The Labor conference Meets.

BERLIN. March l5.-The international
labor conference, which meets at the in =
vitation of Emperor William, was
formally opened to-day in the large hall
of Prince BiSmarck's palace, IN which
the conference of 1873 was held. The
opening partOok more of the nature of
social than of an Off cial gathering,
though many preliminary matters were
disposed of. Baron Won Berlepsch,
PruSsIan minister of commerce, well
coined the delegates to Germany in the
name of the emperor and expressed the
hope that their deliberations would be
fruitful in beneficial results. He in
vited the conference TO constitute
committees for the consideration OF
the various questions which are to
be discussed. At the conclusion OF the
address Of welcome Baron Won Berlepsch
was elected president OF the conference
and Herr Magdeburg, under secretary of
commerce, ce-presideut. The usual
rules Tor the conduct of business observed
by diplomatic conferences were adopted.
AS a consequence, deliberations were
carried OIL behind closed doors, and strict
secrecy has been enjoined upon the dele
proceedings. The conference will Teas-
semble Monday morning. Before ad-
jOurnment to-day Baron Won BeTlepsCh

HORRIBLE AWAKENING.
The Several Inma'es of q Residences ara
Awakf ned by tie Crashing Of the Strue-
tUrs Caused by a landslide.

TROY, n. Y, March 15.-There were
sixteen persons IN the Garfield house,
the frat building destroyed by the terri
bic landslide to-day. In the Lawrence
house seven persons were sleeping. THAI
one of the inmates of the house escaped
is almost remarkable. But for the solid
foundation of the new house on the west
side of the avenue the sliding mass would
have continued to Hill street, and per-
haps farther. There was no warning.
The inmates of the dwellings IN the path
Of the destroying mass were quietly
sleeping. Their sensations on awaken
ing as the building gave way, and they
were carried down beneath the ruins,
were terrible IN the extreme. Just how
they escaped death is a mystery to them
The crash came and they went down
under the falling bricks aud lumber.
After being imprisoned in the suffocat-
ing mass for what seemed to them an
age, they succeeded in getting out into
the air. Their cries fer help alarmed the
neighbors. II was dark, and they looked
In vain for the house that had stood on
the north side OF the avenue when they
retired for the night. The house was
gone. Where it had stood was a noun
tain of clay, beneath which aud from an
opening near the front OF the house on
the opposite side OF the street came pitt
full cries for help. Those who had
escaped from the ruins shouted to others
to keep up courage and relief would soon
come.
Little Annie Burns, eleven years old,
granddaughter OF Patrick Cantipld. Sr. Il,
was taken out dead. John A. Hearns
extricated himself and succeeded In get
ting out his wife and b Iby. The body
OF Mrs. Noouan was taken out about
o clock, and the body Of her daughter,
Mrs. Hogin, was found an hour or so
later.
The widest rumors were current as TO
the number OF persons killed, but at 8
o'clock this morning, after Interviewing
the survivors and neighbors, II was as
certained that all who had been In the
Garfield house had been accounted for.
Three were dead, and the survivors In
cluded several persons more or less IN
jured.
The Lawrence houses was occupied by
John Lawrence, wife and his three
brothers, Thu mas, Charles and George
Lawrence, and two children. This house
was completely wrecked and nearly
buried by the mass OF clay and wreck OF
the Garfield house. None OF the seven
inmates of this house were killed, and
only one, Thomas Lawrence, injured.
He sustained severe cut on the head
from q brick that fell on him and aWoke
him from his slumbers.

A Little Premature.

ARKANSAS CITY, KAN, March ID
The boomers were stampeded into the
Cherokee Strip much the same as the
cattle were stampeded out of it. They
miscOnstrued the passage of the Okla

Immediate opening of the country TO set

alarmed lest it would not be the first on
the ground to select the choicest town
sites ana CLAIMS, rushed ell NELL over
the border regardless of consequences.
Some fear is expressed by cooler heads
to-day that this premature and ill-ad-
viSed movement may be entirely useless,
and that the government may deprive
them of their advantage and drive the
settlers out to await the formal opening
OF the country TO give all

has been accom- plshed, that President
Harrison will allow them to remain and
permit others to take up lands whenever
they arrive. Hopeful in this belief, they
have already begun to improve their

LONDON, March 15.-The fact that the
strike of the miners occurred concur
rently with q falling market is as disad-
vantageous TO the strikers as it Is FORUM
ate for the mine owners, most of whom
are glad of an opportunity to limit the
output which the temporary cessation Of
work will afford them. In this state OF
things only the universally of the strike
and the unanimity of purpose among the
men can save the miners from
defeat, and the efforts OF the leaders
will be devoted TO prOlOnging the struggle
Levoud the limit of the masters endu-
rance Nevertheless, the situation is
serious. The gravity OF the crisis is re-
allied fully by the conductors of other
great industries, and their alarm is well
founded. The factories at St. Helens
have given notice to their employees that
for the present the mills will he run
on short time, and there is
reason to fear that the great
industries of Birmingham will shut down
until the prospects become brighter. The
outlook for London is better than that
confronting most provincial cities and
towns and as yet the present or prOsDec-
tive effect of the strike upon the metTnp-
oils seems to be slight. The coal dealers
of London, fOreseeing the danger, havo
ordered largely from abroad and their
supply Is merely question OF securing
transportation and dischar@ing facilities.
The men throughout the country are adj
mirubly organized and abuudautly sup
piled with funds and their leaders are
able ana determined.

sECESsIONISTs.

The secession of Mr.. James Caldwell,
Unionist member of parliament for the
St. Rollox division Of Glasgow, from
the ranks of the government party, Is a
serious blow TO the ministry. Mr.. Cald-
well states that it Is not his intention to
JOIN the Gladstonans, but merely to
place himself in q position to act indie
pendently upon auy OF the vital questions
pending.
In spite of the fact that the South
Paddington Tories have repudiated Lord
Randolph Churchill in consequence of his
attack upon the government and the re-
peated demands made by unauthorized
persons and newspapers for his resigna-
ton, it is certain that even the most i'll
dignant among the members OF the min
iStry will hesitate to advocate his taking
that step at present. On the contrary
the Conservatives are seeking to avoid an
issue in that or any other constituency,
fearing the result of an election so soon
after the report Of the Paruell commits

is 10 permit some important legislation
TO intervene between the acceptance OF

endorsement of the course taken by the
Times aud an appeal to the people.

Allow me brief space for a note TO

villifier and his associates have given
currency to the rumor that l have
become unfit for public office on ac-
count of habitual drunkenness. In
consequence of this cruel and base
falsehood my family have been much
annoyed by the sympathies and con-
dolence of misinformed people. To
those who know me well defence
is needless; to less intimate &C.
quaintances let me say that / have
not so suddenly degenerated from
my usual quiet and studious habits
to become common drunk, as l am
accused of being, nor is it likely to
happen. My family and intimate
