RoXE, June s.-Mr. Erington has in
formed your correspondent that be Is about
to leave this city, but he declines to ex-
plain the reason ol his contemplated de-
rarture, or how long he may be absent.
Your correspondent is enabled to supple
ment dryiniormation by the announcement
that he will leave in deep distavor with the
Vatican, il not in absolute disgrace. For a
long time past, on the strength OF an open
letter OF recommendation, granted him by
Lord Granville, at his own express solicita-
tion, Mr.. Errington managed to dazzle the
eyes of the Vatican officials, and even Of
the Pope himself, despite all the disavowals
Of the English Government. 1t Is perfectly
true that he attended the Vatican reception
with the Cardinals, on the fame footing as
q properly accredited Ambassador. Re-
Gently, at the diplomatic dinners, he sat
next the Vatican master Of ceremonies,
Immediately alter the Cardinals and Am.
bassadcrs. He has, however, overreached
himself in irving TO overreach the

ambition, he has fallen. On the other
hand, have indispatable ecclesiastical
authority for stating that the recent letter
from the Propaganda to the Irish Bishops
was communicated directly or indirectly,
to the Loudon Times by Erripgton, who had
a copy OF the letter in his pocket before
either Bishop Croke or the other prelales
received theirs. The importance OF this
TACT cannot be oyerra!ed. 1t is certain
that but for Errington's gross iDdiscre,ion
and breach oil confidence the letter would
never have been published, even in the
A0nit1rr. Cardinal Jacobini
and the Pope are both deeply incensed at
what is, TO say the least, grave ofense
against ecclesiastical etiquette. 1t is doubt
iul whether the amateur diplomats will be
pardoned. Errington has taken comfort,
il is rumored, in tho delusive hope that he
will be made Baronet, and will be attach.

DUEL on a r>ssENohH TRAIN.
Ten shots Exchanged But None Of the
TraNeIers Mnrt.

BARSsvILLE, KAs., June s,-A fearful en-
counter took place on an East Tennessee
train. While passing through this
place passenger named Lawrence, from
Randolph, was in an intoxicated condition.
He was approached by Conductor E. L.
Nelson, who asked for Lawrence's ticket or
fare. Without further provocation the
maddened man laid one hand on the con-
ductor's shoulder and as he laughed said:
avon don't want any fare from me- do
you'll" He then drew knife across the
train officials neck. Con.
ductor Nelson was terribly wounded,
but had strength and courage TO
draw his piEtol. Lawrence Withdrew along
the aisle and did the same thing. Both
began firing at each other, and kept it up
until their weapons were emptied. Ten
shots we're fired. The train was running
rapidly and the iostling was such that the
aim OF neither aYrifed anything. Not one
OF the passengers was hit by one Of many
random balls. Engineer Sutton was ap-
prised by the ringing Of his bell that some
thing was wrong. Stopping his train, he
cane back to the passenger car. Conductor
Nelson was then such sight TO behold,
reeking with his own blood, that Mr.. Sat.
ton tainted. Fortunately for tho wounded
man down freight train was met at Burns
vile and he was brought back. DR.. G. J.
Clark wss summoned and did all in his
power for the injured man. 1t is not
thought that he is dangerously hurt.

