END OF STRIKE
IS IN SIGHT
Break in Operators' Ranks
Has Come at Last.
Settlement Rumors Coming
Thick and Fast From the
Inside Circles of the Two
Opposing Forces.
That the anthracite operators of
Pennsylvania are preparing to make as
dignified a settlement of the strike as Is
possible under the circumstances is no
longer a secret, and the Item in Friday's
issue of this paper, giving the first an
nouncement of the rumor, has been
proven by developments of the past few
days to bo correct.
The operators havo discovered that
tiio closely-guarded conferences of the
presidents of the coal roads havo not
been surrounded with the secrecy which
it was thought existed. Their agents
have learned that every move determin
ed upon at these gatherings has been
checkmated by the minors. They have
also discovered that every contemplated
move of the operators has been made
known to the union leaders.
Th's information, coming back to the
gentlemen who had given their word
that the movements of the operators
were to remain unknown, has had a
depressing effect upon the coal barons,
and a feeling of distrust and a suspicion
of double-dealing havo cropt into the
conferences, which havo nover been a
u.vlt on tho methods adopted to conduct
the strike.
The present is not tho time for a de
tailed account of the breaking down of
tho operators' defense, nor is it neces
sary now to give further information on
the subject. Tho public at largo and
the miners and their families are inter
ested only in a termination of tho strug
gle which will bo honorable to tho strik
ers.
That termination is now in sight and
will bo attained if the mine workers
present for a short while longer that
same solid and unyielding front that
has marked their conduct for the past
thirteen wooks.
David R. James, operator and owner
of tho Cambridge mine, South Shenan
doah, says in today's North American:
•'You may safely predict that tho an
thracite striko will end in some mauner
before September 15. No one can tell
whether tho end will come through a
break in the ranks of the striking mine
workers or through arbitration or com
promise, but it is certain beyond all
question that the mines will open. No
attempts will be made to open any mine
in tills region until September 1. These
attempts will be of the most determined
character, and upon the result will de
pend the success or the failuro of the
strike."

FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, AUGUST 11, 1902.
has been very unfriendly to the strikers
and heretofore ridiculed all rumors of
peace, says:
"Tho coal road presidents will meet
on Tuesday in Now York, when revised
reports from all parts of the region will
bo discussed, and it is understood that
an informal statement will be given out
showing the prosent output of coal and
placing the responsibility for the coal
famine upon tho striking minors. Strike
leaders here insist that terms of settle
ment will bo considered at this meeting,
and that a settlement will be effected on
or before Septembor 1.
"Shamokin operators and business men
are of the opinion that tho miners' striko
will be ended within the next week or
two. Business men believe that both
operators and strikers are tired of the
battle and are about to meet each other
half-way."
Socialists Deliver Addresses,
Soveral hundred men rosponded to the
call of tho Socialist party to attend a
mass meeting at Krell's hall Saturday
afternoon. Tho meeting was addressed
by W. R. Dettrey, of Nuremberg, a
member of tho executive board of Dis
trict No. 7, U. M. W. of A., who spoke
on tho strike question, and by Charles L.
Moore, of Philadelphia, an organizer of
tho Socialist party.
Both addrossos wero well received by
the uudionce and many who were pres
ent expressed themselves favorably to
the movemont. The meeting was pre
sided over by Charles Jacquott, chair
man of the Central Labor Council of
Freeland and Vicinity.
The local leaders of tho now party
predict that the candidates nominated
by tho Socialists for state, county and
district public offices will poll a surpris
ingly heavy vote in and around Free
land. Soino of them venture tho opin
ion that the county will bo swept noxt
November by tho Socialist ticket and
that at least five of the six legislative
districts will be carried by them.
However that may he, there is no
denying the fact that the party Is gain
ing many now recruits. Tho majority
of these were formerly identified with
tho Democratic party, although it is
said that in other sections of tho county
formor Republicans comprise tho ma
jority of followers of tho movement.
Death at the Sanitarium.
Tho lirsb death of a male patient at
tho White Haven Consumptive Sani
tarium occurred yesterday, when John
York, of Mt. Carmel, expired. Tho
deceased was admittod to tho institution
ab>ut five months ago, and although he
was then informed by Dr. Flick, the
prosident, that the disease had obtained
too firm a hold upon his system to give
any hope for his recovery, ho insisted
upon taking tho treatment. Tho opin
ion of tho sanitarium physicians was
borne out yesterday, wheu the patient
breathed his last.
Some time ago a female patient, who,
like Mr. York, was in the last stages of
consumption when admitted, died at the
hospital. Theso two have been the
only deaths that havo taken place at
tiie sanitarium sinco it was opened.
On tho other hand, hundreds of men
and women whose lives were boiDg
slowly sapped away by the dread dis
ease have been discharged after taking
the treatment and are as strong and
hearty today as they wore before their
affliction.
Brother Dead in the West.
Mrs. ltulh A. Dodson, Walnut slruot,
received a telegram Saturday afternoon
Informing her of tho doath of ber
brother, John L. Stewart, at his home
in Fruitland, lowa. Tho dispatch stat
ed that he was killed by a railroad train
Saturday morning.
Mrs. Dudsou Immediately departed
for Fruitland, and will reach that town
today. Tho funoral will probably take
place there, although there Is a possi
bility that tho remains may bo brought
for Interment to Wilkosbarro, whore he
spent the early part of his life.
Mr. Stewart went westward forty
olght years ago, locating in Jowa, where
ho won success and became a prominent
citizen. 110 would havo ruached the
ago of 75 yoars had ho lived until yestur
day. Mr. Stewart was a widower and
leaves no children.
Coray Quits Politics.
Representative Elisha A. Coray, of
West Pittston, the anti-Quay leader in
the last legislature, and anti-machine
nominee for state treasurer last Novom
ber, has retired from politics, and is
devoting all his time to religious work.
Coray is taking an active part in tho
Young Men's Christian Association
movement in this state, and has advised
his friends in the Second district that
under no circumstances will he again
bo a candidato for the assembly or any
other public office.

