HIS OWN FAULT.

Congressman Bartine has been In
Nevada a week now, and so far as the
Silver State has learned he has
shown no disposition to join the Sill
yer party and fight on the same IN
dependent lines at home as he did at
Washington. The Silver State had
hoped differently, and parting COM
pany with him, as it will do with all
that oppose in any way the indepen-
dent movement in Nevada, is no
pleasant task, but the fault lies with
himself Silver State.
Bartine in spite of warnings from
his friends persisted in placing the
management of his fight in the hands
of Trenmor Coffin.
1t was a mistake in the first place,
because Coffin has no longer the
slightest influence in politics, and if
he had he would use it all for him
self and not for Bartine or anybody
else.
Coffin IS purely for Coffin and will
stop at no act of treachery to gain
his ends
Had he given Bartine the proper
advice he would have signed the Sill
yer League rolls and with his record
in Congress would have been hard
man to beat.
Now he is already beaten. The
State Convention will be controlled
by silver men and viii nominate
Newlands who is member of the
Silver League. 1t may be news to
Bartine that Coffin tried to allie him-
self with Newlands before he did
with him, but that gentleman had
been posted, declined his advan-
ces, and saved considerable by doing
so.

A member of the Brotherhood

A member of the Brotherhood of
Trainmen is quoted as saying that the
Brotherhood is not striking associ-
alton, and he adds: "There is no
clause in the constitution relating to
strikes. The primary object of the
Association is benevolent, assisting
the members when in trouble or dis
tress, such as sickness or death. If
there should be orders to strike in
this yard here, l would not 90
out. My family interests would tell
me to stay at my work, which would
be strike against starvation, and
that if the kind of strike / prefer
to engage in" Every man invited
to join in sympathy strike should
take that view of the matter; strike
on account of individual grievances,
such as insufficient pay or too long
hours. IS different matter, but fam
lily interests should surely be consid-
cred when strike is proposed out of
sympathy for any one.

in blowing down part of the house and
setting fire to the ruins. While the
blaze was at its fercest, Christie was
seen to emerge from under the door
and started to run, but was. ordered to
halt. He did not stop and was riddled
with bullets, mutilating him terribly
and knocking him down. He tried to
regain his feet, but another volley set
tied him. The officers then turned their
attention to the burning building
and discovered Charlie Hare trying
to escape. He was terribly burned, but

about the head and face. At the same
time he secured a sample case, which

The Steel Steamer Gilcher Foundered
Off the Manitous.
MILWAUKEE, Nov. Sit is now set
tied beyond question that the great gale
of Friday night, October %, caused the
loss of large steamer, with all on
board, by laundering near North Man
itou Island, Lake Michigan, and it
seems to be almost equally certain that
the craft in question was the fine steel
steamer w. II. Gilcher, owned by ]. c..
Gilchrist and others, of Cleveland.
The Gilcher was en- route to Milwaukee
with a cargo Of 5000 tons of coal. She
passed Mackinaw City at 2:20 P. NJ. Fri
day, and accordingly should have
reached her destination in twenty-four
hours at the outside, in ordinary wealth
er. But she has not made her appear
ance here, neither can anything be
learned of her whereabouts. Wreck
age, apparently from a steamer, was
passed through on Sunday by the
steamer Pawnee near North Manitou
Island, and reported at Frankfort,

JAMS LOSES HIS CASE.

