MOBBED BY STRIKERS
Tube Workers Driven Out
at McKeesport.
MCKKKSPORT, Pa., June6.—Theexpected
trouble at the National Tube Works has
occurred. Last night a mob of 5,000
strikers broke down the entrance to the
mill yard and drove the workmen em
ployed in the various departments out of
the plant. As the men were driven out
of the works they were surrounded hv
another mob of strikers on the outside and
beaten with clubs and chased through the
central part of the city. Several welders
crossed the Monongabela river. They were
pursue 1 by the strikers down the river. ,
One of the men was caught and severely
stabbed by his pursuers. His condition is
critical.
The strikers intended fro intercept, the
men when they came out of the works at
6 o'clock and try ami induce them to join
their ranks. The officials of the company
anticipated a IUOVO of this kind and had a
dining room erected in the works where
the men at work could get their meals
without leaving the place.
A foreigner came out of the shops shortly
after 0 o'clock. He was halted by the strik
ers.
The man drew a knife and in an instant
at least 20 strikers jumped on him and
would have killed him, but for the inter
ference of police officers.
At 7:30 o'clock the mob was increased to
6,000. They broke down the entrance to the
works and drove the men at work out as
related above.
The greatest excitement prevailed
throughout the city and the mayorordered
all the saloons to close.
Charles Maul in and Joo Koborky, two of i
the men beaten by the mob, are maimed for
life and internally injured.
Councilman Watson was mistaken for |
one of the non-union men and was badly
beaten by the strikers.
The mob stopped a street car and took
oil a man who had also received a severe
drubbing. No one was killed, but many
of the non-union workers had narrow es
capes at the hands of the angry mob.
It is reported that deputies are coming
from Pittsburg, and the strikers have
pickets out to intercept them.
There were 240 of the old employes in the
mill when the raid was made.
FIGHTING THE LORDS.
Unanimous Action oi'the National Res
form Union.
LONDON, June o.—The conference of the
National Reform union, a movement in
favor of the abolition of the house of
lords or at least a considerable abridgement
of the power of that body, was opened
here with Hon. Philip James Stanhope,
M. P., in the chair. After the preliminary
work of organizing the conference, Mr.
Labouchere submitted a resolution that
whenever the house of lords should reject a
bill that had been passed by the house of
commons it would only be necessary for I
the latter body to signify its approval of j
the measure by a formal vote, when the ■
bill would become a law. In proposing !
the resolution, Mr. Labouchere said that j
lie himself was in favor of the abolition of I
the house of lords, root and branch, hut, to j
be practical, they must first see what they
were likely to accomplish. The house of
lords, he said, was un irresponsible and
pernicious assembly, which was opposed
to the elementary principles of self-gov- j
eminent, and therefore it ought to be
swept out of existence. H. J. 1). Burnie, '
M. P., made a speech seconding the resolu
tion of Mr. Labouchere, and it was adopted
by a unanimous vote. Sir Charles Dilke
introduced a resolution that the franchise
ought to rest upon the personal fftnessof the
voter alone, and not depend upon the pos
session of property or the occupation of
premises; also the districts should pay the I
election expenses and the state pay mem- [
hers of the house of commons and order
second ballots.

galleries of the riding hall were packed I
full of spectators to witness the antics of !

lino exhibition of horsemanship. Many of
the feats performed by the cadets, such as
mounting and dismounting while the j
horses were on a fast gallop, were very ex
citing, and two or three of the army girls
almost fainted away at tha thrilling per
formance. The bareback riding and hur
dle acts were particularly fine. The board
of visitors were highly elated and warmly
congratulated Captain Craig upon his suc
cess as instructor in cavalry tactics. This

determine 1 not to recognize the Miners'

Indications of Surrender
on the Miners' Part.
COLUMRUB, 0., Junefl. —The minors* na
tional strike committee adopted the fol
lowing resolution, late last night, after be
ing in executive session from 10 o'clock in
the morning:
Whereas, It is evident that the national
convention of miners ami operators cannot
be had for the purpose of effecting a gen
eral settlement of the present differences
over mining rates to be paid for the next
year, and
Whereas, The operators in nearly all the
districts have expressed a willingness to
meet within their respective milling dis
tricts, the representatives of the miners
for the purpose of adjusting said prices,
Resolved, That we, the members of the
executive national committee and the
district presidents, to whom was delegated
the power to act for the miners at the last
convention of the United Mine Workers
of America, declare our willingness to meet
with the operators of the mines in the
various districts, to attempt, and if pos
sible to effect a settlement of mining prices.
Resolved, that the conferences of repre
sentatives of the miners and operators of
the different districts be arranged for and
held not later than Saturday, June 9.
The following conferences will be held
on that date:
Central and northern Pennsylvania, at
Altoona; western Pennsylvania, Ohio, In
diana and eastern Illinois, at Columbus,
O.; central and southern Illinois, at East
St. Louis; Kentucky and Tennessee, at Jel
lieo; Arkansas, Indian Territory, Missouri

