C0utinae the Mills In Operation.
PIrrBuReH, September l2.-The Western
Nail Association held their regular quar-.
terly meeting at their rooms on Fourth
avenue. Although the attendance was not
large the meeting was quite protractsd and
the situation OF the trade was fully and
freely discussed. The general trade Tas 70.
ported good and dealers expressed them
selves as satisfactory with the outlook. The
repeated suspensions since last spring,
however, have resulted In very light
stocks with the assortments badly broken.
In view OF this II was decided not 10 order
q stoppage OF the nail machines, Is Vas an
ticipated would be done, but 10 continue
them in operation until further orders. II
is quite probable that no more suspensions
win take place this season. The question
OF charging the card rate came up during
the meeting, but IL was unanimously de-
cided to let il remain as IL is at present.
The Association will hold another meeting
next "Wednesday, with the hopes Of having
full attendance.

Conductor.

New YORK, September l2.-At the cOro-
ner's inquest in the case of the victims OF
the explosion.Oi h. steameriRiyerdale' s5oll
er, the foreman OF the jury hada wordy war
with the Supervising Steamboat Inspector
Starbuck in regard to the latter's right to
cut and carry away portions OF the boiler
before the conclusion OF the coroners IN
vestgation. Starbuck said his authority
was the Secretary and Treasurer, aud
stated that the jury could view the pieces
of the boiler at his Office. This
the iurv refused to do, and Starbuck then
said that the boiler exhibits would not be
allowed out of his office unless by his
authority being the Inspector General.
Coroner Martin held that the Inspector
Generals authority in matters was suo)r-
dinate to his own, and said that il pieces
were not delivered at the Coroner's office he
would issue an order that they slonld
he brought there and would see thIt
it was enforced. The supervisor said he
would telegraph to Washington Tor n
structions on the matter and the subject
was dropped
The inGuest on the bodies of John HUt
and John Henry BOlte, killed in a collision
on Rockaway and Long Beach trains On
the Long Island Railroad on the 81 inst
was concluded. The Jury find that al
though there was no criminal neglect TO
be Charged against George Johnson,
conductor of the Rockaway train,
he was guilty of gross error
in judgment in stopping his train at Spring,
field station when Long Beach was behind
him, and also in not comparing watches
with bisIengineer before leaving for Rocka-
way, They also find Joseph McCanu, q
brakeman on the Rockaway train, guilty OF
culpable negligence in not going far enough
back to signal the Long Beach train.

I,,Ii.us swelling the Democracy:

New YORK, September II. The Demo
cratic Italian Society, recently organized,
held its first public meeting in Everett
Hall, 81 Fourth street, last evening. The
officers are: President, Vincenzo Palumbo; ;
Secretary, Giuseppe Talucca; Treasurer,
Vincenzo Borell. The President said that
the object Of the society is to have Italians
take an interest in the politics OF their
adopted land. He thought the Italians
ought to belong to the Democratic party
because it offers protection TO labor. The
Republican party does not sympathise, he
said, with foreign nationaiities. Sheriff
Alexander V. Davidson was present and
said that he was glad to see Italians taking
an interest in politics.
Diodsto Villemana congratulated the So
ciety on the movement il had inaugurated.
Alexander Grant, President of the HHnga'
risn Society, said that the italian soceity
had started under auspicious circum-
stances. It was said that there are about
10000 Italians in this city, and that con-
siderable number are voters.
