AWAY.
Mrs. ax-President John Tyler died at the
Exchange Hotel, Richmond, Va., Wednes
day evening from a congestive chill. Mrs.
Tyler had only been at the hotel since Sun
day evening, having come from a visit to
her son, Lyon C Tyler, at Williamsburg,
Virginia, and was to have left
Richmond Monday on a visit to another
Son, on the James river, but feeling unwell
she kept her room. Tuesday at 11 o'clock;
she was taken with chij . Medical skill
proved of no avail. Mrs. Tyler leaves four
children Lyon C. Tyler, President of Wil
liam and Mary College, Va; Gardiner C. Ty
ler, who lives in Charles City County, Va

EuroH, she came to Washington with her
father in lMt.
A few weeks after their arrival they accep
ted an invitation from President Tyler to at
tend a pleasure excursion down the river on
the war steamer Princeton. The festivities
on this occasion were sadly marred by the
explosion of a gun on the vessel, causing
loss of life. Among those killed was Miss
(iardiner.s father. His body was taken to
tho White House, and Miss Gardiner was
thrown a great deal into the society of the
President. President Tyler's first wife had
died shortly after he entered the White
House, and the President paid Miss Gardiner
marked attention, which resulted in their
marriage In New York city, Juno 20, 1M1.

dent Tyler's term she presided over the
White House with tact, grace and dignity.
A fter the 4th of march, IMS, Mrs. Tyler re

ride at her mother's residence on Cost la on
Hill, Staten Island. Afterseveral years resi
dence there she removed to Richmond, Va.,
trhcre she died. Mrs. Tyler was a Roman
tatholic in religion. ,
RIOTOUS STRIKERS.

TOW If.
trusr.D out of
When the 8:4" a. m. train arrived at Home
stead, la., from Pittsbu'g, Thursday, there
were gathered .oO men who had heard that
Carnegie, Phipps it Co. intended to put new
men into the mill. Their suspicions that
these men would arrive on the train above
mentioned were fully confirmed. On the
train were thirty-four men of all nationali
ties, who hud been hired in Pittsburg by Au
guM Geisler, to go to work in the Homestead
mill. When they were noticed in the
curs a yell went up from the crowd that star
tled those, in tho car, and many of them
made a rush for tho door to get out. They
were disappointed, however, as the doors
were locked. This only served to Intensify
the excitement of tho n.en In the car, and so
great was their fear that four of them open
ed windows and Jumped out into the arms ol
the strikers, due man led his coat In the
train, and says he had tit in money in it.
The coat was telegraphed for but it is doubt
ful if ho will ever see his money. After tho
four men got out the train
moved on and stopped directly in front
of the works. Here tho doors of the cur
were unlocked und tho men let out. Some
of the nioro excited strikers began firing
stones at the windows of the passenger cur
ill which tho men were. Sevuu lights of
glass were broken. One man wus hit above
the eye. He received uu ugly wound. The
strikers deplore the action of their men in
(toning tho car. They (ear this may induce
the railroad company to work ugainst the m
In the strike. The new arrivals had scarcely
reached the ground until they were in the
hands of the strikers who insisted that they
should nol go into the wrks. After the
train pulled out tlm lueil were marched
down tho railroad through tho town ami
warned not to return. All of them walked
back to Pittsburgh.
CnxTtucr Ltnou. The provisions of the
United States statutes ugainst the importa

und circulars have been dispatched by tho
steamship linos to emigration agents in the
interior, to instruct prospective passengers
us to tlio answers they must make to impor
tant questions propounded by th
U. S. authorities, on their arrival
at American ports. It is safe to
say that tliu law will lie successfully evaded
henceforth. Tlio lines running to Canadian
ports anticipate a largely increased business
in the future, ami many who wero refused
a landing ut New York and lloston have
taken this indirect route to the States. The
principal increase to their trulllo will, how
ever, come from assisted migration, which
is assuming serious proportions. Tho un
desirable classes sent uway from Ireland and
England by poor law guardians and the
societies formed for that purMise ure directed
to Quebec, and thence across the lino,
thus evading uny injury as to their statu.

