THE CLAIMS OF EACH SIDE.
An'Immcnse Sum of Money "Due Em-
ployees Held Back by the De Armitts.
Mine Power House Burned and
Several Animals Poisoned.
Pittsburg, Aug. 26.-—-No marching was
done by the striking miners in the De
Armitt mine coal region during the
night or today. The roads are.in a
very bad shape from the recent heavy
rains, and the men remained inside the
lines of camps. During the day they
quietly sauntered out in small groups
and continued their missionary work
among the miners. The campers are
much encouraged with their attempts
at proselyting and will continue the
work during the afternoon and° early
evening of each day. They claim to
have induced 10 men to quit work at
Oak Hill today, and that many more
will be out tomorrow. This is pay day
at Oak Hill, and the campers believe
that :after the men have received their
money they will join the strikers.
At Plum Creek the strikers seem to
be losing ground every day. Today the
company decided that every man who
did not go to work at once could not go
at all hereafter. They say this will be
enforced. A few men who have been
prominent in trying to induce miners
to strike applied for work, but were re-
fused.
The De Armitts made a statement re-
garding the Plum Creek mines. They
say that on Aug. 16 81 pit cars were
taken out of the mines there. Since
I - then they say the output has increased
50 cars daily, and that last Monday 400
pit cars were taken out. The capacity
is 600 cars.
A Large Sum Held Back.
It is said that the De Armitt company
has held back in wages due at the three
mines about $20,000.
The company claims that the reason
that the output of coal has been so
small with so many men at work was
because many of the men simply went
into the mines to keep their jobs, not
working any more than they had to.

The Alleged Kid~.-:--. for “’11? Lorena] There,
but “'35,.3'1‘ot. Arrested.
Philadelphia, Aug. ZED—Albert S. VJar—
nor, the New You; lawyer who is want-
ed at Albany for complicity in the kid-
naping of the Conway boy, has been in
Philadelphia, but he gave the detective
department the sliprand has not yet
been apprehended. Chief of Detectives
Miller said today that he received a tel-
egram last night from Mayor Thacher
of Albany stating that Warner was'be-
lieved to be in Philadelphia and asking
that he be placed under arrest and held
if the police department could locate
him. Detectives were immediately pu'
on the case, and it was learned that
Warner had been stopping at a boarding
house on North Thirteenth street. The
place was visited by the detectives, but
W'arner had evidently become apprehen—
sive of arrest, as he had left the board-
ing house and had not returned up to
today.- The detectives are following up
the case, and Chief Miller expressed the
belief that Warner has not left the city
and that he will yet be captured here.
Later in the day Chief Miller held the
belief that Warner had escaped from
the city. The chief is considerably vex-
ed that the Albany police authorities
did not communicate sooner their belief
that Warner was in Philadelphia. The
first intimation that Warner was sup-
posed by the Albany police department
to be in Philadelphia was given to the
chief by a newspaper man who had re—
ceived a query from Albany. The chief
at once communicated by telephone
with the Albany chief of police and the
latter admitted that it was an over—
sight that the gluthorities of Philadel-
phia had not been earlier notified. As an
outcome of the telephonic interview the
telegram was sent by Mayor Thacher
formally requesting VVarner’s arrest.
The chief now thinks the delay'of the
Albany authorities in, notifying him
has permitted the slippery lawyer to
escape arrest here.
COUNT MUTSU DEAD.
He Was One of the Most; Prominent

Washington, Aug. 26.—A telegram was
received at the Japanese legation today
announcing the death of Count Mutsu,
ex-minister of foreign affairs and Jap—
anese minister to tie United States 1:;
1888. The news was not at all unexpect-
ed, as the count has been ill with lung

ent De Armitt said that he had no rea-
ers’ camp at Plum Creek, has been in a
turmoil for the past 24 hours.
It was pay day, and trouble started as
soon as the men got their money. Dur-
ing the night three more colored men
were shot, but none will die. Thomas
Cash, who murdered John Kelly on Sun-
day, has not yet been captured. An
armed force is still scouring the woods
for him.
A Power House Burned.
The power house of the Federal Coal
company, operated by E. W. Powers at
Federal, Pa., was destroyed by fire at
an early hour. The flames spread ap-
idly, and great diffiCulty was experr nc-
ed in saving the tipple.
There seems to be no doubt that the
fire was the work of incendiaries, as
three men were seen running down the
railroad a few minutes before the flames
were discovered.
Since the strike was started Mr. Pow-
ers has made himself unpopular by
threatening to import colored men and
start his mines. The Federal mines were
operated by machinery. " -,
Striking minersare accused of poison—
ing the mules in Sterling mine, No. 8.
at Hastings, Pa. One mule has died,
another is missing and four more are
extremely sick. _The company is re-
ported to have had the carcass of the
dead one examined, with the result of
proving that its death was due to poi-
son. It is understood that the mine
will be closed and the tracks removed.
It is one of the largest mines in Has-
tings, and is the one at which the men
and Superintendent Nicholson have had
so much trouble.
In West Virginia.
Wheeling, Aug. 26.—The organizers
began active work in this state again to-
day. At 'Fairmont another camp has
been established, and tomorrow the
marching from camp to camp willbegin
and continue till the courts stop it. In
the Kanawha. and New River valley the
‘marchers will avoid going near the
mines in bodies, but will scatter among
their homes. President Ratchford sent
a telegram from Pittsburg to the leaders
in the principal West Virginia fields to
keep up the fight till after the St. Louis
conference at least, and there will be a
big increase in the force of agitators
here this week.
' There has been a slight falling off in
coal production the past few days be-
cause more was being mined than the
market demanded.
Some attention is again being given to
cokemaking on the Norfolk and West-
ern road.

Madison, Wis., Aug. 26.—Wisconsin’s

inates against the-commerce of other

When hostilities were over, he was a
member of the peace convention and
framed the treaty which secured to Ja-
pan such great commercial and polit—
ical advantages. His services to his
country were equally marked in foster-
ing the new party movement that for
several years prior to the Chinese war
had eagerly absorbed every material ad-
vantage offered by western civilization.
It was due to this as much as to any
one other thing that Japan in that war
was able to meet her huge but unorgan-
