The Sale Committee at Scoltdale Trying to Ueachleims. DEATQ OP ONE OP OHIO'S PIONEERS rsrrciAi. teleorjlm to tiie disfatck.i Uniontown, March 10. Cyrus A. Por ter is being tried on the charge of poisoning the sheep and other stock of Jliss Moore, who resides near Cew Salem. The Boison inp occurred last summer, and the arrest of Porter for the crime caused a sensation. Porter was formerly County Auditor, and was a suitor of Miss Adeline Moore, the prosecutor in the case. It has been claimed that his offense was prompted by her re fusal to marry him. The two brothers of the Moore girls testified that they had found blue Titnol mixed with oats in the field where the poisoned cattle were. Porter was seen by them at unseemly hours about the premises, and after his isits they were sure to find the poison scattered. At one time 29 sheep died, and when the persecutions became unbearable the Moore airls had Porter arrested on sus picion. J C. Barrett, a chcunt, testihed that he had analyzed portions of the stomachs of the dead aniulals and found that thej contained blue vitriol and arsenic Miss Adeline Moore, the prosecutrix, testified she saw Porter come down from h.s house to a certain place in their field: 20 minutes after he left poion was found where he had been. The evidence adduced against Porter to-day was purely circum stantial. THE CONNELLSVILLE REGION. Some of the Smaller Operators Are Starting Their Ovens.

The original demaud was for an averace general advance of 15 per cent. 'W eight scales on tipples and other re quirements have been abandoned, and the Email operators who were refused the privilege of continuing in operation at the old figures, it is taid. are now being encouraged to resume U on the terms heretofore refused them. The victory of the Monongahcla miners and tLeir resumption this week has encouraged the strikers considerably Many of them are more hopeful now than the were a week ago. But that there is widespread dissatisfaction among the men is admitted bv James Mcllride, a ineuioercl the United Mine oi ker District Kx ecu tnc Board, in a speech at Mt. Pleasant lut baturdaj. 71.e 1-airchance Furnace Company was one cf the firm that asked to he allowed to con tinue working at the old wages until anew agreement was mafic- the requet was re lued General Mamcr It. L. Aiartin said he would start anyhow, and he did. Finding it impossible to prevent the return to work at the old wages ot luoe who had an opportunity to do so, the labor leaders extended a general in vitation to the small operators to resuin; on tbt me terms So far but luo of them, tlic I'enumlle Coke Company and the Perney Mining Company, have accepted the offer.

The only case dis posed of br the Board of Pardons at its meet ing to-da was that of Joseph and David isice lj, of bomersct county, whoso execution is fixed for April 2 next. The board was briefly addressed lj Mr. Gilbert, of this citv. who re ferred toscteial affidavits which had beeu filed as showing that the murder of Abram Umber ger b the Niceli brothers was very improba ble, and seeking to contradict the testimony of witnesses w hich went far toward tuc conviction of the culprits The board did not resrard the now papers filed of sufficient weight to justify the re opening of the case, and unanimously decidea against granting the murderers another hearing. The recent discovery of a number of saws in the cells of the Isicel6. intended to enable them 10 es cape, has something to do with the prompt dis position of the case b the board. This will probably bo the last appeal that will be made looking to a commutatiou of the death penalty to imprisonment for life, although it is claimed by counsel for the prisoners if another hearing were accorded the condemned additional evi dence would be submitted to show their inno cence.
