New York, Oct. 16. High traffic of
ficers of some of the coal roads left
here today for Philadelphia, for the
purpose of holding a conference with
the Philadelphia and Reading1 and oth- -er
representatives of itihe coal producing1
interests in regard to the xnanens'
strike. There is good authority for the
statement that not one of the coal com
panies nor individual mine owners will
raise any abjection to the miners' de-
knand that the ten per cent, advance in
wagea shall be maintained until ithe
month of April. The companies " re
main, firmi in their determination not
to recognize the union.
Tamaqua, Oct. L. This town is till
ed tonight "with strikers from' distant
points and General Gobin's soldiers are
in .camp two miles away ready for any
emergency. The object of the gather
ing of strikers here is to prevent the
miners employed by the Lehigh" Goal
Navigation company in Panihejr. Creek
valley from continuing' work. Strikers
are earning in. by tlhe hundreds land it 3a
thought that they will keep coming
during the night. It 4s thought here
that the assembling of tihis large body
of strikers will have the effect of clos
ing every colliery in Panther valley.
Dunkellsherger's colliery of this place
ha been shut down. Strike emissaries
are at work tonight, and it 5s thought
that fewer miners will report for work
n the collieries of Panther Creek in the
morning than heretofore.

A NEW PICTURE OF
COMPETITIVE ROAD
FOR ASHEVILLE
ACCORDING TO STORY BROUGHT
HERE FROM TRANS YL- -VANIA
COUNTY.
The Toxaway Company Said to be In
terested. Connpany Making Surveys for a Rail
road Between Toxaway and Seneca,
. and "Wants Seaboard to. Meet Coin
i pany'is "Road at That Point.
An Asheville business man, w)ho has
just returned from Transylvania coun
ty, is of the opinion that Asttieville may
yet have a competitive Taiilroad.
The Toocaway company is making
surveys for a road from that place to
Seneca, S". C, and 'the company would
like to have tShe Seaboard Air Line
meet tihem at that point. About fif
teen (miles of the proposed line have al
ready been Staked off. The Toxaway
company has Just completed a road
from Brevard to Toxaway, and a regu
lar schedule lis being operated on the
extension.
It is said that in the event the Seneca
project goes througn the Toxaway
company will ask the people of Ashe
ville to aid in the construction of a
road from Horse Shoe to this city.
Horse Shoe is a small place, seven
miles beyond Hendersonville, on the
Transylvania railroad. Thi road bed
would follow the French Broad river,
and therefore the cast of grading would
be comparatively small.
At a recent meeting of the stock
holders of tlhe Toxaway company it
was decided to build forty additional
rooms to the Fairfield Inn.

ft CONTRAST OF
CRAWFORD PARADES
IN THE OTJDEN TIME THEY NUM'
BERERED A THOUSAND;
TOTAY,
Democratic Confession That Moody
Will Carry Hay wood.
More tand More Apparent as the Days
Go by That Crawford Is Beaten and
Fines Creek, Haywood County, Oct.
13. We had 'a big crowd here today,
perhaps the biggest ye have had outside
the towns. We had the brass band
again, or rather Crawford had it, but
we heard it play Dixie lust as clearly
as though we had 'paid for it.
Brother Crawford is striving violent
ly of late to make a splurge. He had
the band yesterday &t Waynesville, as
here today, the same band. On both
occasions also he Ihas had a vast and
imposing parade of mounted men.
Yesterday 57 men were in line and to
day 51.
They are tickled to death with t their
"vast popular outpourings," but they
say that a few years ago any demo
cratic candidate could get a thousand
horsemen in here easily at any time.
Now they are proud of 51. Times have
changed you see. This morning a dem
ocrat told me that he expected Moody
to carry Haywood county, which was
carried by Crawford two years ago by
over 800. This is more than Moody
counts on, though not one, not even
Crawford's supporters claim: for him1
much more than half his last majority.
As the days near on toward the 6h
of November it becomes more and more
apparent, that Crawford is beaten and
beaten badly, and Crawford shows his
appreciation of this fact in his manner
and appearance. His only chance to
get a certificate lies in wholesale
frauds in any precinct they think it
safe to try it in and there are net
many in which it will be safe this time.

