There was little change in the freight
handlers strike In New York yesterday. Work
was going on fairly at some OF the piers and
slowly at others, Argument was heard on the
application Of the people for mandamus to
compel the New York Central Hudson
River and the Lake Erie & Western Railroad
Companies TO receive and transport freight
promptly. II was stated In argument that the
delay In moving freight had caused loss TO
probably 100000 to tho choose merchants,
and the total loss was estimated at $1,000, 900
day.
Seven Of the imported miners left Eek
hart yesterday. The hearing OF the Maryland
Coal Company eviction cases has been contln-

on the men themselves. Notice TO Quit q house
can be left at the house with any OF the fam
fly, or, no one being there can be put under
the door, but summons 10 appear ana show
cause Is different. II will probably take some
time 10 settle these cases, which are regarded
as a test ON grounds most favorable TO the
companies.

In every sound think hear her feet

And still say "ro'morrow We shall meet"
1 watch the shadows in the crowded street
Each passing face follow one by ono
In every sound think hear her feet.
And months 60 by-bleak March and May.day
Harvest is over-winter well.nigh done
And still say, "To-morrow we shall meet
Among the city squares, when flowers are

With. every breath a sigh of hers seems

In every sound think hear her feet.
Belfry and clock tho unendlug hours repeat,
From twelve to twelye-and still she come in

which we can safely state Is three times as large rs
the stock OF any other merchant In this city.
Therefore, prepare Tor Bargains, as by the time
reduce the stock to the smallest In the city. The
Goods are all fresh, having sent all our old trash
toNew York auction, to be sold to the highest
bidder. Call early In the morning to avoid the
immense rush.

Casualties.

Scranton Junction, Mass. 2S.-The
afternoon lightning express from Boston
on the Providence road was thrown on q
side track By q misplaced switch on
saturday. The train was going fity-hve
miles an hour, and the cars were turned
partially on their sides, and the Passen-
gers thrown in heap in the aisles. Just
- the flying train passed the station. the
titllng drawing room cars struck the
baggage car on the other track, and this
alone prevented the train from going
completely over and causing frightful
accident, as the cars were crowded.
When the train was partially righted the
brakes were applied and the train brought
TO stsndstill. No one was seriously in
jured
Cincinnati, PA collision occurred
on the Little Maine Railroad, near
Fosters Crossing, on g dangerous en-
baEkment, between the express from the
east and a freight train. The account
given by passengers is that the freight
was running free aud had orders to
stop at Fosters Crossing for the express
to pass, but the engineer undertook to
pass the switch and then back in when
the express train came on. The eagineer
and fireman saved themselves by jump
ing. The engines were wrecked, and
two freight cars thrown into the little
Mama River. Among tbs passengers
slightly injured were e. McCaleb, of
New Orleans; judge advocate general Of
Louisiana; j. w. Cockhedge, New
York; D. w. Enheim, Pittsburg; j. w.
Jones, Columbia, Ohio; Engineer Lyons,
Of the freight train was badly bruised.

side eff Sc, 500. The engines were not

Chinese Opium Dens and nu-

New York, 24.-The Tribune, writing
up New York's opium dens, compares
them with those of San Francisco thut;
The opium joints OF New York have
nothing different from those OF San
Francisco, but the sister city Of the
Golden Gate can boast, or deplore rather
pre-eminenee in the matter OF Chinese
tbeatricsls. One hears no music n Mott
street, aud might infer that the Chinese
are not musical people. On the con-
trary, they claim 20 be the only must
Clans. Instrumental music hiss the prer-
erence with them. The fsvorite instru-
ments in the Chinese orchestra are the
gong. Of whica there are many varieties;
kind of lutte or guitar with wire strings
picked by finger nails; small
reed Instrument like the clarionet
or hautbey, but in time putting to shame
the most tunful tsbby of the garden wall.
The Chinese tunes or tune for all tunes
are but slight modification of one theme,
Il always pitched in a minor key. Gay
ETY., mirih, anger, sorrow and all other
emotions must be expressed By changing
the movement of the dirge-like theme.
Vocal music falls 20 the share of the
Chinese women, although ocea ionslly a
mhlc NOICo - 6u pIOJ64 ueiuR lhl56LO
tones. As an actor, the Chinaman ap-
pears csricAture Of himself. he com
psritive quietness Of Mott street contrasts
with the constant din and clatter of San
Francisco Chinatown. Many of the
streets there are cue continuous line of
stands and sails where wares are sold.
and where lively conversation seems to
constisLtl an important part Of
the trade, but street vendors are the
noisy part of the population, except
musicians. There vendors patrol tie
streets, and day and nigh. drawing out
their dolGful notes like night owls, and
even while they sell they keep cryiag
away, as if afraid of missing a moment
in thus advertising their business. Tia
gaming houses in Mott street do not care
70 admit the me:e curious on-lookers, yet
. peep behind the scenes disc!oses. q
group of excited Chinsmen standing
around 8 small table covered with rush
mating, and playing some kind of grab
,sme with dominoes. In this game
much seems to depend on presence Of
mind. and quickness of motion is 9 great
lement IN the successful gsmester.
Opium deus and gambling hogses in San |
