THR IK VEST1CIATI0M.
-The leulslatlvo committee appointed to
make inquiry inlo the conditions that pre
vail in the anthracite coal fields, practically
cloned its work, se far AS the taking of testi
mony i concerned, in this part of the region.
Tin' -I'sMoii held at Pottaville yesterday Were
tlu' niittt important in many rcpecUof any
that hint preceded them. The IIkrai.u,
which is nothing if not enterprising anil
itlwiiys up to date in furnishing Its thousands
of readers with the news when it Is sews,
nnticiputrd the Importance or yesterday's
sessions of the committee, from the fact that
the gcner.il manager and other high officiate
of the r. & It. C. A I. Co., together with
thine connected with other coal companies,
hii 1 been subpoenaed to appear before the
si .ill- solium, ami dispatched one of lit stall' to
the county neat with instructions to report
the proceedings verbatim.
The result was the Hkiiamj appealed
nimn the streets last evening with the only
stenographic report of the proceedings, lead
in;; ull other publications in this respect; in
f.ict, our report surpassed even that of our
PotKville contemporaries having the advant
ages of location. In contrast to tho enter
prise of the Muuilo, which was fieely com
mented upon last night, might le noted that
a local contemporary did not know there was
an investigation, a it failed even to make
mention of the fact. The Mi:Ua1.I is truly
leiding some df Its eoutcuiporarles :i "kill-
ni;" race, especially the "amateur" jour
nalist-,.
-I'lu- committee will v'slt Wilkebarro
n t iu ik, and the following w-ek Will ex
amine u itnesces at Scrauton, mill close their
iim-digaMuM. They will then prepare and
submit their report to the Legislature on
M.ty ltKh. What the nature of that leport
w ill be, or what lcmedy they will suggest to
ri huve the dcpiCBsioii that exist ut present,
is merely problematical. The members oi
the committee have apparently made an
In. nest ctfort to gain all the. information
pi, siblc bearing upon tho subject under in
vistig.ttion. Alter bearing tho testimony ol
the miuo workers, they finally extended
th ir inquiry and called bofore them the
oiln i ils of the coal companies mid secured
iulurimitioli not obtainable from their
employes.
Wo still hold to tho opinion expressed a!
the time the committee was appointed, that
little, if anything, would bo developed by
this junketing trip that was. not already
known to all oliservlng ptoplo in tho coal
regions, and especially tho representatives
from this county in tho halls of tho I.egisia
, -A'tiore elected and paid well for pro
m g the interests of their constituents,
groat majority of whom are mine
milkers. That there is an unusual degree
of privation and sutTeriug among the labor
ing classes, and that the great army of men
employed in and about the mines havo had
work only a few days iu the week; that
their ii come ii necessarily small,
that the majority of them havo
ely earned sutlicient to procure tho
nii'cssarie.s of life all this tho committee
has learned after an expensive and uncalled
for inquiry into a condition that needed not
a legislative probe to make it public. The
members of the committee aro not responsible
for their appointment, and tboy aro no doubt
boniotiu their endeavor to Improve the
present conditions, but what can they do,
other than record what is already known V
II the committee can dovise some means
whereby the men of the coal regions can he
given loiijer days of work and more of them,
they will have accomplished that which will
entitle them to the lasting grutltudo of the
miners and those depending upon them. Hut
(an the committee do this?
-The consensus of opinion among those
well in formed on the question, and which is
bin ne out by the evidence submitted to the
committee, is that the great evil can be
found in the excess of labor too many look
lug for tlie oue job coupled with the poor
doiuaud for anthracite coal. One hundred
iin u cannot prosper when there Is only suf
ficient work for fifty. This view of tho
iii'slion brings forth the advisability of more
stiintieiit immigration laws, and the com
niit'ee iu its report will very likely lay great
st ress on this feature, and rccoiinueud that
t'oiiKress be appealed to to at omie adopt
measures to prohibit tho great influx to our
shores.
It will be rememlieretl that when the
committee visited Shenandoah and Mahanoy
ity the employes of the leading coal com
pany in this region were plied with questions
as to their knowledge of tbe cost of plat ing a
ton of coal on tbe cars at the breaker. These
questions wen propounded by the repreen
tame from' this district, with tbe evident in
tention of creating the impression that the
vMtuesses dare not furnish tbe information,
ami that tbe bead official of the oouipauy
w oalil not enlighten tbe members uf the com
mittee on tbe subject. Naturally the em
ployts refused to divulge what knowledge
they possessed on the subject, referring the
ins est igator to tho higher officials of the
company,
The examination of the witnesses yester
day entirely dispelled this false impres
sion, and tbe answers bearing upon the cost
of mining coal were glvea without reserva
tion on tbi part of those official who were in
a position to furnish accurate information.
The testimony of U. C. Luther, general super
intendent of the J. U. C. & I. Co., wo full
and complete, and he made no effort to con
ci ul anything from tbe oowuiilteo having
a Inuring upon the subject uuder investiga
tion. Hi- aniviis were eapliclt a to the
actual cost of a ten of coal, tbe system of mlu
niKund gem lal st itisthsjof thin Important in
.iiisiry. Hi testimony really left uotbiug
molt lo In- said on the subject of production,
ami disproved the impression created by
i eitain persons that order were issued by the
nffldlrtlf to thatf ttlbofdlnatel M wlUfbold
this Information.
The testlmouy of yesterday, while the
moat important yet elicited, only confirms
wlint the 1Ikbm.ii has previously said on this
subject. The limited demand for the pro
duct of the mine ucccssitate restriction,
canting many Idle days and uitH'h want and
suffering. All this was well known, and
needed lint tho present junketing tiip to
bring it to the attention of the Legl daturc.
Let the latter now apply the remedy, if it
cun. and Mint as early as possible.
Satiility especial.

