RUSH CITY, Mimi. April 10.-Charles
G. Anderson, of the drug firm of Runs
kog & Anderson, of this place, COM
mitted suicide here this morning by tax
ing prussic acid. The deceased was seen
this morning at 7o'clock, but later went
to his room and at 9 o'clock was found
on the bed dead. with the tell-tale bottle
at his side. He has been the village re-
corder and his term was just expiring,
his successor having been elected Tues
day. The records of his Office had been
very much neglected, and were
several months behind, and it is
now thought that he burned the min
utes of the meetings for some time
back, as they cannot be found, and the
stove contained remnants of village
stationery on which the minutes were
written. Last night he spent with
John c. Carlson. the president elect of
the village, until late hour, preparing
his financial statement, which was
found correct. His financial affairs
seem in good order. and the firm was
doing good business. Anderson was,
however, drinking pretty hard of late.
This, with the fact that his mother is
now confined in the asylum at st. Peter,
and that he was very attentive at re-
yival just closed here, go to make up a
plausible theory for his act. Some
claim that he was at tie time bereft of
reason. His partner, who lives at
Franconia, has been summoned here.

STRIKE OF THE COOKERS,
The Men Announce That the Fight
Is to Be Continued.

SCoTTDALE, Pa, April lot is now
absolutely certain that the coke strike
will be fought to the bitter end. This
was the unanimous decision of
to-day's strikers convention, and
it is. ringing throughout the re-
gion tonight. Seldom before has such
general interest been taken in a conven-
ton, and crowds of strikers and citizens
surround the Knights of Labor hall to
learn the outcome. The convention
was of special character, and this morn
ing business was commenced, and fully
eighty delegates answered to the
roll call. On account of its varied
Importance, every plant in the
region having representation, it was
evidenced early in the day by the ex-
preston of the delegates that the feel
ing of the masses was for the continua-
tion of the struggle, and subsequent
events only carried it out. Late
tonight the strikers are holding
jubilation meetings over the an
nouncement that Gov. Pattison has
ordered the Eighteenth regiment home
tomorrow morning. The Tenth regi-
ment will remain here for but a few
days, it is stated. The withdrawal of
the troops is pleasing omen to the
strikers that peace reigns here for good,
and the state is disposed to look rather
on their side of the Morewood killing
than to believe the first reports of riot
ers outrages preceding the shooting.

: FERGUS FALLS, April 10.-County
Auditor Pfefferle returned this morning
from Breckenridge, where he has been
to transact a disagreeable piece of busi-
ness. Emil Schleske, aged twenty-six,
has been paying court to Miss Annie
Steinberger, Pfefferle's sister-in-law,
who is under eighteen years. They
wanted to get married here, but the
family of Miss Steinberger objected,
and the match was oStensibly given up
by the young people. On the 9th inst,
however, Miss Steinberger disappeared
from home, and search for Schleske re-
vealed the fact that he also had gone.
1t was presently learned they had gone
to Breckinridge,i Wilkin county. Mr..
that they had taken out a marriage
license there, Mr.. Schleske making an
incorrect statement in regard to the age
of Miss Steinberger. He was too late
to prevent the marriage, but did the
next best thing, which was to swear out
warrant against Schleske on charge
of perjury in making false affidavit.
The case came before Wilkin county
justice of the peace yesterday and the
bridegroom was held to the grand Jury
in $500 bail, which was furnished. I'm
der the circumstances nobody suspects
the defendant will try to get away.
Schleske and his wife are living to-
gether, and it will be impossible to an
null the marriage now, but the friends
of the bride may have the satisfaction
of seeing the husband sent to states
prison for term.

trict attorney at New York the facts of

turned by him 10 the Burgundia, in
order that the culpable parties may be
vigorously prosecuted for violation of
the immigration law. Mr.. Weber re-
jected tWenty-one immigrants who

dia, as unfit to land, and
returned them to the vessel. Only three

tanned aboard the vessel and taken
away, the other eighteen being allowed
to escape. Under the law the steam
ship company is liable to fine of $500
in each case. Secretary Foster has
called the attention of the immigration
officers at Baltimore, Boston and Phila-
delphia to the violations of this law at
New York, and instructed them to
promptly and vigorously prosecute all

Of law occur at their ports.
