t. COAL MINERS-STRIKE
IS PRACTICALLY ENDED.
Operators Accede to tke Demands of the
. Striken as Expressed at the Scran
. ion Convention.' " -
By Telegraph to the Merning star.
Philadelphia, October 17. The
strike of, the anthracite coal mine
workers of Pennsylvania, which began
September 17tb, practically ended to
day when the Philadelphia and Read
ing Coal and Iron Company and the
Lehigh Valley Coal Company agreed
to abolish the sliding scale in their re
spective regions and to grant an ad
vance in wages of 10 per cent, net, the
advance to remain in operation until
April 1st, 1901, or thereafter. This ac
tion meets the demands of the Scran-'
. ton miners1 convention. The decision
was arrived at after a conference be
tween representatives of the individual
coal operators and the large coal car
ry in g companies. The conference be
gan yesteraay. ; ; : .
To day's action was the culmination
of ihefecent meeting of the individual
operators at. Scranton, 'following the
mine workers' convention in the same
city. Nearly all the collieries in the
c ml region had previous to the mine
workers' convention posted notices
granting an advance of 10 per cent.
Victory for the Men. .
. The mine workers in considering: this
demanded that the sliding scale in the
Lehigh and Schuylkill districts be
abolished, the increase to be guaran
teed until April 1st, 1901, and all other
differences to be submitted to arbitra
tion. The individual operators agreed
to everything and the appointment of
a committee to induce the Heading and
the Lehigh companies to abolish the
sliding scale and make the wage in
crease permanent, followed. .
It is conceded that the results of to-J
day's conference is complete victory
for Die men. All the demands cf the
( i veu tioa are acceded to and as one of
ne individual operators put it after the
conference, the operators go a little,
further in agreeing to maintain the
wage advance after April 1st. This
s me operator, who suggested that his
name be not used, said in speaking of
thf conference: . " - ;
Speedy Resumption Expected.
"It's up to the miners now. We
hare agreed to everything and nothing
remains now but for them to return to I
work as soon as the notices are posted i
by the colliery managers. These
notices will be - practically similar to
the Reading Company's notice, the
phraseology only being changed. I
loolfrfor a resumption of operations by
Monday night at the latest. The con
ference was entirely harmonious and
every phase of the strike Bitnation
wai gone over." -, ,
The Reading company's notica reads :
"It hereby withdraws the notice posted
October 3rd, 1900,' and to bring about
practical uniformity in the advance of
wages in the several coal regions gives
notice that it will suspend the opera
tion of the sliding scale, will pay ten
per cent, advance on September wages
till April 1st, 1901, and thereafter until
further notice, and will take jip with
its mine employes any grievances
which they may have."
President Mitchell Interviewed.
Hazelton, Pa., October 17. The
news from Philadelphia to day that
the Philadelphia and Reading Coal
and Iron Company had agreed to the
anthracite miners' proposition as set
forth in the resolutions adopted in con
vention last Saturday brought forth
many expressions' of surprise that it
should come so soon after the conven
tion. President Mitchell, of the United
Mine Workers, when informed of the
Reading Company's action by.a re pre
sentative of the Associated Press, was
pressed for a statement on this accep
tance of the miners' proposition. All
he would venture to say, however, was
that he would be glad to know that
the anthracite operators had decided
" to change the notices previously
posted, so as to comply with the pro
visions of the resolutions adopted
at the' Scranton convention.
Mr. Mitchell declined to sly whether
the Union would let the men return to
work at these collieries where the op-
. erators had accepted the miners! prop
osition before all the companies had
fallen into line. It is generally be
lieved that the big coal carrying rail
roads that mine coal will quickly fol
low the Reading Company and grant
acceptances of the proposition and that
all other operators will do the same.

Aberdeen. 8. D., October 17. Sen
ator Hanna and his party attracted- a
big crowd here to-day. Mr. Hanna
began to discuss the tariff. Vv-
"What about the" trusts?" asked
some one ia the crowd. -"Well,
my friend, if you will tell
me what a trust is, I'll answer your
question," said Mr. Hanna. No reply
came.
"Well, if you don't know I'll tell
you," continued Mr. Hanna. "A trust
under the law and what is known as
a trust in commerce is where the stock

