STRIKE SETTLEMENT BLOCKED.
Operators and Miners at Odds Over
Powder Question.
Hazleton. Pa . OcL 19. Tbe settlement of
the b'S strike of anthracite mine workers
Is undoubtedly blocked by the question of
the price miners will be asked In future to
pay for powder.
Emplojcrs have agreed to pay their men
i per cent more than they were paid
before the strike began, but tlie insist that
in figuring the net advance of 10 per cent
the reduction of Sl.Z a keg In the price of
powder sba'.l be taken Into consideration.
The miners apparently want to g back to
work for the 13 per cent advance and then
rrbitrate the question whether they ore to
get their powder cheaper as an additional
condition.
It Is not believed that the mine owners
will grant any such demand, and their re
fusal may mean the indefinite prolongation
of the strike.
The spirit of Jubilation that prevailed in
this resion on Wednesday has given way to
a feeling of disappointment. This is appar
ent everywhere.

Washington. Oct. 19 Administration offi

the cabled Interview with Count Lamsdorff.
Rusia'h Minister for rore'gn Affairs, out
linli g Itussla's pollcv in China.
M Dewollant. the liusslan Charge d'Af

Russia made formal declarations of her
purpose to the Powers when on Aucut
. last, her diplomatic representatives, in
accord nice with Instructions received from
St. Petersburg, repeated that she had no
territorial designs on China: that her pur
rose was to act with tlie other Powers In
ei-tnblisliing tho safety of tho foreign lega
tions in Tekln and to nid tho Chinese Gov
ernment in suppressing disorders Her oc
cupation of Manchuria was solely for de
fensive purposes"
In the official view ther can h no with
drawal br Russia from this declaration, ard
the officials express den Hatisract'on til it
through Its Minister for Foreign Afilrs the
Rus-inn Government has agiin given e-pres-dem
to Its pollcv along lines identical
with those sot forth in its officiil circula
te the Powers
The authorities fullv understand tint Rus

MERLIN Ft RT1IEII II- TIMIKI.
Berlin, Oct. 19 The joint note of Li Hung
Chans and Prince Chlng has not made .1
good impression In Government circles
here. The general comment Is that the
noto re ids more like conditions imposed
upon the conqueror than the reverse.
Doctor Mumm von Schwartzenstein. Ger
man Minister to China, will arrive In Pe
kin in the course of a few dujs. LI Hung
Chang and Prince Chlng will bo informed
formallj of tlie conditions upon which the
Powers have agreed. Germany takes the
view, however, that such a declaration by
the Powers could not be considered tho
commencement of negotiations, as such .1
step as negotiating for peace would onl
be possible after the removal of all doubt
that LI Hung Chang and Prince Chlng are
fully empowered by the Chinese Imperial
court.

FERRELL'S FIANCEE
ON WITNESS STAND.
Self Confessed Train Robber's
Sweetheart Testifies Against
Him He Breaks Down.
Mir.sUHe. O. Oct 11 Miss Lillian Cost
low, who was engaged to be married to
Ferrell. the clf-oonfeseMl train robber, was
placed on the stand late this afternoon. Al
though quite nervous, she did not at nnj
time Ios- her composure She hesitated at
time's, but It was evMeiitlj' the result of her
de'ire to be explicit and positive rather
than to evade the questions.
She said she had become engaged to Fer
rell in September. 1S91, a"d that shortlj- aft
er the date for the wedding had been flxel
for August Hi. l'tti. She told of the prepa
rations for the wedding and of the money
that Ferrell had given her to keep for him
the day following the train robberj-.
She said Terrell had tola her that ho had
drawn it from a building and loan associa
tion, and that It represented his avinss.
She did not know the amount of the money.
It was. in two packages, one containing
gold and the other bills.. She also told the
storj" of Ferrell's arrest at htr home on
Suiidaj. two elajs after the reibberj-.
Kdward M Weiodcock, a prisoner In the
I'nlon County Jail, was placed on the
stand and repeated a confession Ferrell
had made to him It tallied clos-ly with
that made bj Ferrell to the Columbus, po
lice. When .asked bj- the defense how Terrell
had come to make tho statement to him. he
said:
"Terrell must be 'cracked.' "
Ferrell was taken sick in the Jail to
night and a phjsiclan attended him. He Is
apparentlj- weakening, and It Is feared he
will have a nervous collapse.

