no authority to do. The aide-de-camp an
secretary further asserted that Garcia ho
not denied the legality of the actual revoln

cepted the suprcmacy'of the United State
But It appears Garcia has officially c.i
pressed the opinion that the present Cuba
government , owing to lack of numbers an

VIRDEN , 111. , Oct. 14. Colonel Young's
Illinois cavalry today relieved Battery H of
guard duty In the city. All trains
with ft eight or passengers otopplng
hero are carefully searched for negroes.
Two hundred members of the First cavalry
ami Second Infantry , under comanil of Colonel
nel Young , are hero today , nnd 175 more art
expected before night. These , with the 12S
men In the Galcsburg battery and Elgin
company of the Sons of Veterans , will give
Colonel Young a force of over 600 men.
The arrival of Colonel Young's command
has caused a feeling among tUo strikers
that the negroes will be kept out at all
hazards.
A bad scare was given the engineer on a
freight train going north today. Apparently
the freight had orders not to stop at Vlrden.
as they were going at a very high rate of
speed insldo the yards. Suddenly there was
a loud report from a torpedo on the tracks ,
a signal that is used by the militia to bring
the t-ains to a standstill. The engineer
cither did not hear the report or decided to
pay no attention to It , for the train quickly
gathered speed. Quickly there came another
report , and tins ttma It was from a couple
of Springfield rifles In the hands of the
soldiers on the depot platform. This time
there was no doubt that the signals would
bo observed , as the engineer with a very
white face threw the lever over and applied
the brakes In such a manner as to leave no
doubt that ho was willing to obey orders.
After the cars had been searched the train
was allowed to continue on Its journey north.
As the result of a meeting held by a num
ber of union miners during which the 'Jerrl-
ble fight of Wednesday was discussed , a war
rant has been sworn out by Virgil Bishop , a
union miner , charging the managers of the

When the coroner's Jury arrived at the

Patton of Springfield , 111. , who Is manager
Lukens' attorney , and also by a representa
tive of the legal department of the Chicago
& Alton railroad , who is hero looking after
the Interests of the railroad company. Dr.

the first witness called today. Ho recited
in detail the Incidents leading up to Wednes.
day's battle and told the story of the fight at
the north gave , whcro ho was In charge of
the company guards. He was sure that his
men did not open the battl ? , and further
more ho asserted that ho cautioned Uhem not
to flro on numerous occasions during the
battle.
The most Important testimony was that elI
I , A. De Barros of East St. Louis , who was
In charge of t'he ' special guards on the train
that was fired on In Wednesday's battle. In
his statement De Barros said that when the
train carrying the imported negroes had
reached a point about ) 100 yards south ol
the depot. the firing began from
the exterior on either side of the tracks , and
that ho gave orders to the men to drop t <
the floor of the car. He stated that the
occupants of the car were colored men
women and children , and that when ho gav <
those orders ho could hear the women ani
children screaming and yelling that thej
had beeu shot. After the depot was passei
ho said the fire became very fierce agali
from the outside and continued until thi
train reached the stockade. When th <
train drew up alongside the enclosure hi
said that It was met with another voile ]
of shots from the cast side of the track , op
poslte to the stockade. After the flrlni
ceased , he heard the order from the gati
of the stockade : "Come out ; pile ou
quick , " which he thought came from Dr
Preston , captain of the stockade guards
Do Barros stated that he and six negroe ;
ran straight Into the enclosure wlthou
stopping. He asserts that the guards 01
the train had not fired a single shot dur
ing the whole engagement.
PANA. 111. , Oct. 14. A telegram was re
ceived today from Vlrden , saying that In al
probability Operator Lukens , of the Chicago'
Vlrden Coal company , would attempt to lam

bloody \rlot \ , wore shut out at Vlrden. /
conference was Immediately held by tele
phone between Captain Harris , Company G
Aurora , 111. , commanding the mlHtla here
and Adjutant General Recce and Governo
Tanner at Springfield. The conference re
suited in the governor ordering Captain Har
rls to Immediately put on a guard at each o
the coal mines and at the approaches of cad
railroad Into Pana and under no clrcum
stnnccs to permit any Imported negroes t' '
land iu Pana.
In mining circles hero the negroes wh

MATAAKA MAY IIKCOME THK UULKIl.

of Tripartite Treaty.
WASHINGTON , Oct. 14. While the gov
ernment of the United States gave Its sanc
tion to the return to Samoa of Mataafa , tha
ilcposcd king of the Island , this was ac
corded before the death of Malletoa , the
reigning king. The action of the United
States was rather In the nature of clem
ency and there was no Intention at the time
to assist In any way In the restoration of
Mataafa to the throne. Now , however , as
the chief Is on the throne and ready to
profit by the existing hiatus In the Samoan
government It Is very probable that he will
become the successor to Malletoa. Ho must ,
however , accomplish his ends strictly within
the terms of the tripartite treaty , which
provides that the Samoans shall chose their
own ruler , -according to their own laws and
customs. The arrival of Mataafa at Apia
has not yet been reported to the government
here , but It Is not doubted that the unoffi
cial report to that effet Is correct.

cure an amendment to the constitution

lish uniform laws on the subjects of mar
riage and divorce throughout the United

CliaiiKc In Prayer Hook.
A petition recommending a radical change
In the prayer book was summarily tabled
176 to 147 against the piotest of Rev. Mc
Kay Smith ot Washington that In nil con
stitutional bodies petitions were of right
received and respectfully considered.
Rev. John Williams of Nebraska said ho'
brought a mesfaage from the Swedish arch
bishop denying that the Swedes were favor
ing church unity and declaring that the
Swedish bodies entering the Episcopal
church had been misrepresented. Rev. R.
H. Weller of Fond du Lac declared from ex
perience among the foreigners in Wisconsin
that this movement when tried had proved
an absolute failure.
After much debate the final disposition
of the question went over until Monday.
The house of bishops adopted a proposi
tion extending the offenses for which bish
ops may bo tried to include conduct un
becoming a bishop. Another amendment
adopted extends the provision against alien
ating church property. A special committee
of bishops was created , consisting of the
bishops of Chicago , New York and Vermont ,
for the examination ot candidates for holy
orders. The bishops discussed nnd pre
sented articles Ir , vll nnd vlll of the consti
tution , already passed by the house. Article
vll covers the "provincial system. "
Nominations were made for the vacant
bishoprics in North Dakota , Sacramento
and Boise , but the names were withheld
until final action Is taken.
At 2:30 : o'clock this afternoon both houses
adjourned In order to permit the bishops
and deputies some 100 In number to start
on the pilgrimage to Jamestown Island ,
j near Richmond , Va , , where 300 years ago
i the church was first established In America.
