HEAVY FAILURE.

A Big Iron Firm in Pittsburg Go Under.
Cause of the Failure.
PITTsBURG, February 21.-Graff, Ben
nett g. Co, iron manufacturers of this city
filed deed of assignment to p. N. Miller,
of Pittsburg, to-day. The failure was a
great surprise, as nothing of the kind was
looked for. In 1883 the firm failed for
about $1,200,0OO, and were granted an ex-
tension. Since then they have paid about
two-thirds of their indebtedness, and we're
supposed to BIS dong well. The cause of
the failure was the investment of
all their profits in extension of
their plant. No statement has yet
been made, but it is understood that the
secured liabilities are about 100000 to
$800,000., The latter consists of notes
for ore and other material.
Among the liabilities is mortgage for
$45O,000, held by the New York Life In
suranee company, which is now yet due.
The assets are believed to be about $780,
900. Judgments aggregating $4,000 were
entered against the firm this morning.
The total liabilities are in the neighbor-
hood of $1,200,000.

ATHENS, February 21.-The examination
of witnesses in the Rogers -O'Donnell
case progresses rapidly. The gist of the
testimony shows so far, that Rogers
and O'Donnell had personal diff
Guilty year before the fatal
night; that they subsequently made
friend; that on the night Rogers was
sent for to arrest O'Donnell, who had a
pistol and was beating old man Lafeyn up
with it, Rogers went to the scene, and
intended to pursuade O'Donnell to give up
his pistol and submit to arrest
O'Donnell refused, and told Rogers
he would surrender to nobody,
and that if he could shoot faster than him
to try it. O'Donnell then started Off.
Rogers grabbed at him, whirled his pistol,
and the shooting began. Some witnesses
say O'Donuell fired first. Others, that
both shot together. At the first hre
Rogers was shot through the right
arm and dropped his pistol. He stopped
and picked 1t up and fired with his left
hand, until his pistol was empty. There Is
a conflict of evidence as to the length of
the intervals between the fret rapid shoot
ing and Rogers last two shots,
some claiming it was twenty or
thirty seconds, while others claim it was
less. The testimony will be closed to-
morrow. This case is celebrated all over
Texas and elsewhere. All the testimony
was closed at 5:30 o'clock, and
the court adjourned until to-mor-
row, when argument of counsel begins.
The state proved no material facts dis
tinct from those related above. The de-
Tense succeeded in showing that threats
had been made by O'Donnell against
Rogers. The counsel will occupy most of
tomorrow, and the verdict is not expected
before Friday.

Collieries Resumed

SHENANDOAH, Pa, February 21.-There
has been general resumption of work at
the Reading collieries this morning. In
dications, however, point to the men
going on a strike again in day or two.
The company have already, as they claim,
broken its avowment not to victimize the
men. This they say was done in the
general discharge of engineers and other
who refused to hoist, or handle coal
during the late effort to scab the
eollieries. Master Workman Lewis, who
ordered the resumption of work, says he
will investigate the matter, and if the
facts are as stated, the strike will he re-
sumed inside of three days, and will in
clude not only every miner in the SchuyI
kill region, but the englneefs, firemen
pumpmen, and everybody else employed
about the mines, both above and belov
