gajnlma JT itf num. EBKNSBURB, CAMBRIA CO., PA., FRIDAY, - JANUARY Tl, 18. The Woonsocket mHchiae and pres? company has announced a reduction in the runniDK time of itsfactory there to 32 hours per wek, thinning Monday. Tbis will be acconipanied by a reduction of 10 per ten', in wage . The action cauwd great surprise, as the plant had been running night and day for the past 16 months. Four hundred people are affected. The commissioners of Allegheny county have elected Fredrick V. Pat terson county engineer at a salary of f 3,000 pei'ear. The office will be an i i) porta nt one. Thf re is now in the coun ty treasury about $250,000 available for improvement of roads, and it is de signed to be ready to commence work nrxiot the opening of spring oo some of the main roads in that county. Senator Chanui.es has again 6tirred up the machine in the Republican party by saying that the party dare not ignore the demand for silver as expressed in the election; he holds that the party is under pledge to compromise or a ljust the question in some wsy and that Mc. Kinley is, by his own words, pledged to co-operate. That Chandler should ad vocate this doctrine as orthodox while it is denounced by the machiae as heresy, is interesting as marking a possible line of division :n the party. The Harrow Trust, a combination among the makers of the various styles of patented spring-tooth harrows, has been dec'ared an unlawful enterprise in a decision by Judge Acheson, in the United States District Court. The ob ject of the trust was to fix a common price for harrow?, and thus to do away with competition. Once in a while the courts manage to lay restraining hands upon some of the aggregations banded together to prey upon the farmers; but, unhappily, they have no power to deal with the worst of them the party that contrives statues under cover of which the trusts are hatched and shel tered. The prosperity that was promised as contingent upon McKinley's election.is in evidence among the shoeworkers of New England by a general reduction of wages commenced immediately after election. In Lynn the reductions weie in some rases as high as SO per cent. That's a 70-cent dollar for those wage workers, sure. In other places the fac tories that said they didn't know when they would open if Bryan was elected don't know now. In North Adams the er places. In Lynn the firms which have staikes on hand refuse to submit the matter of a reduction in wages to the state board of arbitration for settle ment and have so notified the board. A New England tariff monger an peared before the committee on ways and means the other day to plead for more protection to American machine ry. The exports of American machine ry, in the first ten months of 1S5G amounted in value to I IS, 728, 493. Of this machinery the value of nearly $ 10.- 000,000 was exported to England France ana l.ermany and other parts of Europe la the same period the imports of ma chinery into the United States amount ed in yalue to 2,81G,72y, much of which was machinery for the manufac tare of fine woolen fabrics, under the influence of free wool. It is evident that the manufacturers of machinery in : England, France, and Germany have much more need of protection of the Lnited btates than the machinerv man ufacturers of the United States have joi protection from them. But tariff-mongering greed, like all oth er greed, has no reason. R. G. Dcsr & Co's Wetkly Hetiew of rr - , t rmie, 6ays: lhe greatest trrowth and iprosperity the country had ever seen came suddenly in 1S7, after several months of disappointment, because spe cie resumption had not vet hrnncrhi k benefits expected. It is not the largest nu most powerful vessel that can be started most quickly, and it takes time tor new confidence to reach through easy money markets, larger orders, resuming mills, expanding employment and larger distribution to the results which make still larger and lasting gain possi ble. Such gradual and steady improve ment has been in progress for more than two months. The output of pig iron has gained 12 3 per cent, in Decembar and 41. 6 percent, since October 1. The output of coke has increased 8S.7 per cent, since October 1. Sales of l have again become large, though not miiy reported. Money markets felt a steady increase in demand for commer cial and manufacturing loans. Addi tional works have gone into operation each week in January aud the working force is larger than at any other time for six months. It is not a time of high prices. Many who are anxious tn early hold on the market are making ior me moment lower prices than they could afiord to maintain. Some have seenred orders enough for months to come and begin to be less keen in com petition. "Failures for the week have been 445 in the United States against 305 last year and 71 in Canada against 81 last year. The aggiegate of gross earnings of all railroads in the United States re porting for the firof n-L- T 14.115,012, a loss of 4. 9 per eent. com pared with the corresponding week last year. For December more complete re turns for the month show gross earn tng8 Of $33,580,912 for United States foadfl, a loss of 2. 3 per cent, compared Vith December, lfc95, and 8. 