PITTSUURG , Pa. , Aug. 15. A leaden elcy
and fitful showers contributed to the feeling
of dcprcrslon which existed at the miners'
campa at Turtle Creek and Plum Creek today.
The men huddled together for shelter under
the commissary tents and having nothing
else to do put In the time smoking and
dlsu.sslng the utrlke In all Its phases. The
Hpltll of aggressiveness , however , has laigely
died out The same grim determination to
tlcc ! It out until starvation brings defeater
or their efforts victory Id apparent , but there
are no propositions to attain their end by
force or to go contrary to the sheriff's or-
dern The men all icallze that In opposing
the law as represented by the sheriff and h'a
deputies they would have about the < > aino
euccesii as In butting their heads against
a stone will. They have nt > particular love
for the deputies , although there Is ca absence
of lhal caustic repartee belwecn the fac-
lions that has characterl/od former ntrlkr.s
There have been no marches today Thlu
has bcc'ii the legular Sunday custom at Ihe
camps bul even If U had been otherwise
strict outers of nil strike leaders to wait
quietly until after Monday would have pre
sented them Sunday has been usually used
by the men to do inltfllonnry work among
the working miners. Ncrio of them at
tempted to sec any workmen and kept he
artily away from the company houces. The
march Into Westmoreland county will begin
ns soon sa the injuncllr-i Is settled In court
Much anxiety Is expicased as to the out
come The men stake everything ru their
ability to show the right to assemble and
march on the public road.
This nftcrnocti there was a large nisns
meeting nt Plum Creek. Ab-mt 1,000 sti Ikrrs
and 200 miners fmm the Plum Creek mlti"
were present. Speeches were made by Piesl-
dcnl Ralchford , Samuel Gompers , Janice R
Sovereign und Ihe local leaders. The meet
ing was orr'erly and there wcs no inteifer-
cnccs from the deputies.
There Is a poeslblllty ot fhe cuslomaiy
march Inking pliee In the early morning
1 ' .a spite of the strlcl orders Usued by Presl-
clenl Dolan against such a course. Some >
ot Ihe men are freltlng under the restraint
and Captain Uclllngham. who Is In charge
of the camp , said tonight that he had not
decided whether to allow the march or not
The deputies are on the alert and say they
will arrest any who may participate.
Evl tl-ns ftom company houses have begun.
One fimlly has already been evicted and
their household goods are on the roadside
near Center. It Is probable other evictions
will lake place lomorrow.
The mealing of the United Labor league
tonlghl , conlrary lo cxpeclatlons , took no
action regarding the miners' strike. Samuel
Dampers and others made eddrcoses , In
which the woikmcn of the cotintiy were
heartily thanked for the Inleiest Ihey have
laken In Iho strike , but no resolutions con
cerning the matter weio offered. The league
decided to co-operate with Ihe New York
Garment Cutters' association In Its endeavor
to have union labels placed on all garmenta
and shoes Offered for sale In the clly. A
committee was appointed to acl with Eman-
liel Raphael , the New York association's

tional leaders will remain In the city a few
days longer.
WHEELING , W. Va. , Aug. 15. The be

plants has developed among the workingmen -
men thcnifeclven , many asserting that a big
mUtiiko has been made. The situation al
the Liughlln mill mine across the river has
been straightened out by the declination of
the miners to work ns long as Iho cam pern

L/EAD / , S. D , Aug. 1C ( Special ) ft was
generally thought that the recent visit of
Goveincr Andie\v Leo to the lllack Hllla
was solely a pleasure trip. A ftvv knew
however , that ho came hero on a matter
of business. The governor had been re
quested to Issue retiulstlon papers for the
return of Henry E. Halley to Rapid City ,
where he Is wanted for embezrlcment. Gov
ernor Lee , knowing of the prominence In
financial circles of Mr Bailey , came to
Hapld City and personally investigated the
matter , after which he Issued the necessary
papeis. Governor Tanner of Illinois has
honoicd the requisition and Mr. Bailey will
Immediately be forcoJ to return and fnco
n serious charge. IJalley has been In Chicago
cage slnco 1895 , where he held a reaporalhlo
position as general agent for the New York
Life Insurance company.
Mr. Halley elands Indicted for the em
bezzlement of seveial thousand dollars from
the Rapid Valley Horse Ranch company , of
which ho was the atslgnee. In December ,
1S92 , M. II. Day , president of this compiny
executed on Instrument of assignment to
Henry E. Halley , who became the assignee
for the ciedltors of the company. Hallo } at
that tlmo was a most successful flimnclci.
Ho was president of the Ealley Loan com
pany of Rapid City ; was Interested In vari
ous banking enterprises In the Dlack Hills
and was known to have unlimited backing
by George L. Farwell , a rich banker of
Claremont , N. H. who , by the way , failed
about a jear ago and fled to Italy , causing
at the time a great htnsatlon In the financial
world. Owing to Bailey's prominence and
success in business clrtles It was presumed
that ho wns a most reliable man for the
icaponslblo duties of assignee. He gave
bonds In the sum of $94,000 , with ample
turetles. In due time Mr. Bailey dlspcacd
of thu property , iccelvlng therefor the sum
of $19,000. At the time of the sale ho paid
expensed amounting to perhaps $4,000 ; since
that time ho has paid to creditors who did
not acquiesce In the assignment about
$2,000 He lint , also paid to Mr Snyder ,
aE.Mgneo for all of the claims filed against
the estate , approximately $6,000. There Is
now about $8,000 that has not been ac
counted for. After Bailey's departure for
Chicago action was brought against him
and In January , 1S9G , ho was Indicted for
embe/zlemenl by the grand Jury. He has
never etood trial , but his arrest at this time
Is for the purpose of bilnglng the case to
trial and permit Uallcy to show what has
become of thn $8,000 that has not been
accounted for In the receipts from the sale
of the Rapid Valley _ liorse ranch.

