COMMISSIONERS 60 70 HAZLETON Will Spend Four Days There Inspecting Coal Mines. Both Sides Will Be Ready for the Hearing Within Two Weeks. SRS SCRANTON, Pa., Nov. 2—The mine strike commissioners left for Hazleton to- ht to spend four days in further ac- quainting themselves with the physical features of mining. They had not decided 1p to the time of leaving how they would divide their time while in the ‘middle and lower districts. It was definitely decided, | though, that not more than four days | would be devoted to the trip. . Assistant Recorder Neill was left be- hind to receivé the miners’ statement from President Mitchell to-morrow. Ou‘ Thursday it is expected that the oper-| ators’ counter statement will be present- | ed. The commissioners will then take a | recess until Friday, November 14, by | which time the two parties will be ex-| pected to have completed the preparation | of their cases and be ready to go on with the hearings. The commissioners will aiso devote the interim to preparations for the hearings by aequainting them- selves with the details of the two state-| ments. | Bishop Spalding preached at the late | mess in St. Peter's Cathedral this morn- | ing. His fellow commioneirs attended the service and occupied front pews. The Bishop's sermon was based on the tenth | verse of the thirteenth chapter of St.| Paul's epistie to the Romans: “Love worketh no il to* his neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.” No reference was made to the work of the commission, and only in a most gen- eral way could the sermon be made ap- plicable thereto. | The commissioners will remain in their sleeping-car all night. They will be met | 2t 9 o'clock in the morning at Pond Creek, about nine miles north of Hazle- ton, by Thomas Duffy, president of that district of the Mine Workers’ Union, who | will represent the miners. General Su- perintendent Warriner of the Lehigh Val- | ley and General Superintendent Richards the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Company | will represent the operators. The mines| which the commission will visit have not | vet beem decided upon. Superintendent Varriner has suggested the No. 40 shaft, cperated by his company. The miners r to have the arbitrators inspect the rwood colliery of Pardee & Co. There are twenty-five mines in the Hazleton re- gion, and all but No. 40 shaft are entered by means of a slope. The commissioners on Saturday requested both sides to agree | on one mine, and if they fail the com-! mission will probably decide the matter. French Miners Agree to Arbitration. f LILLE, France, Nov. 2—A meeting was | held here to-day between delegates of the cosl companies and the striking coal min- | ers in the department of Du-Nord. Fail-| ing to come to an agreement, it was de- | cided to refer the question of an increase | in the miners’ wages to arbitration.

H LONDON, Nov. 2—A tremendous sen- sation was caused here to-day by state- mente that another scandal of the Oscar | Wilde type was about to become public | property. It is asserted that the man whose name is connected with the affair, and who is a peer, has fled the countr: but there is every reason to believe that he is at present lying ill at an English watering place. A report of this affair found its way into print, in guarded language this morning, but every effort | will be exerted to prevent further publicity. ——— Livingston Jenks for Superior Judge is the right man in the right place.

MARCONI TELLS - OF SUGGESSES Sends Wireless Message Nearly Sixteen Hun- dred Miles. Will Soon Have Stations i;; Every Quarter of the Globe. Special Dispatch to The Call. SYDNEY, N. S, Nov. 2.—Signor Mar- coni said to-day: “I shall work night and day for the next week. I am ex- ceedingly pleased with this station. It will be quite the equal of my station at Poldhu, Cornwall, when the powerful re- ceiving and transmitting instruments which I have brought out with me have been installed. “l1 am uncertain as to the length of time we shall find necessary to get the instru- ments installed, but if everything is ready before I leave Cape Breton I shall at once commence experimenting with the Cornwall station. Before thede in- struments are tested as to their power of receiving and transmitting between Can- ada and England they will be subjected to thorough and complete tests by the help of the Carlo Alberto. “‘Although we had a very rough passage we were conducting important and valu- able tests during our nine days’ trip across the Atlantic. While rough weather often rendered the experimenting