ILLEGAL FEES.

and Feathers His Own Nest.
On the first of May, Christian Hunch-
berger and an elderly companion, named
Mowry, drove around to several of the
hotels in this city for the purpose of put
ting up sale bills. On reaching Rehm's
hotel, South Queen street, Mr.. Hunch-
berger went inside, leaving Mr.. Mowry
to hitch their horse. While thus
engaged, Joseph Dorwart and Samuel
Hoffman, both of whom were intoxi-
Gated came along and made an in
sulting remark to Mr.. Mowery. which he
mildly resented. DOrwart then knocked
his hat off and took him by the neck. Mr..
Hunchberger ran to his assistance and re-
monstrated with the men, whercupon they
attacked him, and knocked him off the
porch, causing him to fall. They then
beat and kicked him shamefully. He
made complaint OF assault and battery
against them before Alderman Barr, and
the hearing took place yesterday
afternoon. The case of assault
and battery was fully made out and the
alderman demanded bail for tho appear
ance of the accused at court. 1t took
some little time to secure the bail, and in
tho meantime the complainant and de-
fendaDts got into conversation about
settling the case, the latter agreeing to
pay the costs and Mr.. Hunchberger agree
ing to withdraw the complaints-all OF
which was right and proper. But Dis
trict Attorney Davis was present, claim
ing to represent the commonwealth,
and Gee. w. Eaby, clerk of quarter sessions
was present, representing his own con-
tingent interests. Mr.. Davis declared tho
camplaint could not be withdrawn that it
must 60 to court. "How am to get my
fees, and how is Eaby to got his fees, if
the case is settled % inquired Mr.. Davis,
with much warmth. The complainant
insisted that he didn't want to prosecute
the case any further and the defendants
were willing to pay the alderman's and
constable's costs, and thus avoid trial in
court but "my costs and Mr.. Eaby's
COSTS were what the district at
torney was looking after, and he
absolutely bulldozed Dorwart into paying
S20.S5, and Hoffman $22.77, before he
would consent to withdrawal of the
camplaint-and alderman Barr permitted
him to do so! Davis share of the plumber
is understood to be S14 90, and Eaby' 80. 90,
not one cent of which either of them was
entitled to.

The breach in the Republican party of
this state shows no signs of healing, and
rs the contest here attracts attention
and sympathy from outside the chances
of Il such reconciliation are lessened.
The friends of the administration seem
to regard the Mitchell bolt as inspired
by Blaine. Unquestionably the revolt
against divers election was stiffened
by encouragement from Blaine, if not by
assurances on the part of Garfield, and
if Blaine or any other factor in national
politics interferes, openly or secretly, in
the Independent movement here, it
takes on Il larger than local interest and
fOrebodes that disintegration of the
party at large, which has been looked
for so many years. The assurances
of support, which Mr.. Mitchell
is reported to be receiving from
every part of the state, indi-
cate large following for him,
and those who have linked their
fortunes in the Independent leadership.
Ii to this circumstance shall be added
the threatened declination of Tom Mar
shall, the Cameron cause will be in bad
way, sure enough. Without Marshall
the ticket will lie exceedingly weak in
the West, and the offensive methods of
its nomination have aroused an oppOsi-
tiOn to it in the other portions of the
state, which no personal popularity of its
nominees can possibly overcome. Nor
can either party to the present factional
Issue recede from its position without
defeat and disgrace. The day for COM
promise came and waited on the day for
concession. The convention was hardly
adjourned until the Independents saw
that the pretext of having had more than
half the ticket conceded to them was a
sham, and that the professions of the
platform were hollow, hollow, hollow. -
Only the stupid were. deceived, and the
cause is justas strong without them. The
fight against Cameronism and Stalwart-
ism may rs well be fought out in Penn
sylvania, for nowhere are their men and
methods more obnoxious.

MATTERS IN MARTIC.



