L. Lewis, are quoted as saying that the workers will not submit to a decrease in wages. Ttyelr remarks are directed more to the situation in the bituminous than to the anthracite region.

It Is Impossible as yet to ascertain whether the sultan's rejection of the powers' demands is absolute or conditional. Mr. Manning-was an Interesting witness and wns questioned closely by Mr. Hughes as to his connection with life insurance. He detadled his work for various companies for many years and worked.gradually up to the time when he took up Insurance work in Albany.

He will report t.» the commander of the Brltisji squad- In return for his retainer from Mr. Nichols, $450 a year. Mr. Manning told the committee that he furnished information about bills at Albany and held himself ready to go before committees to mnke arguments on general Insurance matters. He testified that he was paid "to protect life insurance interests always In the interests of theHiuslness, but not in the Interests of the officers." After several years, he said, the amount was reduced to $300. He did not know, he said, where Mr. Nichols was getting the money and had never inquired. He denied he had ever received money from the Equitable Life Assurance society. When Ills fee was reduced, however, he said he understood that the Equitable, the Mutual Life and the New York Life had each paid $150 and that the reduction was due to the fact that the New York Life had dropped out of the agreement. "If the bituminous and anthracite operatorw Insist upon a further reduction of wages for mining coal It s/lnply means fight. Not only will our members not accept a cut In wages, but they will in all probability demand a restoration of the 5 1-2 per cent, reduction agreed to in the bituminous field last year as well as a raise for the poorest paid men in and about the mines in the anthracite district," said Mr. Mitchell.

He Will Probably Die From Ills In- Principal Owners of tlie Colliery Were There is declared to be evidence that Harrington was a "repeater." It Is known that he had considerable money on election day. In tols cups he is said to have told friends that he had not received all the money that had been promised for his work at the polls aud that he intended "going to (lie front to make a clean breast." His threat conveyed the impression that he intended "squealing" on members of the Paul Kelly association, whose work on election day has been under investigation. Decoyed to Kelly's place, he was made the target of half a dozen bullets. His story of election fraud, If he had one, died with him. juries*—Took a I). & H. Train for W. G. Thomas and M.

Michael Sallnski, a Poltftider, about 60 years old and a resident of Exeter borough, made an attempt at suicide this afternoon that will probably terminate In his death. H?: Jumped froma train going at a high rate of speed and was very badly Injured. He was taken to Wilkesbarre hospital, where it is feared that his Injuries will result In death. It is almost certain that Sallnski deliberately attempted to cause his own death. "My opinion is, after carefully considering all details and incidents of our trade, that there'*will be a national suspension in the mining Industry next spring. I don't see how it can be averted If the operators in the anthracite and bituminous coal fields attempt to enforce their threats of reducing wages and ignoring our union." What the course of action of the com blued fleets will be as a consequence of the sultan's defiant attitude has no'; lieen revealed.

