THE OPERATORS’ THREATS.
President Ratchtord Attaches Little Im-
portance to Them—Stopping Work
In the Bellaire District—The
.... Situation at Cofl‘eem

_ Columbus, 0., Aug. 20.——A published
' report that certain_ Pittsburg district
operators had made statements that
they intend to resume even if gatling
guns have to be used and Pinkerton
men employed is characterized by Pres-
ident Ratchford of the United Mine
Workers as a “bluff.” He said today:
"There is but one interpretation to be
’ placed on this statement—namely, that
the operators prefer to shed blood rath-
er than negotiate a peaceful settlement.
,They cannot build stockades high
enough or strong enough in the Pitts-
burg district to hold nonunion work-
men, and any effort in that direction
will fail. In the first place, there is no
unanimity among the operators, and, in
the second place,‘ they cannot hope to
get nonunion workmen. Further than
'that, the opinion of the great pdblic will
of itself defeat their plans even though
they were agreed and nonunion labor
could be secured."

Ohio Mines Closing.
Bridgeport, 0., Aug. 20.—The order is-
sued by the miners’ mass meeting at
Bellaire to stop all mining operations
in the eastern Ohio district is being gen-
erally obeyed. A committee from
Wheeling Creek visited all the peddling
banks, and they will be closed tomor—
row. The mines closed today are: Wil—
son's, 6 men; Delach’s, 6 men; Dickin-
son’s,7 men; Meister’s, 25 men; Kochen-
‘line’s, 40 men, and W’rixon’s, 5 men.-
Two hundred more men will quit at
onde. The Etna, Standard and Lough—
lin mill mines are closed, and, but for
the use of West Virginia coal, 5,000 iron
workers would be thrown out of em-
ployment. Gas is being substituted
wherever possible. Many of the mines
closed today have their market in
Wheeling. and this completely shuts
out all but the rail supply for that city.
Coal took another upward jump, and 12
cents is the price now quoted.

, And Remarkable Proofs that
'the National Disease
Long Considered
lncurable.
- Can be Cured and Has Been'Cured
R ght Here In Norwalk
Mrs. W'illiam W. Bloom, who lives at
7 water street, N Orwalk, says: “I have
been troubled with catai'rh in/my head
and throat for some time. My whole
head was stuffed up; the passages of my
head and throat would at times l‘ecome
so filled with mucous that I could not
talk, and altogether it was ve1 y annoy
lug. I also suffered a great deal Of the
time with headaches. I got a bottle of
California Catarrh Cure at. Plaisted’s
d1 ug store in South Norwalk, and I think
it is the 011 eatest stufi in the world. It
has cu1 ed me of all the disagreeable
suffer' mg I have had for so long; my
throat troubles me no mo1 e, and I
haven’t had a headache for weeks. I
have recommended it to several friends
who have fised it with satisfactory re-
sults, and we all unite in saying it is a
wonderful medicine.”
California Catarrh Cure is especially
prepared for treatment Of the mucous
membrane. It allays the inflammation,
checks the disease and arrests and re-
pails the decay Of this delicate lining.
It IS a curative agent. for colds ,coughs
hay fe1 er, bronchitis, asthma, and all
pu1el1 mucous affections. Use it du1-
ing and after a cold and yOu will neve1
have a cold 'hang on,’ ’or even reach
the catai'ihal stage When catalrh is
once firmly fixed in the nasal passages
and thi out, it. beg ms to attack the
mucous membrane of the passage lead-
ing either to the lungs or to the stom-
ach. The 1esult- of the former couise
is ultimately consumption, Of the lattei
what IS commonly called some form of
indigestion 0r dispepsia. It is catarrh
Of the stomach, intestines, kidneys and
various internhl passages. California
Catarrh Cure will prevent and cm 8 all
forms of catai'rh, whatever the part af-
fected, and even \Vlll check incipient
consumption. It is sold by all dealcrzs
:30 cents, three times as ,,much one dol-
lar.

While Bryan, Towne and Altgeld are

lions more to come. I
