DRIVING OUT AMERICANS.
Evils Discovered in PennsyIvania C,raI
Fields by Inspector COnkling.


SCRANTON, Pa, Jan. 25.-Inspector
John Conkling's report to the Immigra-
ton authorities at New York shows a
deplorable state of affairs existing in the
Pennsylvania coal fields.
When the Inspector was in this vicin-
ity he found thmt the miners, to a great
extent, were composed of the worst ele-
ments of Austrians, Hungarians, Slavs
and Italians. They receive much small
Ter wages than the American, Irish or
Welsh miners can afford to live on. The
bosses prefer the foreigners because their
work being cheaper makes the price of
mining coal much lower.
The managers of the mines admitted
to the inspector that these alien laborers
are not law-abiding, but they employ
them because they can be better utilized
than the English-speaking class. A de-
preston in the wages of the miners is
one of the results of the continuous i'm
portation of Hungar1ans and Slavs, and
in a short time, it is feared, there will be
no such individual as an English-speak-
ing miner.
The voter, taxpayer and citizen is
being gradually driven from the mines
by the unfair competition, and the in
spector recommends that the spirit, as
well as the letter of the law, as contained
in the acts of 1891, should be enforced
against the alien miners.
The payment of a percentage of wages
to foremen is of frequent occurrence on
the part of the laborers, and in every
other way the law is violated, the inspec-
tor states. The steamship companies,
too, aid the bosses in violating the law,
the inspector adds, acting through sub
agents, who ship the men, advancing
money for the passage and charging ex-
tortionate interest. In other words, their
passages are prepaid by the steamship

This Nav Mean War With Brazil.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-Senor Men
donca, the Brazilian Minister, who Gre
ated quite scene at the Academy of
Music Saturday night by refusing to have
his carriage come up in the regular
way, but calling it up in violation of
police regulations, is much commented
upon. He tried to run in ahead of Sena-
tor Dolph, and become greatly incenscd
when the officers in charge made him go
out of the way. He went to the station
and preferred charges and said he in
tended to make diplomatic fuss about it.

ALBANY, N. Y, Jan. 25.-The Court of
Appeals by the unanimous opinion of
the Judges of the First Division except
one not sitting in the case has decided
that no property holder can recover any
damages against the elevated railroads if
his New York city property has been in
creased in value by the building of the
road, and the holding of most of the
Judges in the courts below, that the
benefits to property arising from the
construction of the elevated railroads
could not be considered in fixing the
damages, has been reversed.

Trouble Likely in Ecuador.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.- Information
has been received in this city that trouble
is imminent in Ecuador, growing out of
the alleged assumption of dictatorial
powers of the President. The occasion
of the trouble is that as the time APP
proaches for the election OF successor
to the present incumbent of the Presi-
dency, his opponents charge that he is

Angeles Patient.
''What is your experience, doctor,
with your morphine and drinking
patients ?" was the query of HERALD
reporter to DR.. Bacon, who is in charge
of the DIR. Harrison cure, at 30S15 South
Spring street. The doctor leaned back
in his chair while with satisfied air he
referred the scribe to man of about 35
years of age, who was present.
The person referred to gave his name
as Barnard, former resident of Boston,
Mass. He appeared to be a man of
more than ordinary intelligence, and
told the following story:
II am college graduate. My every
prospect was bright and hopeful. Eight
years ago I had an accident which re-
suited in my not being able to sleep. I
started in drinking liquors for relief
the result was became a drunkard,
spending every cent that l could get
hold of for liquor. I have tried four
sanitariums in the east, but never could
eradicate that fearful craving for alco-
holics. Since taking DIR. Harrison's
cure have not had the first desire for
drink, and furthermore l have not
known what it is to be broke, either.
have money with me at all times, my
own earnings, which the saloon keepers
do not get."
During the course of the conversation
several patients dropped in, all of whom
were unit in their expressions of faith
in the cure, as their cravings had also
disappeared.
