The Rates of Freight.

.IalI E8I g BUFFALO, June Q.
Three large and enthusiastic meetings OF
canal boat owners were held in this city,
yesterday, for the purpose of raising the
rates of freight. The organization of a
society, to be known as "The Independent
Freight Carriers Union," was completed,
and a committee of ten appointed to draft
bylaws for the government of said union.
Articles of agreement to the following eff
feet were adopted, "We, the undersigned,
boat owners and masters, do hereby agree
not to load our boats at less than eight
cents on wheat and seven and half cents
on corn from Buffalo to New York, and
all other freight in proportion also, that
all boats now In port shall load in turn az
they arrived, provided they carry the
amount of the order; but the boat giving
away her turn shall have the first order
that fits her." For the support of the
union, owners and masters are subjected to
a small tax on the cargoes. One hundred
and twenty-five masters or owners, repre-
seniing 275 boats. signed the agreement
and other names are being added. The
organization will doubtless prove success

Steel Engravings.

Steel engravings are, next to oil paint
ings, the highest kind of pictorial art.
They preserve everything of fine paintings
except the color. While the price of fine
oil paintings place them beyond the reach
of many, steel engravings, by reason of
the great number of copies of the same pic
ture sold, are within the reach of nearly
everyone. Every parlor, no matter how
plainly furnished, has pictures of some
kind, good or bad, costly or cheap, accord
ing to the wealth or taste of the owner.
One fine work of art in room Is worth
more for the education OF the taste than
any number of inferior pictures.
Rutland people have an opportunity now
such as is seldom offered them of examin-
ing and selecting from collection of fine
engravings Spauldipg & Co. have receiv-
ed number from Goupils art gallery in
New York, which will remain short time
here, to give those wishing them an oppor
tunlty to purchase. The engravings range
in price from five to thirty dollars, some OF
the most beautiful in design, though OF
small size, being at the lower price. Among
the finest are two companion pieces, "Th'
Pilgrims Watching the Return OF the May
flower" representing John Alden and Pris
ella standing on the beach, and the vesse
a speck on the ocean and a picture repre-
senting the same persons after that crue
winter of famine watching for vesse
from home.

God, friendship, unity and true christian chart
ty to his brother members and fellow men.
Resolved, That to the family OF our deceased
brother, we extend our deepest sympathy, and
while we know that their loss on earth is ire
parable indeed, they have at least the consof-
ing hope that he has gone to better and
happier world

sented to the family OF the deceased, and be
published In the Rutland DAILY GLOBE and
Herald, also in the Hibernian and Irish World.

Almost a Fire.

Satan always finds some mischief for
idle hands to do, so he set it into the hearts
of some little ones, Saturday morning, to
start fire in some straw and other COM
bustibes near the gas house, just to see
how it would burn. AS it commenced to
blaze up, good and strong, young lady,
passing that way, noticed the fire and the
children, and urged the latter at once to
go home and inform their parents of their
pranks that the flames might be extinguish-
ed before any damage was done. With a
full knowledge of what they deserved, and
was in store for them, they said they were
afraid to go home, because "Mother would
give us good licking" The young lady
perscyered in her efforts, sufficient force
of men soon assembled, and the fire wai
squelched. AS the fire was IN close prox
unity to other combustible materials, ant
everything being as dry as finder, the
young lady doubtless saved Rutland from
another destructive conflagration.

THE MINING DIFFICULTIES.
The Harmless Military-M Violence

| r.. PoTTsvILLE, Pa, June G.
In addition to Downing's coliery, re-
ported as being stopped, Davlss colliery
was also visited and the men at work com
PEELED to suspend. Considerable excite
ment prevailed at Minersville, Friday, the
men passing through that place on their
way to Wolf Creek to stop the collieries in
that vicinity. At Shenandoah, a party of
men IN ambush attacked the Waterman at
the Centennial colliery. He Immediately
returned the fire, and, he says, wounded
one OF the party. The presence of the
military infpires more confidence. A mass
meeting of workingmen was held in the
afternoon, and it was resolved to continue
the strike, being guaranteed money, provi-
sions, ETC., by the Wyoming and Luzerne
men, who are to resume work at ten per
cent. reduction. The meeting was large.
AT Mahanoy City bodies of men were seen
lurking on the outskirts of the town.
Another train was placed at the disposal of
the troops, should it be found necessary to
move them. John WEIGH, president of the
miners union, and John Siney, president
OF the national union, arrived at Mahanov
City, Friday, accompanied by other promi-
nent members of the workingmen's benev-
client association. At Mt. Carmel an at.
tempt was made 10 burn j. IIolt's hotel.
The fire was discovered in time to save the
building. Coal oil had been thrown around
the premises There is much uneasiness
there The force o.. watchmen at the
breakers has been increased. in anticipation
of attempts being made to fire them. Gen.
Lott has gone to Harrisburg.
SATURDAYS CONDITION.
Everything was on Saturday morning Ie-
ported quiet at Mahanoy city and Shenan-
doah, where the troops are stationed, and
no change having yet been made nor any
portion of the military sent to other sec
lions of the disturbed region, as was
thought necessary Friday night. 1t is
thought three more of the raiders have died
since Thursdays engagement, of wounds
received in a skirmish below the town on
that day. The presence of troops is regard
ed with much disfavor by the mining popu
lation. A majority of the citizens and fdsl-
ness men have petition in circulation and
are obtaining large number OF slgnatures.
They ask that the troops may DE retained
there at least two weeks. The petition will

to satisfy this supposition the ruins were
thoroughly searched as soon as day light
but
NO TRACES OF HUMAN REMAINS COULD BE

When it was found he had left his house
that night, shortly before the fire broke
out, and had not been seen since, his alb
sence, taken in connection with the fact
that he had previously accused son of
Mr.. Greene of having interfercd in his af-
fairs concerning a young lady named Sa-
rah Wilkins, and had used threatening
language, it was surmised that he was the
man who fired the barn and shot Mr..
Greene. Subsequent discoveries proved
this suppcsition to be correct. About noon
the report of pistol was heard in the rear
of the barns of N. L. Skinner, who lives
about thirty rods from Mr.. Grccncs place.

WITH HIS THROAT CUT,
and bullet hole in each temple, one re-
yolver lying by his side and another in his
hand, he having fred both shots at the
same time. A butcher knife and fresh
blood were found little distance from the
body, which showed that he had made a
previous attempt to take his life by cutting
his throat. An inquest has been COM
menced, and the testimony of Mr..
Green and Miss Wilkins has been taken.
The impression is that Weeks has been
partially insane for some time past owing
to his inability TO gain the affections of
Miss Wilkins. The affair has created great
excitement and thousands have visited the
scene of the tragedy to-day. X.