3 per cent. Crnpral with December, 1892." It is contended by many thoughtful and intelligent men, sya the Philadel phia Record, that if United States sena tors should Ik? ihrsn by popular vr.te instead of by IegisHiive seiei tion tlier woul'l resul a grent improvement in the qua ity of liie meinlerfiip of tie senate. An approach t " popular selection might be m:de if flirty rul s should lie so amended us to MS"eraii th pnrty choice by ballot, tiie result to be accept ed -s governi'ii: the lcgi.Utive choice. The belief ihat men of lanr ability would be chosen at the pol!s rfts upon the assumption the political msinHger? would be cnmpeli.nl as a matter of pre caution to give their support to s'mng aud capable candidates. But this as sumption is hardly borne out by expe rience. Nobody will contend that the capal ility of the judiciary has been im proved by makir.g the judges elective. A still fiirer test might be iustituted by a comparison of the senate as it isacd as it would be if it should be made up of the governors of the several states It may be doubted if the governors would be any improvement upou the senators; and yet the rtai executive fills a most important public 'position, in volving in selection the most careful, in telligent and responsible exercise of the franchise upon f ie p-rt of the voters. The strongest argument against leg islative choice is that it is more open to the assault of corruption than would be possible if the senators should be nominated as the result of a state can vass or voted for directly. But even this may be doubted The use of money in politics ha?s become an abue of such startling proportions that not only the state legislatures but the whole electoral body are subjected to the assault of cor rupt inducement. The recent couUst for the Republican nomination for the senatorship in Penrjg) lvania and the contests in several other 6tates in which senators are to be or have been chosen indicate with what a fury of pursuit the oflice is sought for, and how little scru ple is shown in methods to attain suc cess. The election of State Senator Penrose, says the Han isbnrg Patriot, to succeed United States Senator Cameron was eas 1 accomplished yesterday. The real in terest closed a forthight ago. To-day the joint convention will formally certi. fy yesterday's. action. We suppose very few of the members who voted for Mr. Penrose yesterday realize the enormity of their offense. It is a fact that this elate was never lefore compelled to suffer a greater public degradation. Mr. Penrose was chosen not because of his towering ability, his extraorditary experience nor his exten sive popularity. From no part of the s ate tejame a sincere call for him. He was made senato rsolely because Senator Quay wants his social companionship and his political mediocrity with him at Washington. It is well understood that Senator Penrose will bring no credit to those who elected him. It is well known that his party must suffer in public estima tion because of bis advancement. It has been plainly agreed that nothing is to be expected of him and that nothing will come. lie is to be the double of Senator Quay at the national capital, treading the routine paths, doing noth ing unbidden nor forbidden by Mr Quay, accomplishing nothing for his state without measuring its uses to Mr. Quay, subverting every ptrhlic interest to selfish ends, chttkitg so far as he may every public measure until toiled for the benefit of the Quay mill. The condition is an unhappy one. It is a demoralizing situation. The legis lators should spend the period of their adjournment in sackcloth and ashes. Secretary Edge, of the state Depart ment of Agriculture, makes the valua ble suggestion that the country roads, of the state be classified into state, bottom fiuishers join the strikers in oth county and township roads, and that the road tax be paid at least one-half in cash. The former suggestion has been copied from New Jersey, w:here it has worked with great success. Iu fact, the classification is that commonly followed in Europe for centuries, and the result is well known to all who have visited the old country. The suggestion should be expanded by the recognition of the du ty the United States has in this respect The grounds for so doing would be large ly that some roads are of a greater pos sible importance as military highways, and quite essential to the common de fense, as well as the general welfare for which the more perfect union was estab lished. Unfortunately there is little hope of the idea being carried out, but some en couragement might well be bestowed by the general government toward those states who act with liberality and intell igence in respect of removing the blot upon American civilization consisting of its scandalous roads. The Illinois Steel company, the larg est corporation of its kind in the world and the heaviest employer of labor in the state of Illinois, has served notice upon is employes that all wages will be reduced February 1. Three months ago the officials of the same company were assuring its work men of uninterrupted work and the maintenance of wages, if McKinley could only be elected. Probably in three months more the spokesmen of the same corporation will ba telling the ways and means commit teemen of the house of Representatives that an increase in the tariff on steel rails and structural steel is absolutely necessary that the dignity of American labor may be maintained and the work ingmen's wages remain at tint high point at which it is, of course, the dear est wish of his employers to keep them. e wonder if by that time or if ever the people will learn what estimate to put upon threats or promises made by millionaire corporations for the further ance of political or mercenary ende? l aeiiitr'ii lit-Her. Washington, January loth, 1897. A new scheme is being hatched by Repub lican senators to enable their party t- contr. I the senate f:er the 4th of March, tht i as darintr and audacious a.