tence and is Re-Arrested.
BALTIMORE, May 1S.-Dominick Mar
chione, an Italian, just released from the
Maryland penitentiary, where he had
served five years for the killing of u
fellow workman in this state, was Fri
day re-arrested on the demand for
extradition as convicted and escaped
murderer, made by the consul of Italy
at Philadelphia, The story of the
alleged crime makes it appear that Mar
chione is member of the murderous
Malta gang. Michael Repucci was be-
lieved to know more than was considered
safe about a murder in which Marchione,
then known as Malchionda, and another
were concerned. Marchione and the
third man were heard to say that Re
pucci must be put away
On Nov. g. 1888, Repucci's body was
was found and is due course the mur-
derers were convicted and sent to the
galleys for life. It has not transpired
how Marchione escaped to this country,
but ii appears that his bloodthirsty ten

America, and his sentence to the Mary
land penitentiary for murder was the re-

Three hundred cars will contain over
5000 tons of coke. One oven running
regularly viii produce about ten tons Of
coke per week. To produce an increase
of 5000 tons would require 500 newly
fired ovens. On an average it requires
one man to operate an oven. The in
creased shipments, therefore, mean that
the working force of the coke region is
being steadily increased, despite any and
all alleged desertions, at the rate of 500
men per week.
The region, when running full, employs
10000 men, But it is estimated that
go per cent of the ovens will supply
all the present or immediate prospective
demands for coke, and to operate them
only so per cent of the number of men
are required, namely about 5000. 1t
will be seen that at the present rate of
increase the operators will have all the
labor they want within nine weeks.

lied Labor's Prospects.
CHICAGO, May lS.-Before leaving for
New York Friday, Thomas A. Edison
conferred with some of the worlds fair
directors in several matters. He argued
for twenty five cent admission and open
ing of the fair on Sunday--the latter for
the reason that thousands of laboring
people must go on that day or not at all
The officials We're impressed with the ar
gument for twenty-five cent admission
and the matter will be laid before the
rectory.
Worlds fair labor matters are much
nearer a solution than they were before
the conference meeting Friday night.
While no vote was taken by the directors
ON the question at issue, it is understood
that they will accede to the demands of
organized labor as explained to them
Friday night, The directors listened to
arguments by the labor leaders for the
fixing of minimum scale of wages and
finally concluded to hear members of
the Builders Exchange On the subject
next week. The opinion of several
directors is that the minimum rate will
be conceded.

SURE TO tE CAPTURED.
Several Other Vessels Watching for the
Fugitive Itata.

Fugitive Itata.
WASHINGTON, May 1S. A long cable
dispatch was received Friday at the
navy department, and three naval Off
GERS spent all day in unraveling its
contents. 1t is known at the de-
partment that the Chilian insurgent
cruiser Esmeralda went into Acapulco a
day or two ago. She appeared there
late in the evening, and was not, SO far
as is known, warned off by the Mexican
authorities, but had slipped out of the
harbor and disappeared before daylight.
1t appeared later in the day, when me
cable dispatch had been deciphered, that
it had been sent by Admiral Brown
from the san Francisco, which is now
at some Chilian port. Information as to
its contents was refused at the depart
ment, further than that it was an
answer from Admiral Brown to the in
structions cabled him last week. This is
an indication that even i'll event Of the
failure of the Charleston to catch the
Itata, the latter vessel will not have cs-
capped all danger, and VIII still have to
run the gauntlet Of the United States
vessels now on the Chilian coast.

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich, May 1s. The
danger from the forest fires in the west
end of the state seems tohave passed and
the only destruction now possible will
come in the half cleared districts where
the Goals still shoulder in old stumps and
dry brush on the ground. Friday rain
fell heavily and gave what is believed to
be the final stroke in this section. For
the first time since the 7th the people are
breathing easily.

LIBERIA SCARED.


