grand chief OF the Brotherhood of Lo-
comotive Engineers, arrived this even
ing from Cleveland. He and Chairman
Clark had long interview, in which
the latter outlined the work in hand
and plans for the future conduct OF the
Lehigh valley strike. Arthur said;
"The work of my representative. Mr..
Young, has been satisfactory to me in
this fight and will in no wise interfere
with his plans. He 10 simply able to
conduct the affairs OF the engineers in
this question"
"Will you seek an audience with Pres
dent Wilbur"
"No; the men who had a right to
such an audience have been refused.
will certainly not attempt to see him.
will be in the east for short time
and if he desires to see me he will hsve
to send word to that effect"
Arthur refused at this time to further
discuss the strike situation. Young has
left Bethlehem and will meet him here
tonight.
The Lehigh Valley has issued q notice
in which is offered a reward for the
arrest and conviction of the men who
cut the freight train at White Haven.
The issuance of such a notice had the
effect Of making Chairman Clark very
angry. He said the company should
be certain that the train had been 30
cut before its officials made such grave
charges.
Chief Arthur will leave tomorrow
morning for Wilkesbarre, from which
point the strike will hereafter be CON
Quoted. Clark confirms the report that
| q conferences between the Jersey Gen.
tral and Lehigh Valley grievance com.
mittees will be held in Bethlehem to-
| morrow, when another effort will be
made to have President Wilbur receive
the strikers committee, failing in
which strike may be ordered on the

AFFAIRS IN COSTA nioA.
Tho Kearsarge's Presence the Subject ST
Much Comment.

Much Comment.
New York, Dec. 3d. TheWold's spe-
cial from San Jose says: The arrival of
the cruiser San Francisco in Costa Rican
waters has caused no little comment
and superinduces the belief that the
United States 10 interested in the pres
ent political agitation here. Since the
visit of the Kearsarge in 1875 and the
Atlanta in October, there have been no
United States war vessels in the Allan
tic ports of Costa Rics. Hence the con-
clusion that Mr.. Cleveland ia more in
timately acquainted with affairs than
appears on the surface. The political
situation is critical. The dictatorship
OF Senior Rodriguez is likely to produce
a revolution which, added to the already
panicky condition of finances. imperils
the welfare not only of the natives but
of foreign residents.

Hoover Greek Notes.
THE SILVER LEAF.

J. S. O'Dell, of Hoover creek, came
up Wednesday stating that work had
ceased on the Silver Leaf on account of
the heavy flow of water. The tunnel is
in 1870 feet in hard formation such as
needs no timbering. There has been
but little change in the character of the
ore, a sample taken recently containing
small particles of native copper and car
rying some silver. The property is evil
IDENTIFY turning out for the better and as
sooon as the spring rains have let up he
expects to continue development.
Samuel Derr is doing representing
on the Susquchanna, the Magma Charta,
and the Great Hesperus. The interest
in Hoover creek property Is SC increas-
ing that a mint of development will be
done there this year. These claims lie
near the head of the creek.
An attempt will be made this year to
put in a county road to this district and
certainly a wiser move could not be
proposed.

Gun Club Notes.

In the Gun Club shoot of Sunday
Peter MCGOWAN carried off the button
by a score of twenty out of TWEEN
ty five. The rapid firing system
is used and the boys are binding them
selves stictly to the National Associa-
ton rules.
Geo. Gum, S. L. Crane and Fred
Sprague hunted MCGOWAN pretty closely
in the prize contest, and in the Sweep
stakes shoots, before and after, carried off
the palm once each. Crane distinguish
ed himself by breaking ten straights in
the rapid firing system. c. A. Mclean
tied with Gum in the prize shoot each
holding second place, and breaking II
out of 20.
The referee thinks Chace broke two
birds in the afternoon but is not posi-
tive. In a way he made the cleanest
score of all. But he is new man and
complains that the saucers went too
quick.
Shaw and Deichert tied in the prize
shoot holding fourth place. All the
boys show improvement and the interest
is lively for the final possession of the
button. The next shoot will be to-
morrow.
P. E. Nc Gowan is the happy recipient
of a fine large photo of all the leading
shooters of the United States. The

serves justly to be proud of.
