of miners will Immediately select their
committee to meet with the committee OF
the operators and select the arbitrary board.
1t is known, however. that the operators
will insist on dealing with the Hooking
Valley miners alone, and not with other
miners or officers of any association. This
is looked upon with great favor here, as
being the remedy for adjusting all difficult
ties in the future, and thus avoid all strikes

OIL CITY, Pa, Nov. 22.-Information
from Clarion gives the details of one the
most outrageous robberies on record. Last
Friday night three masked men entered the
house of James LiDe, in an out-of-the-way-
corner of Point township, and demanded
his money. To this he replied that was
none in the house. The villains then poured
petroleum ON him and set fire to it, finally
succeeding in extorting from him the
whereabouts of SIS, which they secured
and departed. Mr.. Lipe is quite an old
man and his burns and injurious are seri-
Gus. The men are believed to belong to a
desperate gang which has been operating
extensively in Clarion county. In view OF
the frequency of these outragcs the organ
ization of vigilance committee is being
seriously considered.

Kelley incident occurred. 1t was semi
officially intimated here if Austria did not
choose to accept the choice of the United
States as minister the mission could remain

discovered that Baron Won Schaeffer had

years, and was entitled to be pensioned and
he has been retired from service as the

Syindied by Contractors.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 22.-Some interest
ing discoveries have been made in the
treasury department regarding the manner
in which the government has been swindled
in the purchase of supplies for various
buildings owned or leased by the United
States in New York city. The facts, as far
as developed, indicate that collusion has ex-
listed between contractors for supplies and
clerks in'the treasury department., by which
the government has been regularly paying
from 100 to 800 per cent. more than the
market price for various articles needed in
public buildings in that city. The investi-
CATION now under way is likely to lead to
The resignation or summary dismissal OF the
guilty employees of the government. Secre-
tary Manning has directed Collector Hedden
to stop buying of contractors and buy in
the open market. This step will probably
involve the government in litigation.

Prayer and Stock Gambling.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-Stock speculation
under divine guidance is development of
the present boom in Wall street. 1t is the
vagary of Leonard Nathan Boscomb, for
merly licensed eXhorter in Free Meth o.
dist church. later faith-healer in Brook
lyn, and at present small clerk in the
Western Union telegraph Office. He has
long been an ardent advocate of the doctrine
of miraculous answer to prayer, and for a
time he figured in the Fulton street noon
prayer meeting. where the exercises con-
sist principally in reading and ranting re-
quests from persons in all parts of the coun-
try for special prayers. The rule
there is, however, to disregard
purely business cases. and to
pray only for spiritual blessings and those
temporal ones that relate to wealth and
morals. Bascomb was accustomed to so
word his petitions that. while seeming to
come within the regulation, they really
concerned his prosperity as dabbler in
stock speculation. This led eventually to
his practical exclusion from the service.
Lately he took up the plan of praying on
his own account for buying puts and calls
from Russell Sage. and within three months
he has done very well. indeed. He thinks
that he gets points from above in the form

election letter on the church question. In
it he says that Gladstone is shilly-shally,
and adds: make the support of the church

a scathing analysis of what he terms Mr..

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-Just at this

Mr.. Randall's Withholding of the appropri-

could be used to head off other legislation,
it is worth while to compare Mr.. RandaIPs

The Battle Field.

LONDON, Nov. 22.-The Servians have
besieged Widdin. A battle was fought to-
day, which was without decisive result.
The porte has proposed an armistice. 1t is
reported that Prince Alexander is unwilling
to listen to the proposition until he has eX-
PEELED the ServianS from Bulgaria. A
body of Bulgarian volunteers left Vienna
to-day for Sofia. Prominent in the ranks
were number of Sclav students. The vol
unteers were heartily cheered by the crowds
that witnessed their departure. The peo-
pie at Philippopolis have continued to man
itest great enthusiasm. Recruiting is going
on actively. Numerous officials have re-
signed to go to the seat of war. The Ser
Wan losses ON the 18th, 18th and 18th inst.
included eleven officers killed and twenty
two wounded. Emperor Francis Joseph,in
compliance with the request of Queen
Natalie has granted permission to doctors
Of the Austrian Red Cross society to go to
Servia. A dispatch from Tzaribrod says
that the Bulgarians have massacred the
Servian Lieutenant Kokitch, who was
found on the field of battle wounded, and
Servian Lieutenants Schivko and Ratkovich,
who were prisoners of war. General Lesh-
janin telegraphs that the Bulgarian troops

