war for years. Every now and then a sympa-

of graves scattered about over the country,

ago Gordon Turner and six of his confederates
killed William Lane in Bell county. Some little

800 more New York Democratic patriots.
In the meantime the anxious and faithful In

from the White House patronage table may as
well hang up the fiddle and bow, and turn
their thoughts to the land above, were they
will be rewarded for their good work on earth.
It looks like they will not get any reward
from this administration and the sooner they
realize it the better it will be for their peace
of mind"

missioners took hold of the matter, visited the
company, got a proposition from the officers,
carried it to the men, and had it accepted in a
trice. The principle of arbitration was agreed
to on both side. There should be a means of
legal arbitration provided in every State for
these industrial disagreements, and then all
the power of the government should be
brought to bear to force both parties to the
controversy to respect the decision.

By the will of John B. Cough the bulk of
lis possessions go to his relatives, Mrs. Cough
being given absolute power.t to revoke any of
the requests made except the one to his broth

dozen charitable institutions but the great
part of his estate is left in the hands of his
widow and relatives. The testator was not a
crank, and there will probably be no occasion
for an expensive will contest.

of the Chess, Checker and Whist Club, about
thirty members being present. DR.. Znckertort
played with tho white and Steinitz

Thereafter the play was more l~eisurely. After
thirty-six moves had been made. a recess was
taken till 1880, when play was resumed and con-
tinued until the eightysixth move, when Stein
itz resigned. The next game will be played on
Thursday, March Ii. This Is regarded as by far
the best game of the tournament.
Zukertort's playing time was three hours and
ten minutes, and Steinitz's four hours and fifty
five minutes.

Nanticoke,s Buried Miners.

WLKEsBARRE. Pa, March 5.-The situation
at Nanticoke is becoming critical. Last week the
officers of the Susquehenna Coal Company re-
solved to abandon the work of rescue, and to
leave forever entombed the twenty six men and
boys who met their death at No. / slope on Dec.
Is, last. Against this decision the miners of Wy
oming Valley rebelled, and in order TO give ex-
preston to their feelings, about eight hundred Of
them from Nanticoke, Ashley, Wilkesbarre. and
other places held a meeting at Nanticoke last
night. 1t was finally decided TO send a commit
tee to Superintendent Morgan to.day, and de.
mand that the work of rescue be continued. A
resolution was offered that all miners and labor
es in the employ of the company stop work and
refuse to enter the mines until the work of re-
covering the bodies is recommended, and was
adopted without a murmur of dissent.

with a remarkable trial, interest in which
will be much more than local. 1t will be re-
membered that, a few weeks ago, a number of
leading citizens were put under arrest for par
ticipating in a lynching, in which a man was
killed. They were held for murder, much to
their establishment, and were remanded to Jail
to await trial. These men, like the New Or

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.
Evidence Showing Slight Improvement OF q
Number Of Leading Centers of Trade.

NEW York, March Especial kilograms ia
Bradstreets this week reveal further improve
ment in some lines at cities whore gains have
been noted within a few weeks. The more con-
splcuous are Chicago, Kansas City, Boston and
Philadelphia The features are Of the same
character as those previously noted. There ID
less evidence of gain in the volume of sales at
the smaller cities, notably at Memphis and Des
Moines; the reverse is true az indianapolis and
Norfolk. TIL cut rates on the TranscontinentaL
lines are causing heavy shipments of goods east
from San Francisco. A special from Daven-
port, Ia, reports that California oranges have
driven other oranges out of that market, and
that receipts are increasing. The general in
dustrial situation is rather better. The strikes
at the Amoskeag mills and McCormick's reaper
works are failures, and work is likely
TO be resumed soon at both. The street
car strikes in New York and Brooklyn
are ended, and the remaining difficulties will be
arbitrated. There is rather less confidence at
several Western pig iron centers that prices are
likely to be advanced in the near future, inas-
much IS any higher figures will encourage idle
furnaces to blow in. Production at present is
about equal to consumption. some Lynchburg.>
Va, pig-iron has been stored at New York.
Merchant bar-iron is dull. Anthracite coal Is
still weak and low in price, although there is q
better prospect for a comparatively early ar
rangement as to mining during 1886 than has yet
existed.
The dry goods trade is. on the whole, slightly;
better, principally at Boston and Chicago. at
the former city the higher wages paid mill
hends has resulted in advanced quotations for
some grades of brown and bleached sheetings.
Print cloths are off l per cent. with one report
that last weeks figures have been refused.
Cotton and WOODEN goods are both frmer. At
chicago there Is a frmer demand for spring
fabrics. Flannels and woolens have advanced.
Wool is quiet, with prices somewhat in buyers
favor. In some few cases quotations have been
l per cent. lower than a week ago.
There is no change in the sugar situation, and
consumption is behind last year. Coffee is
frmer on account of higher rates Of exchange
on Rio Janeiro. Dairy products are lower in
consequence of poor export demand for cheese
and fuller receipts of new milk butter. Spices
are easier, resulting from poor Distributes
trades.
Wheat is 1ac higher on the week. This is due
to speculative influences largely, as the expoft
demand is no larger. Provisions have been de-
pressed and lower though slightly higher at the
close.

