The Senate remained in session until after
midnight trying to end the debate
on the tariff hill. The attempt
proved useless. Several Republican
members declined to permit the measure to
become a law until it had been more tally
discassed. There is a growing opposition
to reciprocity.
SPECIAL TFLEPBA3I TO TOT DISPATCH.1
Washington, September 8. Shortly
after midnight the Senate adjourned amid
some suppressed excitement. The general
debate on the tariff bill was to have finished
io-n;ght, but it did not. Several Repub
lican Senators kicked over the traces at the
last moment, and refused to allow the bili
Income to a 'vote until they had expressed
their views upon reciprocity.
The Blame plan grew less and less desir
able the more it was examined. A few days
ago almost everyone predicted the adoption
of the reciprocity amendment. Now it is
as freely predicted that it will be de
feated. At least half a dozen Republicans
arc outspoken in their opposition to it.
Senator Sherman's pro nositionforreciprocity
tilth Canada will hardly have sufficient fol
lowing to make it respectable, and it is said
the Senator talks of withdrawing it, that
the wcakntssof its support may cot be made
evident.
Plumb's ricurcs Sbon- a Deficit.
Early iii the debate to-day Senator Plumb
gave a resume or the appropriations for the
year, and argued that the appropriations for
future years would not fall short of those
for this year, and would, in regard to pen
sions, etc., largely exceed them. He esti
mated the cost under the new pension bill at
50,000,000 at least There would be added
to the list pensioners widows and dependent
parents to the amount of at least 10,000,000.
And there would be added, he believed, at
least 400,000 soldiers. In fact, he should be
greatly surprised if, in the next three years,
the payment on account of that law would
cot amount to JGO.000,000 a year.
lie continued his summary of appropria
tions, and said these would have to be ad
ded to them the amount that would be re
quired under the direct tax bill lor the
1'rcnch spoliation claims, for the Interna
tional Tair, and under the election law. He
thus estimated the expenditures of the Gov
ernment at S4jO,000,000 ana its revenues at
S400.000.000, and said that a deficit was just
as sure as the rising of the sun. If his
amendment were incorporated in the tariff
bill it would add 521,500,000 to the revenue.
Tnrlffon Micar a stumbling Block.
After some discussion the Finance Com
mittee's amendment imposing a tax on all
sugars above Ko. 13 Dutch standard ras
agreed to yeas 39, nays 12. The Finance
Committee's amendment making the duty
on sugar above No. 16 Butch standard
G-lOths of a cent per pound, instead of
4-10ths, as in the House bill, was also agreed
to yeas 29, rays 23. Mr. Quay offered the
amendment proposed by him on August 1
fixing the duties between Nos. 13 and 1G
Dutch standard at 3-10ths of a cent per
round; between 1G and 20 at C-lOths, and
above No. 20 at 1 cent a pound.
At the suggestion of Mr. Manderson, Mr.
Quay modified his amendment so as to make
the duty on all grades above No. 20 8-10 of
a cent per pound. Mr. Gorman opposed the
amendment as in the interest of sugar re
finers, giving them an absolute monopoly.
Mr. Vest also opposed it The refiners, he
said, had now all that they wanted. They
had triumphed by the votes taken to-day,
which would put millions and millions into
their pockets. Mr. Quay's amendment was
rejected.
The proviso in paragraph 223, that in case
of an export dnty imposed by any country,
the suears from that country shall be sub
ject to the duties under existing law gave
rise to an informal discussion in the course
of which Mr. Allison stated that it would
exclude sugars from Cuba and Porto Rico,
wuere there was an export duty of one-sixth
o1 a cent a pound, and that export dnty was
pledged for a portion of the debt of Cuba, so
that there would be
Difficulty and Complication
in the matter, and Mr. Carlisle gave it as
hi- opinion that the provision was objection
able in any form. He could not see how the
thing would operate to have some sugar'ad
mitted free and some sugar subject to duty.
The difficulty was solved by Mr. Aldrich on
behalf of the committee withdrawing the
proviso.
The next qnestion was on the Finance
Committee's amendment to include maple
sugaramong those for which a bounty is to
be paid. Mr. Edmunds advocated the
amendment and claimed that maple sugar
tell within the sime policy and the same
justice as other sugars. It was a business
of small farms.
Mr. Carlisle declared himself opposed to
nil sugar Doun lies and therefore opposed to

