A BADICAL DIFFEBEHCE.
The contest over wages which our local
reports show to be impending at the Home
stead Steel Works is a singular illustration
of the radical divergence of views which
can exist between the the different interests.
A good many such, differences have caused
lone and costly strikes; but there have been
few which started out with such a wide gap
as the 30 to 50 per cent advance asked by
the men, and the equally decided reduction
announced by the firm.
It is hardly possible to avoid the infer
ence, where there is such a discrepancy in
the first proposals, that one side or the other
has committed the error of making exor
bitant demands in order to gain leeway for
liberal concessions. Ko intelligent knowl
edge of the steel market can permit such
radical differences, as are here disclosed. It
is not the province of the press to adjudicate
the rights and wrongs of such a dispute. It
can only point out the inevitable loss and
danger that must follow such differences if
they are pushed to the result of a strike.
Perhaps it is just as well that such a
striking divergence, as in this case, shall
come up occasionally in order to show the
absence of the necessary influences for the
prompt end equitable settlement of wages.
When in place of fl in wages by the present
scale, the men ask $1 CO and the firm offers
50 cents, the wide discrepancy implies the
absence of the force which should maintain
wages on an equitable basis.
What the exact lack is and how it can be
supplied forms the problem of the age.
With regard to the present case, we can
only say that it shows the need of some
equitable method of settling wages, and
hope that the method may be found before
the present difference produces a long and
disastrous strike.
A HEALTHY SIGH.
The remark of a railroad official reported
in a Chicago telegram, with reference to the
abolition of differential rates, that it is im
possible to permit a system of differential
rates without a pool to regulate it, tells a
part of the truth, but not the whole of- it.
The differential rates cannot be maintained
without a pool, and-would never -have been
dreamed of except in connection with a
pooT.
""The differential as applied in this era is
to permit the roundabout roads to carry
freight cheaper than the direct ones. The
device of authorizing those roads, which can
least afford to carry cheaply, to do so in or
der that those which can best afford to carry
cheaply shall not do so, is an outgrowth of
the system of pooling. It is never heard of
except in connection with combinations to
prevent competition from fixing rates, and
to nullify the healthy principle of having
industrial services performed by the agen
cies best fitted to do them, because they do
them the cheapest.
Therefore, the abolition of differentials is
a healthy sign that the prohibition of pools
is doing its work. The roads which can af
ford to do the work at the least prices are
likely to do it, when the anomaly produced
by pooling disappears.
A HOTEL AFPLICATIOH.
A striking example of the early spring
madness of partisanship may be found in
the reference of the Iionisville Courier
Journal to the defeat of the ballot reform
bill in New "York, as: "The veto of the Sax
ton bill, which would have made it impossi
ble for Mr. Quay to carry the electoral vote
of "New York in 1892." This way of looking
at things implies a very novel vie1 of pol
itics. It indicates a belief that the Repub
lican "Legislature which passed the bill de-j
sired to defeat the Republican candidate iu
1892. It also implies that the Democratic
Governor of New York who vetoed the bill
wishes to stand in with Senator Quay in the
next Presidental election. Probably the
esteemed Courier-Journal thinks that
Cleveland will be the next candidate and
that Governor Hill desires to defeat him:
but still it is a decidedly unique view to I
represent the Democratic Governor of New
"York as acting in the interests of our own
Matthew Stanley Quay. When tie poli
ticians of one party get to doing exactly
what their enemies would wish them to do
it is a novel application of the golden rule
in politics.
CUTTING THETfi OWH TH&OATS.
The natural result of the agitation which
has been most successful in the cattle raising
States, against dressed beef, is apparent in
the fact that "English journals are pointing
to it as an argument for excluding Ameri
can beef from their country. 01 course the
'English interest that will use this argu
ment most freely, will he financially bene-
lid by the exclusion; bet when they ea
-saint to the ex&siBte of ca4le rats-ise States
?as!rliiig to permit the sale of dressed
beef, it fi hard -to see how the. supporters
of American beef abroad can find a prac
tical reply to it.
The possibility of shutting off the export
of beef and cattle may show the cattle
growing interest how the measure into
which they hare been misled will cat their
own throats. The exports oi beef products
last year were 274,000,000 pounds, equal to
about 350,000 cattle. The exports of lire
cattle were 140,000. Here we have a total
exportation of nearly half o, million cattle
at the value of $30,000,000. Supposing this
outlet to be cut off is it not clear that the
results must be disastrous to the cattle-raising
interests of the whole country?
The act of the Western interests in
famishing the weapon that can thus be
turned against themselres is all the more
foolish because the measure that would hare
secured the legitimate purposes had been
urged before the country. State legislation
to co-operate with the federal inspection
law for guarding the health of beef prop
ducts for inter-State and export trade would
have placed American beef above reproach.