- anything ever attempted in tiiis conn ir iii the political line. Tne tir-jt step in thw s.l omo was taken this v.e-k whet. Senator Oi.mdler. who is an adept in trickv politics, offered a p' titi-n ii the sen-tie from Henrv A 1J Pont and eleven mnMrs of the Delaware legisla ture a king that the senate rceonsidi-t the vote whereby it declar-d Mr. D-.i Pt.i.t i t entitled to a seat in the seuate l'his scheme never would have leeu sprung had it not become certain that Democrats would elect a senator to fili the Delaware vacancy. Those who an behind it do not expect to seat Iu I out, but they hoj by getting his claim tie fore the senate again to prevent the seating of the Democrat who will b elected by the present Delaware le s'a ture With one vacancy ia the senate A'i will be a majority, but if that vacan cy is filled by a Democrat, the R-publi cans must nave votes to control wic senate. See? Th-j petition was referred to the committee on privileges and elec tions, which consists of five Republicans a-nd foiir Democrats, but as S nat r Palmer, of Illinois, is one of thebub-r, the Republicans inay te said to have two-thirds of the committee. Senator Vest, who has just returned from a triumphant re-election, rtvivicl the drooping spirits of those who believe that something ought to be done for Cu ba before tnis session of congress closes by declaring his intention to devote his time exclusive to getting something done for Cuba, because he belieyes that to be the mst important question before this congress When 6eoator Vest devotes his exclusive time to anything the coun'ry is pretty certain to hear aboui it S ) look out! Speeches were made this week by Senator Mills and Bacon iu advM-acy of the Mills Cuban resolu tioi, which provides for recognition of Cuban indepenpnoe and the appoint ment of a U S Minister to Cuba At last Speaker Reed has filled the Democratic vacaucies on the house com mittees Representative Kailey, of lex a got the place ou the committee, on uiUs, Representative IJoatner, of ,a.. goes on the committee on ways and means, Representative Stokes of S C on the c mnnittee on agriculture, and Re presentative Crisp, of G., son of the late ex-Speaker, who is known as the boy memlier," was given the vacancy on post office committee. One episode occurred in connection with the Pacific Railroad Funding bill, that was this week .defeated by the house, that in the old days would have resulted in a duel, or icrhaps two. Re presentative Johnson, of Cal., the only member from that state who supported the funding bill, made an unprintable charges against W. R. Hearst, whose New York and San Francisco papers had made a hot fight against the bill. For this he was called a coward by Represen tative Cooper, of Wis , and in addition to being called a coward by Representa tive Magnire, of Cal., Johnson was re minded of his haviug been indicted in Syracuse, X. Y- some years ao, for forgery. This last speech was too much for the house and it was ordered to Ikj struck out of the rocoid. Instead of challenging one or both of the men who had called him a coward, as the old timer would have done, Johnson merely dared them to do it again, outside, in these words: "If either the gentleman from Wisconsin or the gentleman from California thinks I am cowardly, let either repeat to me outside this cham fer what he has sai 1 inside, and his cu riosity will be appeased " Representative D ockery, of Mo , who spent the congressional reoe.s at borne, says: "The samples of prosjierity we have out there are not s-tisfaotory I The advance agent is too far ahead of of his show." There may be a great differences of opinion as to whether Secretary O'ney is a great statesman, notwithstanding the qualified endorsement of him as a statesman and a diplomat by ex-President Harrison, but no senator will deny that be has a great gall. He has set the whole couutry laughing at the sen ate, and the senate has no way to get even with him, except to prevent ratifi cation of the arbitration treaty between the U. S. and Great Britain, which he was instrumental in negotiating and which this week went to the senate. The senate has for many years been sore on the matter of treaties, because of the mysterious manner in which the newspaper men have managed to get hold of copies of them almost as soon as the senate did. Secretary OIney defied the traditions of the senate by "furnish ing a newspaptr correspondent with a copy of the new treaty as soou as it was signed, and after the treaty had been widely published in the newspapers the members of the senate committee on foreign relations made laughing stocks of themselves by wasting time in diccuss ing whether its publication should be authorized. M Tlie IMstress In India. Cumberland. Md., January 17. Mrs. Carrie P. Bruer. of this county, who went to Poosu, India some time ago to take charge of an orphauage, writes back of the famine now raging in India. She states that children come to the or phanage in a wretched