An important colliery transfer took place yesterday afternoon, when the Black Diamond Coal Co., owners and operators of the Black Diamond colliery, In Carbondale, sold their interests to the Seranton Coal Co.. which ;ls the operating company controlled by the Ontario & Western railroad. The principal stockholders of the Black Diamond Co. and the men who have been active In the management of the property are W. G. Thomas, of West Pittston; Myer Schlosser. of this city, and G. J. Thomas, of Carbondale. W. G. Thomas was president of the company, Mr, Schlosser secretary and G. J. Thomas superintendent. As to the purchase price all of the membAs of the firm interested are silent, but it is known that It was highly satisfactory to the selling parties. As a matter of fact, the members of the Black Diamond Co. were not aware to what company they were selling, their agreement having been made with Attorney James H. Torrey, of Seranton. It Is known, however, that Mr. Torrey acted for the Seranton Coal Co., and the officials of that company took possession of the colliery thlsf morning, District Superintendent William L. Allen, of Peckvllle, being in direct control. Lewis added that the miners are making every preparation to meet the issue, and battle for the life of their organization, and to maintain hDe wage scales they now have and better the same. If possible. Karon von Callce, the Austro-Hunga riati ambassador here, has telegraphed. Admiral Hitter von .ladlna for a por tlon of the International fleet to sail to day, proceeding either to Mytilene, au island of the Creelan archipelag i belonging to Turkey in Asia, or for He slka bay, near the entrance of the Dardanelles."Why," said Mr. Manning, "this investigation should have been forestalled long ago. If they had listened to me the whole Insurance matter would hate been ventilated in the eighties. If I am 'rantankerous,' or if the insurance people think I am, I guess it's because they realize their own shortcomings. But the public knows of their shortcomings by this time." Says Insurance Needed Ventilation, Abandoning their policy of concession, counsel for Mayor McClellan at a conference held in the office of Alton B. Parker decided to meet the atteihpt of W. It. Hearst to reopen the ballot boxes with vigorous opposition. Sallnski boarded a D. & H. train, presumably at Cork Lane. He was seated in one of the cars and attracted no particular attention at first. When the train was approaching Hud. son he left his seat and went to the car platform. Without a moment's hesitation he threw himself off and rolled for yards along the side of the track. The attention of the conduotor was called to the man's action and the train was brought to a stand. Sallnski, when passengers reached him, was conscious but weak. His head and body were badly cut and he bore evidence of being Injured internally. He was placed aboard the train and taken to Wilkesbarre, whence he was removed to the City hospital. After an examination was made, he was said to be In a very serious state. When questioned as to why,he had committed the act he said but little. From what he did say It was taken that he had trouble with his family. The second convicted foreigner, Frank Ferrlno, was sentenced yesterday. He was given a year in the county jail and a fine of $500. The sentence was delivered by Judge Ferris, before whom theieane was tried. Chief Doftus was the and the case took up mjuh of yesterday. The evidence was that he was found in the house of Joseph Tozzoiino, on Railroad street, on July 2, with ten other Italians, several of wHom were heavily armed. The house was raided because It was suspected that the occupant was conducting a speakeasy. The jury brought in a verdict of guilty. Mitchell's declaration Is his first comment since he began his campaign of organization In the anthracite fields In this state, some timo ago. Heretofore he has skilfully dodged the issue. Mitchell said: Ills First Comment. Mayor McClellan to Hold Over. There is now hardly a possibility that the contest will end in tline for u certificate of election to be issued to any candidate before Jan. 1, aud it Is almost certain that Mayor McCleflnn will be for a few months at leant n holdover mayor. As such be will not be able to make appointments to office, and the reorganization of his staff will have to be postponed for several weeks at least. EUROPE GETS WARNING Before Mr. Manning was called Charles E. Hughes, counsel for the committee, obtained one of the most startling pieces of information gathered since the inquiry begun, when upon examination of the will of Edward B. Harper, former president of the Mutual Heserve Life Insurance company, It wns found that a provision in the doenmeut practically had caused the election of the company's present head. "We are now In a position- where we can take the public into our confidence. After the great strike of 1902, thousands of anthracite miners, knowing that we had secured a threeyear agreement, unfortunately left the union, feeling themselves secure for the time being. This made the outlook discouraging, but efforts during the past few months have been to bring the men back into the fold. We have been successful. Turkish Reply May Mean Threat o? Anti-Christian Rising. Paris, Nov. 24.—'Turkey's note In re vp|y to the ultimatum of the powers contains a warning that the action of the powers In resorting to a naval demonstration may precipitate an Internal uprising of Mussulmans against the Chrlstlun population of Turkey. This is considered to lie a threat, as it is known that no demonstration of Mussulmans against Christians can occur unless it has the acquiescence of the Turkish authorities. The answer of the porte as a whole is entirely unsatisfactory, as it does not respond to the demand for the extension of the authority of the financial agents of the powers for two years and Is evasive upon the question of the general control by the powers of the financial affairs of Macedonia. All the ministers except the minister of war favored yielding to the ultimatum, but palace Influences led the sultan to overrule the favorable attitude of the porte. In the cases of Frank Condus, Angelo Rozelll and Carmen Lagot, who were indicted for carrying weapons and later disappeared, the ball was declared forfeited. ' As soon as the bail was declared forfeited, Granville J. Clark, esq., acting for the Luierne County Bar association, began suits against those who had gone on the bonds of-the three men. They are as follows: Joseph P." O'Boyle for Frank Condus in the sum of $300; M. N. Donnelly for Angelo Rozelll in the sum of $300, and T. A. Grace for Carmen Lagot in the sum of $300. An Injunction is already In force preventing the board of canvasser* from grunting a certificate of election to any candidate until the count of the void and protested ballots now going on before Justice Giegerich can be finished. A similar injunction will be included in the order for the opening of the ballot boxes, provided such an order is granted as a result of the hearing. This order will hold until the contest is out of the courts. "At the end of this month 100,000 hard coal miners will be paying dues Into our national union. This means that 90 per cent. 9l those eligible to join are members of the organization. When Mr. Harper died and the will was read a clause was found which bequeathed to the Mutual Reserve company a contract with the company which provided that he should receive 20 cents on every $1,000 of Insurance obtained by the company while he remained Its president. The company, however, was to receive the money only if they appointed Frederick A. Burnliatn his successor. Mr. Buruham was elected and is today president of the company. The coal tract which the Black Diamond Co. developed Is owhed by Attorney R. H. Patterson, of Scranton, and Levi A. Patterson and J. J. Simpson. of Carbondale. The breaker and the greater part of the coal are in Carbondale city, but a small p.ortlon of the coal tract is in Fell township. The mine, when opened many years ago, was known as the Butler mine. Later Stroud and Chamberlain, who operated under the name .of the Acme Coal Co. took possession. After the company closed- operations the tract was not developed for perhaps ten years, being looked upon as almost worthless as an investment. W. G. Thomas, however, appreciated the true value of the property, as developments have amply proven. Despite the predictions to the contrary of many who presumed to be posted, the Black Diamond company turned the colliery into a valuable property after possession six years ago. The practical experience of the Messrs. Thomas yielded a tonnage that was surprising. Coal was mined by a new method in the nmaller veins that attracted the notice of mining superintendents hereabouts, many of whom visited the mine to observe* the process.

