Pat RoOney's Attempt to Get Possession o
Ills Stepdaughter.

Pat Rooney's Attempt to Get Possession OF
His stopdaughter.
EAsrox, Pa, March 2S.-Two weeks
ago, owing to n quarrel, Miss Katie
Rooney left the company Of Pat Rooney,
her stepfasher, while in New York
State, and declined to remain under the
care Of either him or her mother.
She went to New York and soon made
an engagement with Parker and Nc
Carthy, managers Of theatrical COM
pany. Pat Rooney heard OF 1t and for
babe her to travel with the troupe,
Miss Katie paid no heed to the injunc-
ton, but came here on Monday with
the company. In the evening Rooney
also arrived, having left his troupe,
booked at Syracuse for the week, to take
care OF itself. He obtained warrant
for the girl, who is IS years old, charg-
ing her with incorrigible conduct. In
attempting to have 1t served he raised n
disturbance in the theatre behind the
scenes, and was himself arrested for
threatening violence to Miss Rooney.
Yesterday Rooney withdrew his first
charge and took out a habeas corpus,
and in the afternoon, as Mrs. Rooney
could not come to Easton to claim her
daughter, proceedings were adjourned
till Saturday. The girl went to Bethle-
hem last night to play, in charge OF Ia
Court officer. Rooney says he will stay
until he gets her.

4 RED HOT TIME.
An Interesting Scene In tho Canadian House
Of Commons.

An Interesting Scene In tho Canadian House
of Commons.
OTTAWA, ONT., March 2S.-In the
House OF Commons this afternoon, Mr..
Mitchell called attention to the dis
patches from Washington stating that
retaliation was threatened If the Domin-
ion government did not carry out the
stipulation of the tariff act OF 1879, which
provides that in the event OF certain ar
ticles enumerated in clause 10 being
placed on the free list by Congress,
Canada would reciprocate in like man
ner, Mr.. Mitchell said that il this
retaliatory policy were carried out
the people Of Canada would
have Just cause for complaint against the
Government for not taking steps to try
to prevent it. He held the Government
to be guilty Of a breach Of faith in not
carrying out the provisions OF the tariff
act and in refusing to grant the just
claims OF the United States. He asked
whether or. not communications had
been received from the United States
Government complaining Of breach Of
faith or offering TO extend system OF
reciprocity to Canada; whether any ans
wer had been received, and what that
answer was.
Sir John Macdonald said the course
OF the honorable gentleman in bringing
this matter forward was irregular, but
he wohld say that no application had
been made by the American Govern
ment on the subject,
Mr.. Mitchell-Have not United
States Consuls in this country made rep
reservations in relation to breach OF
faith on the part OF the Canadian Gov
ernment under section OF Act 70?
Sir John Macdonald (vehemently)-I
repudiate on behalf OF the Government
the statement that there has been. any
breach OF faith. The honorable gentle
man has no right to use such insolent
and supplementary language. If he
repeats II shall call for the protec-
ton OF the House, and no doubt
the House will protect me from such
coarse and supplementary language.
l say / repudiate the charge OF breach
OF faith. No representations have been
made to US by the the American Govern
ment, but Communications have been
received from American seedsmen ask
ing that the clause in our acts should be
given effect to. The government does
not forget, however, that we have seeds
men in Canada whose interests must be
looked after. (Hear, hear.
The matter is now engaging the atten-
ton OF the Government, but there have
been no official communiCations-not
even from consuls.
At another point in.the debate Sir
John Macdonald said that the clause in
the tariff OF ls79was entirely permissive
and was left to the discretion Of the
Govarnment.

THR COKE SYNDICATE.
Not a vestige Of it Left After
the Pittsburgh Meeting
THE CUT IN PRICES BEGUN.
Every Fellow Is Now for Himself
in the Market-cOke Down to
Dollar a Ton in Connsllsvllle
Region and May go Lower.

PrTrsBuRaH, Pa, March 2s.-There nc
longer exists even the semblance Of
Coke Syndicate. The climax in the dis.
agreements Of the operators was reached
yesterday afternoon.
To-day there is an open market. The
cut in prices is already said to have COM
menced. 1t comes from a reliable source
that coke has been offered at 81 per ton.
At the meeting yesterday afternoon
the breach between the operators kept
widening until all efforts to come to an
amicable understanding proved to be
fruitless and the meeting adjourned sine
die. 1t was not even agreed to try and
sustain the price Of 81 25. The market
was declared open, each operator being
at liberty to sell his product for what
ever figure he could get. Assoon as the
meeting adjourned there was rush OF
the operators to telegraph their custo-
mers that they were in the market to
sell as low as any other firm in the Con-
nellsville region.
To-day the result Of yesterdays meet
ing is being generally discussed in coke
circles. The general impression OF all
the operators seen was that all attempts
to form an Exchange and keep up the
price ended with the meeting yesterday,
and that another would not be held.
This, they said, meant that the price
would. drop, some predicting that it
would 90 as low as 90 cents. Said one
operator: 1.-THE sooner the bottom is
reached the better. For my part will
shut down my ovens II the price goes to
81. Ifit goes so low then the operators
will come to their senses and may con-
clude to agree upon some plan OF har-
monious action"
A member of one Of the larger firms
said: "I understand that coke is being
offered below 81 25. You can rest assured
that, now an open market has been de-
clared, we 90 into 1t to sell coke as low
as any other firm, ] don't care who they
be. We will meet every cut"
Another member OF the came firm
said: "There is not doubt that coke is
being offered below 81 25. know that
it was offered yesterday at 81. This Is
positive. No, sir, there will be no more
meetings Of the operators"
II has been q matter OF speculation as
to what was to be done with the coke Of
the producers Associations. The old
Syndicate members had two years
contract to sell all Of this on commission.
To-day it is said that this contract is also
annulled. Thisle leaves every operator in
the entire Connellsyille region indie
pendent to put his coke on the market
at whatever figure he can get.

