Murphy has never written letter on any public

wrote at Chicago last June declaring that Grover

letter well enough, and he is having his re-

The attempt to supply NewYork with rapid

Far failure. No bid worthy Of consideration

Some of MIR. Ccvcland's friends are talking
freely about Mr.. Murphy's attitude during the
recent campaign, when, as is generally known,
the chairman of the Democratic State Com
mttec was much more solicitous about securing
an Assembly pledged to support him for Senator
than about carrying the Stale for Cleveland and
Stevenson This is home thrust Moreover.
Mr.. Murphy took hand in Albany politics and
dstn tly disclC d his hostility 10 the Cleveland
faction there, both before and since the cleo
ton. The PresiGent-elect has plenty of reasons
for believing that Murphy as a Senator would
not be personally agreeable to him

reason TO be suspicious Of the Columbus celebra-

A Hero of the Future.

History records the unseltish DEEDS
and the bravery of our soldiers in time
of danger, and future history will record
the bravery of our workmen who earn
their daily bread amid great danger and
imminent peril. An inquest was held
last week by Mr.. Brighouse, county cor
oner at Parr, near st. Helens, on a man
named Richard Gill, aged fifty years
About a year and half ago he was
working in the shaft of coal mine with
three other men, blasting rock. The de-
ceased, after the shots were ready, told
the other men to get into the hopper
He then Sighted the fuse connected
with the shots and then got into the
hopper. He fancied he had given the
wrong signal and jumped out OF the
hopper to cut off the fuse. He managed
to cut off one, but the others were too
far burned. The other men begged him
to give the signal to ascend and get into
the hopper, but he said: "No, will stay
where l am. 1t is better for one man
to die than for ALL" Just then the hop
per began to ascend and the other men
were drawn to the top, and soon after
Gill pulled the signal wire and they
went down to him and found him bad
ly injured about the head He had a
compound fracture of the skull, and re-
manned five months in the hospital, but
never got over his injury.-London

Spaniards as Shoplifters.

Spaniards are now said to be most
predominant among the criminals ar
rested for stealing in large shops or
pocket picking on race courses or at
great public gatherings. Several Ibe,
rians have been caught purse snatching
at the Gingerbread fair, and there have
just appeared before the police court
two men and two women from over the
Pyrenees who practiced shoplifting on
a large scale. The Spaniards, who had
been suspected of pocket picking in the
Jardin discrimination, were logged by
q detective, who saw them enter the
Grands Magasins du Louvre. They
drove to the place in hired victoria
the jehu of which was one of the men
After having remained for awhile in the
shop they saw that they were being
watched, so they left the place, entered
their vehicle and were conveyed to the
Printemps.
Thither the detective followed them,
and although he had no ocular proof
that the Spaniards stole anything he ar,
rested the lot, the driver of the victoria
being seized by policeman who had re-
ceived instructions to observe his move
ments. Under the cushions of the We
hicle were found three large pieces Of
silk which had been stolen from the
Louvre shops and were valued at little
over forty pounds. Telegraph

A Newspaper in an Earthquake.

Probably no issue of a newspaper was
ever put in type under more trying Cir
cumstances than this issue. The type
was badly pied, and as it was put in
position it was necessary to wedge it
securely to keep each shock from undo
ing the work of days. The compositors
stood bravely at their posts, even in mo-
ments of the greatest danger, when the
brick walls threatened to collapse and
bury them in the ruins. We were com.
PEELED to move our office after Thurs.
days shock, and much more damage
was done, but we, after all, were de-
layed but three or four hours with our
edition.-Dixon (Cal.) Tribune.

Mr.. weslosIsy's Aristocratio Hen.

At the farm of Mr.. Maurice Weslosky,
of Albany, Plymouth Rock hen had
been set on sixteen eggs-thirteen of
which were Plymouth Rock eggs and
the other three eggs of common breed
of chickens. The motherly old hen
Matched out the whole sixteen, but when
they were all able to run about accord
ing to her clucking she seemed to eye
the three little aliens suspiciously. That
Biddy disapproved the mixture of the
breed was at once evinced by the scorn-
full manner assumed, and soon she
showed it in an emphatic way by falling
viciously on the three strangers and
putting a sudden and violent end to
their young lives.-Cor. Atlanta Con-
stitution.

English Reporters Must BE Educated.

