Mining Situat'fi'm.
STATUS IN WEST VIRGINIA.
Strike Leaders Hope to Bring the Work-
"men \Vho Are Hesltating into Line.
Much Expected 'by Both Sides
From the Conferences.
Pittsburg, July 27.—Lively times are
promised in the coal mining situation
this week. A crisis is impending. This
is conceded on all sides. The arbitra—
tion commissioners, on the one side, feel
hopeful that they will bring about- the
initiative for a settlement at the meet—
ing Of tomorrow. The miners’ Oflicials,
on the other hand, claim to have
adopted measures that will make a
complete tie up. It has developed that
many of the West Virginia miners are
awaiting word from the Pittsburg dis-
trict and especially from the New York
’ and Cleveland mines.’ They want to
hear of the miners in these mines hav-
ing joined the general su-Spension.
This, it is claimed by the officials,
will bring all the faltering ones inWest
Virginia into line, thus making the
strike effective in that it will shut Off:
the supply of coal. To accomplish this
arrangements have been made for Eu-
gene V. Debs and other prominent Oflie
cials to come to this city and hold a
meeting for the-benefit of the New'York
and Cleveland miners Thursday morn-
ing.
Among the others expected to be
present are Samuel Gompers, M. D.
Ratc’hford, M. M. Garland and W. H.
Mahon. At this meeting it is intended
to strike a final decisive blow and if
possible make the tie up. complete. The
place has not been selected as yet, but
it will be in a grove in close proximity
to the Turtle Creek, Sandy Creek and
2l-‘ilum Creek mines of the New York'
and Cleveland Gas Coal company. The
reputation of .Debs, it is expected, will
prove to be a magnet, and 12,000 miners
are looked for at the meeting.
Possible Trouble at De Armitt’s.
The meeting at Scottdale tomorrow of
the miners in the coke districts and the
'meeting of labor leaders at Wheeling
are also locked upon as important fea—
tures at this period of the strike. Should
the Westmoreland miners be brought
out there are fears for serious trouble
at‘De Armitt’s mines.
Reports from the coke regions indi-
cate that t e cokers are not likely to
come out. .e board ‘Of arbitrators re-
port matters quiet, waiting on the re-
sult of the meeting tomorrow, which,
they claim to think, means much to-
ward the result of the proposed settle-
ment Of the strike by arbitration. An
effort is being made to have as many
river men attend the meeting as possi.
Cook & Sons‘ Mine Running.
Canonsburg, Pa., July 27. —The mine
of Cook & Sons, at McGovern, is run-
ning today. About 100 men are at work.
There is no indication of trouble there.
The camping strikers are stih on the
scene, about 100 fresh recruits arriving
there yesterday and about 50 more to-
day, bringing provisions enough to last
them several days.
Many of the vs 1ves and children Of the
encamped strikers from Miller’s Run
visited the camp. The strikers are still
hopeful Of “inning and are determined
to remain until an endwis reached.
Young Not Hopeful.
Cleveland, July 27.—Mi. Thomas E.
Young, the manager for M A. Hanna &
(30., does not feel in a very hopeful
mood over the confeience Of operators
.at Pittsburg ,tomorrow. He says that
the outlook is most discouraging for a
settlement. All the Cleveland operators
will attend the conference, and they
express themselves as eager for a set-
tlement upon some satisfactory agree-
ment. The coal supply is low.
Organizers Dislieartened.
Fairmo1. t, W. Va” July“ 27. —The
gieat break among the miners failed to
take place and the Oiganizers are dis-
heartened. Debs and Mahon have gone
to Wheeling, not expecting to return.
All depends on the action of the execu-
tive boards of the labor organizations
at Wheeling tomorrow. The men at
Hutchinson and Luther today both join-
ed the strike1s, but as the four Wat-
son mines still stand solid the move-
ment has been a failure. As far as the
Fairmont district is concerned the
strike is a failure.
No Coal For Threshing.
Blocmington, 1115., July 27.—A very
serious aspect of the coal strike in cen-
tral Illinois is presented in the fact
that the oat harvest is at its height and
there is not a pound of coal obtainable
for'the thrashing. Rain falls almost ev-
ery day, and it is necessary to thrash
the grain quickly or stack. it.~ The farm-
ers in their dilemma threaten to make a
raid on the coal which the railroads
have stored along their lines. Where
wood is procurable it serves as a make-'
shift fuel, and wood is being hauled
eight and ten miles for this purpose,
but there are many places .where it is
imposr' .ble to get w.ood Farmers got
coal ”here last week in small quanti—
ties and hauled it many miles. At
Roanoke, when the miners resumed
work, farmers bought coal which they
had to haul 25 and 30 miles.
An Injunction AAgainst Debs.
Fairmont, W. Va., July 27.—Today
the Monongah Coal company, Senator
J. N. Camden’s plant, and the West
Fairmont Coal company, ex-Governor
Fleming’s plant, got out an injunction
before the circuit court restraining Eu-
gene V. Debs et al. from interfering
with their men. The et a1. take in
Mahon, Rea, Crosslet, Miller and over
100 miners.
Big Fire In Ontario.
Wiarton, Ont., July 27.—Ten of the
largest stores of this town were burned
to the ground today. The flre‘ was in
the heart of the business portion of the
town. It was controlled with great
difficulty. The loss will be heavy.

New York, July 27. —The $500, 000 in
gold which it was announced- last week

T111: PHILIPPINE NBBBLLION.
It Is Irrepressible.
San Francisco, 'July 27.—Among the
passengerson the steamer China from
the orient was H. D. Levinsohn, {the
of the largest sugar factories in Manil-
la. -Mr. Levinsohn has just come from
Manilla, where, he says, the insurrec-
tion Of the natives is still in progress.
“From present indications and from all
I could learn during my sojourn in Ma-
n’illa,” he said, “the Spanish authorities
will never be able to subdue the insur-
rectionists. It is a common report in
Manilla that the papers are not allowed
to print the truth. They are all under
a press censorship. It was credibly re-
ported in that city shortly after a recent
engagement that the natives had killed
60 of the Spanish soldiers and lost only
2 of their number. As soon as the rainy
weather sets in, which will be very
shortly, you may have some further re-
ports Of hostilities, and the victories will
be on the side Of the rebels.
“A regiment Of Spanish soldiers came
into Manilla from the interior during
my stay in the city, and they, were the
saddest lot of men I ever saw. ' Some of
them wore shoes and others did not.
Many were more or less distressed for
the want Of proper clothes.”

tonio, Jamaica, brought advices that
