LABOR TROUBLES.
The Mills That Will Shut Down on
Thursday.
Where They are LOcated-A Rumor That
Some West Virginia Mills Will
Sign the Scale.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, May 2S.-From an OFF,
cial source a complete list Of all the iron
mills in Pittsburgh and the West which it
is claimed will shut down on Thursday
night in consequence of the strike that
the workmen will Inaugurate on that date,
the firms operating the establishments in
cluded in the list have all refused to sign
the amalsamated association scale Of wages
il is alleged, and
Lock Out
must be the result. The list is as follows:
Pittsburgh District-Twenty.nine firms,
many of whom operate several mills under
one name. Western Pennsylvania, outside
Of the Pittsburgh District-Eight rolling
mills. Cincinnati, Ohio District-Seven
rolling mills. Wheeling, w. Va, District,
which extends into 0hio-Fourteen mills.
Ohio District, below Wheeling and Lonis-
yille-Three mills, one OF which is
now idle. Mahoning Valley-Thirteen
mills. Interior counties Of Ohio-Fiye
mills. The Lake counties-One mill. In
diana--Two mills lllinois-Four mills, one
OF which 10 at Chicago and three at Belle
vile. Wisconsn-One mill, at Milwaukee.
Missouri - Two mills. Michigan - Two
mills. Nebraska-TwO mills.
This List
does not embrace steel mills, which may
or may not sign the scale. At the Anal.
gamated headquarters O.night there IS a
rumOr that five or six firms in Ohio and
West Virginia had or were about to sign
tie scale which was partly accredited. These
mills o doubt were omitted from the man
ufacturers' list given. Secretary Martin
says a number of the mills will have to
shut down for repairs, and for that reason
mainly will not sign the scale. All the
mills given in the foregoing are operated
by men in the Amalgamated Association,
who will strike. There are only % non
union mills in the United States.

POLITICAL TALK.
The Anti-Mahons Elements Great
Iy Encouraged. ~
TIVE REPUBLICANS IN PENNSYLVANIA
Making Their PIans-Cameron's Henchmea
Striving for Supremacy WNle the
Independents Lay Back on Their
Oars Awaiting Results.

R1cHNoSD, Va, May 28.-The resSit ol
local elections in this State, Thursday, wa:
unexpected by the Malone leaders. About
one half of the State has been heard from
ND to to this time, with results highly en-
coursging to the Democrats and other anti
Malone elements. 1t will be difficult, even
after all the returns are in, to make any
intelligent comparisons between the
strength of the contendiDg parties. tln
many counties no contest was made, and
in others questions of purely local charac'
ter prevailed. In most OF the
Malone strengbelds,
in tide-water sections, where the issue was
emphatically one of Malone, or anti Ma.
hone, the Democrats, aided by s'raight:out
Republicans, were victorious beyond their
most sanguine expectations The most sig
nificant and Overwhelming victories
achieved by these combined elements were
in counties where the colored people are
largely in the ma iority. Among the IN
stances of this kind were NsnseTond,
which has at times given the Malone can
didates 1000 majority Southampton,
Princess Anne, Goochland, Charlotte and
Prince George. Little has been heard from
the Southwest, where Malone has usually
been successful.
The Returns
received show that the Democrats have
made some heavy gains in that section, but
as a rule the Coalitionists have so lar man
aged to hold their own there, without
making any gains. Ex-Congressman Full
kerson's county in that portion OF the State
was carried by the Democrats.
The election of Thursday was the first
one held n.this State since the repeal OF
the head tax Law. Notwithstanding all that
has been said against that requirement the
poll in that contest does not indicate any
especial appreciation by either race OF free
suffrage. One of the effects Of the recent
election will be to increase the local pat
ronage of the Democrats and give them
control of counties heretofore completely
under the management OF
Mahone's Henchmen.
Another will be TO give encouragement 10
the weak. kneed Democratic officials VINO
have stood in mortal fear OF Malone
power. The defeat of Mahone's candidates
in numerous counties cannot fail to affect
the election this fall for members ol the
Legislature. Before the election 1t was
conceded by all that under the most favor.
able circumstances Malone would not
be able to carry the State Senate
by more than one majority. The
difficulty OF securing that body at
all now has been greatly increased by
the defeats just sustained by him.. Gov
ernor Cameron himself admits that his party
has met with severe losses in some OF the col
ored counties Other leaders on that side
are equally candid. The Straight,out Re-
publicans are greatly encouraged by what
they have accomplished in crippling Ma
homes influence in this State. This fact
has caused the agitation of the question Of
holding a State Convention by that ele-
ment to take measures for conducting the
Fall campaign.

