Krupp, the celebrated German gun
maker, is making hollow steel shaft for
the Harry Brown, one Of the Pittsburgh
coal fleet. This, it Is believed, is the first
shaft oil this kind everGrdered for an Ohio
river steamer, and II it proves successful
they will no doubt come into general use.
The st. Lawrence, which tied up at tho
Belmont mill last Saturday on account OF
the ice, steamed up yesterday and got
away for Pittsburgh at 10 A. N. She had a
good trip for this season and will probably
reach her destination in good shape, as the

The Andes is advertised to leave this

SrEUBENvILLE, o., Jan. 5.-In the Court
OF Common Pleas Of this county suit has
been entered by the Farmers Co.opera-
tive Trust Company Of Pennsylvania, the
defendants being the directors of the late
"Wool Growers Exchange, doing bust
ness in West Virginia, Eastern Ohio and
Western Pennsylvania. The defendants
named are William NJ. Lee, John Floyd,
y. D. Whitman, Benjamin Griffith, D. S.
Gault, II. @. Vance, S. NJ. Orr, JOHN Me-
dill, John Faris, John Good, John +.
Haftshorn, Nathaniel Wells, A. J. Ault
and Virginius p. Dnvall. The suit is to
recover S., l05, with interest from Jan. s,
1883, on a note given by ]. D. Whitman,
treasurer Of the Exchange. The Exchange
was organized in May, 1878, and assigned
for $4,000 in April, 1883. The plaintiff
claims the defendants obtained o preten-
ded certificate Of incorporation from the
Secretary Of State OF Ohio, the capital
stock TO be $4,000, but that less than
S., 600 and not over 81 900 had ever been
subscribed or paid in. Plaintiffs further
claim that the office of the Exchange was
removed to Philadelphia April l, 1881, and
contrary to the provisions Of the pretended
charter. The defendants are principally
farmers in this section.
Another suit ofimportance was entered
Saturday against the city OF Steubcnville
by ex-Mayor James Marion. During the
winter OF 1852, the "gum boot" man ex-
citenIent prevailed in this city. Mayor
Marion, by advice, hired some OF Pinker-
toms detectives and paid for their work.
The city refused TO reimburse him, hence
the suit. The amount claimed is $l,003
with interest from January 2, 1881.

Army against the Incorporated branch.
The suit is replevin one to recover brass
horns, musical instruments, &C., in the
hands OF the American branch. Some
time ago Major Moore, the head Of the
army in the United States, had the Saliva

Booth, of England, took exceptions, and
commissioned Frank Smith as Moorc's
successor, who was ordered back to Eng

a jury. The American branch here out

PROBABLY FELL INA FIT.
allen Hilton, A Nightwatchnnn,
Fonud Unconscious on the
street This Morning.

At half-past o'clock this morning a
newshoy on his way down town discov-
cred man lying unconscious on the
north sidewalk OF Brigham street, one
block and half east of Main. The boy
scrutinized the person and recognized Mr..
Allen Hilton, nightwatchman at the
church tithing yards. He proceeded at
once in search OF assistance, and
TO learn the cause OF a sober, re-
liable man being in such condition. Up
on examination, Mr.. Hilton was found
breathing slowly in an unconscious con-
dtion. There was severe bruise on the
temple and left side of the head, from
which the blood flowed freely.
He was taken in conveyance to his
home in the Twentieth ward, where the
proper care was given him TO restore con-
seriousness, but up to l O'Clock this after
noon the injured man lay in the same
dazed state Of mind. His brother, Mr..
David Hilton, in charge of the tithing
yards, stated to the nquiring re-
porter that the general presumption
as TO how he came by the injury is that
he started home shortly after finishing
his work this morning, and probably took
a fit and fell against the rough stone wall
beside which he was found. Nothing
about his person was disturbed, which is
u reason to believe it was not the work of
malicious enemy.

The RicycIe RacpS.

