HAZLETON. Aug. United Mine Workers' convention opened here this morning with President Mitchell In the chair. No definite programme for the convention has as yet been prepared. Developments may or may not dbturb the labor world; it all depends on the trend of dlscueslon as it takes place in the convention hall.

The importance' of the gathering none the less apparent. Never In the history of coalmining have the men worked so stesdlly as they have this summer. For the first half of the year ending July J1 here were mined 31,219.127 tons of coal, aa compared with 26,278,596 tons for the corresponding period in 1900. The strike of the miners in September of last year must be taken into account, but even with that reckoning the output ta over two million greater than in other years. These figures, to the thinking miner, are strong evidences that the companies are stocking coal In large quantities.

During the past eight months this question of restriction of the output has been the subject of much discussion at ail of the district conventions, and it ta thought that the convention this week will take some action On the perplexing question This morning President Mitchell stated that the situation in the anthracite region had assumed a phase such as it never had before. The Inference was that the convention is to create new conditions and Introduce new propositions for capital to consider. MEYERSDALE, Aug. 27. The miners of the Continental Coal Company in this field, who struck against, a five-cent reduction last Monday, went to work yesterday the 55 cent rate, the price they a received prior, to the strike, The operators will be asked'to sign the scale of the region to pay the price until April, 1992.

Atterbury waa in town to-day after a two weeks vacation spent In the mountains. He was looking good and did not want to talk politics. He refused absolutely to discuss the mayoralty situation, and in regard to the ll'tle disturbance In his own section said that be did not know what had been going on while he waa away. When informed that his opponents had endorsed Seth Lon at a meeting last week, he stated that he supposed they were trying to be first in line with popular sentiment. A number of political leaders, who are supposed to have the situation, so far as kings County is concerned, pretty well In view, but who refused to be quoted, expressed themselves of the opinion this morning that Brooklyn would go to the City Convention aa a solid delegation for Seth Low.

There Is a very general feeling for Low among Republicans in the organization, and he Is believed to be the choice of the party leaders. So far as Controller Colei's attitude ta concerned, it ta generally thought among Democrats that he will now seek nothing but the regular Democratic nomination. The Brooklyn Germans, especially those who constitute the -German-Amer-ican Municipal League, are not particularly delighted with the action of the German-Amerlcan Union at its meeting last night when five names, excluding Low and Coier, were suggested as eligible for the Mayoralty nomination. At the meeting of the Municipal League tonight the resolution carried at last night's meeting will Le offered far adoption, and it is said by influential Germans' that an effort will be made by members of the Municipal League to have the name of Seth Low added to the list prepared by the Manhattanites, aa among tliose who tbe Germs n-A pi Orleans will support. The Germans In Brooklyn belhwo that Mr.

Is taking the German question, so far as the coming election is concerned, entirely Into his own hands, and to-night'a meeting promises to bring forth some pointed expressions of opinion on the subject. AFTER SHARKEY'S JOB. Robert Sharkey, of the Sixteenth Assembly District, is said to have a rival who Is seeking the appointment as Naval Officer. Mr. Sharkey's term expired on the 19th of last month, and since that time he has been filling the position pending reappointment by President McKinley.

The way was thought to he very smooth until Andrew B. Jacobs, of tbe First Assembly District, loomed np. and now it looks like a little race, although Sharkeys friends are not greatly disturbed over the matter. Mr. Jacobs is a resident of the only election district of the Sixth ward district which is a part of tbe First Assembly District.

WOODRUFF IN MANHATTAN. Lieut-Gov. who went to his camp in the Adirondarks last week, is stopping at the Waldorf-Astoria, in Manhattan. He will not come to Brooklyn this week, excepting probably Thursday evening when It ta understood that a session of the Republican Executive Committee of Kings County will be held at a place not made public. DEMOCRATS RETICENT.

There seems to be no disposition on the part of local Democrata who are in town to discuss the possibility of Mc-Lnughllh opposing Tamamny Halt Any reference to the matter ta smiled at by the knowing ones. It la, however, believed that there may be a disposition on the part of the Democratic leaders of Kings County to threaten Tammany in its time of dire distress in order to make Croker feel the necessity of a solid backing from this section, and therefore agree that certain patronage which the Democrata of Kings think they art entitled to shall remain here and a Uttle of that which has been taken away, returned. 1 A threat of that kind from McLaughlin, it is thought, might compel Tammany to nominate Coier In the City Convention, whlrh would no doubt be very pleasing to the regulars in Brooklyn. McGUIXNESS WILL SPEAK. John J.

McGuinness, of the Register's office, will address the eekly meeting of the Ninth Assembly District Republican Club to-morrow evening, at Ita headquarters; 159 Huntington street. WITH ESS FIFE, KOKOMO, Ind Ang. 27. Mr. Lottie Hollingsworth, who viciously assaulted George W.

Thirteen patrolmen and two precinct detectives were up on charges before Deputy Commissioner York to-day made against them by Sergeant Nelson, who waa acting captain of the Gates avenue police station dunng CapL Buchanan's absence on his racation. Tbe charge against each, man waa failing to discover a burglary which occurred some time between Aug- 10 and Ang. 17. at 519 Madison street. Lawyer Malcolm Kerr, the occupant of the house, left hts premises vacant on Aug.

10 and notified the police. When he returned on Aug. 17 he found that his house had been entered through tbe cellar and some silverware carried off. The Iron grating over the cellarway waa broken open yet not one of the patrolmen noticed it. A man bau been seen coming out of the cellar by a woman living opposite the house at 3 o'clock on the morning of Aug.

14. She did not say anythlhg about it until after Mr. Kerr came home. Mr. York made a little speech on this case to-day.

in which he reiterated his former statement to a Standard Union man that burglaries were of very rare occurrence, and took occasion to say also that officers who could not discover burg lanes were unfit to be on the farce. The precinct detectives, he thought, were mainly to blame in this case. He reserved his decision. Patrolman Cornelius F. Boyle, of the Butler street station, was accused by Elisabeth Daggett of striking her in the face without any reason.

Decision waa reserved in this case. Patrolman James McAuley, of the Borough Hail precinct, was accused by Mrs. Minnie Krief, of 1302 Putnam avenue, of striking her In the mouth and knocking three teeth ont on Ang. 1 The woman's teeth are out. McAuley denied the charge and asked for a postponement, which was granted.

Officer Jonas D. Grant, who has been atached to the Health Office squad for 17 years and has been on the force 36 years, was charged to-day by Mrs. Kate McGuinness. of 132 Eagle street, with as-Faulting her. The facta brought out are that Grant waa eent to investigate a complaint sent to the Health Department about the sanitary condition of the house.

When he got there Mrs. McGuinness tried to prevent his coming in. because tin was undressed. Grant got his foot between the door Jam and forced his way in. Mrs McGuinness says Grant treated her roughly and struck her little hoy.

Grant rays he only poshed the door In. and Would not have done so he bad knowm the woman's condition. She had only been confined a few day. He denied striking the hoy or nsine Mrs. McGnln-ness roughly.

Decision reserved. Patro man F. J. Lck, of atbu-h. waa fined five days' pay far being found In a saloon, and Patrolman Robert Parks, of the Finishing avenue station, was mulct-e dthe same amount for being off poet two hours.

1L SELECTS COUNSEL WASHINGTON. Aug. 27. It is reported at the Navy Department that Admiral Sampson has determined that It will be necessary for him to be represented by counsel at tile Schley Court of Inquiry, and that he has selected W. H.

Stayton, of New York, to act in that capacity. No definite confirmation of the report can be obtained here, but it is believed to be correct.
