Coal Miners Strike.

Pittsburgh, Pa, Reports FROM,
the railroad coal mines this evening
state that the strike against the re-
duction of half cent per bushel in
the price of mining mas extended
to all mines save one or two. Opera
tives admit that the strike is gen
raj, but profess to be indifferent as
to whether it is of long or short du-
ration. They say they will see
their mines idle until next fail
rather than pay more than 3 cents
per bushel for mining. phe miners
officers pronounce this the greatest
strike of miners ever inauguTateG
in this district and say they are pre-
pared to hold out.

Strange Death.

San Francisco, IA death in
volving much mystery has Just been
discovered. L0ttie HunsinRer. 2
pretty mi,liner, 20 years of age, suf-
ferlng from neuralgia, visited the
Office OF Seth Cook, a brother of the.
millionaire, Dan Cook, for what
purpose is not known. While there
chatting with Cook, she took uD a
bottle of DR.. Fowler's patent neu-
ralgia pills, and saying "Oh, these.
will cure my neuralgia" swallowed
number of them. After breakfast
ing with Cook, she complained of
feeling unwell and died that even
ing. a medical man was called
in and failed to report the case. as
did also the coroner. a coffin was
ordered, but before the funeral took
place the attention of the police
authorities was called. The coron-
er's jury reported died of pleurisy.
This is considered strange. The
matter is under investigation.

Hog Expectation .

New York, IA committee of
importers of pork products at Ham
burg writes the Chamber of Com
merce here that a pamphlet by T.
Brette, of New York, is mainly re.
sponsible for the prohibition of the
importation of American bacon,
and says the Chamber should make
it publicly known that the pam
phlet must be considered a mere
stroke of business enterprise, and
that no importance whatever must
be attached to it. The remarks
about the quality of goods, the re-
marks of the New York StG0'z-
Zeitung, as well as some other
American papers, to the effect that
dead hogs are used for the manufac-
ture of lard and that the product of
hogs is used for mercantile purposes
and was called lard A l, have done
the greatest harm and contribted to-
wards establishing a prejudice
against the American hog produc-
ton with some members Of our
government who, without any eX-
perience in the matter, take a theO-
retical view of it and seem to think
the public may be led to believe
this lard is also tit for consumption.
Everybody acquainted with the
trade know this is i'm
possible. Nevertheless, we would
recommend that, for this
name be substituted another,
perhaps "refuse A l." which would
render a misunderstanding of that
kind impossible. Any term that
does not contain the word lard
would suit the purpose in order to
secure repeal of the prohibition.
1t is of the greatest Importance that
government should take the trouble
of making the necessary investiga-
tions, which would establish the
following facts: first, that no dis
eased hogs or dead hogs are used for
the export trade; second, that ex-
animation of the goods when
shipped is very strict, so much so
that it is only fully cured and whole
some pigs that can pass. When
the opinion of our leading men has
changed again in favor of the i'm
portation, such investigation Gun
only have a beneficial influence on
the whole trade in American pro
ducts in general. Certainly it will
prove the best means of removing
the existing prejudice and securing
a repeal of the prohibition lately is
sued.

WHAT IT MEANS.

1.-THE Parnell fund is expected to
reach $4,000 by the first of Deem
ber.' Such is the simple announce.
ment made in a stray di patch. But
it covers a world of meaning. It tells
of q brave man who in the hour of
his country's greatest peril never fall
tered in his defense of her rights. 1t
tells of a great soul who sacrificed his
private interests for his peoples good.
It tells of one who. almost alone.
stood between his countrymen and
their oppressors and became the tar
get of shafts aimed at the former. It
tells of one who has yielded the best
days of his life to the service. of his
country and who still leads his peo-
pie in their struggle FOR civil liberty.
1t also speaks of true, generous and
grateful people who appreciate the
sacrifices which their leader
has made in their behalf. II means
they stand ready to strengthen and
sustain him in his battle for their
rights. 1t means they will cheerful
ly yield their substance for their
country's welfare. 1t means that
patriotism pays tribute to the pa
triot and that oppression has failed
to stifie the generous impulses of a
down-trodden people. 1t may mean
still more. 1t may meal that theiives
Of the donors would be as cheerfaliy

GENERAL RE-
TlREMENT.