exceed- irgly unpleasant, it did not, of course, in- terfere in any way with the transmission of messages. “We tested the steamer’'s instruments | with the Poldhu station with excellent | results, taking messages from between 400 jand 50 miles. The instruments of the ship, of course, are weak compared with those of the land stations. The ship can | 2end messages up to 200 miles and receive | ug to 1000, and with the greatest ease from 400 to 500 miles. No messages passed between the ship and this station owing to the fact that the apparatus here was not fully ready for this purpose. “The longest ordinary message we have yet transmitted was for a distance of 1381 miles, the longest signal, however, being for 2099 miles. ’ “We propose to erect stations all over the world,” gontinued Marconl. “The work is now going on in England, the United States, Germany, Holland, Bel- gium, Congo, the Dutch East Indies and clsewhere, We now have about thirty-five stations actually working. Counting in the ships there are seventy. Seventeen of the ships are working commercially, as are twelve of the land stations. “The Carlo Alberto was given to me for =ix months, and I feel greatly indebted to the generosity of King Humbert, who |takes the deepest interest in scientific work."” . RUSSIANS JAIL THE JAPANESE Alleged Spies Are Im- prisoned by the Czar's Police. e Special Dispatch to The Call. VICTORIA, B. C., Nov. 2—The Rus- elans are watching all Japanese closely in Siberia, where, according to trust- worthy reports, Japan has a number of spies. The steamer Athenian, which ar- rived to-d: reports that the Vladivos- tok correspondent of an Osaka newspa- per and three Japanese, who claim to be clerks returning from Harbin, where they had been employed, are imprisoned at Viadivostok. The correspondent, who is also engaged as a merchant at Viadivostok, had been invited by a Russian forestry official to visit him at Bashara, twenty-five miles from Vladivostok, and was en route there when he was stopped by police and his satchel was searched. A map of Si- beria, compiled by the Russian Ordnance Department, was found in his possession, and his arrest as a spy. followed. He ap- plied to the official, but the latter could do nothing to secure his release. The three others were selling medicines to Koreans en route from Harbin, where, they said—and their passports bore them out—they had been engaged as clerks. Sketches of some of the Russian military barracks seen en route were found in a sketch book owned by one of the trie, and all were arrested. Protests were made to the Russian officlals at Vladivostok by Japan regarding the arrest of the Jap- -nlese, and a serioug” controversy may re- eult, TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION IS ORDERED REINSTATED Federation of Labor Finally Settles a Long-Standing Controversy in Chicago. CHICAGO, Nov. 2—The Chicago Feder- atian of Labor to-day rescinded its act of expulsion against Typographical Union No. 16 and offered to reinstate the dele- gates when they apply for admission. The action of the Chicago Federation is due direcfly to an order from President Ramuel Gompers of the American Federa- tion, who commanded it to reinstate the typographical union by November 10 or lose its right of affiliation with the na- tional body. He, in turn, was stirred up by the Tnternational Typographical Union, which notified him that unless he issued the order it would withdraw from the American Federation, To-day's action terminates a two-year controversy that had its origin in a strike of the newspaper pressmen of Chicago. When the printers refused ' to join the strike or give the strikers their moral sup- port, maintaining that to do so would be to violate their five-year contract with the newspaper publishers, their delegates were expelled from the Federation of La- bor. . —_———— Amendment No. S makes it impos- sible to secure any reduction of rates for any public serviee. —_——————— Explosion of Gas Kills Three Men. NEW STRAITSVILLE, Ohio, Nov. 2.— Maurice O'Brien, miner; Charles Samp- son, stable boss, and Herbeért Coran, bookkeeper, ‘were Killed by an explosion of gas in the Lost Run mine, owned by the Buckeye Coal Company, near here to- day. It is supposed the gas- found its way into the mine from- an adjoining mine, which had been abandoned for sev- eral years, probably through'an opening made by digging out. the coal. No one knows how the men came to be in the mine, but it is believed they went in to explore it and that the gas was ignited by the lights they carried.

