Thus, under imperial protection the Boxers preached the doctrine that It was the foreigners and not the Empress Dowager woo had aroused the wrath of the gods.

The Meeting Yesterday Was Postponed Till Todav, and Todav's Till Next Thursday. The C. E. Loss & Co. had been summoned to appear in court yesterday afternoon at '1 o'clock to show reason why K. II. Cates should not be appointed receiver permanently, he having been appointed temporarily receiver for that company. They asked postponement till 4 o'clock, and then another till 8 this morning. At 8 this morning thev asked a post ponement till next Thursday, which was granted. It is believed that by that time some disposition will be made of the case. When the receiv ership of Mr. Cates is made perma nent, it it become necessary, nis powers will be enlarged, so as to em power him to mase ol the property whatever disposition he may desire to make. It is understood steps are now taking to get the matter into shape. The situation is a peculiar one. The Loss company seems to have paid nothing worth mentioning since they came to the citv. A new bill came in today for $3,200 from a scraper company at Aurora, 111. Another came in" for $400, and it transpires that the company had never paid its rent, its little telegraph bills or its telephone bills. So far as is known no steps have been taken to make matters right. They have a number of attorneys here, but what is being done is unknown. Ihey seem desirous of postponement of the confirmation of the receiver's appointment, but their intentions beyond that point are unfathomable to the parties interested. The total indebtednees known, up to date, is over $53,000. It is understood that all these claims will eventually be paid by parties who are connected with the C. E. Loss company, and who are anxious to keep their own personal credit clean. Jell-O, The New Dessert, pleases all the family. Four flavors Lemon, orange, raspberry and strawberry.

the TRADE REVIEW GwilCon Kairj.j .Vo: withstanding Koprew.iv? InfluenceNew York, Oct. 13. ISradstreet's trade review today says: ThuUgb some measures of business volume and value make unfavorable comparison with a year a.-ro, and sjteculuiion la certainly on a reduced scale in nearly all lines, other registers of trade activity are still very favorable, and it is hard to resist the conclusion that. with few notable exception the ac tual business of the country is as a rule, equal to, if not slightly In excess of the corresponding period of lf9. This, too. Is the case in spite of the distinctly repressive tendency exercised by the present presidential campaign. I'rlces of staples as a whole are firm, after a sustained ad vance for a month past. sueeetHllug a summer of quiet steadiness ati the unhealthlness of the short side In speculation has been brought for cibly to the attention of dealers In a number of staples, notably hog pro ducts and flax seed.

WILL THEY END IT?

Doubt Is Expressed IerrdThe Force of 311ners' Convention. AN UN WEI LI) Y BODY Question of Proreedare Is Cansinj the Ifc'lcsrates to Scran ton Convention Some Uneasiness, Movement to Submit Propositions to a Committee to Report ! liatk. Scranton, Pa., Oct. 13. Kisht hundred and fifty-seven miners who hold in their ha inl.-; the iiower to end or coutinue the anthracite coal miners strike, which lias beeu in progress for more than three weeks, are in conven tion here for the purpose of consider ing the 10 per cent, net advance in wasres offered by the operators. Yesterday's session ailourued without tak ing any action on their employers' proposition. ' Koth of the sessions of ihe day were devoted to organization of the c;uven:ionand speeehuiaking iy Helena re. It Was not expected M at in !tI:T would be done the first day, uuit-jli- oi a jwieral exchange of views. The coiivcmiuii after it wis ptrnuuietly orfTunbw! w.nt into secret ries.sicii. hut it Svas learned from auil.oriutiive snurvcs that nothing of a dctiuUe nai'ire was suggested which could li ad l a soltirii ii of what is, to the miners, a knotty problem. Prom the trend of the remarks of the delegates it was gathered that the lo per cint. pnipositiou as it now stands, has very little chance of Indng accepted. The delegates tseetuod, it was learned, to he almost uuauimous that the oierators would tirst make concessions in the other grievances lief ore the Increase is accepted by the mine workers. Stress was laid on the necessity of abolishing the sliding scale and substituting therefor a tonnage basis ou which to fix the rate of wages. The proposition of having the operators guarautee a fixed tirae for paying the advance was also thoroughly discussed while not a few delegates said they would be satisfied with nothing but a more lilieral increase in wages. The mode of proceedure is a matter which Is now occupying the attention of the labor loaders. In case the convention comes to a definite understanding on some proposition the question ha been asked how the operators will fle advised. In view of the fact that. the latter have rejK'atedly said they would not recognize the union. President Mitchell will not discuss that phase of the question and none of the; other labor leaders will venture an opinion. That the present convention will not come to a definite conclusion l.the general opinion now. It is Uu gaj' Idn f in, jMl li ad ina tlto - cuuveuiiuu us at preaaeui !outitutrd Is a little unwelUly. There Is a movement on foot having for its object the submission of the various propositions as they are sug gested by the delegates to a commit tee appointed by the convention for consideration, this committee to rejMirt to either this or a second eon vent ion. This movement, however, doe not gain much of a start. Some of the delegates think that the whole subject should be left in tle hands of the national officers as hinted at bv President Mitchell, who is presiding over the convention. Watched With Interest. Wilkesbarre. Pa.. Oct. 13. The op erators of the Wyoming valley are watching with interest the proceedings of the Scranton convention. The rep resentatives of big coal companies here still insist that no further con cessions would le made to the men and that if the offer of 10 per cent, in crease is rejected tlie strike is destined to go on. The offer of the op erators having been refused the companies will endeavor to operate their mine with new men. Should the strikers interfere then the state will le called upon to protect the men who lire willing to work. Half of It Was Missing. New York. Oct. 13.