General Sherman retired from the
command of the army of the United
States yesterday, and General Sheri-
dan assumed the honors and respon-
sibilities OF the position, It may we'll
be questioned whether the policy
which virtually shelves u true. tried
and trusted soldier is a good one. II
is true that cas- may I've cited where
it is really necessary for the good
Of the service that some old
barnacles should be rubbed Oft the
list of activa officers Of the army.
But General Sherman does not be-
long to that class. He is a man as full
Of vigor as Of years and with an
intellect as clear and strong as ever.
In time of war the retirement
of such a man from the head
Of the army would be 3 national
calamity. As it is, with the nation
at peace with all the world, his lay
ing aside a command which he is 80
eminently qualified to continue is
not viewed with general favor. But
as the General is simply retired from
active duties his counsel and expert
ence will still be at the service of the
country. This will in part colnpen-
safe his loss at the head of the army.
His successor, General Sheridan,
enters upon his duties in an auspi-
cious moment AID may grasp all the
details of his new position unembar-
raised by international disturbances
or complications.

Railroad Notes,

Topeka, Kan, Nov. 2.-The an
swer Of the Kansas Pacific Railway
Company to the petition in the quo
warranto case now pending in The
Supreme Court, filed yesterday with
the clerk Of that court alleges that a
railroad is not a corporation credited
by any law of the territory and State
Of Kansas, and claims no rights,
privileges or franchises as such. 1t
alleges it "a created by act of Con-
gress; that 10y virtue of the rights
conferred by that act it was organ
lied and built its line and road, and
under such authority it has ever
since been operated and still contin-
lei to operate its road; that
the railroad constructed by it
is different line than
that designated by the Territorial act
and that the consolidation it has en-
tered into with the Union Pacific
and Denver Pacific railroads was
made under authority found in acts
of Congress and not under any act
made by the State. 1t denies any
right OF a State to forfeit its fran
chises, and claims the paramount
control eve it exists solely in the
government Of the United States.
and closes with a general denial of
all the allegations in the petition not
expressly admitted.

THE aLEND1VE SHOOTING.

The Miles City Journal in COM
mentiDg upon the recent shooting at
Glendive in which one of the sher-
ifs posse was killed gives ~utterance
to the following rather strange Ian
! guage:
ut is the opinion of those who
know that the cowboys who were ar
rested at Glendive for killing q man
there will not tie convicted. Already
over 81 1000 have been raised to defend
them with, and a prominent Chey-
enne lawyer has be n engaged to at
tend to it. The whole thing was a
drunken row, in which the officers
were a. drunk as anyone. We hope
the boys will soon admitted to bail,
as it is very doubtful when they will
have their trial"
In noticing the above the Glendive
Times in unmistakable earnestness
reaches after the scalp Of the Miles
City editor 81 follows:
1t is also the. opinion of those who
know (?) that cowboys are privileged
to go about Staying people at tneir
pleasure. DO the knowing ones also
assert that they can 60 free after hav-
ing killed q member of a sheriff's
posse just because of incompetency Of
our officers? Do we then have to
hang our heads, like dogs, at the
mercy Of numbering cowboys. and if
one of US are shot occasionally it is
no crimeo If we reverse the shoot
ing part Of the programme, and in
self-defense kill a cowboy, then are
the hands held up in holy horror by
these sanctimonious knowing ones?
From whence springs all this SYM
pathy for these COWBOYS, that We no.
tice in Miles City: Are the dare
devil proclivities of whisky inspired
cowboys or desperadoes held in SO
much esteem? Is the shooting of a
man in cold blood a m%eritorious
deed? If upon such principles is the
boosted social and moral standing of
Miles City is based, then no wonder
it is the home of thugs, thieves,
FOUNDERS, incendiaries and vigil
lantes. The Journal with it's usual
aptitude for mistakes asserts that
our officers were drunk, this is incor-
rect, but they were quite as harmless.
