THE STRIKE GROWING. More Collieries Are Now Stand ing Idle. Ilnzleton, Pa., Sept. 19. —John Mitch ell, president of the United Mine Work ers of America, is in a jubilant mood. Great progress has been made by the strikers in the anthracite coal regions, and several important mines which were in operation Monday have been closed. In other places there was a substantial decrease in the working forces, and the labor leaders enthusiastically reported that by the close of the week not one member of the great artny of mine work ers would be in the collieries. The mine owners remained equally confident of success and freely predicted that the strike would quickly couie to un end. They insisted that many of the men who had been induced to quit work had done so agninst their will and bad already shown signs of weakening, real izing that the sentiment of the entire community was against them and that the only possible outcome would be suf fering for those whom they bold dearest on eartlp Berore in'augurafing 'what he declared would be the greatest strike in history Mr. Mitchell had been advised that his order would be universally obeyed iii the upper and lower unthracite regions and that the debatable ground lay about Lla zleton. This city became the headquar ters of the agitation, and although the business men discountenanced the move ment and tried to create suspicion of the leaders invading this territory great in roads have been made upon the local operators. Strikers' Grip Tightened. Wilkesbarre, Pa., Sept. 19.—The grip of the strikers on the Wyoming district was tightened yesterday, and they are proceeding with confidence and enthusi asm to tie up the two mines where work is being done. At one, the Hoyt shaft of the Pennsylvania Coal company at Pitts ton, they are succeeding; at the other, the West End, at Mocanaqua. they have made no impression. At Pittston by elo quence and persuasion they prevented work at No. 6 colliery of the Pennsylva nia Coal company, which operated Mon day, and they shut up the No. 9, after a brave attempt had been made for two hours to keep it going. The company finally gave in and sent the men home. Train Crow Hold It epoii m! lle. New York, Sept. 19. —Conductor Frank Proper and Rear Brakeman George Don ovan of train No. 90 of the Ilarlcm Riv er division of the New York Central rail road, which was run into by a train fol lowing it at Kensico a few weeks ago, have been arrested at Dover Plains.

It was alleged that they did not send back a red light to warn the second train when their train stopped at Kensico depot. The charge aguinst the two men is man slaughter in the second degree, and they were held uuder bonds of $3,000 each for the grand jury. German Lloyd May Not Rebuild.

J., who is an expert ou pier building and the shipping business of the port of New York. lie has boon summoned to Bremen by the officials of the North German Lloyd Steamship compauy.

Y., Sept. 19.—Miss Cora Crow, an attendant of the State hospital at Ogdensburg, came to this city to take Hannah Faliy, an adjudged in sane woman, to that institution.