SURPRISE
their extension to maple sugar. No small
farmers, he declared, would ever receive a
cent of bounty for maple sugar, because,
under the bill, no bounty would be paid
unless the product by one person was at
least 500 pounds, and he did not suppose
that any farmer in the country produced so
much maple sugar, unless it might be in

Mr. Edmunds assured Mr. Carlisle that
in the State of Vermont there were 1,000
farmers who produced more than 600 pounds
of maple sugar annually. The amendment
was agreed to yeas 30, nays 25.
The evening session was opened by Mr.
Casey, who addressed the Senate in favor ol
reciprocity.
Mr. Cullom also addressed the Senate in
favor of a reciprocity between the United
States and other nations, especially Mexico
and Central and South Americas. He was
not, .however, in favor (he said) of such a
system of reciprocity as would in the slight
est degree interfere with the policy of pro
tection to American industry and labor.
Put it was a question in his mind whether
it would not be better to allow the whole
question of reciprocity to rest with the
President and the Secretary of the State
who had the constitutional power to make
treaties with foreign governments.
No Reciprocity With Canada.
As to reciprocity with Canada he thought
that the attitude of the Dominion Govern
ment was not such as called for any speedy
action lookine to reciprocity. That Gov
ernment had pursued in many ways and for
manv years a policy of aggression toward
cue unitea states, ana had, in doing so,
acted under the domination of the Canadian
Pacific Railway Company whose road had
been bnilt by"the aid of the Government,
besides not for commercial, but for military
and political purposes.
He cited sections of Canadian statutes to
show a purpose of the Dominion Govern
ment to aid the Canadian Pacific Railway
in reaching the United States and securing
traffic at the expense of the American rail
ways. And he mentioned the large sub
sidies given by both the Canadian and
British Governments to steamship lines
intended to divert commerce from
American ships and American railroad
lines. He declared himself in favor of a
national policy that would protect the inter
ests ot the United States against aggression
from any foreign nation. He was a protec
tionist not only in support of a tariff bill,
but he was lor protecting American inter
ests and the national honor in dealing with
all foreign nations.
bpoooer Wonts Something Definite.
Mr. Spooner declared himself in favor of
the reciprocity provision; provided it indi
cated the items and articles. But he wonld
not favor reciprocity with Canada. He
nopea to see the day when the American
flag would fly over Canada and when the
British flag would be gone. Commercial
union would come with political union and
not until then. It would come much earlier
than by truckling to an aggressive and un
friendlv neighbor.
Mr. Hawley protested against the closing
of the consideration of the bill without a
Senator having a chance to ask a question
of the Committee on Finance to get any in
formation touchiog the question of reci
procity, which had not been formally be
fore the Senate as a pending question.
The presiding officer (Ingalls) confirmed
Mr. Hawley's statement that no reciprocity
amendment had been offered. Mr. Allison
said that he desired to make some remarks
in reply to Mr. Aldrich's statement on the
sugar question, and that the bill would not
become alawuntilhehadthe opportunity
of doing so.
Another Republican Kicker.
Mr. Evarts (about midnight) said that he
proposed to discuss the reciprocity question,
which had now been for the first time
brought into the debate, in the sense of any
action to be taken. He proposed to modifv
the committee's amendment so as to make
it the duty of the President, when satisfied
that a country from which sugar, molasses.
fes, coffee or hides are imported maintains a
policy that is reciprocally unequal and
unreasonable, to communicate the facts to
Congress, that duties may be imposed on
such articles. He proceeded to argue in
support of his proposition and against em
powering the Pressdent to act of his own
accord without direct authority of Congress.
Mr. Gray gave his entire "assent to the
position laid down by Mr. Evarts. With
out action the Senate at 12:15 adjourned till
to-morrow at 10 a. m.
PENSION CLERKS REINSTATED.
Interesting Sequel to the Notorious
An
Cases of Iteration.
IFBOII A ETAFP COBItESPOXDKJJT.l
"Washington, September 8. It has
been kept very quiet, and is only known to
a lew outside the Pension Office," that of the
two clerks Bond and Engle, who .were dis
missed on account of the rerating of their
pensions. Bond remains out voluntarily on
account of ill health, and Engle has been
reinstated at 51,000 a year, with a promise
of promotion to his former grade at 51,800
as soon as opportunity offers". Not only has
this been done, but both Bond and Engle
have had their pensions restored which were
suspended for the purpose of getting back
for the Government the amount secured by
the clerks under the rerating, and the res
toration is ordered to begin on the first of
July.
This is a direct and emphatic admission
ou the part of the authorities of the Inter
ior Department that they were wrong in
demanding tfie resignation of these clerks
and where justice comes in, in taking from
these men their pensions for a whole vear
and then restoring the pension before the
full amount secured by the rerating is re
covered, is one of the queries among the
Grand Army men here which has not yet
been answered.