Miss C~LEvELAED's tan-colored footman, that
is to say, her colored footman in tan livery,
has kicked up a great dust in the halls Of Con-
gress, where the opponents Of Democratic
simplicity most do congregate. The mem
bers who led. the country to believe that
Grover Cleveland would, after reaching the
White House, '~'restore the primitive customs
of the forefathers," chop his own kindlings
and do his own marketing, also insisted that
1t was rather expected by the public that she
would wash the Presidents dishes, and there
were persons who confidently looked forward
to seeing her sweep the White House steps of
a morning. These fond hopes were blasted
some time ago. The people long since ''tum-
bled" to the fact that Democratic simplicity
is a thing of elegant banquets, choice wines,
magnificent costumes and snobbery without
limit; but the advocates of the cherished idea
have been slow to learn how they are be
trayed. The appearance among them in their
own sacred halls, however, Of a lackey, and a
lackey in tan livery, is a matter they cannot
overlook. 1t is bad enough that such exhibit
tons are permitted in the White House CORR
doris, but to have this evidence Of Democratic
decadence and corrupting luxury thrust
shamelessly under their very noses is hardly
A So nf
sight Of this disturbing footman has not yet
subsidized, but still agitates the congressional
heart to it's depths. What the reformers are
going to do about it is not made clear, but it
is plain that if the liveried functionary shows
himself too frequently at the Capitol he must
be prepared for the consequences. Democrat
ic members Of simple and primitive tastes are
not to be insulted with impunity.

"THE Senate committee on military affairs
at its meeting to-day discussed the Fitz John
Porter bill, and decided to report it to the
Senate with a majority and minority report.
Tn committee stands evenly divided. The
majority report, in favor of the bill, will be
signed by Senator Sewell (Rerublican), who
has alway@ been a strong admirer of General
Porter, and the four Democratic members of
the committee, and the minority report
against the bill by General Logan and the
other four Republican members. The pros
pect now is that it will pass by nine majority,
assuming that all the Senators except Chase,
who will not vote on it, are present and
counted. There are t~hirty-four Democrats
who will vote for it, and they will probably
be supported by Messrs. Sewell, Pike, Riddle
berger, Sabin, Hoar, Stanford, Cameron and
Jones, of Nevada. This will give forty-two
votes in the affirmative and thirty-three in the
negative"
So reads a Washington dispatch. For
many reasons it were better that this ever
lasting Fitz John Porter case should be got
out of the way. He will be restored to the
army, and a premium thus paid to conduct
that once brought him within range of mill
tary execution; but this is the "era Of recon
ciliation," and such a result seems inevitable.
But it is a vindication that will never twin
dicate.' Against such arrangements as Gen.
Logan has made and will make In the Senate,
and as Major G. w. Steele, of this State,
made in the House of Representatives, the
votes of a solid Democratic majority, the
larger portion of them ex-confederates, will
not wash the stain from Fitz John Porter's
'scutcheon.s The speech of Major Steele in
the House gives facts that will make history.
The vote of Congress is potential enough to
put the disgraced General on the army rolls,
when there is a willing President, but it is
not powerful enough to reversssthe verdict Of
history.

other communities, North and South, that

Louisiana Board Of Pardons have done well in
convicting political murderers and in refusing
to commute their sentence in answer to an
enormous petition. This action is certain to
have a wholesome effect. The probability is
that no 'boss' will be so quick on the trigger
