This decision was arrived at after an all day meeting in this city which wan attended by representatives of almost all the large producers, among them tlld Lackawanna, the Lehigh, the Reading, the Delaware and Hudson coal companies and about 40 others. At this meeting a committee was appointed to formulate a statement of the position taken by the producers and their reason for it. It Is believed, from evidences now seen In the son, that a period of great activity is hi progress there and that the effects of this immeasurable force will be seen during the next five years in what are known as'"sun spots." These sun spots Are (supposed to be gPeat solar volcanoes or other disturbances of the sun's surface In some visible way. The spots can beD seen easily by observers during the years tip to 1005, when the maximum will have been reached. These supposed cavities sometimes go to a width of about 20,000 miles and then break up into separate spots or cavities, sometimes separating at the rate of 100 miles an hour.

A Badfontein dispatch, dated Sept. 3, says that hostilities which were begun the day before between the forces of General Buller and General Botha in the mountains above Lydenburg have been suspended. General Buller's casualties since Aug. 21 have numbered 270. In this statement the United Mine of America are accused of attempting to mislead the public by making various false statements. While this la bor organization claims a membership comprising nearly all the mine workers, about 143,000 in number, the producers say that investigation shows that only 10 per cent, or about 14,000, of all the employees of the entire anthracite region are members of the organization and that only a small percentage of the members desire to strike. The energy seht out by the same force that causes th£se sun spots intist be enormous. There are some reasons for believing that before the spots themselves make their appearance to the sight the energy is at work and la radiated from the sun to the planets of this system. At all events, the sun spot periods are usually notable on the earth for peculiar manifestations of electrical energy. The electric storms that have been seen in New England lately ore due in some degree to the solar energy and the electricity sent to the earth as a result. Such, at least, is a widely received scientific theory.TO BE WELL DRESSED 1 lot of infante' long cashmere cloaks, nicely s trimmed, a very protty garment; special prioe for the week 91.00 each.

The committee declares that the earnings of the mine workers have not been reduced in more than 20 ye^rs,.not withstanding periods of business depression and reductions in the soft coal regiops, Which reductions enabled the soft coal operators to take away a large percentage, of business formerly supplied by anthracite coal. The miners' wages are based on payments of so much per car or per ton of prepai-ed coal, and difference in veins the different amount of work to be do».e to attain the same result.Special to the Gazette. , Washington, Sept. #■—General Challee reports to the Wa» Office from Pekin, under date of Ang. 28tb, a« follow.: "Officers end soldier, of the ChlneM relief oolumn send tb.nk. to the President and Secretary of War for their message of oongratnlatloo.

It may be that the sun spots or the energy of which they are merely the result works in some fashion that cannot be easily traced. During the past three years, when the sun's energies have been at Work, strange things have happened in the world. Is it merely a coincidence? If so, it is at least worth notice that coincidences of this kind are not rare, if one takes the trouble to look up the 6tory of the civilized world in the few years preceding each period of outbreak of sun spots, say, in the past 50 years. To trace back the periods, reckoning 11 years as the cycle, the beginning of sun spot outbreaks would be reckoned in 1889, 1878, 1807 and in 1850 in such a count. These dates are not exact, because the period of duration Is not exactly measurable in units of years. Still it is surely worth some notice that before the period of 1850 there came the desperate outbreak of the war in the Crimea; that before the period of 1807 the United States was ravaged by civil war to an extent hardly ever recorded in the history of any other country, and that the great tragedy of Lincoln's death had been recorded; that preceding the sun spot period of 1878 there came the harrowing experiences of France, culminating In the communist riots, and the Russian-Turkish war; that before 1881) came the Roumclian revolution, the nihilist outbreak in Russia and the war with the Afghans, and that before 11)00 came the war with Spain, the Jameson raid and the consequent war between the Boers and the British.

"The average prices of anthracite conl are no higher today than in recent years," says the statemeiit, "and they are much below those received in 1892.

It is also interesting to note how financial movements of importance have accompanied the manifestation of sun spots in the past half century. Each period has been accompanied by great business booms and the climax and disappearance of the sun spots in close proximity to a financial panic, except in 1801, when the immense preparations for war in the United States rather caused better business. Since that date, however, the year8 1873, 1884 and 1805 were years of widespread financial and industrial depression. This coincidence is also striking enough to be noted. Of course, such coincidences do not prove that the energy or the reaction in the sun causes such results on the earth, but it is at least remarkable that the sun's energy and the human energy on the earth s hould have run in cycles so chmely alike.'—Boston Advertiser.