An Organization Composed of Union and
Confederate Veterans.
New YoRK, March 2s.-A new thing
in organizations Of veterans Of the war is
the Independent Army and Navy Vet
erans's Association.
The object of this association is ito
maintain perfect union amongit mem
bes, to establish harmony and discipline,
to insure tranquility, to promote the OBJ
ject Of reconciliation between the blue
and the gray veterans OF lS6l-5, to main
tain true allegiance to the United States
Government and answering respect for
and fidelity to the Constitution and laws
OF the ladd, and to encourage the spread
Of universal liberty, equal rights and
justice to all men"
The representative of the Association
in this city in Phil Sheridan Post No. ].
Before adopting his name letter was
sent to the General stating the objects
OF the Association, and asking permis-
sion to use his name. The General, in
his reply granting the request, stated
that he fully approved the objects OF the
new organization. The Post was accord
ingly formed, and on March 10 adopted
rules and regulations. Here are two Of
them:
Comrades should enjoy themselves
with innocent mirth, treating one an
other according to their ability, but
avoiding all excuses or forcing any COM
rade to eat or drink beyond his inClina-
tions, or hindering him from going
when his occasion calls him or doing or
saying anything offensive or that may
forbid any free and easy conversation,
for that would be to blast our harmony
and defeat our laudable purposes; there
fore, no private quarrels must be brought
within our doors, far less quarrels about
religion or nations, we being only
brothers and comrades OF the universal
religion above mentioned; kindreds we
are also OF all nations, tongues and Ian
guages, and we are resolved against all
politics as what never yet conduCed to
the welfare OF any order nor ever will"
Comrades entering our Post must lay
aside all hatred and malice in regard to
past issues; yes, everything that may in
mony; we must fight prejudice in all
its forms, in fact, everything that may
hinder the forwarding ofthe pure and
sincere spirit Of our institution. Friend
ship shall guide us, loyalty be our armor
and vigilance our sword, TO make way
for reconciliation between our brothers,
North and South, East and West"
A Bureau of Relief Employment is
also feature of the organization, which
differs but little from the G. A. r., ex-
cept in admitting to membership both
Union and Confederate soldiers and n
few "patriotic honorary citizens"

Senate committee and Assistant Ser
geant-at-Arms Christy, then the draw:
ing room car, "Soudan, .Hespert," +" and
last the car containing the casket. None
Of the cars composing the train were
draped. The flowers which had been
received at the Waite residence had
previously been boxed and placed in the
car which was to contain the casket,
except the wreath sent by the President
and Mrs. Cleveland, which was taken to
the Capitol and placed upon the casket,
where 1t remained during the cere-
monies.
A telegram from St. Louis announces
that the train bearing Mrs. Waite ar
rived in st. Louis this morning too late
to make close connection for the Toledo
train, and that special train was imme-
diately placed at her disposal. She is
expected to arrive in Toledo at 10 o'clock

BERLIN, March 2s.-The Emperor had
another night Of ALMOST uninterrupted
sleep, the best he has had since the
operation upon his throat.
His appetite is good and his weightin-
creasing, which factsare regarded as very
favorable symptoms.
He was at work yesterday morning ut
8 o'clock. He looked at the rooms pre-
pared for his daughters, took his daily
walk with the Empress and Sir Morell
Mckenzie in the orangerie, and received
Generals Caprivi and Albedyll, Chiefs of
the Admiralty and the Military Cabinet.
He has directed its restoration to its ex-
act former condition Of the private
chapel at Charlottenburg. The marble
cross which Frederick William the
Fourth erected there had been replaced
by an old wooden one, and the old and
worn altar cloth has been repaired under
the Emperor's own eye.
The Emperor having taken the Muison
Militaire OF his late father, the establish
ment now numbers forty-two, namely,
twenty-five adjutant generals, six gen.
erals a Ia suite, and thirteen adjutants of
inferior rank. Several further distinc-
tons have been bestowed, among them
the title OF Prince OF Liegnitz on the
Emperor's cousin, Count William
Hohenau, who is the Oldest son OF the
late Prince Albert of Prussia by NOR
ganatic marriage. The promotion attracts
special attention.
Along with the improvement in his
general health, the Emperor's spirits
have greatly improved Of late, and be is
now almost as cheerful us OF old. A
great part OF the credit for this belongs
to Sir Morrell Mackenzie, who, as Pro-
fessor Billroth, of Vienna, said lately,
seems to be not only great physician
but also n great man. It is proof Of his
admirable understanding Of the Empe-
ror's character, that the latter, who at
first always regarded his visits with anx-
iety, is now unwilling TO part with him.
The Doctor, next to the Empress is the
person who keeps up his spirits best

New YoRE, March 2s.-Julius Bern

afternoon during a rehearsal Of music
for the Easter services.
Bernstein suddenly ceased playing,
threw the violin "a rare instrument he
has played for thirteen years. on the
floor, and jumped on 1t, smashing 1t into
splinters. Then he rushed from the
church, discarding his coat as he ran,
leaving the choir and his fellow.musi-

He stopped minute, on his wild run
through the misty rain down Fifth
avenue, To take off his shoes. He seem.

as he frequently turned his head and
looked iearfully over his shoulder. A
policeman arrested him in his fight at
FOrty-second street, but as he refused Ia
say anything in answer TO the questions
put to him by the policeman, and there
being nothing in his pockets to indicate
his Identity, he was sent to Bellevue
Hospital.
Some Of Mr.. Bernstein's friends, who
were with him in the Cathedral, told