The fifth annual report of the Civil Ser
vice Commission was transmitted to Con
gress by President Cleveland on the ltd of
March, but as that was the day before the
close of the session the pressure and the
confusion of business prevented the publica
tion of nfany of its most Interesting fea
tures. Perhaps the most Interesting exhibit is
that showing the kind of education of suc
cessful and unsuccessful applicants. It ap
pears from this that the graduates of the
public schools are Just about as successful,
and in some cases more successful, thsn the
graduates of colleges. Taking the year end
ing June3o, lwt, the total number of per
sons examine.! who had public school edu
cation only was 0,81)6, of whom 6,005
passed aud 8,700, or 40 3-10
per cent failed. This showing
Is slightly, but not very much In favor of
the college educated. The figures for the
first year of the system showed, however, an
opposite state of facts, the per cent of failures
among the public schools graduates being
BJ o-IU and among the college gradates 30 2-
m t.. -i . i-i . .
in uu ut-ariiiieiiim nervico nere at
Washington the greatest proportion of fall
tires is almost uniformly among the col

Mr. Lyman comments thus npon these
statistics: "Those w ho have had but a few
months' or a few years' schooling at a coun
try district school, as well as thoss who
have been through all the grades of the best
city schools, are alike classed as having re
ceived a common school education,
the larger jor cent of failures among com
M.titoraof this class does not, therefore,
prove anything of value concerning the
quality of what may bo called a full
common school education nor concerning
the character or difficulty of the examina
tions of the Coinmlsion. What is shown is
that a very large per cent, of all those claim
ing to have received a common school edu
cation are able to pass the examinations
creditably and, when appointed, to do public
work satisfactorily, proving that the average
common school education Is adequate for in
telligent and useful citizenship."
BULLIVAS ARRE8TED.
When the northbound Louisville and
Nashville train pulled into Nashville at 10:3.1
Thursday morning a crowd of people surged
around the car to see John L. Sullivan, whe
was known to be oil board. A rumor soon
htalned circulation that a requisition was In
the bands of the police, several of whom had
boarded the car.
Some discussioa and Anally a struggle
was seen In the car, and an officer reached
over with handcuffs in his hands and, seiz
ing the slutger's arm. pulled hint out into
the aisle of the car. Sullivan resisted.
After a brlof struggle Sulliuau was taken
from the car and bustled to a carriage. In
the senilis he drew back to knock down a
policeman, when Chief Clark stuck a pistol
In his face and told him If he struck he
(Clark) would kill him. The o Incurs next
grabbed Charley Johnson, of Rrooklyn,
Sullivan's backer, who resisted furiously,
but finally began to cry with pain.
During all this scrimmage Muldoon sat
quiotly by and was uudisturbod. Mixe
Cleary, Sullivan's other second, bid in the
excitement, and another tuau, named Lynch
jumped off the train. Ouly Johnson and
Sullivan wore detained, though the others
were wanted.
The arrest was made by authority of a
telegram front Governor Lowry, of Missis
sippi, to Mm Nashville Chief of Po'ice. Sul -
livuu has retained ex-Attorney Guiieral
Wa.slilugtu, who says tlie olllcars went bi
yo.id tbuir authority uu 1 cannot hold their
aicu.
Counsel discussed at length, and finully
Judge McAllister rendered his decision. He
was very emphatic In his opinion that to
hold Sullivan longer would be a most arbi
trary act on the part of the court; that the
nllicera had arrested him without warrant
or authority of law; that misdemeanors
were not extraditable by the rulings of Ten
nessee courts and by precedents of Governnf

CROP REPORTS.
Crop reports received by tha Wheeling
Iteqitter from the counties of West Virginia,
Eastern Ohio and Western Pennsylvania say
tho hay crop is unusually fine throughout
the State. Outs aro injured by the rust in
few sections. Wheat is more promising than
it has been for years. The continued wet
weather has retarded the corn in many
counties, and It will be only a fair average
crop. The potato crop will be very largo.
Perries have been plentiful, and aches and
apples will be abunduut in a few counties,
but tlio crop will average lower than lust
fear.
