been doing some lively boxing. Peppers
kept running away frflm Honor nearly all
tho time and his actions rattled Jack greatly.
In tho first round Boudr caught a punch on
the chin as ho was off his balanco and ho
went to the floor, but whs up in a moment.
Boner had all tho best of tho second
round. After that Peppers started his ruii
uing taeties.anil tryas ho could Honor did
not sncctcd in landing an effective blow,
though at times It looked nsif ho hadl'onners
whero ho wanted him, Hut the shifty colored
mau got awny every time. Peppers got in
sovoral good blows in the Tilth round, which
was a rather warm, one. Ho had a good loft
nook, wnicli he got In on Honor's fnco, but
not on the right spot. In the sixth round
Boner had n case of Gallagher feet and ho
went to tho floor, many thinking ho was
knocked down, but bo fell through his own
clumsiness. In tho rouud Peppers would
sometimes mix it up and then ho would run
away, and at tho end of tho round Boucr
was tired chasing him up.

The Coal Trado.
Tbo Anthracite coal trade continues unlet.
and there Is very littlo now buslnoss doing at
the July circular prices. Thore is. however.
a considerable quantity of coal being moved
on old contracts. Last week, for tho first
time this yoar, many of tho collieries In tho
Anthracite fields were operated ou about
threo-quartor time. Since January 1 most of
tho miners have averaged only about
two days' work a week, and consequently
thore has beon much distress in the mining
towns. Now thoro is promise of regular
work ou at loast threo-quarter timo six days
a week until the end of this yoar. The
movement of coal last week from the
Reading Company's mince to market was re
ported to have been the largest tonnage of
any single week fur a long while past. Much
of this coal has been moved to tidewater and
otbor storage yards and to eastern distribut
ing pockets, from where it can be eonr
veniently distributed later in the seaon as
required. Tho Western Authracito trade is
quiet and 1ms not yet beeu muoh benefited
by the striko of the bituminous colliers.
The storms along tho coast during the post
week liavo seriously retarded tho movements
of vessels and consequently there is a scar
city of bottoms in lwts and freight rates
havo beon temporarily advanced from 50 to
70 cents.

THE NEW TARIFF LAW.
Twnmtpy llppnrtiiipnt HoolOjm Is Op.
oriutvp Mlilnlejlit, .Tnly ttff.
Wash'ngton,, July ST. The secretary
of the treasury holds that the new
tariff art was In effect at the beginning
of the day on which It received the ap
proval of the president, and therefore
became operative after midnight on
Friday, July 28. Assistant Secretary
Howell today sent the following tele
gram to collectors of customs: "De
partment holds that new tariff law
covers and includes all customs busi
ness of July 24."
The treasury department expects Its
decision in regard to when the Dlngley
bill went into effect to be tested In
court, but the secretary and his assist
ants nre confident that their ruling
that tho bill covered all day of Satur
day, July 24, will be upheld.
The treasury officials already have
discovered a number of Inconsistencies
In the new tariff act, some of them, It
Is feared, being Incapable of recon
dilation. It Is pointed out that sec
tion 282 places the duty on plums at
25 cents per bushel, and section 204
fixes the rate at 2 cents per pound. An
other section fixes the rate of duty on
hides of cattle at IB cents a pound, and
admits raw skins free. A question is
Involved In the classification of calf
skins, It being contended that, com
merclally, calf skins are not classed
as hides of cattle, and hencn nra nn
titled to free entry, which is believed
to be contrary to the purpose of con
gress.

