be controlled by parole evidence. Arguments were
made by Hon. E. r. Hoar Hen. asa French for
the board, and Hon. VIM. CASTOR and Hon. Charles
Theodore Russell for Prof. Smyth. Judge Allen,
while not finally passing upon the matter said he did
not consider the record of the board sne

the latter case record would be conclusive. but the
position of the board of visitors peculiar and
novel He believed the record should be treated
as bill in equity, which evidence could be of

necessary to determine was in putting in the record
certain statements made by Prof. Smyth, which
were said to qualify paragraphs which had been in

Denounced and Repndiated BY Several AS

PoTTsvILLE, Pa. Feb. 1S.-The general joy
over the announcement of the termination of
theFminers strike is somewhat marred by an I'm
gering apprehension that perhaps. after all. the
end is not yet The striking railroaders were
furiously indignant over what they denounced
as an unprincipied betrayal, and they and their
leaders will do all in their power to Illustrate the
order for resumption. A largely attended meet
ing of Local Assembly 1859 was held in this
city to-day, at which. by a unanimous vote. the
action of Master Workman Lewis was vigorously
denounced. The joint committee was in session
all day. and the members admit that the action
of Lewis was not approved. Tomorrow will be
busy day all along the strike line. Meetings
will be held in all sections, and the malcontents
will make desperate efforts to balk the action
of Master Workman Lewis.
President Corbin sent to-day TO this city a
personal donation of $40, 900, to be distributed
among the miners for the relief of their families
The miners of the Mount Carmel district have
repudiated the action of Master Workman
Lewis, and resolved not to return to work until
notified to do SO by the jointdemand committee.
