A special dispatch from Pittsburg to
the New York Herald says that the great
iron mill strike, which it was hoped would
be avoided, will come after all. A con-
ference was had between committees of
manufacturers and workmen last Mon
day, at which the former peremptorily
declined to accede to the demands
of the latter, and, in conse-
quence, after June LIST the great IRON
manufactures of the West will be idle
This viii, doubtless, suit the mill own
ers, as the season is dull, and, owing to
over production. prices have fallen. The
fight now seems to be between organized
capital and labor, and all the mills west
of Pittsburg will probably shut down
with those of that city. The operators
say the mill owners cannot afford to
allow their works to remain idle, but the
owners declare they will not turn a
wheel at the rates demanded by the
wOrkmen.

On Friday last a general order was
issued from the War Department with
regard to rifle practice and marksman-
ship in the army. The object is to raise
the standard of craftsmanship among
both officers and men, and the main
features of the order are as follows: 1t
establishes three grades of prizes, to be
known as the department prize, the di-
vision prize, and the army prize. Teams
are to be selected annually from the best
msrksmen of every company, battery
and troop, and the members of these
teams are to compete in August of every
year for places in the department team
of twelve. The maTksman who makes
the highest aggregate score in this con-
test is to receive a gold medal A divis-
ion team is then to be selected in
similar way from the best shots in the
departments, the competition to take
place annually in September, and the
prizes to consist of gold and silver med
ais. Finally, every alternate year, be-
ginning in 1882, the General of the
army will assemble, from the entire
army, twelve of the best shots to COM
pete for the army prizes. The number
to be furnished from each military di
vision and from the military battalion,
together with the time, place, terms of
competition, name of director, ETC., will
be announced in orders. The prizes will
consist of three gold and three silver
medals, which may be worn on all dress
occasions, and are to become the abso-
lutte property of the winners. The con-
test for the army prizes will take place
this year at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas,
and will begin October 95th.

The 60 that uhatis nalInd n

The fact that what is called the balance
of trade has for several months past
been against US, and that to make things
even we are now shipping gold to Eu-
rope, is pointed to by the advocates of
an exclusively gold coinage as a sign that
the silver dollar will drive gold from the
country and leave us without that valua-
bic metal The st. Louis Republican
thinks there is little real ground for
alarm. 1t says: 1--WE can stand little
drain of gold without disadvantage. For
six years past Europe has been sending
gold to us to pay for our large exports of
produce, and all the while we have been
taking $35. 900, 600 to $40, 900, 900 gold
from our mines. This has gone on till
we have a very large supply of that
metal, and a shipment Of 1000, 900 to
s, 600, 600 a month will not be any great
disadvantage to U.s."

