“I hope that the building will be large

MINER S WALK OUT.
Operators W««ld Not Comply with Tixolr
Contraots Caused tits Strike.
Knoxville, Sept. 80.—All the miners
in the Jellico district, with the excep¬
tion of those employed in the Wool¬
dridge and Standard mines at New¬
comb, are out on a strike. The cause is
the failure of the operators to live up to
a contract made two months ago re¬
garding screens. When and the the differences miners
were then settled re¬
turned to work it was agreed that the
screens should uot exceed 72 superficial
feet in area, with 1 1-4 inch spaces be¬
tween the bars. The Wooldridge and
Standard mines changed their screens
to oomply with the agreement, lmt the
other mines failed to do so. They kept
putting the men off with the premise
that they would make the change every
'fhe two months’ contract being up,
and the screens not being changed, the
men went out. Everything is quiet in
the district, and no fears of any trouble
are entertained. The operators will
make the change demanded and the
miners will, it is understood, return to
work. The demand for coal is heavy,
and the loss of any time means the loss
of much money.
CHINA IS DOOMED.
I* Ear* Ex-United States Marshal Frsd
Wilson Who Ohs Lived Thsrs.
New York, Sept. 20. -Ex-United
States Marshal Fred Wilson, who was
stationed in Shanghai several yean ago
and has traveled widely in the Orient,
■aid after reading of the great battle:
“I predicted this cfltMtrophfi to Chmfli
three weeks ago, and if the war con¬
tinues it will be an almost unvarying
series of defeats for China. No barba¬
ric people can stand np before an en¬
lightened nation moving upon (he im¬
proved lines of civilization. There are
worse troubles brewing for the Chinese
government. I see a peace party has
sprung np in provinces of southern Chi¬
na. This apparently beginning innocent of demon¬
stration is the a movement
to hamper the government with a view
to its overthrow. The present Tartar
dynasey has long been unpopular with
the masses, and! expect to see its down-
tall. Without European thrashing interference,
Japan will go on the Chinese,
and will march on Pekin and seize it.
In that event a Chinese revolution is in¬
evitable.”