If fie does get a certificate by use of
the frauds, provided for in the Simmons
force bill he won't keep it long. Not
long, Mr. Crawford! And. you'll have
to do a lot of stealing to get it in the
first place.
Moody opened -here and was most at
tentively listened to by the crowd gath
ered on the hillside about the cburch,
wthich was far too small to hold them.
He again devotdd a good deal of time
to the Jonathan's Creek fraud, because
here 4n the same part of the county the
people know the facts and are more in
terested in it than the people of other
sections. Crawford goes imdghty slow
on all these matters when he is in a
nejghborhod where the people are ac
quainted with the facts. He yells
about something else there.
Moody read again from tne official
reports of our military and civil om
cerS In the Philippines, describing tne
circumstances' under which hostilities
commenced there, and ho roasted
Crawford for setting up against this
testimony the excited and ill-consider
ed wobAs of Hoar in a speech :nad be
fore 'the treaty was ratified. By the
way, one of Crawford's friends on the
outskirts of the crowd at Canton the
other day, was wildly indignant and
was moving around with blood in h's
eye and a four-inch knife in his fist.
His grievance was that Moody ciLcd
Crawford a follower of (Hoar.
The same oharge was made today,
but no one wanted to fight about it.
He does not follow Hoar in fact; what
he does is to take ihis stand where
Hoar did before the treaty waJs signed .
He has not, like Hoar, the intelligence
to see and the honesty to admit that
the position is changed now since Bty-
an helped ratify the treaty, and that
there is nothing now that can be done
except to put down the insurrection.
He sat down where Hoar once stood,
but it does not suit him to progress
with Hoar. -Ul he knows about the
Philippipe question he got from the
things Hoar said when he was im
perfectly informed, and Crawford even
twists Hoar's mistakes about till they
have lost what little semblance of
truth they once had.
Crawford talks a lot about what he
calls the "treaty" with the sultan of
Jolo. Mr. Crawford don't know, or
at any rate, is careful hot-to: say that
it is not a "treaty" at all, but simply
a temporary agreement entered into
between General Bates and the sultan.
Nor does he tell that the piresident in
his message to congress said: "I have
confirmed this agreement, subject to
the action of congress-, with -the reser
vation, wlhich I have directed shall be
communicated to the sultan of Jolo
that this agreement is not to bo deem
ed iri any was to authorize or give the
consent of the United States to tlfe
existence of slavery in the iSulu archi
pelago." Mr. Crawford doesn't read that, he
merely complains in general" terms of
the "treaty" which he does not read to
the people, and recites the amounts we
pay monthly to the sultan- and his
chiefs. This amount he gives In Mex
ican silver dollars free silver dollars
but he does not say so. Thfus he more
than doubles the antount, which makes
him feel even better than if he had di
rectly stated it falsely.

DISPLAYS OF FIREWORKS AND

IN
THE
STREETS PORTRAITS OF THE
DEMOCRATIC1 CANDIDATES DIS
PLAYED. New York, Oct. 16. Bryan received
an ovation tonight seldom accorded to
any one. He witciessed three immense
meetings, one In Madison Square gar
den, one at Tamany hall and another
ait the 'Cooper Union. He also made a
few iremarks to an immense crowd
which assembled at Madison square.
In all the streets adjoining 'the hails at
which he spoke there were great dis
plays of fireworks, colored lights and
streets jammed with people. The aniost
important meeting was at Madison
Square garden. A few minutes after
.the buidling opened it was jammed
with people. The hall was profusely
decorated with flags and bunting. Di
rectly over, where the 'speakers were
seated, in blazing lights, was the senti
ment: "We Wish to remain a free
people,", and underneath were the
portraits-of Bryan and Stevenson.
On ibe entrance of IBryan the audi
ence rose. In a 'body and cheered wild
ly for fully five minutes ton Bryan,
and when he was introduced the audi
ence again rose to its feet and cheered
for several mibinutes. While Bryan
was standing, motlonin for silence,
without warning came from the mid
dle of the floor a blinding flash and a
dull report. Instantly there was a
cloud, dn Bryan's face. (He fixed his
eyes ontthe spot from yhich the' dis
turbance' came,' but when he sawf it
was only from a flash light of a pho
tographer taking his picture Bryan
joined in the laugh which followed.
Bryan spoke for an hour and ten mln
uets and was. listened to most attent
ively. His speech was devoted to the
discussion of Imperialism, militarism
and trust ts. He delivered hist last
speech tonight at (Cooper Union. At
the eomciusioto of this speech he was
driven to the Hoffman House for a
night's rest.
