A Rare Opportunity to Purchase
Fine Jersey Cattle.

Mrs. L. +. King will sell at public sale,
on the Fair Grounds, during the Fair, her
entire herd of Jerseys, thirty odd head,
from yearlings to the finest milk cows.

herd, selecting his breeders from the most
celebrated herds in the east, with special
reference to their butter making qualities.
Among this herd will he found number
registered and others eligible to regstra-
ton. Pedgrees will be furnished to those

Fertilizers are in great demand at this
time, and wagons can be seen in great
numbers leaving the varIous warehouses
along the railroad loaded with the sweet
smelling compounds. The railroad is
taxed to its utmost capacity in hauling it
from the factories, and il Is no unusual
sight to see freight trains made up of cars
from different roads and many from other
states. Agents complain that they cannot
get their orders filled without trouble
some delays mostly owing to the crowded
condition of the railroads. The manage
ment of the Valley Branch seem to be
making every effort to hurry things along
as the great number of trains passing over
the road will show. Day or night the
rumbling of the train and the whistle OF
the engine is almost constantly heard

the race. As it stands to-
night the choice Of commander
in-chief is between Weissert, OF
Wisconsin, Smedburg, OF California,
Hurst, of Ohio, and Hedges, OF New
York. Weissert's candidacy is the only
one that is sharply defined as to States.
The West, with the exception OF the
Pacific Coast, is practically solid for
this candidate. The ''race problem"
still looms up ominously in the
G. A. R., and the question on every
lip now is, can this dispute be
settled by the encampment without
serious disruption in the Southern divis-
ions? The whites Of the department OF
Louisiana and Mississippi still insist the
negro ex-soldier must not be admitted
to membership with the whites, while
the colored veterans vow they
will reject the brotherhood OF the
G.. A. Z. rather than submit to the con-
ditlons Of a separate organization In
each Southern State for the colored
members OF the order. The colored del
egates from Louisiana will make a re-
quest tomorrow to present their side OF
the case in an address TO the encamp-
ment.
Tonight was devoted to receptions to
the Commander-in-Chief, the Woman's
Relief Corps and the Sons OF Veterans
by the citizens OF Detroit at the En-
campment hall. Later in the evening
reception was rendered the Comman-
der-in Chief at the Exposition building.
On both occasions Gen. Veazey made
brief speeches Of acknowledgements
and thanks.

While he was away, the sugar trust
maintained its price for granulaied
sugar, but Claus Spreckles, who mad
been keeping his sales up to those
charged by the trust, at once announced
reduction of 1-16 per pound
He cut seriously into the trade OF tne
sugar trust, but no action TO meet sne
cut was taken, as it was believed tnas

A MINE SENSATION.
The Meyer Mine Claimed to Have Been
Fired by Strikers.

PITTsBURG, August A special from
Uniontown, Pa, says: The miners OF
this district are greatly excited over the
queer doings at the Meyer mine OF w.
J. Rainey. At IL o'clock this morn
ing Mine Inspector Duncan. Coro-
ner Holbert and Deputy Coroner
Cavender, evidently acting under
orders, went to Meyer to-day and en-
tered the Gray mine In search OF the
three Slavs who were thought to have
lost their lives February l6. The affair
at the time was very mysterious, and
every effort was made TO keep the mat
ter secret, but the following were ascer-
tanned to be the facts in the case:
At the time OF the great coke strike,
three Slavs were employed by the
Rainey Company to work In the Gray
mine, being employed at the time In lay
ing track in room No. Q. On the morn
ing OF February l6, three strikers were
seen 20 enter the mine shortly after the
Slavs had gone 10 work. Soon after
the men came out, and II was then dis
covered tnab tuo Hiho was NH
fire. The mine was then flooded and as
soon as the fire was extinguished the
work OF pumping began and has con-
tinued steadily ever since. There was
a great deal OF talk at the time OF the
frq..theatr atrikeSs clkebSwtRR, @fie et6sng ngas
freely expressed their opinion that II
had been set on fire with the deliberate
purpose Of killing the three Slavs.
This afternoon at 1890 o'clock, the
three gentlemen who had entered the
mine, came TO the surface bringing with
them the bodies OF the three unfortun-
ate Slavs. They were in an excellent
state of preservation, owing to the fact
that they had been covered most OF the
time with sulphur water.
Every effort was made by the men I'm
charge of the mine to follow out Rain
ey's previous efforts to keep the matter a
profound secret, and the yards and
mouth of the mine were closely guarded.
The strikers who were seen TO enter
the mine before the fire have been
shadowed all the month, and were called
up before the jury In ConDellsyille this
afternoon.
The pumper who was on duty at the
mine, and quit work so suddenly before
the fire has also been watched, and II Is
said will have a story to tell that will
make IL interesting for some Of the
strikers. The result OF the inquest Is
being watched for with greatest In
terest.