AT the final bicycle contest of the sea-
son, held on Washington Square yester-
day afternoon, n very creditable turnout
witnessed the races. Twenty uniformed
knights OF the wheel paraded the streets
to the music of the band. The first race,
for the champion gold medal, was COM
peted for by VIM. Woods, who has held it
twice, and Walter Jennings, who won two
straight mile heats in about three min
utes each. The second race for another
gold medal was contested for by Joseph
Woods and Theodore Angel. Mr. Angel
won the prize in 3: OS and 10.
In the third race for silver medal L.
&. Brooks and Lewis Peck entered the
ring. Mr.. Peck took the lead and easily
kept it to the surprise of Brooks and his
friends. The club has improved great
deal the past season and Captain Davis

lars. quarters, dimes, etc. What were
they going to do with this? Why flood
the South with it in buying cotton, and
so thoroughly disgust the people OF the
Sontb with silver il possible? They knew
perfectly well that subsidiary coinage was
n legal tender for only So and that the
bankers of the South would not wish TO
receive on deposit such a vast amount OF
subsidiary money. They would not take.
from the treasurer OF the United States
legal tender silver dollars, for they well
knew the people of the South were only
too glad to get hold OF them and that it
would help the cause of the silver men.
Their object was to strike silver its death
blow il possible, and this is the dastardly
course they pursued.
Seventh-It is time the intelligent BUSH
ness men of America studied up the fact
of this conspiracy against silver and the
prosperity of the nation. The silver
question will come up again in Congress-
this winter, and If the oddities succeed
in stopping the coinage OF silver in the
United States, as they are determined to
do, then look out Tor lower prices, further
stagnation in business and generally
paralyzed condition Of affairs. No man can
get rich by throwing away one-half his re-
sources no more can nation, and to stop
the coinage of silver is doing just that and
nothing else. Silver and gold are the life
blood Of commerce. No nation has ever
been bankrupted by having too much of
these precious metals, while many ma
tions have for the want of them. Silver
and gold have served the purposes of
money for man from the earliest
ages, and the effort to divorce them
has brought disaster upon every ma
ton that has thus far made the at
tempt. Certainly the people of the United
States are too wise and too intelligent
to be induced by England and her
dupes, the bankers of New York and Bos-
ton, to commit hari-kari by either de-
monetizing silver or suspending its coin
age. One fact is worth hundred argu
ments, and therefore the fact that France,
the greatest bi-metallic nation in Europe,
is the most prosperous that she carries
$14 in silver per capita without any finan
cial tornadoes on that account must weigh
more with intelligent men than all the
scarecrow arguments of the oddities.
When they attack you with their
Financial tornado" system, quietly point
them to the facts in regard to the peace
full and prosperous circulation OF silver in
France, and their frothy arguments will
go to pieces like the waves of the ocean
upon the rock-bound coast of mighty
continent. CleUeland Plain Dealer, Oct. 5.

THE THIRD DISTRICT COURT.
A Change iu the Progrnmme-Trini
of MiIco for Stabbing
Campbell.

The Third District Court opened this
morning promptly at 10 o'clock, with a
decided change in the programme. The
Judge announced that the setting OF the
civil docket would take place tomorrow
morning.
The case of the United States against
o. f. Due, for polygamy, was continued
on request OF Attorney Mclaughlin.
The case OF the People of Utah VS..
Samuel Howells was continued on the
ground of the absence OF the defendants
counsel.
Tie case Of the People against Nicholas
NIilco, charged with assault to commit
murder, was called for trial The de-
PENDANT was arraigned and pleaded not
guilty.
The jury for the case was drawn from
the regular panel without question to
their u. G. belief, and were passed. They
were: John q. Labrum, Joshua H..
Midgeley, Oscar wilkins, william
Sleeves, Orson D.. Romney, James w.
Burbidge, Adolph Anderson, George
Craner, w. C. Lyme, T. G. Armstrong
and Leroy Holt.
Mr.. Il. d. Hoge appeared as counsel for
the defendant. A. j. Peacock, Mr.. Tate,
Charles Roper and A. S. Burner were
present as witnesses for the prosecution.
Nicholas Milco, the defendant, was pres
ent, and Peacock was the first witness
called. He testified that the affair hap
pened between l and o'clock on the
night OF August 10th, 1884, in the Cabinet
saloon, on Second South street. AT the
time the defendant, Alonzo Campbell,
witness and some others were absorbed
in game of stud-horse poker. Milco ac-
cused Campbell of stealing his checks,
and finally told him to stop it. Campbell
said, "What are you going to do about
it?".s'and started for defendant with a
stool. Milco got up, pushed the stool
away, when Campbell drew chair at
him and Il scuffle ensued. Milco ran to-
ward the door to get out of the room,
when Campbell threw chair at him and
cried out, al am stabbed" l do not
remember seeing the knife, but DIR. Bow
ers came and dressed the wound in the
back OF Campbell. NIilco was suisse
quently arrested by the officers.
During the examination of witnesses,
Milco stated that Campbell switched u
card, and the jury, DESTROYS of knowing
the Interpretation OF the terms used in
playing the mysterious stud-horse poker,
asked for an explanation. Mr.. Varian
attempted to make plain the phrase and
was voluntarily assisted by tin-horn
gambler, which created considerable
amusement in the Court, and even caused
the serene countenance OF the Judge to
break out into an occasional smile. The
case occupied all the forenoon session.