Washington, September 8. Knowing
the despair and disgnst of the agricultural
and industrial elements in regard to bills in
which they are specially interested, it is
probable that one for the passage of which
they have generally petitioned will be yet
taken up and considered at least by the
House. It is the bill to prohibit dealing in

times bo serious an effect on the prices of
grain, flour, pork and other necessaries.
Mr. Cannon, of the Committee on Rules
said to-day that he for one was heartily in
favor of fixing a day for the consideration of
the bill, and he thought a majority and
probably all of the committee were in sym

however, for the consideration of the bill by

HARRISON MAT VETO II.
Tho River and Harbor Bill Don Not Find

rsriCMI. TELEQBAM TO TBS DISPATCH.!
WASHiNGTON.September 8. The friends
of the river and habor bill are greatly
alarmed at a report received at the Capitol
to-day, to the effect that President Harrison
is determined to veto the measure. This re
port is circulated on the authority of one of
the highest officials of the War Department,
one whose duties directly relate to river and
harbor improvements. This official does
not say definitely that the President will
not sign the bill, but says he greatly fears
that he will not. The bill is unusually
large this year, the total snm appropriated
being $24,981,293. It has passed both
Houses and will be sent to Cresson Springs
at once. The men in the House who have
had the bill in charge admit that there is
serious cause to fear that the President will
not sign the bill. They have endeavored
unsuccessfully for several weeks past to in
duce him to signify his friendliness to it,
and now they are almost despairing.
Moreover, these members have been
quietly canvassing the House during the
past few days and they privately express
the opinion that they will have votes enough
to pass the bill over the Presidental veto,
should one be forthcoming. In case a veto
is sent in it is said the President will proba
bly recommend an appropriation of $15,
000,000 to be expended under the direction
of the Secretary of War in carrying on work,
already begun.

Washington, September 8. The news
of Speaker Reed's brilliant triumph was re

by Republicans and corresponding depres

"It does not make any difference, how

One would almost think a Presidental

this morning who we're willing to bet that

New York, September 8. James Ken
nedy was formally admitted into the He
brew faith on Sunday night, and was then
married according to the rules of that faith
to Miss lizzie Isaacs. The ceremony was
performed by .Rabbi Witner, of the Keap
street synagogue, at the residence of the
bride's mother. A year ago Mr. Kennedy
became acquainted with Miss Isaacs, and,
falling in love with her, gained her consent
to marriage, but with the proviso that he
shonld present himself to her mother and
obtain her sanction to their union. Mr.
Kennedy presented himself, but was unable
to get Mrs. Isaacs to consent to the mar
riage. Baffled, Mr. Kennedy for a time
gave up the project.
"But," said an intimate friend, "he did
not know how much he loved the little
Hebrew, and he soon began frequenting the
neighborhood of her honse. They took
walks and drives together until the mother
discovered their meetings. Thi? made him
more circumspect, and we were surprised
lately when he told us that he was going to
marry Lizzie. His friends made inquiries
little by little, and finally the whole story
came out To get the girl he gave np the

which ended with the marriage."