Similar legislation against trusts and com
binations would have prevented undue
control ot the live stock trade. Both meas
ures together would have added to the pros
terity of the cattle growers, cheapened the
price and guaranteed the quality of meat,
and enlarged instead of restricted the
commerce of the country.
But the cattle growing interests have in
stead been led into serving the puiposes of
those who are anxious to maintain the high
prices of food. How much it will cost them
before they discover and correct their mis
take it is hard to estimate.
HOT A DAHGEB0TJS HaBKET.
The immensity of the recent strides of im
provement in Pittsburg real estate has
caused a few timid persons to note with ap
prehension the occasional reappearance of
the brass band and free lunch feature which
was quite the order of the day in 1673. But
nothing of that sort has yet occnrred'here
in the present revival on a scale to warrant
even the slightest shadow of apprehension. '
J ,Br lue "rgesi volume ui transacuuus w
real estate at present is in improved property.
Persons have bought houses to live in them;
and others have bought sites to build houses
upon. Thus it is an actual present demand
which, so far, has been catered to. The fact
that few houses anywhere in the city remain
unsold or unrented is the best evidence that
the movement in,, that respect is not ahead
of the times or of actual requirements.
- As for indiscriminate speculation, there
is as yet but little, if anything, of it.
Enough people are still living with vivid
remembrance of the events in the early '70's
to check the folly of baseless booms or
dreams of enhancement springing solely
.from mere maps and recorded plans or from
a too fervid imagination.
There is not yet any advancement to
speak of in values of Pittsburg real estate,
or in the local demand for property, that is
not a fair outgrowth of population and busi
ness. Buyers, in nine cases out of ten, if
not indeed in still larger proportion, seem
to have actual needs for what they buy.
There is evidence, also, that they are con
sulting their pocketbooks and their pros
pects with close discernment. That is not
the sort of activity in the real estate market
which characterizes dangerous speculation.
On the contrary, quite the reverse.
ABSOLUTISM AJTD IHDU8TBY.
The course which the young Emperor of
Germany took in dealing with the recent
miners' strike was about as ridicu
lous an example of absolutism applied to
industrial disputes as could well be im
agined. Hardly anything roye foreign to
the status of industrial matters iu this
country could be conceived than the
spectacle of the sovereign of the country
telling a delegation of the workingmen that
if they did not obey orders he would call
out the troops and have them cut down like
dogs; and thehMurning around and giving
their employers a sharp lecture, with or
ders to give the men fair wages and. steady
work;
It is certainly to the Emperor's credit
that he perceived the vital necessities of the
position. Order and respect for the law on
the part of the workmen, is something which
the ruling classes are very apt to teach; but"
few of them are as lucky as he to see that
the employers must found the principles of
good order in good pay and decent pros
perity for their employes. The rule of
might did better than usual in this case; J
and a good many people maybe led to think
that perhaps it might be well to have some
such power in this country, by which the
wasteful and destructive disputes between
labor and capital could be readihr adjusted
by a power higher than either of them.
Still such an opinion wonld be a mistake.
Neither labor nor capital would be bene
fited by taking their liberties away from
them. The grave disputes in which they
engage are an evil; but the evil will work
out its highest good when it makes the Em
ployers and their men learn that they must
settle their disputes intelligently and peace
ably. It is better for a nation to learn that
lesson even at the cost of some danger and
dispute than to lean upon some absolute
power to govern them.
Beyond that it appears that the imperial
order was not as efficient as was expected,
from the news that the strikers have come
into collision with the troops and that the
result of bloodshed has followed.
A SOCIETY CATCH.
Consul Doty, who has labored under the
stupendous burden of representing the
United States for some time in the Society
Islands, has won the "heart and hand of
Princess Polona. It is always pleasant to
note signs of life in our consular agents, es
pecially in the rather slumberous atmos
phere of the South Pacific. The Princess
Polona is said to be a pleasant, reddish
brown brunette, of refined tastes, accus
tomed to civilization's ways, Including the
bustle. That she is a woman of sense is
proved by the fact that she rejected an
offer of marriage made to her some time ago
by that eminent and aristocratic blackleg,
the Earl of Dudley, whose arrest for gam
bling in a London club house was chron
icled in The Dispatch recently. We
have sot the pleasure of knowing Mr.
Doty, but we feel reasonably sure that
Princess Polona will find him superior to
most of her olive or bright brown hrethren,
and certainly better than any errant En
glish earl.
It is a wonder that the Society Islands
have not attracted a greater number of
Americans to their hospitable shores. There
are thousands in this country, male and
female, who are eating their hearts out be
cause they cannot get into Bociety. Why
should not they find what they want in
Tahiti. We have reliable statistic? at hand
which state that pigs, dogs and rats, to say
nothing ofdoaaet&o animals in general,
thrive remarkably well on these islands.

