The Edgar Thomson Works to Go Back to the Use of Coal. LITE SEWS FROM THE THREE STATES TtTECIAI. T.XGBAM to THB DIBPATCn.1 Erie, April 13. Quite a sensation was created here by the refusal of the postoffice clerks and the carriers, to pay their city taxes. The Pennsylvania laws put a valua tion on every man's trade, occupation or profession, and on this valuation taxes are levied for all purposes. The occupation tax postoffice employes refuse to pay. Their refusal is based on a United States Supreme Court decision of 1843. Daniel Dobbins, captain of the revenue cutter Erie, stationed here, refused to pay taxes assessed on his occupation as a Gov ernment official. Common Pleas Court de cided in his favor. The State Supreme Court reversed the lower court. Then the United States Supreme Court reversed the lower court and decided that the States could not lawfully tax the salaries of Federal officers. Under that decision no Federal officer in the State need pay the occupation tax, but it would disfranchise those who did not own property, as the payment of taxes in this State is essential to suffrage.

Tbe price Is the highest paid for many years, and the men can get all they want to do, as tho mines aro now crowded with men wanting work. At the Lovedale works last Satnrday one man drew 591 50 for 12 days' work, and an other drew 81 for the same time. There were a number of other pays almost as high. In the two cases named the coal was all dug by the men. but each had a boy to help him load tbe wagon. The coal works of W. X. Robbins, about three miles below this place, and long known ss the Robbins and Jenkins works, are to be abandoned. Tho coal in the block is not en tirely worked out, but it can no longer be worKed to advantage. The work of dismant ling the mine will begin at once. AHOTHEB LANCASTER FAttTJEE.

Tbomas Baumeard ncr, at one time reputed to be tbe wealthiest citizen of Lancaster, made an assignment this afternoon. His liabilities aro estimated at from J500,X) to S750.O00; assets probably very small. Banmjardner is a member of tbe firm of Baumjardner, Ebennan fc Co., which assigned on Saturday, with heavy liabilities, and was largely interested in the coal and lumber busi ness. This is believed to be tbe culmination of the tail u res in this citv, which were brought about largely, it is said, by over endorsement and enormous speculations largely on borrowed capital. Henry U Stehman, a large farmer and tobacco dealer of East HempSeld township, this county, made an assignment to-day. His liabilities are S100.000: assets about the same. This failure was connected with tbe Baum-gardner-Eberman failure. TO GO BACK TO O0AL. The Edgar Thompson Works May Discard, the Use or Gas. rfrECIAt TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH! Monosoahela Citt.

General Merritt, com mander of this military department, has re ceived a report from Colonel Wade, of the Fifth United States Cavalry at Fort Reno, In dian Territory, in regard to tbe enlistment of Indians in tbe regular infantry. Colonel Wade says strong efforts were made to lndnce In dians to enlist, but they were of no avail, not a single one of them having been sworn In. General Merrltt thinks the attempt on the part ot the Government to enlist Indians as regular soldiers will prove a failure. They will serve as scouts without hesitation and are efficient and valuable In that capacity, but they have a very positive aversion to enlisting as either infantry or cavalry, and in tbe Indian Territory at least will not enter the regular service.

Successful Opening of the Show on Fifth Avenue Harry Davis' Museum Trans formed Into a Gigantic Nursery Some or the Babies on Exhibition. The baby show at Harry Davis Fifth Avenue Museum opened yesterday, with 70 little darlings competing for the numerous prizes that have been offered.. The babies are classified into "Handsome," "Fat," "Small," "Curious," "Long Haired" and "Twins," who are individually desig nated by numbers in blue, which are placed above the baby-jumpers. The mother of each wears a duplicate number in red. By no means the least interesting of the little folk is a foundling, which had been left on the hands of Mrs. Burke, of Allegheny, by its heartless parents. When the lat ter failed to return, and it dawned upon tbe good lady that the poor little waif had been deserted, she applied to Agent Dean to have him take care of it. After a good deal of persuasion Mr. Davis obtained the agent's permission to exhit the child, in consideration of plac ing $50 to its credit. Benevolent visitors have since increased this sum. In the "Handsome" class 30 proud mothers exhibit as many babies. Among the 15 entries under the caption "Small," there is one tot 13 months old, weighing but o pounds, strongly contrasting with a 42 pound baby, 7 months younger, in the "Fat" class. Of the five long-haired babies, one, 3 months old with hair 3 inches long is specially noticeable. Six pairs of as hand some twins as Pennsylvania has ever pro duced arc' also on view. All during the afternoon and evening mothers, accompanied by children, flocked to the museum. Of course, comparisons were made, and Invariably resulted in the verdict on the part of each mother that her baby was the handsomest of all. Many of the visitors availed themselves of the privilege of voting, and, in cases where they were personally acquainted with the mothers, they voted on the old principle, "early and often." A special prize of a diamond ring had been offered lor the handsomest mother, and consequently they looked theirWeetest. There is a nnrsery on tbe premises, in which two thoroughly trained nurses hold sway. The mother who wanted to enter s baby afflicted with whooping cough, was excluded after Dr. Frank McDonald, the physician In attendance, had made an examination. Hundreds of people shook hands with and fondled the little ones, who all look comfortable and contented. Credit to Whom Credit Is Dae. The announcement of a play to be given by the Tuesday Night Club on next Thurs day evening, at the Pittsburg Club Theater, for the benefit of the Church Home, was made under a misapprehension.