Of this number 25,000 are breaker boys, about 16,000 are superintendents, foremen, etc., and many of the remainder are barred for one reason or another." Whichever contestant loses today, It is almost certain that heVwill carry up the case. Regarding the nature of the principal demands that will be made, Mitchell said: Blsftel's Gold Medal Sweeper.

Senator Bulkeley to Testify. SPECIAL NOTICES. Atlantic City, N. J., Nov. 24.—Before adjourning sine die the national grange. Patrons of Husbandry, adopted a reso lution declaring "that we, *a American citizens, believe it is every man's privilege to work as many bours as ho wills for pay; that energy, thrift and activity are entitled to encouragement and should command rightful compensation for services rendered-" This Is taken by many as a direct aim at labor unions, which fix ou eight hours for a working day, and may mean a contest between the farmers and organized labor. Anotlier resolution adopted provides that "when a granger is fouud to be dealing in liquor or conducting a saloon he shall be dropped from the roll without notice." Another resolution Indorsed President Roosevelt and "his strenuous conduct of the office." Denver was selected as the place for the next annual meeting. Hartford, Conr.., Nov. 24.—It to stated here that Senator Morgan O. Bulkeley, as president of the Aetna Life Insurance company of this city, would probably go before the insurance investigation committee In New York some time next week.

The Turkish reply gives a serious turn to the negotiations.YOU WILL BE PLEASED with our display of rosaries, watches. Jewelry, etc; no trouble to show goods. It is believed that the most strenuous objection that will come from the operators will relate to the question of union recognition. In 1903 President Roosevelt was criticised severely  Mr; Baer, leader of the operators, anu other operators because he forced them to give tentative official recognition to the striking miners. It is claimed that a desire to wipe out this humiliation rankles in the bosoms of Baer and his colleagues, although Roosevelt's co»l strike commission finally took a stand against the miners by declaring for the open shop. HARRY YASEEN, jeweler, CS N Main St, Condition of Marshall Field, Jr. Bulgaria After Macedonia. Chicago, Nov. 24.—The condition of Marshall Field, Jr., who was shot, was reported as somewhat improved and his chances of recovery as slightly better. The shooting Is pronounced accidental by relatives and physicians, though another interpretation is put on It, due to the position of the wound and the secrecy maintained by all persons acquainted with the circumstances. Mr. Field, it Is said, was cleaning a new automatic revolver on the second floor of the house. He was alqne and no one heard the shot. He was found unconscious on the floor by the butler.
