men to go but.k to woik.
The pregiamme of the ntrlkerit la to
muke another inarch on the Allison
mine. The leaders sny that more than
2.ono dlci'.-is would be massed In the
F'anhnndie dletrlct and nnottier marc-h
made on the mines. The minora of the
ranhiindle dlidriet are gathering above
Hildirevilie, and it will not be eui pris
ing if LOW) nilnein are found on the
Washington pike. The men in the Mil
lets and Tonm run districts are all Idle
and have plenty of time to moke an
other mareh. Th'-y were supplying
themselves, with several day' ration,
and If the propost d march is made they
will stay about the offendluK mines foi
seveial days.
Pp to a late hour no word relating to
a march had been received at ' district
headquarters. If the march la made,
the time will be kept a secret.
Just at this stage of the strike sensa
tional developments are expected. The
men are beginning to feel the pangs ot
want and are In a condition bordering
on desperation.
It has been learned that organizers
have been secretly at work among the
miners of the New York and Cleveland
Gas Coal company for several days.
One of them was served with an in
junction to remain off the company'?
property and leave the men alone. He
said that he had been at work among
the men at Plum Creek and expressed
great hopes of being able to have them
Join the general suspension. As near as
can be learned a concerted effort will
he made In the near future to bring out
the men at Turtle Creek, Sandy Creek
and Hum Creek mines.
Just what procedure wiil be resorted
to has not yet been decided on. The of
ficials feel that In order to make th
strike a BUceess in this district these
miners must bo brought out. They ad
mit they have a difficult Job on their
hands, as Te Ainiltt s men seem deter
mined to remain at work. The mines
are running to their fullest, extent and
are supplying a large quantity of coal
to the trade.
The coal market has been quiet. Much
coal was offers-d at $1.25 a ton. Slack
took a big Jump and sold for RB cents
a ton. Ilefore the strike it was sold at
40 cents a ton. There nre hundreds of
tons ef slack coal at the mines In the
Pittsburg district, but the miners' offi
cials will not permit any of It to be
los ded.
A number of striker. Interfered with
men who were loading from barges Into
cars coal that had been purchased by
W. H Summonds. a dealer from C.
Jutte A Co. The men were compelled
to quit work. Minora' Secretary War
ner disapproved of the action and Is
sued orders to the strikers to molest no
men who are handling coal that was
njlued before the strike was Inau
gurated. The Hit. ml Ion la West Virginia.
Wheeling, July 21. The reports from
the various coal districts of this state,
which Is now apparently the pivotal
point In the great strike, are of a varied
character. The mine owners and oper
ators claim that the efforts of Debs and
other emissaries of the United Mine
Workers now campaigning here have
hopelessly failed to get the West Vir
ginia diggers to leave the pits and that
where they have gone out they have
promptly returned to work as soon as
the agitators have left. On the other
hand, Debs and his associates claim to
have made substantial accessions to the
number of strikers here and assert
that by the end of the week all the
mine ot the mute will be practically
closed.
The Fairmont managers declare that
If the Watson men, about 1,000 In num
ber, can he kept at work, the other
mints will be working Thursday aa
usual. Delis spoke at Hlvesvllle laet
night to the Watson men, but he ai
not so successful aa at Fairmont, and
no union was organized. The Watsons
and their men are on excellent terms,
and neither aide has any grievance.
They lead the region In production and
profits and have the miners tied up In
agreeable contiacts to purchase cheap
homes and to furnish necesdarles In
alt knees and death.
It transpires that Debs has been
shadowed by two Plnkerton men and
that he haa been threatened with death
If he goes to Kanawha. He wlil go,
however, tomorrow. A gang of 150 Ital
lans are expected to arrive at Fairmont.
They were to have worked on a new
railroad, but will try mining.
In the Kanawha valley there is no
material change, the success of the
organizers at one point being offset by
resumptions at others.
Governor Atkinson, who Is now here,
thinks the strike will become general
and hopes the men will win. He says
he has not been consulted about using
the military and that none but the
most violent outbreak would call for Its
use. The Glendale miners, near Wheel
ing, came out yesterday, and they
threaten to march upon the Iioggs Hun
mine today, and this will cause trouble.
There Is no cessation of coal shipments
nor is there Interference, trainload after
tratnload passing through Ohio.
Notwithstanding desertions among the
miners in tiie Fulrmont district, large
quantities of West Virginia coal are
passing through Wheeling for the weal
and lakes. There has been no repetltiuu
of the driving of Bplkes into frogs on
the Wheeling and Lake Erie, which oc
curred on Monday, and the miners' offi
cials in the eastern Ohio district are
strenuous in their denial ot any knowl
edge ot tha act. So far there Is no clew
to the perpetratoi s.