condition, hav ing been living on roots, seeds, grass, unground and uncooked grain, in fact anything that they can find to eat. People are dying by the roadside in cen tral and northern India. One boy was taken into the orphanage who was found lyiug beside his dead mother's body. Another, frightfully emaciated, was found on the river bank, the father ly ing in the water where he had fallen on going for a drink, being too weak to rise azain. He said: "I have heie four days pays: never mind me now, but save my boy." The hoy was taken to the orphanage, says Mrs. Bruer, and is now all right. Found DrowDtd. McKeesport. Pa., January 19 S. E. Carothers, proprietor of the National ho tel, was found dead early thisimorning drowned in a shallow well in the base ment of the hotel building. Mr. Car others closed the house at 2.30 o'clock this morning and it was thought he had retired. Grant Ross, tbe bar-keeper discovered his employer's body when he went to the basement this morning, for bar supplies. Various opinions are ex pressed as to how the accident could have happened and among them suicide is suggeested but not credited. Mr. Car others was 52 years f age and one of the city's most prominent, and prosper- uuo uuwus. iie leaves a widow but no children. New York, January 20 Margaret Riley, only 1G years old, has brought suit in the supreme court for a divorce from Elward Riley.

Baltimore, January 1-S The trial 1 1 one of the most remarkable cases in the criminal annals of Maryland was lagui and concluded in tne criminal court t day. The defendant was a woman whi was indicted in the Charles county couit as an accessory to the murder of bei h unhand The most damaging testimo ny against the woman was expected to come from a man who was convicted ot the murder aud on whom the death sen tence hail been passed. In a confession made the day follow ing his conviction and sentence to death for the murder of James J. Irwiu, Ueorgd Matthews declared that he hail been, incited to the C ime by Mrs. Emm Irwin, and together they had planned and executed it. It was believed that his testimony, aloug with circumstan tial evidence from other quartets, might bring the death sentence down on the widow of the mutdtred man. But when Matthe ws was put on the Sland to-day he refused to teetitiy against her or even to 1 sworn in the case. After Matthews had refused to testify the atate c los d its case. The defense did not even eive any evidence and the case was given to the jury without ar gument. Without leaving their seats the jurors fuutid and gave in thiir ver dict of not guilty. Au I'nlire Family 1'nisoiietl. Spring City, pa , January 18 The entire family of Richard Quigg. of Eift Vincent township, near this place, was poisoned last night by eating cabhnge which had been sprinkled with paris green. Besides the father and mother there are four children and the grand mother, and all had eaten heartily of boiled cabbage for supper. Shortly af terward each one was taken suddenly ill with violent pains in the stomach aud liegan vomiting. Word was immediately sent to this : lace, and Dr J. C. Mewhinney hastened to tho Qu'u'g home, where he found the family in a precarious condition. He began administering strong enieties, and lifb-r a wi.ile succeeded in relieving ih"in and getting them out of dan cer. Cie fe. cxi miration of the cabbage by the doctor revealed traces of the paris green which had been sprinkled on it last summer for the insects In the fall the cabbages had been placed in the cel lnr without any effort being made to clean off any of the poison which might still remaiu on them. Fittern Tots Dead. Dallas. January 17. Fifteen little girls and boys are dead as a result of the tire at the Buckner Orphan home, and nine others are seriously burned and crushed. Three of the injured, it is thought, cannot recover. The fullness of the holoe-aust was not discovered and fully realized until last night. The fire which commenced about 10 o'clock Friday night and raged until the boys' dormitory was destroyed, did not cool enough for search for bodies in the ashes until yesterday. At that time it was thought that only five children had lieen burned to death. When the ashes had cooled enough to admit of a search, scores of sympxthizing friends and neighbors began the sad task of finding the bodies of the five whom it was known had perished. The search had hardly lieen instituted when the terrible truth that there were more than five bodies in the ashes ap peared. The search continued until the ruins were fully explored aud 15 bodies had been found. A Bag of Money Missing. New York. January IS A bag con taining $5,1)00 in coin or bills was stolen to-day from a wagon belonging to the Metropolitan Traction Company: The money was taken from the wagon while it was standing in front of the Pacific Bank on Broadivay. Nobody saw the bag disappear, and the only thing the two wagon men could tell the officers of the Metropolitan Traction company, when they returned to the office, was that one bag was missing, and that they were very sory to confess that they did not h-now now or exactly when the money disa ppeared. The street was crowded at the time, and the messengers said they followed the usual custom of passing the bags from the wagon to the bank. Mr. Beat tie said the robbery was unique, and one v muci auuicious ne had ever Known. A Krlroinf I'm tier or "97.
