striking Iron Workers.

PHGNIxvILLE PA, February 2-The pud-
dlers formerly employed by the Pbeoix
Iron Company, but who went out on a strike
a few days ago, were paid off to day. A
committee waited upon the company's
managers and proposed to go to work and
make six heats when they could within
their hours, but the proviso was not alto
gether satisfactory, and no definite conclu-
sion was reached. The company are not
disposed to have outside associations say
how they shall conduct their business. The
works will be idle until such time as they
can be started in a satisfactory manner. The
puddlers have left for other mills.

INDIGNANT CREDITORS.
The Sufferers by Archbishop Pur-
cell's Financial Operations Hold
a Meeting and DenOunce the AS
sIgnee.
Cincinnati Special to the Chicago Tribune
,J1n1Ln11I 20

Cincinnati Special to the Chicago Tribune,
January co.
The creditors of Archbishop Purcell, to
the number of about five hundred, held to-
day what amounted to an indignation meet
ing against the assignee. The meeting was
ungovernable at the very beginning, and
for that reason very little formal action was
taken. Those present were highly wrought
up, and it is hardly probable that any well
defined plan of action has been arranged.
Upon one point there appeared to be very
general unanimity-viz that the work of
the assignee is being performed in a
very dilatory and unsatisfactory manner.
Resolutions were presented, but action
upon them was deferred until
the next meeting, which will be held Thurs
day evening of this week. These resolu-
tions declared that the creditors are being
defrauded by the assignee; that money
which was collected for their relief nearly
three years ago In different parts of the
country under the direction of a committee
Of which Cardinal McCloskey was chair
man have not yet been distributed; that
funds from the sale of property conveyed
by the Archbishop to the assignee are also
undistributed; that although prepared from
the outset to pay something, the assignee
has allowed more than three years to pass
without paying any portion of the claim;
budb bAC 4uLOo OCluS dUbOIUCu ny bu6
lawyers; and that delays have been pur-
pOsely made in the settling UP
Of the Archbishop's affairs. Speeches
were made in which even more
was charged against the assignee than
was contained in the resolutions,
and there were other speeches In which the
course of the assignee was defended. The
total number Of creditors against the Arch
bishop is about 5000, and the claims aggre-
gate 81 100000. The assignee has under
taken to subject all church property held in
trust by the Archbishop for the payment of
the claims. In this he is, of course siren
uously opposed by the congregation, whose
house of worship would, were the assignee
successful, be sold to the highest bidder.
The case is now ready for trial, and will be
one of the most interesting In the history OF
American jurisprudence. The hearing will
begin in February, and will last several
weeks. Eminent attorneys will be engaged
on both sides. The question at issue twheth-
er property held in trust by church digDi-
tary can be subjected to the payment of his
debts) has never been passed upon by the
courts of this country.

CHATTANOOGA, February 2-There has
been very great damage done by the food
in the Warrior and Tombigbee rivers in
Central Alabama. Through trains came in
last night on the Alabama Great Southern
Railway for the firsr time in ten days, and it
is clear that four or five negroes were drown
ed, and a large amount of live stock. Sew
eral parties have lost from 100 to $50 head
OF sheep. A large number of fine Cashmere
goats were lost by one farmer, and several
lost a number of horses and mules. The

GUITEAU.
OVerruIed-The Assassin TO be Sem
fenced MORROW.

WASHINGTON, D. c., February 2-The
motion for new trial for Guiteau will be
argued tomorrow morning, and will un-
doubtedly be denied by Judge Cox. The
District Attorney will then move
for immediate sentence, and It
is generally believed that Judge Cox
will call the prisoner up on Saturday
to receive sentence. That the assassin will
be sentenced to be hanged admits of no dis.
cussion, but the date of execution and the
disposition of his body after death will de-
pend upon the discretion Of the court, and
so far as can be ascertained Judge Cox has
not yet intimated what his action will be.
The impression prevails, however, that the
execution will take place not later than
June 30bh.

While playing with her children at a
game Of "snap-drsgon" at Sandringham,
she unwittingly overturned the vessel of
burning spirit. Her dress caught fire,
her eyebrows were singed, and one arm
was injured. Brave lady that she is, she
was the coolest of the group; while the
flames of her sleeve were being ex-

CAPITAL GLEANINGS.
KICKING AGAINST THE NEW AP-
PORTIONMENT.
The Georgia Syndieate-COx, OF La
Grange-An Old Piece of Goods
Re-labelIed-The MOTmOns TO the
Fore.

