eek The weather, however, being quite favor
ohIa there was steady business in progress,
aItbough there was not much character to the
.rad,ng. the only feature worthy Of
notice being the steady demand.
The movement wasIbased principally on travel
ers' orders by mail and wire, with very few spot
tuvers. The takings were as a rule in small
lots and interior operators are beginning to ex-
bihit more caution in their dealings as the
snring advances, as it is just the period for slow
collections and a general need of money in
the country. The money market remains
mite easy, with good demand for

sbipping movement, but the local demand is

far this week was in fair proportions In dry
Goods the movement is quite moderate and in

other branches the business was of very
moderate character, with nothing OF importance

business will show the tone and the latest clos
ing quotations of the different markets to-
day:
NAVAL SroREs.-The market for spirits tur-
peptine was rather dull during the week. TIE
receipts increasing, especially in new crop, has
caused prices to slough off, and the market
closed with nothing doing, and quotations
were posted, although offerings were held at

for the week were only about

mand, proportionately small receipts and the

dull and if anything shade easier. The total

CoTToN.-Busness in the spot market was
excellent, considering the smallness of the
offering stock, which is probably less than ever
before at this time. This has had the effect of
holding values very steadily, as there
was no other element to warrant
any strength. The coming weeks cearances
for the Baltic will about finish up the buying
the part of exporters for foreign account, and
the market will relapse into dullness The total
sales for the week foot up $40 bales. The fol-

vey of Pennsylvania, gave personal at
tention to the location, mining methods
and production of the anthracite coal
mines of this state. This work has lately
earned him the honorary degree of Doc
tor of Philosophy in the University of
Pennsylvania. In 1885, DIR. Ashburner
was called upon by the U. S. Geological
Survey to make report on the coal pro-
duction of the entire United States.
This herculean task was begun and fin
ished by him in six weeks. Since that
time this work has been under his
charge. He has prepared the reports on
coal for the volumes Mineral Resources
of the United States" for 1885, 1886,
1887, and is now completing that for
1888. Mr.. Jones began his work on coal
statistics in 1876 as statistician for the
railroad companies engaged in the trans
portation of anthracite. Mr.. Jones has
published every year since that time re-
ports on anthracite shipments, which
have made him the official authority
in regard thereto. 1t is expected that
the report furnished by those two will
prove very complete and authoritative.

Killed One Hundred and Six Snakes.

The White Haven Journal is response
BILE for this snake story: Mount Yeager,
about mile west of White Haven, is
noted deer hunting resort. At its sum-
init is a large rock covering deep cavern,
within which rattlesnakes in untold num-
bers dwell and hibernate. By placing
the ear to the rock the rattle and noise
of the reptiles can be heard underneath
at all seasons of the year. On warm,
pleasant days hundreds of them have
been seen upon and around the rock
summing themselves and timid hunters
and berry pickers would on such occa-
sions hastily depart, fearful of molesting
the snakes lest their disturbance would
bring upon themselves disastrous, if not
calamitous, consequences. Not so, how
ever, with Wesley Searfoss of Rita. He
with his brother were after swarm of
bees last week, and going in the direc-
ton of Mount Yeager suddenly found
themselves very near the rock, and it
was completely covered with the writh-
ing, wriggling serpents. But they pos
sessed that stern stuff from which heroes
are made, and though the horrifying
spectacle would have made ordinary
mortals quail and tremble, it imbued
them with courage and determination,
and they resolutely decided to get their
bees if they had to kill every snake in
the country. They hurriedly selected
good, stiff limbs of trees for cudgels, and
began the determination of the rattlers.
The northern pythons stubbornly resist
ed this onslaught, and for a time the bat
tie waxed hot and fierce between the
brave young fellows and the enraged,
seething, kissing mass of venomous rep
tiles. But the cool-headed, strong
armed, agile young men won the victory
after severe struggle, and the result of
the combat was one hundred and six
dead snakes, of various sizes, but all of
the rattler family. They filed their
pockets with rattles, and having gath
cred more than quart of them as tro-
phies of their contest returned to their
home to tell of their daring exploits and
their marvellous conquest