THE MEETING OF OPERATORS
Arbitrators Have Hopes of Settlsmsnt at
the Meeting With the Operators.
Conference Expected to Last
Two or Three Days.
Pittbburg. July 27. Miners' Officials
Dolan and 'Warner have assured the
sheriff that the strikers had no Inten
tion of marching on the mines of the
New York and Cleveland Oac Coal
company. President Dolan said It was
not Intended to lose the sympathy of
the public by and 111 advised display
of force. "At the meeting on Thurs
day," said he "we Want no crowd
from other points. We want only our
speakers and DeArmltt's men there,
and It Is tny opinion that this plan will
be successful, if we get a good meet
ing I think we can show to the public
and the other miners that DeArmltt's
men still have manhood enough left
In them to come under our standard
and Join the strike. We have told the
sheriff that our Intentions are peace
able, and he believes us. We, there
fore, will not be Interfered with by
him or his deputies."
A body of 1,000 miners, carrying
heavy clubs, inarched to the Castle
Shannon mines at Oak Station, where
about 400 men were working, and pre
vailed upon them to come out. There
was no disorder.
Senator Hanna was In the city yes
terday. In speaking of the efforts to
settle the strike by arbitration, he said!
"I am In favor of any plan that will
better the condition of the men. That
Is the main point of the situation. That
their condition needs betterment every
body knows, and I will give my hearty
support and-co-operation to any move
ment looking toward that end. Present
methods are In many respects Inade
quate, uniformity Is lacking, and that
Is something I have always advocated."
The Sheriff of Wpntmnrnt
hns beon cnlled upon for deputies to
protect tne miners at Jthe Rostraver
mines nt Webster. The Webster com
pany proposes to start with non-union
minors today.
Tho arbitrators are highly elated at
tho prospects of the meeting of opera
tors today. All agree in saying that
It will be the largest meeting of opera
tors over held In this district. All of
the western men nre hero, and the
eastern peoplo are arriving this morn
ing. Hotel lobbies aro meeting places
for the operators already here, and tho
striko question Is being well discussed.
Whllo a largo number are 'not In favor
of the old" uniformity plan, all are
anxious to hear what new phase the
peace commissioners have glvon the
subject. Some are decidedly opposed
to uniformity, but nil are In favor of
arbitration for settlement of tho strike.
No one can at this time predict the
outcome of the conferenco which is
expected to last two and perhaps three
days.
WKST VIRGINIA MINKUS AT WORK
Tho Labor Loaders Fnllort to Draw
tho Minors Out.
Wheeling, W. Va., July 27. Eugene
V. Debs made his nppearance in Wheel
ing yesterday afternoon and was met
by a large crowd at the railroad sta
tion, Last night ho addressed a mass
meeting In the central part of the city.
The efforts to secure the public build
ing square for the meeting failed, and
the meeting took place a square away.
In speaking of the situation In the
Fairmont coal fields. Debs said he felt
encouraged. Ho says the efforts of the
organizers would have been more suc
cessful but for the fact that the oper
ators, as he claims, prevented their
men from attending the meetings.
Practical slavory, he says, exists In
the Fairmont mining region.
"Although the press may report the
miners living under favorable condi
tions in the Fnlrmont rperlnn ' bctI.1
Debs, "I have collected data from
larmers, miners and storekeepers which
shows that the mining companies cheat
their employes In the mines, at the
scales, and in the company store. The
Intimidation practiced by the operators
has prevented many from joining the
strike, but we are hopeful of ultimate
success in West Virginia."
A mass meeting was announced for
last night at New England, but none
was held, because only 25 miners had
gathered. The Injunction Issued by
Special Judge Mason seems to have put
an end to the strike here. With all
the leaders at Wheeling, the men say
there is nothing left for them to do
but to go to work. Fully 100 men took
this step at Monongah, which, with SO
men Imported from the Connellsvtlle
region, makes 180 men at work there.
The injunction Issued yesterday has
not yot been served, and the operators
think this step will be unnecessary. It
Is said many miners want to go back
to work.
The Indications are that the eoal
miners strike In the southern part of
the state Is practically over. There are
now only about 400 men out in the
Kanawaha field, about 150 out In the
New River field and possibly 500 in the
Norfolk and Western field. The strike
organizers have abandoned these three
coal fields and are leaving for other
parts.
Debs and Mahon claim that the pub
lished reports 0f the strike being a
failure at Fairmont nra inrNu,
Debs savs he Is In nnispailnn nf
hie advices to the effect that the strik
ers vesterda received Imnw ..ra..
slona. -If the efforts of the agitators In
west Virginia has really been a fall
ure, It Is believed that the railroad
conductors, firemen and brakemen will
be asked to refuse to handle West Vir
ginia ooal.
The strike In the Fairmont district,
which Ratehford predicted would be
general yesterday, has proved a flat
failure. After days of vigorous effort
by Debs, Mahon, Coslett, Miller and
Ratchfurd, the miners at Fairmont re
main unshaken.
