e,s STRIKE IN PENNSYLVANIA.
Coke Workers to the the Number of
10000 Called Out.-violence
tnaupuruted


Ten thousand coke workers In the Union
town district struck on the End.
From the outset the strike was turbulent,
with tendency to open defiance OF law. 1t
grew steadily worse and there were more
serious outbreaks. The men of the Oliver
works left l, 500 tons of coke burning up in
the ovens. The company then, to save the
property, attempted TO put some men at work
drawing the coke, when the strikers set on
them with stones and clubs, driving them
from the grounds. In the melee several men
we're badly hurt
The greatest outbreak was at the famous
Hill Farm mines. About 400 foreigners from
Morreil and Weller, OF the Cambria works,
armed themselves with guns and revolvcrs
and clubs and started TO drive out the men
from the plants. They first visited the Hum
phrey works, and, finding the men at work,
drove them away under the muzzles of pistols.
They then visited the Anchor works. After
all tho men had been driven away, the rioters
began firing the shanties at Hill Farm, but
desisted at the frantic entreaties of the wo-
men and children.
The situation throughout the entire region
at the close of the second days strike of the
miners and coke workers Is very alarming
and 1t looks as II bloodshed and destruction
OF property will only be ayer,ed by resort to
the military power of the state AS In 1891
the strikers have been receiving food sup
plies from the company stores which was cut
of from them Tuesday. The great horde Of
foreigners require food and have not the
means 10 obtain 1t. The only way to secure
It Is by sacking the company's stores, and to
do this they must oyerpower deputy sheriGs
who are standing guard with Wiucbesters.
Operators In the region are very apprehens!yc
and fear the strikers will destroy property in
every section of the region.
More serious rioting followed on Wednes-
day. mob Of striker. attacked the David
con works at Connclsville When ordered to
keep of the premises they advanced and we're
fired upon. The mob returned the Ere and
charged the deputies, driving them from the
works. Chief Engineer Paddock of the FrIck
company was shot IN the back of the head
and the strikers beat him and crushed his
head with stones and threw bis body from a
upple window TO the ovens forty feet below.
They attempted to fire the upplc, but left
when they saw the deputies returning Nth a
large force from Conbelsylllc. The pursuing
party shot and killed two Of the strikers.
About ninety OF them were arrested and
taken to Connelsviile. There was great dif-
heuiIy In preventing lyuching.

a WIDOWS BIG SURPRISE.
Her First Husband Returned just in
Time to Prevent Her Marriage.

Time to Prevent Her Marriage.
The pension department Of Geor-
gia furnished combination Rip
Van Winkle and Enoch Arden story
when Gilbert Hanson made applica
tion for pension, says the Pittsburg
Dispatch. Gilbert disappeared thir-
ty years ago, being left for dead up
on the field at Petersburg He has
been sleeping his thirty years sleep
in Pittsburg and he returned to
Georgia just in time to prevent him
self from enacting the role of Enoch
Arden.
Last year one OF the Confederate
widows of the state who drew 800
from the state fund was Mrs. Perme-
liza Hanson of Carroll county. A
short time ago the sonin-law OF Mrs
Hanson walked into the office of
Judge Brown of Carroll county and
said: well, jedge, / reckon we II
lose the pension. now that the old
mans turned up" and on the Judge
questioning him the romantic story
of Gilbert Hanson's disappearance
and temperance came out
Hanson lived in Macon county.
Ala, when the war broke out and
was one OF the first to volunteer as
private in Company +, of the Tbir-
tecnth Alabama regiment He was a
good soldier and escaped injury un-
til the battle OF Petersburg, when he
received what was supposed to be
his death wound. The papers upon
which Mrs Hanson was granted a
lng f,,n nd
explicit establishing beyond a rea-
sonable doubt the death of her hus-
band on the field at Petersburg.
According to the affidavits OF the
captain and members OF his company.
he fell in that battle and it was be-
lioved he died in the hospital. as he
was never heard of again. The other
day Hanson, whose home is in the
country. walked into the office OF
the ordinary and explained his alb
sence. AS the family would by his
he called to see il he could not him
self draw n pension under the law.
II seems that the loss OF pension was
the fact foremost in the minds OF
members of the family, and that on
account OF it this modern Rip Van
Wrinkle had not received any too
cordial welcome. He found that
he could not get the pension, though
he bears the evidences OF hard usage
during his thirty years absence.
Where have you been during all
these years" asked the Judge.
Well he said. Il was pretty
badly wounded at Petersburg. and it
took me good while to get over it,
and when / did ! drifted TO Pitts
burg, Pa. and l have been there
ever since.
why didn't you come home?'
Il was too poor. | didn't have
any money"
why didn't you write homer
IL didn't know where the post
Office was, and didn't have anybody
TO write for lnc.
Hanson has been working as a da y
laborer in ana around Pittsburg for
these last thirty years Finally he
saved enough money to get back tc
the South, and. learning that his
wife had moved from her old home
20 that of her parents in Carroll
county. he made his way there. His
neighbors say that his return was
timely. as his widow had serious in
tentions of marrying a neighboring 9
widower, and cnly the husbands re
turn prevented second marriage a:
soon as this years pension none,
was secured.

what United States CONSUL Connolly
Says on the Subject.

what United States CONSUL Connolly
Says on the Subject.
BY RALPH E. HoYT.
A few weeks ago an article OF mine on
Taxation in New Zealand appeared in
Sunday edition of the HERALD. In
that article quoted freely from the off,
cial report of United States Con ,ul John
d. Connolly, q document which has
been extensively read and commented
on throughout the United States.
Though Mr.. Connolly is not SINGLE
taxsr, as he distinctly stated in his re-
port, he presented many strong points
in favor of the new system OF taxation
which, inside of three years, has wrought
a wonderful improvement in the indus
trial condition of New Zealand. The
few adverse statements in his report,
however, have been copied into numer-
Gus pspsrs in way calculated to convey
the impression that the partial applica-
ton of the single tax in New Zealand
was in the main q detriment to that
colony-which is the opposite OF the
actual facts in the case. And now comes
Mr.. Connolly in letter to the editor OF
the Single Tax Courier ct st. Louis, IN
which the writer expresses himself in
unequivocal language. The letter is
dated at Auckland, New Zealand, April
Is. 1894. Mr.. Connolly says:
There are a large number OF single
takers in this county who are constantly
advocating the single tax as psnacea
for many OF the evils this country is suf-
fering from. l may add that am not
wholly converted to the theory, but
am, believe, rapidly approaching that
stage when l must in justice admit that
the principle of the single tax is not
only feasible and practicable, but that
it is daily forcing itself within the range
of practical politics as just and eco.
nomic method of taxation. l am forced
to this conclusion in consequence of the
experience l have gained here OF it's
practical working. although it 10 only
enforced to a limited extent"