STILL FINDING BODIES More Than Three Hundred Re covered Yesterday. EVEEYBODY 13 NOW AT WOEK, Clearing Up Q f Dcbrla on Streets Goes on Kapldly Cong r<*Mmu n Hawley Wants to Ilnlld a $17,000,- 000 Sea Wall For tlie City, Galveston. Sept. 10.—'The work of ex tricating bodies from the mass of wreck ago in this city still continues. Yester day more than 300 bodies were taken out of the debris which lines the beach. With all that has been done to recover bodies burled beneath or jammed into this im mense rift the work has scarcely started. There is no time to dig graves, and the bodies are consigned to the flames. Vol unteers for this work are coining in fast. Men who have heretofore avoided the dead under ordinary conditions are now working with a vigorous will and energy in putting them away. Under one pile of wreckage 20 bodies were taken out and burned. In another pile a man pull ed out the remains of two children. For a moment he gazed upon them and then immediately cast them into the tire. They were his own flesh and blood. lie watched them in silence for a time and then resumed his work with others in recovering bodies. A large force of men is still engaged in removing the dead from Hurd lane, about four miles west of the city. At this point the water rose to the height of 14 feet, and up in trees and barbed wire fences are the bodies of men, wo men and children, which are being col lected and burned as rapidly as possible. On the mainland the searching for bodies it being prosecuted vigorously. Reports received from Bolivar, where between 300 and 400 bodies were reported as ly ing strewn along the beach, are that they are being buried as rapidly as pos sible. The man bringing the report says that the force is inadequate and should be increased immediately. The manner of disposing of the wreck age in this city has not yet been decided definitely. At present every energy is used in getting at all of the dead, open ing streets, cleaning alleys and gutters and disinfecting the city. When this is done, the removal of the immense drift of debris will begin. Everything is in readiness to turn on the current for the electric lights in the business part, but because of the danger from hanging 1 wires on the circuit lighting will he post poned indefinitely. Three telephone wires are now working between Galves ton and Houston. CoiigrPKH May Help Galveston. Congressman Hawley, representing the Galveston district, has expressed himself in favor of a sea wull being built around Galveston extending from the jetty to a point seven miles west along the beach front. Ilia idea is to construct the wall of solid material with a 25 foot base, 8 foot crown and capped with the heuviest granite blocks, to be nine feet above mean lpw tide, lie estimates it to cost about $17,000,000. When he leaves for Washington, he will take the matter up with the proper authorities and will also confer with the war department with a view to rebuilding the fortifications which were destroyed. Clara Bartou, president of the Red Cross society, lias issued an appeal for money and supplies for the sick aud wounded. Her idea is to spend some of the money with local merchants wherev er practicable. She and her assistants are doing excellent work. Fifty bodies drifted ashore yesterday at Roll Over on the gulf coast about 20 miles east of Galveston. Some of them were buried and others burned. Among the messages received by the general relief committee was one from Colonel Thomas Ochiltree, former mem ber of congress from this district ami at one time resident of Galveston. Colonel Ochiltree is in London and says that he will use every personal effort to hurry subscriptions to the stricken city. Chair man Davidson of the relief committee says that the greatest sufferers from the storm are those people who owned lots and by giving a lieu upon them had homes constructed. Now their property is swept away. The loan companies are protected by the liens. Mr. Davidson ad vised that a fund be raised for people who have suffered In this way so that they may be able to restore what took them years to accumulate and was taken from them in a single night. A. Holzmau. representing Feder, Holz inan & Co. of Cincinnati, purchasers of the sewerage bonds of the city of Gal veston to the amount of .$200,000, has arrived here. lie consulted with city officinls as to whether the city intended to construct a sewage system in accord with plans adopted prior to the storm. 110 received assurances from them that the storm in no way would affect the construction of the system and just as soon as possible work would commence. Mr. ITolzman said his firm stood ready to abide by their contract and had every confidence in Galveston's future. Fifty thousand dollnrs has already been paid into the hands of the city treasurer, and the remainder of the money is to he paid. TPHlnn to Hi- II ii ii it lit k Soon. W. B. Grozclose, assistant general freight agent of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas, reached Galveston from St. Louis last evening. He says the "Katy" railroad will begin to receive grain for shipment to Galveston on Sept. 22. A large force of incn is engaged repairing one of the railroad bridges over Galves ton bay, and it is the opinion of railroad men that trains will be running into the city on Friday. The resources of the numerous sub felief stations scattered throughout the city are taxed to their utmost capacity. Long lines of people await their turns for provisions and clothes. At Texas City a force of deputy United States marshals under Marshal Grant is guard ing the entrance to Galveston and keep ing out all people who can have no good reason for desiring to come in. People are daily leaving the city, a majority be ing women and children. The city is still under military rule and will remain so indefinitely. Idlers and sightseers who eluded the guards on the mainland upon their arrival here are impressed in street service. This is no place for a man who will not work. It is work or go to jail, and the idlers generally go to jail. A force of men under the supervision of the sheriff's department is at work about eight miles down the island remov ing the dead from the bayous and swamps. Mnny bodies were found high and dry on the prairie, left there by the receding waters. To secure legal evi dence of death an otiice has been estub | lisliod wfiere any and all persons possess ing legal evidence of the death of any | person in connection with the recent dis- I aster at Galveston are required to ap pear and make affidavit to this effect. It ! is desired to at once collect as much au thentic evidence as possible for future j legal reference iu matters of inheritance and insurance. MANY VESSELS WRECKED.

Portsmouth, N. IL, Sept. 19.—The in itial day's celebration of the presenta tion of commemorative tablets to the Kearsarge and Alabama, although usher ed in by gloom and storm, nevertheless proved a great success through the for tunate clearing of the weather, and the two bronze tablets are now iu the cus tody of the commanding officers of the great battleships. The exercises on shore, however, wore a great success, and the different speech es by prominent officials were warmly received by a large gathering. Mayor Edward E. Mclntyre opened the proceedings with an address of wel come and then introduced General Charles 11. Burns of Wilton as president of the day. Mr. Burns spoke at length of the significance of the occasion and then presented Miss Mary Thornton Da vis of Boston, niece of Lieutenant Thoruton, executive officer of the old Kearsarge, and Mrs. Henry Bryan of Alabama, daughter of Rear Admiral Semmcs of the old Alabama. Miss Da vis unveiled the tublets destined for the Kearsarge, while Mrs. Bryan performed a like service for the Alabama. BASEBALL SCORES. Raaalta of Yeaterdny'a Gnmea In the Different I.eavnea.