An unseasonably warm day, before change nf win-

At no time is a blood purifying medicine more

If your blood is not right ( and whose is ?) you are

A course of Hood's Sarsaparilla begun now and

rugged health, so that you can thoroughly enjoy all
the pleasures of the coming summer.
Pimples on the Face.

apprehension at the treasury depart

calling: attention to the fact that dur

there has been an annual outward
movement of gold from this country
to Europe usually beginning In April
or 'May and ending In midsummer,
and a corresponding return movement
during the winter months. The heav
iest monthly exportation of gold In
the last eight years have occurred
as follows: June, 1889, $18,000,000; July,

In infancy for want of physical stamina.
A weak or unhealthy woman is unfitted to
fulfil her pnrt in perpetuating the race: she
is unequal to the demands of motherhood
and wifehood, she is robbed of her natural
womanly attractiveness.
Manv a woman is cheated of life's choicest

New Yor, May 1. It. tl. Dun & Coa
weekly review of trade tays: In spite
of moderate Improvement In most of
the great industries business Is disap
pointing. Expectation of the speedy
end of the war In Europe through
Turkish victory have helped to de
press grain. Demands of Austria and
China have caused exports of $6,500,
000 frold, merchandise Imports are
greatly Increased and flnll action of
congress on the revehue question
seems more remote.
The exports of gold would not have
much Influence If there weTe not an ex
traordinary Increase In merchandise
Imports and some decrease In exports
from New York, large for the last
week and 5 per cent for April. Im
ports have Increased about 60 per cent
over last year for the week, and (or
four wedks have been 30 per cent
greater. At Boston Imports of wool
have been extraordinary, and at Phil
adelphia they have amounted for tho
month to $1,278,000. The thought that
this abnormal Increase may continue
as long an action on the revenue bill
Is deferred tends to affect exchange,
but the main Influence at present Is
the exceptional demand for reconstuc
tion of the Attstrlnn monetary sys
tem and for Japan,
Rradstreets' review says: The more
conspicuous features of trade are less
satisfactory, Including moderate re
actions In prices of staples, a falling
off In the volume of transactions In
various lines, continued slow collec
tions and less favorable conditions In
the Iron, steel, cotton and some other
Industries. There Is less demand for
staple varieties of Iron and steel, mak
ers reporting trouble In securing spec
ifications for contracts on hand. The
outlook Is for the shutting down of
some furnaces In the Pittsburg dis
trict. The three months' restriction
of output In cotton goods hrtB ended,
nnd .mills will now run on full time.
There were 214 buslneea failures
throughout the Unl States this
week, compared with 216 last week,
254 In the week one year ago, 206 In
1895, 179 in 1804 and 248 In the last week
of April, 1893. There arc 31 failures
reported In Canada this week.
