OBJECTION TO COAL.

At One Time 1t Was a Capital OHense to-
Burn 1t as Fuel. :
The discussion of the probability of
there being a deposit of coal in the
Thames valley and under the city Of
London, of which there seems to be
considerable evidence, recalls some
interesting facts connected with its
earliest use in that city. When
coal was first introduced into,
London as fuel, very serious objec-
ton was taken to its use. 1t appears
that in the beginning of the four
teenth century brewers and smiths of
the city, finding the high price of wood
pressing hard upon their returns, re-
solved to make some experiments with
coal, but Immediately an cutlery was
raised against them by persons living
near the breweries and FORCES. the.
King was petioned and law was
passed prohibiting the burning of
coal within the city. Those who tried
it, however, found the new fuel to be.
so much superior to wood that they
persisted in it's use. But so deter.
mined was the Government to sup
press what was regarded as an intoler-
able nuisance that a law was passed
making the burning of coal in London
capital offense, and it is recorded
that one man at least was executed
under that law.
1t would appear that the ladies were
most bit erly opposed to the use of
coal for domestic purposes. They con-
sidered the smoke to be ruinous to,
their compilations and would not at
tend parties at houses in which the,
Objectionable fuel was used. Some
persons went the length of refusing to,
eat food of any kind that had been
cooked on coal fire. Hardware Trade,

Five of the Best Steel Plants IN the Coun-
try Brought Under One Management
with Capital of $2j,OOO,OOO.
CHICAGO, May 3.-There was filed with
the Secretary Of State at Springfield yes
terday by the North Chicago Rolling
Mill Company, amended articles of incor-
poration increasing their capital stock
from 5000, 900 to S25, 100000. The officers,
directors and stockholders of the COM
pany were in session all the forenoon
and none of them could De seen. This
action at Springfield, however, indicates
that the proposals for the consolidation
of the three companies operating IN this
State have been ratified and the conso1-
idation practically arranged. It is I'M
derstOod that the agreement provides for
the consolidation of the North Chi
cago ROlling-Mills Company and the
Union Steel Company, and the purchase
outright by these two Of the entire prop
erty Of the Joliet Steel Company. The
new company will be known as the Illi-
nois Steel Company. When it gets into
operation it will have entire control Of
five of the best plants in the country.
Two Of these are in Chicago, one in Mil
waukee, one in South Chicago and one at
Joliet and it is believed that the con-
solidation will greatly facilitate the BUSH
ness and make it much more profitable
by doing away with competition and
utilizing the plants to the best advantage.
1t is claimed that all the works will con-
tinue to run full-handed and that as many
persons will be employed in connection
with them as formerly.

HUNTING FOR GORE.

A Crime and a Resulting Tragedy in New
Boston, Tex, Sets the People by the
Ears and q Bloody Outbreak Imminent
Between the Factions.
TExARKANA, Ark, May "a high state
of excitement prevails at New Boston, a
small town on the Transcontinental rail-
way, twenty-five miles west of here, over
a prospective tragedy that is hourly ex-
peeted to take place. Some weeks ago in
that vicinity young lady, a Miss Sallie
Mitchell, was assaulted by a negro. who
entered her bedroom at night. Miss
Mitchell was the affianced wife of young
man named Tom Lynch. The negro was
arrested, but while the officer was taking
him to Jail, he was shot in the head with
a load of buckshot and killed. As to who
fired the shot no one was able to tell, but
it was the general belief that Lynch was
the responsible party. F. NJ. Brooks.
lawyer of New Boston, who had partially
raised the negro and was much attached
to him. since it's occurrence has
frequently denounced the killing.
A few days ago Lynch claims to have
found a letter lately written by Brooks
and very damaging to the latter, in that
it teemed with ISLANDERS upon several Of
the towns most highly-respected ladies,
and counseled the burning of the town by
a party who thought he had a grievance.
Wednesday Lynch posted circulars de-
nouncing Brooks on the line of this letter.
Brooks went for his gun, saying he would
kill Lynch on sight. Friends of each
armed themselves with shot-guns and
Winchesters, and when last heard from
were looking for each other about the
streets. All the parties to the affair are
game and desperate, and as there seems
no chanCa for an amicahIe Settlament a
bloody tragedy is almost sure to result.

OKLAHOMA TOWN SITES.


Circular Letter of Instructions From
General Land Commissioner Stock-laEer
In Reference to Town-Site Entries In
the Oklahoma Country.
WASHINGTON, May 3.-The General
Land Office is daily in receipt of letters
asking information in regard to town.
site entries in Oklahoma. Several circu-
lar letters containing information and
instructions relating to the question have
already been issued. But still much con-
fusion seems to exist in the public mind
on the subject. Yesterday General Land
Commissioner Stockslager sent the fol-
lowing letter of instructions bearing on
this subject to Inspector Paisley, at King
fisher, Oklahoma:
In reply to your letter of the 9th ult.. bave
to state in reference to TOWNSHIP entries in
the Oklahoma country, that the registers and
receivers of the proper district land offices
were instructed on the subject by the circular
OF April ]. 1889. wherein they are referred to
sections 23S1 and 23SS of the United States Re-
vised Statutes and instructions hereunder
contained in the circular of July 8, 1886, SUBJ
division III, pages and 5. The statutes and
instructions referred to are exceedingly clear
and definite. In the absence of officers proper
~ qualified to make entry in trust for the in
habitants OF a town. there can be no parties in
interest except the inhabitants. 1t is
equally clear that a private individual can
not be recognized party in interest
without showing the actual existence of the
town with ''inhabitants'' as contemplated in
the law and instructions. the circular OF July @
1881, being clear and definite as to the proof
quired. The registers and receivers are in
structed, in case of an application to enter by
party in interest, in the absence OF the proper
ofcials, to report to this Office. Should any such
cases be presented. prompt action is contem.
plated, to prevent any possible irregularities Of
the character you npprehend In the mean
time 1t is not considered that any more definite
instructions are necessary.