Defeated Magnates. LONDON, Nov. 2.—Not the least re- markable feature of the “tube” railroad controversy here is the appearance of such firms as the Morgans and Speyer Brothers as contributors to the corre- spondence columns of the London news- papers. The Speyers followed up the ac- rimonious “tube” debate in the House of Comimons Thursday night by publishing an open letter in the London papers dis- claiming all responsibility for the defeat of the Morgan bills and explaining that they had bought the United Tramway shares in the course of usual business long before the rupture between the Mor- gans and the United Tramway manage- ment. * The Morgans replied through the Yimes, characterizing Speyer Brothers’ explana- tion as “entirely incorrect,” recounting the history of the Yerkes Company and declaring that the Morgans have been purposely kept in ignorance of the sale of the United Tramway stock until the very moment the London United bill was with- drawn before the Parliamentary commit- tee October 21. Curiously enough, Sir Lewis Mclver, chairman of the House or Commons Rail- road Committee, who was a bitter partici- pant in the debate of October 30, writes to the Times explaining that he did not mean anything by his vigorous condem- nation of members of the Stock Exchange for connection with the ‘“tube” tangle, and declaxing that he believed the pur- chasers of the shares in question were perfectly within their rights. L e e ] ) ROCK [3LAD -~ BRANGHING OUT Soon to Have Outlet to the Pacific Coast. el DENVER, Nov. 2—The Colorado Springs Gazette is authority for the statement that Colorado Springs is to have another | outlet to the Pacific Coast, as well as a new road which will tap the immense coal fields in and around Trinidad. Within sixty days, it is said, contracts will be let for the building of 265 miles of road by the Rock Island system, connecting Pueblo and Santa Rosa, N. M. The Rock Island line from Liberal, Kemsas, which connects with the Southern Racific at El Paso, runs through Santa Rosa and the proposed line from Pueblo to Santa Rosa will be the connecting link in the Rock Island system between Colorado and the Pacific Coast. The Rock Island uses the tracks of the Denver and Rio Grande between Colorado Springs and Pueblo and when .the line from ‘ Pueblo to Santa Rosa, N, M., fs finished, it is understood, the Rock Island will lay its own tracks from Colorado Springs to Pueblo. Another important step in the exten- slon of the Rock Island system has just been completed. Several months ago the Burlington, Cedar Rapids and Northern Railway was made a part of this system, and immediate steps were taken to ex- tend its own line to the Twin Cities. The work has been completed, and to-day trains of the Rock Island system com- menced running over their own rails into Minneapolis and St. Paul. Trains were formerly operated as far as Faribault, and it was from that point the line was extended. The Union station in St. Paul will be used by the new line and in Min- neapolis the station now occupied by the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad will give excellent terminal fa- cilities, This new step gives the Rock Island system its own line direct from Chicago to Minneapolis, St. Paul and the North- west, and places in direct communication h the East and South the Twin Cities, Northfield, Minn., Faribault, Minn., Owa- tonna, Minn., and other important points in a very valuable territory. PASSENGERS ARE LEFT ON SHORE AT NOME Terrific Storm on the Far Northern Coast. Makes. Traveling Dangerous. TACOMA, Nov. 2.—Sixty passengers were left on the beach at Nome when the steamship John S. Kimball sailed from that port early on the morning of October 21. The pasSengers were ready to leave Bering Sea for the winter and had berths engaged on the Kimball. They were to be taken out of there on the barge at 10 o'clock. At that hour a tremendous storm was in progress, the wind blowing a gale in which no barge could live. The passengers with their belongings returned to their homes and are expected to ecome down on the steamer Nome City of the same line. The storm caused other steamers to seek shelter behind Sledge Island. The Kimball could not do this because a clause in her insurance policy required her sailing on that day. She was unable to unload 400 tons of coal on which her charterers would have made a handsome profit. Taking chances, she swung around into the teeth of the gale, the storm continuing until she reached Unimak Pass. At the risk of their lives Captain A. P. Mordaunt and five others paid six dollars each to be taken through the surf in a small - boat to catch the steamer just before she sailed. In a letter written from Sitka, Captain Graham of the schooner Ralph J. Long says his vessel came near going to the bottom during the three days following October 4, when she passed out from Cape Flattery. She encountered a storm which the captain describes as the worst in all his sea experience. For three days seas washed over the schooner and Gra- ham was unable to leave the wheel. The Long started for Ketchikan, but being helpless in the gale, could not make that port and headed for Sitka. —_————————— Livingston Jenks deserves your vote for Superior Judge.

LADRONES DEFY ILL AUTHORTY Behead a Presidente and Slash His Wife to Death. Friendliness With Americans Is Said to Have Caused the Murders. { * MANILA, Nov. 2.—A portion of a gang of ladrones which has been operating on the island of Biliran, just north of the island of Leyete, where they committed various outrages, crossed over to the isi- and of Leyete last Wednesday and enter- ed a small town near Carigara. Here they captured and beheaded the Presidente of the town, murdered his:wife, who they slashed with bolos, and abducted the Pres- idente’s children. The motive of this crime is said to have been the “Presidente's ‘friendliness with the Americans. Ladrones are -again active in the provinces of Rizal and Bulucan, Luzon. Members of the native constabulary en- gaged the bandits twice during the past \week at points close to Manila, and suc- ceeded in killing a number of them. The constabulary are capable of suppressing these ladrones, Reports received here indicate that the situation on the island of Samar is better than has been recently represented.