New Yoke, September 8. Judge La.

handed down to-day a decision upon which
Giuseppe Verano and Rafaello Aleano,
Italians, who arrived here on Saturday on
the steamer Bolivia, will be sent back on
that vessel. The men told Landing Agent
Simpson that they had served terms of im
prisonment in Italy for assault with knives.
Their counsel claimed that the offenses were
simply misdemeanors and that they should
not be sent back as convicts.
The Judge held that as they had been
convicted of using deadly weapons they
came within the provisions of tne Federal
statutes prohibiting criminals from landing.'
Counsel for the men said that it was ex
tremely unfortunate, as one of them has a
wife and three children in this country. If
they had come as cabin passengers instead
of in the steerage, he said, they would not
have been molested. It is only to steerage
passengers that the law is applied, he said.

From Destruction.
POTJGnKEEPSlE, September 8. A des

the fast St Louis and Chicago express which
leaves New York on the New York Central
road at 6 p. m. The train was stopped by a
danger signal south of Old Troy, which is
600 yards south of the new Hamburgh draw
bridge. Two minutes previous the flagman
had discovered several ties standing end
ways iu tbo culvert .near Old Troy, and
when he took hold of one of them to remove
it he was fired upon from the bushes on the
east side of the track. Knowing that the
fast express was nearly due he ran south
ward and set the danger signal, which
stopped the train.
The flagman said the ties stuck up above
the rails and would certainly have thrown
the train from the track. . The fast
train was composed of seven or eight sleep
ing cars all full, two ordinary coaches and
a baggage car. There were eight ties on the
up main track. There were also two ties
placed along side of the rail toward the
south in order to ditch the train. The train
passed here half an hour late.

Columbus, September 8. The Demo
cratic State Central Committee will meet
to-morrow to select an executive committee
and organize for the campaign. There are
indications of trouble over the selection of
Chairman and Secretary of the Campaign
Committee. T. E. Cromley, who heads the
ticket, wants Senator Van Cleaf for Chair
man, while the other candidates are opposed
to him, as well as their friends. Governor
Campbell returned from the East to-day,
and three of the candidates on the ticket
held a consultation with him relative to the
chairmanship, but without result Van
Cleaf has been advised that he is not the
choice of the Payne or McLean interests in
the State, and it is also understood that
Colonel Brice has intimated he wonld
prefer another.
Cromley and Van Cleaf wereMoMahon
men during the senatorial contest, and are
consequently greatly in the minority as
regards forces. The other candidates on the
ticket fear Cromley will drive the financial
snpport which would come from these
sources away from the committee, if he con
tinues to insist on Van Cleaf. It is be
lieved, however, that the latter will be
selected and the Representative Geyer. a
Thomas worker during the senatorial con
test, will be chosen Secretary. The opposi
tion to Van Cleaf are urging Geyer and
Captain Gil Bargar for the chairmanship,
and would be satisfied with either.

here is for the purpose of meeting the Sena
tor's daughter, who is about to sail for
Europe. The Senator was in an amiable
frame of mind and is apparently undis
turbed regarding the political situation.
When asked the object of his visit'and the
length of time he Intended remaining, he
replied: "I left Washington late this after
noon and will return in the morning. My
object in coming was to bid my daughter
goodby. She is going to Europe, and Dick
and I came over to see her off."
""What about the campaign in this'State?"
was asked.
"Oh, the campaign in this State," he re
plied, "lean say bnt little. So much time
has been so taken up at Washington attend
ing to Senatorial duties that I have not had
time to pay any attention to the workings of
the campaign in this State."
Before retiring for the night Senator Quay
had a talk with Chairman Andrews, of the
Republican State Committee, and Collector
of Internal Revenue David Martin. They
gave him points on inside campaign mat
ters, and, in talking afterward upon the
subject. Senator Quay expressed himself as
satisfied with the condition of the campaign
in the State.
Christopher L. Magee, the Republican

