LONDON COAL roRrERs.
Coal Famine Threatened in London by
the Strike of Porters.

Coal Famine Threatened in London by
the Strike Of Porters.
LONDON, Feb. 20.-The striking coal
porters declare that they viii not uyieid un-
til their demands are conceded To show
the disadvantages under which the deliv-
cry of coal is accomplished owing to the
strike it may be said that the owners of
coal depots could be seen to-day driving
their own wagons. A few of the wagons
were driven by men not belonging to the
Coal Porters' union. Strikers would fol-
low these wagons for the purpose of either
inducing or forcing the drivers to leave
them, but the police were yigilant and all
such attempts were frustrated.
Nearly ever coal depot on the River
Thames is at standstill Thirty barges
are waiting to be unloaded at Black Friars.
The strike was entirely unexpected by the
men, who were appraised of the action taken
by the leaders by delegates who were dis
patched TO the depots with orders for the
men to quit work So suddenly was the
strike decided upon that the men employed
in the depots did not have time to procure
a supply of coal against the famine with
which London is now threatened The re-
tail dealers have already advanced the
price of the commodity, and this will cause
much suffering among the poor, who are
compelled TO buy their coal in small quaint
ties. II the strike continues it will cause
widespread distress, for factories and places
of that description will be compelled to
close down because oil lack of fuel, and
many men will thus be thrown out of en-
ploymeut.

Missouri and Mr.. Harter of Ohio had a
lively tilt in the house to-day on the silver
question in which the latter was badly
worsted. He is the same congressman who
has been sending out circular letters
to Texas that argued against the free coin
age of silver. The Missourian showed up
Harter as national banker and gold Dug,
and exposed his scheme of working up oppo-

circular method. Harter's defense

Given One Of the Train Kobbers The Other Now on
Trial Will Get Dose.
At the trial of Collins, the train
robber, at Huntington last Saturday,
Judge Harvey instructed the jury that
if they were satisfied beyond a reason
able doubt that Collins had conspired
to rob the train and the killing of
Teck was incidental to the carrying
out Of that purpose, they should find
the prisoner guilty of murder in the
first degree. He also instructed them
that it mattered not whether Forgey
or Collins fred the fatal shot, both
were equally guilty. The jury came
in about noon with verdict Of guilty
and fixed the penalty at Imprisonment
for life. His apparent youth, coupled
with the fact Of his having made
clean breast of the whole affair, prob
ably had some weight with the jury.
