PROSECUTION RECOMMENDED.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 20.-The civil service
commission today laid before the presi-
dent, with the recommendation, it is un-
derstood, that the offenders be prosecuted,
its report on the Old Dominion Republican
league, of Virginia, for violation of the
civil service law in soliciting contributions
for political purposes among the clerks of
the government departments. The clrcu-
lar which was sent out by the Old Do
minion Republican league was signed by
e A. Newton, as president. and by Brooke
Smith, as secretary. Among the officers of
the league. whose names were printed on
the circular, We're those of J. J. Wiser,
an employe of the government printing
office; w. G. Elan, ii chief of division in
the general land Office, and Mr.. Goodwin.
All the evidence collected by the civil SER
vice commission, which is very volumin-
Gus, also accompanied the letter of recon-
mendatIon to the president. The
commissioners, it is said, are confident of
having made out a good case against the
accused, and it now rests with the presl-
dent to direct. in his judgment, the prose-
cution by The attorney general, to whom
the recommendation and evidence, in the
natural order of business will 20. This is
the first recommendation for prosecution
of this character made by the commission.
The civil service commission also handed
the president its annual report for the cur
rent fiscal year.

SMALL PARTIES CUT OUT.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Nov. 20.-Unless the
law providing for the holding of elections
in this state is changed before next cleo
ton the Prohibition party will be unable
to place ticket in the field at that time.
The law as passed By the last legislature
and what supplements the Australian sys-
tenn provides that no political party that
did not at the last election poll 3 per cent
of the entire vote cast can put a
ticket IN the field: at the last election about
500, 600 votes were cast OF which the pro-
hibtionists cast only $1,000
1t is doubtful whether the Union Labor
party wilt be able 10 place the pames of
candidates for election on tickets at the
new election under this law for at the last
election that party poiled in most in
stances but one OF 200 votes over 8 per cent.

THE BALD KNOB DELIVERY.
]. G. Rucker on Trial for Aiding in the
Escape of Mathews.

OZARK, Mo. Nov. 19-The trial of J. G..
Rucker for the Jail delivery of the Bald
knobbers on the 18th of December last was
called yesterday and jury ordered to ap-
pear before Judge Hubbard at 10 O'Clock
this morning. The Jail delivery has been a
mystery to many people as to just how the
men escaped. J. G. Rucker was in the Ozark
Jail at the time and from evidence secured
the grand jury found an indictment
against him. At o'clock the jurors were
impanelled ana sworn.
The first witness for the state was w. NJ.
Wade. circuit clerk, who read the mandates
from the supreme court of Christian coun-
ty, showing that Wiley Mathews and John
Mathews had been by said court con-
demned to hang and were placed in the
Ozark Jail to await their execution.
u. A. johnson, sheriff of Christian coun-
ty, was the next witness. He stated that
on the light of the 2Sth of December, 1888,
tie Jail at Ozark was opened and the pris-
oners escaped. except David and Will
Walker and j. G. Rucker, who called TO
the sheriff about l O'clock and told him
the prisoners had escaped.
William Bedford, who was in Jail at the
time, was the next witness examined. He
said j. c. Rucker made a set of keys d
few days before the knobbers escaped, and
that he went with Wiley Mathews about
sixteen miles south of Ozark and then left
him and returned and gave himself up to
the sheriff and told him the story of the
Jail delivery.
After long speeches by G. \. Watson in
behalf of the state. and T. NJ Payne for
the defendant, instructions were given by
the court and the jury retired. They are
still out.

AN IMMENSE COAL VEIN.
The Accidental Discovery Of the Biggest
Bed Ever Known.

PoTTsvILLE, Pa, Nov 20.-The most
important event ever occurring in the coal
regions of Pennsylvania is the accidental
discovery or find just made in the ex-
tensive colliery of Lawrence & Brown, at
Mahanoy Plane. The men were running
a drift about $40 yards down when they
vein of pure coal containing
several million tons. The find
will go on record as one of the greatest ac-
cidental discoveries of coal vein which
mas ever occurred in the history of anthra-
cite Developments. The vein is over 200
feet thick and correspondingly wide Its
extent and complete dimensions will be
at this time it will yield several million
tons OF pure coal.
The discovery was made at the bottom
of an old colliery not worked. The men
were simply making drift through to
another coliiery when the rich vein was
struck. The fact that this great deposit of
coal was exposed by mere accident has
caused great jubilation between employer
and employee. In commencing the tunnel
"A small vein was TO be cut through and af-
ter this was accomplished conglomeratO
rock was expected to offer greater resist
ance to the work and preparations were
made to redouble the work and give the
greatest expedition TO the stupen-
dous undertaking The small
vein'' that showed itself at
the threshold of this new subterranean
passage seemed to be growing larger as
the work proceeded until. when the tunnel
had penetrated 10 feet from the opening,
a vein 200 feet thick revealed itself to the
eyes of all concerned. Further
explorations established the fact that
beyond peradventure the mammoth
vein basin had at last been
found, aud the little vein"
was nothing less than the mammoth.
The future Of this staple enterprise will
give beneficent returns on a more magnifi-
cent scale and establish long reign of
to all dependent on the institu-
ton. The colliery at present emp oys 800
hands, and last month shipped IA, $50 tons
of coal. About $4,000 is paid out semi
With the new vein pouring
forth it's contributions to the general
wealth of the place, shipments will soon
reach 10000 tons per month. There is
great rejoicing among the owners.

sMokEIESs POWDER.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 20-Captain Led
yard Ellsworth, of Hartford, Conn.,, who
claims to be the inventor of the smokeless
powder which has caused such sensation
in German army circles, is in the city
armed with letter to Secretary Proctor
asking that the powder be tested with a
view TO its purchase by the United States
government. In the letter he states that
at Hanover, during the sham battle, 10000
rounds were used by the German troops
separate trials be made by the department.,
one with small arms, the second with field
artillery and the third with heavy guns.
Captain Ellsworth has papers in his pos
session making over the formula for the
the manufacture of the powder to Carl
Won Anderlicht. of London, representing
the German government. and according to
the documents Won Anderlichr obtains
for his government from the inventor the
exclusive rights for all countries with the
exception Of the United States. Mexico
Won Anderlicht pays $780, and is
to pay $4,000 per year in semi-an-
nual payments for ninety-nine years.
The contract further provides that if be-
fore November /. 1889, the purchasers
should inform captain Ellsworth by per-
sonal service letter, cable or otherwise of
their desire, they shall have the option of
purchasing the remaining rights, that is.
for the United States, Mexico and Central
America for like sum, i. e., 500, 900 down
and $1,000 per year for ninety-nine years.
AT present the matter seems TO be cOmpli-
Gated. The German contracting parties
claim to have sent a letter on October l,
closing the option out. This Captain Els
worth says he has not received.
