He May Have Suffered Cronin's Fate.

Some weeks ago Congregational minister of
Walsall, named Barfeld, disappeared mysteri-
ously after having delivered series of political
lectures in London in the interest OF the tory
and unionist party. 1t is believed that he
started to fulfill an engagement to lecture in
Ireland, upon an invitation sent him to come
over for that purpose. Since that time moth
ing has been heard of him. Inquiries which
have been made led to results which appear to
indicate that the invitation was bogus, and it
now transpires that Mr.. Barfeld had received
friendly anonymous letter on July 4, which
urged MIN to pay attention to the invincible
threats of assassination which he had received,
and to abandon his proposed visit to Ireland,
or the Cronin tragedy might be repeated in
England. The letter, together with the threats
of harm, were ignored at the time, but the mat
ter has now been placed in the hands of the
police. In the chance of there having been more
in them than was supposed.

MIR. PORTER ON THE TARIFF.
He Says We Have q Population of Co.
900, 900 and Protection Has Done 1t.

An address on "a centennial Of protection"
was delivered at Lancaster, Pa, yesterday by
Hon. Robert P. Porter, superintendent Of the
census. In the course of his remarks on the
prosperity and growth which had attended the
application of the American doctrine Of pro-
lection for home industries, Mr.. Porter de-
clared that the population of the United States
was now 65,000,0O0. Mr.. Porter's arguments
we're based principally upon the remark of
Thaddeus Stevens, that if the principles of the
American system of government are not sound
all history is lie, and he declared that free
trade was advocated by English manufacturers,
who hoped by such procedure to keep down
the price of bread so that they could lessen
wages and increase profits. He called especial
attention to the fact that English fnanciers
had implicit faith in the American system, for
since the tariff party came into power under
President Harrison millions of their money
had been invested in this country.

Importing Belgian Glass Workers.

A Pittsburg dispatch says: The neglect to
furnish the recent importation of English glass
workers under contract, together with the
present strike of six thousand window-glass
workers in this district, is causing heavy
influx of Belgian glass blowers. The National
Class Budget to-day says: 1.-THE Budget is now
able to give list of seventy-seven names of
Belgian glass blowers who are known to have
come to this country since July l. We are not
prepared to say that they are imported. In
fact, we believe these Belgians came over
voluntarily; but their coming is due to the
scarcity of American blowers, and the scarcity
of American blowers is due to the narrow
policy pursued by Local Assembly 300, knights
OF Labor, in restricting American boys from
learning the trade

Refuse to Act as Policemen.

The 200 men brought to Punxsutawney on
Monday by the Rochester, Buffalo and Pitts
burg coal and iron company to act in the
capacity of policemen to protect the company's
property at the Walston and Adrian mines, all
left. They came with the idea that they were
to guard a railroad crossing against the PENN
sylvania company, and when they learned the
true situation of affairs they refused TO. be
sworn in. Four hundred negroes from West
Virginia were expected yesterday, but a. they
have no one to protect them they are not likely
to come. The English-speaking miners shy

Advised to Use Pistols.

The National association of colored Baptists
at its session in Indianapolis yesterday adopted
the resolution introduced Wednesday regard
ing race prejudice in the south.
John Williams, who had been in the hands of
the mob at Boxley, advised that the colored
men must fight when attacked If they ever ex-
pected to be people. do you know" said
he, that one negro can scare a dozen white
people. Carry pistol and use it on the slight
est pretense."
The entire day was given up to the discussion
OF the assault, and ali immediate resort to arms
was about the only suggestion offered.

A Murder Mystery in Camden.

The Camden police are investigating sus-
picious case in South Camden, which looks as
though it would result in another murder. Mrs.
Christina Brown. In old woman living on
French's court, little alley in South Camden,
was found in the attic of little tumble-down
structure suffering from wounds on the head.
lace and neck. The body was covered with
filth and yermin and the hair was Completely
matted. Coroner Stanton was called In and
gave 1t as his opinion that the woman would
die.
A man named Anthem, who lives on the first
floor, was arrested and taken to the city hall.
He told Mayor Pratt that lac knew nothing
about the case, except that the woman and her
demented daughter were quarreling last Fri
day night and that since that time he had seen
nothing of theis.
The police think that Anthem may have in
hicted the wounds himself, as he has tried for
several weeks to get rid of the woman but
failed. He viii be held to await the woman's
injuries.
