THE STRIKING HUNGARIANS.
The Strike Now a Question of Enduranee-A
Sheriff Makes Several Arrests.

Mt. PLEASANT, Feb. 1a-The coke-region
strike, it is thought. will now settle down to a
mere question of endurance on both sides. The
action of the syndicate in closing down all works
and ceasing to turn out coke is looked upon by
the people here as q wise move, which should
have been taken two weeks ago. The entire agi-
tation among the strikers, with its story Of ar
son, riot and bloodshed. has resulted from the
excursions Of strikers to compel those employed
at the various works to quit. 1t is thought now
that when the source of the ferment
and confusion is removed there will not be such
a rally at the meetings. and reflection among
and destroy. The strikers look upon the edict
with Indifference. They are still perfectly sure
In their own minds that the operators must
finally surrender. They say that the lack of
coke will throw 100, 900 men out of employment
In other industries, and that pressure will be
brought TO bear upon the coke producers from
that direction even more embarrassing than
their own demands. The only trouble now
imminent is that which may result where at
tempts to make arrests are made, and also where
desperation will come for want of food. The
people who have contributed have looked upon
the efforts of the operators to keep the ovens hot
as an indication that they must have coke. and
would likely soon advance the price. The shut
down, however, gives the charity business the
appearance of lasting a long time, and it is a
question whether the committees can afford to
keep it up. 1t is thought now that no e%vlctions
will be made at this time.
At Connersville, Sheriff Sterling arrested FIVE
strikers, who were charged with having partici-
pated in the recent riot at the Henry Clay
works. The men offered no resistance.
The shutdown has removed a disturbing ele-
ment from the struggle. The men have no
"black-legging" to deal with now, and the men
who would work stand on an equal footing with
the men who would not, excepting that no
relief will be extended to the former.
The indications are that the resources of the re-
lief commission will soon be exhausted, and that
hunger will SOW seed for an uprising, which, it
is feared. will evershadow any of its predeces-
sors. The strikers assembled in groups to day,
and discussed the situation, but no united action
had been taken upon the latest move of the OPP
orators. The arrest made to-day created con-
siderable excitement, and for a time it was
thought the strikers would attempt a rescue.

The London Row.

LONDON, February 10,-By O'Clock a
crowd that numbered many thousands,
gathered in Cumberland Market. The
lowest criminal classes of London, re-
presented by a strong contingent, was
intent upon harrassing and insulting the
police. At 9 o'clock Hyndman. Williams
and other Socialist leaders appeared. and
were greeted with uproarious shouts of
welcome. They held a short consulta-
ton, and resolved to abandon the at
tempt to hold a meeting tonight, be-
cause, as they said, the dense fog that
prevailed prevented their distinguish
ing the true unemployed workingmen
from loafers. The announcement was
then made and the meeting adjourned
until Tuesday. AS the crowd slowly
dispersed. cheering for the Socialist
leaders, the disorderly element again
jeered at and stoned but easily drove
their assailants from the ground. Three
regiments of foot guards, two of cavalry
and battery of artillery were confined
in the barracks all day in readiness to
sally out at moments notice. The
vigorous action of the police of
South London compares favorably
with the inacion of the police at
the Trafalgar Square meeting on Mon
day. Mounted constables, armed with
cutlasses and revolvers, assisted the po-
lice on foot in dispensing mob of 5000
men near Elephant Castle tavern. A
gratifying feature was the fact that
many small tradesmen and numbers of
bona fide workingmen Joined in assist
ing the police to repulse the rioters,
who, dreading the encounter, quickly
dispersed. The police had been in
formed early in the.day of conspiracy
of thieves inhabiting the common lodg-
ing houses, to make South London a
starting point of a pillaging expedition.
Precautions were accordingly taken to
prevent disorders.
Midnight.-The city is quiet. The
crowds disappeared by 10 o'clock, and
the streets are now deserted. The
panic is subsiding, The scare Is with
out parallel in the history of London.
Tens of thousands of desperate men
gathered III the streets, and only needed
some one more reckless than them
selves to lead them to commit widest

any fiscal year, such outstanding certiti-
Gates shall be in excess in amount of the

tary of the Treasury shall retire and
withhold from circulation an amount of
such certificates received by the United
States for customs. taxes and public
dues equal to such excess until such
time as the same can be put INTO circu-
lation without increasing the amount
of such certificates beyond the market
value of such bullion.

A Queer Cnse

LONDON, February 1O.-An inquest
was held to-day in the case Of the death
of Mr.. Bartlett, merchant of Pimlico.
who it is alleged, was killed by chIoro-
form administered by his wife, who
wished to marry Rev. Mr.. Dycon, a
Wesleyan minister. A statement by
Mrs. Bartlett was read at the inquest by
her physician. She was l6 years old
when she was married TO Bartlett. They
made compact to live together merely
as loving friends. This agreement was
adhered to for six years. when her hus-
band began to encourage her affections
for Rev. Mr.. Dyson. Recently Bartlett
began to manifest renewed affection
for his wife. but she feeling it
to be her duty TO the minister
to resist her husbands advances
appealed to him to desist as be ha I q +
fiAnced her to Mr.. Dyson. The opeal
had only temporary effect, so sh re-
solved TO protect herself from her nus
band by waving chloroform in front OF
his face. On the night before his death
as her husband was retiring, she pro-
duced a bottle chloroform. which her
husband took from her. Upon awakiug
in the night she found her husband ly-
ing dead by her side. The affair has
created an intense sensation and is re-
garded as likely to eliminate in ons of
the most prominent causes celebres in
the criminal history of this country.

at which it was decided to order the
total suspension of work in Conneus-

incendiarism prevalent there. Members
of the syndicate do not know to what
extent the lawlessness may reach, and
do not want to jeopardize the lives of
their men and their property. A gen.

afternoon, and sent to all mines under
the control OF the syndicate.
