DISPENSARlES CLOSED.
TiIlman Has Big Stock of Liquor Left on
 Hand.

COLUMBIA, S. C., April 21.-"Every dis penSary ill the state has received orders to close immediately" was the interesting statement given to the press by Attorney General Buchanan. He is eX officio mem- Der of the state board of control, and he further stated that the board would meet today and issue checks to all creditors
 The employees of the state dispensary in this city were paid off, and the big bar room was shut up. General Buchanan said it was the purpose of the administra- tiOn to receive the supreme courts de cision as a suspension of the dispensaries and that in his opinion it allowed the un- restricted sale of liquor He will in few days bring a test case to decide whether the court means prohibition or the un- licensed sale of liquor to obtain, and if the former Governor Tillman was at once to apply to the legislature for power to main tain force of POO constables to see that the law is not violated.
 At any rate he thought that an extra ses- sion would be called in order to arrange for disposing of the stock of liquor now on hand. Many lawyers think that the mat ter will result in practical prohibition. The liquor men are rather at sea as to whether they can legally sell liquor. There are dozens of places all over this city where intoXicants are flowing like water.

STRIKE BEGINS TODAY.
Three Thousand Coal Mines Will Be IdI
 by Tnninht.


 PITTsBURG, April 21.-Today at noon the great coal strike which has been pending for several months will be inaugurated President John Mcbride of the United Mine Workers estimates that 200 900 men will be engaged. Secretary Treasurer Pat rick Mcbride is quoted as placing the mum, Der to be engaged at 100000 The tele graphic reports indicate that the mum ber will be between those two extremes.
 The strike will be confined to the bitumi- nous coal region of the United States In this there are g districts organized, four being in Pennsylvania. The other dis. tricts are Washington, Wyoming, Colo rado, Indian Territory, Missouri, Kansas, Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. \ Massillon operator says that 5000 coal mines in the United States will be abandoned.
 In the Pittsburg district there are about 120 mines and fully 30 more ill the Clear field or mountain district. These two dis tricts have about 30,000 miners.
 That the operators in this and the other Ohio districts believe the strike will as sume great proportions has been shown by the starting during the past week of mines which have long been idle. In the fever ish hurry to get out coal even convicts are being used for the purpose, and as many men are being put to work as can be se- cured. They have not been formally noti- fled of the strike, but are aware that it is coming. They have not decided what ac- tion to take in the matter
 Manufacturers and foundry owners are greatly alarmed and do not credit assur- ances from operators that the strike will be of short duration, and therefore they are securing all the coal they can.
 It is conceded that strike of two weeks will cause shortage which may cause a closing down of their works. It will also cause an advance of coal, and they are lay ing in quantities now, so that the coal dealers have all the orders they can attend to. Altogether no impending strike for years has caused so much general interest and anxiety as this one

BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

l Lang & Phelan have sold for Mrs | Michael Walsh, her farm of S5 acres in Wolcott, to Thomas and Annie Done.
 Lang x Phelan have also sold the three 1 family house of Thomas and Annie Done
 of Charles street to Mrs Michael Walsh. Kelly the baker will soon remove his | bake shop into the store next to R. 0. Par | trees drug store. This is done to meet the demand of a rapidly increasing trade | which makes it almost impossible for the clerks to attend to the large number of customers who find that Kelly means all that he says in his very interesting essays in the DEMOCRAT,
 The article in last nights DEMOCRAT regarding the nuisance in South Brooklyn has caused considerable discussion among the residents of this part of the town. It Is the unanimous opinion that something should be done with the place at once. Sanitary Inspector Moses said to-day that he could not see what could be done to abate the nuisance until sewers Were built in these streets. He says the place is not one bit worse now than it has been for the past six years. The place has given the health officers more trouble than any other part cf the city. MT Moses said that the residents of these streets have been asking that sewers be constructed there for several years, but have not been able to get any thing done in the matter. All this may be true, but we would respectfully ask where were those petitioners at the meeting of the sewer board Wednesday night when with one exception every property owner in the place spoke against putting in of sewers in these streets. A property owner in that part of the city said to-day that the DEMOCRAT deserved the thanks of every man in the city who believes in main taining the necessary sanitary precautions to insure public safety against the spread of epidemics and that the court of con- man council should proceed to build sewers in these streets as soon as possible, even though they found to necessary to go nrossaG Gc;ith h the work contrary to the ex- the whole neighborhoo96i0P .th. owner in ie the sewer board should wait unti1 Rii' VI -l people were satisfied before commencing the work the present board would never see the work completed.