Pennsylvania National Guard Officers Are
Aquitted-Justiy Punished.
PITTsBURG, Pa, Nov. 5.-The Jury in
the case of Private Iams, the National
Guardsman, who was triced up by the
thumbs at Homestead for crying "three
cheers for the man who shot Frick," re-
turned verdict to-day, acqultting the
officers who ordered the punishment.
The jury retired late yesterday, and at
IL o'clock this morning came into court
and returned a verdict of not guilty as
TO Doth charges, but that the defend
ants, Col. Hawkins and Col. Streator,
pay half the costs in the aggravated as
sault and battery case.
After the verdict had been rendered
Col. Braddock, counsel for the defense,
arose and said "In view of your
honor's charge we ask that such pOr-
ton of the verdict of the jury as places
the costs on the defendants be set
aside"
Make your motion in writing" said
Sudge Porter, land we will consider it.
Had the costs been placed on the de-
PENDANTS in the assault and battery
case" the Judge continued, 1--WE would
unhesitatingly have stricken that part
opinion as to what we will do, but it Is
proper that you file yours notion"
This motion was put In writing, as the
court suggested, and the court took the
motion but made no disposition OF 1t
except to order it filed.
It was announced that the Jury stood
ten for conviction and two for acquittal
until the charge Of the court, and when
they first took vote after GO
ing to their room, the vote was
eleven to one for acquittal.
This continued for several ballots,
and, finally the twelfth man was won
over. The fight was then on the costs,
and over this an agreement was almost
reached. 1t was over the costs in the
assault and battery case which caused
the jury to come into court early
this morning, and ask for further
instructions. TIE court told them
the costs could not be put upon the
defendants in the assault and battery
case, and they then returned. That 1t
was the intention to put the costs on
the defendants in both cases Is evident,
as the word county had been written
over the word defendants" In dispos-
ing of the costs.
The only attorney for the defendants
in court was Col Braddock, who eX-
pressed himself as we'll pleased, as be
felt certain the court would set aside
that portion of the verdict, putting the
costs on his clients. Neither the prose-
cutor nor his attorneys were in court,
but one of them said that alter
the charge of the court, they had reason
to feel satisfied with the crumbs they
got Around the court house the ver-
dict, except the imposition of the costs,
was generally approved.

BIG FIRE IN BROOKLYN.
Starting in p Paper Factory 1t Destroy
$3.50, 900 of Property

BROOKLYN, n. Y, Nov. "a fire
started shortly before o'clock this
evening in Hobbs paper factory on the
corner Of Irving Place and Columbia
Street, tivestOry brick building, which
was totally destroyed From there the
fire crossed Tiffany Place and caught
IN the factory of Walther & Co., wall
paper manufacturers, and completely
Quilted it. The flames then leaped to
Hicks Street, to the carpet factory of
Steeler q Deale, which was also de-
stroyed. The fire then spread to Nos.
II, III, 10, 49, and % and q Tiffany
Place. From the factory in Hicks Street
it extended TO Nos. 443 and 445 Hicks
Street, which are dwelling houses, and
were entirely consumed. 1t then ex-
tended to Columbia Street, where it first
started, and burned out Edward O'Con-
nor's saddle and harness factory at No.
l3I, also No. 129. The firemen
had number Of narrow escapes
from falling walls. The fire was a
hard one to fight, on account Of the high
wind which prevailed, and at one time
it became so threatening that in re-
Spouse to a call for assistance seven en-
eines and the fire boat were sent from
New York to assist IN subduing the
flames. The agent of the Sun Fire In
surance Company, of London, Eng,
who was on the scene shortly after the
fire had started, estimates the loss at
$3.50, 900, Hobbs x Co. are supposed to
be insured for 500, 200, and Walther
,S Co. for 81 500.

SECOND STRIKE ORDERED.
Labor Troubles at New Orleans Not Yet

Over.
New ORLEANS, La, Nov. AT late
hour last night the Amalgamated
Association ordered meeting of the
committees of the various labor organiza~
ton at 1870 o'clock to-day 10 order q
general strike, alleging that the mer-
chants and boss draymen have refused
to acknowledge the labor unions. On
the other hand, too, the merchants
claim that their laborers refused to re-
turn to work according to the agreement
entered into by the committees on the
Cd inst.
The council ordered a general strike
for tomorrow, but the community Is IN
hopes that the unions will not join.
SiXty-three unions consented to
go out in the first instance, be-
cause of the refusal to recognize
nnionism, the cardinal principle of
their organization. Since then the
merchants have conferred with them,
thus recognizing the unions, and arbi-
tration failed on other grounds. There
are members of the Amalgamated
Council who urged that the recognition
Of the merchants was a subterfuge, and
the failure to arbitrate was really q
denial of the union principles.
The council has. in fact, based its call
for general strike upon the failure to
recognize unionism, but the typo
graphical union and other older and
stronger bodies take different view
OF the situation, and hold meetings to-
day to consider the strike PROPOSE
ton. If they refuse TO GO out it
will complicate matters, SO the general
strike prsiect is somewhat indefinite al
though ordered. If the strike takes
place twill involve newspapers, electric
light, bakers, street cars, and ali the
other branches o. industry in the city,
and throw $4,000 men out of employ
