THE BIG STRIKE AT PlTTsBURe.
Only Ten Out of Thirty-eight Manufac-
turers Sign the New Scale of Prices-A
Gloomy Outlook for the Workmen
The Strike Extending.

| PtTTSBURG, June 1.-The workmen in
the iron mills where the new scale has not
been signed went out on strike this morn
ing. Thus far 10 out of the 80 iron mills
in this district have signed the scale, but
there does not seem to be much prospect
for a general resumption in the near flu
ture. Among the iron manufacturers
there seems to be a determined opposition
to the terms proposed by the union. If
| their utterances are in earnest the chances
for Il speedy adjustment of the diihculties
are exceedingly slight. The Amalga-
mated Association authorities express
themselves confident of coming on top in
| the present struggle.
Eleven firms in this district have signed
the scale. In this district careful esti-
mate shows that $4,000 men are idle and
1900 working. West of the Alleghanles
IS, 600 men, averaging in wages 81 per day
each have been thrown out of work by
the strike.
NEW York, June 1.-Mr. Abram 5.
Hewitt to-day said that he did not think
the strike of the iron workers in Pittsburg
and the West would affect any interest in
this city or neighborhood, the Amalga-
mated Association of iron and steel work
ers extended over the whole country, put
it was only in the Western districts that
| it was insisting on the adoption of the
| scale submitted by its committee to the
manufacturers as there was a falling in the
market and the capacity for iron manu-
| facture in this country is much greater
than was required the Western trouble
was not likely to be reflected in the east.

CRIMES AND CASUALTIES.
ATRocIous MURDER IN NEW YORK.
A Drug Clerk is Most Brutality Murdered
by Unknown Parties-His Skull
Crushed and Throat Cut From
Ear to Ear.

NEW YORK, June 3l.-Richard Hands,
night clerk at Crawford's drug store, 12O
Hudson street, was murdered last night
by some unknown parties. When the
day clerk came on duty this morning he
found Hands seated in chair in little
back room where he slept. his skull
crushed in and his throat cut from ear to
ear His bed had not been occupied, in
dicating that the deed was perpetrated
early in the night A pestle with blood
and hair adherng to it was found and is
believed to have been the weapon first
used. There were no evidences of a strug-
gle and it is thought the blows on the
head were from behind and the throat
cut after the clerk had sunk in his chair.
AS yet the police have no clue to the
murderer.
Hands was unusually popular and was
not known to have an enemy. He lived
with his wife and two children opposite
the building i'll which was the drug store.
On Saturday night about II o'clock his
wife took his lunch to him as usual and
then left him in good spirits. He was pre-
pairing his breakfast this morning when
the tdings of his terrible death were borne
to her With a cry of anguish she fell
fainting to the floor and it was feared for
some time that she would not survive the
shock.

Finally Granted His License.

During the summer, when the applications Of
physicians for license were at their highest, Dr.
James Z. Breeze's request for one was refused
by the county clerk. That officer claimed that
the Doctor failed to produce diploma, and he
could not obtain a license under the time
clause of the statute. The Doctor asserted
that he was graduate of the Druidic University
of America, located at Lewiston, Me-, and would
in time secure the necessary papers. The mat
ter went on until yesterday. when DR.. Breeze
presented certificate of his graduation from
the institution, emitting him to the
degrees of doctor of medicine and
doctor of bellies lettres On &C.
count of the peculiar government
of the university the diploma itself could not be
obtained just now; but it was urged that the GER
tifcate, intermediary document, carried
with it all the force and authority requisite as
far as the public is concerned. Another doeu-
ment is issued to each graduate written in CHM
brio characters and language. This is said to be
sacredly reserved from any public inspection,
leaving to the intermediary paper the duty of es-
tablishng graduates identity with the law and
public. This certificate appears in the vernacu-
far of the country in which it is issued and to
which the person certi6cated belongs. County
Clerk McLain was still doubtful about the force
of the document as a diploma and took the ques-
the Judge that the institution is one
of reputation, and has full power to
carry on business under the laws Of Maine and
New York. DR.. Breeze said the institution in
this country was the head-center Of its schools

for ages" said the Doctor, "and founded Oxford
University, England 1t has schools in all coun-
tries" He finally got his license, it being the
impression of the judge and clerk that the in
termediary certificate would meet the require
ments of the law

HANDSOME CURTAIN.
Englishs Opera house now has a drop-curtain
which is not excelled in artistic elegance of
drapery in the United States, East or West The
curtain was hung yesterday afternoon, and last
night large audience had opportunity to note
its many beauties The picture in the center
represents scene from ancient Rome, looking
down the Tiber. The palace of the Caesars rises
on the left On the right, barely showing in the
distance, is the Castle of st. Angelo In the
dim distance is the Bridge of Statues
The bend of the river is in the
foreground, and the shallow water,
with the large rocks rising out of it makes fine
effect The atmosphere in the picture is es-
pecially good, and the sky denotes the time to be
sunset, the ghnting rays of the departing god of
day falling across the bosom of Father Tiber
The drapery effect is admirable The outside
drapings are of crimson plush, with gold fringe,
with points of plush in peacock blue. Next to
this is a celestial blue plush showing turn over
OF pink satin-an exquisite combination of colors
and fabrics Under this is artistically shown a
body of old gold satin, with garnet embroidery.
The center, around the picture, is banner of
white puff satin, hanging from heavy carved
cornice, which is surrounded by lace drapngs.
Across this banner is dado in Bremen blue en-
broidered in q beautiful floral design with gold
tasseled fringe on the banner Below this are
marble steps, rejecting the gold tassels and the
varied colors of the drapery. Over this marble
are laid two widths of richly colorsd velvet car
pet
The curtain valued at 81 000 was painted by
Frank Cox, whose studio is in the Grand Opera
house, New York, who was assisted in the work
by Clark Cox, younger brother Both these
gentlemen were in the city yesterday to hang
the curtain and note its effect Manager English
expresses himself as highly pleased with the cur
tain, which he certainly should be.
