Frightful Murders in York County, Pa
Three Persons KilIed-MOney the no
tive, &c.
Tho Harrisburg telegraph of yesterday contains
the following account Of horrd tragedy near Lewis
burg, York county, Pa:
We have just learned the particulars of terrible
tragedy that has been enacted some three miles from
Lewlsourg, ork county resulting IN the murder Of
circumstances. residing in Warrenton township. at
the place ind Gated above and whose family consist
ed of himself, his wife and granddaughter, of
about fourteen years of age. 1t was supposed Mr..
S. had considerable money in his possession and it
seems that some fend in human shape determined
to secure this filthy lucre. even at the sacrifice Of
several lives, On Sunday night the monster visited
the house of Mr.. Squibb, and there murdered the
whole family The terrible affair not discovered
until yesterday morning, when the neighbors found
Mr. S. lying on tue porch OF his house, his body bear
ing the marks of no less than fourteen cuts that had
been made thereon with knife in the hands of the
murderer.
fThe old mans life was not extinct but he was in
sensible, and lived only until last evening. Inside of
the house was the form of Mrs. Squibb. horribly
beaten and cut. She too, senseless and there is
not the least hope entertained of her recovery while
it is highly probable that the vital spark had fled ere
this reaches the eye of the reader. Near by lay the
body of the granddaughter cold in death. 1t was
also stabbed, beaten and bruised. From the fact
that all the victims were found divested of their
shoes. it is believed the murder committed when
they were preparing to retire. which, according to
their CUSTOM must have been at an early hour in the
evening. Upon search of the premises being made
yesterday, about $3.50 iR money found, which the
murderer failed to lay his hands upon but married
daughter who lives in the vicinity states that it was
supposed Mr.. Squibb had 500 $500 in his posses
sion, and it probable that the robber obtained $3.50
or S5O- small recompense for his guilt as an assas-
sin. It is not known who committed the crime, but
he will yet be brought to justice, as murder will
out"
The funeral of the granddaughter took place at
ten O'Clock to- day, and attended by vast con-
course of citizens of the neighborhoOd among whom
the most intense excitement prevails in consequence
of the brutal murder that has just been perpetrated
in their midst.
Miss Caroline E. Squibb, daughter of the mur-
dered man. recently resided with MRS Streeter, No.
3Sl street, Washington city, and dispatches have
been sent to notify her of the murder but the opera
tor reports that she has removed and cannot be
found. t..'
An Irishman named Donovan has been arrested on
suspicion of having committed the deed and lodged
in Jail.

Coal DIGGERs STRIKE.-Nearly one thousand coal
diggers assembled on the West Common at Allegheny
City on Monday morning, to consider the practica-
blllty OF demanding an advance TO five cents per
bushel for all merchantable coal. The dggers were
all disposed to act reasonably and abide the decision
of the meeting, whether favorable or otherwise
They represented nearly all the principal coal mines
in Allegheny county, and uniform in the char
acter of their grievances Every one of them in
sisted that the present rate, which varies from two
and hail to four cents per bushel is Inadequate TO
meet their current domestic expenses. They claim
that II all the coal they dig out of the mines was paid
Tor at reasonable rate. they would not strike for
higher pay. 1t seems. according to their statement
that out OF every hundred and twenty-five
bushels Of COAL they receive pay for only about four
hfths. Ihls Is owing to the method adopted by
some Of paying only for such coal is screened.
The screens usually very large so that coal Of
merchanable quality, in great quantities. is delivered
free of the expense OF digging, the miners receiving
pay for the large coal which will not pass through
the screens Again, they stated to our reporter that
the coal cars are of capacity greater than is legal
These cars ought not to hold twenty five bushels
bu in several cases they had been enlarged to even
thirty-fye and forty bushels of coal They com
nained also that they are not allowed the priyiIega
of measuring their own work. This, they allere is
done by parties in the paid interest of the
of the mines, who make short returns Tins in a
variety of ways, it is claimed, they are preventeS
from receiving fair return for labor actually per
formed. In order to Obyiate any difficulty in the
future, arising from these causes they now demand
five cents per oushe for all merchanable coal without
regard to IT'S size agreeing not ask any return for
slack coal."-Pahs6urc Commercial.