SALT LAKE GLASS WORKS.
A Common dpbIc Industry to be
started ars 81 All IL inds of GLASS;
ware to BIC Made ut Home.

Some weeks ago the DEMOCRAT gave
an article on the Feasibility of several
kinds of manufactures, among which was
mentioned that OF the making of glass.
The practicability OF the scheme was at
the time regarded by Messrs. Culmers,
Smell, and other business men as good,
and it is pleasure to now see the project
pushed to the issue by such cnterprising
citizens as Edward Taylor, q. f. Culmer,
Jacob Moritz, Frank Armstrong, Aaron
Keyser, Hugh Watson, John Evans and
Moses Taylor.
These gentlemen raised subscription,
sufficient to start the Salt Lake Glass Fac
tory, and have incorporated themselves
into stirring organization to carry out
their well-conceived plans. The capital
volunteered amounts to 10000, of which
about $4,000 is now paid in. A location
will soon be decided on. All parties
owning property, lying convenient to u
railroad track where switch can be run,
had better confer with the secretary, Mr..
John Evans, at once.
The success of rrthe undertaking is
doubly assured by several of the mer-
chants of Salt Lake agreeing to take suffi-
cient glass TO make the concern pay.
This factory will be something after tile
one in Denver, which cost but $4,000. 1t
can be run very much cheaper here, as
sulphate of soda, a principal ingredient,
can be gathered ut the Lake in
winter time at no cost to speak of,
while in most other places it is made by
decomposing salt Plenty OF fire sand is
obtainable less than half mile north OF
OF 80, -
thing from black ash down can be secured
at home, with no importations to speak
Of.
The first manufactures will be fruit
jars and colored bottles. In the course
of progress, window glass and all the
finer products of such an institu-
ton will be produced. Beer bot
ties will be great feature in
the running OF the establishment. Glass
bottle makers will do well to see the Sec
rotary about immediate employment. 1t
is hoped the scheme will prove success
full and that other enterprises will spring

The members OF the Methodist church
and their friends held very enjoyable
social last evening in the church parlors,
readings, vocal and instrumental music

tertainment Miss Ida Hitchcock recited
one of her choice selections, "Kentucky

Cellarer," with good effect; and trio by
Messrs. Harper, Bennett and Newcombe
was well appreciated; Miss Halyerson's
vocal solo was rendered very nicely, and
Mrs. lift contributed select reading.
An organ solo by Mrs. Wilson was one Of
the enjoyments OF the evening, and the
simultaneous playing of Mr.. Bennett up
on harmonica. guitar and triangle, cap
tured everyone All present were de-
lighted with the programme.

"Local Optiony on the Chinese.

Senator n. p. Jones, of Nevada, in
Congress, while describing the char
acter and nature of the Chinese, once
said, "They corrupt us by their vices
and ruin by their virtues.'' No better
words were ever uttered. The civiliza-
ton OF the East, il we can call it such,
and the civilization OF the West, can
not exist together. One or the other
must go down. Which shall it be? In
the contest between freedom, progress,
elevation, morality, social purity, law
and benevolence, and serfdom, foul
ness, filth, rogucry, vice, theft, murder
and remorseless cruelty, the American
people, believe, will again be found true
to themselves, and in this second trial OF
antagonism once more save their country.
Ii it is right to have local option in
liquors, it is certainly more so TO have
local option in races.

At the Theatre.

"Ay Partner" at the Theatre last night
was witnessed by large audience with a
good degree of appreciation. The play
is rife with tragical rs well as comical sit
uations, which hold the attention of the
audience. The central figures in Mr..
Aldrich's "My Partner" beginning with
himself, are Whiting, Bergman, Buckley
(who was last here with 'In the Ranks
company, Drew the Chinaman, and Miss
Goldthwaite.
While the piece is filled with a variety
OF characters and situations, no oppor-
tunity is given Buckley, Goldthwaite or
the other support to exhibit thor posi-
bilities. The applause was frequent, and
all in all the play seemed to please, al
though lasting until after II o'clock. To.
night the company will be given stronger
parts in "In His Power" and rs the play
has proven a great hit in the East and
Europe, it will undoubtedly take we'll
