throng upon the floor of the Senate Chamber

from the large additional number of chairs
brought in for the purpose and the sombre dra-
perry of the chair of the deceased, the hall wore
its accustomed appearance. Before III o'clock
great crowds had gathered about all the gallery

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
New YORK. March l3-The Methodist Epis-
copal and the Protestant Episcopal churches will
next week go into open antagonism on the tenn
perance question. Each desires to impress It's
way of reform on the State Legislature with a
view to influencing the members in the forth
coming enactment as to liquor. Some change of
the existing law is nearly certain. The Church
Temperance Society is an organization of Protest
ant Episcopalians headed by Assistant Bishop
Potter, and embracing most Of the city rectors
and it advocates moderate drinking instead of
total abstinence. 1t has sent to Albany bill
fixing high license for alcoholic beverages, and
the ministry is requested to promote that meas
ure in the pulpit and elsewhere. The Method
lists are strong for total abstinence. At this
weeks meeting got the city pastors of that demon
ination it was voted to preach tomorrow in favor
of submitting constitutional amendment to
the people prohibiting the manufacture and sale
of rum in the State. These sermons will be
followed by special meetings during the week,
and tho sentiment thus aroused will be directed
upon the Legislature.

WASHINGTON, March 13-Civil- service Com
missioner ton was talking to me the other
day about torgan. whose sale Of pictures
and bric-s in New York is now attracting
so much a. mtion and money. I remember well,
when she was little girl, was her Sunday
school teacher. Together with her two sisters,
they came every Sunday to my class and said
their Sunday school lessons. Then they lived
with their father, on Dey street, in New
York Since that time many things
have happened, and I am sorry to say
that I am afraid the principles AMI precepts
tried to lmDsrt did not have much weight After
her marriage, whom she became wealthy, she
forgot she had two poor sisters and went so far
as TO refuse to speak to them But there Is
retributive justice In IT all. She died without
will, and ali her money goes to the poor sisters
whom she refused to notice in her life. She was
good Sunday>school scholar. but l am afraid
the lessons she learned there aid not impress
themselves on her mind If she refused to know
her sisters because they we're poor and she was

The valorous Labor-styike Hero,

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
NEW YORK, March 13.-The publishers of
cheap fiction are in mad haste toput forth stories
made up of labor strikes. Every establishment
in that line of business has gone at it tremend-
ously. Two rival story papers here are printing
each an edition of million copies of sheet
containing the opening chapters of a novel on
the subject, and these are forwarded as fast as
possible for free distribution in cities where me-
chanics most numerous, especially where
strikes in progress. Ten-cent books, too,
are being hastily printed In some instances
old novels revived or adapted, and in others
rapid composers are debating the matter to
shorthand writer's. There are six large concerns
in this line of publishing, and about all their
presses are working strike fiction. Indians
detectives and scouts are for the time being rele-
egated to the background, and the hasty crop of
heroes are leaders of strikes, whose valor is ex-
cessiye.

THE ENJOYS PARTING THREAT.

LONDON, November 20-On the text of
his speech to the London corporation,
showing Radical tendencies ON the ques-
ton OF local coal and wine duties, the
Standard bitterly attacks Lord Randolph
Churchill for doing what he can to discred-
1t the Conservatives, especially in casting
imputations upon the property-owning
classes as distinct from the working
classes. 1t says: ''If the unfortunate
owners of property are to be bullied by
Conservative Finance Ministers as well as
by Radical Ministers, the prospect before
them is gloomy indeed" The Standard
fears that Lord Randolph has hitherto
been judged with an excess of charity.
The impression created by his latest efu-
sion, it says, must be undone speedily and
the Conservatives will expect their leader
to take the needful steps to disown in the
name of the Cabinet the mischievous ideas
promulgated by Churchill.
The Pal Mall Gazette admires Lord Ran
dolph's pluck in reproving friends as well

MORE WRETCHEDNESS..
COnnellsvils Coke Operators Consider the
Mems Demands Unjust
AND THEY REFUSE TO GRANT THEM.
A Strike Of $4,000 Workers Will be Or
dered at Once.
POWDERLY AFTER BUTLER'S SCALP.

PIrTsBURG, Pa, November 20.-The
Connellsville coke operatives sent a letter
TO the officials of the Miners Amalgamated
Association to-day rejecting the PROPOSE
tions of the latter to settle their differences
by arbitration and declining further con-
ference on any point raised until past
promises of the men had been full
filed, and a disposition shown to
do what was right The letter
states that arbitration has frequently
been tried and failed to give satisfaction.
Advances of almost of every kind had
been granted to keep the peace, but the
work promised by the men had not been
performed. There has been no advance in
coke since April 1st, and nothing in the
condition of the market to warrant it.
The miner. now say they will insist upon
their demands and will order strike
of the $4,000 workers in the coke regions
at once.