There are to be no ignoramuses in the
English journalism of the future A
special committee of the institute of the
profession has prepared a report in
which it is recommended that candidates
for admission to membership must pass
an examination in the English language,
English literature, English constitution
and political history, political and physi-
cal geography. They must also have a
sufficient knowledge" of Latin, either
French and German, and "some &C.
quaintance" with universal history.
But perpaps the most important rec
ommendation of all is that every candi-
date shall be examined in "The Princi-

THE DEAD AND WOUNDED.
AS nearly as can be ascertained the
list of workingmen killed and injured
is as follows: John Morris, shot
through the center of the forehead,
married but no children, heater; Hen
ry Striegel, aged q years, single, shot
through the neck, killed instantly:
Markowisky, Hungarian laborer, shot
through the breast; Andrew Striegel,
brother of Henry, shot through the
chest; Martin Foy, heater, married
and leaves five children.
Following are the names of the
wounded, but there are believed 20 be
other casualties which have not been
reported: Miles Laughran, dying,
shot through the leg and hips; Joe
Sitta, shot through the legs; Martin
Murray, shot through the legs; VIM.
Fry, probably fatally injured; Michael
Murray, Andrew Saurler. John Kane,
Harry Hughes and two unknown,
taken to houses some distance from
Homestead evidently badly hurt.
The list of Pinkerton men at the
hospital in Pittsburg is as follows:
Dead. w. Klien, shot in the head.
Injured-Capt. f. H. Helm, shot in
the left leg, bullet extracted will re-
cover; Russell Wells, shot in right
shoulder; j. G. Hoffman, shot in the
right leg; David Lester, shot in the
head, seriously injured; another man
shot in the arm, but he left the hos
pital and the authorities did not
know his name. One other man was
injured, but is not yet at the hos
pital.
CAPTAIN HELMS STATEMENT.
Captain Helm, one of the injured,
has been in the employ of Pinkerton
many years and has had charge Of
men in several large strikes. He was
always considered very conserva-
tive man. When seen in one of the
rooms at the hospital this afternoon
he said: 81 have had charge of these
men and they were picked up in Chi
cago and New York. They were a
very fair lot of men. They numbered
200 all told, and L gave them strict
orders not to shoot until fired upon.
When we proceeded to land about
day a whistle blew and Immediately
the strikers commenced to shoot. To
project ourselves we had to return
the fire. Seven or eight of our men
were hurt but don't know their
Names"
Capt. Helm stated that he did not
know much about the strike, but was
ordered to take charge or the men
and protect the property and he did
the best he knew how. "The odds
W ere against u.s." said the captain,
"and it was hard to do anything. 1
regret very much any shooting was
done.n
Charles Hoffman said: "When we
were about to land at the works the
strikers commenced to fire at us and
we returned the fire. They started
the whole business"

about three pounds of the nails had been
carried to an elevated place by one OF
his pigeons and used in building nest. y

Towards dusk efforts were again
made to burn the boats with their liv-
ing freight, and they would doubtless
have succeeded had it not been for
the interposition of leading officers of
the Amalgamated association who
went to the scene in the afternoon.
Through their efforts it was agreed to
allow the detectives to surrender, but
this was not secured without the
greatest objection on the part of the
men, many of whom had lost friends
and acquaintance during the
day. Besides, as in nearly all
such outbreaks thousands OF turbu-
lent characters had been attracted to
the place and as they owed no al
legiance to any organization they
could not be controlled. They wanted
to see the carnage go on and it was
not till some of the strikers pointed
their guns at outsiders that hearing
was obtained.

FANCY FIGURES.
Emmett Morrow Creates a Sen.
sation in Rudolphtown.
Hell Reported as Buying rs. 600 Pounds
of Tobacco at 5000 Per Hun
dred.

Emmett Morrow took his rabbit.
foot to RudolphtoWn country Friday
and bought all the good tobacco in
that country with the exception OF a
few crops. 1t is reported that he pur-
chased $4,000 pounds at an average of
$9 per hundred. This would put in
circulation, in that vicinity Sc, $50.
The LEAF-CHRONICLE could not
learn all the farmers who unloade d
at these fancy figures, but some are
here given: w. G. Brawner sold his
crop for $l0.25 per hundred, round:
Joe Ryan went him one better and
sold for $1l per hundred. The Freys
all sold at good prices, while Will
Trigg, Jas. Hy8lnith, Will and Jas.
WEIGH sold all they had at figures I'M
der the above. This is the biggest
sale that has yet been reported, but
many other buyers have been in the
woods and it is safe to say that some
more fancy sales have been made.
These prices have been the cause OF
running the farmers in the surround
ing country almost wild with tobacco
excitement, and they do say that the
fun is not yet all over. All should
bear in mind, however, that the
crops mentioned above are
among the best of the Clarks-
vile Tobacco District. The men
mentioned always raise good to.
bacco and they usually get the top
prices. 1t has been a long time,
however, since they have received
anything like this for their crops, and
it goes without saying that "Bettie"
will have new dress this winter and
the boys will all wear red.top boots.
Let the good work continue.