"3ay, Senator that man thinks the
world is flat : don't pay any attention

Great Crowds at Albany and Troy-Other

. Made by Mr. Bryan.
. By TelearaDB to the Morning star. '
. Albany, N. Ym October 17. Wil
liam J. Bryan ran arounTCwo sides of
a triangle to-day, from Hudson to Al
bany inclusive, and probably spoke to
as cosmopolitan lot of people as he has
addressed during the campaign. At
Hudson he spoke to a gathering, of
business people of all classess; at Troy
to the capacity of an Opera House and
with an overflow meeting of collar fac
tory and laundry employes; at Me
chanicsville to railroad people; at C6
hoes to the mass of the employes of the
cotton and woollen mills, and at Al
bany to two immense meetings, one in
the Opera ' House and one outside,
composed of the best element in the
city? During his speech-making, Mr.
Bryan was accompanied by Chairman,
of the State Committee Frank Camp
bell; Judge O. N". Bulger of Oswego,
ex -Senator Edward Murphy, ex-Mayor
Francis Malloy of Troy, Mayor Samuel
M. Jones of Toledo, and J. J. Delaney
of New York.
Messrs. Bulger, Delaney and Jones
alternated in the speaking with Mr.
Bryan, assisting particularly at places
where there were , overflow, meetings.
The great meetings of this trip were
held at Troy, the home of ex Senator
Murphy, and Albany, the home of ex
Senator HilL Mr. Hill is absent in the
West. At both Troy and Albany the
meetings were phenomenally laree and
enthusiastic, immense overflows hav
ing to be held to accommodate those
who either desired to hear or see Mr.
Bryan.
- r Mr. Bryan's Speecher. I -
During this traverse of the two sides
of a triangle : Mr. Bryan alluded to
many things which he has not men
tioned at many other places during the
campaign. "At Hudson he said:
"it is said Mexico is far better off be
cause we took our flag down from the
capital when our Mexican war was
over and brought it back to the Rio
lirande. 1 think Mexico is better to
day, and we are better than if we had
held a carpet-bag government in place
there . by means of bayonets, and I
tbink that self-government in Mexico,
half Spanish and half Indian, has de
veloped the .people more and has
brought them further than would
have been the case had we held them
under our dominion, and if yon doubt
it, look i at Mexico and compare
Mexico with India. Under thirty
years of self-government Mexico has
n.ade more progress than India has
made in one hundred and 'fifty years
oppressed by Anglo-Saxon soldiery.
They only have 100,000 English in

an army of seventy thousand British
-soldiers to take care of the British
population, and it takes a native army
of 140,000 to help the British army of
70,000 in its work of protection."
At Cohoes Mr. Bryan Said:
"We will soon find the army here
demanding the punishment of an in
nocent man as the army in France de
manded the punishment of Dreyfus, a
man so innocent that the president
felt that he must pardon him as soon
as he was convicted, because of the
outraged sense of justice expressed
throughout the world."
He paid a high tribute to LaFayette
and his service to the American colo
nies in their war for freedom and
spoke of the gift of the statue of lib
erty in New York harbor from the
people of the French republic, and
asked: '
"Shall we take that statue down and
send it back to France and tell the
people of France that we are not in
the liberty business any more? Shall
we send over to England and get a
statue of William the Conqueror and
place it in New York harbor to indicate
the change, that has taken place in our
nation's ideas??' .
At Newbargh.
At Newburgh Mr.' Bryan spoke to a
crowd of several thousand people
from a stand in front of the court
house and the speech was frequently
and loudly applauded. VI want you
to know,'"said Mr. Bryan, "that the
National Biscuit Companyhas one
hundred and sixteen factories, and
when -I was at Mankate, Mich., the
other day, I found a cracker factory
that had been bought by the National
Biscuit Company and closed down
within a short time. You will find that
every one of the concerns mentioned
is one of the great trusts. The Ameri
can Steel and Wire Company controls
eighty per cent of the output of wire
nails and steel wire and you remember
that within a year that company closed
down twelve factories, threw six thou
sand men out of employment and then
reduced the price of wire nails and
barbed wire in an instant, threw upon
the men who had bought up stocks of
the wire and nails a heavy loss, and it
was stated that the man who was re
sponsible for it did it in order to make
more money on the stock market in the
depression of the price of the stock than
a man could make in an ordinary life
time. Why is it," he added, "that your
papers will defend these trusts?"
Mr. Bryan charged that the Repub
lican party was circulating a book pre
pared by a man named Weeks, which
defended the trusts, and said :
"The National Publishing Company
of New York printed the book. It first
asked the trusts to buy the book and
circulate it. It found the trusts did not
want to undertake the circulation of
this book, and this publishing company
wrote a letter to the trusts, a copy of
which is in the hands of ex-Governor
Stone, saying: To overcome this
difficulty we have arranged with the
Republican National Committee to
have it distributed in such manner and
in such places as to insure the best re
sult,' and Governor Stone has a re
ceipt signed for the national commit
tee of the Republican party by J. H.