O'Clock This Morning Xt

TAYLOR BLAMED FOR ABSENCE.
Commonwealth's Attorney Bitterly
Ciiticised Ilim Nelvm Refened
to Packtd .luries, The De
fendant Is Slightly Better.
Georgetown. Kv., Oct 19 There will be
no v-rd'et in the Youtev c,s,s to-nigl t.
vvhen court met nt S : to-n!(,lit. the ejs..
was forimllv submitted to the Jurj. Tlie
Judge told them thev could us- their own
pleasure about eor-idi ring the ci" to-night
or to-morrow mo'iiing.
They decided to take the papers to their
rooms to-night and report back .it 9 to-morrow
morning and thev were sent to their
bcardlnc-housn with that understanding.
Yoiit-rVs condition to-Jilght is better than
jesterdaj. He Is taking nourishment to
dnv without trouble, and phvticlans stiy his
tempernture. pulse and respiration are nor
mal. e1non Mentioned Tncked .Inrles.
Colonel Nelson began his speech In the
Youtsev trial at 9 o'clock to-daj. He said
the belief existed that Juries are lieing
"packed" In th:e cases, "for the defend
ant had been urahle to secure a Juror of
hl own political faith to sit in t-e case."
Continuing. Colonel Nelson asked the
Commonwealth's attornej- whether he
wouli ask that Yout-ev- be tried for firing
tho shot or for aiding and abetting the fir
ing. "I will leave that for the jury to dfter
mlre." responded Franklin.
In referring to Tout-cy's, present pbv s'cal
condition. Colonel Nelson said he felt like
asking: "Can a dead man have n fair trial
as guaranteed by the Constitution? That
Yout-ey is to all Intents and purpose of
this, trial a dead man.
Spoke for Flv Ilonr.
He said Yout-ev had .1 right to deferd
the Executive building If It hail been at
tacked, and his having a gun on January
T wa not suspicious because ev.rv other
man in that building was nrmed nt that
time.
Continuing, be said the testimony plainly
showed that Yout-ej- was not even In con
templation of any crime, and that John
RIcketfs -tnry thnt Yout-ey took twelve
men into th hall and stationed th-m there
shortly before the shooting was completely
de-trojed.
NeNon took up an the testimony and
commented on It in detail. He sjvike 'or
five hours and did not conclude till after
2pm
Franklin eorel Tnjlor.
Commonwealth Attorney Franklin be
gan Ms speech at HCS this afternoon and
spoke till T o'clock Ills eloquence at
times was thrilling and he brought sobs or
tears to all. even Judge Cantrtll en the
bench and Julge Askew of tlie defense be
ing visibly affected.
He scored ex -Governor Tavlor. saying if
he had two sparks of eourag he would re
turn here and help Youtsey out of this
trouble, if anv of the witnesses had lied on
Yout-ev: that If T.ajlor hud even only one
spark of manhood he would now commit
suicide under tb whip or his con-clence.
He fitted .all the testimony togethr. .an!
told the Jurv that nil those thing t'stln'd
to could not have been occidental. He -aid
lr Arthur Goebe had told an untruth as to
what Yout'ov told him. then Arthur Goebel
was .a worse man than the one who assas
sinated William Goebel
He cited many incidents as told bv other
wltn-svfs that corroborated what Youtsey
told Goebel. and said ex-Governor Bradlej's
absence as a witness practically eorrobo
lated Culton'a testlmonj as to Youtsev.
frr if Culton did not have a talk wlt'i
Urad'ej-. then he ought to be willing to go
a thousand miles to confound Culton and
save Youtj from death.
At 7 o'clock court adjourned till S.20.
when th" rase was formally given to the
Jury bv the Judge.

THE AMERICAN HABIT.
One In Every Three Affected.
Of the 73,000,000 people In America, It to
estimated that Z,000.OSO. or one In srery
three, are partially d'sabted from a broken
down nervous system. America Is the)
greatest consumer of coffee In the world.
Can jou draw the correct Inference from
these two fact?
Many a person will exclaim. "Nonsenjef
It is eaiy for any thoughtless person to jurnn
at u. conclusion that a philosopher woula
tudv carefully over before reaching-.
Think of the members of your own family.
How man) of them are perfectly and com
pletely well in every respect? How many of
jour friends arc perfectly healthy? Inquire
of them nnd jou will 1 surprised to learn
that tho average eif one lnevery three who
an sick. In the main, stands true. Health,
depends, primirllv, ujon a perfectly poised
ne-vou". organization, and tho greatest
known mmv to t'le nervous sjstem Is esaf
lee. Its active I rinclpal Is caffeine, which.
Is .1 pronounced nerve destroyer. The ac
tion Is, first, to attack the stomach, then
the piicumogastric nerve, which lies behind
the stimach and which is directly connected
with the brain.
Tlie disordered condition passes thence
from the brain to all tnrts of the body, and
In tome it will show In trepidation (well
known nervous condition): in others this 1
hidden, but the work goes on from day to
day, until some dav the accumulation cf
forces climaxes in some organic disease. It
maj be the kidnejs become affected and
Rtlghta dlseise sets up. It may be weak
c i.r. may be catnrili. stomach trouble, pal-
I Itation and heart failure (which Is be
e nlng moro and more noticeable among
Americans).
Somewhere, ou ma)- depend upon It, this
work will show forth in the form of disease.
It may become so Hied and chronic that It
cannot bu thrown off. It is hard to Induce
II man or a woman to give up coffee when
thev have become addicted to its use, but It
sucli people can be given Postum Food Cof-f.-
thev will qulckl)- change for the better,
for the foex! drink, when rronerlv made, has
1 etcn a more beautiful color than the or-
ernarj' coitee. ami nas the delicious, tooth
some flavor of edd government Java of the
milder and higher priced grades.
The work of reorganiratlon begins at
once, for the tearing-down element of cof
fee has been elimintted. and in Its place the
strong rebuilding effects of the elements
contained In the foenl coffee go elirectly to
work to rebuild the broken-down delicate
gra matter in the nerve centers and brain.
This Is just plain, old-fashioned common
senso that any thoughtful person can make
use of: in fact, hundreds of thousands of
brain workers tn America have already dis
covered the fact and are using Postum
Pood Coffee, to their very great benefit and
relief.
