19. A messenger has arrived here from the scene of the engagement near this place between government troops and revolutionist, bringing news that after seven davs of terrrible fighting 9,000 rebels under Gen. Mendosa. had abandoned the field, having retired from their last positions, six miles from La Victoria, Friday night, retreating In the direction of Vima de Citra. According to President Castro the killed and wounded number 3.000.

During the last days of the fighting the temperature rose to 11G degrees, and a visitor to the scene of the engagement declared he never saw such a terrible spectacle as was the battlefield. The victory of the government troops, which is said to be due to the personal courage of President Castro, who twice with a Mauser rifle In his hand charged at the head of his soldiers, is considered a serious setback for tht. cause of the revolutionists.

ThousandTmrtD second elans In Western foot- HOW DEAL GAME ABOUT Proposed Traffic Arrangement With Union Pacific Is in Abeyance.

PLANS FOR THE FUTURE Other Negotiations of Notable Importance Are Pending in Railroad World. fSecial Tclwam to The Tribune.) NEW YORK, Oct. 19. A good deal has heee-wrltten published recently about the reported negotiations between the St. Paul and Union Pacific with regard to a closer alliance between those roads.

A good deal has been said that was not true. On the other hand, the deal involves features that have been overlooked altogether. The statement was frequently made by a daily newspaper in this city, that these recent negotiations, briefly told, meant a close alliance between the Rockefeller and Harriman syndicates. This is not true. The recent deal Is confined to the limits of a traflic agreement pure and simple, between the St.

Paul jind the Union Pacific and the latter's allied roads. DEAL OF WIDE SCOPE. The negotiations to this end recently consummated in this city, are of much wider scope and far greater importance than is realized. The deal also involves much more than has heretofore been given to the-xmblic. In view-of the importance of the transaction, a brief outline of the events that led up to the formation of this agreement is of special Interest at this time.

Until two years or less ago, Rryswell Miller, chairman of the board of directors of the St. Paul road, was a prominent director of the Union Pacific. He was elected to that board for two First, to represent the Rockefeller and other Standard Oil interests In the Union Pacific, and secondly, to see that the St. Paul was fairly dealt with by the Union Pacific. The latter was no easy task.

For some time Mr. Harriman and his associates had showed a decided tendency to discriminate against the St. Paul In favor of the Chicago Northwestern. MILLER WAS OUTNUMBERED. Mr.

Miller fought strenuously to have an equitable division of traffic between jhis road and the Union Pacific. Of course he was alone and greatly outnumbered by the other mem ben? of the Union Pacific board. Finally Mr. Miller gave up in his efforts in behalf of the St. Paul and resigned from the Union Pacific directorate.

As a consequence, there was not a little ill feeling among tho St. Paul people over the treatment received at the hands of the Union Pacific management. Later a new thorn in the flesh for the St. Paul road developed. The Northern Pacific and Great Northern bought the Burlington road.

Then the St. Paul feared that these two former Hill-Morgan roads would discriminate against it in favor of the Burlington. This, the St. Paul people claim, has been done to some extent ever since the Burlington Continued on I'n-te 2, Fourth Column lle Uoean't Hceiu Able to limine It.

QUIET IN COAL FIELDS Former Employes Want Old Positions Back Here's Where Rub May Come. W1LKESBARRE, Oct. 19. President Mitchell was asked last night what ho knew of tho report cabled to the Manchister Guardian from New York that J. Pierpont Morgan was forced to Intervene in tho coal strike, and in reply ho said: To my personal knowledge Mr.

Morgan has been trying to settle the coal strike ever since he tame back from Europe two months ago. If others had been as fair and reasonable as Mr. Morgan was, the strike would have been settled a long time ago. I know nothing about Mr. Morgana financial Interestst compelling bim to seek a settlement of the strike, but I am Informed that he has keenly felt his responsibility to the public in connection with the fuel famine, and h.is done his best to bring about the end.

Both Mr. Morgan and Mr. Caseatt of the Pennsylvania railroad, were working for a ueulenieiit when President Roosevelt made his last and successful move. Mr. Morgan could not very well be forced to do something which he had been trying to achieve for several weeks.

I make this statement In Justice to Mr. Morgan. We have bad no quarrel with him and we wish none. We do not fear him, hut prefer his friendship if he is w-iUiE? tj give it to us. 1 am creditably informed that ho Is friendly to organized labor.

As an organizer of capital Mr. Morgan concede the right of labor to organize also, aud when labor organl-, miens are fair and copservatlve, ho believes la dealing directly with them for the advantage of both employer and employe. It is this relationship which the United Mine Workers seek in the anthracite field, and we invite Mr. Morgan to co-operate with us in securing a permanent and scientific solution of the labor problem in this region. ENGINE WRECKS SHAFT.

The shaft of the Mount Lookout colliery of tho Temple Coal and Iron company at Wyoming was wrecked yesterday by one of the small 'locomotives used for hauling cotr containing culm. The engineer left the locomotive for a moment and it suddenly started and ran full speed 20 yards to the thaft ai.d plunged down, lodging 320 feet below the Burface at the red ash vein. Fortunately the boiler did not explode, but the big machine In Its fall tore out the lining of the shaft and did other damage that will cause a suspension for a week or more. A few seconds before the accident a cage holding ten men was lowered down the shaft, and they had Just stepped off at the bottom when the locomotive plunged down. Ma).

Gen. Miller, ill command of the nearly lo.wo troops in the field, who has been inspecting the camp in this vicinity, went to Scran ton yesterday. It is probable the homeward movement of the soldiers will begin about the middle of next week. It is costing the state more than $30,000 a day to keep the national guard In the field. SATURDAY IS QUIET.