"Toe Republican party has changed
its ideas and its ideals, in the last
quarter ,of a century. I remember
reading a letter r from Abraham Lin
coln to the Republicans ot Boston who
were celebrating Jefferson's birthday.
Do you remember whether the Re
publicans of this community have
celebrated Jefferson's birthday lately ?
Have they had any banquets in his
honor undr Republican auspices in
rcent years? I think not. Not in
any part of the country, and yet, my
friendsTin 1856, when the Republican
party was organized its platform ap
ptaied to all those who wanted to
carry the government back ta the
principles of Washington and Jeffer

meets to celebrate the birthday, not t-f
Jefferson; but of Hamilton, Jefferson's
great political opponent." ; j
, The Albany Meetings.
The Albany meetings were not be
gun, as promptly as some that bad
taaen place elsewhere. A parade kept
the assemblages in the street and
theatre waiting. The theatre was filled
to repletion and a large- overflow on
the outside commanded Mr. Bryan's
attention, Mr. Bryan's voice showed
palpable signs of wear. He' said in
part:
"The Republican party goes on the
theory that society is- built from the
top. They say take care of the well
to do and they will take care of those
who are not well to do, and when you
tell them of the story of Lazarus and
Dives they say : 'What a lucky man
Lszarus was to ' have a Dives near, so
he could get the crumbs that fell from
Dives' table."
"A man in your State in 1896 said
that the prosperity of the laboring men
and the farmer depended upon the
prosperity of the banker and the busi
ness man. He got it just reversed.
The prosperity of the business man de
pends upon the prosperity of the
farmer and the laboring man, for until
wealth is produced there is no wealth
to exchange. And yet the Republicans;
if they built a house as they build
society, would build the. roof first
and then hang the house to the roof.
They go on the theory that a man who
has a place to work ought to be under
some obligation to the employer. No
man employs another unless the man
employed can make enough to pay his
own wages and a profit besides to the
man who employs him. And yet when
election day comes the employer
sometimes thinks that the man who is
working for him sells his citizenship
wheu he sells his labor. And often the
employer tries to coerce the laborer. If
it is right for an employer to vote the
vote of his employe, then I insist the
law should be changed so as to give
every employer as many votes as he
has employes. As it is now they
sometimes get away and if the vote
belongs to the citizon and not to the
employer, then every citizen who
prizes his ballot and appreciates the
responsibility of citizenship should
speak out against the intimidation that
is often practiced against' those who
are in the employ of others."
Mr. Bryan then took up the ques
tions of trusts and militarism along
the usual lines.

A MURDER MYSTERY.
A Man's Body Decapitated and Denuded
of the Lfmbs Found In a Pond at
Lynn, Mass. -
Br Telegraph to the Morninz Star.
Lyitn, Mass., October 17. That
great "Trunk 'tragedy," as it was
known through all New England,
way back in 1872, when the mutilated
body of Jenny Clark was found
wedged into' a trunk which had been
picked up in the Sauguas river, was in
some respects no more mysterious than
the murder which was revealed to day
by the finding of a man's body, de
capitated and denuded of the limbs, in
a gunny sack in Glenmore pond. -
The police to-night are inclined to
the belief that George E. Bailey has
been murdered and have taken under
arrest John O. Best, 25 years of age,- a
farm hand, employed on the estate of
which the supposed victim of the mur
derer was care-taker. The police, in
searching the farm house where the
men live, found in the barn cellar an
axe which bore blood stains, but are
not certain they are of human blood,
some stains on a window-sill and on a
Eiece of card-board in a room of the
ouse. i
Bailey disappeared on October 8th.
No one knew the reason, but there
were persons who supposed that he
bad followed his wife to Wiscastle,
Maine, she having left the house, it is
asserted, because of a disagreement.
It is now claimed that the woman,
known as Mrs. Bailey, was not his
wife; that although Bailey was mar
ried, his wife's whereabouts are un
known. The woman is said to be Miss
Susie Young, and she was the housekeeper.-
With these clews the' police
are trying to solve the mystery of the
murder.
