defense every opportunity, had de
cided that 1t would not be necessary
to continue the Cotton case, unles,
some better causes were shown.
Mr., Nields then called Drs. Bullock
| Wales and Shortlidge, each of whom
testified that they had visited tho wit
ness Mclaughlin, and found him in {
very bad condition.
Each of these physicians had seer
Mclaughlin within a few days, ant
found him with a high fever, and a
sore throat. Neither OF them thought
that it would be safe to compel him tc
come to court.
Mr.. Blggs called Drs. Tumlinson and
Hughes, who testified that they also
had visited and examined the witness,
and thought that he was able to come
| to court.
After argument by counsel, the
court decided to take the case up on
| next Wednesday morning ut 10 O'clock
Israel Farrall, colored, of Odessa,
pleaded guilty to charge of selling
liquor without license, but explained
to the court that II WAS some whiskey
| which he had in the house for his own
use and that n man begged 50 hard for
drink that he let him have it. The
court decided that this was no excuse
and sentenced him to pay line of $50.
He asked the court what they would
do II he could not pay the fine, when
the Chief Justice replied: you will
have to go to jail
The case OF Joseph Norton, who
pleaded guilty TO AN indictment for
larceny, was postponed until this
morning to give him a chance to
bring witnesses to prove his character
The name of Elwood Clark, charged
with fraud at tho last election, was
called three times, and as he did not
answer, his bail was declared for
feited.
Lewis Cox and Joseph Hickey, who
pleaded guilty to the larceny OF a
brace from Andrew Long, were placed
in the dock, when +. II. Hoileeker
Esq, made plea in behalf OF Cox and
said that this was his first offense.
Walter Hayes. ESQ, testified to his
previous good character, and the
court, after giving him some excellent
advice, sentenced him to pay the costs,
80 restitution money and be impris-
oned one month.
Hickey then called on Sheriff Sim
mons to speak in his behalf, and he
gave him somewhat of negative
Recommendation by saying that he
did not know anything against him.
The records of tho court showed that
he had been convicted for larceny once
before, and he was sentenced to pay
the costs, - restitution money be I'M
prisoned three months and whipped
with 10 lashes.
Court then took recess.

WILMINGTON, DEL, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY r. 1891.
A Great Coke Strike.

PITTsBuRG, Pa, Feb. 11.-Scottdale
pespatches report no indications OF a
settlement of the coke strike. Every
plant in the district is now involved
and long struggle Ia anticipated.
The employees of w j. Rainey are
still the stumbling block to the sue
cess to the movement, as thoy refuse
to come out. The labor leaders are
now among them and 1t would be no
surprise to witness strike OF over
1000 of his men at any time. Rainey
Is fortlfying strongly against the at
tacks of the strikers. 1t is understood
that In addition to having forty Pink
erton detectives guarding his works,
he is sending for help from the Sheriff
Of Fayette county.
Sheriff Mccormick will likely refuse
any assistance until il is absolutely
necessary. 1t is reported here that the
Dunbar furnace will have TO be banked
ii the strike continues any length Of
time. ..The strikers present very
bold front. Crowds OF them are stand
around on the street corners here to-
day discussing the situation. The
general verdict is to remain on strike
until their demands are conceded.
A desperate fight occurred at Fair
Haven last night, which is attributed
to = the strike. Two Hungarians,
named Multrac and Kullota, fell out,
and the former struck the latter with u
brick, probably fatally hurting him.
Kullota's little girl was also badly
hurt by her fathers assailant, who has
been locked up.

good title to the lands, and that the
lands are fertile and at present a
barrier to the rapid growth of the
Southwest, thousands of good settlers
being kept out for the benefit OF a
comparatively few Indians.

SYMPTOMS OF BRONCHIAL CA
TARRH WHICH SHOULD BE
Needed IN TIME.
Foreruuners of Fate which May
Come to You II the Warnings of
Dame Nature arc not Speedily
Needed.