INEZ, Ky., Nov. 2.—Pleasant Spreading, held for the kKilling of his 4-year-old son and his I5-year-old daughter, is threat- ened with lynching. Spreading’s family con- sisted of a wife, three daughters and son. ‘With_ his daughters and boy the father ‘was herding sheep last Friday. The boy was unable to keep up with the others. The father placed. him on a stone beside a spring, telling him to wait until his re- turn. The boy, becoming tired .of sitting still, began to peel the loose bark of a tree that overhung the spring. Presently the father returned, and, noticing the bark on thé ground, asked’thé boy who had done it. The boy replied that he had. “I would rather have you dead than raise you to destroy everything on the farm,” is the reply the father is said to have made, and then, it is charged, he picked up a stone and struck the boy on the head, knocking him down. Then, it is alleged, he kicked the prostrate baby in the head until he had killed him and, turning to his daugh- ters, threatened them with a like fate if they ever told what had occurred. After- ward he went home and said the boy, while chasing sheep, haa run against a tree and killed himself. Becoming alarmed, he took his eldest daughter and went to the mountains. His wife hired neighbors to bury the body of the child, and then went to the home of Judge E. Hensley. She told him of the death of her fon and saild she suspected her husband, who told her he was going to the mountain woods to hunt squirrels. She added that at different times her hus- band had threatened to kill the whole family. The Judge took her with her twa younger daughters to his home and pre- sented the case to the Grand Jury. One of the little girls told the jury that her father had kicked the boy to death. Shortly afterward a Sheriff’s posse cap- tured Spreading in the mountains, but his eldest daughter -was not with him. Spreading’s daughter appeared to-day, barefooted and ragged, after her escape from her father. She was immediately taken before the Grand Jury and testi- fied as to how her father killed the boy and threatened her life and that of her mother. Bhe said that he would have brained them heretofore but for the inter- ference of neighbors. The advocates of Amend 8 are avoiding public dis the vicious measure. PRESIDENT VISITS HISTORIC BATTLEFIELDS Contest at Cedar Mountain Is Ex- plained to Him by a Par- ticipant. BRANDY STATION, Va., Nov. 2.—Pres- ident Roosevelt passed several hours this afternoon on the battlefield of Cedar Mountain. Accompanied by Secretaries Root and Cortelyou, Dr. Rixey, Judge Grimsley and two or three ladies, Presi- dent Roosevelt arrived at the battlefield shortly after 3 o’clock. The battlefield is dotted here and there by monuments marking the positions of the troops during the fight. The contest was explained to the President by Judge Grimsley, who is now a member of the bench of this judicial circuit. The Judge was a captain in the Sixth Virginia Cav- alry and was a participant in the fight. The President, a cayalryman himself, was interested particularly in the account of the famous First Cavalry charge. In the very heart of the battlefield Pres- ident Roosevelt held an informal recep- tion. Many people had gathered from the surrounding country and after Judge Grimsley had described the battle the President received them informally. This morning the President and his party attended services at the Baptist Church of Culpepper. The church was crowded and at the conclusion of the ser- vice President Roosevelt cordially greeted the pastor and many members of the con- gregation and introduced them to those who accompanied him. Subsequefitly the party took Iuncheon at the residence of §. Russell Smith, a brother-in-law of Dr. Rixey. To-night the President is again the guest of Represen- tative John F. Rixey at his country home near this village.