PITTSBURGH, June s.-The announcement
Of Ebenezer Oliver that he would resign
from the Trade Tribunal, because he had
been discharged by the Mansfield Coal and
Coke Company, has caused some excite
ment among persons who watched the or
ganization Of that body and are anxious
that the Wallace bill, under which the
tribunal was created, should be fairly
tested. Many Of these persons fear that
Mr. divers resignation and the charge
that he has been victimizad will put
an end to the existence Of the Trade
Tribunal, and also end the prospect Of an
amicable settlement Of the difference
between the railroad coal minors and
operators. Up to noon to-day Mr.. Nc
Intosh, tie secretary Of the Trade tribunal,
had not received any word from Mr. Oliver,
and at the miners headquarters Mr.. Elan.
merry WAS equally ignorant ot his intentions.
Mr.. F!aunery is confident. however, that
whether Mr. Oliver resigns or not, the
tribunal will tinish its work. Speaking Of
the matter, he said: ave are determined
10 test the Wallace act thoroughly, and II
half the members OF the tribunal resign,
other persons will be iound TO take
their places" Operators with one ac-
cord refused to discuss the matter,
save to say that they did not believe Mr..
Oliver had been discharged on account Of
his connection with the Trade tribunal. a
gentleman VINO has studied the practical
workings Of arbitration more thoroughly
than any person in the State, when asked
for his opinion this morning, said: about
the truth or falsity OF Mr.. Oliver 3 charges
OF course know nothing, but predict,
without fear that the result will show me
10 be wrong, that the attempt
10 aibitrate under the Wallace
act will not be successful Ny res.
son for making this prediction Is that all
previous laws on the subject Of arbitration
have proven worthless when put into prac.
tical operation. There Is no use talking
about It. Any attempt to arbitrate dis.
putes between workmen and their employ
ers must be entirely voluntary TO be tuc-
cessiul. The creation OF the Trade Tribu-
nal was not entirely voluntary, for the op-
orators were forced into b; therefore it can.
not succeed. I look for the Tribunal to
break up at any time"

What the Manufacturers Organ Has TO
Hay About A.,

PITTSBURGH, June s-Regarding the
strike which was 50 happily averted in the
mills OF this district, the Iron Age says:
The threatened stoppage Of the Pittsburgh
rolling mills having been ayerted by the
action Of the manufacturers In renewing
the old scale OF wages, it may not be smis'
to inquire into the effect Of last years idle
ness upon the production Of finished iron
in that section. It Is su.horatively stated
that the immediate cause Of the decision OF
the Pittsburgh iron manufacturers to with.
draw their resolution to reduce wages, and
thus to avoid stopping their mills,
was the knowledge that their
Western competitors intend to con.
tiuus to operate their rolling mills on
conditional agreement with their hands,
and even in some cases on the bases OF the
old scale. Much OF the trade of Pittsburgh
would thus have been diverted to other
quarters, and it Is well known that it Is
difficult to regain trade which has been
lost. The bad effect OF last years stop.
page, when many competing mills were
also stopped. would thus have been inten.
eitied. To arrive in some measure at the
extent OF the evil consequences OF q long
cessation Of work by the Pittsburgh mills,
it Is only necessary to group few figures
from the statistics recently published by
the American Iron and Steel Association.
II the statistics OF the production ofrolled
iron, except rails, in the whole country be
| IL Z tkn nj ItF
the Pittsburgh iron trade will also be very
plainly shown. The total production ot
the United States in 1882 was . 265, ,95T
tons, as against 2,l55,346 tons in 1881,
which shows that the strike did not cause
decrease in the production Of the country
at large, but that. on the contrary, there
was an increased yield Of ll0,6ll tons. 1t
did, however, cause q decrease in Penn.
sylvania OF very nearly 10000 tons, aud in
Western Pennsylvania it caused o decrease
OF IS, 1913 tons.
Here, then, is very significantly shown
the result OF last years 3 four months stop
page. Il bent fted other sections ot the
country, and very uaiavorably affected
Pittsburgh and its vicinity. The decrease
in 1882, as compared with 1881, amounted
10 Is per cent, which is'a very large slice
TO be taken from the trade OF a year. OF
course the diversion Of trade from Pitts
burgh to Eastern mills was matter OF only
temporary effect That trade naturally
belonged to the district west OF the ALE
gheny Mountains, and it was ready to re-
turn TO Pittsburgh ss soon as the mills
there resumea operations. II the Pitts
burgh mills had closed for several months
this year, however, and their Western
competitors had continued in operation,
the diversion Of trade would have been a
much more serious matter, as It would
perhaps have been permanent in many

an interest in the American, and in 1862

Mr. Fulton made six visits to Europe,
travelling all over England, Scotland, Ire
land and the Continent, and his letters

millions, bat 1t is doubtful whether, after
the rebelIions aud famines Of recent years,
it is now more than three hundred
and fifty millions. The number Of
Chinese troops, as given by the native
authorities, is wholly unreliable. In 1923
it was said to have been l,26S,O0O men,
but subsequent careful inquiries reduced
this to 602,000. Even that IS probably too
high an estimate, for it is notoriously the

the same time the full pay, and only
