BIowholes in Castings.

New York, August 2O.-The
United States Government is pro-
ceeding against the members of the
great steel manufacturing firm known
as the Benjamin Atha and Hing
worth company of Newark, N. j.
The charge is conspiracy to defraud
the Government by furnishing cast
ings for the Navy Department tn,
contained blowholes, which were
plugged. President John Illingworth
and Secretary A. c. Denman of the
big steel company, were arrested to-
day and released on their own recog-
nitions in the sum of $1,000 for ap-
pearancs next Tuesday before
United States Commissic ners Ro-
maine in Jersey City. The charges
are similar to those against the Car
negie Steel Company in the matter
of steel plates.

A Warming to HOrsemen.

About thirty-five miles from here
on the Placerville road is a place
called Meyers Station.
At that point is a we'll of ice cold
water, SO cold that one can hardly
drink it and horse who comes in
from q warm drive is certain to be
taken with cramps in the stomach
and be laid up sick if it drinks the
water fresh from the we'll.
There is a trough near the we'll
supplied with spring water from the
mountains which is excellent water
for horses, being of the proper tenn
perature. 1t is supplied through a
pipe, but at times the pipe is out of
order and the trough empty. On
these occasions the traveller waters
his horses from the we'll always with
bad results.
The people at the station do not
seem to have enough sense to warn
people of the dangers of the we'll and
it is claimed that several horses have
died from big draughts of the icy
water. A small sign warning the
traveller of the danger ard telling
him to let the water stand in the
sun few minutes would save a great
deal of trouble,

The Strike Commission.

Chicago. Aug. 2O.-E. V. Debs
was on the witness stand before the
Commission today. In answer to a
question he said:
81 found that all of the men
were working for the Pullman Com
pany at wages upon which they could
not live. l found that salaries had
been cut time and again, until skilled
mechanics were working their lives
away for wages not sufficient for day
laborers; that the town of Pullman
was SO schemed that every penny the
workingman made found its way
back to the Company, In fact L
found the Workingmen of Pullman in
a pitiable condition and determined
to do all in my power as President of
the A. r. U. to improve the condi-
ton of those men. The strike fol-
lowed, ordered by the men them
selves. Then came the boycott. or
dsred by duly elected delegates to
our convention, and then followed
the railroad strikes, ordered by va
rious local unions, each of which had
a grievance of its own.
The Strike Commissioners have
notified George M. Pullman to ap-
pear and testify and will also call
for several members of the General
Managers Association,

Owing to the dates heretofore

Concert Of Electricity and Music

The concert last night was well at
tended and gave much satisfaction.
Signors Bistolfi and Montonelli have
just concluded an engage ment at the
Orpheum Theater. San Francisco,
and have appeared at several of the
largest receptions held in the city
during the Mldwinter Fair. Signor
Montonelli is master of the mando-
lin and has invented an electrical
system connecting his mandolin by
innumerable small wires to an organ
that has a pedal bass attachment AMI
gives power nearly equal to a pipe
organ. As he presses the metallic
strings of the mandolin on the finger
board, the electric current between
the mandolin and organ is complete
and both instruments answer to the
touch and not only is the melody dis
tinct, but the harmony produced is
magnificent.
Signor Bostolfi is ar artist and a
master on the guitar. His lnstru-
ment, however, is an invention of his
own, not only having the strings,
fret board, ETC., of the guitar, but an
additional neck and set of brass
strings similar to harp. He is a
splendid performer on this instru.
ment. He also has q flute attach,
ment to the guitar, on which he per
forms e1quisitely.
They will appear again this even
ing with complete change of pro-
gramme.

TOwed Her In.

A few weeks ago q very fat woman
who was stopping at McKinneys'
went out fishing and had a boatman
to row her to the snag.
She got a big trout on the end of
the line and became so excited that
she fell overheard. She made an
attempt to climb back over the side
of the boat but the old fisherman
begged her to desist as her weight
would surely upset the boat. After
a parlsy she finally consented to al
low a rope passed about her waist
and after this was done he lowed her

PITTSBURGH, Pa, April 3O.-A meet
ing of the coal operators of the Pitts
burgh district will likely be held in a
day or two to discuss the situation and
present their side ct the case to the
miners officials.
Col w. p. Rend, who has been in
Pittsburgh several days, and talked
with most of the operators, said Sun
day night: ''Ihe operators in all the
leading mining states are wiling tc
try to make n settlement of some sort,
but some of the Indiana and Illinois
opera tors have refused to attend any
meeting"
The operators generally, Col Rend
said, are not opposed to conference,
but those who are will stand in the
way of a general settlement, and if the
miners hold to the position they have
assumed, the suspension is likely tc
last indefinitely
The miners officials stated Sunday
night that they confidently expected
to hear from the operators on the mat
ter of wage adjustment before the
close of the week.
Part of the pudding department o.
Jones & Laughlan's mill, the Sligo
mill, Singer, Nimick & Co., and prob

1851 The clerks in the redemption de-
partment were at sea Friday when a
consignment of $3.50 in the half cents,
100000 of the coins, was received from
Connecticut bank for redemption.
AS the half cent weighed S4
grains, 1860 of them weighed
1,549 pounds. 1t turned out that an old
farmer in Connecticut boarded S., ZOO
and buried it in an arbor. His eNecu-
tors found the treasure the other day,
and the United States treasury depart'
ment is to be asked to redeem the half
cents which formed a part of it Visi-
tors at the sub-treasury helped to re-
deem them Friday to the extent of a
cents worth piece. The market value
of the half cent as curio is likely to
be depressed by the unexpected large
visible supply.