Ball Players 111-Treated,
Tho Good Wills base ball club, accom
panied by a number of their admirers,
went to Berwick on Saturday to play
the club of that town. A feeling of
intense rivalry developed at the outset
among tho spectators, the supporters of
each club vicing with one another iu
urging on their favorite team to win.
In tho soventh inning, with tho score
7 to 4 in favor of Berwick, one of the
special police officers on tho ground
committed an unwarranted assault upon
a Freeland young boy for tooting a horn.
Tho action was immediately resented
by the lad's friends, and.in a short
while a general froe fight was in prog
ress.
Tho Berwick adherontg wero having
things their own way when several of
tho strikers from Freeland and nearby
towns, who aro working at Borwick,
took a hand in tho scrimmago and rout
ed the Borwick putnmelers in a manner
which will not be soon forgotton by
those who wero so unfortunate as to
como into contact with the coal-marked
fists.
Tho Freeland boys regret tho occur
rence, but claim they wero in no way to
blame and had to dofend themselves
against a mob of discourtoous rowdies
whom tho Berwick police refused to
suppress and whoso taunts and assaults
are wholly rospousible for the affair.
The fourth suspect in connection
with tho murder of Danioi Sweeney,
tho Bliss mino watchman who wa3
found dead with his skull fractured
last Wednesday morning, was placed
undor arrest Saturday morning at his
homo In Hanover township. His name

At a meeting of tho Democratic coun
ty committee on Saturday Attorney W.

Of the City Coffticil, Wilkes
barre, Pa., Cured of |
Rheumatism,
Col. Wm. J. Harvey, a president of
Wilkesbarre's city council, who will
long be romeinbered for his great work
for the city, was once a mere physical
wreck, torn in every muscle and nerve
from the frightful pains caused by rheu
matism. lie consulted the best physi
cians, wont abroad, took mud baths,
and almost every known treatment for
the disease. One of the city officials
had had a very similar experience and
Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy
had cured him, so ho recommended this
great kidney medicine to his friend,
and Col. Harvey is tyday a well man,
halo and hearty. In his own abrupt
way ho states his case: •
Dr. David Kennedy,
Dear Sir:—This is to certify that 1
was permanently cured of rhouma- j
tism by the use of Dr. David Ken- ■
nedy's Favorite Remedy.
Win. J. Harvey. •
Nothing could be more direct or more
to the point than this simple statement.
Rheumatism is but another name for
uric acid poisoning which is caused pri
marily by diseased kidneys. Cure your
kidneys and the rheumatism disappears.
For all diseases of the kidneys, liver,
bladder and blood, rheumatism, dyspep
sia and chronic constipation, as well as
sicknesses peculiar to women, Dr. David
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is unques
tionably the greatest medicine known to
iho medical profession.
