A SHORT STRIKE.
More Wages AVero AsUcil for Under a
Locked Lump litlle.
It has just leaked out that there was a
short and fruitless strike- on tho part of tlio
miners employed at the Win. l'enu colliery
on Wednesday, last.
On tho afternoon of the preceding Tuesday
tli 1 co Lithuanian minors were burned by an
xplosiou of cat In a chute. Tho air courses
and other regulations in that section of tho
mino wcro nil right and at first tho cause of
tho explosion was a mystory. An Investi
gation showed, however, that some dobiis
from tho chute had blocked tho fan piro.
The fan boy called the attention of the men
to tho fact, but they wero too busy at the
tlmo to clean out the plpo and a small body
of sas accumulated. It was ignited by tho
lamp of ono of the men and the explosion
followed.
Tho result of tho investigation led Insldo
oremau flolden to give orders to the lamp
man to give tho men in that section of tho
mino locked safety lamps. When tho men
Plicated for wotk on Wednesday morning
and wero told of the order they struck for
more wages, claiming that they would not bo
able to do as much work with tho dim light
of it locked lamp. Foieman Golden an-
eared upon the scene and said no increase
could bo. It was Btntcd that the men Hero
making fair wages under existing circum
stances and to demaud an increase of the
company might result to the disadvantage of
the mou. The striko was declared oil' and
there has been no bolt since.

0 BUILD THREE BATTLESHIPS!
House Naval Committee Will So Report A
Military Department of the South
Created-Mlnlster Be Bernabe
Says Spain Will Try to
Avert War.
Washington, March 12. Hoping1 for
the beat and prepared for tlio worst
about represents the situation In the
ar and navy departments theso days.
The officials still profess confidence
that thoro is to bo a peaceful outcome
of tho present threatening dllllcultios,
but meanwhile prepare with serenity
to meet their duty if events should
shape themselves otherwise. The most
Important and significant develop
ments of the day were the decision of
the house naval committee to place
In the naval appropriation bill a pro
vision for three new battleships and a
conclusion on the part of the secretary
of war to Issue an order creating a
new military department, Including
within Its confines that part of the
country which would In all likelihood
bo nearest to the field of hostilities In
case It should come to that.
Tho order, which was Issued this
morning, will create a commotion In
the south. The present department of
Texas Is abolished and the headquar
ters, which has been at San Antonio,
Tex., for so many years, are aban
doned. In place of the old department
s created a new ohe, the department
of the south. General Qraham, at
present commander of the department
of Texas, will command the new de
partment. This department will In
clude the states of South Carolina,
Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi,
Louisiana and Texas. All of these
states save the last are at present at
tached to the department of the east,
under command of General Merrltt, of
New York. Headquarters of the new
department will be at Atlanta, Ga.
For the first time yesterday officials
of the war department admitted that
they wero straining every nerve to lm
provo that part of the defenses of the
country confined to their care. It Is
without question the most unusual
mark of confidence In an executive of'
fleer to empower him to Klve orders
without limit for the purchase of war
material, yet this Is what the president
and Secretary Alger have done In the
case of General Flagler, chief of ord
nance. Genernl Flagler has Instructed
every concern capable of supplying war
material, such as rapid fire guns, shot,
shell and ammunition, to eo to work
at full capacity.
The navy department has now reason
to believe that it has secured the two
warships Amazonas and her sister ship,
now building In England for Brazil. It
was stated at the cabinet meeting yes
terday by Secretary Long that the
naval attache at London, Lieutenant
Colonel Well, had almost completed the
negotiations for the sale. So far, how
ever, the final notification from him
that his offer has been accepted haB
not yet reached the navy department,
Secretary Long has determined that
there shall be no wasteful extrava
gance In his department In the expend!
ture of tho funds so generously pro
ided by congress, nnd to this end he
lias addressed the following letter to the
assistant secretary of the navy, the
colonel commandant of the marine
corps, and to each of the bureau chiefs
of the navy department, Instructing
them to Incur no expense or liability
except after written statements and
estimates made by them and approved
by the president and secretary.
In anticipation of a rupture be
tween the United States and Spain,
many naval officers on the retired list
have notified the secretary of the navy
of their willingness and readiness to
perform any duty in the line of their
profession that he may deem suitable
for them. The president has power to
assign any retired officer of tho navy
to duty during the progress of war,
but he can only assign him to the com
mand of squadrons or ships by and
with the advice and consent of the sen
ate. There are army officers on the
retired list In the full enjoyment of
health and mental vigor, despite the
fact that they are over 62 years of age,
The statement was persistently cir
ciliated yesterday afternoon, and In
some cases the report came from thoso
whose sources of Information should
be reliable, that the administration
was In possession of Information that
the result of the Investigation of the
court of Inquiry as to the cause of the
Maine disaster would show that the
explosion which destroyed the battle
ship came from some external agency,
A cabinet officer was even quoted as
making this announcement, and an
other report had It that the stono
graphic notes of the Inquiry were be
fore Secretary Long. When the mat
ter was brought to the attention of
Secretary Long he pronounced the
Statement as false In every particular,