The Sugar Schedule.
The schedule which has excited the
greatest Interest and over which there
has been the most acrimonious discus
sion is that relating to sugar.
The sugar schedule agreed upon Is
neither the house schedule nor the sen
ate schedule, but an entirely new one.
It will provide more revenue by from
$2,000,0(10 to 13,000,000 than the schedule
originally presented to the conference.
It reads as follows:
"Sugars not above No. 16 Dutch
standard In color, tank bottoms, sirups
of cane. Juice, melada, concentrated
ntelada, concrete and concentrated mo
lasses, testing hy the polariscope not
above 76 degrees, 9r-l,000 of 1 cent per
pound, and for every additional de
gree shown by the polarlscoplc test 85
1,000 of I cent per pound additional, and
fractions of a degree In proportion, and
and on sugar above No. 16 Dutch stand
aid In color and on all sugar which has
gone through a process of refining 1
rent and 95-100 of 1 cent per pound;
molasses testing above 40 degrees and
not above R6 degrees. 3 cents per gal
lon; testing 56 degrees and above, 6
cents per gallon. Sugar drawings and
sugar sweepings shall be subject to duty

be, according to polarlscoplc test "
Conference Report In the Senate.
Washington, July 21 The tariff con
ference report has been presented to
the senate, though but little progress
has thus, far been made on It beyond
the formal reading of about two-thirds
of the report. There is no Indication of
when the final vote will be reached.
-Mr. Tillman (Dem.) of South Caroli
na openly threatened a filibuster until
next December If cotton bagging and
cotton ties were hot restored to the
free list, but the threat was regarded
as somewhat facetious.
The sugar amendments occasioned a
long debate, during which Mr. Allison
stated that the conference rates were
lower than those of the senate and
largely a concession to the house. Sen
ators Vest, Jones, Berry and White
questioned this statement, urging that
the Sugar trust secured larger benefits
from the conference schedule than from
any previously offered.
The lumber amendment also brought
out animated criticism from Senators
Teller and Pettigrew.
The senr.te passed a Joint resolution
authorizing and requesting the presi
dent to take all necessary steps for the
release of the Competitor prisoners from
prison In Havana.
Representative Mitchell of New York
has Introduced in the house a bill to
establish a currency reserve fund for
the redemption of United States notea
and treasury notes of 110. The fund
shall aggregate at the start tlt'0,000.000.
of which not over $1,000, ouO shall con
sist of gold and the remainder of Unit
ed States and treasury notes.
The fund shall be added to from time
to time as the treasury's cash balance
exceeds $;;.oOf.0'XI, but shall never ag
gregate more than $2e0.000.eoo. The fund
shall he used to redeem United States

