ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, March 17.-Rev.
George Brown, colored preacher Of
more then ordinary intelligence, is or
ganizing colony of his race in st. Louis
to emigrate to Africa. In response to a
question to-day he said he was making
splendid progress with mis- scheme, but
had not been making a noise about it.
Already he has, he said, enlisted all told
as many as 400 or 500 people. He had
written to President Harrison to see
about transportation, and says that he
received reply saying the government
had not appropriated any money for that
purpose, but that he could likely secure
aid from the American association of
Washington, which has done considerable
in the line OF sending freedmen back to
Africa

WASHINGTON. March lit is pro-
posed that eight consecutive hours of
labor shall constitute a days work for
clerks and employees in all first and sec
oud-class postofices, for which they shall
receive not less than the classified salary
for days work. If any clerk or en-
ploye is employed n greater number of
hours per day than eight, he shall be
paid extra ID proportion to his salary;
also bill granting leave of absence
with pay to such clerks and employees for
period of not less than fifteen days in
any one fiscal year. II is also proposed to
ask congress to make changes in compen-
sarion paid to clerks. Among these
changes the following are proposed:
That all clerks shall receive an increase
of 500 per annum, until an annual sala-
~ of $1,000 is obtained; that 90 per cent.
of the clerks shall receive an annual
salary of $1,000; that 10 per cent. of the
clerks shall receive an annual salary OF
S14G0. The above salary changes are pro-
posed as amendments to a bill introduced
in the house during the last congress.

HE HAS A DOUBLE.
Burehill, the Alleged Murderer of Benwell,
Seen at Various Places the Same
Day Witnesses are Positive.

WOODSTOCK, ONT. March 1.-THE
excitement over the murder of Benwell
and arrest of BurchiIl is to a large ex-
tent dying out. There are many here
who believe Burchill to be innocent, and
base their belief on the fact that some
mistakes have been made as regards
his identl fication. In the first place
Conductor Poole and train hands are
positive that Burchill aud Benwell got
off the train on the morning Of February
Is, while Station Agent Dunn and his
assistant, Jones, are equally positive that
neither OF them got off and the case re-
ferred to in PooIe's evidence was not put
off there. Jones identified the prisoner
as the man who took the train for Ham
ilton during the afternoon, and this
strengthens the belief that Jones is COR
rect when he states Burchill did not ap-
pear there during the morning.
Another thing is that on the
morning of Wednesday, February IS,
Poole is positive Burchill was with him ct
Niagara Fails. but Fred Millman. who
knows BuTchill, is also positive that upon
the same day he saw BurchilI here. Mrs.
Edward Nesbitt is also positive she saw
Burchill here on the same day. The
only conclusion to be arrived at is that
Burchlll has ''double, - and that the
prisoner will probably have no difficulty
in proving an alibi. Burchill's friends
here received news that Nichols MurchY,
queen g counsel of Toronto, had been re-
tanned by the prisoner in England TO de-
fend him. Burchili, however, had not
heard of it.

Berlin Comes to the Front With Dirty

Resume of the Strike.

SreciaI TO the Gazette.
LONDON, March II. - Concessions
granted to their employees by the smaller
mine owners have had the effect to great
ly weaken the position OF those remain
ing out by reducing the aggregate num-
Der Of strikers and consequently detrsct-
ing from the enormous Importance Of the
movement. Nevertheless estimates made
by employers themselves, show that up
wards of $50, 200 men constitute the
fighting force confronting them,
and the fact that this form
liable body Is well supplied with
funds and determined and able leaders is
also taken into consideration as evidence
that the struggle must end in q COM
promise or victory for the men after
bitter fight and perhaps bloodshed.
That this view Is taken by the masters is
abundantly shown by their willingness to
send committee to meet committee OF
the men on Thursday, despite their re-
fusal to agree to compromise at meet
ing of owners to-day. The employment
of non-union GOLFERS in Lancashire is
causing trouble that may spread
to other localities. The miners
are firm and the masters are equally
so. AS yet there has teen no
violence to speak of, but the bitter feel
ing Is increasing and the police 'authori-
ties fearing disorder have reinforced the
cOnstabulary wherever quarrels have
arisen that promise to develop into active
hostilities.
FRENCH MINISTRY.
The general opinion at the continental
capitals is that the new French ministry
is strong one, and its strength is re-
garded as its only Objectionable feature,
menacing as it does its harmony and
unanimity OF policy. Including Premier
De Freycinet himself the cabinet COM
priSes four eX-premiers and the predio-
ton is freely made that they will not be
conteuted to pull together for any con-
siderable length of time. It would be
strange if they should, for at different
times in capacity of president of the coun-
ell each has represented principles and
advocated measures to which the others
were opposed.
BERLIN SCANDAL.
a tremendous sensation has been Gre
ated in Berlin by the sentence of a
professional midwife to seven years
Imprisonment and the imposition of
sentences of various degrees of
severity upon several ladies of
high families who were proved to have
employed her to aid them in thwartlng
nature by her practices. When the
woman was arrested some time ago strong
efforts were made in behalf of her pa
tIents to prevent her case from coming to
trial, but they were unavailing, chiefly
because Of the indignant protests Of agi-
tators against discrimination in the adj
ministration of the laws in favor of the
rich.

