SALT LAKE. April lO.-A wonderful
strike is reported from Deep Greek county.
\ gold lead has been discovered, carrying
a streak Of ore assayiug 1925 ounces of
gold, or $27I .3l7 to the ton. This strike
was made by a prospector working for L.
G. Karrick and Frank Knox. The man
found the float on a previous trip and
told karrick about it. The latter out
fitted him and gave directions that a
thorough search be made for the lead.
That was about two weeks ago. This
morning news was received that n vein
had been discovered. A sample of the
rock was sent in with a description of the
find. 1t is quartz literally filled with pure
gold. An assay was made from it with
the result that has been given. A piece
of the rock, about as large as a pea. was
ground up and from this a button of gold
900 fine Of the size of a Nc. 4 shot was
secured. The vein is several feet wide.
the rich streak being from four to seven
inches in thickness. The streak has been
traced 100 feet and ore of the kind sent
in can be picked out of it at any point Sc
lected at random. Tie location of the
strike is on a line of the Deep Creek road
near the boundary, between Utah and
Nevada.

FARGO, n. Oak. April lO.-The
divorce case of Theodore Oracle versus
Theodore Oracle was taken up in the dis,
trict court here yesterday. The plaintiff
is the daughter of Richard AmsdeIl, a
brewer OF Albany, n, Y, and the
defendant was a clerk in the brewers
office, The daughter and the clerk met
and loved. The father objected to their
marrying, they ran away and were
secretly married in Schenectady. Five
days later the father learned oft. locked
up his daughter and dismissed the clerk.
The complainant alleges iniiclIty on the
part of the husband.
Testimony made it appear that there
had been a conspiracy to entrap the hus-
band iuto wrong doing. A private detec-
tive was hired and a handsome but
reckless woman was secured and he fell
into the trap. \ witness who was present
20 identity the husband admitted that he
was to be paid 500 for his testimony. He
said he had been paid SIS iu money and
had received a check for the balance from
Mr.. Amsdell. He was ordered t. produce
the check in court. The complainant
testified 10 about the same story at the
time an effort was made az Albany a year
ago to secure a divorce. The cross -examIn-
alton was SO severe that she nearly
tainted, and was excused for the day.
The marriage took place Aug. p, 1855,
and the complainant is still under age.

WASHINGTON, April lot is known
here that Secretary Blaine has prepared
an answer to the message of Premier
Rudini. The fact of the preparation of
Secretary Blaine's reply is not only we'll
understood, but it is stated, moreover.
that the secretary's letter was submitted
to the president and cabinet and found to
be satisfactory. In view OF these circum-
stances, it is asserted with considerable
confidence that the letter of Secretary
Blaine has already been sent to the Mar
quis Rudlni. though whether it was com
municated by mail or telegraph is not
known. If the former method were
adopted, the Italian premier, it Is believed,
was apprised of the TACT. 1t is sug
gested also as very probable that
intImations have been conveyed OF the ad-
visibility of conducting the diplomatic
negotiations between the two countries
with less publicity. For these reasons it
is thought TO be almost impossible that
today's rumor in Rome can be correct.
No information could be secured in off
cial circles here tonight relative to the re-
port from Rome that Italy would close all
diplomatic intercourse with the United
States unless a reply was received to
morrow to the last message of Premier
Rudini on the New Urleans-Italian in
cident. The Rome dispatch was shown
to both the presidenta and Secretary Blaine
tonight and each returned word he had
nothing to say on the subject. There was
a general disposition to dlscredit the report
in unofficial circles.

win Fight to the Bitter End.

S~CoTTDALE, Pa, April lot is now
certain that the coke strike will be fought
to the bitter end. This was the unani-
nous decision of today's strikers conven-
ton. Secretary Parker, in his report, re-
viewed the situation at length, criticising
the operators severely for their action IN
attempting to destroy the organization by
posting up a sliding scale. 10 the after
noon the convention was addressed by
several prominent leaders who were pres
eut. National President Rae touched on
the eight hour day and said all other
miners in the United States would be with
the coke region strikers on the LIST OF May
in this movement and then it would be re-
corded as a national fight, instead of a
local one. He assured them of all posi-
bic financial support. Resolutions we're
adopted that the delegates stand firm IN
til a satisfactory settlement be made. The
convention then adjourned until tOmor-
row.
The Frick company report sccessiOns to
their working force all along the line, bnt
the Norwood force has diminished.
Labor bodies are holding AZ important
conference at Sc0ttdale house tonight and
mass meetings are being held elsewhere.
The strikers are iubilant tonight over the
report that Gov. Pattison has ordered the
18th regiment home tomorrow. The tents
will remain but a few days. Capt, Loar
and deputies have been released in bonds
of $4,000 each.

NEW YORK. April lO.-Lawronce Bar

largest theatrical undertakings that this
countrY has ever seen. This was a dram
attic festival 70 be held in New York in
1892, an for which twenty weeks had
already been booked at the Broadway
theater. Ii was Mr.. Barrett's intention
in this festival to present S~hakspearisn
aud other classic dramas on a scale of I'M
surpassed magnifcence. He had already
secured a contract from Mary Anderson,
and had not the negotiations been broken
off by the sudden death of the tragedian,
1t is probable that Mr.. Irving and Miss

10 the proposed festival.

Fifty Years Old.