Between 8 and 10 O'Clock on Sunday
evening, as Andrew Elliott of South
Heberton and James Oliver of Highland
were passing the store of Nicholas Cab
bage in the Points, they were pushed
rather rudely by one of the Italians who
were standing around that vicinity.
They demanded an explanation for such
conduct and as result a quarrel ensued,
during which a hatchet belonging to
Cabbage was used in manner creditable
to Sioux Indian. While the fight was
in progress Andrew Elliott was cut
severely on the back and his clothes torn
into shreds. James Oliver also received
a few gashes from the hatchet on the
right arm. Warrants were issued early
Monday morning and placed in the
hands of Constable Sault, who arrested
Nicholas Cabbage and Matthew Geraldo
while they were making their way to
Hazleton. The prisoners were taken
before Squire Buckley and bound over
until Wednesday evening for a further
hearing. On Wednesday morning an
other warrant was issued for the arrest
of Frank Davie, another of the Italians
who participated in the fracas, and he
was also bound over. Last evening the
parties were brought up for final hear
ing before the Justice. There being no
evidence produced to connect Geraldo
with the affair, other than an onlooker
he was discharged. Cabbage was held
in the sum of six hundred and Dave in
three hundred dollars for their appear
ance at court. Bail was entered and
both prisoners released. On Monday
afternoon Cabbage swore out warrants
for the arrest of Elliott and Oliver,
charging them with threats and they
were also placed under bonds to apper
at the next term of court.

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENTS.
FREELANp, Sept. 8, 1885


EDITOR TRIBUNE.-It is somewhat
public opinion in relation to the tariff as
protecting medium clearly indicated
by the free trade tone of the public
press. The N. Y. Press-that faithful
Watchdog on the ramparts of protection
has made the admission that trusts
cannot be broken by direct legislation
and proposes to destroy them by abolish
ing the tariff on trust products. The
only conclusion to be derived from this
admission might be summed up thus
If free trade in trust products will have
a tendency to abolish trusts, free trade
in all products will accomplish the same
result far more effectively. 1t might be
in order to inquire of the thousands of
deluded voters, who have pinn'd their
faith to the fallacy of protection, where
is the benefit to be derived from con-
tinuance of this rotten system?
The mine workers are protected it is
true-and from what? Protected from
the semi-monthly pay law, protected by
exorbitant prices in favored home mar
kets, protected by an unjust system of
taxation that taxes labor and industry,
placing bounty on Incidence and spec
ulation. Labor is protected from the
right to exert itself and produce the
various forms of wealth SO essentially
necessary to promote human comfort
and happiness. Tariff (high or low af-
fords no protection to labor-on the con-
trary it is the root of all trusts and COM
bines that speculate in the necessaries of
life, that levy tribute ON the many in
order to give extra profits to the few.
In the race of life it is a Survival of
tbn fAc,ft TI11 1,1 1.
to hoe his row and compete with his
brother worker must succumb to the in
evitable and take back seat. So it
should be with 'infant industries" The
industry that cannot tide the wave of
competition is a pauper industry and
deserves to be swamped. The tariff is
the arch-robber that is laying the foun-
dation for an American nobility, the
dim outlines of which are clearly visible
on our social horizon in the opposite ex-
tremes of society, of which the million
aire and tramp are typical representa-
tives.
When producers begin to realize the
great injustice wrought by the tariff,
then the days of the custom houses will
be really numbered. Trade might be
termed the pioneer of civilization, and
any restrictions placed on the exchange
of products is a menace to liberty and
crime against society and civilization.
Mr.. Editor, | embrace this opportunity
of congratulating you on your manly atti-
tude in showing up this octupus of mon
opoly in its true colors. Yours truly,
