P' iTIie.eoal dealers are almost universal in -ihfeir belief that there will be no imrtjfeiiaie drop in the price of coal.

Even then,'" he added, as an afterthought, "they would not decrease promptly, for there would have to be produced enough coal to make up for the deficiency in supply first.' "The statement recvently published in The Tribune that the minei^,' demand for higher wages would all'ect the situation very materially was correct/' he said. "The assertion that they would demand more than^Lhe operators would be willing to pay was verified very promptly by their action when they resolved io ask for an. increase of from 18 to 25 per cent. There will likely be a struggle, and the 'operators will likely make hay while the sun shines and make money now to carry them through that strusjrle."

A WILD RUMOR.

Reported That a Girl Had Been Murdered in the North Part of the City.

A rumor became current last evening that a girl had been murdered in the northern part of the city on Maple avenue. Many people.were eagerly asking for information regarding1 it as the newspapers published no accounts. When the report was finally traced to its source was found to have originated with a newsboy, who, in order to sell his papers, was drawing on his imagination and telling people all about the thrilling murder.

GRADUATES FOR SURE

ANNOUNCEMENT OF SUCCESSFUL HIGH SCHOOL PUPILS.

COMMENCEMENT WEDNESDAY

Change in the Cast of "Mr. Bobs" is Made—John Fishback will Fill the Vacancy.

The last of the High school graduates fin/x. examinations were taken this

2

This list must, go before the school board before diplomas are. awarded but the action of the board is merely perfunctory and there is no danger of any of those who have passed the examinations failing to receive the "sheepskin." Of those who tried for the class only one failure was reported, although several persons came within a very close mark of falling. Had it not been for these, soinTr, of whom had to take a second examination the list of graduates could have been announced sooner.

The class exercises this afternoon were a great success and were attended »y many friends of the graduates. The teachers tendered the January '03s, a reception immediately after the exercises. On next Tuesday the class play, "Mr. Bob"' will be given at the High school hall. By an unavoidable change in tne cast John Fishback, a June '02 graduate, is to take the place of one of the regular actors. Mr. Fish back's ability was clearly exhibited in the June "02 class play.

Commencement takes place Wednesday evening at the opova house and after the exercises the roarers will be given a reception. Col. W. E. McLain will deliver the commencement address and music will be furnished by the class, assisted bv some outside taient.

alleged that Casto used abusive language toward her. Until a few days the complaining witness lived with her mother in Air. Casto's house on North Third street, but got married and she and her husband were preparing' to begin housekeeping. The mother had given the girl some articles of household furniture^ and when an attempt was made to remove them, Air. Casto feared it was a scheme to avoid paying the rent due him and objected. When the girl attempted to take the articles, ho followed her into the house.%nd, it was claimed used abusive anguage. After lie was fined, he found that he could not attach the household goods for rent, and promised the court that.-Airs. Holly could come and get the articles without interruption or interference by him.

FIRE IN COUNTRY.

Charles Smith's Home on East Crawford street was Totally Destroyed "Early Today.

The home of Charles Smith at the corner of Twenty-fifth street and Crawford was totally consumed by fire at 1 o'clock this morning. It is believed that the building took fire from a defective flue.

After the fire was detected it was too late to accomplish any thing farther than the saving of a few household articles. The fire had to be fought with buckets and by the neighbors, it being outside of the city limits with sonsequently no fire protection. Smith formerly worked as checkmn at the E. and T. H. freight office but recently he has been engaged in truck farming. He lost practically all of his household goods together with his peroperty.

As she was lifting a. coffee pot from the stove the vessel was over turned spilling the boiling contents over Miss Bonebrake's arm' and hands and they were badly burned by the hot liquid A doctor was summoned and bandages were placed on the injured members, relieving the. intense pain. It will be several weeks, however, before the patient can again use her hands.

New Smallpox Cases.

The smallpox situation outwardly assumed a brighter* look this morning but the board of health is.but little encouraged on account of the great number of persons exposed". Dr. S. M. Rice says it is but a lull in the storm. Hundreds of persons have been vaccinated, but. not before they were exposed to the disease. I*, takes from ten to sixteen days for a case to develop and the disease may begin appearing again within a few days. The Dailey house under quarantine at North Fourteenth street will be released Tuesday The board of health is preparing to file charges agains a. number of persons for failure :to retwrt casefc of smallpox and for violating quarantine rules. Several physicians may be among those prosecuted. It was reported to the board thrS morning that Sin unknown youn£ wis seen riding on one of the city street cars,.with her face badly broken out-, supposedly with smallpox. No new cases were discovered, yesterday evening or up to noon this morning.