ney General Grlsby , while In the city yester

action of the State Hoard of equalization lo
rt\ng ! the rate of assessment of railroad prop
erty In South Dakota are misleading. He also
said , touching the criticism of his own posi
tion In the- matter , "that the statute requires
that tlio rctVn mp.de by each railroad thould
atate the value pel mile of each division
and branch. This requirement was not ful
filled by un > of the roads They claimed
that the blanks sent out did not provide for
It. The statute also requlifci the board , In
easu any railroad falls to make the proper
return , 'to proceed to assets such railroad
propel ty on tliv best Information obtainable
. . .nd Miall add 2fi per cent to the aajer able
value thereof,1 This statute is mandatory
I made thu motion to add 25 per cent to thu
valuci fixed by the bouid on each dlvUilon
and each branch of each road according to
this statute Mr Roddle stated that the
constitutionality of that law had been ques
tioned and moved that before the motion
wns put I ho attoiney general should prepare
and submit an oniclal op'nlon This motion
prevailed After examining the question 1
wsri compelled to hold that It/nould not be
safe to piocted under tint statute. My opin
ion Is in writing and on file. If In that opin
ion I have tried then It might with tome
reaoon be claimed that I took an Indcfenslbli
position Hut let no one come to that ton-
rholon without examining the authorities on
the question
"While I disclaim having had any desire
or having attempted to make any record for
political purpom It will bo found on th > -
record that I moved to raise the aracEJiiient
of one Iliiie from $ | ,100 to $4500 per mile
ami that the governor's vote defeated tla
inruioii That I then moved to access same

ore provided for In a previous clause ot Ihe
same section requiring the Issuance of cer-
llflcalcs to graduates ot the State Normal

In those Institutions. The neccwary effect
of this ruling Is dl.-xrlm'nallon ' against grad

A large number of teachers will be affected.
The opinion of Attorney General Grlgsby will

The state railroad commission has advertised ,
as the law provider , th'at ItJwIll on August
28 publish the schedule ot rates established
by the commission to govern rallroada In
carrying freight. This will , precipitate an
other legal light with the railroads , i > nd it
is not Impiobable that the state railroad law
will bo deelared void. The contention of the
railroads Is that the proposed rafs vv 111 be a
reduction 'of 10 per cent aver the present
tariff , and that If enforced it would result la
a loss to them in this state. In his recent de
cision , when an Injunction against the com
mission was dissolved because the ; ' hud
sought to put their rates In operation prior
to luly 1. st , the lavv prescribes. Judge C.ir-
land Indicated that If the railroad ; , could
show lhal the proposed ncnv tariff would re
mit in a loss to them , they would be en
titled to a pcrman'nt injunction This the
railroads claim they will bo able to do

VICTORIA , H. C. , Aug 15. There were In
Victoria this morning close upon 1,000 men
of every cl Jo and from every part of the

the long trip to the new Eldorado. Those
men hid tickets which will carry them In
Skitgway bay on Iho big collier llr'stol , oren
on the steamer lelamler , both of which
sailed today. The Ilrlstol has been flttel
with bunks and stalls for horses from the
bottom of her hold to the top of her cabin
deck , and every bunk and stall Is occupied
closu upon 500 men golu ? on the Bristol nnd
just as many horsea and mules. Even the
big collier Is filled up , the feed for these
animals and the outfits for the men taking
up an Immense amount of space.
The Islander has just as big a crowd , but
much of the space on her Is taken up by
a contingent of mounted police , their horecs ,
dogs nnd outfits. They realize that they
have a winter's trip ahead of them befoio
they reach Dawson City , and arc taking doga
and sleighs. Hordes will be taken ns fa-
as pocslblo and when they are of no morn
use they will be killed and used an food for
dogs A few of the men are going up w i'h