CATCHING A HUSBAND.

irats wife, N-ho discovered her husband In
the psrson OF one Of the walters, and made
an attempt 70 settle accounts with him by
pouring bottle Of vitrol over bis precious

employed by Mr.. AckeIman for something
like six weeks, and was known rs William
Brown, though his real name 10 said to Be
Warren. He was formerly employed ~

one day his vile

rem, who had been looking for him all day
yesterday, finally located him at Acker-
mans place, and along about Q s'clock last
night she strobe into the place, went back
as far as the kitchen, where her husband
was giving an order, and poured half q
pint Of sulphurie acid over the back OF his
head and neck. With howl of pain he
fed through a rear deer and made his
way to the drug store at the corner OF Van
Buren and State streets. while hero hav.
ing his wounds dressed his wife appeared,
weeping and upbrai ding herself for having
hurt him. Her face was spotted in several
places by drops Of the acid, and she also
demanded treatment from the drug clerk.
After both had been nicely fixed up
They Kissed Nsa Msde Up
and walked away arm.in,arm. A reporter
who heard of the affair called at Acker-
mans restaurant, where he was told that
the woman had showed Mrs. Ackerman
her marriage certificate, and todd her that
they were married last November, and that
several months ago he deserted her, and
she had heard that he had proposed to one
of the girls at the restaurant that she
should 90 and live with him. lnasmuch
as she was soon to become a mother, Mrs.
Warren was indignant, and with the bottle
of acid went on hunt for her husband.
The result is known.
The police were notified OF tho case, and
an officer made an investigation, bu. con.
cluded TO take no action unless Warren
should demand the arrest OF his wife on
charge Of assault.

THE COMING STRIKE.
No Marked Change In the Labor Ques-
tfon 40 Pittsburgh.

PrrrssuRGH, May 2S.-The situation OF
affairs between the iron manufacturers
and workmen is without marked change,
and it is generally believed a prolonged
suspension is ineyident Thursday next
will witness the expiration of the existing
scales and work viii then be stopped in all
the mills which up to that time have not
signed the new scale. That the steel mills
will continue in operation is generally un-
derstood, and ii is conceded also that few
iron mills will sign the scale. With these
exceptions, however, the prospects are that
the iron mills OF this region and the West,
will shut down Friday next, aud continue
closed for an indefinite period.

FIGHTING A CATAMoUNT.
Fierce Battle Between Boy. Nan
and the savage Beast.

ASHLAND, Pa May 2>.-As athirteen-ye year
old son of VIM. Fetterman, resident of
Fouutsin Spring, near here, was on his way
home from Ashland last evening, and when
about so yards from the Miners Hospital
he was suddenly confronted by huge cat
amount, nine fee, long from the tip OF its
nose to the tip Of its tail. The boy was
paraly zed with fear and stood for several
mom ents unable to move, until the cata-
mount sprang. when he recovered hiJ sense
of mind somewhat and struck ont into a
rapid run. Before he got twenty yards the
catamount jumped upon the boy shoul-
der knocking him down. The boy
Screamed wildly
and made feeble struggle to get loose, but
il was unsvsiling. The catamount buried
it's iangs deep in the lads leg.
His screams at last attracted the atten'
ton Of tespsster named Wessenbatfer who
has,eled to the scene. Armed only with 9
Leayv whip, he sprasg on the enrsged
beast and struck il heavy blow on the
head. Releasing the boy, the beast sp,ans
toward the teamster. who retreated short
distance and, picking up heavy ciun,
awaited the onslaught. The catamount