who is the acknowledged Quay lieutenant
in this section of the State.
"How is Mr. Martin?" said the Allegheny
countv leader.
"I "am feeling first rate," replied the
leader of the local combination of ward
leaders. "We are a little busy down here
just now getting ready for November."
"You are following out a good line of
policy by sticking close to the people," 'con
tinned Mr. Magee, "and as a leader yon are
making a success."
The two remained chatting pleasantly to
gether for some little time, but the BUbject
of politics was not again touched upon.
Collector Martin, after bidding good-by to
Mr. Magee, started for his office in tne post
office building, while the recognized leader
of the Allegheny county Republicans con
tinned on his way, to the financial centers.
Near Eighth and Chestnut he was met by
George W. Childs, with whom he talked for
some time. After leaving Mr. Childs, Mr.
Magee met with Wharton Barker, and the
two entered the private office of the banking
firm of which Mr. Barker istbe headland
remained in close conversation for some
time. At the termination of the interview
Mr. Magee declared that bis business was
not of a political character.

Pattison, State Chairman Eerr, ex
Representative John E. Faunce, City
Chairman Charles P. Donnelly, Samuel
Josephs, United States District Attorney
John E. Read and B. F.Hall, of Elk
county, met at the Democratic State Head
quarters to-night, and discussed at length
the political situation throughout the State.
Suggestions of every nature were made
tending to the election of candidate Pattison
and an enthusiastic feeling was prevalent.
The Campaign Committee of the Young
Men's Democratic Association held a meet
ing to-night and empowered Chairman
William R. Wright to appoint an Execu
tive Committee of nine members to arrange
for public mass meetings to be held at the
discretion of the committee, and to act in
conjunction with the Democratic City and
State committees.
The Several ward committees, in conjunc
tion with the Democratic City Committee,
held their meeting to-night at the rooms of
the Americus Club. Delegates were ap
pointed to make an inspection of the asses
sor's list of each division and to canvass the
same with the view of finding any illegally

BTJTAN CALLS UPON MAPES,

(SPECIAL TSLEOBAM TO THE DISP ATOH.l
Philadelphia, September 8, Chair
man Mapes, of the Independent Republican
Committee, was busy all day to-day answer
ing letters from the interior of the State.
Charles S. Wolfe, of Union county, called
and reported the organization of a Pattison
Republican Club at Sharpsburg, and that a
large number of disaffeoted Republicans
were giving it hearty support. State Sena
tor James S. Rutan also called on Mr.
Mapes, and whispered very encouraging
words in his ear. It had been reported that
Wharton Barker would in the near future
appoint a committee of 50 to look after the
Pattison interest in this city. This hajl
probably been confounded with the Lincoln
Republican Committee, who have already
issued their manifesto. A State Committee
will be formed, as originally stated, but no
City Committee will be formed.
On Friday next the Executive Committee
of the city Citizens' Republican Committee
will bold a meeting at their headquarters to
devise some means to promote the election
of the Repnblican State ticket, and also to
appoint a permanent Chairman to succeed
Frank M. Riter, who has only been tem
porarily in charge.

