Dollars Worth, SOVEREIGN'S CASE THROWN OUT. Judge Cox Declares That the Knights of Labor Have No Standing in Court, and Sustains the Legality of the Froposed Bond Issue, WasHIXGTON, Jan. 81. —Two telegrams were received by Secretary Carlisle from New York informing him that subscrip- tions to the amount of £30,000,000 would be made for the 5 per cent, ten year bonds which the secretary is to issue on the 1st of February. The secretary said that he had no doubt that the entire Issue of #50,000,000 would be floated at the fixed price of 117.228 and upwards. Judge Cox, of the supreme court of the District of Columbia, yesterday rendered his decision denying the application of General Master Workman Sovereign and General Secretary McGuire, representing the Knights of Labor, for an injunction to restrain the secretary of the treasury from issuing $50,000,000 gold bonds. The first question, the judge said, that sug- gested itself was what standing had these complainants in court? It was a well known principle of law that in cases of this character the complainants must show that the alleged illegal act would, if carried into execution, injuriously affect their property rights. He did not think that this had been shown. The allegation was made in the bill that the Knights of Labor had a membership of over 800,000, and that the issue of the bonds would incur a public indebtedness of about $5,000 000, or £1 for each inhabi- tant of the country. This, the judge said, could only happen in case of a per capita or poll tax, and there is now in force no law of that character or any other levy- ing a direct tax for the payment of public indebtedness. Neither had their been since 1861. The complainants had not shown that they would be taxed to pay the bonds on maturity, and therefore as tax pavers they had no proper standing in court. The interest each one of the 65.000, - 000 people in the country had in any pub- lic debt was too infinitesimal to be seri- ously considered by any court The point that the Knights had a special and peculiar interest in this case by rea son of the fact that a very large number of them were engaged in mining, in the opinion of the judge was not well taken It was not even shown that they were | mine owners, but only laborers. It would be just as competent for a number of factory hands to come to Washington and seek to prevent by legal process a tarifl bill from being put into effect because of some provision inimical to their interests In his opinion there was no merit in the allegation that the proposed act secretary discrimination silver, and which the Kuights of Lal liar and particular right their association indicated that it wy organization of laborers, and not ev mine owners.

A wave of anarchy, in whose train followed bloodshed, arson and the destruction of property. passed over the Mansfield coal region Baturday. It began at dawn, and at dusk it wos esti- mated that £100,000 worth of property had been destroyed. Made wild by financial grievances and liquor an mob of several hundred foreigners, Hungarians, Slavs, Italians and Frenchmen swept over the country surrounding Mansfleld and through the valleys of Tom's and Paint. er's run. They attacked mine owners, miners and the few seattered deputy sher- iffs, burned tipples, wrecked cars and de- stroyed railroad property. The working miners were put to flight, and in one in- stance a man was robbed of his clothes and thrown in a creek. Until noon the mob met hardly any re- sistance. When they reached the mines of the Begding Dros, near Federal, on whe Pittsburg, Chartiers and Youghio gheny railroad, the rioters met deter. mined resistance and were checked. With repeating Winchester rifles in their hands Thomas, William and Harry Beadling stood their ground and opened fire upon the mob as it advanced. They fired four volleys in quick succession, killing one and injuring a half dozen others. The man killed was Frank Stepitz, a French- man, After the fourth volley the rioters turned and fled precipitately down the hill. At this moment a train bearing Sheriff Richards and forty deputies pulled into Beadling, and the officers quickly alighting, started in pursuit of the rioters, firing as they ran. The chase was on long one, but finally sixteen wore overtaken and captured. There are strong reasons for believing that the anarchists hereabouts are re sponsible for the disaster. Itis known that the bulk came from Bower Hill, and upon the authority of Rey Wertz, pastor of St, Father Jacob Joseph's German at Mansfield, there are at least 100 families on Bower Hill who openly avow anarchism Father Wertz said further that they had a secret organization opposed to American law, but none but members could secure admittance, or learn anything of the pro ceedings P1 81.~It is the Allegheny short work of the Mansfield coal rioters The were given hearings ISBURG, Jan the intention county region thirty-nine sid ad Jull on charge of unlawful assembly latter true found It is possible the bills were led in court this week and ugh An Engineer's Awful Death, 's New Congressmen. the p i Fourteenth { didate (FE x i guoe iz to Willi Khedive Yiel The ¢ more to the dictatio Virginia's New Congressman, x Jan A was held in the Sevent! trict Colonel vesterdna ()' Ferrall The the sentatives re but 1 n 1 was elected by a good majority over He Republican irner Ie weratic lid A Policeman Slashed by a Barglar, BUFFALO, Patrolman discovered a tough looking fellow trying to elimb into a window, and to arrest him the prisoner drew a razor and cut a gash in Hunter's cheek five inches long, nearly severing his nose.
