Pittsburs Bucket Shop Succumbs 10 the
Pressure of High Prices.
PTTTsBURG, April 28.-The Pittsburg
Commission company, the largest bucket
shop in the state, suspended payment
Saturday. The company's business was
larger than any three concerns in this
city. The capital stock was only sic, 900,
but the aggregate amount handled by it
was at least 100000 year. Its liabili-
ties are estimated at S150,OO0. 1t is said
that the company paid ont S350,O00 in
the last seven weeks. The bulge in
grain and pork sadly crippled the con-
Germ, and the continued advance in the
stock market rendered abortive all
efforts to recover.

SITUATION BECOMING WORSE.
Labor Disturbances in Ireland More Bite,
Than Elsewhere.

LONDON, April 2S.-The Irish railway
strike situation is becoming worse rather
than better. Labor disturbances in Ire.
land. like social disorders in that coun.
try, seem to assume more bitter as
pect than similar affairs in most other
countries, and it is not improbable that
serious trouble will occur before the
present difficulty is settled. The rail
way directors have determined to take
advantage of the legal rights possessed
by them and have begun prosecutions
against the signal men who left the
companies employ without the formal
notice required by law, and there is lit
tie doubt that the men will be made to
snlfer severely for their hastY action.

THE Democrats of this State who are
going ahead with their nominations for
Congress, just as if the gerrymandering
of the Legislature were not subject to
revision by Congress, probably think
that the abuse is so old, and has been
so often winked at by the National Gov
ernment, that it can never be corrected.
That is great mistake. Even if the
McComas bill should not be passed in its
present form, and the outrage perpetrat-
ed by the present General Assembly
should go unavenged for the present, the
time when States can be carved up as to
give the minority party the majority of
the districts is nearly past. Before the
final adjournment of the present Con-
gress legislation will be effected which
which will compel some degree of fair
ness and decency hereafter in the form