men who become d'Hc-uragod and are turn

PARIS. Aug. 15 ( New Yoik World Cable-

cvnilng papeid tonight on the boulcvaulH Is
almost unprecedented , while on nil hands
knots ot Pailslans , gesticulating with muro
than customary eiieigy , are dlbuusslng , al
most quarreling , over the encounter. Al
though the icpubllcans would fain console
themselves with the rellecllon that Prince
Henil's oveitlnow his killed Orloanslsm far
a gcnciatlon. Trench pride , Irrespective of
party , is deeply hint by the Italian prince's
victory. Happily the mood of the Parlolau
changes quickly and often , foi If thu ptesent
temper weie to last Intermtlonal compllca-
llons would he unavoidable
French anger Is further stimulated by the
persistent reports thai Pi luce Henri was
moro tnferloi lo his opponent In nerve than
swordsmanship and was completely over-
lioine by the violent and reckless onslaught
ot Tin In The opinion Is said to have been %
cxpieswed by Tin In's seconds that If Prince
Henri had proper self-emit ! ol he had an
opening In the second bout which should
cablly have enabled him to put Turin liors-
dc-combal Tin In Is albo said to have dis
played le s than his usual skill and liter
ally overboie his antagonist by his despci-
ale onset from the veiy opening of the en
counter According to an account the wound
In the abdomen by which Prince Henri was
diniblcd was the if suit of his oun clumsy
maladrcsse In parrying the first lunge of hla
opponent. It Is sild he collapsed instantly
and Turin looked In alarm until bis sur
geon approaching asked to bo permltled to
dic- the wound on Tin In's sword hand ,
which was bleeding profusely. The swords
Ubcd had been rubhfd with antiseptic , but
It la nccdjcss to snyr , thnt.lt Pilncc Ilcnrl
has sustained a wound perforating the in
testines the danger of peritonitis Is very
great and will not have passed for some
days. It scorns to afford appreciable giatl-
flcallon to the average Parisian llial Ihe en
counter was a reality , not a sham , but lliat
It was due to the earnestness with which.
Count Turin enlered upon II , not to Princo-
Henri , whose attitude In the duel , aa It had
been In the prcllmliiaiy pom pullers , wa
mainly defensive.
The French authorities , acting , It Is be
lieved. In conceit with the Italian ministry ,
mudo an effort to prevent the meeting , but
wore outwitted by the anangsmenls made-
by lho o In chaigo of lie duel. At 3 o'clock
this morning the pilnclpals , seconds and
doctors left with the utmost secrecy , reach
ing the ground about t , selecting a place
called Ilola dee Marechaux. The swords
wcro now Folecle-l. Prince Henri fought
with bare hands and Count Tin in wore kid
glove' The duel began nt 5 o'clock , tha
morning being dull , but fine and light.
True Count Leontleff for the pilncc. Colonel
Avogadro do Qulnto for Turin , acted altei-
nately as umpires and It had been agreed
beforehand thai tlio bouts tliojild last four
minutes. Both comualanls wcro excited , tha
prince being nervous , whllo the count seemed
overcome wl'h onecr.
THE DUEL IN DETAIL.
The following account Is given by one ot
Iho seconds :
"Al Iho first apranlt each of l ! < o duelists
felt his way and the sword play was not
exciting. Suddenly Turin made a fierce-
thrust. Prlneo Henri Ihrcw back his choul-
der and Ihe blade passed over It , grazing
the skin. The copibat was stopped for a ,
medical examination und was then resumed.
Ilolh were still moro nervous ut the com
mencement of the second encounter , but
they rapidly became warm , premlng one an
other closely and coming shoulder to shoul
der. At the third boul the counl received
a ollghl touch on the buck of hli hand.
Ehoitly after this Incident Prince Henri
made a reckless , misdirected lunge and
struck thn count on the trouhern' button
near the waist , almost snapping his nword.
The prince got a fresh pword The fourth
round was uneventful , though the attack
and defense weio becoming visibly holler ,
Turin particularly coming boldly on with
fuiloiiH Impetuoslly. Every one was
gelling lerrlbly anxious , as Iho swordsmen
were becoming fallgucd and flghllng with
looser guard ,
"More reckless thrusts wcro mdn at the
flflh bout and Ihe end was evidently near.
Prince Henri , after feeling his way , began
an Impetuous attack , the count defending
hlmbclf desperately and slowly letlrlng , All
at once the prince made a wild lunge , whlrh
the count barely parried , immediately re
turning the tin net. The pilnco ovct bal
anced blmsclt slightly and swung to avoid
a blow and received the point ot his ad
versary's sword In thn lower abdomen.
Doth combatants dropped their swords , Count
Leontleff , shouting to cease flouting. npraiiff
forward , raleed Prince Henri and held him ,
In his arms , Immediately Dr. Hartmann
stepped up and placed the wounded man on
the grass Having been undressed and ex
amined by Dr Toupel , the latter decided !
that the wound was not dangerous and baa-
daged It.
"When the opcrallon was completed Prlnc *
Henri , Kllll lying on the grass , celled to