It is noticeable that the Philadelphia
License Court took the same view of the
license law, with regard (6 wholesale license,
that our own court did. It rejected 225 ap
plications for wholesale licenses. The case
will be carried to the Supreme Court from
Philadelphia, and there the question will
be decided whether the same discretion is
given for granting of wholesale licenses as
has already been supported with regard to
the retail licenses.
The editorialfraternityin theBepublican
party mav not be saying much about the
fact that "two first-class missions the Ger
man and'Bussian are vacant; but that is no
reason why they should not keep on sawing
wood, just the same.
As the heated season advances with rapid
strides, the fact that the drug stores are not
permitted either to sell even soda water or
mineral drinks on Sunday, lends force to
the suggestion that someone feelingly pro
vides drinking fountains, where plenty of
cool water can be procured by the crowds
who march the streets on" Sunday afternoons
a better and healthier resort than hot
courts and back alleys.
The arrangements for the May "Festival
at the Exposition give great promise
of a striking and appropriate inauguration
of Pittsburg's new attraction. The Music
Festival will be a great musical event, and
a greater sooial one.

The remarks upon Mr. Kyrle Bellew's

Colonel W. S. Cody is not very well
satisfied with the reception of his Wild

which he objects most strenuously is that

doubtless qualifies him to exclaim, "This is
the most nnklndest cut of all."

As the poet Tennyson is suffering mors
and more nuder the infirmities of age, the
number of candidates for his position of
Poet Laureate increases. As the effect of the
office has heretofore been to deteriorate the
quality of the poetry, it is to be hoped, in
the interest of English literature, that all
the candidates may be disappointed by the
abolition of the place.
Now that the danger is past, it is rumored
that Bonlanger will go back to Paris and