Men Lost From a Schooner Are Rescued After Long Suffering. Special Dispatch to The Call. VICTORIA, B. C., Nov. 2—The steamer Athenian, which arrived to-day from the Orient, brought among her = passengers two seal hunters belonging to this port ‘who had long since been given up as lost by their comrades. The hunters were Willlam and Clarence Baker, who were iost from the sealing schooner Geneva, in company with a Jap- anese boat steerer, on August 6, when the Victoria schoonér was engaged in hunting seals off the coast of the Copper Islands. The Geneva returned to Victoria two months ago and reported the loss of the two men, and their friends had since re- garded them as drowned, although some time afterward a gleam of hope was oc- casjoned as a result of the schooner Di- rector from the Copper Islands, which vessel reported that a Japanese schooner had endeavored to flag her in that vicin- ity. From this fact it was reasoned that she had probably picked up the missing sealers. This surmise turned out to be true, for the lost sealers were picked up when all hope had been abandoned by them by the Japanese sealer Hako Maru, belonging to Tokio, Japan. The schooner carried them back to the Japanese capital at the close ,of vhe sealing season. Thence they were shipped to Victoria on the Athenian by the British Consul. . The- Baker brothers, whose mother was mourning them as lost, state that they ‘were lost from their schooner as the re- sult of a mist which appeared very sud- denly. They left the vessel, as usual, on the morning of August 6 and were soon enveloped in a fog. Try as they would they could not find -their schooner, and night came upon them. For three days they drifted about the sea in the mists, vainly trying to find their schooner, and suffered great privations before a boat from the Japanese schooner Hako Maru was sighted. They were rescued just in the nick of time. ‘When picked up by the Japanese schooner their provisions were almost gone, their water was gone and they had but three small pieces of biscuit left. They were exhausted as a result of the cold, each of the three having been chilled by the surf which swept over their open boat. Count Tolstoi Is Il ST.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 2.—~Thomas E. Gibbon, vice president and general coun- sel of the San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake road, has returned from Salt Lake City, where he had been in consul- tation with Senator Clark and the repre- sentatives of the stockholders of the Ore- gon Short Line. Gibbon made the statement that he was not at liberty to disclose the results of the Salt Lake City negotiations, but ad- mitted that the trend of events gave Sen- ator Clark and his lieutenants strong hcpes of soon reaching an agreement with the Short Line stockholders. Ferd K. Rule, auditor and treasurer of the San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake Railroad, said to-day: “You understand, of course, that in ex- tending its lines the San Pedro, Los An- geles and Salt Lake road has borrowed no money for building operations. In other words, it has issued no bonds, but has called on its stockholders for the cash when money was needed. Some of the people intereted did not care to put any more money into the scheme, and an agreement was reached at Salt Lake City during the recent conference there by which Seénator Clark and R. C. Kerens bought out these interests. Those who sold were George H. Layton, C. E. Lay- ton, Thomas H. West and others. They tepresented numerous St. Louis stock- holders. They were not forced out in any sense of the word, and while I am not at liberty to state the terms of the deal T am certain they received a high price for their stock and that the settle- ment was entirely satisfactory to them.” Only sbout forty of the 736 American vessels in the whaling industry in“1346 re- main in active pursuit of the animal to- day.

T Special Dispatch to The Call. RICHMOND, Nov. 2.—The existing po- litical conditions in Contra Costa County are not-lacking in interest it for no other reason than that the registration shows a large increase and the Republicans have every foundation for hope of landing on the top of the heap, with the Democrats unreported. At the last election the Republicans car- ried the county by a majority of 421 Since that time the towns of Richmond and Point Richmond have added to the Great Register about 660 votes. There has also been a considerable increase in other precincts. The total registration in 190 was 4702 as compared with 5354 this year. Sheriff R. R. Veale is to the very fore- front in popularity and support and will not only carry his own section easily in eastern Contra Costa but was sure of seventeen precincts yesterday. He con- tinues to make rapld gains and many of those who had been credited with oppos- ing him are discovered to be among his most loyal friends. Veale ran ahead of his ticket at his last election. In seven precincts Assembly- man Williams, now candidate of the Dem- ocrats for Sheriff, received 352 votes and Ivory, Republican, 208 votes for Assembly- man at the last election. In the same precincts at the same election Veale re- ceived 201 votes. Williams beat his Re- publican opponent by less than one-hall while Veale received two and one-half times the vote of his Democratic oppo- nent for Sheriff in the same precincts. That is the way Veale is running now and he is working like.a hero for the ‘whole Republican ticket. He stands well with new voters. Henry V. Alvarado, Republican candi- date for District Attorney, is running particularly strong. Lane will have a considerable independent vote, but the Republican forces are too large and vig- orous to make it possible for apprehen- sion as to the result.