BY BURLAP'S CABLE COMPACT.
London, September 8. The fracas at
Theater Royal, Drury Lane, on Satnrday
evening dnring the performance of 'A
Million of Money," in which the well
known artist, James McNeil Whistler, as
saulted Augustus M. Moore, the editor of
the Sauk, is the talk of all the clubs In
the forthcoming number of that paper,
which will be issued to-morrow, Mr. Moore
makes the following statement:
I have long prided myself on being the only
editor who, from respect to his art, has never
helped Whistler to write himself down an ass
by publishing his silly letters. There is some
thing sorrowful In seeing a great artist in his
declining years turning literary cartwbeels in
the gutter, but this little withered old man;
who has sucked the blood of notoriety all his
life, and who has fondly fooled himself that he
is a fereat Chief, ana that by buying donkey
hair wigs he has been taking men's scalps, will
not be comforted. Alas! you cannot saro fools
from their friends; only the Almighty can
guide our actions. I am punished for my pre
sumption. Only think of it, I have had to slap
Whistler. 1 am sorry, but my Irish blood cot
the better of me, and before I thought of It the
shriveled np little monkey was knocked over
and was kicking abont on the floor.
Mr. Moore then proceeds to describe how,
when he was in the theater lobby, he felt a
tap on his shonlder and heard a squeaking
voice crying: "Hawk! Hawk!" and turning
around expecting to find a plaful friend,
saw a hysterical hornet of Brobdignadean
size bobbing about. He adds that at first
he thought it was a pantomime property
come out for a spree, but gradually he
recognized the little Scotch Yankee dancing
a Highland fling and swinging a twopenny
halfpenny cane. Mr. Moore, after stating
the'nature of Whistler's assault and how he
(Moore) knocked the artist down, proceeded:
I am exceedingly sorry, and hope that I only
gave Whistler a shaking. Hewaslgnomlnlonsly
thrust out of the theater, which, 1 think, was
quito needless, as though he was not behaving
well by making a soene in another man's honse;
be could not have hurt anybody, and no women
were present.
The article closes with the stingingly sar
castic remark that the whole affair wis got
up to advertise that spindle-shanked butter
fly, Whistler, and that his wrath was dne to
the Hawk's mention of the name of his wife's
first husband and the late E. W. Godwin in
couneotion with the famous Greek play
which was produced abont four years ago at
Hengler's Cirque.

WRATH OF A WORLD'S FAIR DIRECTOR.
He Resigns His Position and Answer Sev
eral Charges Acainst Him.
Chicago, September 8. In a somewhat
tart letter Vice President T. B. Bryan, of
the World's Fair directory, resigned his
position this evening. Mr. Bryan has taken
a prominent part in tha World's Fair move
ment from the very start, and hia snddan
resignation caused no small commotion.
Mr. Bryan's letter opens with a brief para
graph announcing that the coming election
of a director general should relieve the
direotory from the necessity of paying for
the services of an active vice president.
The letter thenr'continues through several
pages of type-written copy wholly devoted
to the self-defense of Mr." Bryan against
charges that he got f 10,000 to go to Georgia
and did not get the vote of a single Con
gressman from Ceorgia for Chicago; that
Mr. Bryan sent his son to Sweden for in
formation which any consul in the country
could have furnished, and that a gentleman
who has been slated for director general
and who has been log-rolling for tbe Jack
son Park site got 510,000 for going to Paris
for information that was already available
in Chicago. Mr. Bryan denies that mis
sions to Paris or Sweden cost the directors a
cent, bnt declares that he not only had no
money for a Georgia trip, bnt he never
made snch a journey. The charges Mr.
Bryan ascribes to a State Senator residing in
Chicago. .