Apropos of Mr. W.vD. Howells light

The party ot ladle from this city who went
to Cincinnati last week on the steamer Bcotla
have returned safely. There were no casuall
ties daring the voyage, although one or two of
the ladies had to return home by jaU, because
of family illness. On the second day out the
party organized with Mrs. Dr. Eifton as Presl-
uent, ana Airs. a. ju. watson- as vice presi
dent, and Mrs. Bchaefer, Secretary. These
ladies fulfilled their duties to the satisfaction
of the whole party. Mrs. Schaef er has written
a history of the voyage, or rather a humorous
account of all its incidents, and this will be
written out and given to every member of the
party as a memento of the trip. A committee.
has been appointed to look after the little book
and it will be handsomely bound with hand
painted covers, and otherwise made beautiful.
The officers of the Scotia were extremely sorry
to see the band of SO ladies get off, and the
ladles themselves would gladly make the trip
again. The news that she carried such a fair
cargo went ahead of the Scotia all the way
down, and the journey Consequently became
something like a triumphal progress. The gal
Iant captain bad a band taken on board soon
after the vessel passed into the State of Ohio,
and its music coupled with the fact that so
many ladies were known to be on board brought
out the Inhabitants of all the towns.
.
On their way up from Cincinnati their recep
tion was no less enthusiastic. The entire popu
lation of every town invariably lined the banks
as the Scotia drew near, and handkerchiefs
were waved continuously from the shore and
from the boat's deck. An Idea of how much
handkerchief waving was done on board the
Scotia may be obtained from the fact that
hardly a member of the party but had lost two
or more handkerchiefs before reaching Pitts
burg. One of the ladies tells me a funny story
about Greenup, a small town in Kentucky on
the river bank. 'When the Scotia drewnear to
it the people of Greenup, as usual, came out to
salute the vessel, and the ladies lined the
Scotia's rails to return the greeting. Thirty
handkerchiefs waved from the deck, but not
one appeared on shore. The good .people of
Greenup cheered and waved their hands, but
not one of them seemed to be the owner of a
handkerchief. At last a colored barber ran
out from his shop with two towels in his hand,
and with these he made a magnificent demon
stration. A small dog of the white Pomeranian
breed also added his tail to the salutation.
Greenup had an unpleasant reputation during
the war for banging runaway slaves, and it
looks as if Its people had not got out of bar
barism yet
The flood of applicants for naturalization pa
pers continues tobe very great m all the courts.
Court officials tell me that nine-tenths of the
new citizens are carefully getting their votes
ready to throw against the prohibition ques

new citizens I should imagine that the German
element very largely predominates.

Even the best restaurants in town make
little or no attempt to fix their bill ot fare to
suit the weather. The same hot meats, the
same entrees, and the same side dishes we were
glad enough to eat in December are still offered
tons. TVhen the thermometer shows 80 in the
shade men are not anxious to gorge themselves
with rich food. What men want now are cool,
appetizing dishes, salads, fresh vegetables and
refreshing liquids. The restaurant which takes
a lesson from the New York lunch bars, and
makes a study of hot weather dietetics will catch
an enormous number of Fittaburgers who
practically prefer to go lunchless under exist
ing conditions.
The Mail Pouch disgorged a letter 40 hours
ago which the editor ot that department
kindly hands to me to answer. Here is the
letter:
Deab Era-Please give me a little Information as
to the number of newspapers published, their
early history and when first Issued, and oblige
Tours truly, E. B. S.
P. S. Please answer this query to-morrow
morning, as I very much need the Information.
It would be a pleasant bagatelle to give E. B,
8. the information he desires, as far as the
mere work of compilation is concerned. The
only objection to the publication of the early
history of the world's newspapers, eta, in this
column is that it would keep it Oiled for about
half a dozen years, and the subject, we fear,
might become somewhat monotonous to most
readers of The Dispatch.
ALL Hf COSTUME.
A Very Pretty Amateur Theatrical and
Musical Performance.
The large hall of the Pittsburg Female Col
lege presented a pretty appearance last even
ing. The occasion was the presentation of
"The German- Peasant -Concert," and after
this, "Pandora."
The large hall was not as well filled as It
should have been, probably owing to the ex
tremely warm weather, but the visitors present
enjoyed the affair most thoroughly, and the
pretty slnging'and clever acting of the young
amateurs show very plainly that the Eastern
college craze ot amateur theatricals has
reaohed here with a vengeance, and found
some very bright amateurs, too.
The German concert was rendered by some
eight lovely young misses dressed in the pretty
peasant costumes of that country, somewhat
overdrawn, perhaps, as to color and arrange
ment, but very pleasing nevertheless. The
singers were Misses Mae Zeth, Catherine
Collins, Lulu Orcutt, Mary Robinson, Margie
Wilson and Emma waiter.
The Greek play, "Pandora," was also a pleas
ing affair, and in this Miss Hattle Cook, as
Epimethevt, showed herself to be an actress
and elocutionist of rare promise, and It is said
by her many friends the young lady is studying
for the stage. The other charming participants
were Misses Emma Soandau, Mary Reed, Ola
Lockwood, Nan Snodgrass, Kittle Lyons and
Mr. Frank Norcross,

