A SHORTAGE OF COAL
May Compel Pennsylvania Manufac-
turers to Close Down.
The Great Northern Strike Only 200
Miles of tho Road Now i'm Opera
ton.

PITTsBURG, April 1s-Mass meetings OF
niners are being held to line up the dig
gers on the Pennsylvania railroad for the
much-talked-of general strike. The EN-
ployes Of the New York aud Cleveland
Gas Coal company are being urged 60 re-
consider their acceptance OF reduction,
and 10 strike with the other miners next
Saturday. The organizers will visit pits
along the Baltimore and Ohio road. The
Yough slope diggers have already an
nounced their intention OF striking. but
the leaders want To keep up their spirits
by some speeches.
The operators still preserve an attitude
of entire indifference, and claim they
don't care whether the men strike or not.
ID. w. Van Eman Of the Pittsburg and
Chicago Gas Coal company says strike
will relieve the operators from the neces-
sity disappearing miners who are idle.
The miners believe that this indiher-
ence is caused by a belief among many
operators thai the men will not strike. OF
Mt least in such numbers as would lend
force to the fight. They say they VIII
surprise the operators this time by the
magnitude and length of the strike.
Meanwhile alarm Is growing among
confidence of the operators, but rather
apprehend that two weeks from now they
will be compelled TO close. AS fully two
thirds of the mills, foundries. machine
shops and other manufacturing estab-
lishments in Pittsburg now use coal. a
fuel famine would result in the shutting
down OF valuable plants and the enforced
idleness of many thousands of men.
GfrfL
ST. PAUL, April lS.-rhe end of the
fourth day since the American Railway
union declared strike on the Great
Northern finds the strike extended over
all the lines OF the company, except a
short distance from this city. and OF the
4495 miles of the system not over 200
miles are in operation.
This has been accomplished thus far
without anything threatening bloodshed,
and the men say there is no danger OF
any trouble. They are determined. how
ever and will allow no trains TO be made
up or to be moved. The last part Of the
system TO be affected by the strike is
eastern Minnesota. The men on this
branch line are restless and want TO
strike.
There is an unconfirmed report that the
looking TO conference for settling the
trouble. but the officials deny such a re-
port
Arthur. Morrissey and several chairman
of the Brotherhood's committees decided
not to recognize the American Railway
union In any way. The brotherhood men
who go out with the new organization
know that they must leave their old or
ganizations.
A circular of instructions will be issued
to the Brotherhood men, urging them, If
they have any grievance or desire any
changes, 20 make their wants known
through the usual channel, and con
ference with Mr. Hill will be secured.
They are receiving advices from the vari
Gus divisions, and while some individuals
have gone out in the American Railroad
union strike it has been under Brother
hood leaders.

FAMILY FEUD
Came Near Being Settled in a
Law Firms Office.

INDIANAPOLIS, April 18.-fn the law
office of Harrison, Miller e. Elan there
was an exciting shooting affrsy. Ex-
President Harris on and ex-Attorney Gen.
eral Miller are the senior memb bers Of the
firm. A conference had been arranged
between William B. Copeland and Will
lam II. Brunin0. rival litigants of Madi-
son, aud their attorneys at the Office.
Bruning, his attorney. A. G. Harris, and
Fred Winter, a member OF the law firm,
were already in the room when Copeland
came in and, without saying a word,
drew revolver and began shooting at
Bruning.
The first two shots struck Mr.. Harris in
the left arm, and the third struck Brun-
ing in the cheek, inhicting very danger
Gus wound. Mr.. Miller ran into the room
and attempted to seize Copeland. The
latter, maddened by the interference,
tried to shoot the ex-attorney general, but
was prevented. In the meantime, how
ever, he had used the weapon as club.
and had beaten Bruning frightfully
about the head and face. Men in the ad-
joining Offices rushed in and prevented
further shooting.
Copeland was arrested. He is an ex-
Der Oh tne II uos
dangerously wounded. Bruning will
probably recover. Several suits are pend
ing between him and Copeland, and very
bitter feeling exists.
Litigants Are Brothers-In-Law.
There ara three suits pending in the
United States court, in which Clara
Copeland is plaintiff and William Ii.
Bruning defendant. The same question
is involved in all of the suits-the division
OF the estate of John 4. Bruning. the
father of Clara Copeland and William IL
Bruning. The estate is very large.
The relations between the litigants
were that of brothers in-law. Copeland
married Bruning's sister in 1855 while he
was member of the legislature. The
family were opposed to his marriage.
Bad blood has resulted from the suits.

Copeland and Miller, Winter & Elan at

case is i'm chancery at present.
Mrs. Copeland arrived in the city this
afternoon and spent the entire evening
trying TO secure bonds for her husband.
She will get him out today. She con-
firmed her husbands story that the cause
of the attack was the fact that only that
morning she had told her husband that
years ago her brother had attempted Ia
assault her

MONDAY, MAY I, 1894.

There will be the best stock show
ever seen in the Southwest at the
San Antonio Jockey club grounds
in the fall. This is the beginning
of yearly stock show that will at
tract stockmen particularly and the
lovers of fine cattle as we'll from all
over the United States and Mexico.
Side by side with this there should
be established an agricultural eX-
hibit and a textile fabric display.
AS has been again and again point
ed out there is every facility for
doing this at little cost to San An
tonic. The room for all necessary
buildings is already secured on the
Jockey club grounds and would
cost nothing. The stalls for cattle,
sheep, swine, goats, horses, poultry
houses and all that is needed to
make a perfect stock show could
be erected across the ditch, which
would afford ample facilities for
water for all purposes. These stalls
would be within a minutes walk
of the grand stand, or of the textile
fabric building, and the land for
them can be leased for nominal
sum. Everything is ready for the
successful organization of a Fair
association that will bring thous.
ands to this city every fall and
prove a source of benefit to every
Southwestern industry.