near Widdin have been enscOnced in the
fortress of that town and that the entire
district between the Timok, Belgradjik and
Lom on the Danube has been cleared Of
Bulgarians. A rumor is current here that
SlivnitZa has fallen. No official confrma-
ton of the report has been received, how
ever. The diversion by force of 5000
Servians in the direction of Sofia aided
Col. Topalovitch to win victory
yesterday. Thirty carriages containing
about twelve hundred wounded soldiers az
rived here to-day. The queens sister,
Princess Ghika. personally attended to the
sufferers and gave them refreshments and
and tobacco. A large number of ladies as
sisted her in the work and every building
in the city is crowded with wounded sol
diers. The Servian prisoners at Sofia state
that King Milan intended to celebrate his
birthday in Sofia and that he promised his
soldiers a rare feast of roast mutton and
good wine on the OCCASION. Dis
patches from Servia are silent
in regard to Yesterdays battle with the
exception of the vague statement that the
Bulgarians are retreating. The public at
Belgrade1is anxious and alarmed. King
Milan, it is stated, desires to retrieve his
losses before agreeing to an armistice. A

behind Mr.. Randall eight days on the de-
ficency bill, four days on the military acad-
emy bill and eighteen days on the pension
bill. On the postoffice bill they were tie.
On all other bills Mr. Hiscock was ahead Of
Mr.. Randall all the way from three to thirty
days. The only bills Mr.. Randall
introduced before the holidays were the
military, academy and pension bills,
neither of which was likely to provoke
much debate. Mr.. Hiscock did not get the
pension bill in till after the holidays, but he
got in before the holidays in addition to the
military academy bill the army. consular
and diplomatic and Indian bills, all of
which consume time by inviting debate.
On general average of the twelve bills
Mr.. Hiscock was ahead of Mr.. Randall
sixteen days on each bill, and in short

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-"The changes
in this department are few, very few, COM
pared with other departments of the gov
ernment," said Chief Clerk Nash, of the
postoffice department. ''The reason is not
that the old clerks are hedged in by politi-
cal influence, for if find that a mans
work is unsatisfactory 1 don't stop to in
quire who are his friends, but recommend
his removal Immediately. When an enl-
ploye is rendering satisfactory service to
the department his removal is not thought
Of The reason for the comparatively
small number of changes is that the post
Office building is regarded as more of
business establishment than any other de-
partment of the government. 1t comes
home more closely and more directly to the
people. They see its work and feel
it more clearly, and they insist
upon the greatest possible efficiency. Be
sides offices in this department are not
coveted by politicians as offices in other de-
partments are. In no other department
have the employees as much real hard work
to do. 1t has always been so, though per-
haps not to the same degree as when the
administration was Republican and when
Republican politician wanted soft
snap for his friend he did not seek it in the
postoffice department. This is is not the
place for soft snaps Changes of clerks
have not been more numerous here than they
would have been in any well-regulated bus
mess establishment employing the same
number of hands. The regular clerical work
of the department has increased 80 per
cent. in ten years, while the
number of clerks has been increased only 2
per cent. The growth of regular business
has been still further increased by great
deal of extra work consequent upon
change of administration, but, nOtwith
standing these facts, the work of the
department is further advanced to-
day than it has been at any
corresponding date within the past ten
years. Last year, the estimates did not go
to the treasury from the auditors office un-
til the 18th of December. To-day, almost
month in advance of that date. all that