ances. It was "Ye Aulden Tyme Concert" in all the
details of Its arrangements. The lady members
of the society were all arrayed in the fashions
of the past, from the ultra-grotesque, puffed-np
kind of costume of the times of Queens Anne
and Elizabeth, to the more picturesque of the
age ot Marie Antoinette. Among the gentle
men some very elegant suits were noticed, and
altogether the stage presented a very attractive
appearance.
The programme was composed ot 23 numbers
of choruses, quartets' and solos of the best
known composers of the day.
Messrs. D:E.Nuttall, W.E, Haines, W. S.
'Weeden, J. A. Strouss, the members ot the

companist, rendered very efficient assistance in
making the concert the success it turned out
tobe.

It Boiled Hetty on the Last Bar of the
Cateeaign Claim of the Ieaier-
Bayae on the AHeftkesy Feteee
General Goialp.
Twenty-fire men were waiting for Colonel
Bayne whenhe appeared yesterday morning at
the oSce of the JPrctt. They received their
instructions and went out to hustle. Others
kept coming and going all day, bringing in
reports and receiving instructions. It has gen
erally been conceded that the Sixth district Is
the real bone of contention, and whoever cap
tures that prize the winner. Colonel Bayne
told a DISPATCH reporter that while the Cox
matter was an aid in that district, his forces
would have won the fight without it. He felt
so sanguine ot this that he was even making
the claim that he would carry the Fifth dis
trict. Some of tbeMageemen confessed last
night that the Sixth looked a trifle shaky, and
they weren't betting much on winning it. Mr.
Magee, however, was uttering no such uncer
tain sound. The Magee headquarters in City
Hall were lust as active as the Bayne
I headquarters. Alk over the county yes-
teraay toe worsers oi ootn siaes wera
getting in their hardest licks. Mr. Magee con
cedes SO committeemen to the opposition, and
claims 60 for himself. Mr. Bayne yesterday of.

