Current Events.

1t Is undeniable that the President, In
spite of the enormous pressure brought to
bear upon him,-which Murat Halstead's
Cincinnati Gazette says is terrific" and un
equaled by anything since Jackson's time
is proceeding very deliberately in the
matter OF making appointments to office.
This deliberation Is not satisfactory to the
politicians by any means; nor are all Cf
the appointments made. Postmaster Gen
eral Wannamaker has, for example, preci.
plated huge row In Philadelphia by Of
fering the postoflice of that city to Mr..
John Field, successful merchant, setting
aside Leeds, the candidate of Quay, State
boss" and Of Mechanics, city "boss."
Leeds happens 70 have been a notorious
politician of the city, who was driven from
power on the score of general untitness for
public trust by the well.remem bered
Committee of One Hundred, one of whom
was Mr.. Field. One remarkable fact is
noted by the Cincinnati Gazette, and that
is the unusal number of Incompetent, dis
reputable and dishonest men who are be-
lug urged by politicians for office. wThe
old gang" is on hand In force with plenty
of good backing and were In high spirits
when the President intimated that he
would hold congressman responsible for
their nominees, for that inferred turning
over OF the appointments to them. The
"old rascals" came TO the front in such
amazing numbers, however, that |, is pre-.
sumed from his deliberateness that the
President has been forced TO abandon that
plan and acts on his own responsibility.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.1
SCoTTDALE, July 29.-At the meeting of
the Cokeworkers' General Committee this
afternoon subcommittee, representing every
section in the coke region, were appointed.
Mass meetings will be held throughout the
region. Appointment miner said this even
ing that Master Workman Rea, of n. T. A.
1876, would be assisted by q agents of the
Miners National Trades Assembly. A
mass meeting. 10 be held in Conneilsville on
Wednesday, has been called. Prominent
officials OF the knights of Labor and others
will be there to address the men.
Immediately after the adjournment of the
General Committee the Executive Board of
subdivision No. went into session. Com
munications were received from 20 different
works notifying the board that all the as
sistance required would be given. 1t was
also stated TO the board that the miners at
the Valley Works of the Frick Coke Com
pany would quit work with the balance of
the region on Wednesday. The question Of
responsibility was taken up and the board
decided that as sufficient notice had been
given the operators, they and not the en-
ployes would be responsible for any loss
that NAV be entailed on account of the coke
being left in the ovens.
1t is reported on the most reliable author
ity that the hoard had received a check for
several hundred dollars from national head
quarters, with instructions to draw for more
when needed. The men feel confident OF
winning their point and do not expect the
strike to last over two weeks at the farthest.

THE sUpERINTENDENrs STORY.
He Says Mrs. Martin Died From Soften
ing of the Brain.

he says nfss mnrtln Dieo from Soiten-
ing of the Brain.
This morning Coroner Mcdowell will
hold an inquest upon the body of Mrs.
Anna Martin, who died at the Allegheny
Poor Farm early yesterday morning.
On July Mrs. Martin got into dispute
with her daughter-in-law about table
cloth and was pushed down pair of stairs.
The latter woman is 6S years of age and
quite feeble. In her fall she injured her
ankle and was taken from her home, at No.
49 East Jefferson street, to the Allegheny
Poor Farm.
Her relatives accom- panied her in the car
riage to the Farm, where she was admitted
on the 18th inst. Her ankle was sprained,
and she had to be carried into the institu-
ton. There the physicians attended to her
limb, which became all right In few days.
For over year Mrs. Martin has been
suffering from brain trouble, and the physi-
clans at the Home say this caused her death.
A reporter of THE DISPATCH visited the
Farm last night and interviewed Superin-
tendent Rolshouse in regard to the matter.
Mr. Rolshouse said:
1.-The women was brought here as an in
sane patient, and was treated accordingly.
She has had softening OF the brain for over
a wear and it degenerated into paralysis.
This undoubtedly caused her death. Her
relatives claimed that she injured her ankle
by falling in tine yard. She was SO insane
that she could only mutter incoherent
sounds, and never got out of her bed while
here. l do not think that the trouble with
her limb caused her death"

FRANKLIN, July 29.-From reports cir
culated in this city it would seem that the
Standard Oil Company is branching out in
an entirely new direction, and now has a
corner on the wax candle industry of the
country. Having bought out or indnced to
quit the business all the manufacturers of
wax candles the Standard is now practically
without opposition, and it is rumored they
will at once advance the prices of candles
and other commodities
Wax manufactured from petroleum is
used in their production, and il is even init
mated thai the price of chewing gun will be
advanced. The Standard has stored away
in their works in this city from 5000 to
10000 barrels of wax which they are ready
to put on the market as soon as the prices
reach their figures.