WASHINGTON, February 2.-There is con-
siderable dissatisfaction among the Senators
and Representatives Of States which, ae-
eording to the apportionment bill agreed
upon by the Census Committee, will have q
reduced representation in the House. Geor-
gia has nothing to complain of, as she will
get an increased representation, but Florida
can justly howl, as she will, be reduced in
her representation. There are other States
besides Florida which have been treated in
the same way, and the men of those States
are up in arms against the apportionment
bill and will try to secure It's defeat. There
does not seem to be any chance for success
in that direction, however. Every
thing points to the passage of the
bill which has been agreed upon by the
committee. There will be a strong fight
made when the bill comes up for considera-
tion to get amendments put on to it that
will prevent the reduction OF representa-
tiOn In any State, but, as stated, the chances
OF success are in the dim distance.
THE GEORGIA SYNDICATE.
There is considerable agitation among the
Georgia people here over the recent publ
cation in these dispatches giving the true
situation of affairs between the President
and the people who want to get up an In-
dependent party In Georgia. The people
most interested-those who are to manage
the deal-are greatly exercised to
find out how the NEWS got its information.
They have not found out as yet; they
probably will not find out ever. They have
been attempting some sort of devices, but
they have amounted to nothing. The
NEWS correspondent, as usual with him,
got the facts from the inside, aud they may
be termed the "frozen truth"
THE FIRST FRUIT.
The announcement which A. H. Cox, of
the LAGRANGE district, has openly made that
he will not train In the future with either
the Democrats or the Republicans. but will,
with other young men of Georgia, join In
an independent movement is pointed to here
as the first fruit of The new movement to
redeem Georgia from the Bourbons." The
men who are nursing the Independent boom
In Georgia cannot dilate at too great length
upon Cox's detection. They say that Cox
is the straw which indicates which way the
wind blows. They fail to remember that
even in the last campaign Cox was practi-
cal ' an Independent, and that they cannot
now really claim that he Is a new convert.
But Cox's announcement that he is fully on
the Independent lay has been laid before
the President as an indication that Georgia
is working itself right into an anti-DemO-
cratic fever.
MORMON DELEGATION ON THE GROUND.
The consideration of the Mormon ques-
tion by Congress is about to receive fresh
impetus through the presence in the city of
the committee appointed by the General
Conference Of the Reorganized Church of
Christ of the Latter Day Saints TO wait upon
the President and Congress and present
their version OF the Utah problem and their
proposed solution OF 1t.

road discovered an obstruction on the
track on Saturday morning at Kings
Bridge, not far from the scene of the Spuy-
ten Duyvil accident, which might have
produced another serious disaster. A
piece of timber three feet long was
wedged in between the track rail and
the guard rail at road crossing, and
with the apparent purpose of throwing
the first train from the track that should
strike it. Fortunately the wood was
somewhat decayed, and when the wheels
of the locomotive struck the wedge thew
pressed it down below the surface of the
track rail, and two trains passed over in
safety. 1t was discovered before anv
damage was done. A number of track

labor, and were greatly incensed at the

furnished the motive for the attempt to
produce another wreck.

A HORSE HAS THE SMALLPOX.
A Well Defined Case of varfOlofd In

St. Louis Globe.pemocrnt.

st. Louis Globe Democrat.
If anybody wants to know whether a
horse can have the smallpox. he may
ask Mr.. Wilson, of the firm of Nichols g.
Wilson, Second street commission mer-
chants. That gentleman owns and has
in his stable at Webster Grove, horse
which is just recovering from q severe
attack of what looked so very much like
varioloid that, although Mr.. Wilson is
not a veterinary or any other kind of a
doctor, he is willing to wager fair COM
mission that it was as well defined case
of the postulOus disease as any that
ever went down to quarantine. The
horse was taken sick about month ago,
aud in a short time large boils made
their appearance all over his body, and
the hair fell out, until the animal looked
as bare of hirsute adornment as Bar
NUNS famous hairless horse. The for
nation of the sores and their de-
velopment were identical with the
development of smallpox cases. The
animal suffered a great deal, and 1t
is only now convalescent, the pus.
tules passing out of the flesh and the
hair beginning to sprout, Altogether
the horse is doing so well that Mr.. Will
son hopes to have him out in a week or
so, in such condition that men with mix
lures for curing badness will not pursue
him through the streets and importune
him to try their remedies on the animals
hide.
The case is peculiar one, and is wor.
thy of investigation. Many persons who
have seen Mr.. Wilson's horse in all the
glory of his hairlessness. and with pus-
tules as big as OK eyes all over his body,
declare that he has heen afflicted with
pink eye; but the maj jority insist that it
is as good case of smallpox as has ever
gone on record. Mr. Wilson says he
never thought of having the animal vac
ciuated, and doesn't know whether he
had ever been vaccinated or not. He is
now sorry that he did not think of vac
cination about two months ago. The
medical men, and especially veterinary
physicians, should look into this case
and try to settle question that has been
frequently propounded but never salts
factorily answered: Can a horse have
the smallpox ? Mr.. Wilson is willing.