GOLDFIELD? OF VARVFLOUS RICH
NESS IN HE YUKON COUNTRY.
Geologist Pall, Who Una Passed Rome
lime In AlfMltn, ltelteves the Rtorlra
Told of Fabieloni Wealth Are Not Over
drawn Gold on the American Side.
Washington. July 21. Dr. William II.
Dall, one of the curators f the Na
tional museum. Is fimlllRr with the re
gion of count! y In which the Klondike
pohnields nre located throuuh hnvintj
been on several geological expeditions
to the region In Alaska adjoining the
gold district arid says that In his opin
ion the repot In from there probably are
not eXHRtfersted. He said:
"Wtr n 1 was there, 1 did not find gold,
but know of It being taken out In prof
liable quantities for 10 years or more.
It was first discovered there in 1RK In
10, when I was up in that country my
last trip having been made two years
ago the first party of prospectors who
M'ide tho mining a profit started out.
The gold is found on the various tribu
taries of the Yukon, and 1 have been
within a comparatively short distance
of tho Klondike fields. 1 made one
trip to Circle City, Just over the houtid
ai y of Canada.
"The gold hearing belt of north
western Aii.nlc.i contains all the gold
fields extending Into British Columbia
what Is known as the northwestern ter
ritory and Alaska The Yukon really
runs along In thut belt for 500 or 6 no
miles. The bed of the main river Is In
the lowland of the valley.
The yellow metal Is not found In
paying quantities In the main river, but
In the small stieams which cut through
the mountains on either side. These
practlmUy wash out the gold The
mud and mlnerul matter Is carried Into
the main river, while the gold Is left
on the rough bottoms of these side
streams,
"In most enses the gold Hob at the
bottom of thick gravel deposits. - The
gold Is covered by frozen gravel in the
winter. During the summer, until the
snow is all melted, the surface Is cov
ered by muddy torrents. When the
snow Is all melted and the springs be
gin to freer.e, the streams dry up. At
the approach of winter. In order to get
at the gold, the miners find It necessary
to dig Into the gravel frfimatlon.
Methoda of Operating.
"Formerly they Btrlpped the gravel
off until they came to the gold. Now
they sink a shaft to the bottom of the
gravel and tunnel along underneath In
the gold bearing layer. The way in
which this is done is interesting, as It
has to be carried on In cold weather,
when everything is frozen.
"The miners build fires over the area
where they wish to work and keep
these lighted over that territory for the
space of 24 hours. Then at the expi
ration of this period the gravel will be
melted and softened to a depth of per
haps six Inches. This is then taken off
and other fires built, until the gold bear
ing layer is reached. When the shaft
Is down that far, fires are built at the
bottom, aualnst the sides of the layer,
and tunnels made In this manner.
Blasting would do no good on account
of the hard nature of the material and
would blow out Just as out of a gun.
The matter taken out containing the
gold is piled up until spring, when the
torrents come down, and is panned and
cradled by those. It Is certainly very
hard labor.
"1 see many reasons why the gold
fields should be particularly rich. The
streams whtch cut throueh the moun
tains have probably done so for cen
turies, wearing them down several hun
dred feet and washing out the gold Into
the beds and gravel.
"It Is a country in which It is very
hard to find food, as there is practical
ly no game. Before the whites went
into the regton there were not more
than 300 natives. They have hard work
to support themselves on account of the
Bcarcily of game."
Gold on the American Side,
San Francisco, July 21. F. O. H.
Bowker, one of the returned Yukoners.
who brings back nearly $10,000 In gold
dust, the result of six months' work, Is
authority for the statement that on the
American side of tho International
boundary placer fleld3 have been found
which even put those of the Klondike
into the shade.
When his party was descending the
Yukon on the return from Dawson City
the steamship was intercepted by a man
who desired to send lettets and papers
back to civilization. This man was one
of a party w ho had gone down the river
from Dawson In the hope of locating
rich beds of which Indluns In the vi
cinity had been telling. The members
of the party were well known to the
Yukoners, and full credence Is given to
the story.
Bowker and his associates were told
that Just across the Alaska boundary,
on the American side, the party had
found placer fields fabulously rich in
gold. They had staked out claims and
begun to work them.

Mad Dogs Are Rare.
Tho "inad-dof? scare" isoxapgora
tt'd. -Rubios and the possibility of a
luiman lioing contracting it nre
worthy of serious consideration, yet
Komtine cases of it nre very rare.
The so-called "mud-dogs" shot in
tho streets of mir cities dnring the
hoated term were, in very" few cases
if any, stiff -ring from rallies. This
terrible disease does not suddenly
develop, as do the common fits
which may be produced by varying
causes. Rabies takes time to reach
the dangerous stage, and few dogs,
If properly cared for, could develop
it without their owners knowing
that something serious was the trou
ble. Horses kill many more people
than dogs nre responsible for, yet we
do not contomplatc the extinction of
tho equino race. If the crumpled
horn source of tho family milk sup
ply happened to toss the son and
heir over the barn, should we advo
cate that the entire tribe of Bos be
destroyed? Tho real difficulty about

1N EYCK THE. CHAMPION.
An American Wlna the Diamond Sonll
Ka-oe at Henley.
Henley on Thames. July 17. For the
first time In the annals of rowing at
Henley an American has won the Dia
mond sculls. Edward H. Ten Eyck, 19
years old, of the Wachusset Boat club,
Massachusetts defeated In the semi
finals B. H. Howell (American) of
Trinity hall, Cambridge, and in the final
H T. Ulackstafte of the Vesta Rowing
club, IOndon.
Ten Eyck aaid after the race:
"Nutuially 1 am very much pleased
at winning hy a length and a half over
so good a man as Blackstaffe. I don't
think I was pumped out at the end, for.
although perspiring freely, I was not
rowed out. It Is a mistake to say that
I rowed over so as to take Blackstaffe's
water. The fact is that for a moment I
found myself there, as In the race with
C. H. TEN EYCK.
Howell, but I got out aa quickly as I
could. I am very much pleased with the
kind attention I have received from the
regatta officials."
The elder Ten Eyck added: "We have
been well treated by everybody with
whom we have come Into oinclal con
tact. As tor the Yankee tricks of which
we have been accused, I know of none,
nor have I ever said a word to my boy
to prompt him to do anything tricky.
Naturally 1 am pleased that he hae
proved himself so fine an oarsman."
However great Ten Eyck's unpopu
larity may have been with the crowd
that witnessed his defeat of Blackstaffe,
he was given the biggest reception of
any of the prize winners.