of Vienna, has been discovered to be
defaulter to the amount Of $50 ZOO. |
The police are after him, but thus far he
has eluded arrest and it is thought he |

LITTLE Rock, ARK, Aug. 26.-Word
was received from Harrison, Ark. this
morning of the discovery of what Is be-
lieved to be paying silver mine in
Marion county, under very peculiar cir
cumstances. Five years ago John Mo-
Adams, citizen of the county, was con-
yicted of counterfeiting and sentenced to
FIVE years imprisonment II was shown
at the time IL was made of silver, and
was worth more than the genuine dollar.
McAdams, IL is claimed dug the mate
rial with which he manufactured the
money, from q vein of silver in the
mountains near his home. He was dis
charged q few weeks ago, having served
his term, and returned home and he has
given samples of silver TO number of
persons, and the assay showed large
per cent. of bullion. Much excitement
ia the neighborhood is caused by the dis
covery.

NO BETTER THAN OLD H0WDY.
One Farmer Snapped for Another-Tha Part
the Alliance IS Playing in Politics

Ons Farmer Snapped for Another-Ths Part
the Alliance is Playing In Politics
NAcoGDocHEs. TEX, Aug. Is, 1881.
Editor Gazette.
The nomination of John b. Long to
succeed Old Howdy falls like wet
blanket on this town. It Is whispered In
the corner, of course not publicly, that
the price of gas will go up rapidly il the
farmers get entire control of the govern
ment, as they are striving to do. 1t will
neither be blown out nor turned off, the
intricaoies of the jets being so great the
average congressman will not dare TO ap-
prosch 1t for mortal terror, and of course
it will all burn out, and price VIII rise
accordingly. Mr.. Long has the credit OF
being good citizen and above the aver
age farmer, but no better than Old
Howdy, and the people have played
sheol by nominating him. For ways
that are dark and tricks that are vain
the Farmers Alliance takes the cake.
All political measures are first settled in
the dark lodge room, and they then capt
ure the conventions under the name OF
the sub-treasury scheme last week at
tonic convention, which sat right
square down on il ana
mashed the poor thing. There
is no part OF the ''party policy that
they will support, except it be to the
"direct" interest of the farmer and no
one else. 1t is understood that no inter-
est except the farmers interest is to be
considered. Two years hence we will
have to solve the Alliance problem.
Four illion farmers votes are expected
TO control 8 200, 900 other votes. 1t re-
mains to be seen who will win. You will
see that two years from now that all sec
lions who are opposed to the sub-treas-
ury, and all wild foolish plans of the Al
lance will have to get together. Repub-
licans, Democrats, Greenbackers, Pro-
hibs and all others Will have to destroy
party lines and vote together, or this
and many other hellish measures will be
heaped upon US, for they are trying and
succeeding to capture the Republican
party in the North and the Democratic
party in the South, and In their re5peot-
i've locations are capturing pet measures
under popular political names, and the
party names are having to bear the
odium of it, 1t was the Farmers AL
lance that put the commission plank 10
the platform at San Antonio, and dema-
gogues danced to the music. You will
find, however, that anti-commisSiOn
men will vote their sentiments just the
same, as it had no business in being faith
cred by the Democratic party, but put
on the Alliance where 1t belongs. note
that most men who are bowling about
railroads are men who have no freight to
haul, and who rarely ever travel. Most
men who have to do business with rail-
roads are appreciative of their benefits,
and will vote accordingly.

District Attorney Baldwin is not in at
tendance as his attention is perhaps
needed at the judicial onventIon now in

returned to Pittsburg to-day. The uni
versal wish of the people here Is to take
the brides OFF and let them run till No
vember. Cass county is not afraid to
risk the chances Of Mr.. O'Neal to the
honest Democracy of this judicial dis
trict. We want no dark horse, and IL
Mr.. O'Neal nor Mr.. Baldwin can neither
receive the nomination owing to tie let
the will of the people prevail and have q
free, open, honorable canvass till No