Wednesday, May 10th was gala day
in the vicinity Of Mount NebO. MIR.
Joseph Appleton and bis wife celebrated
the fiftieth anniversary of their marriage.
Their relatives and friends to the number
of about 20 collected during the afternoon.
At 4 p. m, two stanzas of q hymn were
sung Rev. II. G. Wood then made some
appropriate remarks, and the aged couple
were presented with twenty five dollars
in gold, a very beautiful clock, a fine cup
and saucer for each, and several arti cles
OF wearing apr arel; prayer was then offered
in behalf of the happy pair Mr.. Appleton
rose and stated that his family now cor.
sisted Of children, II grand children and
II great grand children. The next move
was to the supper table where an excel
lent opportunity was offered to get good
square meal. Everybody seemed to en-
joy partaking of the good things prosa!ed
for the inner man, and all passed off most
sa isfactOrily.
Truly it was pleasant afternoon, and
everybody left wishing the bride and
groom many more years of happy life.
The earlier part Of Monday, May u,
was period of great uncertainty to the
Martic pedagOGues but before the day
had entirely gone an entirely different
aspect of the matter was given to most Of
them. Marticvillc during that day was
tho scene of the annual examination of
the teachers of Martic township. The
class was noted for containing few appli-
cants who did not receive the coveted cer-
tificate in this respect great improve
ment to the record made by the Martic
class in former years was noticeable
Owing to the fact that the new school
board has not yet been organized, the ap-
pointment of the teachers was postponed
until June g. when the directors will meet
in the Rawlinsville school house for the
purpose Of appointing the teachers for the
coming winter.

Result of . Heavy Blast q Rock.
Yesterday afternoon about 3 O'Clock, a
heavy charge of blasting powder was put
into ledge of rock near Valley Creek
bridge, on the line of the Pennsylvania
railroad, in Chester county, at which point
the road is being Strengthened. The rock
has been great deal shattered by previ-
Gus blasts and contained many assures.
When the blast was made yesterday, 1t
was supposed the rock would fall away
from the railroad, but on the contrary
mass Of it weighing not less than fifty tons
was broken of from the ledgo and fell
down upon the road, completely blocking
up both tracks. The wreckers were at
once set to work, and by midnight had
one of the tracks clear, and by O'Clock
this morning cleared the other.

They Did Not Get In.

Last evening about 8 o'clock thieves
made an attempt to enter the carriage
factory of Henry Nolty, at Marion and
Market streets. Two men crawled up to
the second story and attempted to get in.
They were seen by a lot of boys who were
playing in the neighborhood, and they in
formed the police. Chief of Police
Deichler, with several officers, visited the
place but the men had escaped. 1t is said
that there were three of them in the
crowd. They stole nothing, and it is be-
lieved by many that they were tramps who
wanted to sleep in the place.

COlLE, THE MURDERER.
Arguing His Case Before the Supreme Cou

Arguing His Case Before the Supreme Court.
In the supreme court yesterday argu-
ment was heard on the assignments of
error taken in the case of John Coyle, jr.,
who was tried and convicted of murder in
York county and sentenced to be hanged.
The facts of the case are fresh in the
minds of our readers. 1t will be rer0em-
bered that COyle was young man,
twenty six years of age, living with his
father and mother on the banks of the
Susquehanna river, opposite : Marietta
in Lancaster county. He was the
only child. There had lived with
the Coyle family for some time in the Ca
pacity of hired girl q young woman named
Emily Myers, to whom Coyle became
greatly attached. His attentions wero
avoided by the girl, who did not seem to
care enough for him to marry him. Early
in the morning of the 10th of May last
Emily got up and went out to milk the
COWS. Mrs. Coyle, who slept in the same
room with the girl, remained IN bed,
and shortly after Emily had left the
house heard three sounds similar to
those of pistol shots She got up
and called for the girl, but no answer
came, and when she went out toward the
barn she met her son, who told her that
she need not call for Emily, as lie had
shot her dead. He said he was also going
to die from self-inflicted wounds. He
claimed that the girl had promised to
marry him, and that he went to the barn
to see if she was going to be as good as her
word. She said mo, 1 won't have you nor
any other man." COyle then told his
mother that he told Emily he would shoot
her. for no other man should have her.
He said she dared him to do SO, and
throwing herself back, said, Shoot me
right here Shoot me quick - COyle
drew his revolver and shut the young
woman, He also fred two shots into his
own body. Tho young woman never
spoke after sho was struck, but. died
instantly. Coyle recovered, and was
tried for the murder, which resulted
in his conviction. At the trial the
defense set up that the young man was
insane that he had a mania for loving
every girl ne came across, and that he had
frequently been under fits of insanity. 1t
was claimed that he had previously at
tempted to shoot himself, and on another
occasion had taken arsenic which had been
purchased tOkill rats. It was claimed that
he had locked himself up in his room from
Saturday morning until Monday morning,
when the shooting occurred, and had re-
fused to see any one or to come down
to his meals. On December 10, 1881, after
Coylo's conviction of murder in the
first degree, Judge Wickes sentenced him
to be hanged. An appeal was taken to
the supreme court, error ofthe lower court
being alleged in the charge of the judge
upon the insanity question and upon other
points that were raised. Messrs. II. L.
Fisher and w. G. Chapman represented
Coyle, District-Attorney Zeigler and
George w. McEIroy the commonwealth.
The supreme court held the matter under
adv isement.