When catarrh has existed in the head
and the upper part Of the throat for any
length OF time and the disease has been
left uncured, the cntarrh invariably.
sometimes extends down the windptpe
and into the bronchial tubes which tube
convey the air into the different parts
OF the lungs. The tubes become Affect
ed from the swelling and mucus nris ing
from catarrh. and in some instances be-
come plugged up, so that the air cannot
get In as freely as 1t should. Shortness
of breath follows, and the patien /
breathcs with labor and di ftlculty.
The pain which accompanies this con-
dition Is OF II duh character felt In the
chest behind the brepstbone or under
the shoulder-blade. The pain may come
md 20. last few days and then be Rb-
sent for several others The cough that
occurs in the first stage OF bronchial
catari h is dry comes ut intervals is hack
ing in character, ana usually most
troublesome I'm the morning oil arising
or going to bed at night and it may be
the first evidence of the disease extend
ing in the lungs.
At first there may be nothing brought
up by the cough. thcn there is little
tough tenacious mucus which the pa
tient finds great difficulty in bringing
up. p.
induced by the tough mucus-so violent
as to cruise vomiting. Lnteron the mu-
Gus that Is raised is found to contain
small particles OF yellow matter that IN
dieates that tho small tubes in the lungs
are now affected. With this there nre
oftcn streaks of blood mixed with the
mucus.
In some cases small masses OF cheesy
substance arc spit up, which when
pressed between the fingers emit bad
odor. In other cnsos parttcles of hard
chalkey nature nre spit up. The raising
of cheesy or clulkey Jumps indicates
serious mischief at work At tl,e lungs.
A weak stomach and dislike for food
which seems to have lost its taste,
causes the patient to think ho hns dl-
sease of the stomach instead Of III,
lungs. In bronchial catnrrh tho vcice
often becomes weak. husky and hoarsc.
There is burning pain in tile throat.
with difficulty in swallowing.
This is u disease which has been and
is still being treated with fiatterinE sue
cess by Drs. Mccoy and Wildman, 9O5

The meeting in the Builders Ex-
change hall last evening was well at
tended by Wilmington merchants, who
talked over in an orderly way many
details of personal business OF no In
terest TO the public.
The reports of bills collected be-
cause Of the influence OF the assocla-
ton were proof of the advantage Of
membership.
An informal discussion looked fnv-
orably toward appropriate legislation
concerning Inherent vendors of bank

We understand the membership fee
is ten dollars and believe this associa-
ton promotlSe of mutual honest deal
ing between the people and merchants.
Every merchant should join it.

SEATTLE, Wash, Feb. 11.-Ever since
the killing of prize fighter Schaeffer,
the newspapers have been roasting
the police force numerically. The
latter retaliating by running in every
one who dares to criticise their acts
the most notable case being the arrest
yesterday of Philip Hay prominent
capitalist OF Boston, who came here
with $40, 600 in letters of credit from
Boston and New York, and credentials
from the Y. M. @. A. Hay happened

remarked that 1t was shameful. He

PTTTsDuRa, Feb. 11.-Colonel Archi-
bald Blakely, counsel for Rusnak,
Sabol and Tobol, the Hungarian riot
ers at Andrew Carnegie's Braddoek's
Steel Works, who were convicted on
Saturday of murder in the first degree,
made motion before Judge Stowe to-
day for new trial. 1t is based upon
a claim, first, that the Court erred in
admitting to the jury three men who
had previously served as jurors in the
trial on the charge of riot; second, that
the Court erred in refusing some OF
the defendants points; third, that the
evidence was not sufficient to warrant
a verdict OF first degree in any of the
cases, but that in reality it demanded
Rusnak's or Sabol's acquittal. Judge
Stowe, in receiving the motion, said
that so far as his recollections went,
the evidence certainly did not warrant
the conviction of either Rusnak or
Sahol. Colonel Blakely is confident
that new trial will DO granted.

CHARLESTON, W. Va, Feb. 1.-THE
House to-day passed bills prohibiting
the sale of cigarettes or opium to
minors under l6, and requiring all ar
titicial butter sold III the State b" h3e
colored pink. Both bills only await
the signature Of the Governor TO he
come laws. The Democratic members
held a caucus tonight to decide upon
tioning the State. In view of the fact
that they have always protested that
the redistricting would be fairly done
and no party advantage taken, the
Republicans think the fact of their
holding II secret caucus on the subject
looks rather inconsistent.
