The predicament of these negroes was described in a let- ter from the United States minister resi- dent, and consul general at Monrovia, to Becretary of tSate Hay at Washington, and transmitted by him to Congressman Brantley of Georgla, The report of Mr. Lyons of Liberia to Mr. Hay is as fol- lows: I have the honor to inform you that in the month of February of the present year a party of fifty-six colored persons con- sisting” of males, . fem; and _children, left Irwin county, Georgia, as emigrants for Monrovia, Liberia, under the leader- ship of one D.

MINERS FLOUT AMERICAN FEDERATION Secretary of Western Federation of Miners Says that They Do Not Care for Funds from Large Organization. LOUISVILLE, Colo., Nov. 13 sult of the concession of an eight-hour day by the operators all of the striking miners in the northern coal flelds will return to work Monday morning. This was practl- cally determined upon at a conference here this afternoon between the operators and a committes representing all of the unions in the district. The operators agrecd to grant an eight- hour day pending the settlement of the strike in the southern coal flelds, on the condition that, if that strike terminated without granting of an eight-hour day by the southern operators the men should be put back to work on a nine-hour basis in the northern coal flelds. The committee of the men recelved this proposition with favor and will submit it for a referendum vote tomorrow, when it is belleved that it will be accepted by the ynions. The elght-hour concession resulted from several conferences held in Denver between officers of the Northern Coal and Coke company and John F. Ream of Ohlo, & member of the national douncil of the United Mine Workers of America and Natlonal Organizer Chris Evans of Ohfo, representing John Mitchell. Mr. Ream sald that the men would agree to a 10 per cent reduction In wages if given the eight- hour day. Do Not Care for Cash. DENVER, Nov, 13.—Colorado union min- ers are not very much concerned over the outcome of the resolution before the Ameri- can Federation of Labor, asking that body to appropriate $1,000 to assist the miners In ecarryihg on the strike. The following telegram was sent to the convention now In session at Boston this afternoon: In the Interest of organized labor waste no time in your convention discussing P Propriations of §1.000 to Western Federa- fon of Miners.

TRINIDAD, Colo,, Nov. 13.—For the first time since the strike of the coal miners in this district was declared on Monday, J. T. Kebler, general manager of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company, is sald to have made advances to effect a sgttlement. To- day, it is autoritatively stated, requested the striking miners to appoint a committee of five men to confer with him in his office in Trinidad. This proposition was rejected by the men, who say the United Mine Workers of America must be recognized before any settlement can be made. The proposition is said to have been made in both Starkwille and Engleville, two Colo- rado Fuel and Iron company camps which have been closed down since the strike wi ‘declared. A number of miners were taken to Pri- mero this morning in a caboose of a Colo- rado & Wyoming train, Several armed Buards went with the miners and they ‘were taken to the mine under guard. ‘Whether they were strikers who returned to work or, men sent herv from other points it is impossible to determine. The company afficfals claim they were returning strikers, while union officlals state that they were #hipped in from other points, Many rumors were afloat today. One to the effect that the operators had acceeded to all the de- mands of the men, with the exception of a recognition of the union, gained wide credence and caused a sensation on the streets this evening. It proved to be In- correct and was promptly denled by both operators and union officlals. No settle- mant is in sight at this time, New York Strike Possible. BOSTON, Nov. 13—The voard of gov- ernors of the Nationa!

About 10,000 men wiil be affected. Federationists Are Busy. BOSTEN, Nov. 13.~There was some pros- pect when the delegates to the convention of the American Federation of Labor as- sembled today that an early adjournment would be taken until tomorrow. This was because the various committees have had little opportunity to consider the resolu- tions which werg referred to them. Since the convention opened the sessions in the day have occupled all the time of the delegates and the soclal arrangements made for them in the evening left lttle opportunity to consider the matters given over to them, Motions that speclal committees be ap- pointed to consider the matter of state federation and that the constitution be amended to provide for a regular commit- tee was adopted. Joseph Valentine of Cal- itornia, vice president of the federation and president of the Brass Moulders' In- ternational union, was appointed in Mr. Mitchell's place on the committes on edu- cation, from which the latter was relieved.

A report that M. H. Sexton, president of the Western league, was in town yester- day seused a flurry among local base ball fans. The report was without founda- tion and Mr. Sexton, presumably, is at his home in Rock Island. Mr. Sexton has been in correspondence with Willlam Rourke relative to the matter of a franchise at Sfoux City, but the rumor that Bexton was about to visit this city and take Rourke with him on a tour of in- spection and Investigation at Sloux City is denfed. Mr. Rourke expects that if Sexton does visit Sfoux City he will sk Rourke to accompany him, but up to this time Sexton has given no Intimation of his intentions along that line. Mr. Rourke fs sanguine over the outlook for base ball next year.! The maln ques- tion now before the Western league Is the disposition of the muddle at Kansas City and Milwaukee, It is announced that the Wostern league cares very little whether Milwaukee is awarded to the Western league or not, but that great interest s manitested over the retention of Kansas City where the Western league has prior and vested rights which it desires to main- tain. > The annual business session of the West- ern league will be held in January and at that time the towns to be given franchises and the schedule will be given considera- tion, It 1s expected that the election of a president to su~ceed Sexton also will be & matter of considerable importance.

Congressman Hull was present, having come from Washing- ton especially to attend the dedication, inasmuch as he has been more interested In the bullding of the post than any other. General Bates was greatly pleased with the post and stated today that he would #end two companies of, colored Infantry here to assist {n guarding it until the ar- rival of the Kileventh cavalry, which will be the first to regularly occupy the bulld. ings. This evening there was a public meeting at the auditorium with addresses by Gen- eral Bates, Governor Cummins and others, after which the army officers resident in the eity gave-a private dinner to the vis- itors.

England Must Be Shown, LONDON, Nov. 18.~From Inquiries made by representatives of the Assoclated Press it is belleved that President Roosevelt's reception of Bunau-Varilla, minister of the Republic of Panama will not affect the attitude of Great Britain towards Panama. While the British government Is quite wil ling to leave the arrangements of affairs at the isthmus to the United States it does not desire to commit itself to recognizing Panama’s Independence until assured that 1s has been established. A special dispatch from Washington says the surprise is ex- pressed’ in administration clrcles that at the fact that Great Britain has mot yet recognized the Independence of Panama was shown to the Foreign office and elicted a statement as follows Great Britain\ has taken similar action to Prance. This does not imply the recogni- tion of Panama’s independence, but merely recognizes its temporary government. PARIS, Nov. 13.—President Rooscvelt's reception of Mr. Bunuu-Varilla as minister of the Republic of Panama is regarded here as giving complete assurance of the permanency of the new republic. It prob- ably will hasten the remaining formal- ities of the French recognition. HAVANA, Nov. 13.—It has been decided by the cabinet that no recognition will be glven by the Cuban government to the new Republic of Panama until that re- public has been recogniged by some of the other Latin-American E.m-ernmmu. Events at Colon. COLON, /Nov. 13.—Cutters from the American warships here were dispatched this morning to stop the German steamer Markomannia, which was seen two miles off, towing a launch towards the harbor. It was thought that Markomannia was coming from a Colomblan port, but it appears that it had been chartered at Bocas del Toro, to bring the alcalde of that port to Colon. There was a big scare at Bocas del Toro on the receipt of news by way of Port Limon, Costa Rica, lhat the Colombien government was sending 6,000 troops to retake the port, which had recently declared its alleglance to the new republic and the alcalde left on Markoman- nia for Colon for the purpose of obtalning arms and ammunition with which tg equip 500 volunteers to resisc the expealed Co- lombian attack.