winner. Xn the evening he retired to bis home

A Question of Offices.
Colonel Bayne was asked yesterday concern
ing the offices, but bad little information to
give.. The most important thing, he said, was
that he didn't think the present Allegheny
postmaster would serve out his term, and when
he stepped out Mr. GUlIland would step in.
The latter was hard at work yesterday earning
his appointment. Colonel Bayne did not know
anything about the Pittsburg postofflce, be
said. Nevertheless, Mr. McKean worked just
as hard and just as cheerfully as Mr. Gllltfand
and as Mr. warmcastle, whose appointment is
secure. The Colonel said the statement in the
Washington correspondence of a morning
paper that he had indorsed "Mr. Holllday" for
Collector of Customs at Pittsburg Is a mistake
that grows out of the fact that he indorsed
Major Holllday, of Erie, for the position of
Commissioner of Customs at Washington. He
wouldn't say who was likely to get the customs
appointment In this city, and didn't know any
thing for publication about the other Federal
appointments here.
Legislators In Town,
Senator McLaln, of Washington county,
came to town yesterday. He was on his way
home. After the Legislature adjourned he
went to Boston to visit friends. Captain Bd
linzslev. member of the Legislature from the
same county, and author of the Billingsley bill,
was also here. Senator McLaln paid a visit to
Bayne headquarters, and then went to Alle
gheny to see Senator Rutin. Captain Billings.
ley paid his respects last evening to State
Chairman Andrews at his room at the
Seventh Avenne Hotel. 'Representative Pngh,
ot Somerset, who Isn't very particular whether
his next political venture Is the State Senate
or Congress, was also In the city. Representa
tives Btegmaler, Caffrey and Neary.of Lu
zerne, have returned home after a visit of
several days. Hon. Henry Houck, Deputy
Superintendent of Pnbllo Instruction, was
another official visitor yesterday.
Where the City Loses.
Controller Morrow was at els desk In his
office In City Hall yesterday after his trip to
Harrisburg, where he induced the Governor,
without much trouble, to sign the Pittsburg'
Street and sewer bill. He says the present
rush to the Btate capital for street railway
charters Is simply phenomenal. Mr. Morrow
still holds to the opinion that Senator New
myer's munlolpal lien bill will work great in
jury to the city. The Penn avenue end of the
trouble is not the only one, he says.
Under the law the city cannot enforce
the collections on judgments entered on liens
under 120, and there are a large number of
properties the taxes on which will not amount
to CO In the time In which liens must be entered.
Consequently, as the city cannot force the
matter, a great part of the money must be lost.
Drinks and the Color Line.
A colored employe of a City Hall office hid
an experience yesterday, concerning which
there is nothing laid down in the Brooks law.
He was invited out by a white friend to a
prominent hostelrle to take a drink. The col
ored brother's liquor was assessed at 25 cents
and that of the Caucasian at the regular rate.
"How much for beerT" Inquired the former.
"Fifteen cents to you," replied the smiling
bartender.
By stiffening the rate he lost a customer, but
is losing no sleep about it. He has probably
lost many others of the African persuasion In
the same manner.
Consal Jarre tt and Arthur.
John Jarrett had not last evening, received
official notification of his appointment as Con
sul to Birmingham, but expects it to-day. Mr.
Jarrett, it Is recalled, was appointed to a Con
sulate Dy the late President Arthur, who soon
afterward revoked the appointment on hearing
it reported that Mr. Jarrett had said be
was better fitted to be a scullion at Delmonico's
thanPresident of the United States. Mr. Jarrett
visited Mr. Arthur and told him be had not
said that at all, but had declared him better
fitted to preside at Delmonico's than to be
President. Mr. Arthur thought this bad
enough, and didn't revoke the revocation. One
cannot but admire Mr. Jarrett for the manly
way in which he stood by what he had said,

The Stronger Western Roads Are Protest
Ing Against Differential Bates.
Chicago, May 17. The rumored settlement
of all differential rates was the malntoploof
Interest among railroad men this morning. The
majority of the officials seen took strong
grounds against differentials, claiming that
they gave every advantage to the weak roads.
In an interview with the general manager of
a Western road, he said:
"There-Is no possible way of controlling the
effect of differentials unless all the roads inter
ested are In a pool. This whole subject has
been revived by the action of the Central Traf
fic Association in abolishing differentials on
dressed beef. The effect or differential rates
in this case is a type of the way it acts in every
thing else. Tbe differential roads carried prac
tically all the business and the strong roads got
almost nothing."
"What will be the effect on weak roads if
differential rates are taken from them?"
"Well, of course, they won't get much busi
ness. But why should theyT The doctrine of
the survival of the fittest must apply.. Why
should tho stronger roads practically pay out
money to their competitors? Differential rates
are. blackmailing rates. They are levied by
weak goats-horn' routes as a bonus for not
cutting rates. The strong roads, are getting
tired of the blackmail."
"But won't the weak roads demand differen
tials and take them, whether granted or not?"
"If they do, it will only kill them the sooner.
If tbe war comes, the strong roads will meet
any rate made by the weak roads, and tbe end
will be disastrous to some one."
Warning on Locusts' Wing.
From the BussellTiUe (Ky.) Herald.
Mr. George R. Beall brought to our office a
17-year loevst, and called our attention to the
marks on its wings. He said 17 years ago the
locusts had on each wing the letter "P" mean
ing "peace and plenty," and this year on each
wing wHlibe found "W" meaning "want and
war." Thirty-four years ago, so we understand,
the locusts had the same letters "WW," and
during that 17 years our Civil War occurred.
Making Fog by Machinery,
from the St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
After a series of experiments extending over
a number of years, a machine for the produc
tion of artificial fogs has been perfected. The
object is to produce sufficient humidity in the
air to render cotton spinning possible in the sul
try cotton-growing regtos of the South. If the
fog machine effects this it will rival the cotton
gin in value and importance.