Punishment of Chinese Leaders Indispensable Peace Condition. GERMANY ISSUES A STRONG NOTE. Sent to All tlie Chnncelrle*—l^ord Sallabnry Warn* I.i Hung Chanß. Count Von Wulderitee Arrive* at Iloiijfkong. Berlin, Sept. 10. —The foreign office has Bent a circular note to all the powers an nouncing that the German government considers that an indispensable prelim inary to the beginning of peace negotia tions with China is the delivering up of those who were responsible for the out rages. The text of the note is as follows: "The government of the emperor holds as preliminary to entering upon diplo matic relations with the Chinese govern ment that those persons must be deliver ed up who have been proved to be the original and real instigators of the out rages against international law which have occurred at Peking. "The number of those who were mere ly instruments in carrying out the out rages is too great. Wholesale execu tions would be contrary to the civilized conscience, aud the circumstances of such a group of leaders cannot be com pletely ascertained. But a few whose guilt is notorious should bo delivered up and punished. The representatives of the powers at Peking are in a position to give or bring forward convincing evi dence. Less importance attaches to the number punished than to their character as chief instigators or leaders. "The government believes it ran count on the unanimity of all the cabinets In regard to this point, insomuch as indif ference to the idea of just atonement would be equivalent to indifference to a repetition of the crime. The government proposes, therefore, that the cabinets concerned should instruct their repre sentatives at Peking to indicate those leading Chinese personages from whose guilt in instigating or perpetrating out rages all doubt is excluded." The note has been sent to the German embassies at Washington, London, Par is, St. Petersburg, Koine, Vienna and Tokyo. ItcnNon For the Note. The publication of the note, which was made through the Noiildeutsche Allgo meine Zeituug. was decided upon because it was deemed best to let the world see that Germany had nothing to hide re garding her real aims in China. The diplomatic corps here so interprets ft. The note shows also that Count von Billow's sober and moderate views re garding the Chinese muddle aud its solu tion have now triumphed over Emperor William's more expansive plans. The leading Gorman papers approve the note. The Freisinnige Zeitung, call ing particular attention to the passuge declaring that wholesale executions would be contrary to the civilized conscience, will say: "This is in striking contrast with Em peror William's instructions to the de parting troops to spare no one aud to make no prisoners." THE BOER WAR. A Pitched Buttle Fouaht Near Koo luatipoort. London, Sept. 19.—The Daily Tele graph publishes the following from Lou renco Marques: "A pitched buttle has been fought midway between Ivaap Mai den nnl Hector spruit, resulting in heavy Boer losses. The Boers removed anil now threaten to destroy the cogwheels of locomotives used between Watervnlboven unci Watervalonder, without which the railway cannot be worked. They have blocked and damaged the railway for six miles on the Crocodile Poort section, have destroyed the culverts and the Hec tor Spruit bridge and looted and burned Komatipoort. The British are now at Komatipoort, and heavy fighting is pro ceeding. It is rumored that Mr. Steyn has arrived here." Lord Roberts reported from Machado dorp under date of Monday that u few minor skirmishes had taken place be tween the British troops and the Boers. He added that General French had cap tured 50 locomotives, in addition to the 45 locomotives and other rolling stock which lie took when he occupied Barber ton Thursday and that General Stephen son was expected to occupy Xelspruit during Monday afternoon. General Pole- Carew has occupied Ivnnp Muiden, about 20 miles cast of Xelspruit, where he cap tured a number of locomotives and a con siderable quantity of rolling stock. Fatal Fend. Madison ville, Tcnn., Sept. 19.—The Howard-McGee feud has had a tragic cli max, in which one man was killed, two others fatally and one seriously wounded.

A moment later Calvin and Tom Howard entered the room and met the Jones brothers face to face.

When the firing ceased, Charles Jones was found dead on the floor with two bullet wounds in the heart and three in the head.

Hilt Wall Street Failure. New York, Sept. 19.—The announce ment is made on the Stock Exchange of the suspension of Hatch & Foote. The story which is interwoven in the facts leading up to the assignment is one of the strangest that Wall street men of this generation have heard. Both Mr. Hatch and Mr. Foote were clerks in the old investment house of Fisk & Hatch, which did a large business in government bonds 50 years ago. In 1807 they form ed a partnership, but not until three years later did they become a Stock Ex change house. Mr. Daniel B. Hatch was the board member. Mr. Foote had charge of the accounts. Like the firm in which they received their early training, they did a quiet business and were locat ed under the Fourth National bank, on Nassau street. Up to now they hud been regarded as one of the substantial houses of the street.