" III blNIuS ana Iafcel IeI'
New YORK, May 18.--Liberia fears
she will be parceled out. Advices re-
ceived here from Liberia show that the
African republic is anxiously looking on
at the scramble for territory in the
Ozark Continent" now going on among
European powers. Liberia thinks she
has reason to fear that some ambitioI,j
European power may attempt to parcel
her out and destroy her nationality.
As Liberia was founded by an Ameri-
can society and populated by negroes
from this country, the people there look
to the United States as their natural
protector. William M. Davis was re-
Gently in this country on special mis-
sion from Liberia in regard to the mat
ter, and had an audience with Secretary
Blaine. A letter received from Mr..
Davis, by friend of his in this city, the
other day, said that he had received
every courtesy from Mr.. Blaine, and
was hopeful that his mission would not
be without fruit.

Century Plant About to Bloom.

Fort WAYNE, Ind, May 1S.-For
over forty years ex-Mayor W. p. Ran
dall had among his collections i'll his
conservatory a century plant which he
brought from Mexico nearly half cen
tuly ago. Two weeks ago Mr. Randall
noticed the plant had taken on sud
den and vigorous growth, so much so
that it pushed its way through the CON
servatory, breaking the glass. A shoot
from the center Of the plant has grown
four feet in two weeks time, and il
shows every evidence of blooming very
shortly. Ex-Mayor Randall believes
that his will have been the first century

The Rnpacious Owners of Chickamauga
Battle Ground.

CHATTANOOGA, May 1S.-There is i'm
minent danger that the prospects to
make a National park of the Chicka-
mauga battle ground will end in a fail
ure, the only reason being the rapacity
of the landowners. Property held at the
nominal value of S. to $40 an acre is
now thought to be worth 500 to $500
and even $500.
The committee will not favor a CON
demnation process, and, as they are dis
gusted with the spirit shown they will.
unless equitable prices are made, report
adversely upon the plan. This DISPOSE
ton was the subject of two-hours con-
ference Friday afternoon. Any further
steps will probably be defeated.

COKE SITUATION.
Independent Operators Form q
Combination
To Support the Strikers and
Down FriCk.

Operators and Strikers Disagree as to the
Number of Men at Work, but Figures
Won't Lie-RecOrd Showing the In
creased shipments of Coke Since the
Strike Began on Feb. 10.
PrTTsBURG, May 1S. - There is no
longer doubt that independent operators
have formed some sort of combination
to support the strikers so the mammoth
Frick works will not be able to under
sell them. Operator Hogsett plainly
stated Friday he would discharge any
man who refused to contribute to the
strikers fund. The formidable w. j.
Rainey non-union works have been
thrown open to collectors for strikers
fund for the first time in years. This is
a sort of revenge Rainey desires in view
of the many contracts he lost to Frick
while he had trouble with his men.
Figures Won't Lie.
The claims of the coke operators and
strikers rs to the number of men at work
at the different coke plants are widely
different. However, there is unbiased
testimony as to the situation in the shape
of cold figures that don't lie. The strike
began Feb. 10. Below is the record of
shipments from that date to the present,

eyes were shining bright,
And the lamplight softly fell upon the splendor

Your checks aglow-the sunset clouds,
Were not so passing fair.
heard the sweet low, pebbly
Sound of waters ripping free;
The murmuring trees, the whispering grass
and drOne of drowsy bee.
II was softly singing summer in some shady
woodland nook,
And my soul began TO pulsate
With the rhythm of the Brook.
seemed to see Your laughing face
At the bottom of the stream
A wav'ring, fieeting water nymph from some
Greek poets dream,
And your blue eyes seemed to beckon and then
laugh in elfish glee
On that dear old winter evening
When you played the Brook for me.
Little sweetheart, you've forgotten,
But the tinkle of that tune
Is still ringing in my mem'ry like soft bird
songs heard in June,
And the love that came that evening with that
ripping little river,
Though years may come and years may go,
Will still go on forever!"
