The pig Iren manufacturera of tbe l'itla

the Monengabela house In l'lttaburg,and for
mally nelitted tbe coke operators of tbe Con Cen
nellsv ille region that the blast furnaces would
remain Idle until tbe price of coke la reduced
from f 2 teff 1 M per ten. Tbe coke operators
are taken entirely by surprise. Tbe furnace
men argue that they bave been already In
jured a much by tbeatrikeaa la possible. A
majority of them, en account of having no
coke, bave been compelled te bank or blew
their lurnaeeecut.
'We will net resume operation until coke
is reduced," said one, "because tbe condition
of tbe market la auch as will net admit us
doing business except at a less. Tbe pig iron
insrket is dead aa a deer nail, and prices are
en tbe wana Mill Iren 1 new Belling for f 18

coke operator, " I gueas we'fl just withdraw
and permit tbe coke workers and tbe manu
facturers te fight it out if we were forced te
reduce tbe price of coke te f 160 per ten we
can net stlerd te pay the rate et wages against

fire broke 12 In the widely-known
theatre, the Opera Combine, In Paris, during
the performance Wedneadsy night. The
theatre was crowded, and at the first alarm a
rush was made for the exits. The fire spread
wltb great rapidity, and many persons
sprang from the windows te tbe ground te
avoid being caught by the flames only te
meet death by contact with the pavement
Fourteen et the persons wbe threw them
selves from tbe wlndewa were Instantly
killed, and forty-three were picked up mere
or leas Injured, some el tbsm fatally and
many very serleualy. Tbe probability tbata
large number of persons have been crushed
te deatb In tbe galleries and en tbe stair waja
is very great, but tbia Is ss yet uncertain, it
Is, however, almost beyond question that
several occupying seats near the stage were
caught by the tire and burned te deatb.
Little attention was paid te saving tbe build
ing, all effort being directed te rescuing tbe
unfertunste Inmates whose cries filled the
sir.
The fire broke out during the first act of the
enera "Mlanen." One of tbe wings Ignited
from a gaa Jet snd tbe entire stage waa imme
diately enveloped In flames, wblcb s'en
spread te tbe whole house. Madame Mer
gullller and MM. Tasquln and Bernard were
en tbe stage when the tire broke out All
the actors ran out In their stage oeatumea,
Tbe audience get out easily, but tbe gas was
turned oil before all bad left tbe building,
and it Is feared some were left in the upper
tiers. Tbe reef aeen fell In. With tbe ex
ceptlen of Madame Selller, wbe perished in
tbe llatnes, all tbe actors escaped, although
several of tbe supernumeraries were Injured.
Five bodies terribly burned were conveyed
te tbe Nstlenal library. Among them was
the body of a woman clasping a little boy In
ber arms. Tbe money receipts were saved
and deposited In the GuuteU ofllee, Tbe Mil
itary club rendered great assistance in tbe
work of rescuing people from tbe building.
An artificial tire apparatus, whleb had
been placed In position in readiness for tbe
burning of tbe palace In tbe second act, rolled
down from Its place near the root and ex-
fleded below. Women half clad and carry
ng their costumes lied from the stage
screaming. Supers and membeYs of tbe
cheru were terrified. Heme of the latter
lied with nothing but tight. Tbe flamea
apread with auch rapidity that In fifteen
minutes the stage waa a vast furnace.
Several actor escaped by climbing te the
reef of the aide en tbe Rue Marlvanta, where
tbey were rescued by tire escapes. M. Tas
quln implored tbe audience te remain seated
until tbe exits were opened, which they did.
If tbey bad made a rusb ter the doers the less
el Ille would bsve been terrible.
Tbe police outside were unable te restrain
the crowd, wbe besieged the building Inquir
ing for frlenda Inside, until a military cordon
waa formed. One man wbe wanted te rescue
hi brother and sister raved and tore bla hair
and menaced with a stick tbe man wbe res
trained him from rushing into tbe blazing
building. The scene outside waa one et the
wlldeat excitement Falling emhera atruck
heraea In tbe surrounding street, causing
them te plunge and r.ar. Flamea shot out
of every window, forcing the crowd Inte the
narrow streets, where thu crush was terrlllc.
A figurante aaya there were 1.7) persona en
the atage when the fire broke out She heard
the glaaa falling like a hall-storm aud told
the ether girl net te mind It, but while she
wasapeakliigacoliimnef lUmeburat through
the wings with a rear, and all rushed pell
mell from the stage. Mauy ellceman were
Injured.
It la atlll unknown bow many persona
were unable tneszapefreui the deemed build

called attention in the Cham tier of Deputies
te the dangerous condition of the Opera
Cemlque, which waa thn eldest theatre In
Paris. Vdre also called atleutlnn te the
same thing alter the rtcent twelve-hour ben

The audience was delayed a few minute
by dense atneke aud Insulllclent light The
director of tbe .Vefnf, with hla wife and two

Pahis, May 2(1. The icenea at the ruins of
the opera cemlque this morning are most
distressing and heartrending. A strong
military cordon encompass tbe ruins of tbe
burned structure. Outside the cordon are
crowds or excited people crying, wringing
their banda and calling aloud the names of
missing relatlveM or friends. Many bodies
of the ballet-dancers bave already been taken
out. Tbelr remains were round lying in
heaps. Tbe firemen assert that a number el
bodies are lying in the upper galleries. The

VMDBB TBB HBW MUNICIPAL LAW.
Hew Will It Affect tha Lecal Flical Vear and
Appropriations T
Under tbe law governing tbe city of Lan
caster, prier te tbe passage or tbe municipal
bill, the fl'.cal year began en tbe first day of
June. At tbe May meeting of ceuncila the
ordinance appropriating the moneys for the
fiscal year ending Juue 1, 1SSS, was intro
duced, referred te the finance committee and
by tbem reported afllmatively. Tbat ordi
nance comes up for action en next Wednea
dsy evening. In tbe meantime, however,
tbe municipal bill baa become a law and
tbat provides tbat tbe fiscal year shall
begin en the first et January. The
question arises, what will ceuncila de wltb
tbe ordinance new pending? ltlstbeoplnien
or members of councils, wbe have given the
matter some consideration, tbat nothing can
ee uene at me J une meeting but Introduce
new ordinance making appropriations for the
balance of this year, snd in December next
Introduce an ordinance Iippreprlating tbe
puDiie money a for the fiscal year ending
January j, im'.i.
Aa all tbe appropriations for the several
departments will be exhausted en the first of
June, there will be some Inconvenience, for
a lew weeks, as no money can be paid out
until It is regularly appropriated. These
affected financially will be the city em em
peoyes. The next few meetings or councils will no
doubt be busy ones, as It Is required te pass
ordinances te carry into effect tbe previsions
of tbe municipal bill. Among the ordinances
te be considered will be one In reference te
the city controller and bis salary, tbe election
et a city treasurer by tbe people, the elec
tion of a city solicitor for a term et two
years, tbe number of policemen for tbe force
and some ethers. Under the new law the
mayor Is net obliged te appoint constables te
tbe police force, but councils determine the
number, rank and compensation. The new
bill makes it a misdemeanor In office for any
policeman te ask, demand or receive any
ether compensation whatsoever for hla offi
cial service than hi regular salary,
Tbe general Impression Is tbst prevision
will net be made for a water beard at present,
tbat feature of the bill being optional with
council. If souieof the ward politicians,
nowever, nave uieir way mere will be a
water beard te provide place for four et the
geed workers.
Aatotbe lighting department there is no
pmbibillty el anything being done, because
tbe bill euly refers te these cities that own
lightning plana and furnish light te tbe pub