Yesterday was a quiet day at headquarters and a busy one in the district and sub-district headquarters throughout the entire coal fields, on account of the election of delegates to Monday's convention. All the "locals" have met and selected their representatives to tho Wilkesbarre gathering. There seems to be little doubt that tho convention will accept the offer of arbitration. Reports have been received here, coming principally from the region around Scranton, that there will he considerable opposition to the acceptance of the plan, but these reoorts are not taken seriously at President Mitchell's headquarters. There will bo opposition In the convention, but it is expected to disappear after Mr.

Mitchell explains the proposition to the delegates. WANT OLD PLACES HACK. Probably the most difficult problem which will come before the convention Is the one of old employes securing their old places. Tho companies are quoted as saying they have taken care of all the employes who have stood by them during the strike. Many miners want the convention to withhold acceptance of the arbitration plan until the union is assured that strikers will bo re-employed In their former places.

This will likely cause a long debute, but the officials of the union say the matter will bo fined up satisfactorily to nil concerned. INSIST UPON HAVING OLD POSITIONS BACK SHENANDOAH. Oct. 19. A majority of the local unions of Shenandoah and vicinity have instructed the delegates elected to tho Wllkesbarro convention to vote against calling the strike off, unless assurance Is given that every man who responded to tho call to go oil strike will be given his old position back.

'in the Pennsylvania cane It appears that recently a circular letter was Issued by the Republican state committee, signed S.

AN IDENTICAL LETTER. Jmrm-dlat ly thereafter another circular letter was Issued In Identically the same foiin. except that it bore the signature of the treasurer of the commlt-. tee, who Is not a federal officeholder.

''The commission pointed out the Illegality of this circular because it carried on Its heading the names of Senator Quav and Mr. Andrews, and directed its and this ruling Is now contested by Andrews. ''In the Ohio case, a circular was Issued bv the Republican state executive committee, bearing the names of Hon.

I'urt II, First hall yesterday afternoon on Field, and by defeating Minnesota by a score of 6 to 0 removed the team, at least temporarily, trom the championship race, and sent a bad chill through the 7,000 rooters who covered the bleachers and grandstand about, the fated grid-Iron. The result of the thirl game with the Cornhuskers was a Jolt which will be all the more difficult to recover from because it was so unexpected, aud while it may sound harsh to the average follower of the fortunes of the maroon and gold, it seems lo be the fact, that no matter how it Is figured. Minnesota can not now be considered in the championship race. The game was won fairly and squarely by the best team, having the best people, the best knowledge of the game, the best ability to use it, the better staying qualities.

The single touchdown made was made by straight football, including an end run or two and several smashes at the line. With the exceptions of Davis and Lafans, Dr. Williams brought out upon the field the Dick of the far-famed university squad, and his team played on the home eroundn and had the enthusiastic support of one of the largest crowds ever seen on Northrop Field. THE BEST TEAM WON. But as Coach Booth says, the best team won, and It won because it could tackle better, had better interference, better team work, and as good a defense and as much weight as Minnesota had.

Capt. Westover's men played a steady, safe game in the first half, kicking upon nearly every occasion and keeping the -Minnesota men working their hardest, un til the Gopher Interference and plan of offense was solved. After that It was easy, and during tho second half the play was In Minnesota territory almost entirely, the Nebraska men getting fresher and the Minnesota men groggier as the game dragged slowly on to its bitter end. The Minnesota "ginger" did not appear. For three years the Nebraska team has been trying, through the medium of the Minnesota team, to break Into the "big nine." Two years ago the score stood 23 to 12 In Minnesota's favor, after the Minnesota team had gono down to Lincoln and got a bad scare.

Last year it was 19 lo 0 on Northrop Field, but it was any one's game during the first fifteen minutes, and Nebraska went to Milwaukee some two or three weeks after that and made things very uncomfortable i for Wisconsin. This year the Booth ag gregation came up to wiu, and win they did. THE PRINCETON TANDEM. It wa.s the Princeton tandem with Bender carrying the ball and the revolving wedge on tackle which did the business, and the lono touchdown of the game did not come until the last live minutes of play. Eventually the visiting team made some brilliant end runs and some effective line plunges, but the Princeton tandem was toniethlng the Minnesota men could not stcn.

As for the Minnesota team. Its open Interference was a sieve for ihe Nebraska forwards, and it bad no combination or plfiy which could be relied to land the ball beyond the Nebraska forwards. The play opened with a couple of fumbles aid three blocked kicks, which left the ball In Minnesota's hands well under her goal posts. After (hat, however, Minnesota took a brace and kept the ball in the Cornhusker territory most of the time, although she was repeatedly forced to punt or lose tho bull. In the second half the still fresh Nebraska team started In to do things, and as a result kept the ball well down toward the Minnesota goal posts In spite of the steady wail unl roar from the bleachers to "hold 'em, hold' em." Until the last the bleachers roared out "stone wall, Btone wall," but at the last, when Gray went out for Freeman, the Cornhuskers finally found a way around that stono wall two ways, In fact one around each end.

And then they found two or three ways through It and Bender had scored his touchdown and It was all over with Minnesota. ALL HOPE ABANDONED. Even the exhorting rooters seemed to realize that It was all over with their team when the. touchdown was made, because while some, stayed until the game was called, hoping ngah.dt hope that a tluke or a trick might tie the score, tho great majority of them gave up the battle when Bender scored und left their scnts. It was a crushing blow, that a team from the wilds of Nebraska should ellnilnato from the championship equation tor this year such a flno lot of football material as the Minnesota university possesses.

But, as Coach Booth says: 'The best team won." THE GAME IN DETAIL. The whistle to play was blown at I and Mickel kicked oil oa the (round for 'I it.
