STRIKE LEADERS
ARE CONFOUNDED
Energetic Action of Government
Puts All Their Plans
Awry.
REVOLUTION IS BROKEN
Most Drastic Measures Will Be
Taken to Prevent Con?
certed Uprising.
Madrid, September 20.?The strike*
In many cities of Spnin continue, but
the revolution seems to have been
completely confounded by the prompt
and energetic action of the government.
The postponement of the general strike,
until to-morrow is regarded as In?
dicating that- the back of the movo
mont Is broken.
The government, while preparing to
take tho most drastic measures, does
not lose sight of the democratic Idculs
which have inspired Its program.
Premier Canalejas declared to-nlghc
that, martial law notwithstanding, th?
government woulO respect the right to
strike, if legally followed, but he gave
fair warning that if the employes of
the public services strike without giv?
ing the previous? notification as re?
quired by law, the promp'.eat measures
would bo taken to end the strike.
Other strikers, he added. w?u stepped
outside the pale of the law would be
mercilessly prosecuted, aed at the
? lightest sign of revolt the troops
would use their arms without hesita?
tion
"All those who wish to demonstrate
in tho streets will have tholr chance
to-morrow." said the Premler. "I am
determined once for all tr> finish with
these mutteringa of revolution."
So far as a censorship of great se?
verity allows conditions to be known,
there wore no serious disorders In the
provinces to-day. Most of the princi?
pal agitators either were laid by tho
heels, or their artlniiB were crippled
effectively. Telegraphic and telephonic
communication has been cut orf from
all suspected persons. Including the
Republican and Socialistic leaders.
Houses have been searched and arms
?elsed, and the prisons are crowded
with rioters and political suspect3.
The activity of the government KecmH
to have had n salutary effect on the
workmen, und the authorities nre con?
fident that to-morrow's tjcnernl ctrlky
will prove more or less of a fiasco.
King Alfonso has announced his in?
tention of remaining in Madrid until
the crisis Is over.
According to the official news re?
ceived to-day, the situation generally
has Improved, and the government be?
lieves that the movement will be ill
over by Monday. Hllbno Is quiet. At
Saragossa work was resumed this af?
ternoon. The stores are open at Huel
va, but at Alclr.i the strike Is com?
plete and the civil guard was forced
to-day. to Intervene to prevent pIlliKe
?jf the provision stores.
Madrid presents Its usual nppetr
r.nce, except for the presence of the
police in the streets.
Thanks to the stimulating tonic ef?
fect of a pure medicinal whiskey.
It is most gratifying to receive such
letters as one here reproduced from Mr.
L. F. Andrews, who is eighty-three years
of age and still a hale, hearty man, full
of vigor and in possession of-all his facul?
ties.
Mr. Andrews comes of good old New
England stock. He was the first man to
engage in newspaper correspondence work
and the first to send a news message over
the first telegraph wire ever strung into
Des Moincs, la., which is now his home:
"Allow me to say that 1 have been using
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey for some
time as a tonic stimulant, and relief to
the exhaustion and debility consequent
of njy age (83), and find it palatable, satis?
factory in therapeutic effect and free from
the injurious by-products found in most,
if not all, other whiskies. I must say it
is gratifying to obtain a preparation re?
liable and conforming to the declaration
of its purity attached to each bottle."?
Li F. Andrews, S31 W. Fifth St., Des
Moiric*, la.
: Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey
Many men and women who have passed
the fourscore mark tcU the same story as
Mr. Andrews about what Duffy's Pure
Malt Whiskey has done toward renewing
their youth and keeping them vigorous,
hale and hearty and in possession of all
I their faculties. As a leading doctor says,
i the secret of the whole thing is that Duf
, fy's Pure Malt Whiskey, if taken as pre

t'nreat In West Virginia.
Notwithstanding this mild hint on
the part of the Supreme Court. It Is
claimed by the committee sent from
Virginia that West Virginia has Ig?
nored Its messnge nnd so far failed to
make any provision whatever for tho
conference suggested, and that its
Legislature has been allowed to ad?
journ without making any such provis?
ion.
In West Virginia there Is apparently
much unrest over the situation. The
Governor Is being sharply criticized
In that he called a special session of
the Legislature and made no mention
In his call of the debt situation, and
allowed that body to adjourn without
alluding to it in any of his messages.
Under the cirsumstances many West
Virginia statesmen hold that had the
Legislature taken any step at the spe?
cial session in regard to a matter not
mentioned In Its call. Its action would
' have been null and voll.
A sharp attack on the ad,mlnlstra
! tion of West Virginia for what is
? termed "gum shoo policy" was made
Monday last In tin address of United
States Senator Chllton, 'who, In the
course of a general discussion of
Stnte issues took up tho matter of the
Virginia debt.
Chllton Attack" Governor.
The Charleston. West Vlrglnln,
Gazette reports that portion or Sen?
ator Chllton's remarks as follows:
"He called attention to the thrPnt
of the Virginia debt ? how It was In?
juring the State. lie said that tho
twenty-five years that the Democratic
party had run this State there had
been no suit by the State of Vlrglnln.
But whether It was an accident, mis?
fortune, bad management or not. the
Supreme Court of tho United States
had held that this State owes to the
State of Virginia ?7.000.000. not reck?
oning interest which Is yet to be pass?
ed upon. He said that this Is a mat?
ter that rises higher than politics.
West Virginia has submitted herself
to the Jurisdiction of the Supreme
Court, and according to its decision hnd
suggested a conference between this
State and Virginia. During the next
month the Supreme Court will bpgln
Its regular session, and the State of
Virginia threatens that on account of
the management of tho account by this
Stnte, a motion will be made to. take
up the question of Interest and nnk
tho court to give a judgment against
this State for the Interest, as well as
the seven odd millions of dollars of

said the Senator, "and for her inter?
ests, whether they suit or not, I am
too patriotic to attempt to embarrass
the State administration purely for pol?
itics, but It Is the dpty of the State
administration to be frank with the
people. f
Xot Prunk W Hb People.
"If that administration hn.-- anything
tip Its sleeve it should let the people
know what 'It Is. To have this ques?
tion to drag along and thus lose every
motion, and to lose at every trial,
until wo have over $7.000,000 plied up
against us. and then to have the threat
of millions of Interest, and the time
rapidly approaching when this will
culminate Irrto a decree, make.; a con?
dition that calls for the highest pa?
triotism of all the people and demands
the utmost frankness upon the part of
the State administration.
"So far as I am personally con?
cerned, I do not hesitate to say that
everyone having this matter In charge
should deal openly and frankly with
the people. If the people are to have
this great debt to pay. they shjbuld
know It. If there Is. a reason why we
should not confer ? sivrcli the State of
Virginia, as suggested by the Supreme
Court, the people should know it. If
there Is any way by which the people
of this State can escape this enormous
obligation. rTie people outrht to know
it. If we are to march up and pay
principal and interest, and this Is the
policy of the State administration,
then the truth should bo told to the
people and arrangements made to
have It over with as soon as possible.
What I object to Is the failure of the
State administration to jutljno Its full
policy to the people. Th.>re should be
no 'pum-shoe' tactics and no conc< al
ment. The Governor .?hould h*ve re-c?
ommended to the last seajlo-i of tho
Legislature some policy. That s^sslcn
could enter 'Into no business except
that provided for In the call of thi
Governor. He did not provide for any
consideration of the Virginia debt.

In connection with that debt would