The Auparent Strike,

The iron workers of Cleveland, num-
bering live thousand, have ceased to
work, and twenty-five hundred coal
miners in that region declare that they
will do the same if their demand for An
increase of wages is not complied with.
There is an apprehension that the meet
ing of the Iron Workers association at
Pittsburgh on saturday will result in 4
strike there. The Philadelphia rolling
mills, having reduced their card rate for
iron to two and Six-tenths cents per
pound, it is feared that the employees
there will refuse to consent to the reduc-
tion in their wages, which they have
heretofore agreed that reduction in
the price of iron should bring about.
These strikes and rumors of strikes at
this time are unnatural, because there is
no apparent reason for them. The work
men are being we'll paid and the manu-
facturers are working at very close prices.
The profits of manufacture being small
and the demand light it is certainly far
more against the interest of the work.
man than of the employer that manu-
facture should stop. A demand for
higher wages, when business is slack, is
not justified by good sense. We do not
consider it, therefore, likely that strike
will he promoted by the workingmen's
unions. The manufacturers are in too
good q position to meet it to make its sue
cess probable. Their interests would Suf-
fer too little by a stoppage of their works
to make them very willing to pay very
high for the privilege of manufacturing.
The workmen are not fools and they
know we'll enough that this is not their
opportunity.

Some people, who aye Anrprised at
Senator Mitchell's sudden vigor, declare
that Blaine is behind it and that this Me-
ph;stopheles in politics is setting up the
whole Independent movement in Penn
sylvania against the Stalwarts. No doubt
it has his sympathy; but there is no
need to suppose that he is the father Of
it. 1t has plenty Of substantial cause for
coming into being the wonder would
rather be if the revolt against the selfish
Cameronian rule did not break out. What
have the rebels to lose by their action !!
Look at Senator Mitchell, sitting in the
Senate as a representative of his state,
who ought. to be equal in influence to
his associate, atfinding shat the whole
political power of the senatorial position
is grasped by Cameron. What has he to
lose by revolt? As long as there was a
chance of his losing anything he was
quiet but when it became perfectly
clear that he was entirely ignored by
the Republican administration, self
respect and policy both required that he
should show that the thing could not be
done with impunity. A senator Of any
strength ut all would not submit to being
sliglted. He would necessarily require
that he should he treated by the presi-
dent with the like consideration that
was bestowed upon his colleague. And
if he not only failed to receive this,
but found his voice entirely i'm
potent with the administration, he
would take the opportunity, if it was
afforded him, Of showing that he could
not he kicked around like an old shoe.
In this case Senator Mitchell happened
to have behind him Il constituency, re-
spectacle in quantity and quality, who
were treated rs he was. He was a
representative man and he only shows
himself to he man by stepping out to
the head of his ill-treated constituency
and telling them to put up their arms in
self defense.
Senator Mitchell has acted with much
fOrbearance SO far, but there is no need
to suppose that any influence but that
of his own sense of what was due to his
position has prompted him to the decided
and emphatic action he has taken.
There will lie music in the air, and
Blaine will I've foremost in the band !;
but we believe that Mitchell himself is
fully able to blow the big horn he has
taken up.
