A Probable Suspension Of Coal
Mining.

The advent of President Gowen, Of
the Philadelphia and Reading Rail
road, was the cause Of considerable
stir amongst the coal operators. Some
of the principal Of them announce that
it will be necessary to take some steps
to stiffsn up prices, and that they ex-
pect the Reading Railroad to cooperate
for this purpose. The recent advance
in freight was, said one Of these parties,
a very ll.advised measure, although
there is no indication that a retrograde
movement will be made towards the
old rates. In most grades of coal there
is comparatively small demand even for
manufacturers uses, while, owing to
the increase in the iron business, the
demand for broken coal is equal to the
production. From general canvass
Of the leading operators, it seems to be
almost certain that there will be sus-
pension for about two weeks during
September.

A Figh ting ParsOn,

Rev. Mr.. Kern, pastor of the German
Methodist church, Newark, n. j., and
founder of a foundling asylum, was
visited few days ago by German
who for weeks has received daily as
sistance from the minister. He sug-
gested to Mr.. Kern that he would be
glad to be committed to the Penitentiary,
80 that he might be a burden upon
the county instead Of being one to his
benefactor. The minister informed him
that he would procure commitment to
the county Jail, where he might be sup
ported without performing manual
labor. The proposition was thankfully
accepted, and Mr.. Kern wrote note to
Justice Otto requesting the eommittal
of the "bearer to Jail for such term as
the law provides for in cases of men
dicants." This note, with one dollar
bill and package..of tobacco, Mr.. Kern
handed to the German, with the re-
mark that he was sorry he could not do
more for him. The fellow after placing
the money and tobacco in his pockets,
suddenly assumed an air of indignation
and exclaimed $50 that's the kind
of man you are, ehl Commit a man
to Jail when he asks for something to
eat. I'll show this note all over this
city and let the people know how far
your charity goes" The Kew. Mr..
Kern quickly locked the do.r of the
room and called to his aid the school
teacher Of his parish. The two held
the mendicant while the money and
tobacco were taken from his pockets.
He was then released and Pastor Kern,
it is said, literally kicked the ungra-
cious scamp into the middle of the
street.
