Special Dfspatch to The Chicago Tribune.
PTrTsBuRG, Pa, Feb. IA serious break
occurred to-day in the ranks Of the striking
coa1-miners. at q meeting held at Walkers
Mills, on the Panhandle Railroad, large
number Of diggers agreed to cut loose from
the strikers and go to work on Monday or
Tuesday at the old rates,-three and half
cents. Information is also to the effect that
Secretary Jones has made his headquarters
at Mansfield, and is doing what he can
to stem the tide that is so strongly
setting against him and other ultra
supporters Of four cents OF no work.
Other railroad miners will hold
meeting on Monday, when action similar to
that Of the Pan Handle men Is anticipated. It
is now almost certain that all the pits will be
in operation before the end Of next week.
factureEs was held with Mr.. Rosenberg. the
Co., who proposed to fill the places Of the
striking operatives with Belgians, who would
pay their own way to the mines. The result
Of the conference Tas an agreement to en-
pley 500 Belgians, who agree to work for
less than the present wages, and who
will oring their families with them and pay
all exAenses. They are prepared to contract
for one year or more. The strikers are con-
hdent that as soon as the foreigners acquired
correct III understanding they will come over to
their side. Every attempt hitherto made to
Introduce foreign labor In coaldigging or
coke-burnme in this part Of the State has
only increased the difficulty, and the same re-
suit is looked lar in the case Of the Belglans.

Volyed, this power, like all other powers Of
government, is subject to constitutional linz

health OF the people Of the State are con

the exercise of this power are that such reg

He favors SchuEz's policy, that the Utes

raney for all the different bands to rendezvous
near the Agency, and grand powwow must

Special Dtspateh to The Chicago 4tfouns
! WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 7.-Emery A.
Sto1rs left here for Chicago tonight, the ar
| gument on the proposition to reduce the tariff
on steel rails having been concluded. There
is much speculation as to the fate of the bill
in the Committee. The advocates of the
! present tariff themselves even are not conf
dent that they will be able to prevent reduc-
ton Of the tax. Their hopes Of the defeat of
the bill, on the contrary, seem to rest in the
expectation that there will be such
diversity of opinion in the Committee
as to the point to which the tar
if shall be reduced that no action
whatever will be taken, in which event the
tbat law vii ssnd L. Thefs ls Is q much
decide for reduction, but it will scarcely be
as low as SO. The Indications seem to be
that there may be acompro1nise on about S14.
A decision is expected this week, and it
may be that the decision will divide along
party lines.
The Navy Department has ordered the
United States steamer Powhattan to leave
Norfolk for Havana to convey Gen.
Grant to Mexico: 4 large party of
Simon Cameron, has passed through here for
New Orleans, aid there are intimations that
this rarty may join Gen. Grant in Mexico.
THE INDIAN COssnss1oNERsH1p.
There has been no progress In the work OF
selecting z new Indian Commissioner, and
Secretary Schurz is credited with saying that
he intends to clean out the house before put
ting in new tenant This would appear to
indicate that he intends to await the inyesti-
cation which is about to be conducted by
Indian Commissioners, and into other mat
tiers connected with the Indian service.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 7.-Before the
Senate Exodus Committee to-day Leonard
G. A. Hackney, Prosecuting Attorney for the
district in which SheIbyvilfe, Ind, where he
lives, Is located, testified that tWenty-sfx col
ored emfgrants arrived at Shelbyrf1fe Dec. Il
last. The Mayor called meeting of the
Council, and provision was made for the des-
tftute. About twenty came afterwards.
These men are still scattered In or about the
town. Witness had heard Of two or three
other companies coming near Shelbyville.
The county Is Democratic, but the Congress
sional District Is doubtful and very close A
meeting Of citizens was held, at which 1t was
resolved that the law of 1862, inflicting d pen
atty Of $500 upon any one who should bring
pauper into the State, should be enforced
by the proper officers Witness learned from
negro named Flowers, and Mr. Harper,
there were to be

sent into Indiana before the tst Of February.
Flowers was there to investigate the allegar
tons that mob had attacked the negroes
Witness had seen the alleged mob. It was q
meeting OF fifteen OF twenty men to consider
the expediency of going to the depot to see II
train-load of negroes was coming to Shelby
Vile. There is no doubt that all the Demo

probably the most respectable Republicans
do also. The laboring class generally dis
countenances the movement The demand
for labor In Shelby County Is fully supplied.
There is even complaint Of scarcity OF work.

SHERMANsS CAMPAIGN.
SOUTH CAROLINA.

WASHINGTON, D. G., Feb. 5-The letter
given below will throw additional light on
the intrigues and manipulations Of Secretary
Sherman in his aspirations for the Presi-
dency- The writer of the letter, the gen
uinene5s OF which does not admit of Dues
tion, IS Mr. c. ", Moulton, who is
lawyer Of Cincinnati and brother-in-
law OF Secretary Sherman. lie is fre-
quently In Washington; is, perhaps, the most
intimate and trusted of the Secretary's
friends, and Is an earnest advocate and
worker for that gentleman's nomination.
The letter gives an Interesting insight into
the political situation in New York. and it
further shows that, while in some quarters
as Is known, an alliance has been formed be-
tween the Blaine and Sherman forces. in
others deal Is attempted with the enemies
Of NJ Blaine. Some one Is eventually to be