tSnrroted In the New Bowery.
' A Mir of muscular fingers were placed on
the windpipe of Hiram W. Culver, lawyer, as
he was passing a dark alley In the new Bowery,
at 10 o'clock last night Two men took his
watoh and purse and then knocked blm down.
The minute tbe fingers loosened their grip on
Mr. Culver's throat he yelled for help. A
policeman who heard him followed the garro

They are now In-the Tombs.
Maybe an Extended Strike.
More than Li300 storemen, usually employed
in warehouses alone the Brooklyn water front,
are out on strike becanse tbe warehousemen
refused to raise tnelr wages from 20 cents to 25
cents per hour. Groups of the strikers picket
the approaches' to the stores. A number- of
men who crossed the river from this city, Ho
boken and Jersey City looking for employment
at the stores returned on being told that a
strfke was on hand. A little over 12 months
ago EL B. Bartlett organized all the warehouse
men from the Empire stores to the Erie basin
into a vast corporation, which raised the rates
for wharfage and tonnage and reduced the
wage of tbe storemen from 25 to 20 cents an
hour. The strike will probably extend along
tbe whole river front
James Gordon Bennett In Egypt.
A great many persons have been trying vainly
for several days to learn just where James Gor
don Bennett Is. All sorts of wild reports as to
his present whereabouts are current All that
Is known of him at the Herald office is that he
is now in Egypt and that he is going further
Inland. The last cablegram received from him
was dated Alexandria, One rumor is that tbe
cause of Mr. Bennett's departure to Egypt Is a
bet he made In one of tbe clubs of Paris that ne
could visit Khartoum and return unscathed.
Another report is that he received intelligence
that General Gordon was still alive and a pris
oner in the hands of the Mahdi, who would re
lease the General in consideration of 1,000,000
francs.

A PHILADELPHIA GOLD MINE.
Bradford' Galcb, a Regular Mining Camp,
In the Quaker CItr.
Philadelphia, May 17. For some time a
tegular mining camp has been in existence in
a back yard in this city. Its owner is Hezeklah
Bradford, a man of 80, living on North Twenty
second street Big boxes containing precious
ore are brought from Mr. Bradford's Colorado
mines.
Tho roomy backyard is Uttered with all the
appurtenances of camp life. Two big mining
sieves stand In the center, ana a steady stream
of water courses through them. In tbe sum
mer a big tent is stretched over the yard. Two
or three times a week the big boxes from bis
Colorado mines are bronght to the house by
express wagons, and then all is bustle and in
dustry at the camp. Two stalwart workmen
man the crusher, a big grinding machine of
the old miner's Invention. The contents of the
boxes are poured into tbe hopper, and rocks
and earth are ground to fine proportions.
Then Miner Bradford and his workmen put
the crushed ore, rock and dirt through the
sieves, rocking them to and fro while a stream
of water plays on the precious mud. Tbe gold
or silver bearing rock is thus separated in a
measure from the worthless dirt and nextthe
assaying apparatus in the house is brought into
play. With that Mr. Bradford tests the result
of his washing and determines whether the
new diggings at his distant mines keeps up tbe
average of pure metal found in former ship
ments. After saving a sample, which he care
fully dates and numbers and places with his
collection, the remainder of the precious metal
is taken to the Mint and sold. The principal
product of his mines, however, Is disposed ox In

comparing notes It was discovered that every
one had oome to Beaver Dam on precisely the
