LONDON. Aug. 30. The Roumanian pre
mier, M. Sturdza, recently visited Vienna,
where he had a long conference with Count
Goluchows:tl, the Austro-Hungarion min
ister of foreign affairs, on the situation In
the Ealkans. He alo conferred with Gen.
Von Heck, chief of the Austro-Hungarian
general staff. Immediately after this visit
articles appeared in the semi-official Hun
garian .papers articles believed in some
quarters to le inspired by Count Golu
chowskl warmly protesting against Rus
sia's intrigues in the Balkans. These pro
tests were based on rumors that Russia
was massing troops on the Roumanian
frontier and pending torpedo boats into the
Killa, an arm of the Danube, and they
plainly warned Russia that, unless she
faithfully adheres to the Austro-Russlan
agreement of 1S97, to preserve the status
quo in the Balkans, Austria "will resume
her liberty of action." The idea underlying
this warning appears to be that Russia,
having attained her objects in Eastern
Asia, is now ready to pursue similar alms
in the Balkans. One Berlin paper has gone
eo far as to describe the agreement of 18i7
as "an instrument to keep Austria quiet
while Russia is engaged in Manchuria,"

Armenians killed will depend upon the
outcry raised in Europe and the pressure
brought to bear unon the Sukan. The
same horrible process will be reicated
year by year until all arc killed."

ANTHRACITE MINERS ACT
RESOLVE TO COXTIME THE l.MOX
CAIID INSPECTION' SYSTEM.
Alao Empower Offleer to Declare n
Strike If Contrneta Are Vio
lated by Employers.
HAZLETOX. Pa.. Aug. 29. With the
adoption of the report of the committee on
resolutions the United Mine Workers this
afternoon practically finished their work.
The convention will adjourn at noon to
morrow. The tesolutions recommend writ
ten Instead of verbal agreements with all
the coal companies, strict compliance with
the present contract, continuation of the
car inspection system as now conducted,
and instructs President Mitchell and the
district presidents to confer with the coal
companies regarding card Inspection and
violation of agreements and to arrange for
a joint conference. These officers are vested
with power to declare a strike if contracts
now in force are not lived up to.
The resolutions call attention to the ad
vantage resulting to both miners and oper
ators by a written contract covering the
wage rate for a stated period and speci
fying the conditions of labor. The com
mittee allege that Instead of agreeing to
the request for a written agreement the
various companies posted notices of an
indefinite character. In many instances
the resolutions state that written notices
posted and verbal Agreements made by
superintendents with committers have
been violated under various pretexts. Em
ployes who derived the benefit of the 10
per cent, increase have. It Is claimed, ben
discharged and new men placed In their
positions at the old wages. The committee
states In the resolutions that If the miners
are reaulred to live u;i to their agree
ment then the coal companies should do
likewise, instead of seeking to destroy the
Mine Workers' organization by intimidat
ing the men. Hereafter the miners will
Insist upon written agreements, which hall
be signed in Joint convention before the
present contract expires, and they will
lso Insist upon the present working card
being continued until the question of a gen
eral working badge for the bituminous and
anthracite regions is decided upon at the
next national convention. The following
recommendations are made:
"That the unions continue to collect the
working card of the union and use all hon
orable means to induce those who are not
yet members to become such; that a com
mittee of the national and district presi
dents be instructed to proceed to the high
est authorities of the coal companies and
to endeavor to overcome their objections
to the Inspection of working cards, to call
their 'attention to the many violation of
contracts by their agents In the coal fields
and insist on the contracts being lived up
to. and to make such preparations for a
Joint convention of operators and miners,
to be held before the first of April next, as
they possibly can. This committee shall
have discretionary powers in the enforce
ment of the contracts now existing even to
the extent of ordering u suspension of work
for the purpose of enforcing It."
The question of the miners connecting
themselves with Central Ibor I'nlons was
referred to the respective districts.
National President Mitchell and the three
district president were constituted a special
committee to whom has been referred the
grievance of the Delaware & Hudson men
in the Scranton district, with respect to
the laying of roads In their workings.

on which was Inscribed "Carrie Nation's
Joint Smasher."
"I left New York to go to Danville but
will return to New York at once, as I lec
ture there Sunday evening In Carnegls

much of the vice, cither.
"You read about my Interview with Po
lice Commissioner Murphy In New York.
Well, he is Just like all the rest. He won't
answer any questions and carries water
on both shoulders. Oh, he Is bad. No. I
don't think I will go smashing with my

Mrs. Nation had a conversation with Pa
trolmen Cronln and Jordan at the l.'nion