Mercer counties, Pa., at Mercer; Lntrobe,
at Latrobe, Pa.; Ohio River mines, at Pom
eroy; northeast Kentucky, at Central City,
j and Maryland nt time and place to be
1 agretd upon locally.
The resolution was opposed by both Pres
ident Mcßrido and Secretary Mcßryde.
Inasmuch as they have all along dec lared
that they would consent only to a national
settlement of thestrike the resolution looks
very much like a confession that the min
ers are beaten.
Convict Wallwitz's Case.
TRENTON, N. J., June o.—Judge Abbott
refused to grant an order for the exhum
ing of the body of James H. Lippincott,
i the state's prison koopor, for whoso mur
der convict Joseph Wallwitz is now under
sentence of death. Lippincott is buried
in a Philadelphia cemetery and his wife
opposes any further handling of his re
mains. Judge Abbett said the court was
absolutely without any power to order the
disinterment, but ho suggested that the
counsel for the condemned man go before
the court of pardons who, while consider
| ing an application for his pardon, could
and probably would ask the authorities of
Pennsylvania for permission in the inter
est of justice to take the body up. The
[ object of the proposed re-examination of
the body is to determine definitely whether
the bullet of the convict or one fired by a
deputy prison keeper killed Lippincott.

LONDON, June 6.—The coroner's inquest
upon the body of the street musician Bur
ton, whose death was caused by General

the ferrule of an umbrella Into his eye ou
| May 30, was closed, the jury finding a ver
j diet of manslaughter against Hewston. A
bystander named Bowering testified that
Burton's harp touched Hewston's arm
when the latter turned upon Burton and
spoke to him angrily. Words were ex-
I ( hanged. Hewston finally raised bis uin
( brellu and said: "I'll poke this into your
eye." Burton defied him and Hewston de
liberately jabbed the point of the umbrella ,
into his eye. One of Burton's follow-musi- j
clans (Pembor) declared on the witness
stand that the umbrella thrust was not
accidental, but was done deliberately.
Maney's Court Martial.

flying around Fort Snelliug that the find

, Washington, but the officers are not al
lowed to make any announcement to the
public in advance of the receipt of the
papers by the secretary of war, and have
I not done so. Whether or not the rumor is
I correct is not known, and probably grew
j out of the haste with which the court
j reached its decision.

TOBACCO CLAUSE NOW
Democrats Satisfied With
Their Work on Sugar.
WASHINGTON, June 6.—Democratic lead
ers in the senate express themselves us
greatly relieved now that the sugar sched
ule of the tariff bill is out of the way, and
they are naturally pleased with the day's
work, for their programme was carried out
on every point.
The work was completed after an in
tensely and exciting struggle. The fight
for the greater part of the day was, as it
had been during the preceding four daj s,
over the proposition to postpone the time
when the repeal of the sugar bounty is to
take effect from the Ist of July, 1894, to
the Ist of January, 1895.
it was carried by a vote of 38 to 31.
On this vote the populist senators, Allen
and Kyle, voted with the democrats, and
Mr. Puffer with the republicans. Mr.
Hill (dom., N. Y.) did not vote, and Mr.
Irby (deni., S. C.) was paired with Mr.
Dixon (rep., R. I.).
Mr. Manderson (rep., Neb.) offered an
amendment to continue the sugar bounty
in force until July, 1905. Rejected—yeas,
82; nays, 40. On this question Mr. Hill
voted with his party. Mr. Puffer (pop.,
Kan.) voted for the amendment; and Sen
ators Aileti and Kyle and the two Louis
iana senators (Messrs. JBlanclmrd and Cutl
ery) against it.
The next amendment offered by Mr. Man
derson was to reduce the sugar bounty
one-tenth each year from July 1, 1895, to
July 1, 1906, anil then to cease. It was
rejected—yeas, 34; nays, 37.
It was voted for by the populist sena
tors, Allen, Kyle and Peffer. Mr. Hill
did not vote.
Mr. M. aider son'B next amendment was
to confine the bounty to sugar from beets
and sorghum. Rejected—yeas, 31; nays, 89.
Mr. Peffer voted for it and Mr. Allen and
I Mr. Kyle against it. Mr. Hill did not
vote. The Louisiana senators (Messrs
Blancliard and Caffery) voted against it.
An amendment for free sugar was offered
by Mr. Peffer and was rejected—yeas, 20;
nays, 37; and one offered by Mr. Allison
(rep., la.) to make the sugar duty go into
effect with the passage of the bill was re
jected—yeas, 30; nays, 33.
This was the closest of all the votes.
Two of the populist senators (Kyle and
| Peffer) voted with Mr. Hill in supporting
| the amendment, and if the third populist
j (Mr. Allen) had cast his the same way, the
vote would have stood 31 to 82. Bui Mr.
I Allen voted in the negative,
j Finally the amendment of the finance