New YORK, April l0.-This was the
fftieth anniversary of the birth of the
New York Tribune, and the event was
fttingly celebrated tonight by a jubilee at
the Metropolitan opera house. The edi-
fee was well filed, and a programme
worthy of the occasion rendered. Ad-
dresses were made by Maj. Mckinley,
Chauncey NJ. Depew, Charles A. DATA,
Roswell G. Horr. George William Curtis,
and an original poem was read by Ed
mund Clarence otedman, and an Orches-
ira of fifty pieces, under the direction of
Walter Damrosch, rendered SIX selections
by American composers. Among the
many prominent men present were Vice
President Morton, Senators Morrill,, His
cock, Hawley. aud Plumb. and Secretary
of the Navy Tracy. Letters were read
from President Harrison, who said: The
paper has been a potent influence in more
than one important crisis in our public
history" from Secretary Blaine, who
deeply regretted his inability to be pres
ent, and expressed the esteem in which
he had always held the great newspaper
in whose honor the exercises were held;

CHICAGO, April lO.-Miss Phoebe
Couzins, secretary Of the board of lady
managers, still holds the fort at the
Worlds Fair headquarters, determined
to assert her rights as secretary of the ca
ecutive committee, to which place said
committee elected Miss Cook the other
day. Miss Couzins saws she has received
kilograms from many lady commi. s%ioners,
taking sides with her. A local paper
says differences have for a long time ex
listed between the president, Mrs. Palmer.
and Secretary Couzins. The latter, it is
said, has upon several occasions refused
to sign communications unless the pro-
noun we was used. referring to herself
and the president Mrs. Palmer, it is
reported. has stated to friends, talking of
Miss COuzins. II cannot quarrel with
her, and can only close the door in her
face This trouble is viewed seriously
bv certain Worlds Fair officials. Should
Miss Couzins make a legal fight, as has
been threatened, it will seriously Iniure
the influence for good of the board; or
should the courts deci lc in her favor,
thus nulliiying the executive committee S
acts, it would practically result in dis
banding the board, and cause no end OF
trouble.

WASHINGTON, April lO.-Senator Pet
fer, in an address to a local federation of
labor last night, intimated that the Farm
ers' Alliance would support a stringent
restriction of foreign emigration, but the
legislation will be based on the idea that
foreign labor is imported into the United
States solely for the benefit of capital.
Said the successor of ingalls,:
The whole trouble comes from the
greed of ayarice. The money power is
hurting US. In lSs9 was passed the first
anti-alien contract law. 1t was not passed
until our own working people began to
feel the pressure and then to rebel. The
first thing we have to do is to know what
is wrong. Among the things that are
wrong is that 81, coo men would have to
labor Sl3 days TO make as much as the
income of one man at 7 per cent. There
is a great educational work to he done
among the people. How few are they
who have an adequate idea of the state OF
affairs In my younger days there was
nothing known as a m~ortgaged farm in
Pennsylvania, aud now we are told there
are 10000 600 mortgages on American
homesl We must all be missionaries in
this work of education. and we must not
divide our forces "

LONDON. April lO.-The government
having succeeded in rushing the Irish
land bill through Its first stages when the
Irish party were fighting on the question
of leadership, shows a determination to
follow a similar policy with the bill in
committee. Balfour's action in using the
weapon of closure to abridge the debate
on the first clause is as ~tvranical an appli
cation as the present government have
given. Gladstone held a conference to-
day with several McCarthyites on a line
OF opposition and the result OF the meet
ing promises to restore concerted action
among the opposition instead of every
man fighting on his individual RESPONSE
blity. Summed up the liberal amend
ments, upon which the struggle will pro-
coed Tor several weeks to come, include
opposition To the use OF local
funds as guarantees for l,ans and
objections to the tenants insurance
fund, to the proposal to levy the amount
of any deficiency on county rates and to
the exclusion OF grazing farms from the
operation of the measure. None of these
amendments are acceptable to the govern
ment and after much talk each will be
defeated in turn.
A close scrutiny of the personnel of.the
labor commission confirms tho belief that
the government do not intend to permit
hazardous questions as to the basis OF the
relations of labor and capital to be con-
sidered. Roughly classified, capital has
fourteen representatives and labor
thirteen. The radicals and labor members
OF the commons complain that the list
contains only six genuine labor representa-
tives against eleven large employers,
while the sympathies of the other mem
bers are on the side of capital.
Mr.. Shaw is unwilling to re enter par
lament, even with the chance of resum-
ing the leadership of the anti-P arnelltes.
The struggle is too much emblttered.
The canard involving Miss O'Shea and
Parnell has ceased to be heard. Parnell
comes to the commons direct from BrIgh
ton. Capt. O'Shea continues to reside
at the west end of Brighton. Mrs. O'Shoa
Is still at the West End, which is now
known as the Fire Escape Terrace. "
She drives out with Parnell.
Gladstone, having been privately asked
for a statement IN reply TO Parnelrs
charge that Gladstone gave an interview
to American dYnamiters at Hawarden,
SAYS his denial alone ought to suffice.
In tie commons, today, Oh the Irish
land bill. Labouchere moved to omit the
word guaranteed" from the clause pro-
posing that advances be made by the issue
of guaranteed land stock equal in a nom
lnal amount to the sum advanced. He
denounced the scope and principle of the
bill. A long debate followed, particl-
pated in by Balfour, Gladstone, Timothy
Healy aud others. Balfour moSed a
closure. which was carried, ana Labouch.
ere's motion was rejected.