One of the Metropolitan ErprtseatatiTe Emoloyaeat
Agencies.
Men who were brought from New York to
Western Pennsylvania, being -promised
work in the mines at Irwin, tell an interest
ing story of their treatment by the agent
who engaged them. There were 126 of
these laborers. They did not go to work at
J bnt many have found jobs in Pitta
b"o' 1p vicinity.
T .g iperintendent John P. Wolf, of
the Jt -e .qs Coal Company, informed a
DlSPA 4 .porter Friday last that hia
company a conjunction with the West
moreland, GpV, had determined to break
the strike p "Jrtn by employing Swedes
"and others, ,, ed to say that they had
already appe. rthe ground and refused
to work on lea, Je condition of 'affairs
there. The co&anies were determined in
their resolve, and went systematically to
work to accomplish this end.
S. F. Sloniska is an employment agent at
No. 10 Battery Building, New York City,
whose mission is to provide work for any
innocent laborer who is foolish enough to
believe in his promises or capability of do
ing so. Mr. Sloniska thrives, as the sequel
Bhows. He inserted an advertisement in a
New York German paper, at the instance of
some people whose identity is not revealed,
but may be surmised, in the following
terms:
WANTED 200 men. Steady work. "Wages
from 2 to S3 per dav. Fare Free. Nr
strike guaranteed, S. F. SLONISKA, No. 10
Battery Building.
"PTHAT THEY "VVEEE TOLD.
In response to this enticing "ad" of Mr.
Sloniska an army of the unemployed of tho
big metropolis appeared in the gentleman's
parlor. From these he selected 126 of tho
most promising, and told them that there
was grand work, plenty of money, com
fortable houses, and a perfect Elysium at a
place called Irwin, in Pennsylvania. It
was a coal mining town; a new company
was just beginning to operate and wanted
men. Would they go? Ob, yes; delighted.
And 126 victims of Mr. Sloniska's wily ways
agreed to enter the service of the new com
pany at the terms offered. When should,
they start? Immediately; but there was a.
little financial transaction to be arranged
first. What was that? Oh, Mr.
Sloniska was disposed to- help his
fellow man in every way in his
power, bnt he had to live. He was under
great expense, and wonld ask each of his
lriends to pay him 52 or 51, as they could
spare it, in return for having found them
employment. And then each of the needy
and unsuspecting applicants handed over
51, and a good many of them $2, to the phi
lanthropic Mr. Sloniska, who then informed
them that they would be under no expense
in reaching their destination, as be had in
structions to par their fare. And on last
Thursday a motfey crowd of Swedes, Ger
mans and Hungarians embarked on board of
three special cars, in Jersey City, and fonnd
themselves en route for Irwin station. ww
This is tbe story as related by the men
to a Dispatch reporter last night,
INEOEMED OP THE STEIKE.
Arrived at Irwin, local officials of tha
United Mine Workers were not slow to ac
quaint the men that they had come to re
place striking miners. With ready acqui
escence in tbe state of affairs they at onca
determined not to work when they should
be called upon. Bnt it seems thev were not
given the chance of refusing. Upon their
arrival there was no accommodation pro
vided for them, and they sought tbe best
shelter they could in deserted houses, and
rested at night upon straw.
The 'local officials provided them with
sneb food as they could procure from their
own scanty store, and for three days they
lived in this precarious way. Finally an
official brought them to this city yesterday,
and procured them quarters at night in the
Bethel Home. It was here that a Dis
patch reporter learned their tale, as related
above. The official who came with them
busied himself inrfinding them work, and
successfully, as most of them go to work to
day, on the Pittsburg, Allegheny and Man
chestei electric line for Booth &Flinn.
They are all hardy looking meu. and
accustomed to the ways of the country.
There was not a new arrival among th'
all being in the country for a longe.
shorter period. Some are mecham
brewery hands, blacksmiths, but as far
could be learned, there was not a miner
the crowd. The United Miners bore tl
cost of their transportation and subsequen
expense while here.
A WEALTHY YOTJUa SMUGGLER.
Ho Tried to Bring in 89.000 Worth of Jew
elry Without Paying Duty.
Nz-w York, September 8. W. K. Med
hurst, a young Englishman who some time
ago inherited $300,000 from his uncle, ar
rived at this port yesterday onboard the
steamship Power Hill from Liverpool. He
brought along with him his horses, car
riages, etc., intending to remain here for
some time. To-day, Special Agent Wilbur,
of the Treasury Department, ordered a care
ful examination of Mr. Medhurst's baggage.
The result is that there is now in the seiz
ure room of the Custom House about 59,000
worth of diamonds and pearls, put together
in tbe most exquisite workmanship.
The jewels were found in Mr. Medhurst's
baggage and as they were all ornaments fit
only for a lady's use and with monograms
on them that did not correspond with the
initials, they were promptly seized. The
most valuable is a triple pearl necklace,
valued at 57,500. All that Mr. Medhurst
said when the seizure was made was that
when the goods were sold he would be on
hand to buy them in.
