A kentucky Hanging.

LOUISVILLE, March 25.-From the
same gallows from which Turner and
Patterson were hanged, Henry smith
was swung into eternity this morning
for murder. The crime which brought
Smith to the scaffOld was committed
in the afternoon of January Is, 1891.
Without provocation he shot down
bis employer, Louis Specht. After
lingering five days Specht died. The
scene of the crime was Spechts
saloun and grocery, at the Eight
Mile house, on Brownsboro road.
Smith did not close his eyes
during the night. At s O'Clock, just
after service by Rev. Taylor, Smith
was handcuffed and bis arms
pinioned. Immediately afterwards
the start wac made for the scaffold.
When he mounted the scaffold Smith,
" hose courage had never left
him, stepped to the front and
made hort speech. He said he had
nothing to say but welcome death.
He was satisfied that he would pass
into the world where there was
nothing but happiness. He closed
with fervent amen. He then
stepped on the trap. AS the moose
was put around his neck, smith
laughed aud said, "bs careful" He
was smiling all the while. AT 6:20
the black cap was put on and the
moose adjusted. AT 6:22 the trap fell.
The body dropped perfectly stiff,
but after second 1T began
jerking In commissions. At "a
Smiths hands began twitchiug.
This lasted for a moment or two and
then the body became limp. At 6 SSl
Doctor Gavin pronounced him deac.

PICKING up CoURAGE.

TIL e HomestG .d strikers Are Again Active
since the Hithdrawal of the Militia
HoMEsTsAb, PA, July 2a-The people
are beginning to pick up interest in the
strike since the withdrawal of large
body of troo ps, at least it has been mo-
tlceable all evening that larger ASSEM-
blages Of lock ed out men are congre-
eating on venues leading to the mill
and discussing the fight in louder tones
than in three weeks. During the even
ing several strangers were closely inter-
rogated by bodies OF the men, and it is
plainly to be seen once again the peo-
pie here are beginning to assume cons
troll OF their own town. OF course,
though, with the militia so near and so
many sheriffs lettering around ready to
report any undue exercise OF authority
it is improbable that the locked out
mill men will again attempt to so thor
oughly control municipal matters MS
they did; yet any non-union men who
get of trains and announce their inten-
ton Of going to work, as several did un.
molested earlier in the week, would
surely find their way obstructed.
The advisory committee was IN
very compliment mood this evening
over the turning back of thirty-fye non
union men who were coming to take
Jobs. The committee having been
warned that the above number OF steel
workers had left indianapolis, they
sent delegation to Birmingham and
Pittsburgh, where the place-seekers
we're intercepted, and after long par
ley all agreed to return, and also to en-
deavor TO dissuade others from coming
to Homestead who were only waiting
their report
The committee claims that although
o month has passed, the lines Of the
Homestead men are broken, and they
are starting another month full Of hope
and fight. This statement, however, is
contradicted at the works tonight
where Superintendent Potter said that
lorty.two men who formerly belonged
to the Homestead lodge OF the Amalga-
mated Association are now working in
the mill. Most of the men according
to Mr.. Potter went to the works to
learn for themselves whether the re-
port Of the number OF strange men work
ing in the mill we're true. On being
convinced they removed their coats
and have not left the mill. This is q
remarkably small per centage, Of $500
men and indicates the degree OF firm
ness the men exhibit.
Speculation concerning Hugh 0'Don-
nell's whereabouts is again on tip toe,
and all sorts OF rumors agitate the
looked.out men who are not in the con-
fidence of the advisory committee. 1t
is said tonight that o'Donnell is not
on vacation, but in New York arrang-
ing disagreeable surprise for the
Carnegie Steel Company.

Col. G. W. q Black. one of the lead

Colonel Black had to say in regard to
the politics Of the Mountain state.
"0ur state convention will meet next
week." he said, land 1 hope will choose
that brilliant, able, and popular gentle
man, Hon. G. w. Atkinson, OF Wheel
ing, as the Republican gubernatorial
candidate. He is the one man with
whom we can win. No man in the
state is better liked, no one would
arouse such a feeling of enthusiasm.
The young men are particularly devoted
to him and would work for his success
with unwonted energy. The Republic
cans have now golden opportunity Of
redeeming West Virginia from Demo-
cratic domination, and if they are wise
will utilize it by nominating Atkinson.

steel are stronger and 81 to So per ton
higher, but greater Generalization is
expected in pig iron unless more of the
consuming works start speedily. Bar

manufacturers OF plate and structural
iron have more orders than they can
well handle, but no improvement is seen
in rails.
Trade and collections are better than
a year ago at Chicago, even retail
trade increasing in spite of the weather.
Money has been extremely easy at II
