Carne gie's Fight.

The progress of the contest between Ed
ward Carnegie and the Knightsof Labor at
Braddock, Pa. will be watched with great
deal of int. est. Mr. Carnegie is tie largest
owner of the Edgar Thompson Steel Works
at that place, and il requires about 5000
men to run them. Last December the works
were shut down Tor annual repairs, and
when Mr.. Carnegie was ready to re-
sumo, he made his woriunen
proposition relative to wages for the coming
year, which they refused to accept. In
week or 50 they made Mr.. Carnegie
proposition which he refused TO accept.
TIE works remained closed and the work
men continued idle In March. Mr.. Car
negc made the workmen another PROPOSE
ton which was not satisfactory.
Mr.. Carnegie them concluded that he
would run his works without the
Knights of Labor, and he made his prepare
ticns looking to that end On last Sunday
he sent 100 Pinkerton detectives, armed
with pistols clubs and knives, to Braddock,
aud the Sheriff of the county has 40 depu-
ties under arms. The works were opened
on Monday with small force of non-union
men, who were protected by the detectives.
What the outcome of the contest will be
it is impossible to predict with any degree
Of certainty. Mr. Carnegie is a very de
termined man, and it is said that he will
close all his mills, Seven in number, before
he will permit himself to be defea ed.
The workmen have already lost in wages
about $500, 900, and the families of many OF
them are in a suffering condition. If they
see that there is a probability of the mill
being run without them there will, i'll all
probability, be serious trouble, A good
many Of them are Hungarians, and they
cannot be depended upon to preserve the
peace.

The leaders concluded that to transport
100 to !, 800 men and provide accommoda-

right, too. Besides, $50 Tammanyites will

Mr.. David Dudley Field thinks the condi-
ton Of American divorce laws is a disgrace,
as well Us a serious compile .tion. Bad as
the state Of affairs is, however, he thinks it
preferable to any regulative action on the
part of Congress. I'VE live in danger Of
drifting into a consolidation of the States"
he says For this reason l would not go
another step in that direction, and so
would not accede to the proposal of placing
marriage under the control of Congress"
Wasn't there a movement some time ago to
call n convention of representatives from
the different States, to agree upon uniform
divorce laws to be submitted to the reSpec-
tive legislatures! What has become of the
movement! 1t should be taken up and Wig

PASQUALE MOR|NO.

he could lay hold of to make a row about.
But this was his chance
He uttered an ejaculation, rushed into the
room, seized his rival by the collar. and
dragging him to the top of the stairs helped
him TO descend them with n good kick.
Giovanni went stumbling down, preserving
himself from any severe injury by clutching
at the baluster. Pasquale was q heavier,
stronger man than Giovanni, and the latter
only hurled a volley of Neapolitan explosives
and curses at him, and threatening TO get
even. went muttering Town TO his room.
Two or three of the dodgers met him and
heard him cursing Pasquale. They guessed
how the ground lay, and laughed ut him.
Every morning Pasquale used to get up at 4
o'clock, drink his cheap coffee and eat Il big
piece of bread, 30 that he could 90 out with
his garbage-hook and bag to make the round
of the ash barrels before the garbage man
came around to empty them at 7.
The garbage hook was n piece of iron that
looked u good deal like n poker. The end of
it was turned in at an angle of forty-ive de-
grees, SO that Pasquale could poke about in
the dust heaps or ash barrels and fish out any
- find" that he might strike.
Well, the next morning Pasquale got up
drank his coffee, and taking his professional
implements, went out to ply his vocation.
At the corner of Rutgers street and East
Broadway a policeman met him trudging
along with his sulky look. The policeman
was near the end of his beat, which was one
street further north. He walked on to this
street and then turned back after standing
for n few moments. But at that time of the
day. though it was summertime and bright
enough, there was nothing doing and he saw
no passers-by.
So the policeman turned back, and when
he had gone two and n half squares aud
had nearly reached Monroe street, on Rut-
gers, he saw something that surprised him.
There on the sidewalk, flat ON his back,
with his hook by his side not far from his
right hand, and his bag at his feet, lay Pas
quale Morino, stone dead.
The policeman stirred him and shook him,
but though the body was warm Pasquale was
utterly done for. There was no heart beat,
no pulse.

He bore only one mark of violence on his
person. This was a wound in the right eye,
in the corner near the nose. The hole was
about the size of a 22-calibre pistol bullet.
There was n good deal of blood on his face,
but nowhere else. His clothes his hands, his
sack. showed no blood stains.
1t seemed simple enough. Pasquale Morino
had been shot dead. But the policeman,
who was only a few blocks away at the time,
had not heard any shot. Was it possible for
him TO have been SO preoccupied as not to
notice the sharp crack of II pistol q few
blocks away on that quiet summer morning?
Stranger still, inquiry through the neigh
borhood showed that nobody had heard any
pistol-shot hat morning. The stores were
not open ut that hour of the day. The only
one was n small store where q milkman from
across the river used to leave milk which was
distributed in triting quantities to the
families in the neighborhood. Two boys,
one fourteen and the other eleven, used to
carry it around. The proprietor was there
at the time of Pasquale's taking off he was
not a square away, and yet he had not heard
the shot!
Moreover, when the doctor probed the
"ouhu NV "a" hhe VIZ puliCt. Tx u
that the hole was two inches deep, so that it
reached into the brain. There was no trace
of g%unpowder on the eyelids or nose of the
unfortunate Italian, so the shot was not fired
from close by. But if the bullet got in two
inches and Pasquale fell on his back, rs he
was found, how could it have fallen out ?
Thu dead mans skull showed no confusion
or fracture, so he was not killed by his fall.
The sidewalk was searched thoroughly and
the gutter carefully examined. But there
was no bullet in Pasquale's head and none
outside of it i'll the near neighborhood.
1t did not seem plausible that a man should
be shot by a pistol that was noiselessly dis
charged and with n bullet hat disappeared as
soon as il had reached the brain, But there
was the round hole which marked the pas
sage of a 22-calibre bullet two inches into
Pasquale Morino's head.
Well. if the ragpicker had been shot, who
was the assassin? Inquiry led to the fact
that the Morinos, if not on any better terms
with each other than husband and wife need
to be, stood tolerably we'll with their neigh
bors. There was only one way that any sus-
picion pointed. This was towards Giovanni
Scala.
There were three witnesses who testified to
meeting him on the stairs the night before
muttering angry things to himself. To one
who had asked him what was the matter he
had only replied by a curse, coupled with
Pasquale's name.
Mime. Morino admitted that her husband
had rather roughly sent Giovanni Scala
about his pushes the evening before.
Blu the strongest point against Giovanni
was this; One of the Italians who slept on
the fre-escape balcony had been awake when
Pasquale left the house. He had not been
gone two minutes when he also saw Giovanni
Scala slip out of the basement. with only q
shirt and trousers on, and leave the court.
