THIRTY THOUSAND MINERS TO BE THROWN
OUT OF WORK.-A Bethlehem (Pa.) dis
patch says: "The coal mining and trans
portation companies Of the Schuykill,
Lehigh, Wyoming and Lackawanna re-
giOns have for long time been planning
a suspension at their collieries, but no
positive arrangements for stoppage have
been decided upon until just now. The
Delaware and Hudson Coal Company, one
of the heaviest coal and carrying corpora
tions in the Lackawanna and Wyoming
coal fields, has been the first one of the
great companies 70 initiate a suspension
movement. Work has been stopped at all
the mines of the company, the numerous
breakers are now silent, and between $4,000
and $4,000 workingmen, colliers and their
assistants, are thrown out of employment.
1t is understood the suspension will con-
tinue for an indefinite period. Several Of
the other prominent operating companies
have also followed the same policy. The
Philadelphia and Reading Company has
made partial cessation of operations. BY
the suspension between $4,000 and 10000
men employed in the mines of the different
companies are entirely or partially unem
ployed.

THE PRIZE RING MURDER.-The trial of
the five men who were indicted for COM
plicity in the Walker Weeden prize fight,
at Pennsgrove, last August, which resulted
in the death of Philip Koster, alias
Walker, was concluded last Wednesday at
Salem, New jersey with a verdict against
all of the five men who were under indict
ment. The excitement has rather in
creased than abated. The court room was
densely crowded.
The prisoners-James Weeden, the sur
viving principal in the fight; Sam. Collyer,
second; "Fiddler" Neary, Richard Good
win, commonly known as Spring Dick, and
Johnny Clark-were seemingly Indifferent.
The summing up was begun on the part of
the defence, and soon after noon the case
was given to the jury. They were absent
only very short time, and returned
verdict of manslaughter against all the
prisoners. The countenances of the
prisoners fell little, just sufficiently to be
noticeable. They had scarcely expected
such a verdict, and were evidently not pre-
pared for it. The counsel for the prisoners
made a motion for a new trial in each case.
The motion was asked on the ground that
the evidence showed there was no inten-
ton to kill Walker; that all the prisoners
went to Pennsville for a fair and square
fight, and that Walker would not have
died if he had received proper medical
treatment after the fight. Judge Reed,
| however, denied the motion without hesita-
ton. Weeden, Goodwin and Collyer were
sentenced to six years imprisonment each
in the Trenton Penitentiary. The remain
ing two prisoners, Clark and Neary. were
sentenced to an imprisonment of two years.

There is very bad blood between the
| freshmen and sophomores Of Brown Uni
versity. The sophomores were victorious
at football but were ANONYMOUSLY defeat
ed at base ball. On Saturday the freshmen
gathered on the campus, brandshed cane,
and challenged their rivals to class rush
The sophomores were discreet, and the
noisy youngsters finally RETIRED after groan
ing until they were blue in the face. The
cane was cut up into buttons, and these
were fashioned into pins, and last Monday
morning every freshman wore one on hi;
breast when he went to chapel. Thi:
aroused the ire of the sophomores, and
skirmishing went on right and left. Or
Tuesday afternoon both classes mustered in
full force for rush, and the campus wore
a warlike aspect. Before hostilities were
opened, however, President Robinson ap
peared on the ground and suspended hal
a dozen sophomores. A meeting was helC
without delay, and a committee was ap
pointed to wait upon the President and t
suggest the suspension of the whole clas
rather than q small fraction of it, as the,
were equally to blame. The President VIII,
somewhat resembles DR.. Wayland in hi
methods of government, grimly Responded
that if any Of them felt guilty they coult
CO. but if they went they would not b
allowed to return. He also forbade til
wearing of the cane pins by freshmen unde
the penalty of immediate expulsion.

RELEASE OF jim FIsK's MUDERER.-The
four years sentence of Edward S. Stokes,
for the shooting of James Fisk, Jr., expired
on Saturday last, and he was released from
Auburn prison. He exchanged his prison
garb for a new suit of citizens clothes, and
at o'clock was surrendered to his friends.
Stokes and his party took a smoking car
to Syracuse, and there entered a drawing
room car and went to Albany, where din
ner was served in the Delavan House. On
the way to New York the platforms at the
stations were crowded by persons who
wanted to see Stokes. Women stared at
him as though for dear life, and one aged
female presented him with a card on which
was printed "Come to Jesus" Stokes
ordered two bottles of champagne at Utica,
and the party drank his health. He said
that he was not afraid of any person al
attack upon him in New York. Hemeans
to go into business at once, having pur-
chased patent asphaltum pavement, which
he says is something that no city can dc
without. Stokes is gray-haired and wears q
brown mustache and goatee.

Blaine of Maine at the top of the heap-as
usual
On the whole the American people believe
in fair play. And they do like pluck.
Threatening the publication of private let
ters doesn't seem so smart Boston notion
for breaking down Presidential candidate as
it did.
So the ex-Rebels on the committee were
going to break down Blaine if they could,
and Proctor Knott was willing to suppress
dispatches that cleared him of the Infamous
charges under which he was resting-till
after Cincinnati. Very well; Cincinnati is
likely 10 take the hint. Republicans will
appreciate the Democratic anxiety to keep
Blaine from being nominated.

THE rural reporter, when he really gets
down to his work and hurres about it, is not
to be despised. Witness the following ex-
tract from the extra edition of the Midland
Mich Independent last Sunday:
And now appeared one of the most terrible
and magnificent spectacles it was ever our lot
to witness. The whole broad and high front of
the Internati onal Hotel was wrapped-as in
its winding-s heet-in one lurid mass of flame,
which, seemingly as in mockery of the puny
powers of man and his appliances to stay its
course, stopped toward the earth in the eddy of
the wind with hurtling sound as of demoniac
laughter, and then, swerviDg and veering as if
in disdaip, tossing its head it arose towering
almost to the very clouds and-ab, it needed no
fervid Dantean imagination then to discover
within the fIinges of that gilt-edged hell the
glaring eye-balls, yea, the very claws and
bloody hair of the demon of the fl f1ames-with
one fell swoop it hurled itself across the broad
street over upon and wound itself around, fas-
tened its fearful clutches, took possession of
and invested the whole immense building
known as the Harris Block.

BUT thirteen Democratic votes were re-
corded in the negative on the question of al
lowing the banking and currency committee
to report at any time. AS the object of the
resolution is to permit the committee to re-
port in favor of the repeal of the specie re-
sumption act. it is evident that the Demo-
cratic hard-money strength in the House is
almost too small TO be counted.

Mr.. BLAINE appeared in the judiciary
committee Tuesday and renewed the charge
he made in the House. He declared that
the records of the committee corroborated
the charge that Knott, the chairman, had
packed the committee with two rebel gener-

nounced the committee for their partisan

No wonder the ex-Confederate house is in
haste to leave Washington. The sharpest of
them must know see that the intelligence of
the country regards its investigating CON-
mittees as political bandits, who take the
most outrageous means to blacken the names
of political opponents. Proctor Knott's
committee and the Naval committee which
made its malignant assault upon Secretary
Robson, (aided by one Republican, are
deserving of the censure of all who prize fair
