ALEXANDRIA, VA
r1rssDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 3.

Mp Most the expatriated German nihl-
list saws Senator Edmunds' anti dynamite
hill "means that at last the monarchs %
the money market have awakened TO Inc
fact that our hands are against them qu''e
.. much az against the aristocrats OF the
Old World" The fact that hat tactofy
IN Connecticut was blown up last week. anu
a dry goods store in New York wrecked
Sunday night, by dynamite, because the
owners thereof would not comply with Inc
terms of some of their employees, shows
that the dynamiters' hands are not only
aoainst, the monarchs of the American
money market, but against Americans VINO
give employment to American laoor'
Trouble of this sort, however, IS not sur
prising to those who are unsatished Wild
a look at the surface of things, for they
know that the sanctuary of asylum, nos
pitably extended by this country to the
oppressed of all the nations of the earth
except the Chirese-has loug been pro-
famed by such men as Most and Rosa, and
therefore, the manifestation of the legltl'
mate effect of the license given that profa
nation is by no means wonderful to them
It is hoped that Mr.. Moat's opposition to
the Edmunds bill may be sufficient to IN
duce its passage, for, if every vicious wretch
or enraged simpleton have it IN bis power
to throw dynamite cartridge into build
ings against any man in which he may
have even temporary grudge, no body's
life will be safe.

MYSTERIOUS DIsApPEARANCEs.-T
are now three men in this State whose mys
FERROUS disappearance from their homes in
the past two months cannot be accounted
for. These arc VIM H. Crawford clerk of
Bland county, Professor OFT, well known
German music teacher of Charlottesville,
and Henry Carter, colored, of Richmond.
The dead body Of man found in the dock
at Richmond few days ago was identified
by his wife as that Of Carter. Develop.
ments, however, go to prove that Carter Is
alive and at Work in the Southwest. a
letter has been received which purports to
have been written by Carter since the body
was found iu the dock. Articles found in
The pockets of the dead man. however, have
been identified by Carter's wife as belonging
to her husband. What seems to deepen the
mystery is that some Of the articles found
on tbs person Of the dead man are exactly
the same as those in possession Of Prof OFT
when he disappeared from Charlottesville.

The Socialists.

Two thousand persons gathered at So
cialist meeting last night in Concordia Hall,
in the German quarter of New York. 1t
was rumored previous to the meeting that
trouble would be caused by Justus Schwab
and Herr Most, aided by a number of their
friends, who intended to capture and con
troll the proceedings. The less radical ele-
ment of the party, headed by Editor Sche-
vilsch, of the Folks Zeitung, were deter.
mined to hold. the extremists in check. Po-
lice Captain McCulagb. of the seventeenth
precinct, attended the meeting with q posse
of men.
Mr.. Scbwelsh called the assemblage to or
der, and his radical opponents objected in
such way that a tumult ensued, in which
chairs, clubs and revolvers figured. Capt.
McCullagh commanded silence, and forced
his way to the platform, followed by his men.
Schwab saw him and shouted, ut is the po-
turned upon the officers, and Capt. McCul-
lagh was struck on the head with chair and
knocked down. He regained his feet and
at the point of their revolvers the police
kept the mob at bay. The socialists then
wanted to resume deliberations. and supple
mented their demands by drawing clubs,
knives and pistols.
McCullagh was reinforced in a little
while by thirty policemen. This enraged
the crowd still further, and they again at
tackled the police, who responded with their
clubs. and the rioters were badly punished
and many heads were cracked. With the
exception of officer Rott, who was slightly
cut in the face, and few bruises sustained
by Capt. McCullagh, none of the policemen
were injured.
Peter Brown, one of the rioters, had bis
leg broken, and had to be sent to the hos
pital. Justus Schwab was the oaly man
arrested. He skulked away before the riot
was over, but Capt. McCullagh found him
in his saloon on First street. He submitted
quietly to arrest. His bail was refused and
he was locked up.
After the fight pistol a dynamite bomb
and several of the short black clubs were
found in the ball.

EARTHoUAKE.-A subterranean disturb.
ance, an unmistakable earthquake, it is re-.
ported, was felt at Wytheville, yesterday
morning. A low. rumbling sound was
heard in many parts of the town, and by
large numbers of its wakeful inhabitants.
This extraordinary and unearthly sound
was followed by very severe shock which
is said to have shaken the most solid struc-
lures to their foundations. The people
were greatly alarmed, and at first did not
realize that an earthquake had passed I'M
der their town. Window glass is reported
to have been shattered by the shock, aud
the usual tumbling of crockery from hitch
en- shelves followed. A great portion of the
people, including the negroes, were terror
stricken by the visitation.

The REDUCTION in railroad freights on
Cumberland coal, to take effect next month,
makes it essentially necessary aud requisite
that the directors Of the Chesapeake and
Ohio Canal, who are soon to meet, shall make
q corresponding reduction 10 canal tolls,
that is if they hope the canal will bring any
coal to tide water next season. Many peo-
pie now believe that some at least of the
directors Of the canal instead of desiring its
prosperity are really doing all they can to
compass its ruin, in order either to profit
the railroads now engaged in the coal trade
or to build anolher one along its dry bed.
Their action upon the question of tolls at
their next meeting will go far towards de-
termining the correctness ofthis belief.

AGAIN THE oft-repeated rumor is revived
to the effect that the W., o. & w. R. R. is
to be produced to Berryville, where it will
connect with the Shenandoah Valley Rail-
road. There is no doubt that if the rumor
be true the profits of the road will be
greatly increased and that investments in
it will be lucrative. But the word of prom
ise has been spoken to the ear only to be
broken to the hope 80 often that but little
reliance is placed upon it now, and but few
will believe that the extension of the road
referred to will be made until they know
that it is actually in process of construction.
