his home in Philadelphia on Saturday
at the atre of ;VJ years. He was an ar

to the state senate in S7I. One ot his
legislative achievements was the enact

Ii sriiv, of New York, introduced in
the House on Tuesday a resolution au
thorizing the appointment of a joint
congressional committee to investigate
the condition and character of all aimor
plate, lolls and others delivered to the
government by the Carnegie company
during the entire period of the contract
l tween the company and the govern

three menders and two senators, and is
to have .wer to send for ersons and

nei"essary.
The "On to Washington!" slogan of
the various gangs of trainr.is throughout
the country is a mere pretense. These
n.m, ho are unemployed, and are glad
of it, are going nowhere in particular;
but ly giving out the impression that
they have pressing business with Con
gress gisthm the right, as they inter
pret it, to steal trains and indulge in a
free ride. It is the bliisnt ss and the
duty of railroad companies to discourage
this soil of thingeven if they are obliged
to provide each train with an armeu es
cort. And the civil authorities every
where should cooperate with them in
doing it. This phase of Populism ha;
gone far enough.
Thk enormity of the armor plate
scandal iucreases with each day's dis
closure. William F. Crown, a Carne
gie workman, in an affidavit sent to the
Navy iK-partment Wednesday, swears
that he ersorially, upon the order of
foreman and superintendents, imposed
upon the government ins(ectors at
Homestead vast numbers of inierfect
lolts and nuts for fastening armor plates
to vessels. He Secities a score of dif
ferent tricks and devices used for this
purjHi-e, and says that once when he
tilled an iniortant order with bolts from
the scrap heap he was personally com
mendtd by the Sur.eriutendent and giv
en a raise of salary.
Jiefore the ordinance P.ureau's board
at Honx-stead Frederick Uuck testified
that by direction of his superiors he had
tanired with the machine used in
testing armor plates, so that it would
register greater than the actual strength
for t-ertaiu marked plates.
A 1-i.oT to assassinate I. I. Ilookheim
er, a guard in the Huntingdon reforma
tory, rtsulted, on Thursday, in the in
stant killing of of Kdward Woods, a
Ph iladelphia prisoner. Woods and a
fellow inmate, Henry Waldron, had
l-eeri reduced to the third grade by
Iiookheimer for misconduct. Then
they resolved to have revenge. Thnrs
day afternoon they eluded the vigilance
of the guards in the tailor shop and
started after iVx.kheinier, who was in
the cell house. They cautiously ap
proached him from the rear, aud, when
within a few feet. Woods sprang forward
and struck Iiookheimer over the head
with an iron bar. The guard dropped
to the ground. A second blow broke
his wrist. At this juncture Iiookheinier
secured a revolver from a a fellow guard,
and, on a second attack from the two
prisoners, shot Woods through the
heart, killing him instantly. Waldron
was seized and penned iu a cell. The
guard was arrested but the coroner's jury
exonerated nirn. It was held that he
did the shooting in self defense. This
was the second attempt at assassination
by these prisoners.
The seizure of coal in transit by the
railroad companies transporting it for
their own nse, says the Pittsburg W,
is one of the novel developments of the
coal miners' strike. The policy of the
railroads in this rifpcc t it is said has
never lrn opposed in the courts, as it
is a supreme necessity, and the coal ta
ken is paid for. It has ln-en sometimes
seized under similar circumstances in
the past, but not to the extent it is now
done. If the railroad compinics carw
not ol.t.iin coal it would l imMssil!e I
for them to move their trains, and not I
only ti e coal trallic but the pa-
and irenera! freight Iiiimiii ?s, as well af
the transportation of mails.

