ktory : "A few days ao a pLenotnenoo oi
a very singular nature ccorred at U
reaidenoe of Mr. Veeder, at No. S7 Albany
street.; 31 rs. Veeder, at tta time, was
engaged at her boesebold dnties, and all
of a sadden she m astoniabed and co-f-Taoded,
according to ber etatement, by
what seemed to bo a fiaab 'A lbt that
filed tbe room f-r a moment with a
briiliaat illumioatiou. She was so over
come by the strange occurrence that sfce
screamed at first, but the light having
disappeared, she regained ber eompwef
when to ber still greater astonishment,
happening to cast ber eyes towards tbe
ceiling of the kitchen, where she was at tbe
time, she saw tbe mark ot a child's foot
on tbe wall overhead. Sbe stood a mo
ment contemplating the object on the ceil
ing, which soon appeared in fall, being the
print of a child's fot, corresponding exact
ly to the other one. Sbe became alarmed
and rushed from the room. Proceeding, to
a neighbors sbe called in another woman,
and both watched the carious affair. Soon
after other footprints developed themselves
on the wall, when another lady was called
in, but tbe footprints continued to multi
ply. Tbis crrioos development went on
until the ceiling of tbe kitchen was almost
covered with these tracks, erxwiBg tbe
wall in different lines of direction, and
soon after similar marks were seen ia quite
a number on tbe ceiling of an adjoining
bedroom. The maiks.in both rooms were
all of a child's foot, and were all of the
sants s:. w and precisely alike in all re?pect3
Tbe ceiling, like all ethers at tbis time of
the year, is more or le colored, and the
marks on the wall look Lie whi:e rpots oi
tbe foot shape, TLe marks are still on the

It is well for the public to bear t-i mind
that, if a strike shall finally be inaugurated
here, tbe corporations, and not the men,
must shoulder the responsibility. The
cause of a suspension, if there be one, will
be the reduction of wages by the employ
ers. This reduction of wages, at the same
time that the price of coal was increased,
was an outrage on both workmen and con
sumers, and exhibited the arrogance and
greed of those who prescribe terms to the
public, because by reason of a gigantic
conspiracy, tbey have it in U.ir power to
force a compliance. At the time of the
long strike of lcGd and lTO, when the
I)iaar. Lackawanna and Western sold
their coal at auction, their contracts coc
tained the proviso that iu case of strike,
or mpeniHis, they were not to be corn
ptl'.ed to deliver the coa.1 sold. One of the
partiee who bought c 1 the month before
the susjension. acd failed to receive it,
sued the company fr damages and recov-
cred ; the cart holding that the company
it-elf caused the suspension by reducing
the wages of the men, and could not, tbere
f r.e, set up this defence in an acti.n fet
the non-fuT5"ment of its contrasts. At
that time coal was low, and there xas,
perhaps, some excuse f r a moderate re
duction i f wAges, though not avs much as
was made ; wLcn the btte reduction was
made, there was no excuse at all. If, five
years ago, the companies were responsible
for a suinsi-o of work, caused by a re
duction in wages, they would be doubly so
now, because the late redaction Las been
wholly without juMificatiuu or excuse.
The business men of this section, whose
interests so largely depend on steady work
and the prosperity of the wokii!grTen.
will know where to place the responsibility
fchould a suspension occur. krar,i-n Dai

A n.r.rcT.H: Cp.tmf.. A terrib'e crime
was committed in Philadelphia on Wednes
day night of last week. Lewis II. Love, a
teamster cuapl' ycd at the Baldwin locomo
tive n orks and living at 1G-J7 Afton street,
came home about 6 o'clock and inquired
of his step son Willie, aged 14. where the
boy's mother and his own wife was. On
beiriff informed that she had gone to see
her brother, he immediately started away,
and about 8 o'clock returned with her.
All three then sat down to supper, and dar
ing the repaet the husband and wife kept
up a continual quarrel. About ten o'clock
they retired, Mr. and Mrs. Loye to the
front room and the boy to tbe adjoining
apartment, where bis mother soon joined
him. He went to sleep and was awakened
by beating his father strike his mother,
and seeing him afterwards cut his throat.
Tbe lad crawled ont of bed and gave the
alarm, which causetfjjthe police to go to the
house, where tbey found tbe lifeless body
of Mrs- Loye lying, hei throat cut frora ear
to ear, ber head only held on by the spinal
column. She was also stabbed in the
heart, which of itself was qnite sufficient
to produce death. The woman was of
rather prepossessing appearance.
Near by was the bus-band, who after
killing bis wife, determined to take bis own
life by cutting bis throat. As he lay the
blood spurted from bis wounds, and tbe
miserable man groaned as though suffering
intense pain. Physicians found that the
wind pipe had been severed, but tLat tLe
wound was not r-ecosarily fatal. The au
thorities of the almshouse were notified
and the murderer was removed to that in
stitution, where be died next day.
The lad states that bis father and mother
frequently quarreled, and it was asserted
with a degree of positiveness, that the
whole trouble was occasioned from jealousy
on the part of Loye.