No Test Wanted Now.

Senator Gray replied that he did not care to pose as political prophet, and the only way to settle the question was by popular vote, when Senator Gallinger sug- gested the advisability of postponing fur. ther action on the pending bill until it could be referred to the people in Novem- Der and asked Senator Gray if he would agree to this.
 II would not dare to go home" repIed Mir Gray, Eff did agree.''
 II shall be very much surprised" said Senator Aldrich, If great many senators on the opposite side do not soon come to the conclusion that the income tax is a very important feature of the tariff bill"
 "Is the senator opposed to the income taxi" asked MT. Gray.
 ''I am opposed to the income tax and every other feature of the tariff bill before the senate" replied MT. Aldrich.
 Senator Gray proposed an amendment to the rules designed to stop the practice of senators from reading their speeches and to prevent the reading of long extracts from books, papers and pamphlets as part of speeches. The object is to put an end to the consumption of time. A long debate can be precipitated upon the proposed rule if the committee should ever report it to the senate, as it was the case when propo- sition for closure was brought into the sen ate during the consideration of the cleo tions bill of the fifty-first congress.
 The proceedings in the house were.very uninteresting Practically no business was transacted. Under the rules, it being Fri day, the day was devoted to business on the private calendar. Three small unim- portant bills were passed, and the rest of the day was spent in the fruitless discus sion of bill to settle some Tennessee war claims against the government amounting to S22, 900. It was finally ended when Mr. Enloe made the point of no quorum on a motion to recommit the bill. The evening session was devoted to pension business.

HAWLEY SCORED ALLEN
Called the Nebraska Senators
 Speech Anarchistic.
SPICY EXCHANGE OF TARIFF VIEWS

| Senator McPhersOn Denies That Democrats Speeches Made-AIr. Taylor Not to Be Confirmed.
 WASHINGTON, April 2l.-The senate pro Ceedings were surfeited with events of in- terest, the first being the reply of Senator Hawley to the speech of Senator Allen on | Coxey's army of the commonweal. Sena- | tor Hawley was vigorous in his remarks and took occasion to defend the dignity of the senate and asserted that the speech made by Senator Allen was more fitted to a meeting of anarchists than the senate of the United States. Mir. Hawley was lis tened to with attention, and the Nebraska senator was evidently anxious to reply, but was cut off on account of time. Senator Hawley said that it was mat ter of common sense that the behavior of multitudes around the capitol should be carefully guarded by laws and rules and by sufficient number of police, and in cases of necessity by the military, to the end that the constitution and laws and rules of the senate should be observed in every inch of ground and every second of time.
 Hawley Replies to Allen.
 He was also pained to hear the senator from Nebraska (Mr. Allen) refer to the or ganiZed militia of the District of Columbia in the style and manner in which he did The militia was a credit to the govern ment, and it was thought wise that in stead of being dependent on the regular military to have troops of citizens.
 Senator Allen had also referred to "a per son named Ordway." Senator Hawley said he took great pleasure in bearing tes timony to the gallantry, courage and high personal character of General Ordway, commander of the District militia. It was quite ridiculous to represent him as mob iliZing the militia at the District limits with the purpose of clubbing the mem bers of the organization of unemployed over the head or thrusting the bayonets through them. He ventured to say that General Ordway has given more study to the ques- tion than the senator from Nebraska, and not one step would be taken by him except at the command of the civil power.
 These men who were coming here did not represent the general views of the American people. They were not coming with the intention of prostrating them selves at the feet of congress, but to inn press them by their presence.
 In conclusion Mir. Hawley said there were many other things in the remarkable speech of Mir. Allen which should be re- futed, but he did not propose to do it. "I am sorry to say" he said, but I feel bound to say it, that the speech of the senator from Nebraska was such as would be received with applause by gang of anarchists, and it would not require mi croscope to discover in it the microbes and bacilli of anarchism."