The inquiry into the doings of the
Peruvisn Company, while 1t has re-
vealed little that was not pretty well IN
derstoOd before it began. has shown how
unwise, to put it mildly, subordinate
officer Of the government may be when
he presumes to act without comforting
with his chief. Thus, il is shown, on Mr..
Blaine's own evidence during the recent
investigation, that be was ready to 60 70
great lengths to humble the British lion
and elevate the American bird, and that
he was ready and willing to place the
administration in a position that might
have been decidedly uncomfortable.
His broad hints TO Chilli, conveyed in
his dispatches TO Hurlbut, were given,
so far as it appears, without the sanction
or knowledge Of President Garfield.
How far he (Mr. Blaine) might have been
affected by Mr.. Shepherds suggestions
had President Garfield not been slain,
and Mr.. Arthur not subsequently clip
ped the wings Of the American eagle, it
Is impossible to imagine
Il is needless to inquire further regard
ing Mr.. Shepherds effort to secure
American Intervention between the vic
tors and vanquished. 1t appears that be
knew his men and how to approach
them. He was playing for a big stake
and lost it by an unlucky turn of the
wheel The committee did right to
send him and his documents packing
since he refused to deal ingenuously
with them. He has had his exit and
need not be recalled.
There is another phase of the matter,
however, that the committee cannot in
/ decency ignore. Sundry State papers
bearing on the inquiry mysteri )usly dis
/ appeared from the files of the depart
ment and cannot be found. The most
plausible, if not the only, explanation
offered Of their disappearance is that Mr..
Trescott, before going out to South
America, may have slowed them away at
/ home-since he was a sort of fqct0tum in
the service Of the department just pre-
vious to receiving his las. embassy-or
he may have taken them with him.
This matter calls for rigid inquiry.
I Mr. Assistant Secretary Hit should be
/ able TO account for them, but is at a loss
to do so, and so it is with the rest of the
attaches Of the department. Why did
they disappear and why such profound
/ ignorance as to their loss7 The COM
mittee has wrestled with Mr. Shipherd
and Mr.. Blaine, and been in a measure
lost in the jungle into which it was
led by these clever witnesses. But these
lost documents suggest bat two ques-
tons. How and why, did they disap-
pear? If the committee will undertake
to obtain satisfactory answers to these
queries, they will relieve themselves of
some unpleasant suspicious, and, pos
sibly. make some discoveries that will
throw light on certain matters that just
now are by no means clear. The COM
mittee have undertaken to complete the
whole Job of the Peruvian inquiry
They should not leave their work half
finished.

The colored Republicans of Georgia
have put on their war paint. At the
meeting of the Republican State Central
Committee at Macon, Tuesday. John ID.
Deveaux. coIored, was elected Chairman
over II. Potash Farrow, Esq, white,
and a resolution indorsing Hon. A. b.
STEPHENS for Governor was tabled. This
looks as if the colored Republicans had
at length gotten mad in dead earnest, and
intended hereafter to declare their indie
pendence. of their white allies. Their
course is certainly plucky, and the only
wonder is that the cOlOred element Of
that party had not taken similar action
long ago, instead of quietly permitting,
ali these years, the white Republican tail
to fly the cOlored kite.
Another fact which is developed by the
action of these colored Republicans IS
that they are not IN sympathy with the
Felton-Speer combination, and no more
propose to be used by that faction than
they do to be longer the tools of their
white confederates. The Feltonite lead
ers, only a few days ag), had hssty
conference in Atlanta, and, upon the
suggestion Of Hon. Emory Speer, recon-
mended Mr.. Stephens as Governor of
Georgia, evidently relying upon their
action being generally Endorsed by the
soreheads and Republicans of the State.
1t looks now as if they were counting
without their host, as far as the colored
Republicans are concerned, and without
the sympathy of the negro Republican
element an Endorsement by the insignif-
cant white faction of that party would
amount to little more than farce.
Nor is this the only dilemma in which
the Feltonites find themselves. As will
be seen by reference to another column,
Mr. Stephens, since his Speer-Feltonite
recommendation" has positively de-
elared TO the special Washington cores
pondent of the Augusta Chronicle ana
ConStitutionaHst that he will not permit
his name to be used in connection with
the Governorship of Georgia at the mex
election against the nomination OF
another person by the Democratic State
Convention, to assemble on the 10Th OF
July next"
Here Mr.. Stephens emphatically repu
dates the Recommendation" which
Hon. Emory Speer, Independent N. c.
from the Ninth Congressional district of
Georgia, telegraphed to Rev. FELTON,
DID, he knelc he Mr. Stephens woulC
accept. Thus the Speer FELTON, comb
nation find themselves left out IN the
cold, and, abandoned by theil
candidate at one end, and by
their colored allies at The
other, they must break down in the
middle Verify, MIR. Stephens ha:
taught our political parson that, he, like
st. Paul of old, is not willing to be
tossed to and fro, and carried about
with every wind Of doctrine, by sleight
of hand and cunning craftiness, whereby
they" Che independently lie in wait tC

The straight out Republicans ot Vir-

Several Of the party who formerly sup
