Tho minors have boon cautioned by tholr leaders not to use any unlawful moans to souuro tho ijooes of this strike for higher wages. I Reports from all pnrts of Ohio show that practically all the mines In the State are closed. Some of the minors In the Jackson and Shawnoe districts are still working, and will romaln 'In the mlues for a tow days to awnlt the notion of the Pittsburg district. Owing to the fact tha:. many mines have boon working on very short time, some of the districts of Ohio present scenes but lit tle different from those of the past few months.

"'Ulkvki.and, Ohio (Special). Reports from the mlnos oporated from this point indicate that ninety pur cent, of the 75,000 minors who are under direct orders from Cleveland have thrown down their tools, and that the larger part of the remaining ten per pent, have decided to quit work. Never before In the history of mining in Ohio have Cleveland operators confronted "bo great a strike as the present. . t "Chicago, III. (Special). Despatches from various points in Illinois and Indiana indl- : eato that the strike of ooal minors is wide spread. A despatch from illoomlngton, 111., . says that the miners of the McLean County Company decided to go out !n obedlonoe to Ihn rfrtnapnl nlflll,ir ,, I 11 n tf iiT RIlflriBnnion of work. There Is no dissatisfaction, and the strike will be purely sympathetic. The miners roooivo fifty cents per ton for dig ging second vein coal and sixty cents for thUd vein. Ilepresentutves of".lho mines at Rlverton, Barclay and Hpnuldlng got together and unanimously decided to Join tho general strlko. At Dawson the miners also decided to quit work, and the movement is expected to spread through the Springfield district. 1'rosidont Knight of the United Mine Workers for Indiana, in an interview at Terra Haute said that the Columbus re- . . . . l. - -(Y IK. 7R WV1 in itn will ha Involved In the strike Is a'gross exaggera tion, lie estimates tbat tne total numoer of miners that will be idle will be between 110.000 and 125,000. i His figures are as follows: In Pennsyl vania, 22,000; In Ohio, 25,000; in Indiana, SO00; in West Virginia, 20,000, and in Illi nois, 35,000. . ,i f i", , .

The leaders will uso all means at their command to Induce the men to commit no violent acts. Tho men number 4000, one-half of whom are non Kngllsh speaking. Apprehension of trou ble comes from what the foreign miners may do toward the close of the month. There will be many families on the vorge of starvation if n!l Is not extended thorn. Th nnimtv authorities will elve no more than ti a month to the families of the miners, and many of them will not got any aid. If the suspension extends beyond four weeks there will be destitution among two thirds of the miners in this section. At Ladd, a village near this city, the miners are already applying for county aid. Tho strike sentiment is so strong that It Is believed these men, masons, mechanics, blacksmiths and carpenters, will be forced to get In line. There is no section of the West which goes into the fight to a man as have tho miners of the Hpring Valley dis trict, and none are so desperate. The miners of this elty anticipated the general strike order three days before It was Issued from Columbus, and at a mass meeting placed themsolves on reoord to dig no more slxty-three-cent-a-ton coal after July 2.

While walking aorossths front piazza Mrs. Mo Klnley tripped on a pleoe of matting and fell forward, striking her faoe on a chair. The Presidont sprang to assist her, and found that a considerable gash had been out in her forohead. The wound was dressed and the patient Is as oomfortable asoould be expected. She regards the acoldent moro lightly than do any of her family, bearing her pain with the Spartan-like calmness of her nature. The aooldent was the only disagreeable feature of the trip, and it was not regarded as serious enough to interfere with the de parture ot the President and his wife. DEFICIT CUT DOWN. Importations In Anticipation of the New Tariff Duties Increase Receipts. The fiscal rear of 1897. which closed June 30, left the United States Treasury in good condition to begin the new year.