went to the studio at the hour fixed and
was to be met there by well-knOwn
sculptor, who had cOurteOusly undertaken
to do the modelling himself BY some un-
fortunate mischance he failed to put in an
appearance. Two apprentices were vigor-
ously stirring the liquid plaster of Paris,
or whatever villainous compound is used
for the purpose. After about half an
hours waiting it was decided TO proceed
in the great mans absence, and was in
vited to disrobe.
A much-beplastered white sheet was
wrapped around my neck and shoulders
tightly, and my face and hair were liberal
ly creased to preeent the plaster sticking
to the flesh. Pieces Of paper were stuffed
in my mouth, nose and ears, and | was
told to shut my eyes. No sooner had /
done 30 than my prosecutors commenced
pouring the liquid on my head. One
poured while the other pressed the rapidly
hardening compound so as to fill every re-
cess and get cast of every feature. They
poured great deal too much on, and
soon my head was encased in a mask as
hard as iron. The heat was insufferable.
l could not move my head, for the awful
weight threatened to dislocate my neck if
l did; my eyes seemed being pressed into
my brain, and the paper circlets not prov
ing adequate for their purpose began to
feel the first symptoms of suffocatiOn. /
could not call out, and l believed myself
to be dying
But my trouble had barely cOmmenc-
ed. The apprentices had not fixed the
center-board, or slit, properly, and when
they meicifully decided to release me they
found the cast would not come in half as
it usually does. In a successful operation
the two halves are Joined together after
removal, and a perfect reproduction Of the
face and head easily reproduced. But in
nv case both dividing board and grease
had been overlooked, and the only course
left was TO smash the mask Off Mallet
and chisel were used, producing an effect
like conclusion Of the brain. Finally my
face was freed, and was able to breathe,
and make q few remarks TO the boys on
their carelessness-n

New YORK, November 20.-After the
choral funeral service in the Chnrch of the
Heavenly Rest, on Monday, the family OF
ex-President Arthur, the pall-bearers and
the immediate friends will be conveyed by
special train provided by Chauncy NJ.

net, were amongst the callers at the de-
ceased Presidents residence this after
noon and accepted the invitation to act as
pail bearers. Calls were also received
from Miss Emma James, of Washington,
ex-Surveyor Jas. L. Benedict and Mr.. and
Mrs. C. L. Rives. A dispatch was also
received from Judge Samuel BlatchfOrd
stating that Chief Justice Waite, Justice
Harlan, Justice Gray and himself would
attend the funeral.
In response to various oilers ot ulnereht
organizations to join in the cortege in uni
form or otherwise, Mr.. McMichael says
that appreciating the courtesy of these
offers, ne is still obliged to add
that in order to prevent the obsequies
of the ex-President from assuming an ap-
pearance of display it has been decided not
to accept the tender of the participation of
any military or civic organization as there
is to be no parade, the funeral being pri-
vate. No provision will be made for
the carrying to Albany of any person
other than members of the family and the
pail bearers. No committees or delega-
tiOns of any kind will accompany the
body, which will be taken by rail directly
to the cemetery beyond Albany, where the
interment will take place.

Ofthe Late Strike In the Packing Houses
After Buffers Scalp.
CHICAGO, November 20.-The following
is published here to-day: 'It was reported
yesterday, and the report seems well
based, that secret committee would be
sent here early next week by General
Master Workman Powderly to investigate
the causes of the last strike
at the stock yards. The report went
on. to say the action was taken at the
earnest request of many Knights of Labor
who have been unable to learn why the
men were called out after having been
ordered back by Committeeman Barry. To
the order generally the cause of this second
strike has remained as much of mystery
as to the general public, and the belief
that it was political move on the part Of
District Master Workman Butler is grow
ing Mr. Carlton, before his return
to Philadelphia, is said to have
pronounced the strike as the dirtiest piece
of business he had ever encountered. 1t
has become so evident that Butler and the
crowd about him made tremendous mis-
take, from which thousands of families at
ut the yards will suffer the coming winter,
that most strenuous efforts are to be made
to fix the responsibility somewhere; and it
is said by those who ought to know, that
no one is more anxious TO do this than
Powderly himself Hence this secret
committee, which will find plenty to do
when it arrives"

The Four Daring Fellows Finally Rescued
Alive.
SOEE EXCITING SCENES ENACTED.

CINCINNATI, o., November 20.-One of
the most destructive fires that has occur
red in q long time in Cincinnati started
shortly after 3 o'clock this morning, in

were awakened, and gathered at the
windows facing the fiery furnace, where
they watched its progress, not without
apprehension, but without panic.
The fire department responded promptly
and its members performed heroic work in
their daring battle with the flames, attested
by the list of wounded. One, pipeman
named John Clark, perched on Hayes
truck ladder high up in front of the burn
ing structure, held his place until the fall
ing cOrnice threatened TO kill him. Even
then he refused TO come down, and his
comrades pulled the truck away 10 save
his life His hands and face were blistcred
by the heat
The department guarded as cflectually
rs il could, and with great success, against
the spread of the fire 10 adjoining build
ings About o'clock, when the fire WAS
well under control, the floors gave way
with some members of Company I, who
were carried Ia the cellar. After great diff
fculty they were all rescued alive. They
were Captain Ed Halstad. seriously but
not fatally hurt; Captain NJ. j. lliggin-
son, also seriously Injured, and PiIeman
Kuhn and Bushkamp, who were not dan
gerously hurt. There was some damage
done TO adjoining buildings, hut is was
not heavy.

600 and $500, 600 each The building he
l0nged 10 Herman Mack and to the Mar
Gus Fechhcimer estate. The loss on them
is placed ut $50, 900 each. Both buildings
and stock were amply insured.