Washington, March 12. Three new
battleships of the staunchest type
afloat were authorized by the house
committee on naval affairs yesterday,
and a provision for their construction
was Inserted In the naval appropriation
bill. At the Bame time the committee
agreed on a maximum price of $100 per
ton for armor plate, for our vessels,
Increased the force ofnaval marines by
473 men, and put matters In fair shape

capable of accommodating tho largest
sized war vessels. 5
Tho new warships provided for will
be of the finest pattern, It will be two
years, doubtless, before thoy can be
Dlaced In commission, una 01 tnera
the commltteo decided, should bear the
name of the 111 fated Maine. The ap
proprlatlon for the construction was
not fixed, ueintr reierrea to me bud
committee on appropriations, which
will report to the full commltteo today
Tho cost. It Is expected, will be aliou
15,000,000 eacti, tnough for the flsral
year covered in the bill the nmount of
expenditure may not exceed $2,000,000
each. An Important question was
raised as to whether the expenditure
for the new battleships should be de
frayed out f the $50,000,000 emergency
bill, but this subject was passed over.
The committee also agreed upon a
provision authorizing the secretary of
the navy to purchase nrmor plate by
contraot or otherwise at a cost of not
exceeding $400 per ton. This was agreed
to, however, only on tho express pro
viso that this item should Include the
nickel used In the armor, for which a
large outside percentage heretofore has
been paid by the government. One of
the most Important features of the
work on the bill was an agreement on
an appropriation of $135,000 for outfit
ting, rationing nnd uniforming 473 ad
ditional marines. This Increase In the
naval force was made the subject of a
peclal and urgent request sent to the
house after tho submission of the regu
lar recommendations.
The outlook Is that four new dry
docks will be authorized, two on tho
Atlantic coast, one on the Pacific and
another on the gulf. If the present ex
pectations are materialized the docks
will be authorized to be constructed at
Boston, Mass.; Algiers, New Orleans,
Mare Island, Col., and League Island,
Philadelphia.
With the amounts to be paid for dry
docks and for armor plate, In the ag
gregate not yet determined, the bill as
It stands carries In all something like
$30,000,000, which, however, will be
largely augmented by the other Items.
Rapid progress has been made with the
bill, and It Is likely it will be In shape
to report to the house Monday or Tues
day. upposon to I'owilorly'H T'onflrmut Ion.
Washington, March 12. The commit
tee on Immigration has reported ad-
ersely upon the nomination of Hon.
T. V. Powderly to be commissioner of
Immigration. The nomination has been
held up In committee for several weeks
on account of the absence of Senator
Chandler. He having returned to
Washington, the matter was hrought
up, and the vote being taken Mr.
Chandler united with the Democratic
senators to secure an adverse repo.'t.
It is believed that the report will bo
made the basis of an animated contro
