PITTsBURG, Pa, March 5.--The wage
committee of the Udited Mine workers
have had meeting with majority OF
the coke operators, and utterly failed tc
come to any terms regarding the disas.
trous coke strike now on in this region.
At the very outset, the miners stated
that they would submit to no reduction,
whereupon it became evident that nc
action looking to settlement would be
taken. The operators stated that they
would not make settlement on any
other conditions than that of a ten pei
cent. reduction. This caused commo-
ton among the labor representatives.
and the proposition was unconditionally
refused.
The operators said that the trade was
in more perplexed condition now than
two or three weeks since. The miners
reported that under no conditions would
they agree to the offered reduction
when coke was selling at higher price
now ($4.90) than when the old scale was
formulated at S1.15.
A long strike now confronts the re.
gion, and the convention Of United Mine
workers now in session at Scottdale will
establish commissaries and relief com
mittees, and prepare for siege. The
w. j. Rainey works are running in full
again, heavily guarded by deputies to

The Clothing Makers.

Boston, March 5.-George E. McNeill
the well known labor leader, author and
agitator, has written an open letter to
Governor Russell in regard to the sweat
er clothing dens of New York, in which
clothing is manufactured for the Boston
market.
Recent disclosures regarding the evils
of this system has caused decided SEN
sation in labor circles here.
Among other things, McNeill says:
A legislative investigation of those
conditions will not be a pleasant excur-
sion, but it will reveal conditions equal
to the horrors of the mid passage of q
slave ship, and much more dangerous to
the public than that accursed business.

The Northern Pacific in Fair Way to
Make Gould Happy.
New YORK, March 5.-The United
States supreme court rendered final de-
cision in the hotly contested suit Of the
St. Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba
(now the Great Northern) Railwa CO a.
pany against the Northern Pacific rail
road, in which title was disputed to
about 10000 acres of land, conferred
under congressional grant. The decis;
ion is in favor of the NorthernPacifc
railroad, and involves over $4,000, 1000.
A peculiarly interesting phase of the
decision is it's probable effect on the price
of Northern Pacific stocks. When the
Northern Pacific was reorganiZed two
years ago it was provided in the plan
that the proceeds of these land sales,
which might accrue to the company,
should be devoted to the retirement of
the company's preferred stock. The
company will now come into the mar
ket as purchaser of this stock, and at
present prices the outlook is that the
funds will be sufficient for the retire
ment of not less than some 81, ,000, 900 of
the stock. This will advance the price

EXAMINATION WAIVED.
James j.. PiCkard Charged
With Violating Sec. 4O46
of the Revised u. S.
Statutes.
His Case Now Goes Before the
Next Term of the District
Court.

The charge against Assistant Postmas-
! ter James ]. .Pickard, of the Huntsville
Post Office, for embezzleing money order
funds, heretofore continued came up be-
fore U. S. Circuit Court Commissioner
James I'll. Bone last Thursday.
Upon the case being called Capt. L..
w. Day appeared and asked that his
name be entered in behalf of the defend
ant.
The defendant was arraigned and filed
plea of not guilty.
The Government announced ready for
an examination, thereupon the defendant
moved to waive examination, and asked
that bond for his appearance before i the
next U. S. Court be fixed.
Bail was fixed at $4,000, and the de-
fendant was taken in custody by the Mar
shall to secure bail.
Upon memorandum examination of
the witnesses present for the Govern
ment, the following evidence was adj
I duced:
WITNESS FRANK E. LITTLE.
am Postoffice Inspector, have made
an examination of the books and accounts
of the money order business of the Post
office at Huntsville, as kept by the defen-
dant; and | find that the business of the
money order office as shown by the cash
book, has been falsifed to great extent,
more especially since the first of January
nary, the defendants cash book balance
is $51.50, while his statement to the
superintendent of the money order sys-
tenn, the balance is shown to be $203. GA.
On the Oath of January his entry on the
cash book shows balance of $376.5",
while his balance as reported to the su-
perintendent OF the money order is
S70702. Between that date, January
oath, and February 21st, the cash book
account has been so falsiied as to show
total deficiency of $772.70. This has
largely been done entering the money or
ders and postal notes paid at an amount
largely in excess of the actual vouchers.
This amount may possibly be increased
when the Auditor balances his account,
from the fact that no record has been
kept at the Huntsville office of postal
notes paid, and in the above statement |
have been compelled to take the entries
as they appear, from the cash book.

Edison a Vegetarian.

Thomas A. Edison, according to q
friend of his, is avegetarian, eschewing
flesh, fowl and fish. He enjoys fruit Of
all kind, grain OF every variety, and
likewise vegetables, especially those
that ripen in the sunshine. Heis very
careful about his diet, holding that it
has a powerful influence upon the
mind and it's actions as well as upon
the health and yigor Of the body He
has studied the matter under the
beams of the solar orb, under the
dash OF electricity, under the laws of
science and in the light Of reason It