The more the Democrats study the pro
posl amendments to the Wilson tariff
bill, and thecauses which led up to their
adoption by the Milicommittce, the less
they object to them a a whole. When
the amendments were first made public

tests from Deniticralic senators and rep
resentatives, and for a t me it Ii looked as

Wales and .",MMt tons Ir-mi Nova Scotia.
Anothej incident of the coal strike of
a reiiiiti'kahlc character took place in one
of the Maryland mines of the Cumber
land district fin Saturday. The wives,
mothers and (laughters of the men at tin
FJkhxrt minis struck with emphasis and
effect against a sympathetic strike.
When the visiti lg agents of the nation
a! union insi-ted that the Klkhart min
ers should strike to show their sympa
thy with the general movement the
hard working women folks "put their
feet down," and insisted if there was to
lie any "sy in pa thy " in the business it
should begin at home. The Maryland
women went to the mouth of the mine
where the work of ersuasion or intimi
dation was going on and confronted the
walking delegates and liegged them to
let their husbands work. Wlitn their
appeals were disregarded the women
coiirag"usly adopted a more decisive
line of jMilicy. "If," said they to the
strikers, "you compel our husbands to
strike we shall ourselves go down into
the mines and dig Ihe coal." That set
tled it, and the attempt to force a "sym
pathy" strike was abandoned. Thisn
gion was a great sufferer by the strike of
Issj. The coal companies iiiiorted
Hungarians to break a strike at that
time. When a general resumption of
work followed some of them remained
as a disturbing element, aud it took
Klkhart years to regain its tranquility.
A remembrance of this caused the min
ers' wives to take the aggressive as they
did on Saturday. It was a successful
vindication of woman's rights.
Di ss V.VriVw for this week says: The
strikes begin to have a serious though
it is assumed only a temjiorary effect.
The number of works depending tijioii
supplies of bituminous coal or coke for
fuel is large, and juite a considerable
proportion of them has already been
compelled to stop operations. No doubt
the proportion is larger in the iron and
Steel manufacture than iu any other
business, but nearly a third in capacity
of the iron furnaces at work a mouth
ago appear to have closed. Some rail
roads at the West are embarrassed, and
textile works of some importance must
close soon unless the strike ceases. The
movement of so-called armies of unem
ployed in Washington has caused little
excitement, and is less important or
significant than the outward movement
of specie, which shows shrinking foreign
demand for products and further with
drawal of foreign capital. lint neith. r
strikes uor foreign distrust loug retard
the progress of this country.
The speculation in grain has again
broken records with the lowest price ever
made for wheat, although Western re
ceipts area little smaller than a year
ago, w hile exports are also smaller by
more than a quarter. The prevailing
lielief is that the yield will, as in other
recent years, far exceed government in
dications, which are again pointing to a
short crop. Corn has changed in price
but 1 ittle, and pork products have leen
fairly steady, with oil and coffee un
changed, but cotton is weaker in tone,
although receipts from plantations are
a little smaller than a year ago. It is a
striking evidence of the general want of
confidence that there is so little secu
lation while money is abundant almost
beyond precedent.
The Republican papers in their elation
over the many local victories throughout
the state are busy speculating on the
probable extent of their excted victory
this fall. That there could ly any os
sibility Ik? any change in the ilitical at
mosphere during the next six months
does not seem to have occurred to them.
To their da ..led vision nothing is clear.
They cannot see that they owe their
present advantage to an unusual com hi -uationt
of circumstances, misinterpreted
and misunderstood, and not to a change
of public sentiment. They forget that
with changed circumstinces will soou
come renewed faith in the doctrines so
potent in the last presidential campaign.
Congress is bound to pass a tariff bill
and that bill will lie redemption of the
pledge made in that campaign. The
buisness depiession has largely passed
and only awaits settlement of the tariff
question to come w holly at an end.
The pa-sage of a new tariff bill, im

lieen oO.IHMi tons of Knglish and Nova
Scotia coal sold to arrive in New York,
a jiortion of which has already been
shipH-d from Cardiff, Liveriiool and
(ilasgow, and from Sidney, N. S. The
cost is w ithin 4o(. oOc -r tori of the or

of this has been taken by the companies

From this fact it is inferred that the coal
companies intend fighting the strike to

coal from Kngland in unlimited quanli
ties and at competing prices, even by
steam, as very little freight is now com
