NASHVILLE, Tenn. March 6.-The case
of the State against VI. 7. Polk the default
ing State Treasurer, who died suddenly Q
few days ago, will be called in the Supreme
Court and debated. 1t is reported that Polk
some time ago made deed of his large In
terest in Mexican silver mine to one Of his
counsel for the benefit Of the State, but it is
not positively known whether this is the
case. The State has already entered suit
against his sureties for the amount of his
bond, 100000. AID against his estate for
the amount embezzled. 1t is presumed that
the suit will be revived against his executor
and that lengthy litigation win result. The.

Secretary FoIger on the Patten Bill.

WASHINGTON, D. C., MIrch 8.
Secretary Folger suggests several
amendments to the Patten Bill, and says:
doubt whether the people would APP
prove its provisions. 1t is certainly
open to the charge of being partial to
the banks; and its effect, whether in
tended or not, would seem to be to
defer calling in security bonds until such
times as bonds not used as a basis OF
circulation shall have been called, and
do not think it wise policy to thus dis
eliminate in favor of banking associa-
lions, and against all other holders OF
bonds of the Government"

in Harrison Distric: hold meetings
in church for concentrating plans
to drive George and William Carter
and William TroxtiiI from the State.
They were tried in court for the muir

were guilty. They have been notified to

A Pathetic Case.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, March 6.-During:
the illness Of Rev. Father Shaub, of ST..
Mary's Church, who was stricken by small
pox while administering the last rites of the
church to a victim of the dread disease, he
was attended by his farmer, who faithfully
pursed his SOD al through his sickness. In
the last days of his illness the priest was de
Iirious, and the day before he died assaulted
his father most grievOusly before the other
attendants could restrain him. After his
death the elder Shaub returned to his home
in New Albany, whence word now comes
that he is dying from the effects Of the IL
juries inflicted by his dying son. sifid2

Corning, o., All Torn Up Over The Rec.ht
Expulsion of Andy McDevitt from the
Town-A War of Factions Likely to Result.
COLUMBUS. o., March 6.
The trouble over the McDevitt abduc-
ton at Corning is getting worse. Every
turn of affairs seems to irritate il, till there
is danger of violence. Andy McDevitt,
who promised the mob last Sunday night
that he would never set foot in the town
again, returned Yesterday accompanied by
his friends carrying rifles. McDevittwas
given a royal reception. Fully 1000
people met him at the depot and
escorted him to his store, where
he held an ovation during the
day, but did not remain in the town over
night. He and Father b. NJ. O'Boylan
have, however, not as yet been in the
town at the same time since last
Sunday. The reverend father left for
New Lexington on the train previous
to McDevitt's arrival, expecting to re-
turn on the next train, but when he
saw the McDevitt party on the cars he
did not board it, and remained at the
County Jail with the members of his
congregation, who are under arrest. The
case of Father O'Boylan was postponed
till Friday. The others will have
no hearing till the Grand Jury
meets next Monday, as they waived a
preliminary examination. Andy McDev-
lit came up to New Lexington in the al
ternoon, and Father O'BOylan returned
to Corning. McDevitt swore out twelve
more warrants, making twenty-six in all,
with more to follow. To cOmplicate the
present desperate social condition of this
mining region, four arrests were made
for the lynching of Richard Hickey, two
weeks ago, and efforts are being made to
have Andy McDevitt indicted for killing
Ira Quickbaum in self-defense a
year ago. There is a desperate state
of affairs ut Corning and Rendyille.

Klein induced McCue to drink three

McCue's widow sued Klein for dam

appeal, the Supreme Court confirms the

perhaps three thousand miners have man

believe my experience is that OF almost
eyery other operator between Charleston
and New River" This state of affairs
would probably be somewhat different If 1t
were not for the fact that most Of the men
are married.
As is always the case where 50 many
persons are engaged in single industry
there are numbers Of unreliable and snift-
less men who are left to provide for them
selves and those dependent upon them IN
the best way they can. This fact has been
amply demonstrated in thu Kanawha valley
during the past two months, and II Is among
such men and their families that poverty
holds high carnival. A gentleman said TO
me. less than week ago, that the homes OF
some of these men furnish the saddest PIC.
lures of want he ever beheld, and ne added
that in his opinion the charity Of the opera
tors dwirdled to nothing in the eyes OF Peo-
PIE who possess spark Of pity after rushing
in upon one of these unhappy homes.
There are many miners who do not
choose to avail themselves OF the credit
system, and who live in their own houses.
The majority Of them own little patches OF
land, which yield small crops OF corn, Po..
tatoes and other vegetables, which scores OF
miners are compelled to buy at the COM
uany's stores. Numbers of these men seek
employment in other sections OF the coun-
try during the idle season, camping to-
gether in little huts, doing their own cook
ing, etc. They are the hsppiest OF all, no
doubt. When the mines in which they are
employed resume operations they return aud
go 10 work.
The miners union is the only organiza-
ron here, and at many places 1t IS not
kept up. y few years ago there
were several assemblies of Knights Of Labor
but they soon went down. The miners IN
the Ksnawha Valley are not organized,
and this condition at this time is the best
guarantee against q strike when the works
resume. In most of the mines the men get
3 cents q bushel for screened coal, and this,
| am told, is considered 8 fair price. There
is perfect harmony between the miners and
the operators. Within week or so 1t Is
expected that most Of the men will be at
work again. which is the best news that we
have heard for long time. GIRTH.
